Winding far through the land*
acape il-.wcd the lordly Ooatanaiila,
in whose placid bosom wire mirrored
the dark shadows of shore,"* and the
picture of clouds and sky; upon the
glassy sui'i'iiee two snow whiteducks
lloaled side by side, and down a
vrooden cape, which in the distance
projected into the river a heard of red
deer trooped to drink of the crystal
tlow. The quiet repose of t he level
river.fed valmy laded away into the
pine Hills, au I b vend shrouded in a
blue haze, lowered the majestic
CohutUbs, their purple summits
veiled in mist and cloud.
Mini-eon, his heatt bursting with

scene before him. Was this not

which the Great Spirit had given

drilled with his love on many a

sigh of the night wind, and bowed
bis bead in meek submission before
the storm of bis wreath; here he
had eonu-nded hi irc-lr for the rights
of his people; here he had lived and
here be would die.
His tuar'liediramed eyes were up.
turned toward hea»en, his hunting
knife was raised aloft, and he cried,
“O Great .Spirit, receive mv soul!”
The knife Hashed in its descent and
.Minecoa’s sorrowful life was at an
end.
'J'he shadows of the evening silent¬
ly draped the landscape in a mantle
of mourning; the waters of the
river softly whispered a funeral
sigh, the h.xith'wind gently waved
tho leaf b mglis ot the forest, and
; breathed through the gnarled and
twUted spruce bough - a melancbnly
dirge, and the wild ivy ten lerly
