MISCELLANEOUS;
•nd this doty wu to be performed alter
nately.
- On one of these occasions after White
had filled his canteens, he sat a few mo
ments, watching tbe limpid element as it
came gurgling oat of tbe boeom of the earth ;
the light sound of footsteps caught hi% prac
tised ear; and upon turning round, he saw
two squaws within a few feet of bim ; Uieee
upon turning the jut of the hill had thus
suddenly come upou him. The elder squaw
gave oue of those far-reaching whoops, pe
culiar to tbe Indians. White at once com
prehended his perilous situation—for ’f tbe
alarm should reach the camp, be and h«s
companion must inevitably perish. Self
preservation impelled bim to inflict a noise
less death ou tbe squawa, and in such
a manner as to leave no trace behind.—
Ever rapid in tbougbt, aud prompt in ac
tion, he sprang upon his victims with tbe
rapidity and power of a phanther, and
grasping the throat of each, with one bound
he sprang into tbe Hockhocking, and rapid
ly thrust the bead of the elder woman under
the water, and making strong efforts to sub
merge the younger, who, however, power
fully resisted.
During the short struggle, tiie younger
female addressed bim in his own language,
though almost in inarticulate sounds. Re
leasing his hold, she informed bim, that
ten years before, she had been made a pris
oner, on Grave Creek Flats, and that the
Indians in her presence butchered her
mother and two sisters ; and that an only
remaining brother had beeu captured with
her, who succeeded on the second night
in making his escape; but wbat bad become
of him she knew not.
During this narrative, White, unobserv
ed by the girl, had let go his grasp on the
eldersquaw, whose body soon floated where
it would not probably soon be found. He
now directed tiie gill hastily to follow him,
and with his usual energy and speed, push-

Give glory to tbe Lord, most high !
Spread wide thy beams o’er all the earth;
Praise Hint whose help is ever nigh,
Whose hand it was that gave thee birth.
Yes ! day by day repeat the sound
Of praise to bim who rules above;
In all thy bright and glorious round.
Give honor to the God of Love!
As darkness vanishes away.
When thou hast risen and shinest forth.
And all is bright and perfect day
On this our world, from sooth to north:
So when God's moral light appears
O’er this benighted world of oars,
Our gloomy night, our doubts and fears,
Are banished by its sacred powers.
A light springs up within our souls.
Celestial brightness shines around ;
Our time with joy still onward rolls,
And music swells in every sound.
Eternity stands just in view ;
Our waiting, longing spirits rise.
Our voices then we tune anew,
Our praises almost reach the ikies.

NARROW ESCAPE OP TWO SCOOTS.
The history of many of the pioneers of the
West is replete with bold adventures and hair
breadth escapes. We copy from the lecture of
Sen. Sanderson the following thrilling narrative
of a visit of two gallant Scouts to (he spot where
he town of Lancaster now stands—their suc

of a female prisoner—and their narrow and
oer’dous escape from their wary enemy.
pre-eminent for nature’s richest gifts—and
the portion of it whereon Lancaster now
stands, was marked as the most luxuriant
and picturesque, and became the seat of an
Indian village, at a period so early that the
‘memory of mar; runneth not parallel there
to.”
On the green sward of the prairie was
held many a rude gambol of the Indians ;
and here, too, was many an assemblage of the
warriors of one of the most powerful tribes
taking council for a “war path” upou some
vie re cautiously ascending,
carefully keeping under cover. Soon the
two scouts saw the swathy faces of the fee,
as.they glided from tree to tree, and rock,
to rock, until the whole base of the Mount
was ruirounded, and all hopes of escape
cut off.
In this peril nothing was left other than
to sell their lives as dearly as they could ;
this they resolved to do. and advised the
girl to escape to the Indians and tell them
she bad been a captive to tbe scouts. She

.hey carefully observed the movements ta
king place on the prairie. Every day
brought an accession of warriors to those
already assembled, and every day the scouts
wiltiessed from their eyerie, the horse ra
cing, leaping, running and throwing the
deadly tomahawk by the warriors. The
old sachems looking on with indifference
—the squaws for the most part, engaged
in their usual drudgeries, and the papoo
ses manifesting all the noisy and wayward
joy of childhood.
The arrival of any new party of warri
ors was hailed by the terrible war-whoop,
which, striking the mural face of Mount
Pleasant, was driven back into the various
indentations of the surrounding hills, pro
ducing revibration on revibration* and
echo on echo, till it seemed as if ten thou
sand fiends were gathered in their orgies.
Such yells might well strike terror into the
bosoms of those unaccustomed to them.—
To our scouts these were but mattial mu
sic—strains which waked their watchful
ness, and newly strung their iron frames
—from their early youth had they been al
ways on the frontier, and therefore well prac
ticed in all the subtlety, craftandcunning, as
well as knowing the ferocity and blood thirs
ty preseverence of the savage. They were
therefore not likely to be circumvented by
the cunning of their foes ; and without a
desperate struggle, would not fall victims
to the scalping knife. On several occasions,
small parties of warriors left the prairie and
ascended the Mount ; on which occasions,
our scouts would hide in the fissures of the
rocks, or lying by the side of eume lone
prostrate tree, cover themselves with the
sear and yellow leaf, and again leave their
hiding places when their uninvited visiters
had disappeared.
For food they depended on jerked ven
ison and cold corn bread, with which their
knapsacks had been well stored. Fire
they dare not kindle, and the report of one
of their rifles would bring upon them the
entire force of the Indians. For drink they
depended on some rain water, which stood
still in excavations of the rocks; hut in* few
days this store was exhausted, & M’CleUand
and White must abandon their enterprise
or find a new supply. To accomplish this
most hazadous affair, M’Clelland being the
elder, resolved to make the attempt—with
his trusty rifle in his grasp, and two can-
teens sit ungacrosshis.shoulders, hecautious-
ly descended to the praire, and skirting the
hills on the north as much as possible within
the hazel thicket, he struck a course for the
Hockhocking river. He reached its mar
gin, and turning an abrupt point of a hill,
be found a beautiful fountain of limpid wa
ter, now known as the Cold Spring, within
a few feet of the river. He filled bis can
teens and returned io safety to his watchful
companion. It was now determined to
have a full supply of fresh water every day.
scouts.
-After bravely maintaining the fight in
front, and keeping the enemy in check,
they discovered a new danger threatening
them. Tbe wary foe now made every pre
paration to attack them in flank, which
could be most successfully and fatally done
by reaching an isolated rock lying in one
of the ravines on the southern hill side.
This rock once gained by the Indians, they
could bring lhe scouts under point blank
shot of the rifle, without the possibility of
escape. Our brave scouts saw tbe itope-
lessness of their situation, which nothing
could avert but a brave companion and an
unerring shot—them they had not. Bat
the brave nevet despair. With this cer
tain fate resting upon them, they continu
ed calm, and as calculating as the stiong-
est desire of vengeance on a treacherous
foe could produce.
Soon M’Clelland saw a tall and swarthy
figure preparing to spring from a cover so
near the fatal rock, that a single bound
must reach it. and all hope be destroved.—
He felt that all depended on one advanta
geous shot, although but. one inch of the
warrior’s body was exposed, and that at a
distance of one hundred yards—lie resol
ved to risk all—coolv he raised his rifle to
his eye, carefully shading tbe sight with his
hand, he drew a bead,so sure that he felt
conscious it would do— bo touched tbe hair
trigger with his finger—tbe hammer came
down, but in place of striking fire, it crush
ed his flhit into a hundred fragments
Although he folt that the savage must reach
tiie fatal rock before he couldadjust south
er flint, he proceeded to the task with the
utmost composure, casting many a fugitive
glance towards the fearful point. Sudden
ly he saw the warrior stretching every mus
cle for the leap—and with the agility of a

death shot from some unknown hand. A
hundred voices from below re-echoed the
terrible shout, and :t was evident that they
had lost a favorite warrior, as well ts being
foiled for a time is tbe Boost important
movement.
A very few moments proved that the ad
vantage so mysteriously gained would be
of short duration, for already the scouts
caught momentary glimpses of a stalwart
warrior, cautiously advancing towards the
cover so recently occupied by a fellow com
panion. Now, loo, the attack in front was
