Ii was tho family of a Hardy young farmer, who, with a wife, young, ac'tivo aud ambitious as himsulf, had, b I n few years before, made bis pttgli on n lot of wild laud, and was now, by ill steady efforts of his industry, rapidly transforming the patch of brown wdduruess, which lie hud selected as his house, imu a cultivated field. It was near the uight of a buaut.ful summer’s day, and the stm was slowly sinking behind the woody hills which, deeply environing die tog house aud the little opeiimg around it, stood clothed in all the green majesty of uaiure, sending forth on the pure atmosphere, cooled and moistened by the evaporauug spray ol a thousaud falling’rills, their sweet anu balmy bieaihe impregnated with all tho mingled fragrance of the blooming wilderness.' Toe farmer had returned from his labor iu the field, aud was silertdy pacing the room with an air ufd.jectiuu and pensive- ness, lie gave no reasoit, however for this change m uts deportment, and routaihed silent till be was kindly interrogated by lib wife; when he paused awhile and observed—I know not bow it is, Rebecca, but I Itttve felt this day a sensation ol uncommon uneasiness rather of mind than of body 1 believe—iliat same unac. cuuiuublu feelmg wirch 1 have always experi enced when sumo hidden danger was lurking about me. 1 dunk it all nius be but your own taucymgs, repheil she, wait some apparent con cern.

While sho was speak ing the busbaud bad approached tho side of the house and was intently looking dirough a large crevice between the logs front which the moss, a substance in common use to stop.tho crevi ces ot log buddiugs, hull been partly reraovod. in a moment he started Yack with n look of dis- ■y,seized bis nllo Irom tho wooden .hook by wiiicli it was suspended from a beam above him, and iiislaudy cocked it, Rebecca, said lie, m a Hurried ioue, come here’! Sho trembling ly oncyed, aud looking through tho crevico in the direction indicated tiy ins quivering fingoi, slie instantly recoiled from the viow, and ex changed a meaning aud alarmed glance with bur busbaud who was now m the attitude of rais ing too muzzle uf tho piece to tho crevice. Seizing it witn both bands, you cannot be so thoughtless, s jd she, us to firo upon them— G,fiy, Uy out of the othor window nnd you can reach the woods unseen. Tho husband pausing a moment and giving a quick glanco in eveiy direction uround him, replied, you are rigJtt—wnilo site as if rcauing tit a look his wishes, reached him his powder horn and ball pouch ana was hurrying him to tho window. As lie passed mo he said, stay here and protect my laiuily till J return, und all but life shall re ward you. Ho then threw himself opt’of tho window, and bowing almost to tuo ground '’and sometimes creeping, he pursued Ins way hastily hrougli the weeds and bushes that bordered a small rivulet nil be reached the wuods nnd dis appeared.

I staunched his wonijd in tho bet way I could, revived and conveyed him to my tent. Tho wound was ool dangerous and in a lew days, during which I paid him all the at tention in uty power, ho was enable to depart to his tribe who were eqtnrapod round the oili er end of the lake. After this ho frcqucn ly visited my tent, bringing me ganto and taking various ways to express his gratitude. Spend ing considerable tune with mo in huiijmg ex cursions, I soon became inqcli attached to Inrn, ' ' ajid repaid his kindness wilb many little pres- entsot •. ions kinds of trinkets which I bad brought with me. This probably awakened thuju dousy of his companmns, as I afterward* noticed an uncommon coolness an j , reserve in 'heir manner tewirds me when I met them. While mttters continued thus, one nigju as I '• lay in niv tent I was awakened by n forums barking of my dog. • The terrified animal, by his unnatural cries nnd the manner iu whiph lio veu.ured forth and frequently retreated back into thedoor of ntv tent, told mo that no com mon animal was near me. I arose, retievvcd ilio priming of my gun, and looked out in tho direction where the attention of tho dog was confined. At length my sight tva3 caught by ityo hideously ghiriug eyeballs that were burn ing out from the boughs of a thick pine that siood but eighfwr tnnrods from nty tent. I ntj onco knew it to he tin enormous catamount. And judging front the motious of the anim d that lie was about to loip toward!) me, I re a rived to hazard a shot, although sensible of the uncer tainty of nty aim in tho dark. I accordingly levelled my piece, and csrefu{|y directing my aim beiwcun (he two bright orbs :hat were glowiug down upon mo with tho inlefasnoss of a furnace, I fired am) tho animal with a tre- tnendttuus leap and a scream that echoed for ' miles among tho mountains of tho lake,’ fell to ihe ground about half way from tho tree to whore 1 stood. My dug still refused to ap- proadt the spot, and knowing tho animat to bo dangorous even with the Inst grasp oflifo, I hastily .re-loaded for another fire. At this mo ment I heard a rustling among tho bushen, nnd discerning some dark object to movo in tho di rection of tho animal, and supposing ho was preparing for auuther lend—I fired. Soma- • thing fell to tho ground, aud my blood curled ns I hoard the sound of tho liom tn voice in-tho hollow groan that accompanied tho fpll! I has tened to the spot, tho lifeless body-of tho cata mount lay stretched upon _tho ground—and a little further I beheld a human being writhing in the agonies .of death. I applied a torch light to his faco, and to my unuiernblc grief, discov ered him to bo^ my Indian frifind. Having jjuon belated onrnu oxcursiou, lie w.ts probably approaching my tom for llio night at tho time I was reconnoitering tho cVnmoiim, aud having; seen, him fall he was cautiously approaching the animal when arrestod by the fatal shot which it was my luckless desliuy to give him. Thcwgh * unablo to speak, it fierce nnd vengeful express- inn was beaming in his eyes as ho beheld me.

And as .suspicion, in jho creed of (ho Indian, is but little bettor than conviction, and fearful of tho fiercy tortures which must follow in caso of such a conclusion in their minds, I concluded, perhaps unwisely, to dis- beett their euneavor to havo ffken him to uight tin! canted turn off t li.rn alter then owu fashion; or, had they in this, ilioy would have ambushed nnd shot which tho deceased had with him, and lashing f to their tribe, to murder 4 P“ M •bo body secret!/, •tV’uli this do(or- fushion; or, had they failo‘l tninatiou I took the rifle null several steel traps Hun.

My husband, said she, was formerly'a hunter on tho lakes, und ho there luucemly was the cause uf an uc- cidept whtcli terminated fatally to an ludiati, aud winch, it seems, they think he can only at one fur with his iite. Though they pass pea ceably through die country, and us yet have cum milieu no violence, still my husband too well knows ttieir deadly purpose.. How they have discovered his present residence is still unknown to him. But I clioq«e he should tell you his own stoiy.—Stay with us over tomor row; they will depart aud he will return. I consumed. _ Thu Indians uftcr reconnoitering the house, front different positions disappeared for the night. They repeated tho same sever al limes (hu next day, when towards night they disappeared, aud were, soon heard of several miles off, making their way northward. The, farmer rciuiued the next day, when he rglrt.od ad and tearful office. Though conscious ot my innocence and of being dictated only by prudence in thus disposiug of him to whom I could have wished an honorable interment, still a kind oi guilty feeling, and self condemnation weighed deeply on my mind. 'Even the mur muring winds that were sighing mournfully throuoh the lull pinos that stood towering along tho ahorse of tho lake seemed to ubraiii me; and the low wailings of (I10 waves, dashing sul lenly on the distant beach, seemed to fill on my oar in tho sounds of reproach fo r the deed I was committing; dark presentments ofapjiroach- iug danger oppressed and soak gloomily on my spirits. On arriving into the deep waters of (ho lake 1 lificd tho body over the sidt-of: hu canoe iuto the tviitor, and it immediately smile by tho weight of Iron by which it was encum bered, aud disappeared from my sight.
