death; but although fully aware Of his SEN
tence, he seemed perfectly reckless of his ap-
preaching end. Indeed, he seemed rather TO
welcome death, as if he now had no object for
which to live. And the manifestation ofth;s
feeling induced priest who had visited him,
to think that the Indian still believed he had
taken the life of the White Fawn. He there
fore begged Miss June to visit his prison, to
assure him that she was living, andy way
of preparing his savage mind for the Chris
tan Influences which the good father sought
to have over the doomed man-to tender her
forgiveness for the cruel murder of her sister.
She accordingly visited his prison, and in his
native tongue, called him by name through
the bar of his cell. When he heard her voice
he sprang suddenly to his feet, as if he had
seen spectre from the spirit land. And when
he realized the fact that the object of mis- jeal-
Gus vengeance was still living, and that all
thought of vengeance was now hopeless, he
sank slowly to the floor of his cell, with his
face buried in the hollow Of his hands His
muscles became tight and rigid as iron bands
upon his limbs-the vessels upon his neck FL
ling with his boiling blood and throughout with
a motion like the twining ofserpeats- face
became llvid, and distorted with disappointed
rage-and he fell dead in fit of apoplexy
Many years after these tragicai events,
when her little prattlers gathered around the
knee of Mrs. June Sanders, she showed them
the painting of fair Indian girl which hung
upon the parlor wall, and told them the story
of the White Fawn.

A correspondent of the Scientific Amer
ican, writing from Bardstown, KY, says:
\ Mr.. John Csrothers, who has recently
died in this place, has left on hand many
new and curious articles as yet unfinished,
among which is an immense machine by
which he intended to make brick at the
rate of 5000 per hour, and the amount
of work already has amounted to over
$1,000, to have finished it would have
cost $4,000; in its success he had the full
lest confidence; there are also unfinished
machines for making sausages, cutting
lard, meat, &c Here is the native place,
and not two hundred feet from where we
stand, is the grave of the unfortunate
John Fitch, the first real inventor Of
steamboat navigation. Before Robert
Fulton was ever heard of, John Fitch
exhibited to wondering crowds minia-
ture steamboat which glided swiftly a
cross large pond in the vicinity of this
place. Poverty and the incredulity oi
his fellow citizens, have made him lose
that position among the great men of the
country which he so greatly deserved.
