It was.tlini of a beautiful female. She might
Imvb bden twenty years of age; but there was an
almost childish expression in her countenance--a
softness, a delicacy, imd a sweetness of amtla—*
which I have seldont sftetl in the features of those

year. Our seitlcir(ents imd increased rapidly, and
tile comforts and'ilplicaclos of life were begiadtng
to bo felt, BlU't the weary privations, aniT sevefo
trials to .which wd "had been subjected. .Tbo rci^, *
inon were few, anil did not molest us. Tho iicafts
of filer forest mid mountains were ferocious, but wu
sullcred Utile from.ibeiti. Tlio duly immediate
danger to which we wore exposed resulted front
tlio rattlesnakes which infested our neighborhood.
Three or four of the settlers were bitten by them,
nnd ilIl‘i 1 in terrible agonies. Tlie tndiaus oft-
told us frightful stories of this snake, und its ]low
ers of fasciuntion, and although they were gener
ally believed, vet for myself, I confess, 1 was rp-
liter amused than convinced by their legends.
. "In'one of my hunting cxcuhiuus abroad, on,a
fino morning—-it was just at this time of the year
—1 was 'accompanied by my wile. 'Twos ,'n

leaves which clothed to profusion tile, wreathing
brunches nbovo us. I Imd left iny companion fyf
a Rlioruintc in pursuit of. game - , and iu climbing .
a rugged ledge of rocks, iuterpersed with shrubs
and dwarfish trees, I was startled by a quick, gra
ting rattle. I looked forward. Ou the edgo ut
loosoned men lay a large rattlesnake, coiling him
self, us if for the deadly spring. lie was within it
few feekofinO, mid I paused lor an instant lostir-*
vey him. I know not why, but 1 stood still, and
looked nt tlid deadly serpeut witli a strange feeling
of curiosity.. Suddenly he unwound his coil, as if
rcioatiug from his purpose of hostility, and ruisiug
ins lioud, hu.iixcd liis bright, fiery eye directly up
on lily own. A chilling arid indescribable seasu-

ut least; it sounded iu. tny ear-—a strange, sweet
melody, faint us tbut wbteli melts from' tlie throat
of the humming bird. Then the tints of his body
deepened, uud changed und glowed like the
changes of a licnutifui tilt rope, green, purple,
and gold, until 1 lost sight of the serpent entirely,
and saw Only Wild and curiously woven circle^ of
strange colors, quivering arouud ine like an ut-

blackness as I led Iter away. We were at aeon-
