A DESPERATE FIGHT.


T HE celebrated fight between Adam
j Poe and the Shawnee chief, Black
Father has been spoken of in the histories
of early Kentucky, but l believe the par
ticulars of that combat have never been
given correctly to the public.
The fight was remarkable not only on
account of the well known powers of the
parties engaged, but for the exceeding
stubbornness with which it was conducted,
and the many different phases it assumed
before being brought to an end
They Utterly fought on the earth, in the
air and under the water.
Adam Poe, one of the first settlers of
Kentucky, had often expressed desire to
meet the chief of the Shawnees in hand
to-hand combat, and these boastings having
reached the ears of Black Father, he declar-
ed his intention of seeking out the daring
white man.
This, for two reasons, he actually did,
but circumstances combined to keep them
apart for that time. Finally, however, the
opportunity came.
Adam Poe and his brother had been out
hunting, and were returning towards sun
down, bearing buck on pole between
them.

A Winter Voyage.

Westerly winds, says Boston pa
per, have prevailed to remarkable
extent the few weeks past. Landsmon
scarcely notice the weather vanes,
but the men of the sea, westward
bound, have experienced great priva'
tions. A gentleman has just returned
from the Mediterranean. having been
twenty days short of ratiOns, living
on fiiberts and thin soup. Once for a
hundred miles he had fair wind a
few times moro be had twenty or
thirty miles of fair sailing; but all OF
the best of the voyage he was tack
ing this way and that against the cc u,
west winds which often met him with
souals of snow or sleet. For SIX
weeks past he had been beating up
and down this side of the Newiouno'
land hanks; and during this time

there had been a steady succession Of
westerly gales, stiff and cold. Three
times the vessel las been encased in
ice; the running rigging fixed, no sail
movable the deck and the sides heavy
with ice; and the frost.bitten crew
could do nothing but drift toward the
warm Gulf Stream to thaw out The
captaid reports forty sails now due
from-thc Mediterranean, and several
have been out longer than he. And
pointing toward the sea from his house
on the hill, he speaks of these men as
now just beyond the horizon, frost
bitten and starving, and lighting with
the cold northwesters.
