be William and Lydia Wilson, formerly of Dunn

wandering some wears with the Indians, subject
ed to all kinds Of abuse, he ran away from them,
and ailcr rambling about, and seeking home
at Woonsocket, Mendon, and other places, he
found employment in linen factory at New
England Village, Mass After many interesting
adventures, he married and settled down, and
his carly history becoming somewhat known,
some kind friends made II public, and II reached
the eyes Of his parents lie was identified by
some marks upon his person, and the long lost
child found parental home.
An interesting narrative of his history and adj
ventures has been published, We arc informed,

claims of Hon. r. c. Winthrop, Of Boston, for
Speaker Of the L. S. House of Representatives,
and he Is commended for that Office by the Buff

Is well qualified for that place, and would gil il

like to know, why he opposed 50 strcnuously Mr.
