captured at the age of five, having lived en-
tirely according to the Indian mode, it is not
reasonable to suppose that she should re-
tain any recollection of the features of her
kindred, or many circumstances of her ear
ly history: nor is it to be marvelled at, that
after sixty years residence amongst the in
habitants of the woods, she should feel
reluctance in leaving her home and her fam
lily, to end the remnant of her days amongst
former relatives; who, however kind and
aflectionate, cannot be more dear to her than
her own offspring, Notwithstanding the dis
similarity, in the color Of the skin, may be
most striking The old lady is quite wealthy
comfortably situated with her son-in-aw,
Captain BrouriettG, with whom, as far as
we know, she lives very agreeably; and,
although we should be pleased to hear of
willingness on her part, and that of her
children, to return with Mr.. Slocum, yet
we should think it improper TO separate her
from her children, to whom she is strongly
attached. Mr.. Slocum informs us that
wilhelm Canada, forty years ago, with his
brother, they offered some traders the sum
of three hundred dollars, if they would only
give intelligence of Frances.
He also states, that his brother Joseph,
and sister, Mrs. Mary Town, will be h ere
in a few days--that he will await their arri-
val. Mr.. Slocum bears the appearance of
a gentleman of the first responsibility, and
in conversation, often alludes to the horri-
BILE scenes which transpired on the banks
of the Susquehanna, during the days of his
boyhood. He is now 53 years old, in ap-
parent good health, and returns his most
sincere gratitude to the citizens of the Up
per Wabash, and to Col. Geo. w. Ewing
and Mr.. j. 7. Miller, in particular, for the
interest which they have taken in restoring
the lost Frances to the family, and for their
kindness and hospitality in general.

How seldom is it that we meet with in
fidels among elderly men, whilst it not un-
frequently occurs that those who have not
enjoyed the advantages of reflection and ex-
perience are very apt TO indulge in sceptic-
ism. Whence can this arise, unless it be
from the fact that IN youth we have yet to
learn the fallibility of our judgment, while
in more advanced years the lessons of life
are so craven upon our minds, and prove so
clearly our dependence on a Higher Power,
that we are forced to admit our short sigh
tedness and dstrust the suggestions of our
own reason. We have often observed the
inclination of the young to treat with scorn
and endeavor to suppress the promphngs
of religious feeling, deeming it self de-
gradation to be subject even to Creator,
at the same time that they reject as un-
philosophical. forsooth, the inletences en-
forced pom them by the displays Of divine
wisdom by which they are surrounded.
This weakness, for such is the appellation
which belongs TO it, would be more pardon
able, if it were permitted TO rest in the bo-
SONS of the victims of it, but, where ever
opportunities occur, it is so fond of exhibit
ting itself to the admiration of ignorance,
that 1t becomes a source OF infinite EVIL, and
deserves the severest censure. If they,
who are so vain-glorious of their puny ac-
quirements as to induce themselves to be-
lieve that religious feeling is entirely the
result of prejudices springing from educa-
ti0n, would for an instant reflect upon the
unhappiness and discomfort which they
produce in society by the PRONUNCIATION of
their crude notions, we cannot help believ-
ing that they would refrain, at least, from
publishing them. What satisfaction, we
would ask, can it afford any one to unsettle
the belief which forms the leading and un-
failing source of comfort TO the poor mans
family, and furnishes restraints where in
its absence ignorance would open the door
to lawless Passon3 Let then the free-thn-
ker reflect and reconcile to himself if he
can, the satisfaction that will arise from an
ingenious argument that at most can only
serve to promote vice and wretchedness.
