Thoro is a beautiful legend that has
been writton nml sung, full of the
sweet imagery of a poet's nature, re
counting tbo sad fate of an Indian
maiden. Beautiful as au angel's
dream, with the eye of a sloe, and
tresses tbo bno of a ravon’s wing, she
was at onco tbo object of adoration of
tbe bravos of her tribe and tbo envy
of tbo maidens leso fair tbau sbe. Sbe
was tbe orphan of a powerful chief.
From her childhood tbo tribe .bad re
garded Toccoa with interest and re
spect, for sbe was not only wonderful
ly beautiful, bat wiso and thoughtful
beyond her age. As a child, Toccoa
was tbo embodiment of reckless gaie
ty, but as sbo grow to womanhood she
becamo silent and melancholy, ceased
to join in tbe sports of tbe Indian
maidons, over wandoring away from
them, and sitting alono on soiuo emi
nence, with bands claspod aud deep
despondency in her groat black eyes,
that over scorned fixed upon a terri
bly fascinating object, from wbicb it
was imi>ossibh> to withdraw them, and
tho aged of tbo tribo would say: —
“ Toccoa secs more than tbe wisest of
US SCO.”
Wliou thoy asked her what sbo saw,
and why so grave aud thoughtful
grown, sbo would shake her bead and
pass out from among them to wnudor
by tho banks of tbo murmuring
streams to gazo up to tbe cold, pale
moon, or watch tho rising of tbo fiery
orb of day from somo high eminence
of her mountain home. At lust her
singular conduct attracted the atten
tion of tho wiso and aged men of tbo
tribo, and a council was culled, to
which sbo was summon'd. Tiny
nskod hor, “why iu. thou different
from tbo maidens of .nr tvilu ? Tell
us why thou dost not wear flowers
and deck thyself with berries. Wo
must know, for wo suspect thee of
dark and evil thoughts,” and sbe an
swered, ' Father, it is because I think
only of tlioso things wbicb tbo Great
Spirit shows mo.
' Daughter, what arc those things
Answering, sbo said: “Father, thou
eompcllcst me to .'peak of that wbicb
I would fuiu bide from myself. Woo
is mo, that I can sec more than tbo
most agod of tbe tribo enn behold. I
see coming ovor tbo wide waters, be
yond tbe distnnt bills, great eauoes,
filled with beings whoso faces arc
while like tbo snow. They number
more tbau tbo spirit oyes that look
out of tbe skies ut night. They land
on onr shores aud kill our deer and i
buffalo, they turn tbo course of our ^
edgo -f a precipice, and a line of wur-
riors stood beforo her, with their bows
and arrows. They would bavo bound
her oyes, that sbo might not seo tbo
death missiles, bat Toccoa waved
them away, saying:
“I dio for my country 1 Lot mo
dio liko n warrior 1”
At a signal, tbe arrows of tbo war
riors flew trno to tboir aim, and quiv
ered in tbo young girl’s heart. Sbo
ottered no sound, bnt sprang into tbo
air, and disappeared over tbo preci
pice.
Long did tbe Iudiau maidens
search for Toccoa's body, but it was
never found; bnt before two moons
bad rolled away, a clear, bright stream
flowed to tbo edgo of tbo rock, and
foil over tbo precipico whoro Toccoa
lmd boen sacrified, and tbo maidens
of tbe tribo said: “It is the spirit of
onr lost companion come to prove to
us that sbo is happy," and they called
tbo cascade tbe Falls of Toocoa.
.Such iu brief is tbe sad legend,
wbicb has come down from tbe past,
when proudly tbo red man, monarch
of all he snrveyod, trod tbo primoval
forest, wbicb is now tbo abode of tbo
pale faces, tbe coming of whoso ca
noes across tho wide waters saddened
Toccoa’s prophetic heart. Whilo tbe
logend itsolf may be mythical, still tho
Falls of Toccoa, in tboir laughing
beauty, are tboro to this day, gor-
goons in their sotting of emerald and
groon, nnd flashing dinmond-liko in
tho brightness of God’s sunlight, a
thing of beauty and a joy forover lo
the enraptured beholder.
To hoc Toccoa at its best, you want
to visit it in tho frcsliucss of tbo early
morning, when tbe penrly dow diupa
aro yet on tbo leaves, tbe grass and
the flowers, and before tho air has
boon colored or stained or heat- d by
the advancing day. Perhaps to en
joy it most it were best to come sud
denly upon it m tho boat and glare of
the Dooudny snn, when yon can throw
yonrsolf, tired and heated, on somo of
tbo mossy rocks, bonoatb tbo urabra-
goous shado of tbo overhanging trees,
and looking high up to whoro the
shimmering stream of silver seems to
como out of tbo very sky, rest your
woary limbs whilo your soul drinks
in tho dreamy intoxication of its dc-
TABLB ETIQUETTK.
Tbero are a great many people who

Never forsake a friend. When en
emies gather around, when sickness
falls on the heart, when the world is
dark and cheerless—is tho tirao to try
a truo friendship. They who turn
from the scene of distress betray their
hypocrisy aud prove that interest
moves them. If yon have a friend
who loves yon, who has studiod yonr
interest and happiness, besuro to sus
tain him in adversity. Let bim feel

circulated tko report tbut tke post-of
fice was receiving mutilated coin at
par. A flood of clipped, perforated
and otberwiso damagod coin waa pre
sented to Smith, tbe delivery clerk,
only to be firmly, yet politely, refused.
By somo mysterious chance, however,
a twenty-five cent piece, with a ga|>-
ing wound under tbo eagle's nose,
found its way into Smith’s till, aud
pencil marks mado Hint quarter look
perfectly hunllliy nnd sound. I’rotty
soon n bnuk boy enrae along nnd

went tbo coin, but ns bo Imndrd it

tbo bole waa aa plainly viaiblo os a

this effort, .Smith offorod tbo coiu at
twenty cents, fifteen centa, ten cents,
and dually tried to givo it away.—
Then ho inclosed it in an onvolope
and addressed it lo tbo beatbon on

The following tribute to tbe uoblo
preservative art wo find in n contem
porary, uti l wo commend its strong
contra::! to tbe intelligent reader.—
Ho was only u printer.” Such was a
sneering remark of a leader of aris
tocracy. Who was tbo Earl of Stan-
kopo ? Ho waa only a printer. Who
is Prince Frederick William—married
to tbo Princess Royal of England ?—
He, too, wna only n printer. Who
was William Caxton, tbo father of lit
erature ? Ha was only a printor. Who
were N. P. Norris, N. P. Willis, J.
Qalos, C. Richardson, Horace Grcely,
Bayard Taylor, 'Charles Diokons,
•Theirs, Jorold, George D. Prentice
and Senators Dix, Cameron and
Nilos? Thoy, too, worn printers.—
What waa Bonjamin Franklin ? Ho
also, was a printer. Every ono can
not bo a printer—brains aro nocca-
sary.
Every man of honor bos a loathing
for a low thing.
