CHAPTER III.
"Enemy-take your scalp-take
my scalp, in minute-only
can't catch him."

Not another syllable did lie
Bourbon utter to the Chippewa, or
the Chippewa to him, in that
sitting, touching the important e.
vent just communicated. Each
carefully avoided manifesting any
further interest in the subject, but
the smoking continued for some
time after the sun had set. As
the shades of evening began to
gather, the Pottawattamie arose,
shook the ashes from his pipe,
gave grunt, and uttered word
or two by way OF announcing his
disposition to retire. On this hint,
Ben went into the cabin, spread his
skins, and minated to his guests
that their beds We're ready for them
Few compliments pass among
border-men on such occasions, and
one after another dropped off
until all were stretched on the
skins but the master OF the place.
He remained up two hours later,
Eliminating on the state of things;
when perceiving that the night was
wearing, on, he also found a nest,
and sought his repose.
Nothing occurred to disturb the
occupants of "Castle Meal,n as lie
Bourbon laughingly called his cabin
until the return of day. If there
were any bears seeming around the
place, as often occurred at night,
their instinct must have apprised
them that a large reinforcement
was present, and caused them to
defer their attack to a more fav-
orable opportunity. The first
afoot next morning was the bee
hunter himself, who arose and
left his cabin just as the earli-
est streaks of day were appearing
in the east. Although dwelling
in a wilderness, the "openings"
had not the character OF ordinary
forests. The air circulates freely

an American, and mean to stand
by my own people, come what
will"
Thought you only peaceable
bee-hunter, just now" retorted the
Chippewa a little sarcastically.
BY this time lie Bourbon had
somewhat cooled, and he became
conscious Of his indiscretion. He
knew enough OF the history of the
past, to be fully aware that in all
periods Of American history, the
English, and, for that matter, the
French too, SO long as they had
possession on this continent, never
scrupled about employing the
savages in their conflicts.
He also was fully aware that one
OF the surest pulses of approaching
hostilities between England and
America, was to be felt in the far
west. III the Indians were in move
ment, some power was probably
behind the scenes TO set them in
motion. Pigeonswing was well
known to him by reputation; and
there was that about the man
which awakened the most unpleas-
ant approximations, and he felt an
itching desire to learn all he could
from him, without betraying any
more of his own feelings, if that
were possible.
~ do not think the British will
attempt Mackinaw," Ben remarked,
after a long pause and good
deal of smoking had enabled him
to assume an air of safe indif-
ference.
"Got him, tell you," answered
Pigeonswing, pointedly."
"Got what, Chippewa"
"Him -Mac-naw-got fort got
so'gers-got whole island. Know
dat. for been dere."
This was astounding news, in
deed! The commanding officer Of
that ill-started garrison could not
himself have been more astonished,
when he was unexpectedly sum
moned to surrender by an enemy
who appeared to start out of the
| earth, than was lie Bourbon, at
hearing this intelligence. To west
ern notions, Michilimackinac was
another Gibraltar, although really
place of very little strength, and
garrisoned by only one small COM
pany of regulars. Still, habit had
given the fortress sort of
sanctity among the Adventures of
that region; and it's fall, even in
the settled parts of the country,
sounded like the loss of pro-
vince. 1t is now known that, an
ticipating the movements of the
Americans, some three hundred
whites, sustained by more than
twice that number of Indians, in
Guiding warriors from nearly every
adjacent tribe, had surprised the
post on the 18th of July, and COM
PEELED the subaltern in command,
with some fifty old men, to sur
render. This rapid, and highly
military measure, on the part of
the British, completely cut off the
post of Chicago, at the head of
Lake Michigan, leaving it isolated,
on what was then a very remote
wilderness. Chicago, Mackinac, and
Detroit, were the three grand
stations of the Americans on the
upper lakes, and here were two
of them virtually gone at blow

beneath their oaks, the sun pene-
trates in thousand places, and
grass grows wild but verdant.
There was little dampness of the
virgin woods; and the morning air,
though cool, as is ever the case,
even in midsummer, in regions still
covered with trees, was balmy: and
at that particular spot it came to
the senses of lie Bourbon loaded
with the sweets Of many a wide
glade Of his favorite white clover.
OF course he had placed his cabin
near those spots where the insect
he sought most abounded; and
fragrant site it proved to be in
favorable conditions OF the at
mosphere. Ben had taste for
all the natural advantages Of
his abode, and was standing in
enjoyment Of its placid beauties,
when someone touched his elbow
Turning, quick as thought, he
perceived the Chippewa at his side.
That young Indian had approached
with the noisless tread Of his peo-
pie, and was now anxious to hold
a private communication with him.
"Pottawattamie got long ear
come fudder," said Pigeonswing !;
"go cook-house-t'ink we want
| breakfast"
Ben did as desired; and the two
were soon side by side at the spring
in the outlet of which they made
their additions, the redskin being
totally without paint. When this
agreeable office was performed.
each felt in better condition for
conference.
"Elksfoot got belt from Canada
Fadder," commenced the Chip
pewa, with a sententious allusion
to the British propensity to keep
the savages in pay. "Know he got
him-know he keep him"
"And you, Pigeonswing-by your
manner Of talking / had set you
down for a Kings min, too"
"Talk so-no feel bit so. My
heart Yankee"
"And have you had a belt of
wampum sent you, as well as the
rest of them?"
"Dat true-got him-don't keep
him."
"What! did you dare to send it
back?"
can't fool, dough young. Keep
him; no keep him. Keep him for
Canada Fadder; no keep him for
Chippewa brave"
"What have you then done with
your belt?"
BURY him where nobody find
him dis war. No aubkenewh no
hole in heart to let king in"
Pigeonswing, as this young
Indian was commonly called in his
tribe, in consequence of the rapid
ity of his movements when en-
ployed as a runner, had a much
more respectable name, and one
that he had fairly earned in some
of the forays of his people, but
which the commonalty had Just

of the art as was necessary to that
object. The woods always furn-
ished the materials; and a pile of
slaves that was placed beneath a
neighboring tree, sufficiently de-
noted that he did not yet deem
that portion of his task completed.
In one corner OF the hut was

three in number, each and all OF
which had been taken from the
carcasses of fallen foes, within the
last two months. Three more were
stretched on saplings, near by, in
the process Of curing. 1t was
material part of the bee-hunter's
craft to kill this animal, in partic-
ular; and the trophies of his con-
flicts with them were proportion
ably numerous. On the pile already
prepared he usually slept
There was very rude table, a
single board set up on site |, and
a bench or two, togetf Nth a
wooden chest of some size, COM
pleted the furniture. Tools were
suspended from the walls, it is
true; and no less than three rifles,
in addition to a very neat double
barrelled SHOTGUN" or fowling-
piece, were standing in a corner.
These were arms collected by our
hero in his different trips, and
retained quite as much from af-
lection, as from necessity, or eau
ton. OF ammunition, there was no
very great amount visible; only
three or four horns and a couple
of pouches being suspended from
pegs: but Ben had a secret store,
as well as another rifle, carefully
secured, in a natural magazine and
arsenal, at a distance sufficiently
great from the chiente, to remove
it from all danger of sharing in
the fortunes of his citadel should
disaster befall the last.
The cooking was done altogether
out Of doors. For this essential
comfort, lie Bourbon had made very
liberal provision. He had a small
oven sufficiently convenient
fireplace, and storehouse, at
hand; all placed near the spring,
and beneath the shade Of mag
nilicent elm. In the storehouse he
kept his barrel of flour, his barrel
of salt, stock of smoked or dried
meat, and that which the woods
man, if accustomed in early life
to the settlements, prizes most
highly, a half-barrel of picked
pork. The bark canoe had sufficed
TO transport all these stores, mere
ly ballasting handsomely that tick
fish craft; and it's owner relied on
the honey TO perform the same
office on the return voyage, when
trade or consumption should have
disposed of the various articles
just named.
The reader may smile at the
word trade" and ask where were
those to be found who could be
parties to the traffic. In the first
place, there were always the
Indians TO barter skins and furs
against powder, lead, rifles blank
cts, and unhappily "fire-water."
Then, the white men who pene-
trated to those semi-wilds, were
always ready to "dicker" and to
swap, and to trade rifles, and
watches, and whatever else they

mlgnl happen 10 possess, ALMOST
to their wives and children.
But we should be doing injustice
to lie Bourbon, were we in any
manner to confound him with the
"dickering" race. He was a bee
hunter quite as much through
love of the wilderness, and love
of adventure, as through love of
gain.
The duties of hospitality are
rarely forgotten among border
men. The inhabitant of a town may
lose his natural disposition to
receive all who offer at his board,
under the pressure of society; but
it is only in most extraordinary
exceptions that the frontier man
is ever known to be inhospitable.
He has little to offer, but that
little is seldom withheld, either
through prudence or niggardli-
ness. Under this feeling-we might
call it habit also-le Bourbon now
set himself at work to place on
the table such food as he had at
command and ready cooked. The
meal which he soon pressed his
guests to share with him, was
composed of good piece of
cold boiled pork which Ben had
luckily cooked the day previously,
some BEARS meat roasted, frag-
ment of venison steak, both lean
and cold, and the remains OF a
duck that had been shot the day
before in the Kalamazoo, with
bread, salt, and what was some
what unusual in the wilderness,
two or three onions, raw. The last
dish was highly relished by Ger
shom, and was slightly honored by
Ben; but the Indians passed it
over with cold indifference. The
dessert consisted of bread and
honey, which were literally par
taken of by all at table.
Little was said by either host
or guests, until the supper was
finished, when the whole party left
the chiente, to enjoy their pipes,
in the cool evening air, beneath
the oaks of the grove in which the
dwelling stood. Their CONVERSE
sation began to let the parties
know something of each Others
movements and characters.
"You are Pottawattamie, and
you a Chippewa" said lie Bour-
don, as he courteously handed TO
his two red guests pipes of theirs,
that he had just stuffed with some
of his own tabacco-"I believe you
are a sort Of cousins, though
your tribes are clli.i ~ hf-
ferent names"
"Nation, Ojebway," returned the
elder Indian, holding up finger.
by way of enforcing attention.
Tribe, Pottawattamie," added
the runner, in the same contentious
manner.
"Baccy, good"-put in the senior,
by way of showing he was well
contented with his comforts.
"Have you nothin' to drink?" de-
manded Whiskey Centre, who saw
no great merit in any thing but
! fire-water.'
"There is the spring" returned
lie Bourbon, gravely; "a gourd
hangs against the tree"

as she so blooming that you
call her Blossom? demanded the
bee-hunter, "or is she SO young?'
"The gals a little of both. Dolly
is my wife, and Blossom is my
sister. The real name Of Blossom
is Margery Waring, but every
body calls her Blossom; and so /
gin into it, with the rest on 'em."
1t is probable that lie Bourbon
lost a good deal Of his interest in
this flower of the wilderness, as
soon as he learned she was SO
nearly related to the Whiskey
Centre. Gershom was so very un-
inviting an object, and had so
many palpable marks, that he had
fairly earned the nickname which,
as it afterward appeared the west
ern Adventures had given him,
as well as his abode, wherever the
last might be, that no one of de-
Gently sober habits could readily
fancy any thing belonging to him.
At any rate, the bee-hunter now
led the way into his cabin, whittier
he was followed without unneces-
sary ceremony, by all three of his
guests.

use the most poetical, if not the
most accurate word was sinOularIV

ornamental than unsightly. These
