AN INDIAN GErID

Once, when the world was young and there
we're but few Red men upon it, there was u
chief whose vile bore him many Children
Every summer added one and sometimes two to
his family, and they became go numerous that
the chief could not give them a sufficient sup
ply of meat to satisfy their appetites, and the
children were continually squalling in the wig
vans. The chief, however, bore all Of the ills
of his wigwam without murmur, and follow
ed the chase night and day, that he might salts
fy the hunger of his children.
Ia those days the Red men all lived together
in peace aud friendship. There was no war,
and no scalp lock hung from the door of the
lodges.
The chief, by his skill in bunting and his
great patience, at length raised his large fami-
ly until his eldest son reached the stature OF
manhood. The young man had the fear of the
"Great Spirit in his heart, and like his father,
toiled patiently in the chase, that he might as
sist in providing food for his brothers and sis
ters. In those days, all Of the promising young
men, at their entrance into manhood, had to
separate themselves from the tribe, and retire
into the forest to see if the "Great Spirit
wOuIdn't grant them.soIne request. During
this time they were neither to eat or drink, but
but were to spend their time in thinking intent
ly on the request they were making to the
Mantle.
The son of the chief, as | said before, was
good and noble, and his life had been one of la
Dor for his brothers and sisters. When he had
gone far in The forest, he commenced to pray
to the Great Spirit, and to ask request which
he had long garnered in his heart for this occa'
sion. He had often felt how frequently the
chase disappointed the Red men, and how often
their families had gone TO sleep hungry, because
they had no meat, and he had long determined
when his !" fasting and dreaming hour " should
come, that he would ask the Great Spirit to give
TO the Red man some article OF food more Ger
tain than the meat obtained in the chase. Al
Of that day the youth prayed and thought Of hi
request, and neither water or food entered m
mouth. At night, with bright hope IN hl
young heart, be lay down to sleep, and soon h'
sawa youth mngnifcenlly attired, coming to
wards him. He was clad in robes OF green
and green plumes hung about his comely coun
tenspce. He approached the youth with
comely smile upon his lips as brightas the morn
ing, and gently taking him BY the hand thu
addressed him:
@My dear young friend, the Great SPiril n0

OF all the charms dear woman wears,
OF all her many traps or snares,
For real effect there's nought compares
With truly pretty bonnet;
For when or wherever you chance to meet
One that is perfectly modest and neat,
You may depend tits proof complete
That the head has more in than on it.
No matter whether she's pretty or not,
How much or how little money she's got,
Whether she live in a mansion or cot,
'Fis a fact, depend upon it;
The woman to make man happy thro' life,
To make model mother and wife,
Is one who, scorning the milliner strife,
Wears plain and tasteful bonnet.
Now bonnet of genuine beauty and grace,
Worn on the head ia its proper place,
Shadowing family the wearer's face,
''Is thing for song or a sonnet;"
But one of those gay and gaudy things,
Made up of rainbows and butterfly wings,
A mixture of flowers, ribbons and strings,
Is dreadful, depend upon it.
A vulgar mass of L" fuss and feather"
AS little of everything thrown together,
AS if by touch of windy weather,
A wretched cOnglomeration-
sort of cup to catch the hair,
Leaving the head to go it bare"
A striking example of" Nothing TO Wear"
Is this bonnet abomnation.
1t makes a woman look brazen and bold,
Assists her in catching nothing but cold,
Is bad on the young, absurd on the old,
And deforms what it ought to deck;
For look at her face, no bonnet is there,
See at the side it hangs by hair;
View it behind, and you will declare
That the creature has broken her neck.
No matter where you may chance to be,
No matter how many women you see,
A promscuous crowd or a certain she,
You may fully depend upon it,
That gem of the very rarest kind,
A thing most difficult to find
A pet for which We long have pinel.
Is perfect '' love of bonnet"

noise OF TN pans and cXtempOFized trumpeis,

hIdcous with their yells. Ia Buffalo affairs
were equally as exciting, whilst in Albany some
tive hundred "gentlemen v, mostly with short
hair broken noses and thick boots, were gath
cred around the telegraph office, besieging it
tor information. All anxiety, however, vas re-
lieved on yesterday, by the following despatch
10 the newspapers:
BHfatO, Oct. 20.-The brutal fight between
Heeuan and Morrissey took place this after
noon, at Long Point, Canada. 1t commenced
at twenty minutes to o'clock. Heenan made
objection to the ground, saying that il was not
according 10 the agreement, but as so many had
come 10 see the fight, lie wcu!d waive his OBJ
jections and fight. The first round lasted seven
minutes, and the fighting was terrible, Hesnan
throwing MOrrissey and drawing the first blood.
On the second round Morrissey was again
thrown, and on the third round Heenan was
thrown. On the fourth round both men came
up, looking weak, and Morrissey was knocked
square down by blow on the under jaw from
I1eenan's right
On the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth rounds
iIeeuan was thrown. On the ninth round both
men fonght wildly, and fell side by side. On
the tenth round Heenan was knocked down.
On the eleventh round Morrssey was very
weak, aud was carried to the scratch, but IIee-
nan went alone. This was horrible round -
Hcelan fell faintng. On the twelfth round
Morrissey was carried to the scratch, but Hee-
nan was too faint to come to time, when the
battle was declared won by MOrrissey. Eleven
rounds were fought in twenty-five minuIes.-
Both Heenan aud Morrissey were very badly
cut, and had TO be brought away on beds. The
fight was witnessed by about three thousand
persons. There was no disturbance.
