From the Family Magazine . THE PIASA, an Indian Tradition of Illinois. No part of the United States, not even the highlands of the Hudson, can vie in wild and romantic scenery, with the bluffs of the Illinois. On one side of tho river, often at the water's edge, a perpendicular wall rises to the height of some hundred feet. Generally on the opposite shore is a level botton or prairie, of several miles in width, extending to n similar bluft that runs parallel with the river. One. of these ranges commences at Alton, and extends with few intervals for many miles along the bank of the Illinois. In descending the river to Alton, the traveller will observe between that town and the mouth of the Illinois, a narrow ravine through which a small stream discharges its waters into the1 Mississippi. That stream is the

A 1 l 'till, u tuuta I, M1IW 1 signifies in the language of the Illini, "the bird that devours men." Near tho mouth of that stream, on the smooth and per pendicular face of the bluff, at an j clevtition that no human art c ;n reach, is cut the figure of tin inurinous bird, with its wings extended. The bird which this ligtire represents was called by Ihc Indians the Piasa, and from this is u;r ved the name of the stream.

Near the place of their concealment, another wariior was to stand in open view, as a victim for the Piasa, which they must shoot the instant he pounced upon his prey. When the chief awoke iu the morning, he thanked the great spirit, and returning to his tribe, told them his dream. The warliors were quickly selected and placed in ambush as directed. Ouatoga offered himself as a victim. He was willing to die for his tribe. Placing himself in open view of the bluff, he soon saw the Piasa perched on the cliff, eyeing his prey-Ouatoga drew up his manly form to its utmost height, and planting his feet firmly upon the earth, began lOhaent the death song of the warrior. A moment after the Piasa rose into the air, and, swift as the thunderbolt, darted down upon the chief. Scarcely had ke reached his victim, when every bow was sprung, and every

arrow sent into his body. The Piasa uttered a wild, fearful scream, that resounded far over the opposite side of the river, and expired. Ouatoga was safe. Not an arrow, not even the talons of the bird had touched him. The

master of life, in admiration ufj the geneious deed of Ouatoga, ! iiau neui over nun an invisiuie ;

To what depth they extend, I am unable to decide, but we dug to the depth of 3 or four feet in every quarter of the cavern, ntul still we found only bones. How, and by whom, and for what purpose, this cavern was used as a receptable for the dead, it is impossible even to conjecture. Insubordination bad Company . Habits of insubordination at home, and the company of bad boys abroad, are the two great sources of evil, which undermine so much of what moral and religious instructions would otherwise effect. The current of paternal interest is setting toward instruction to such an extent as to overate altogether its powerand the immense injury which comes in from such sources as bad company and insubordination , is overlooked and forgotten.
