SINGULAR -INCIDENT.-.'Nernal, writing
from Matthews Court House to the Norfolk
Journal, says: "There was a notice a few DAYS
since in thAJOurnal OF the death of Mrs. Silla
Summers. There appeared during her last mo-
ments strange phenomenon and coincidence
probably unparalleled. A few of the neighbors
were sitting in q lower chamber where MIR. Sum
ners was confined to his bed with the rheuma-
tism. He had his face towards the fire. Sud-
denly he asked them to look in the fire and tell
him If they saw anything remarkable. They
looked, and all at once uttered an exclamation
of astonishment; for there on the face of char
red log was plainly traced in letters of fire the
name OF Silla. All watched it in silence, some
hoping, some fearing its significance. Soon one
the last, when simultaneously there was burst
of grief from an upper chamber. The last spark
Of life in Silla Summers went out together with
the last letter OF her name. While have no
doubt Of the truth, have no specuiations 10

ing thrilling story OF American romance.
A son OF James Galloway married daughter
of Daniel Boone, and thus the two families
became united by closer bonds, and the
friendship of the old hunters became intensi
fed, for they were as devoted as brothers,
having shared the dangers of the forest to-
get'ler. and learned to appreciate the Prov
ess Of each other. We have been at the place
where Daniel Boone lived and died. Have
stood by the graves of himself aud wife, and
whilst meditaiing beside their last re- ting
place, the nppermost thought was of the bold
old hunting experience OF Boone. We have
seen descendants of Boone and Galloway all

Inherited the passion for hunting of their
noble ancestors. Whether in public life. in
the pursuits Of civil life. or in wha tcver they
were engaged, these descendants would drop
all TO hunt, and like heir ancestors, as popu-
latioh crowded them they would retreat in
the direction OF the buffalo. They have fol-
lowed them with the same old ardor d teif
race. We are led to these "reminiscences by
receiving Yesterday a COED supply of fresh.

ant of Boone and Galloway. whose inherent
passion had brought him out here to travel In
the paths OF ht great aim Of the lives OF his
race, the buffalo. Some say the time is COM

hunting grounds. Such an event we should
depiOre. for when that dreadful time shall ar
rive. we fear it will be a sad blow to the drs-
pendants OF the old Kentucky hunters. for we
awtully dread when the buffalo is no more.
