the girl, who with friends and naighhors, has
been searching and tclngraphing constantly
since the infantuta ell g,rl disappeared The
romantic young lady who was SO anxions to
become the bride of redskin, was attending
school in this city, and on Thursday morning
last, she procured five dollars of her father to
surchse books with She also left home at
an unusually early hour, in order, as she said
to make her purchases before the morning
session. as she would otherwise be obliged to
transact the business at noon recess, and
thus be deprived of her dinner at home.
Nothing was suspected, and she came into
town early, where she met her Indian lover
and the twain started upon the cars for the
Worchester Depot. They proceeded to War
rem, few miles from West Brookfield. where
the aboriginal has two brothers. residing
about six miles from the railroad 1t was al
first supposed that the ill-sorted pair had
gone to Warren and messenger was dis
patched thither last Thursday. but he could
find no trace of the fugitives. The telegraph
was then put in requiston, and messages were
dispatched to all the railroad depots within
a hundred miles. At length was ascertained
Saturday afternoon that they had alighted
at Warren, and to-day something will be
done about it,
The father of the girl is much esteemed by
his acquaintances, and a great deal of SYM
patty is expressed for him. The girl has
been always correct in her department, and
has won the regard Of all that knew her. She
was courted by young merchant in this

Grated upon the poor girls imagination that
she was easily fascinated by the cunning red
skin, who has been living in tents with his
brethren in Dorchester and Quincy for sew
eral weeks past. She will probably repent
bitterly that she was charmed by the plctur-
esque appearance ofan Indian lodge and the
oily tongue Of a willy copper face to leave the
comforts Of civilized home.-Boston Her.
