day Of the meeting Of the council, which was
then soon to be held, he would deliver himself
to atone for the life Of his son. The chief re-
ceived the information with evident qualification.
A few weeks passed away, the great lodge was
erected, and the council at length assembled.
The chief communicated the intelligence which
he had received from his sons murderer, and Il
was agreed that no business should be transacted
until Mickenock should appear The council
sat in silence until about twelve o'clock, when
suddenly the brave Mckenock bounded into the
midst Of the council, calmly surveyed the chiefs,
and sat down in silence in the centre of the
lodge; his wife and children Immediately fol-
lowed and formed circle round him; then TAX
ing out his flint he struck spark, and lighted
his pipe, and smoked it in silence the eyes Of
all the council and his little family were fixed in
tensely upon him. AT length SIickenock arose,
and addressing himself to the chief, said al
killed your son, he was a young brave, he did
mo no wrong, he was my friend. Idrank the fire
drink, the fire drink made me kill your son /:
MickenOck is very sorry, and deserves to die" i"
Then turning to the Oldest brother Of the deceased
he drew knife from his bosom. "There, said
Mickenock, q is the hnife that drank the hearts
blood Of your brother; take il, like brave man,
and ayengc your brothers death" This said,
MckenOck instantly laid bare his whole heart
The brother spat upon his hand, clenched his
knife with death-grasp, and drew up his arm.

arIcIkENocK THE nRAvE.

Ono afternoon, in the spring Of 1929, a young
Indian, named Mickenock, Of the Ottawa tribe,
on the eastern shore Of Lake Michigan. having
engaged too freely in tho use Of fire drink, com.
menced a quarrel with and finally stabbed to the
heart son Of one Of the chiefs. Knowing
that he must suffer by the hands Of some one Of
the family, whose relative he had killed, he i'm.
mediately collected his own family and fed into
the woods. The chief and his sons at once COM
mcnced search for the murderer; no pains nor
toll was spared to ferret. out the hiding place Of
the unfortunate and guilty MickenOek; but the
summer passed, the leaves began to fhll and no
trace could be foundof tho murderer. Almost in
despair, the old chief burning to revenge the
death Of his son, looked about for some relative
Of MickenOck, upon whom he could satisfy this
darling desire of the Indian heart; but no ono
could be found; all the family and blood relatives
Of MickcnOck were with him in his hiding place.
Despairing at length Of either finding his enc
my or avcnging himself upon any Of the blood
relations, the chief determined to avail himself
Of the privilege allowed by an Indian custom,
and to avcngc himself upon one Of the relatives
Of the wife Of the murderer. Mickenock, al
though elIectually concealed from the old chief,
was nevertheless conversant through some Of his
friends Of all that was transpiring in the chiefs
wigwam and 50 soon as he learned the chiefs

Of his wife's relatives, he Immediately sent in

The English papers publish the following
extract from Mr.. Rarey's pamphlet:
In order to obtain perfect obedience from
any horse, we must first have him fear US,
for our motto is, Fear, love, and obey; and
we must have the fulflmcnt in the fist two
before We can expect the latter. When you
have entered the stable, stand still, and let
your horse look at you a minute or two,
and as soon as he is settled in one place.
approach him slowly with both arms station
airy, your right hanging by your side, and
the left bent at the elbow, with your hand
projecting As you approach him. go not
too near his head or Group, so as to make
him move either forward or backward, thus
keeping your horse stationary; if he does
not move little either forward or backward,
step a little to the right or left very eau
tiously; this will.keep him in one place.
As you get very near him, draw little to
his shoulder and stop few seconds. If you
arc in his reach, he win turn his head and
smell your hand not that he has any pre-
ference for your hand, but because that is
projecting and is the nearest portion Of your
body TO the horse. This all colts will do,
and they will smell your naked hand, just
as quickly as they will anything that you
can put in it, and with just as good an effect,
however much some men have preached the
doctrine Of tanning horses by giving them
the scent Of articles from the hand. As
soon as he touches his nose to your hand,
caress him, always using very light, soft
hand, merely touching the horse, always
rubbing the way the hair lies, so that
your hand will pass along as smoothly as
possible.
I As you stand by his side, you may find
it more co. venieht to rub his neck or the
side Of his head, which will answer the same
purpose as rubbing his forehead. Favor
every inclination Of the horse to smell or
touch you with his nose. Always follow
each touch or communication of this. kind
with the most tender or ahectionate carcsses,
accompanied with kind look and pleasant
word Of some sort, such as Ho! my little
boy--ho! my little boyl" sPretty boy II
/" Nice lSdyl' or something Of that kind,
constantly repeating the same words, with
the same kind, steady tone of voice; for

Gov. Livingston, Of New Jersey, harbored a
suspicion (upon what foundation we know not)
that Sir Henry Clinton had formed plot for bis
assassination. Livingston, most unadvisodly,
wrote to Clinton, accusing him Of such a design,
and added, by way Of detorring threat, that
for every one he (sir Henry could find to exc.
cute the deed, he Qiyingston) could command
dozen to assassinato him. Sir Henry laconicaly
replied that hcwas happy to congratulate Gov.
Livingston on his amiable associates.

At the battle Of the Thames, laughable Incl
dent occurred, which is thus related by one who
was in the engagement:
The British General had formed his men in or.
der, with the cannon pointing down the road by
which the Americans were advancing. Gen. Har
rison took advantage Of this, and ordered Col
Johnson's mounted regiment to charge at full
speed, by heads Of companies, ESQ as to expos,
the least possible 'front.' pass through the oper
Intervals and form in the rear Of the British force
The movement was brilliantly executed by tht
battalion, and under the command Of Lieut.. Col
johnson, at the same time having the Indians with
the other battalion.
II happened that in ono Of the compauies nm.
der James Johnson's command there was huge
brawhy fellow named Lamb; he weighed about
two hundred and ten pounds, was brave man.
and good humored as good, as brave men pro.
verbally are. Lamb had broken down his Ken.
lucky horse by bis great weight and was mount.
ed instead upon short, stout wild Canadian
pony, from whose sides his long limbs suspended
almost on the ground, while his burly frame rose
high above the beasts, looking not unlike an over.
grown boy astride rough sheen.
When the charge was made. Lambs popv tool,
fright and broke into a run; Lamb pulled until
the bit broke in the animals month. and All conn
mand Of, him was lost The little ponv stro4ci.d
himself to the work, dashed out If the r.nEs
soon outstripped all the Gle leaders and pushed
on in advance Of the company. Lamb was no
longer master Of his horse or himsolf If ~
rolled of, he would be trampled to death bv bis
friends: Il tho horse rushed upop Tho Britisb
lines with him, 50 far ahead Of The rest ne mus,

The youth went away, and the party he trav-

asked what he had, and he said, "Forty dinars

thinking he jested.
Another asked the same question, and received
the same answer. At last the chief called and
asked him, and he said al havo told two oI
