TEE AFRICAN CHIEF.

Chained in the markelplace he stood,
y man of giant frame,
Amid the gathering multitude
That SHRINK to hear his name,--
All stern of look and strong of limb,
His dark eye on the ground -
And silently they gazed on him,
As on lion bound
Vainly, but well, that chief had fought.
He was captive now,
Yet pride, that fortune humbles not,
Was written on hls brow.
The scars his dark broad bosom wore
Showed warrior true and brave;
prince among his tribe before,
He could not be slave.
Then to his conqueror he spake-
"My bro her is king;
Undo this necklace from my neck,
And take this bracelet ring,
And send me where my brother reiens,
Aud = i'll fill thy hands
With store of ivory from the plains,
And gold dust from the sands.''
"Not for thy ivory nor thy gold
VIII unbnd th' chain;
That bloody hand shall never hold
The battle spear again.
A price thy nation never gave
Shall yet be paid for thee;
for lhOu SHAT De The christians slave,
In landa beyond the sea-"
Then wepi the warrior chief, and bade
70 shred his locks away;
And one by one, each heavy braid
Before the victor Law.
Thick were the plated locks, and long,
And defly hidden there
Shone many wedge of gold among
The dark and crlsped hair.
"Look, feast thy greedy eye with gold
Long kept for sorest need;
Take it-thou askest sums untold
And say that am freed.
Take NV wife, the long, long day
Weeps by the cocoa tree,
And nv Young children leave their play,
And ask in vain for me"
"ltake thy gold,-bu have made
Thy letters fasi and strong,
And ween hat b, the cucua shade
Thy wife will wait thee long,
Strong wssthc agony that shook
The captive's frame 10 hear,
And the proud meaning OF his ok
Was changed 70 mortal fear
His heart was broken--crazed his brain,-
At rnce hi, eye grew Wild,
lie struggled fercely With his chsin,
Whispered and wepi smiled;
Yet wore mt long those fatal bands,
Aud once, at shut Of d4y,
They drew him forth upon the sands,
1he foul hyena's prey.
