Female Intrepidity.

When the war o! determination between
the Indians and Kentuckians was at its
heighth, those who inhabited the back parts
of the State of Kentucky were obliged to
have their houses built very strong, with
loopholes all around, and doors always
fastened, so as to repel any attack from the
Indians. While the owner of one of these
domestic fortresses was with his slaves, at
work on the plantation, negro who was
posted near to the house saw q party of
Indians approa ching. He Immediately ran
to the house, the foremost Indian after him.
The Indian was the Acetest and as the door
opened to admit the negro, they both jump
ed in together. The other Indians being
some distance behind, the door was instant
ly closed by the planters wife within, when
the Indian and negro grappled. Long
and hard was the struggle, for, as in the
case of Fitz james and Roderick Dhu, the
one was the strongest and the other more
expert, but strength this time was the vic =.
tor, for they fell, the Indian below; when
the negro, placing his knees on his breast,
and holding his hands, kept him in that
position, until the woman, seizing broad
axe, and taking the Indian by his long
hair. at one blow severed his head from his
body. The negro, then scling the guns,
fired them at the other Indians, which, as
fast as discharged, were loaded again by
the planters wife, until the party from the
field, hearing the firing, arrived, and the
Indians took to fight.

ORIGINAL SKETCH.
WRITTEN CoLrN.A pgMoc RAT.
THE PAINT ER'S CURSE,
BY KATE.

In the latter part of the year 1910, there
lived in what was then called Happy vsl-
ley, po'r inter, Spaniard by birth,
named Gons,lez.
1t was on very cold day in December
that was called to attend the dcath-bed Of
this very unfortunate man. As entered
his poory-furnished abode my eyes fell on
n magnificent painting which hung on the
wall. The picture was made to represent
n beautiful girl, perhaps eighteen years of
age, in the act ofplucking rosebud, but
large wasp, apparently passing suddenly
to prevent her from doing as she desired.
After l had been in the old mans apart
ment some time, turned our conversation
to the picture which had so much attracted
my attention on entering,
"Whom, may ask" said 1, twas that
beautiful painting made to represent, Con-
salez!
The old man heaved sigh, and turned
heavily in his weary couch.
"Perhaps," I continued, "you do moi
wish to inform me.".
"Yes, yes" he mutterea quickly, but in
very subducd tone, 81 will tell you
About one year ago that picture was painted
That young girl you observe there-is-
was-my only child. Very soon after that
was painted, some, villain-who, know
not-enticed her to leave me, and took her
God knows where. Oh, doctor, when she
left my house, prayed to Almighty God
to eiermalty curSc her! But, sir, could
see her once more before l die-that awfu
curse-I-I might retract. But tell me
do you know anything of her, that yor
asked so eagerlyl"
This account the old man gave me il
very broken sentences. l replied in tho
negative to his question, and promising t.
call the next day, left him.
returned to my Office, but my mind wa
wholly occupied by the painters story an(
the beautiful portrait.
The following morning l attended nj.
patient, and found him very slightly i'm
proved. Ibid not alludc to our conversation
on heprcvious afternoon, but promising t.
return soon, gave him some medicine
and left.
Ns
About midnight ] was called up to atten
person who had been wounded with

knife, and, following my Bulue, hurrlcu
down to o dance house situated about
where the "Bella Union" now stands. 1
found the wounded person t, be young
woman, and although the cut was severe it
was not dangerous. 1t appeared that it
had been inflicted by some drunken wretch
with whom she had refused to dance. l
attended the young woman for several
days regularly, until she was out of all
danger, and each visit l made I saw u
stronger resemblance to the picture at the
house of old Gonsalez. begged her to
tell me some Of her past history, and, ,you
can imagine my surprise, when she informed
me she was the daug ghter Of "Gonsalez, the
painter" Then, truly, had been attend
ing both father and daughter at the same
time.
In return for her confidence, informed
her that her father was alive, and in this
city, but was on his death.bcd, sinking fast,
and it would be impossible for him to live
more than two or three days more.
She entreatcd me to take her to see him,
which finally, consented to do. She
thanked me, and agreed to meet me next
morning at eleven o'clock.
According to her promise, Annette, (for
that was her namc,) met me on the Plaza,
and we proceeded to her fathers house,
We entered softly the front room, where I
left my companion, while 1 introduced the
subject to the dying man. l asked him
what he would DO, if he was allowed to see
his daus liter once more. He id he did
not know, he might pardon her."
Annette, hearing this, was unable to
remain longer in silence, and rushed into
the room.
The old man fairly Ieaps& up in his bed, ,
and gazcd wildly about. Then he stretched
out his arms as if to embrace his daughter !;
but as she approached, horrible vision
of the past seemed to pass over his mind,
and, fierccly repulsing her, he uttered On
awful curse, and fell bcli in his bed
corpse
X. #
About 6 week after this sad sccuc took
place, was called in haste to visit per-
son who had taken Poison. As we entered
the house a terrible prcsentiment struck
me, for it was the residence OF the erring
daughter. My mis9ivings were too soon
realized, for there lay the body of Annette
Gonsalez. Life was already extinct
The curse Of the father had indeed fallen
heavily upon the daughter.

The Stream Of life.

Life bears us on like the stream of a
mighty river. Our boat at first glides
swiftly down tie narrow channels, through
the playful murmurings of the little brook,
and along its grassy borders, trees shed
their blossoms over our young heads, and
the flowers and the brink seem to offer
themselves to our ycung hands, we are in
hope, aud grasp eagerly at the beauties
around us, but the stream hurrics us on,
and still our hands are empty, Our course
in youth and manhood is slong wider
and deeper food, and amid objects more
striking and magnificent. We are ANNA
ted by the moving picture Of enjoyment
and industry passing before us; we are
excited by short-livcd success, depressed
and rendered miserable by short lived dis
appointment but our energy and our de-
pendencc are both in vain. The stream
bears us on-our joys and gricfs are left
tehind us; We may be shipwrcckcd, but
cannot anchor; our voyage may be hasten
ed, but cannot be delayed whether rough
or smooth, the river hastens towards its
haven, the roaring of the waves is beneath
our keel, thcl land lessons from our eyes
the foods are lifted up around us, we take
our last leave of earth and its inhabitants
and of our future voyage, there is no wit
ness but the Infinite and Eternal.

I@r Dear Maggie.

She found the discipline of life
More than her heart could bear,
And so she turned her to the grave,
And sought for refuge there.
And now she lies with folded hands,
In an unbroken sleep;
With peaceful heart, and fearless eye,
Where none can make her weep.

The Lords PraYer.

know that my mother taught 1t me, for
linked with each petition is her presence
and her love. But l do not remember
when, cannot recall the time | knew it
not. With my first best memories it has
place My mother and "our Father which
art in Heaven" have watched over me to-
gcther with protecting care, united in their
love. And though | have learned to know
that my Saviour's love availoth more for
me than mortal's can, yet still l feel my
mothers as true, as constant to bless, far
as its power extends, and those dear names
are linked together in my memory forever.
And how eau any child that has had the
love and the prayers of a mother, scorn
Saviours love, so like to hers, self.sacri-
ficing, yet, more than hers, all powerful
Thus it would seem that every heart sho1ld
be given to Christ. But olas, great as the
anomaly, every mother does not teach her
child to pray. All It's sad, yea, awful to
know it. But those who have mother
who teaches of "Our Father can never
show enough gratitude and obedience, both
to the one and the other; for earth, with
all its sunshine and its flowers, were but q
gloomy waste without the hope of heaven.
LOVE AND CHARITY.-There is much
vague talk in these latter days about love
and charity, Men profess to admire and
desire to see them increased, and yet hate
the principles which alone can produce
them. Let US stand fast in the old paths
We cannot have fruits and flowers without
roots. We cannot have love to God aud
man without faith in Christ, and without
regeneration. The way to spread true
love in the world, is to teach the atonemont
Of Christ and the work of the Holy Ghost,
TEARS AND LAUGHTER-God made
both tears and laughter, and both for kind
purposes; for as laughter enables mirth
and surprise to breathe freely, so tears
enable sorrow to vent itself patiently
Tears hinder sorrow from becoming de-
spair and madness, and laughter is one OF
the very privileges Of reason, being confined
to the human species.

Female HerOisnn,

Among the noteworthy incidents Of the
Montreal disaster, was the saving of her
two children by Mrs. Bloomfield, whose
husband is in the employ of the Grand
Trunk Company at Toronto, She held
to rope with one hand, keeping the head
ofone child above the water with the other,
and holding the other up by fastening her
teeth in its dress. So heavy was her load,
that two of her teeth gave way and were
lost; yet she still retained her hold, At
last a boat came towards her, and men
were screaming az around her to be taken
on board she could not scream, but m
seeing her situation, brought the boat to
.her telling them she needed ai& the most.
Thep her strength gave way, and she came
near drowning ere she could be lifted into
the boat. She is slight delicate woman
in appearance, and one wonders how she
was able to do 50 much.
