the smuggling of "A steamboat with the
owner on board, who was particularly
fond of playing on the violin.
The Captain and engineer were in
the cabin playing cards one day, when
her bow struck snag which Knocked
a hole in her as bigas hogshead. The
shock upset the faro table and those who
were gathered around it, and caused II
general confusion and Consideration on

rightcd himself in his chair, recon-
meuccd his tune where he left off, and
went on playing as though nothing had
happened.

his left ear to the violin, la Ole Bull,
and appeared perfectly enchanted with
his own strains.

The white Canoe.

a In the days Of old long before the
deep solitudes of the West were dis
turbed by white men, it was tho custom
Iof the Indian warriors of tho forest to
assemble nt the great cataract, and
offer a human sacrifice to tho Spirit Of
the Falls. The offering consisted OF a
white canoe full of ripe fruits and
blooming flowers, which was padded
over the terrible cliff by the fairest girl
of the tribe, who had just arrived ut
the age of womanhood. II was counted
an honor by the tribe to whose lot it
fell to make the costly sacrifice and
even the doomed maiden deemed it
high compliment to be selected to
guide the white canoe over tho falls
The only daughter OF chief of tho
Seneca Indians was once chosen as
sacrificial offering to the Spirit OF
Niarara. Her mother had been slain
Lva hestile tribe. Her father was the
brnycst among his warriors, and when
the lot fell on his fair child, no symp-
tom of feeling crossed his countenance
At length the day arrived; it faded
into night Us tho savage festivities and
rejoicing proceeded then the moon
arose and silvered the cloud of mist
that rose above the turmoil Of Niagara;
and now the white canoe, laden with its
precious freight, glided from the bank
and swept out into the dread rapid from
which escape was hopeless. The young
girl calmly streerod hor tiny bark
towards tho centre Of the stream
while frantic yclls and shouts arose
from the shores. Suddenly another
white canoe shot forth into the storm,
upon the powerful impulse of the Seneca
chief. flew like arrow to destruction. 1t
overlook the first ; the eyes of Father
and child met in one last gaze of love-
and then they plunged together over
the laundering cnteract.

MISCELLANEOUS.
a Western Eaie of Truth.

Mr.. Henry Lossley was the son of a
gentleman in Georgia who was but in
moderate circumstances. He was rear
ed in the general ealston of rearing chill
.dren among southern planters; he
received a tolerable education and some
knowledge of book keeping having spei
a few months in the house of N, in
the town of A. In the nineteenth
year of his age, he formed an attach
ment to Miss Mary Lansing, young
lady of some accomplishments and great
personal beauty. but her Pat!rmony was
small. Mr.. Lossley and Miss Lansing
were frequently in each others COM
panv, and every time they met, their
mutual attachment increased. They
often spoke of their affection Tor each
other, and lamented that their prospects
were not such as to justly connection
for life. Thus matters went on with
them for several years, till at length,
finding it impossible for them to be
happy unless in each others society,
thew determined to cast their lots to-
gether, and if they should not be able
to move through the world in the style
they could wish, they could at all events
support themselves deccntly; so they
were united by that tie which is the most
sacred and endearing that can be form
ed in this life.
For some months after their union
they did not seem sensible of their want
of pecuniary means, but it soon became
evident that they would have to gain
support by their actual labor; and as
it was also certain that in that country
they could not do more than obtain Il
mere subsistence, and at last, in old age
be without any SETTLED home, to which
they did not feel willing to submit,-it
was Thought best that Mr.. Lossley
should travel into some new country
get a piece of handmade some little
improvements on it-then return and
carry out his companion. Many were
the anxious thoughts that filled their
bosoms. The husband had his fears
lest he should fail in obtaining pleas
ant home for his beloved one whom he
was about to leave behind; and the
wife already began to count the months
the weeks, and even the days she
should be left as it were alone in the
world while on the other hand, they
both looked forward with pleasure to
the time when, in new country, grow
ing with its growth and strengthening
with its strength, they should rise to a
state of Importance in the world.
The time of separation at last arrived
and Mr.. Lossley, after embracing his
best of all earthly friends, gave the
parting hand and took his journey, not
knowing certainly whittier he was go
ing. He travelled to the State Of
kentucky, and was about contracting
for a piece of land in the neiShborhood
of where the town of lis now built,

of her. name never could be erased
from his mind; and though, said he, l
have passed through the town, the coun-
try, and the dreary Wilderness
through winter, through health and
affliction, through smiles and frowns-
yet | have ever borne, painted upon the
imagination, the image of my lamented
Mary. Here the mists began to gather
in the eye of the Colonel, and for few
moments death-like silence prevailed
AT length, looking upon his intended
bride he saw that she had taken more
than usual interest in the relation he
had been making. He then broke the
silence by saying, ''you must forgive
me for the kind remembrance bear for
the beloved companion of my youth"
While he was uttering this sentence,
Mrs. Starks swooned away, and would
have fallen from her seat had not the
Colonel supported her.
While she lay in this dcath-like state
many were the reflections which passed
through the mind of Colonel Lossley.
First, supposing that, as he had for
time kept this secret from her, and at
last divulged it without intending to do
so, it might have a tendency TO destroy
her confidence IN him or couse her to
fear that his affections we're 50 much
placed upon the memory of his first
wife that it would be impossible for him
to love her as he ought. These and
many other thoughts of like kind
rushed through his mind, and he await
ed the power Of utterance On the part of.
Mrs. Starks to hear her renounce hins
forever. But oh, how mistaken wSge
his fears No sooner aroused from Ter
swoon than she threw her arms around
his neck, and resting her head upoh
his BOSOM. sobbed like child, crying
out, "Oh my husband my husband !"
The Col. being much astonished, inqui-
red rather hastily what she meant =
With couutenance still beaming with
10Y and suffused with tears, she OK
claimed with half-choked utterance,
Il am your Mary! your long lost Mary !!
and you arc my Henry, whom have
mourned us dead for these twenty
years"
The joy then became mutual. That
night ana the next day were spent in
relating the circumstances which tran
spired with them during their separa-
ton, and in adoring the Providence
that brought them together. On the
next evening those bddcn to the marri-
age attended. The parson came-but
there was no service for him to render.
The transported couple informed the
company that they had been lawfully
married upwards of twenty years be-
fore and gave in explanation the above
brief outline Of their histry.- Western

lie aValled himself or tne Hrs1 oPPol-
tunity of writing few lines to his COM
panion in order to let her know where
he was and what he was doing.
The letter never reached the beloved
object for whom it was intended, but t Il
into the hands of one eyboSe name oo1H
be ''rereGled In that day." Snffice it to
say, there was one with whom Mr..
Lossley. had been a competitor. An
answer came-but not from Mrs. Loss
ley it was apparently from her father,
with whom he had left her during his
absence Oh, horrid letter never shall
| forget its language.
"DeQT son.-Your wife took sick
about a week after your departure. At
first we did not entertain any fears con-
cerning her. After some days her brain
became affected and she lost her reason
and while in this situation she called
every person who was in attendance on
her and came to see her, '.Henry :"
A short time before her death she came
20 herself, and seemed to have but one
desire to live which was to see you and
her last sentnance was. "O.my daw
HenrY! and shall see him no more an
this life ?"-and breathed her last.
On the reception of this letter Mr..
Lossley became almost desperate.
His whole amount of earthly good seem
ed to be cut off at one stroke. He
made several attempts to answer this
letter, but it was impossible to write
on such painful subject. He became
a solitary man-being in land of stran-
gers-and had no person to whom he
could unbosom himself, and though
grief is fond of company, yet he had to
share his alone. The thought ofreturn-
ing to the place where he had SO often
beheld the fair face and lovely form of
his now lost Mary, without being able
to see her, he could not bear; and hav-
ing left but little behind save his com
panion that was of any consequence to
him, he he'd no idea of returning.
i'-'
Neither had he any disposition to settle
himself and finding that he could sus-
tain grief better when travelling than
in any other way, he wandered off
without any settled point of destination.
At length he found himself at the lead
mines of Missouri. But he yet beheld
objects that reminded him of his loss,
which induced him to sink still deeper
into the bosom of the great forets ; Sc
he joined himself to "a company of fur
traders, and shaped his course for the
Rocky Mountains.
1t was the custom of the company
to post d watch at night, which was
proposed to be taken by turns; yet
for some time Lossley volunteered his
services ov"ry night so that when his
companions were asleep be would look
