There is a we|l and authenticated stor o'n Creek Indian, who would not leave his native land to folhuv his brothers to the far west, luit remained and lived on herds and roots, hunting the forests and swamps, like some s range spe until starvation drove Irm to surrender. He had a ri!h with a saw rounds ofpow , derand hall, which h’ did not expend on game,but re s-rved ford -fence against the attack of his enemies. The martyr-like patriotism exhibited by this son of tin- forest, is woitlty to be immortnliz and by a monu ment of marble. Last of the mighty trill', whose prowess once Stretched from Oconee’s gentle winding stream To the bold Chattahoochee’s western verge ; Who can behold thee, lonely as thou art, And weep noto’-r the hitter destiny And that imperious fat*', which swept the ranks Os a one- numerous tribe, from those old hills A id sunny val*s, like the rip° harvest fields B fore the reap r’s scythe 1 Thou art the last Os a great race, who lingers fondly yet Round th-'s*’ once happy Inuving grounds,now curs’d’ By the rud * ploug’islvve and the fatal axe. And thoip hast bravely shown thyself the son Os noble sir‘s*—refusing e’en the charm Os glittering ore, far the sad meh>t|y That rings among thy native forest trees, Ast)i -y fill h'lpl ‘ss ’n r, ath the woodman’s axe. Disdaining all the wealth of western cl mes For a few rising mounds of-arth, where sleep The ancient sires of tjiy fallen tribe, Y-s, th>u hast reeked the white man’s bitter hate, $ Ami dared withstand ilu h -llish tyranny Os purse-proud lords, who never fait one stream Oftcnder sentiment flow through their souls, That thou might wander o’er thy nativ * wilds, And drt am of happy scetv's forever fl *d, Till and -nth should con , a wdconrfa messenger, To bear thy spirit to the happy shores, VVlu-rc ever dwell the noble and the brave. And the last Id -ssing thou wouldst ask of man, W uld be, to let thy body sweetly rest B-neath its mother sod, where long have slept precious dutt. Oh, noble Creek! What patriot, who ndoies his native land And treasures up the drear sos early youth* But pit fas from his heart thy cruel fate W io would not weep to see h*s country lost, And buried from the light pf day, no mors To iWc in mighty powr.r * nv-ngc Its many wrongs. If there be one so base, I et him meet deth fur in a strangeT land, And sleep unpitiidon a foreign shore ; And then, and not till then, his wretch'd ghost Might f *e| the pangs this homeless wanderer felt, Who had no spot in this wide waste of earth, That he could call “hisown, his uutiyeland ,v ALGOUS.

Not more than forty winters, had pas sed their changes over that cold, proud brow; and though not hand-son)e-feat)ir,ed, yet there was something not uiiphsasing ii that stern, dark face; a face that involuntarily impressed the beholder with awe and wonder; a face at once expressing passion, sorrow, and pride; passion fireely subdued ; sorrow silently en dured ; and pride, deep rooted and inextinguish able. In a word ; it was an Indian face; and ! iess of sorrow than of pride,’ was marked up on its stern lineaments.—His lips was com pressed firmly ; and his wild, dark eye, flashed file as it rolled over the heaving wafers below and with a foot planted fp the slippery rock he leaned forward from his dangerous position an.d gazed fljxely towards the western bound, which the setting sun tinged with a cold light as it sunk to rest. At length, an almost indis tinct object became visible in the dim distance; but the rapifj eye of the Indian instantly detec ted its W.d raising his hand to his eye, he ga zed long and steadily through the doubled fin | gers at the quickly moving and enlarging ob ject, which us it came nearer, took the form of ! an Indian canoe, cutting with measured stroke* ; through the water, and gliding rapidly over the waves, as they took from the setting sun, a hundred varied, fantastic hues.

It was a strung The tall, powerful, anti majestic font.’, of the hard Indian Warrior; towering in pride and manly strength j defying hardship ; despising suffering, and physical torture t wildly free, in thought and action ; bending his stern, proud spirit, only to the great and mysterious God of the Indians ; and the I g it, tlelieaie figure of the meekeyed, gf.itle, and lovely prpatuie, whose timid graeuanJ sweetly retiring modes ty, showed the helpless reliance of woman’s all confiding faith. The young Indian bent her head, and kissed the broad hand of the dark Peoria ; and after some time during which the Chief spoke not, ; she ventured to break the silence and said, •You bade me meet you on the highest point of these rocks; lam here !’ The Peoria turned, us he heard those soft, music-bieathing tones; and taking Ihe girl in his powerful arms, leaned with her, far over the edge of the dizzy, fearful precipice ; and lived a long, intense on t)te western liori 7.(111, along which yut lingered a solitary line of light; and pointing to its chilling and dcso latc region in the cold sky, he demanded in a deep, stern tone—‘Know you what tribe of red-men inhabit that laud V ‘The Muomee’s’ replied the trembling girl. A \yj|d siirile passed over the Indian’s dark fen i li res. ‘Mark me, Yarro !’ he exclaimed, withdraw ing from llio rocks edge, and loosening his hold of her slight form. ‘Mark me | Ere live moons have shed their pale light over the wa ter, not onu of that accursed tribe shall be left on earth ! I will blast them, as the lightning hlasteth the tree!

In times gone. I there |jved a mighty Chief.—He lived in peace i mid happiness with his family and his tribe ;! vas friendly to the tribes around him, awl even sociable with the race of the Maomees : he often sent them presents, and asked no re turn hut their friendship ; for he was rich and injluelltiul; they were limes of peace, and no thought of treachery from the Maomees enter ed Ins mind; lie received them as friends, and sent the.n Irom him with presents. —But they } came down on him in an hour, and without a j token of their approach ! they bound his free limbs, and before his eyes they butchered his wife and his people J=-fJ)ey destroyed Ids wig wam, and Ids children tyere dyed in their moth ers blood ; and lie a.one, of all his tribe, was | left to life and revenge ! lam that Chief! the j last of my race ! ana so help me the Great Spiiit! while a single drop of blood runs in Huwussee’s veins,’■not o ne Maomee shall curse (he |,m<) / I will crush them as they did ray people.! add ihe spot where once stood the wigwams of the Maomees, I umha I s the hilj side where the beating Buffalo has passed in his withering fury—naked and desolate!’ The- shuddering. Yarro, made no reply; and a long silence ensued ; during which the In dian stood with” Ids bright eyes, fixed fiercely on the dark, ch -erlejs sky ; his powerful form firm, unbending ; and Ids swarthy features immovably, rigidly, severely firm—and Cn)d gllU bloodless as the hard rock at hisfeet. Blit suddenly turning towards the wondering girl, he ca)mly said—‘Yarro, I go from you ; but ere the tenth sun us the sixth month shall set to its bed of darkness, I will stand again on this high rock. But before that day’s sun shall rise again, the name of liawassee will be as the mournful sighing of the night-wind among the dmk and deserted Mountains !’ The darkness was now complete. Every object lor the space of a yard around, was one miscellaneous moss of impervious gloorjl ; and Ihe deep sound of the wave* as tbev dysfo ed heavily against the rocks, came with a sol emn Mid impressive swell to the ear. The Pe oria, without uttering a word, wrapped a large and thickly lined Buffaloskin around the deli cate Indian girl, and again taking her in his strong arms, descended with a rapid and uner ring step, tiie rugged, precipitous and tjangp rotts side of the rook, fid springing from crag to cr*g, i ids perilous course, soon reached the shore of thodesolate Lake—and placet} the young Yurro in the canoe by the side of her protector —who with Indian patience and en durance, had waited her return. In a few se conds, the sound of the oars had died away— and as the last stroke fell, with its distant and sad cadence on his ear, the dark Peoria turned to begin his solitary pilgrimage, to the land of the fated Mi omecs. ‘My Yarro! my sweetest, my fondest:’ ex claimed a young Indian Chief, as clasping her la his bosom, on the banks of that lonely Lake —and loosing in her soft black eyes, he read her inmost feelings, and fondest thoughts. ‘Eagle-eye —my dearest —my noble hunter!’ and the innocent Ytjrro nestled softly to the young Chief's bosom. Eagle-eye be.qt his manly head, and pressed his lips to thp*e of the blushing girl, gazing long and passionately on her sweet face, now lighted pp by the bright- VOL. I.

Long the young Indian lovers sat on that lone spul ; talking in their strange, yet sweet. language, of their hopes for the future; theirJ love > llteir constancy; and thotr happiness and when the moon arose and shed her pale light over the scene, sodurk and dreary looked the lonely, desolate Lake with its ruttjtey and overwhelming cliffs, that the young Indians, wild and unimaginative though they were, in voluntarily paused as they were departing, and gazed over t he strange dretjry but sublime and singularly imposing landscape, with the cold moon shedding a light, cheerless and uncertain, over the sullenly washing waters, the high, awful ‘cloud-capped towers,’ of the frowning- Mountains; the bleak, desolate, and hueless sky—all formed a picture so impressive and wildly grand, even those .strange children of Nature’s rearing, were struck by the sublimity and awful grandeur of that rude plaee, where human fool had seldom sounded. ‘My Yarro, where is Ijuwassee?’ asked the young L'l.icf, as the shuddering girl drew clo ser to his side. ‘Gone to fulfil a mighty trust,’ replied the Indian girl, solemnly; and she added after a moments thought—‘Eagle-eye, he is a dreadful n}ai>! the flush of his eyo is terrible to his foes 1 Ah ! it is as the beautiful lightning, nnt} as deadly as it is bright!

There was poetry ip that wild Indian girl 1 there was poetry in lierlanguage ; herbeauty ; and her deep devoted love her single hearted gratitude, and sweet simplicity ; and purity of thought! Deny it who will ; but there is in that slandered, illtised, and vindictive race, $ singular blending of the beautiful and the trna with all that is most feurful, and wild, in human nature.

There is much of originul beauty of mind richness ofsentiment—depth of feeling—purity of thought, in those peculiar people—and were they divested of their novelty of character, they would loose much of the interest and charm, which in a primitive state, they in vatic ably inspire.

The young Indians were startled from this revery, by a sound ofsuah frightful and appalr ling suddenness, that it caused thorn both tp start, with a feeling of involuntary alarm ; and Eagle-eye looking around to see whence pro ceeded those hollow, loud, and fearful screams, beheld at a short distance, that strange and mnnioys bird, whose noiseless approach and dismal howl, bode death to the nocturnal dis turber of his gloomy solitudes. A cold thrill passed through the framesofthe Indians; and they quickly and silently, turned to leave th? dark, dismal, and fearful place, * + * *"'* * ** 4 4* Sijf giontl}.s passed away ; and trije to itis wtrd, the dark avenger of the martyred Peori-r as, stood again on that high and sky-reaeliing rock—which seemed in its dizzy height to pierce the cold clouds above.—The scene was striking indeed, with its mighty mountains, ri sing iu awful majesty, one above another; givr ing a wilt} sublimity and loftiness to its aspect t the moonlighted and irregular cliffs, whit theijr siern, frowning, weather-beaten brows; the sullen murmur of the far-down Lake; but more strikingly, more sublime, than all around it, was the towering form of the mighty Indian Chief, as he stood with the cold, pale moon beams, resting on his hard, stern, and immova hie features; Hfc dark, proud eye, gaijtipg full and coldly on the comfortless sky ; his lip* compressed intensely together ; his ttlive-hued cheek, livid, and rigidly firm ; and his vvholt) powerful frame seeming as motionless and in l!evtitle as if made of the cold, hard hand of iron. There he stood; calm, immoveable, rigidly severe; life evinced only by the fitful glgficf of the fiery eye: with a form and a heart, which well became that strange, wild, isolated spot. Theye he stood ; a haughty, stern den izen of Nature ; a ‘stoic of the woods, a man without a tear,’ whose mind all-powerful and mighfy ; whose lion-strength, and giant pow ers, were all given to one high, solemn purpose —revenge!
