The Dead Indian.
ADRIAN's STORY,

Just without the southern limits Of my
own city of Hartford, runs from north to
south a ridge of trap rocks commonly
called Hartford Rocky Hill; and which,
as | recollect, is figured and described in
an early numder Of Siliman's Journal Of
Science, as affording remarkable instan.
ce Of the junction Of trap with sandstone.
Its southern portion was formerly the
scene of public executions, and was called
by the illomened name Of Gallows Hill.
Its precipitous western face has long
been quarried for stone; while from its
crest the ground slopes eastward in a
broad and evenly inclined plain of fertile
farming land The northern portion of
this slanting tract is intersected by vari-
GUS lanes, Tow. however, disappearing as
the growing city stretches southwark,
throwing forward its feelers of surveys
and empty new streets, unsightiy scars
upon the bosom of the earth.
There stands, or stood, year ago, in
Zachary's Lane, as one Of these narrow
semi.rural ways is called. huge syca.
more tree, one or two of whose lower
limbs ran out horizontally to long dis.
lance. Crouched under the protection
Of this old giant, just at the top of the
sloping green bank by the roadside, was
a miserable stone hovel, foored even with
the ground, and with cellar to which
admission was gained in front by a pas
sage cut into the bank. AS far back as
any local memory extends, this hut had
been occupied, when occupied at all, by
one or another disreputable negro family;
but there was an obscure tradition that
the spot had been the site of the wigwam
of the sachem who ruled the neighborhood
almost two hundred and fifty years be-
fore, at the first coming of the white man
aud whose name is variously spelled il
the ancient records Of the colony, bd
most frequently Sunckquasson or Sequas
sen. In this dilapidated edifce some o
my friends and used last summer t
pass an afternoon; sometimes in trifinj
amusements, sometimes in conversation
often very serious and earnest. We ha'
added nothing to the accommodations o
the old hovel except few logs and block
which served US as seats. and the fantas
tic decoration of a human skull, whicl
one Of US, an admirer of Edgar A. Poe
had nailed up on the low, horizonta
branch which stretched along above til
hut, 10 q sort Of imitation of that whic

HARVEST.
Golden harvest, glad VIC greet thee.
With thy fields Vi waving grain,
For the Goddess, bounteous Ceres,
Decks the meadow. hill and plain.
Shining fields Of oats and barley,
Glisten In the sunbeams bright,
While tho wheat, in dress Of silver.
Da1zles with its shnmoring light
In the cornficld on the meadow,
Slyly peeps the yellow ear
And mammoth squash and pumpkins.
Is sig { the heart to cheer.
But while Ceres, the substantiss
Truly gives, to bless tho land,
Fair Pomona spreads her treasures
Round us. with u liberal hand.
In the orchard field and vineyard.

Fears and peaches, most delicious,
And the apple large and fair

Tempting fruit and silvery grain,
Fill tie farmers barn and storehouse,
From tho heavy -laden-wain.
Joyous harvest! days of gladness'

But from thce we learn II lesson,
That our race will soon bo run.

The Griefs OF Childhood.

These bitter sorrows of childhood when
sorrow is all new and strange, when hope
has not yet got wings to fly beyond the
days and weeks, and the space from sum-
ner to summer seems meaSureless. "Ah,
my child, you will have real troubles to
fret about by and by,o is the consolation
we have almost all Of us had administered
to us in our childhood, and have repeated
TO other children, since we have been
grown up. We have all of us sobbed so
piteously, standing with tiny bare legs,
above our little socks, when we lost sight of
our mother or nurse in some strange place;
but we can no longer recall the poignancy
OF that moment and weep over it, as we
do over the remembered sufferings of five
or ten years ago. Every one of those keen
moments has left its trace, and lives in us
still, but such traces have blent themselves
irrevocably with the firmer texture of our
youth and manhood; and so it comes that
we can look on at the troubles of our
children with a smiling disbelief of their
pains.
Is there any one who can recover the
experience of childhood, not merely with
memory Of what he did and what hap
pened to him, of what he liked and dis
liked when he was in frocks and trow sers
but with an intimate penetration, a re-
Vlved consciousness of what he felt then
when it was SO long from one midsummer
to another? What he felt when his
sschool-fellows put him out of their games
because he would pitch the ball wrong out
OF mere willlulness; or on rainy day in
the holidays, when he did not know
how to amuse HIMSELF and fell from
idleness into mischief, from mischief
into defiance, and from defiance into
sulkiness or when his mother absolutely
refused to let him have tailed coat that
'half," although every other bow Of his
age had gone into tails already. Surely,
if we could recall that early bitterness and
the dim guesses, the strangely perspective
less conception Of life that gave the bitter
ness its intensity, we should not pooh-pooh
the griefs of our children. Childhood has
no iorebodlngs but then it is soothed by
no memories of outlived sorrow. - Georqe
Eliot.

A warming to Young Men.

The American girl of books is as ideal
existence. The real girl, who has Just re-
turned from the country, and is occupying
herself with preparations for the approach
ing winter, is not at all difficult to describe.
She Is girl of immense energy and but
little physical strength. She has. if she
can be judged by what she accomplishes. a
noble digestion or perhaps, to be more ac-
cnrate, she has nobly triumphed over her
digestion, and reduced it to complete SUBJ
mission. She is not highly educated. nor
does she speak all foreign languages with
smoothness and correct idiom !; indeed she
has been known to play strange tricks with
her own tongue. She is lively, but not
witty she is fond of laughing, without
caring very much at what she laughs she
rs noisy and loud when she dares to be. AS
a general rule, she knows little or nothing
oil those matters which used to be consd-
cred essential parts of woman's education,
and intends, II she is rich, to have house,
keeping, when once she is married, done
Tor her by some one else; and if she is poor
she does not think about it any more than
she can help. Hernotions about marriage
itself are curious mixture of ideas de-
rived from novels, poems, and such ac-
9ualntance with the world as girls get from
the conversation ofyoung men who dance the
German with them through the winter.
and walk on the cliffs at Newport with
them in the summer. Her life. if she Is
rich, is in general one of thoughtless pleas
ure; il she is poor, her horizon is filled
with the mirage of what she might be if
she were only rich. She has in her mind
an ideal husband, whom usually she does
not marry. But the ideal American girl
we will not profane the memory of the
happy age when all the world believed in
her t6l existence with cynical comparisons. =
