The river nobly foams and flows,
The charm Of this enchanted ground
CHrLDE HARoLD.
Ma. EDIroa: Those Of your readers
who have travelled up the Mississippi,
must have noticed singular feature pre-
sented by the scenery above the mouth
OF the Ohio. Here the dull monotony
caused by long dense forests Of cotton
wood and low muddy banks, is relieved
by open groves, and lofty rocky cliffs
The bluffs are not continuous, but pre-
sent series OF hills or cliffs with inter-
yeaing ravines, along which little riyu-
lets flow pouring their limpid waters in
to the muddy stream.
The river here does not, as we might
expect, follow the course Of these hollows
and revincs, but runs at right angles with
them, crossing in the same manner the
bold and elevated hills forming in its
passage through them lofty and over
hanging cliffs. This appearance, SO diff
ferent from wha, nigh, be expected, if
the river had gradually worn its bed
through the rocks seem to give credence
to the Indian legend, which is as follows: !:
Far back in the vista OF time before
the white man intruded upon the hunting
grounds OF the Indian, the country above
the Ohio, was undivided, except by small
streams, and occupied by two powerful
and friendly tribes. The chief of each
tribe had an only son, alike the pride Of
their parents and Of the tribes. These
young chiefs had grown up as friends ;
and had often met with their wariers up
on the borders Of the hunting grounds, to
smoke together the pipe Of peace, aud to
mingle together in the wild dance OF the
savage.
They were both already noted war.
riors and each had already decked his
brow with the scalps Of many foe
But though in this respect alike, in many
others they differed Yatoba was Of a
huge and rough mould, with course aud
brutal cast Of features. His nature, too
was indicative and rengeiul; and hi!
manner was rough and savage.
Hawaki.ah, upon the contrary. was IN
deed a prince Of the forest, with tall, erec
figure, beautifully moulded limbs. anc
easy and agile steps while his fac'
marked by the passions Of the savage
revealed a generous and faithful heart.
But the friendship that had existed be
tween them from childhood was soon 4
be severed. The influence Of love wa
felt by the sons Of the forest. They look
: ed around upon nature, and learned It
lesson. The wolf, saw they, in his dar
glen had his fellow the proud eagle j
the pride Of his heart watched over tn
; erie Of his companion, and the cooin
dove with plaintVe melody mourned tn
absence Of his mate.
They read this lesson Of nature, an
their bosoms burned for fair one,
; share with them the fruits Of the chas.
and the honors Of war.

secretly resolved, that il she could not b..
his, she should not be anotker's. Moons
passed by, and still they smoked the pipe
Of peace--still together pursued the pant
ing deer, and Led the Indian maiden
through the grotesque figure of the dance.
Hawakitah and Wynona were happy,
nor dreamed Of the dark revenge that
Mrked beneath the false slniie that played
upon his lips whenever In their presence.
Every thing was now ready for the nup-
tial hour. Upon one Of those lowiy hills.
NJ the base al which now flows the deep
rolling tide Of the Mississippi, were col
lected many Of the fair and brave Of both
tribes, to witness the nuptial ceremony.
The moon in cloudless majesty, poured
upon hill and dale, and tree and flower
her silver light, and the grass with the
evening dew sparkled with thousand
gems.
1t was 4 wild and beautiful scene. -
Beneath proud oak, which had de6ed
the storms of ages, stood Wynona, and
her gray haired sire, waiting the approach
OF Hawakitah to claim her fair flower
A star is seen in the crowd, and with a
buoyant and elastic step he advanced to
meet his trembling bride. A death like
stiffness rested upon the crowd. But
where was Yatoba I! secretly he had pre-
pared his warriors for the event, and lay
concealed near by, ready to spring like a
tiger upon his unsuspecting victim.
Hawa xitah reached out his hand to re-
ceive from her father the hand Of his
loved one--a savage yell rent the air,
and the wild war-hoop broke upon the ST.
lence. Hawaki,ah II once OWNED the
cause, and all the fire OF his spirit was
aroused. With the rapidity of thought
he threw his arms around Wynoua aud
impressed upon her lips burning kiss
and then consigned her to the care Of heI
aged parent. Alta single bound he pla.
ccd himself in the front Of little band
who had gathered around, ready to die
with their chief, and advanced with un-
daunted step TO the unequal combat
Yatoba and his bloody band, anxious fol
revenge, rushed on, while their savage
wells resounded through the forest.
Wynona seeing her lover thus exposed
to certain death, sprang from the arms OF
her parent and threw herself upon his
bosom, Just as Yatoba was ready to dea
upon him the fatal blow. A momen
more and they must have fallen lifeiess
at his feet. But the Great Spirit, no
wishing to see so lovely and innocent a
creature thus perish, caused the earth tt
divide at their feet, aud carried Yatob'
and his bloody band back upon the re-
ceding earth, until a mighty channel wa:
formed through which flowed deep ane
. muddy stream.
Thus was saved the happy pair, ant
thus was formed the Father Of Waters.

Lachoke, In one OF his tales, gives the
following advice to a bride:
"ln thy first solitary hour, after the
ceremony, take the bridegroom and de-
mand solemn vow Of him, and give
hun vow in return. Promise one an
other sacredly, never, no, even in Jest, to
wrangte with each other; never to handy
words, or indulge in the least ill-humor
Never. | say, never wrangle in Jest
Putting OH an air OF ill-humor merely to
tease becomes earnest by practice. Mark
that! Next promise each other sincerely
and solemnly, never to have secret from
each other, under whatever pretext, with
what excuse ii Nigh, be- You must con-
tinually and every moment see clearly
into each others hearts Even when one
OF you have committed fault, wait not
an instant, but confess it ireely--let it
cost tears but confess it. And as you
keep nothing secret from each other, so,
on the contrary, preserve the privacies OF
your house, marriage state, and heart,
f,om father, mother, sister, brother, aunt,
and all the world. You two, with God 4
help build your own quiet world every
third or fourth you draw into it with you
will form a party, and stand between you
two. That should never be. Promise
this to each other, to renew the VOW al
each temptation. You will find your &C.
count in it. Your souls will grow as j,
were together, and at last will become as
one. All, if many young pair had, on
their wedding day, known this secret
how many marriages were happier than
