power, whether of a mental, physical or me-
chanical character, which we all have felt and
which at some time, has commanded our adj
miration. For the same reason we cannot
avoid feeling an interest in man of strength,
though the blsntness of his nature may not
have been smoothed by education nor softened
by intercourse with the social world.
So thought Lovel, as he beheId the trapper
moving towards his cabin with his trophy of
victory upon his shoulder, breathing a little
harder perhaps than usual, but calm, and. un-
excited, as though he had finished an ordinary
work.
The young hunter spent several weeks with
Hooking, occasionally hunting with him and
often plying the canoe upon the beautiful
Cuyahoga, accompanied with Forestina. The
young people had become very fond of each
other-too fond for simple friends, and in a
short time their affections were no longer at
their disposal.
The trapper was not blind to the state of
affairs, and though he could not endure the
thought of separation from his adopted child,
yet an alliance with family so influential and
respectable as the Lovels was not to be slight
Cu' DSoluSs, ac Ills aSIudiLitdhSO iipSiiSO
with the young man, so did his esteem.
Lovel now felt it necessary to return, but
he left Forestina, his plighted bride. After a
tedious journey he arrived at one of the colo
nies, where he found an agent of her grand
fathers, who had been from settlement to set
tlement endeovoring to gain some Information
of his daughters child, who, with her aged
relative, were the last representatives OF q
proud and ancient family.
One year afterwards, Lovel crossed the
ocean with his beautiful bride. A few months
were spent in England, and then they made
| America their home. Near the mouth of the
Cuyahoga they chose a romantic site for a
| settlement, not far from the place where the
beautiful city of Cleveland is now located.
The visits of the old trapper were frequent,
| but nothing could induce him to permanently
| leave his cabin in the wilderness. His hercu-
lean strength and courage were so much ad-
mired by the red men of the forest that they
| gradually became his friends, and his influence
was so great among them, that he was enabled
| to protect many defenceless settler of Ohio
| who would otherwise have been the victims OF
! the merciless savage.

yesterday seated on the steps of the Custom
house bathed in tears, and sobbing violently,
having in his hand copy of the .4bemd Zuiting

CL EVE LAND HOOKING;
OR.
THE RAPPER OF THE CUTAHOGA
BIZ c. ". KENDALL.

Hooking, the trapper, Cleve Hooking, as
he was called by the neighboring hunters and
trappers-I say neighboring, for so he termed
them, although the nearest was moro than
twenty miles distant-was pursuing his way
through one of those wild forests of the now
fourishing state of Ohio, large portion of
whose trees have contributed their room for
cities and their substance to build them.
He was Virginian by birth, his father being
one ofthe early settlers of jamestown. At an
early age he had been apprenticed to black
smith, where his great strength and ingenuity
soon made him an useful artisan.
After becoming free from his employer, he
pursued the trade upon his own account for
several years. Suddenly his friends were sur
prised with the intelligence, that he had sold
his shop, and had gone, his former neighbOrs
knew not whittier; some whispered that it was
an affair of the heart, but the world is apt to
speak ill-naturedly of the absent.
At the time to which we refer he was about
ffty years of age, and had lived in the forest
for at least twenty-five years, where his prodi-
gious strength, his skill in wood-craft, and his
triumphant exploits with the Indians and wild
beasts, had for him name which the
oldest hunter might have envied.
His appearance was by no means remarka-
bic, nor did his dress, which was composed of
the skins Of the deer, differ widely from that
worn by the professed hunters of his time.
In stature he was rather short, with an i'm
snense chest, broad shoulders, and limbs ex-
ceedingly compact and sinewy, especially his
arms, which were long almost to deformity,
but when viewed physically, might be termed
perfect pyramids Of muscle and sinew. His
features, though plain, were by no means re.
S'nislve, and their expression was one of those
which gradually gains our liking by acquaint-
ance.
He had been unusually successful that morn
ing with his traps, and was bearing his spoils
to his cabin in excellent humor. Although in
the vicinity of Indians. many of whom had
plainly evinced a spirit of hostility, he did
not seek to disguise his trail, nor would his
appearance indicate that he was fearful of dam
ger.

Z A DREAM OF HEAVEN.
by EreEyE ST. cLAIR.


had a golden dream of heaven last night,
The star -gemmed canopy rolled away,
Cleft at its zenith, like two mighty scrolls,
Rich with emblazonry, and before mo
Lay the dazzling mysteries of heaven
The unknown land 1 saw Jehovah on
"The great white throne,'' his brow encircled by
hslorious crown of light before whose
Brillianey the consolidated gems of
Earthly diadems would pale like moonlight
In the morn and high above, the radiant
Bow of Emerald was hung, saw the
Angelic hosts of paradise, their golden
Tresses sporting on the pcrfumed winds that
Stir the leaves of Eden the bright stream of
Crystal waters floating on beneath the
spice-trces bending green, where the redeemed, in
Spotless garments, walk forevermore
Angels of light, upon their glancing wings,
Bidden of God, swept onward meteor
Like upon their mission and saw in
My sweet vision, that their countenances
We're brighter than the diamonds liquid
Blaze. or the first beamng of the Morning Star
And there were birds of gorgeous plumage perched
On every bough, winging DER the
Elysian fields their trackless way and
Flowers of gold and crimson, and the blue
Which paints the coudlcss skies on summer nights,
When starry eyes are keeping faithful watch
U, beautifc dream This not all,
Music arose. and on the bosom of
A breeze from heaven was waited from
The orchestra of God. down to my rapt,
Intoxicated ear heard the crash
OF choral harps. swept by the master hands
Of angel bards Il heard the glorious
Song of cherubim and seraphim-the
Noble anthem of Eternity-rise
EIultant, like incense rich, around the
Throne, until it died away amid the
Vast and echoing areades of heaven,
O, dream celestial. wilt thou come again?
Touch, gentle goddess of the dream land,
With thy magic finger my closed eyelids
And let mo dream my last night dream once more.
