Such wu the mutual sympathy, I
thu kindly feelings, the strength of I
the friendships which the incidents '
rela-ed ia the last number establish- j
cd between these honest backwoods
people, that it took the character of
an intimacy of years. They felt no
desire to part that night, and there
fore remained at the cabin of JToe
Spell. Ihe next m-irning, howev
er, Win. Sand'ord and his wife ac
companied Dutch Bill home. Hia
cabin was small, but a few day’s
work, assisted by a neighbor or two,
who understood how to build, or add
to the primitive log houses ol those
days, made it sufficiently comforta
ble for a temvorary dwelling pluee,
till they selected a more elligible
one to settle themselves permanent
ly. It was sometime before the
young folks could fully realize the
singular change in their fortunes,
and adapt themselves satisfactorily to
the new relatives. But the Dutch
man, now as happy as his warmest
desire* gratified, could make him
occasionally threw out hints, made
observations or remarks upon’ Mrs.
Withers, whom he described to Car
lotta very accurately; as also the
place she lived at, the house, and
and its arangements the furniture,
the bodding, &/ ; and particularly
her old black mare and a year old
colt , also a large brindled cow,
she called 'old Brindlie.’ These with
minor incidents, we'l known and re
membered bv Carlotta, tended
strongly to convinoe her of his iden
tity. Sho also reasonod very cor
rectly that as she had never seen
him at Mrs Withers’ since he left
h«r there. li« could at no othor time
have viaited the place • and if he had,
how could he know of her having
lived there t Nothing else but con
sanguinity could make' him love her
«nd take the interest iu her well-be
ing that he did. But it was a very
long time bclore she could get him
ro allude in any manner to their
n me; or explain to her anything
satisfactory about her mother. Al
mo-t invaribly becoming whenever
she mentioned the subject, very se
rious ; and the old, forbidding, stol
id expression would overspread his
feathers as tho’ the matter called up
some unpleasant remembrance. He
would generally say to her on such
occasions, but quite kindly.
“Pe you patient, mine dear love ;
somo of dese days some times,
mine goot Carlotta, you shall has
bear about it.”
John Ruiford, before leaving for
North Carolina, had pretty fully de
cided upon the location of his future
residence. And after spending sev
eral days in examining Jhe country
around about in many dirctions, and
up and down both sides of the Oge
chee river aud Williamson Swamp,
in company with Joo Spell, Dutch
Bill and Win. Sandford, became
confirmed in his original choice ; and
settled, as I have before observed,
on the rising ground, as you emerge
from the river swamp, by the road
that crosses the stream at'the bridge
which has been known by his name
for three quarters of $ century or
more. He established a ferry there
for the accomodation of travellers
and movers, as well as the neighbor
hood.
It was after one of these days of
prospecting or more properly
speaking, at the close. Dutch Bill
announced his intention of spending
the night with John Raiford. at his
shanty, which ho occupied while
working on what was to be his
dwelling. Bill’s proposition was
very cheerfully, even gladly accept
ed, by. the lonely occupant, who
frequently spent adveral hours of the
evening working on his house when
he had no one to remain the night
with him; or. while- Away the early
hours of the evening “by the witch
ery of their conversation. There
fore the two struck' off in the most
direct coutse for their destination,
while Spell and Sandford also took
the nearest rout for their homes.
Vy the nightjemaina with
the friendly wish hovtever that ‘they
may do'so in safety. -
' When the evening meal was over,
aud the; two men/were«*ittinfr tit
lounging in the shanty, with the in
evitable prpee in-full use which are
considered the hunter’s solace, Jm

sadness ovcrsprL'bng it, though
not enough to mar cheenylnesa, was
the first to break silence.
*’l coomes not here, friend Shon,

"Certainly not, Bill. I think I

‘•1 taut you would know vat I has

“You want some friends to con
fide in, to whom you could unbosem
yourself of some important or Weigh
ty matter, that bore too heavy on
your mind—whom you could talk
with and consult, and who would
not talk, or make light of it again;
or perhaps cause you some incon
