Substitute for Song. Several years since.
ss some gentlemen were journeying towards Ma
cara. the fund Of stories and anecdotes treasured
in their memories, had become exhausted, when
!, desnerate effort was made to raise laugh at
the expense Of Major ]. One Of the gentlemen
whispered to his neighbor, that the Major could
sing many favori,e hunting songs, although rather
ayerse to il; that he would require much urgiogs
and probably deny that he could sing any songs.
The Major was forthwith invited to sing song
and Immediately, as was expected, asseryated his
inability TO comply. 81 told you so." said the
wag: II knew he would say so" The Major
persisted, but said he would give them substi-
,ute for a song, by relating his musical expert
ence, and If they insisted upon it, perhaps he
would sing afterwards He began:
When was boy, my father determined. one
Sunday, 10 send me to singing school. Never
having sung much, l thought would try little
before l went. So up went into the garnet
chamber, and after locking the door, went TO sing
ing as loud as could bawI, and as unsteady as
was able. After | had been at il some time, up
come father. SAM sys he, what are you doing
up there, making such noise on Sundays' No.
thin., sir, said |. When he was gone, went
on singing again, Presently, up came the old
gentleman again, Sam, you blockhead you,
what are you doing there, Sunday, tell you,
making such nosel' Nothing, sir Yes
YOU are, ynu blockhead, I've heard you sa,cins
boards this half hour Gentlemen conclud-
ed the Major, Il have had no occasion to sing
any since.'-BuAker Hill aurora.

INDIAN TORTCRES.

Mr.. Adair describes the mode of
torture practiseed BY the Southern In
dams.
"The victim was FIRST stripped quite
naked; pair Of bear noccasins put
OIL his feet, with the fur outside; and
a burning re-brand fastened little
over his head, to the pole or stake at
which he was tied Bundles Of dry
cane, o, tine splinters, were prepared
BY all who wished to have a part IN
the horrible sacrifice. The death
signal being given, the victims arms
are fas, pinioncd, and a strong grape
VINE is tied round his neck, to the top
Of the war-poie, allowing him to track
around, about fifteen yards. They
fix some tough clay on his head, to Sc
cure the scalph from the blazing TOT
ches. Unspeakable pleasure now fills
the exulting crowd Of spectators, and
the circle fills with the merciiess exc
cut.oners. The suffering warrior,
however, is not dismayed: with AN in
sulting manly voice he sings the war
song; and with gallant contempt he
tramples the rafting ground, with Peb
bles in it, to pieces, and outbraves
even death itself. The women make
furious onset with their burning
torches; his pain is soon SO excrucia'
ting, that he rushes out from the pole
With the fury Of the most savage beast
Of prey, and with the vine sweeps down
all before him, kicking, biting, and
trampling them, with the greatest des
pite. This circle immediately fills a
! gain, either with the same or l1est
persons; they attack him on every side
now he runs to the pole for shelter
but the flames pursue him." The re
suit may be easily imagined"
! The fort,tude with which the Ia
IdIans endure these horrid fortunes, u
no less remarkable than the EerocitJ
