More Cruel than War.
A correspondent of the Kansas
City Times revives a striking poem,
of which this is the history : A south
ern prisoner of war at Camp Chase,
Ohio, after pining of sickness in tire
hospital of that station for some time
and confiding to his friend and fellow
captive, Colonel W. S. Hawkins, of
Tennessee, that he was heavy of heart
because his affianced bride in Nash
ville did not write to him, died just
before the arrival of a letter in which
the lady curtly broke the engagement.
Col. Hawkins had been requested by
bis dying comrade to open any epis
tle which should come tor him there
after and, upon reading the letter in
question, penned the tollowing versis
tied answer. The lines were imper
fectly given by the Southern press
just after the war, and deserve revival
if only for the sake of the corrections
requisite to do justice to their senti
nient aud win for them a wider ap
preciation :
MY FRIEND.
Your letter ?a<ly came too late,
For heaven had claimed its own ;
Ah, sudden change—from prison bars
Unto the great white throne!
And yet 1 think he would have stayed,
To live lor bis disdain,
Could be have read the careless words
Which you have sent in vain.
So full of patience did he wait,
Through many a weary hour,
That o’er his simple soldier-faith
Not even death had pow’r ;
And you —did others whisper low
Their homage in your ear,
As though amongst their shallow throng
Ilis spirit had a peer 1
I would that you were by me now,
To draw the sheet aside
And see how pure the look he wore
The moment when he died.
The sorrow that you gave to him !
Had left its weary trace,
Ax ’twere the shadow of the Cross
Upon his pallid face.
“ Her love,” he said, could change for me
The winter’s cold to spring ; ”
Ah, trust of a fickle maiden’s love,
Thau art a hitter thing!
For when these valleys, bright in May
Once more with blossoms wave,
The northern violets shall blow
Above his humble grave.
Your dole of scanty words had been
But one more pang to bear,
For him who kissed unto the last
Your tress of golden hair :
I did not put it where he said,
For, when the angels come,
I would not have them find the sign
Os falsehood in the tomb.
I’ve read your letter, and I know
The wiles that you had wrought
To win that noble heart of his,
And gained it—cruel thought!
What lavish wealth men sometimes give
For what is worthless all;
What manly bosoms heat for truth
In folly’s falsest thrall!
Thou shall not pity him, for now
H,» sorrow has and end ;
Yet would that you could stand with me
Beside my fallen friend;
And I forgive you for his sake,
As he —if it be given
May e’on be pleading grace for you
Before the court of Heaven.
To-night the cold winds whistle by,
An I my vigil keep
Within the prison dead-house, where
Few mourners come to weep,
A rude plank coffin holds his form;
Yet death exaits his lace,
And I would rathei see him thus
Than -clasped in your embrace.
To-night your bonne may shine w ith lights
And ring with merry song,
And you be smiling, as your soul
llad done no deadly wiong ;
Your hand so mi* that none would think
It penned these words of pain;
Your skin so wlnte-would God. your heart
Were hall as free from stain.
I’d rather be my comrade dead
Than you in life supreme
For yours the sinner’s waking dread,
And his the martyr’s dream.
W’huir serve we in tins lile, we s. rve
In that winch is to come;
lie chouses Ins way; you yours; let God
Fromm nee the fitting doom.

CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 2, 1573.
A Terrible Conflict between
a White Man and an Indian.
BY A CITIZEN OF WHITFIELD COUNTY,
GEORGIA.
11l or about the year 1843, the wri
ter met with Major John Seaborn,
whose exploits and adventures among
the Cherokee Indians, in the early
settlem* lit. of the Northern portion ot
I Georgia, may be remembered by the
surviving pioneers of that period He
related to me many interresting inci
dents connected with his life and
travels among the natives. One ot
these was a hand to hand conflict with
a powerful Cherokee Indian, the detail
I of which I well remember
1 war, said he, at the time of the
occurence I am about to relate, in mv
J # 1
25th year, and in the prime of vigo
; l’ous manhood. I stood 6 feet in
ches in my stockings, weighed 19J
pounds, and in the games a id athletic
i sports ol the times 1 had never found
my match—nor was I deficient in
those traits id courage and so con.
mon, and, I may say, so necessary in
those perilous times. Possessing
a wild,.roving disposition, l had
lelt my home in North Carolina, hav
ing no friends or companion in my
ramble save a huge brindie dog, a
noble and faithful animal, ever ready
to do my bidding. By a peculiar
whistle between my fingers, I could
call him from a great distance, and
had taught him many useful tricks
and performances.
On one occasion, when I was in
the employ of a surveying party, we
camped at a point on the banks ot the
Etowah river, in what is now known
as the 17th District ot Bartow coun
ty, and not more than miles from
a large cave. Near our camp, at a
large spring, there was tt missionary
station and with the missianaiies a
party of pioneers who were engaged
in the manufacture of salt-pet re,
which they procured from dirt hauled
from the cave to the spring and used
in. the preparation of gun powder.
This station was between our camp
and the cave.
One beautiful morning I concluded
to visit the missionaries, and started
out tor this purpose along a dim trail
-through the torest. I had proceeded
about the fourth of a mile when the
sound of human voices attracted my
attention. With the caution acquir
ed by long residence among a trickv
and dangerous people, I quickly step
ped behind a large bush and listened
intently. The voices approached,
and two figures emerged into view
not more than thirty yards iroin me—
the one an Indian of gigantic size, the
other the most beautiiul female my
eyes had ever beheld. She was seat
ed on a jet black pony of fine metal
and proportion. Her position in tire
saddle was most graceful. A blonde
of faultless form, features beautiful
beyond description, and with long.,
golden, waivy tresses profusely hang
ing down upon the back of her steed.
As the savage held the bridle bit, with
tomahawk in hand, a glance sufficed to
show me that she was not a voluntary
companion in the journey. Indeed, I
had scarce had time to form tnis opin.
ion of the situation before all doubt
was removed oy a sudden and ineffec
tual effort on the part of the fair rider
to extricate herself from his giasp by
a jerk of the Bridle, which caused tire
pony to rear almost erect upou his
hind feet, whereupon the savage, still
clinging to the bridle, raised his tom
aliawk, aud exclaimed :
“Hold, white fawn, or by the Great
Spirit my tomahawk shall drink your
blood ! Me, the son of a great Chief,
must have pretty white squaw in his
wigwam.”
Here the motion of his uplifted
weapon caused a violent surge by the
pony, throwing the rider, who was in
stantly grasped by the tierce savage. ;
With an almost overwhelming im
pulse of rage and fury, my heart
throbbing aud my very breath stir
pressed with excitement of the mo
ment, I sprang forward with the leap
of a panther, and with a yeUgprtiieh
so startled the savage that he loosed
his hold upon the lady and made sev
eral bounds from her towards the
woods.
Seeing me, she exclaimed :
“Oh ! sir save me ! Save me ! ”
The savage now turned and stood
at bay, not twenty steps distant.
The pony stood trembling near the
lady.
“Mount! Mount! ” said I “quick,
and flee ! ”at the same time lifting
her into the saddle.
As she moved oft', I faced the In
dian, who had returned and stood at
bay, and recognized him as the fa
mous and blood-thirsty George Took,
known among the Indians as Unaka
yah-wah, (white man killer.) He
was an Indian of tremendus size and
strength; and of most desperate char
acter. He stood motionless for a
moment, staring at me with a hide
eous expression of hatred and revenge.
' As I looked at his fiendish eye, and
saw a large tomahawk in his brawny
hand, there flashed through my
mind, for the first time, the immense
disadvantage of my position.
I had, unfortunately, left the camp,
j on this occasion, without my pistol,
' and had no weapon except a short
J hunting knife, which hung at my side
Quick in emergencies, and accustom
-1 ed to perilous adventure, ray plan was
I instantly formed. It was to induce
i pursuit in the direction to the camp
where aid could be procured. Ibe
gau to step backward. He at once
divined my object, and, with terrible
yell, sprang forward, trusting to read?
and dispatch me at once. Being of
| swift foot, I turned, bounded forward,
giving as I started, a loud, keen whis
tle through my fingers. He followed
with velocity equal to my own, and
at a distance of about ten paces be
hind me. For about one hundred
yards he put forth his utmost ener
gies, and then ai if despairing of sue
cess, or fearing I might draw him in
to ambush, hefliurled his tomahawk
at me with such swift proximity to
my head that my cap was carried off,
and the instrument, passing me, buried
itself in a tree some forty feet beyond.
This was a contingency I had hop
ed for ,aud I suddenly turned upou my
f< >e.
As we came together I aimed a
blow at his head with my fist. He
evaded me by a side motion, aud
stepping two or three paces backward,
rushed upon me, attempting to throw
his head between my legs This
was a favorite feat among the Indian
athletes, by which they often upset
an adversary throwing him over upon
his head and crippling, or placing
him at a fearful disadvantage. I un
derstood the move, and partially
avoided it—his head striking my knee,
knocking my feet backward, and stag
j gering me considerably
Recovering, I dealt him a severe
kick on the head, and threw myself
upon his back, pressing him to the
ground, his face downward. He
arose upon his hands. I brought him
down by jerking his hands from un
der him. I bethought myself of my
knife, and made an effort to grasp it,
without success, as the handle had
caught under my waistband: and
while in the effort to disengage it, the j
savage seized one of my thumbs in
his vice like jaws, cutting it to the
bone, This enraged me intensely
and I struck him several powerful
blows with my fist on his head and
neck, which caused him to let go my
thumb, and. by an almost superhuman
effort sprang from beneath me. He
at once turned upon me, and a fisti
cuff exercise ensued. In this, being a
practised boxer, I was too much for
him, as he failed to hit me a single
blow, while I planted several stun
ners upon his short ribs ribs and face,
bringing a free gush of bio and from
his nose. Seeing this, he jumped
back and attempted another run be
tween my legs, which 1 evaded by a
side spring He then rushed toward
the tree where the tomahawk was
sticking. I intercepted him, and we
clinched within three feet of the cov
eted weapon ; and now commenced a
wrestle which, tor skill, strength, and
desperate contortion, was, perhaps,
seldom equalled. His whole effort
was to force me against the tree, that
he might secure the tomahawk. Fail
ing he tried several of his Indian tricks
for the purpose of throwing me,
while 1 forced him from the tree, and
also attempted to throw him. We
thus struggled for some time, sway
ing to and fro each seeking some ad
vantage.
In one of these powerful struggles,
in which I was the receding party',
my foot became entangled in a grape
vine, and I fell, the Indian upon me.
Id* ving the tomahawk still in view;
be attempted to spring away from
me : but as I held to him, he jerked
me to the erect position, still pressing
toward the tree. Throwing my foot
before him he fell, and I by his side.
We lay at arms length upon the
ground grappling each other’s throats,
and each panting from exhaustion and
foaming with rage. Feeling that my
wind was failing me, and fearing that
in this respect the savage wight have
the advantage of me, I now deter
mined to secure my knife at all haz
aids.
Hurling myself upon him by a
mighty effort, I threw my hand down,
and grasped the handle of my' knife—
seeing which he uttered the exclama
tion wall, and clasped me around the
body, pressing me to him with all his
power, at the same time trying to Fite
my face.
While in this position, my hand up
on my knife, and the Indian holding
me around the arms in a vice like
grip, an ally came upon the field.
Bruno, my faithful dog, with a
fierce growl, sprang to my side and
at once fastened his teeth in the shoul
der of the savage. This caused him
; to loose his hold upon me.
In an instant my knife was raised
i and I aimed a violent thrust at his
neck, but his arm received the blow
and the knife shivered upon the bone.
As I raised to repeat the lick, the
Indian exclaimed :
“ Karnarla ! Iv irnarla ! ” which in
the Indian tongue is enough enough
and in broken english, added
I ‘ take off dog! quick! Brave white
man, no kill great Chief. Me give
I "P-”
I eslrained myself with difficulty,
at the moment, but seeing that the
victory was mine, a revulsion of feel
ing ensued in the thought that I had
triumphed in a struggle, which, but a
moment before was so doubtful and
desperate ; and I even felt a sense of
admiration for the manhood and dar
Imgof my powerful antagonist. So I
j accepted his surrender, and pulled off
{ the dog. Taking oil' my buckskin
j suspenders, I bound him tightly
around the wrists, and exacted from
! him a promise that he would go as a
. 1 *
prisonei to the camp.
Noticing that his arm was bleeding
profusely 1 bound my handkerchief
around it, at which he gave me a grunt
of satisfaction 1 then stepped to the
tree, withdrew the tomahawk, and
pointed him the direction to go.
Just at this juncture the fair damsel,
whom I had rescued, accompanied by
! two horsemen from the missionary
station, galloped up. She had, with
almost incredible speed brought them
to my aid.
As they looked at the stalwart form
and bloody visage of the savage, and
at my own somewhat bruised and
bloody appeance, and listened to my
narrative of the desperate struggle,
they gave vent to expressions in
regard to my strength and prowess,
which brought the tinge of pride to
my cheek, and the beautiful girl un
able to express her graitude in words,
looked sweetly down upon me with
her love-beaming eyes, while large
pearly tear-drops trickled down her
soft and blushing cheeks. And, now,
friends from my own camp also arrive
ed, and greetings and congratulations
were extended and acquaintances
formed which time can never erase
j from memory’s page.
That I fell in love with the lady
was to be expected, and that she
should reciprocate, under the circums
stances, was most natural
She was the daughter of the mis
sionary sent out from the church of
England to introduce the Gospel to
the natives.
She had been accustomed to take
her morning and evening rides. On
this occasion she had ventured further
from the station than was prudent, and
the Indian, who had often seen her at
the camp and was eraruored by her
charms, had lying in wait to kid
nap and bear her away as a captive to
some distant tribe, in which attempt
he must have succeeded had it not
been for the providential interposition
just related.
In three months from the time of
this singular introduction, Major S.
and the lady were united in wedlock
and may yet be living in the State of
North Carolina.
George Took, the Indian above
refered to, afterwards committed mur
der upon a whole family in one of the
counties of the Cherokee Purchase—
we believe the county of Paulding.—
The dwelling u r as burned with the
family in it, and when a little child
attempted to escape from the burning
building the fiend picked it up and
cast it back into the flames. Re was
pursued by the Sheriff and his posse
and captured after a desperate r< sis
tance, in which the Indian was shot
in the shoulder, in consequence of
which his arm was afterwards amputa
ted.
The writer, then a boy, has a vivid
recollection of bis appearance upon
the scaffold when he was hung by the
Sheriff of Cass county, in 1835. He
was convicted during the Judgeship
of John W, Hooper, Esq.; and the
Sheriff, we believe, was Col. Lewis
Tumlin, now resident in Cartersville,
Ga.
Among the parties referred to by
Major Seaborn, whose acquaintance
he had made in the nation, were
John Ridge, General Andrew Miller
and Colonel James Word, the latter
being the officer appointed by the
State authorities to remove the In
dians from Georgia, which he did in
the year 1838.
£25“ Favorable arrangements are
being made, eavs the Rome Courier,
to procure the iron for the North and
South Road to Cedar Town, and that
work will be resumed by the middle
of May, and when resumed will be
pushed forward with an early comple
tion.
A Tail of Emoshnn.
The night was klare without a fo<r
Mat and I sat on a log. Her ize was
upon the ski, and her breast did hove
with many a sigh. Her hair was
black as the blackest cat and her lips,
Jerusalem ! hold my hat ! My arm
was around her little waist aud I got
ready her lips to taste : bat whenever
Ido a thing so chaste, I never an in
much haste. ‘ Tis said when you kiss
the Xu York girls, with pretty blue
ize aud hair that curls, they ask you
what you are about and give von a
slap right on the smut. The West
ern girls, they make no bother it yu
kiss them on wun cheek they turn the
other. But give me a Georgia girl
for kissing,—they beat all the others
clean to nothin—When ever you give
wun ’on eni a smack, they purse up
their lips and kiss yu hack.
But to my story: my derest reader
don’t git weary ; tor if I did git off <ni
track, I’ve now without trouble, found
my way hack; and mi theme agin, I’ll
never lose, as sure .as this poetry i«
proze.
I piessed Mattie’s form to mine and
looked down in her ize, and so I took
her hand in mine, I cuddent breathe
fur sighs.
Nearer, near, mi lips til hers did
sneak, I felt her warm breth on mi
cheek; I give her little hand a squeeze,
then raising up her bed shesed : “Take
kare Joe ms, till I sneeze!”
The Only Way.
The only way in which to acooms
plish anything in this life, is first to
carefully consider what our natural
abilities are, to ascertain what pecu
liar tastes and talents we possess, and
what qualities of our uature are most
likely to become improved by cultiva
tion and education. When we have
settled these questions in our minds,
then, the next step to be taken is to
undergo the proper discipline, the
mental end physical training, that will
enable us to make the fullest possible
use of the natural gifts that have
been divinely bestowed upon us.—
In this way, only, can we put our tal
ents to a practical and profitable use.
Every great mind thinks with a pur
pose, and every great life is lived with
a purpose.
It is infinitely better to wear cut in
well-doing, than to live long in idle
ness aud uselessness. A lazy man’s
life is neither of use it himself nor any
benefit to others. Every accountable
being of ordinary intelligence, who is
possessed ot wealth und brains, can
make himself useful, and can, if be
choose, attain to a popularity in the
community with whom he mingles,
that will cause him to be missed when
he is dead, and if he cannot become
a great man, he can become an hon
ored and respected one.
The worldly success of a man’s life,
is proportionate to his usefulness, and
is commensurate with the benefits he
bestows upon the community he lives
in, and one great source ot human
happiness is the consciousness of be
ing a blessing to others — Ei.gene.
Silexce —lt is far belter to remain
silent, in the presence of others, than
to undertake to discourse learnedly
upon topics of which we are utterly
ignorant.
There is nothing that renders a
person more ridiculous in the eyes of
well informed persons than this—and
men lose caste in society and lay
themselves open to well deserved cen
sure, who might have passed for sages,
had they but had sense enough not to
betray by their speech that they were
but fools. Some of our greatest men
have been silent men, men of modest
and unassuming demeanor, men who
would have appeared eveu insignifi
cant in the midst of an ordinary crowd
of people. And yet these men were
not waniing iu influence nor respect
bordering upon veneration. There
was something in the very wisdom of
their silence and reserve that created
a popular feeling of interest and re
gard among men. One great fault of
humanity is a propensity to talk too
much, it is as fatal to a man’s success
and prosperity, as to undertake to do
too much. It is as necessary that a
man talk well as that he should work
well, and his true worth is estimated
more by hh idea3 than his words.
A man’s mind is not a well from
which bncketful after bucketful of
wisdom can be drawn without pro
ducing a vacum. It is infinitely bet
ter to keep silent and look wise than
to talk much aud look foolish.—
Eugene.
