A. Tlirlllinjr Adventure.
It was the year 1805 that I settled in
Virginia near the falls ot the Kanawah.
The country at that time was an ur bro
ken wilderness. But few settlements
had been made by the whites, and they
were so far apart as to render vain all
hopes of assistance in case of attack from
hostile Indians, numbers of whom still
infested the neighborhood. I lived
there with my wife alone for several
months unmolested, and by dint of per
severance, when young and hearty, had
succeeded in making quite a clearing in
the forest, which I planted with corn,
and which promised an abundant yield.
One morning after we had dispatched
our humble meal, and I had prepared
to venture forth on my accustomed
routine of labor, my attention was ar
rested by the tinkling of a cow bell in
the corn field.
‘There,’ said my wife, ‘the cow is in
1 18 c rn field"’
But the ear of the backwoodsman be
comes very acute, especially from the
fact, that his safety often depends upon a
nice cultivation of that sense.
I was not so easily deceived. The
sound Wes repeated. ‘That,’ said I, in
reply to my wife’s remark, ‘was not the
tinkle of a b II upon a cow, but a decoy
from some Indian who wishes to draw
me into an ambush.’
Believing this, I took down my old
musket, and seeing her properly loaded,
I stole cautiously around the field to
ward the spot Iroin which the sound
proceeded.
As I suspected, there in a clump of
bushes, an Indian sat awaiting for me to
make my appearance in answer to his
decoy bell that he might send a bullet to
my heart. 1 approached without dis
covering myself to him until within
shooting distance, then raised my piece
and fired. The bullet sped true to its
mark, and the Indian fell dead.
Not knowing but that he was accom
panied by others, I returned at full
speed to the cabin, and having barrica
ded the door firmly, I watched all day
for tile companions of the Indian I ha f
killed. To add to the danger and seem
ing hopelessness of my situation, 1 tlis
coved that I had but one shot left, and
if attacked by numbers I should be en
tirely in their power. Determined to
do the best I could with the powder,
I put it into the musket and waited for
the approach of uight, feeling sure of an
attack.
Night came at last. A beautiful
moonlight night it was, too, which fa
vored me greatly as I would thereby be
able to observe the movements of the
enemy as they approached the cabin.
It was some two hours after night fall
and yet I had neither heard or seen a
sign of the Indians, when suddenly I wus
startled by the baying of my dog at the
stable. The stable stood a little west
of the cabin, and between the two was
a patch of clear ground on which the
light of the moon fell unobstructed.
Judging by the noise from the stable
that they would advance from that di
rection, I posted myself at the port-hole
on that side of the cabin.
I had previously placed my wife on
the cross pole in the chimney, so that,
iu case our enemies effected an entrace,
she might climb out through the chim
ney and make her escape. For myself
I entertained no hope, but determined
to sell my life dearly.
With breathless anxiety 1 waited at
the port-lmle. At length I saw them
emerge from the shadow ot the stable
and advance across'the clear ground to
wards my cabin. One —two--thrce—
great heavens ! six stalwart Indians,
armed to the teeth, and urged on by the
hope of revenge —and l alone to oppose
them with one charge of powder. My
case was desperate, indeed. With rap
id and stealthy steps, in close single file
they approached, and wore already
within a few yards of the house, when
a slight change in the movement of the
forward Indian changed the position of
the six, so that a portion of the side of
each was uncovered.
They were in range, and one aim
would cover all. Quick as thought'l
aimed and fired. As the smo4a cleared
away I could hardly credit what my
senses showed me as the result of my
shot. The fifteen slugs with which I
had loaded the gun had done their
office well. Five of the six Indians
lay dead upon the ground, and the
sixth had disappeared. Although no
enemies were now in sight, l did not
venture forth until morning. There
lay the bodies of five Indians undisturb
ed, together with* the rifle of the other.
Securing the arms and ammunition of
the fallen Indians, I followed up the
missing one until I reached the river,
beyoud which point I could discover no
trace whatever. From she amount of
blood on his trail, together with certain
evidence that he had chosen his way
with diffi.ulty, 1 was led to believe
that he was mortally wounded, and in
order to prevent his body falling into
the hands of the foe, he had groped his
■way to the river and thrown himself in
the current which had borne it away.
The corn crop iu Houston county is

In the East, the people are pastoral,
un war-like, fond of quiet, and are also
encircled by religious iJols. We see
this in the simple meeting of two per
sons on the street. They convey—in
the form of prayer—an earnest wish
that the other may enjoy peace. —
Throughout the bible this blessing forms
the staple of salutation. Salem or Sha
lum means peace, and is doubtless the
meaning of the word Jerusalem. The
Bedouins of our time have the same idea
embodied in the salutation. The Arab
meets his friend with this: May God
grant you a happy morning ; may God
grant you his favors. If God wills you
are well. The difference here is very
considerable according to the rank of
the person saluted. The most common
mode is merely laying the right hand
on the bosom, and a little inclining
their bodies, but when to a person of
great rank, they bow almost to the
ground, and kiss the hem ot his gar
ment. Inferiors, out of deference and
respect, kiss the feet, the knees or the
garments of th ir superiors.
The dominant trait in the character
of the Ottoman is known to be great
pride, much gravity and apparently a
considerable distaste to the use of his
tongue in speech. It will he noticed
in many of liis sayings that those three
are unfolded. May your shadow never
glow less, shows how much they value
flesh.
In Egypt the climate is so very warm
arid perspiration is so very necessary
to health, that an Egyptian says, how
do you perspire? According to Ilerod
itus, the Egyptians saluted by letting
the hand fall to the knee, unlike any
other nation.
The Laplander applies the nose
strongly against the person they sa'ute.
Dam pi re says that at New Guinea they
are satisfied to put on their heads the
leaves of trees, which have ever passed
for friendship and peace.
The Spaniard wishes you, good morn
ing, God be with you, Senior.
The Neapolitan devoutly says, grow
in sanctity.
The Piedmontese says, 1 am your
servant.
The Genoese of modern times says,
health and wealth.
The Romans, who are robust, had
energetic salutations, expressing force.
Salve, be strong, be healthy. Quid /’"is,
what do you do ? or, what make you ?
The Chinaman, with earnest solici
tude, asks, is your stomach in good or
der—have you eaten ?
The German says, wie %eht.il how gops
it ? To hid adieu, he says, leben sic wold,
live quiet and be happy.
The Islanders, (near the Phillippines)
take the hand or foot of him they salute,
and with it they gently rub the face.
The Pole embraces the knee, kisses
the shoulder, and in departure says, be
ever well.
In Hungary they say at departure,
may you remain well ; God keep you
well.
In Servia they say, how are acorns ?
Arencorns plenty? they being a pasto
ral people.
In Turkey great attention is paid to
salutations, the arms are laid over
each other, each on his own breast, and
bending the head.
The Hindoos bend the head to the
earth.
In Sweeden, besides the universal
gud day, which needs no translation,
they ask. hum mar Ni ? literally, how
can you ? meaning, are you strong and
vigorous? Also, Cod sc i tarn! God be
