THE INDIAN Halter
DY JAMES HALL.

in the course ola Journey, which | late
ly took through Illinois, stopped one day
at a village for a few hours, and stepped
into a store to purchase some triAing article
OF which ! stood in need. Finding a num-
Der Of persons there, and being not unwil.
ling to while away a few minutes in con-
yersation, | leaned my back against the
counter, and addressed myself to a well
dressed farmer, who answered my enqui,
ries respecting the country with Intelligence
and cIyIlity.
While thus engaged, my attention was
drawn TO person who STOOD near. He
was a man who might have been 90 years
OF age. His height did not exceed the or
binary stature, and his person was rather
slender than otherwise; but there was some
thing in his features, which distinguished
him from common men. The expression
of his countenance was keen and daring
His forehead was elevated, his cheekbones
high, his lips small and compressed
while loug exposure to the climate had
tanned hls complexion to a deep olive.
The same cause seemed to have hardened
his skin and muscles, so as TO give him the
appearance ofa living Petrltactlon. There
was over all settled gloom-a kind of
forced composure, which indicated resig
nation, but not content. In his eye, there
was something peculiar, yet it was difficult
to tell in what, that peculiarly consisted.
1t was small grey orb, whose calm, bold,
direct, glance seemed to vouch, that It had
