 AIINT RETI'Y


 Aunt Betty Sanders was a maiden lady, tall, gaunt and shambllng in her figure, with gfisly locks, which she eve " morning curled carefully with a hot fork, and a face that looked as if she were san honest woman like to be- There is no accounting for human yani- ty-it will feed on lighter food than the cameiion, and one can see through t as easily as they can see though the ema- ciated man. Aunt Betty never received ii compliment in her life; but as her neighbor, Captain Teazle said, it was obvious the old fool thought herself well to look upon, and altogctherextraordina- Iyagreeable.' Noiove was lost between .thls couple. for she was meddlesome, oifieious and prudish; and he was dog nautical, saucy and mischievous. Aunt Betty apartments were separated from hisonly by athin partition ;andmore than once when Captain Teazle had heard d distinct breathing behind his elbow chair, he had thrust the feathery end of his qail! through d knot-hole in the wall, and laughed loud and long, whena start and an exclamation from Aunt Betty be- trayed who was listening there. Astop was put to this game by the Captains using hot skewer instead of a feather. The old lady wore q handkerchief round her head for many days alter;and when ever the captain saw her, he asked in most provoking compassionate tonc-- swell, Betty, how is your ear-ache to- dayg The old lady would glare at him for a minute, and then spin roundin- dignantly on her high-heeled shoes, with a half grunt, half shriek, that made the old man laugh till tho house rang again. But Aunt Betty, though she never heard any thing but abuse of herself, could not live without listening; and when the summer evenings came, and the moon was out of the way, she would snugly ensconce herself behind the Cap tain's opendoor. The keen eye of her neighbor discovered what was going on;and youmay besure the ancientmaid- scn heard enough to cure her of her yan- ity and patience the rest of her life. But as abuse and indccency failed to drive the intruder of his premises, Capt. Teazle next tried plentiful shower of cold water. This had the desired ef- feet; Aunt Betty became as afraid oft the door-erack as she was of the knot-hole in the wall.
 About this time, the Captains bed ridden wife bade him farewell, and he became q widower. Notwithstanding the hot skewer and cold water, and nu- nerous other provocatiens, too unseem-. ly to be mentioned here, it is certain tt this event Aunt Betty ed her neigt Dor with kinder looks, and answered his greetingsin rnilder tone. Nay, she became convinced that his in- solent treatment of her had arisen en- tircly from deep love, which during his wife's lifetime had exaspcrated him with its utter hopelessness. T have been told,' said Betty, 3that lovers and crazy people always treat tllose, worst whom they like best; and setting aside any criminal predilection which the Captain may nave had for me, aiwaYs thought his upper story aiittie out of ofder.'
 This lis comforting belief was consider ably strengthened By the mischievous ~idgwer, who one day threw his arm

ating tor some time, autil utter about hours,
the Crow won all the arms, provisions and
clothes of the, Cheyenne; TO express il more
fully. the Cheyenne stood before him clothed
only as by nature al his birth. After stand
ing few moments in thought. he arrested
the Crow IN packing up his winnings by say
ing, he would stake his scalp. The Crow of
rseeagerly engaged again, thinking pro-
badly 1t was n cheap way to acquire such a
trophy; but fortune favored the brave, and
from that Instant the Chayenne commenced
winning. He continued until he had not on
ly won back all his own, but ALI the Grow had,
leaving hum as destitute al the Chayenne was
short time before He could now do no
less than his antagonist had done. The
Crows scalp was now at stake. Both were
anxious. aud both played cautiously. i 1t
would not do, the Grow lost his scalp, and
the Cheyenne proceeded very deliberately to
take it off. The operation was completed,
and the Crow was pronounced the greatest
brave in existence. 49,. s
, After some little conversations, prasing
each other, (all by signs) they separated, un-
der the promise ofagain playing should they
ever meet, at the same time assuring each o.
ither, that they would strive to bring the
tribes, or parts of each, together 5.
In about three months, true to their pro-
mise, they met, the Indians conscnting TO
the meeting for the purpose of witnessing
such game. Again they played, lost and
won alternately for some time, both better
guarded as to their scalps than before, the
! one having none, and the other having a
large quantity of things to lose before his
would come into the play. Luck, however,
settled down in favor ofsthe Crow, and, as
! the scalp of the other became the stake, the
/ anxiety of the Chayennes showed itself nv tl,o
1 deepest and most silent attention; whilst, on
the other hand, murmur of encouragement
passed along the line of Crows for their
champion. The game drew to u close.-
Every eye was attentions Their very respi-
ration was checked, and the dogs themselves
hushed their barkings into low growls 1t was
but for an instant, for an exulting shout
soon announced the success ofthe Crow.
Fhe same operation that he had perform
cd on the Crow was submitted to by the
Cheyenne, and after little feastng, the two
tribes separated, for the fist and last time,
in peace. OAKLEY.
