AN ABORIGINAL CHANT.

What time the glittering rays of morn,
O'er hill and valley steal,
Chief Joseph's squaw. with dog and corn,
Prepares the Indian meal.
And If, with wild, rebellious shout,
The papoose shall appear,
The chieftain leads the bad child out,
Clutched by the Injine ear.
The breakfast Ger, the daughter s.rolls
Down glen and shady dell;
While gay young braves, from wooden
knolls,
look out for the Injine beller'
Each stricken brave she turns and leaves
Her coyness to bewail;
her dragging blanket stirs the leaves
The wellknowD Indian trail
A Black Hills miner, scalped and dead,
Upon the ground is found;
Grim speaks the chief: There's been. I'm
afraid,
An Indian summers around"
What time ne riieth forth to shoot,
His favorite horse the dapple is
And when he wants a little fruit,
Goes where the indianapolis.
When finished are his warlike tasks
With brazen incongruity
For overcoats and food he asks,
With charming Indianuity.
At night before his bed he'll! seek,
With countenance forlorn,
He takes his scalping knife, and exc
He trims the Indian corn.

Then / saw, for the first time, a SOM
nambulist.
For moment hesitated whether 20
awake him. He was easily mortified and
my catching him in such plight would
prove disagreeable to US both. SO l simply
followed him.
He went on, past my door, and up the
stairs. AT the garret entrance he stopped
second, then lifted the latch and entered.
l was close behind.
without the least hesitation be advanced
to the lumber closet. did not know the
old rifle was there, and again followed
The moonlight, streaming i'm through the
chinks in the caves and one broken window,
made the dreary place quite light.
He turned the wooden button of the
closet door, and drew ont a powder horn
Then he brought out bag of shot. And
then-the fatal gun.
AT once l remembered it. Who, indeed,
that had ever seen it could forget the heav-
lily chased mountings of silver, the gro
tesquely carved butt, the enormous barrel?
With the recollection there flashed upon
me such horror as had never felt
Still, L was powerless to move. l tried
to cry out. My tongue refused,
AT last l found utterance. But in the
brief moment had thought of the ccnse-
quences that must follow my awaking him.
Here, evidently, was the precious secret
kept so long-the clue to his daughter s
death. No doubt the gun had been loaded
before the fatal bridal day, in the same
manner, and by the same man. in the same
| condition of somnambulism, as l saw it
was being loaded now. The father was
unconscious that he was really the murder
er OF his daughter. He knew the gun had
gone off in his hand, but ascribed it to the
Mexicau's curse. Why should L undeceive
| him? Had he not sorrow enough So |
let him be. Shuddering 7 saw him ram
home the charge and then put the rifle back
Was not right? Is there any event SO
seemingly supernatural so clothed in mys-
| terry, that chance cannot make It plain as
| any page of Natures laws?
The old rifle is mine. 1t is cleaning at
me even now.
