AN AMERICAN TRADITION.
* BY MR#. CHI Ist).
■f
The county of Stafford, New Hampshire, is
remarkable for its wild and broken scenery,—
liaiigcs of lulls, lowering olio above another,
oh it eager to look upon the beautiful eountry,
winch alur off lies sleeping in the embrace of
the clouds- precipices, from which the eagle
delights to build liis eyrie—dells rugged and
tangled with dark and deep ravines, form the
magnificent characteristic of this picturesque
region.
A high precipice, called Chocorua’s Cliff, is
rendered peculiarly interesting by a legend,
which tradition alone has saved from oblivion.
This spot, being in the midst of very roman
tic scenery, is little known, und less visited;
for the vicinity is, ns yet, utitraversed by rail
roads or canals, and no mountain house, perch
ad on the tremendous battlements, allures the
traveller hither to mock the majesty of nature
wim the insipidities < f fashion.
In olden times, when Untie and Whnlley
passed for wt/./.ards mid mountain spirits
among the superstitious, the vicinity of the
spot we have been describing was occupied by
a very amall colony, which, cither from dis
c mt hi or enterprise, had retired into this re
mote part of New Hampshire. Most of them
were ordemr, men, led to this independent
mode of life by Impatience of restraint, which
as frequently accompanies vulgar obstinacy as
generous pride. Hut there was one master
spirit uinoug them, who wasenpubte of a high
er destiny than he ever fulfilled. The con
sciousness of thisstampedsom ining of proud
humility on the face of Cornelius Campbell;
something of a haugnty spirit, strongly curb
ed by circumstances lie could not erontrol, and
at winch he scorned to murmur, lie assumed
superiority; but unconsciously there wns
thrown around him the spell of intellect, amt
his companions felt, they knew not why, that
he was nnumg them, but not of them. Ills
Stature was gigantic, aud lie hud the boid quick
tread of one who had wandered frequently
and fearlessly among the terrible hiding places
of nature, fit# voice was harsh, but hiswholo
countenance possessed singular capabilities for
tenderm ss ot expression; and sometimes, mi
ll t the g ntle influence of doim stie excite
ment, his haul features would he rapidly light
ed up, seeming like the sunshine dying over
the shaded fields in uti April day.
I lis companion was one peculiarly calculated
to • xoite and retain the deep strong energies
of manly love. She had possessed extraordi
nuiy beauty; and had, iu the full maturity of
iui excellent judgment, relinquished several
splendid alliances, and incurred her father's
displeasure for the sake of Cornelius Camp
bell. Had political eirrumstVuiccs proved fav
orable, his talents aud ambition would un
questionably have worked out a path to emolu
ment and fame, but lie had been a zealous urn!
a tivu enemy of the Stuarts, and the restora
tion of Charles the Second was a death blow
to his hopes of advancement in Ins own eoun
try. Immediate (light became necessary;
Alltel*! i was the chosen plaee of refuge, and
to this solitary spot ho withdrew with his
family.
V small settlement In such a remote place,
was of course subject to inconvenience, and
occasional sufferings. From the Indians they
received neither injur# nor insult. No cause
Os quarrelling had over arisen; and although
their frequent visits were sometimes trouble
some, they never had given indications of
jealousy or malice. Chocorua was considered
a prophet among them, and, us such, mi object
of peculiar respect, lie had a mind which
education and motive w ould have nerved w ith
giant strength*, but growing up ill savage free
dom, it wasted itself in fury and ungovernable
passions. There w.ts something fearful in the
quiet haughtiness of his lip—it seem.-. 1.50 tike
slumbering power, too proud vo be lightly
Mused, und too implacable vo sleep again. In
lit- -mall black fiery eye, expression lay coiled
u, like a beautiful snake. The w hite people
knew tli it his tfatred would be terrible; but
they had never proved it. und even the ehil
rti*ti bggf me too much accustomed to him to
wrjß''ntnb
fNtocorua had u sou about nine or ten years

wa tempestuous. Home hail been tohimthe
only verdant spot in the wide desert of life. In
his wife and children he had garnered up all his
life-heart, and now they were to:n from him.—
The remembrance of her love dung to him like j
the death-grapple of ndrownmg man, sticking ;
him down, down into darkness and death. This
followed by aealm a thousand times more ter
rible, the creeping agony of despair, that brings
wilh it no power of remstence.
1 If the dead could feel
The icy worm around him steal.”
For many days those who knew and rever
enced him feared that lh spark of reason was
forever extinguished. But it rekindled again,
and with it curie a wild demoniac spirit of n
v-ngw. The death-groan of ChoCorufl would
make him smlle< von in It is dreams—and when
he look'-d, death seemed too pitiful a vengeance
for the anguish that was eating into his very
soui-
Choeorua’sbrethren were absent on a hunt
ing expedition when he committed the murder;
and those w ho watched his movements observ -
ed that he frequently elimed the high preci
pice, w hich afterwards took his name, probably
looking out for their return. Here Campbell
resolved to effect his deadly purpose. Having
traced his dark-minded prophet to the lair, he
was one morning startled at a loud voice, from
beneath the precipice, commanding him to
throw himself into the deep abyss below. He
knew the voice of Ins enemy, and replied
with an Indian’s calmness, “the Great Mpirit
gave life to < ‘hocorua, and Choeortia will not
throw it away at the command of n while
mail.” “Then hear the Great Spirit speak iu
the white man’s thunder!” exclaimed Gamp
hell, as In* pointed Ins rille to the. precipice.—
Chocorua, though fierce and fearless as the
panther, had ncvcroverconie his dread of fire
arms. lie placed liis hands upon Ins ears to
shut out the stunning report; the. next moment
the blood bubbled fromnisneck,and he reeled
fearfully on the edge of the precipice. But,
recovering and raising himself on his hands, he
spoke in a voice, rendered more terrific as its
lniskinesH increased —“Acurse upon ye, #hite
men! May the Great Spirit enrseye ujfci h>
speaks in the clouds, and his w ords niWirc !
Chocorua had a son—and ye killed hiinwhile ,
his eye still loved to look on the bright twnnd
the green earth! The evil spirit breath death
upon your cattle ! Your graves lie in the war
path of the Indians! Panthers howl, and
vvoiv is fatten over yqiir bones! Chocorua goes
to the Great K]iirfC-tiis curse stays with the
white men.”
The prophet sunk upon the ground—still ut
tering innu iblc maledictions—and they left his
bones to whiten in the sun. But Ins curse rest
ed on the s Itlement. The tomahawk and the
scalping kuiiy were busy among them; the
winds tore upwrccs and hurled them at their
dwellings; their crops were blasted,their rat
tle died, and sickness came upon their strongest :
men. At last the remnant of them departed 1
from tju* fatal spot, to mingle with more popu
lous and fortunate colonies. Campbell became
a hermit, seldom seeking hi* fellow* men; ntul
two years after tho dispersion of this colony,
lie wns found dead in his hut.
To this day the town of Burton, in New
Hampshire is remarkable for a pestilence
which infects its cattle; and the superstitious
think that Chocorun’s spirit still sits enthroned
upon his precipice,breathing curses upon them.

Suhi.ime and Ridiculous.— We. have never !
seen the trulh of the maxim, “but one step from I
the sublime lo the ridiculous.” better demon- 1
struted tlflm in the following lines;
“Hermit hoar, In solemn cell
Wearing out life’s evening gray,
Strike thy bosom, sage, and toll.
What is bliss, nnd which the way.
Thu* I spoke, and speaking sigh’d,
Scarce repressed the startling tear,
When the hoary sage replied—
“ Come, my lad, nnd drink some beer!”
Quite as Goon.—The following is from the
pen of the illustrious port, Moore.
“I never hud a bird or flower
That did not fly or fade awav;
And thus from early childhood's hour
I’ve seen my fondest hopes deray.”
The following subjoined parody was perpe
trated by the humorous genius of a Southern
editor:
1 never had a bit of bread
Particularly large and wiik*.
That did not fall upon the floor.
And ithmijs on the butter'd tide.
“We must be unanimous,” observed Han
cock, on the oeconion of signing the Declara
tion of Independence; “ihere must be no pull
ing different ways; we must alt hang togeth
er.” “ Yes,” added Franklin, “we must ull !
hang together, or most assuredly we shall all
hang eeparattly!”
A Clever Fool.—lmmediately after the
Rochdale Radical demonstration, recently, the
clown or fool toihe ring at the Rochdale Circus
came forward Into the middle ofthcring, there
being not less than 2,otkt persons in the house,
and appealing to the audience for their suffra
ges, called upon them to elect him their mem
ber. He said, “Gentlemen, my qualifications
are that I am a fool and a beggar; 1 will promise
to till my own pockets first, and then yours if
there is any thing to spare. I will bring in Hills
to do away with all taxes, and keep every poor
inon out of the public purse without work. Kv
ry man shall eat, driuk, get drunk, and beat hi-*
wife to boot, without paying for it 1 will a-;
bolish laborer wort -."livery man shall have J
ns many clod'"* as lie likes without paying u
siiiiib* twitting for them. 1 will also abolish
idl magistrates.judges, police officer#, bailiffs, j
jails, sheriff*, jailors, executioner#, stocks, ami ,
whipping posts, as 1 hold them to be directly
opposed to true and rational liberty.” At this
stage of the address, the master of tho ring,
fearing that this fool might in his satire be going
too fur with the audience, pulled the chair from
under the |driot’s foot, and whipped him
round the ring, the clown exclaiming “Oh, sir,
you know how to justly pay a patriot’s wages.”
A few days since, a little ragged urchin had
been sent by a mechanic to collect a small hill
which had just become due. He began in the
usual way, by becoming more and more im- j
portuno; at length the gentleman’s patience
being exhausted, he said to him, “You needn’t
dun mo so sharply. Fill not going to run away
at present.” , “ 1 don’t suppose you are,” said
the lad, scratching his head. “ but my master
is, and he wants the money.”
A good reason. —A young Amoroso at a po
litical festival, gave the following toast;
“The Ladies. — \Vc admire them, because
of their beauty; respect them, because oftheir
virtue: adore them, because of their intelli
gence; and love them, because ire can't help
it!”
At the beginning of the reign of Charles 11..
they had no women on the stage’—the female
pari# were performed by men. The King
coming early to the theatre, the aetors to pa
city hito, and he loved a jest, requested his
Majcfly to have patience, as the Queen was
-iatjitte#^are<f.’
xvtcuvto sh coitntt
the farmer and his FEAS.
forty years ago, a fanner at Ed
dleston, in I’elildcs-shirc, had a fidd of
peas lying close to the church yard wall.
When nearly ripe, the youngsters of the ‘
village often stole them after dark. Geo.
| was determined to watch his peas one
sight; so off he went, and seated himself
upon the top of the wall for the purpose
! of seeing around him. It so happened that
j two young fellow* of the village determin- :
ed to frighten old Grorge. They repaired t
lo the church yard, the one with a hlaek
sheet around him, and the other with a i
white one, but unknown to each other. ;
The one with a black sheet was there bc
, fore George, and erept under a gravestone;
j the other waited until he saw the old man
! fairly seated upon the top of the wall; he
then got his sheet around him. and advanc
ed strait for George, little dreaming what
was awaiting himself. \\ hen about half
way through the church yard, the hlaek
ghost crept from his hiding place, aud |
coming round the end of the rhurrh, met 1
his white friend right in the fare ; both
stood aghast—both fainted and fell. After
a little while the white fellow rose and
looked around him, when he sees again the
hlaek spirit rising from the earth ; he took
to his heels and ran, cleared the wall at a
hound, never oner looking behind him, till
within the house, and the door shut. His
companion, equally frightened, ran off at j
the other side, hut ilid not escape so well,
for instead of running down by the bridge
over Kddlenton water, he never saw in his
road, but plunged right over, head and ears j
to the bottom of the stream. George ho- j
nest man, kept his seat, and when he saw ;
; the spiriis ascending and descending a
mong the graves, he said, that, “ bnith
black deils and white deils might rise, but 1
he would watch his peas.”

printer’s devils.
There are two accounts of the origin of
this title. One of them says there was
one Moris. Lcville, or D’villr, who came
over with William the Conqueror, in com- |
patty with De Lattue. I)o Vim. Hr Val, He
Vshwood, He I,'tli lie, D’lfinpding, Ate.
A drscendrnt of this Monsieur Deville, in
the direct line, was taken by the famous
Cazton, in 1171 .* who, providing very ex
pert, became afterwards bis apprentice, ‘
and in time an eminent printer; from him
the orders of printers’ Orvilles, or detils,
| took their names. The other account say*,
’ if they took it from infernal devils, it was I
not because they were messengers fre- \
queutly sent iu darkness, and appearing ns !
scoffers would suggest, but upon a very
reputable account; for John Fust, or
Faustus, of Meutz, In Germany, was the j
first inventor of the art of printing, which
art so surprised the world that they j
thought hint a conjuror, and called him
Hr. Faustus, and h!;< art the hlaek art. A* 1
he kept a constant succession of boy* (o .
; run errands, who were alwavs very black, ;
! some of whom being raised to be his *p
-1 prentices, and afterward* raising them

A Farmer’s Notion or the OprosrrioN.—
A farmer in the neighborhood of Godalnting,
England, dining withone of the inhabitants of
that town, a short time since, nnd politic* be
ing introduced, the conduct of the opposition
was commented on by some of the party;
when tho farmer observed, “Why, now, gen
j tlemcn, I can compare their general conduct
; to nothing better than to that of some of iny
pigs! I feed them with peas in my farm yard ;
: those who happen to he w ithin the gate eat the j
peas very orderly and quietly—yon hear no ;
noise or grumbling amongst them; but present- ’
j lyeome a parrel of other pigs from the field,
and begin without the gate; they run to this
- side ana then to that, push the gate with their
noses, squeak, halloo, mid kick up a and distur
bance; but the moment I opened the gate, and
• introduce them to the peas, they become os
quiet us so muity mice m n full barn.”
