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 “* /. to whom Caroline Campbell had occasion ally made such gaudy present* a# were likely / to attract the savage fancy.

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. iMiui mm gggg 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.” Edinburgh Observer. t 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 | selves in the world, he was very properly ; said to have raised many n devil. 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.” Irish Wit. —An English officer, who was called to suppress a riot in some part of Ire land, upon arriving on the ground, ronimnnd edtlie mob to disperse, when one of tho num ber stepped up to him. and said—" You wont its to be off, to lx* sure, don't you?” “Yes,” answered the officer, “and you bail better go 1 iiuiek, for you wont like the smell of gunpow der.” “The smell of powder, did you say ? tin* devil the bit (lo we care for that— it's the balls we fear.” Charlotte, said a gentleman to his daugh ter one day, you are really too giddy, and ■ I fear never give yourself time for reflec tion. Pott honor, then, pn, replied the 1 young lady laughing, you tnay make your- ! self perfectly easy on that account, for 1 j generally spend half the day at the looking glass. If we were a physic-ian we should certainly igo to Iturmah. There, it is stated, when a 1 young woman is taken very ill. an agreement is made with the doctor, that if he cures the pa -1 tit tit he may have her for his trouble. If she | dies, however, he is to pay them her value.— i I Successful practitioner* are said to have large , families of females who have I'vrome their | property in this way.
