of smoke rose, stifling the Indians, and diiv-j ing them to their stockade, The success' of hij eifwrt was thus far complete. A loud shout from his companions pioclaiaied their sense of rfhitigle's dexterity and i-unnlngjilie whole party, under cover of die .saiofce juiaea hira. " - It was now decided to se-ile the bank, where it was open and clear, while iwo should again take up Sevens' phice,to keep the Indians" at bay. No sooner decided ihmi done. SiiiAgle, brandishing the iJJe and the Indian tomahawk, led the way. lu live minutes thev were at the top of the bank. The first welcome which met their ears was the loud cry of their comrades, under old Shingle. The Indian village was empty of Indians as
at the period of my visit. Uid bhingle had lost one man, as had been suspected while taany weie wounded. After ten minutes pause ths the trail of the Waccos was follow -ed, and found to lead to a thicket, about half a mile distant. Pursuit was decided .011, for. though the sun was down, the moon was yet in the heavens for an hour or so, and
all determined not to end hear. The parties now entml. were deviJed us bufore, thou"!)
, . w no effort at concealment was made. dipt
Zick advanced to the left, Old Shingle to the
righi ; the former took up a position not more than forty yards from the grove of live oak, which concealed the ludiaus, concealing himseirbehind of t'roup ofnapob. A rapid fire now opened on all sides, the Waccos. each man behind a tree, poured forth volley after volley, while both the parties of white men were eqdly active, ll.tlf an hour passed in this way, when he communicated with his fktlier, and the charge was agreed on; the signal was the cry of the caioia?, or prairie wolves. A pause, unbroken by the report of a rifle, ensued. Presently at the first cry of t.:e wolf, every white man rose, exposing his person for a second to the Indians; & discharge fiom every musket g ive a token of their success; and so quick weie the motions, that not a rnun w;i wounded. Without the slightest pise, every man rush- . ed for, Ipjtig his rifle, and with his knife Jocsert fa-hls aheaib. On the verge of the Wood the Indians met them. Leaping Pauther and Zick were in an instant hand to hand; Zick dropped his title, which'he had discharged without effect, and rushed on his rival with his tomahawk. A shower of blows were rained by one and the .other for some time, without leading to any
consequence ; u length young Shingle wound.ed the chief in the left shoulder hut the tom
ahawk got entangled in the long . hair of the Indian the Waccos do not shave unless when going on a regular war-path and ete "he could free it Leaping Panther had brain-" " ed his adversary, and in two minutes iiiuic.
the scalp of Ezekicl Shingle was hanging at lhe belt of his iuveterale toe. Leaping Panther turned to view the scene. Tinny white men were contending with an equal number of Indi ans, twelve ot' whom lay dead ou the field, while Z.ck was the only orl'set. The joursg chief saw thai to continue the struggle was to ensure lhe destincdou of his tribe. Next instant, the anry stowlofa pauther
heard, and eie the Whites could cleaily make out whence it came, every red skin had disappeared in the woods. "Alt almighty lucky arrivals that of yours, Capl. Ogilvjy1 said Stevens, "il it liad'nt a been for you we were looking mighty ugly, that's a lucl. Them Ingmiis are considerable smart with the Ionian i wk, and do wipe you up considerable hard- Poor Zick! he's looking pretty bad." "Aye! aye!" replied Capt. Ovilvy, who, with rilteeu men, had came up in lima to join the last stiuggij" "you were all so eteinally in a hurty ; but you'd a thrashed thim
Waccos a plagy sig n sooner, and young S.
saved his bacon, it you hadu t a been so pret ly primesupeiliue hot. Old Shingle ougiit'nt a done it, and I la A.-a it a linder hud he
fouldu'l give a fclier a right up an' down ciMncts ot a sAriiiun ige; but iis of no use
niaAing a Ion"-locAruin : young Shingle's
dead and the old one ain! just, quite a live
So I won l put his dander up." ' However rude and wild may be man's po
sition, it is rare, indeed, that the better feelings are quite extinguished. - Old Shingle appeared heart-broken at t he death of his only 6ou, and though still alive when I visited Texas, heli.id uever Auown lo smile front that day. Whenever an oppotunity occurred of engaging with the copper-colmed den i- - zensof the wilds, old Shingle was the first to volunleer.and as long as he lives tho peace patched up with the Waccos will be hollow.
They fcnow this, and, until his death, will
doubtless never revisit their old settlement
byt afford to many future travellers an opportunity of beholding the Deserted W'acco VrLLAGE. Tbo traders supply the Indians with i ti most interior and common article!, especially in the matter of s una, which ara rarely serviceable at more than mxiy or seventy yard, w hile the American nfls is uuuriine al twice the distance. The contests between a surili pattv ol Americans and a isi'sro force of Indians, are thus in a great measure explained.

Whilst ladies persist in maintaining these iriclly defensive condition, mu must naturally as it were tnke the opposite line, thai of attack ; otherwise, if both parties held aloot there would be no more marriages; and lhe two hosts Would die in their respective inaction, without ever coining l' a battie. Thus it is evident that as the ladies will not, lhe men must lake the offensive. 1, lor my purt, have made in the course ol my lite, nt least a score of chivalrous attacks upen sev eral tortiticd hears. So'inelimes 1 beg'iu my, work too late in lhe season, and winter suddenly came and rendered further labors impossible ; sometimes 1 have a. tuck tr d the breach sword in hand, and have been plunged violently from the scaling-ladder into lhe diicti, and sometimes 1 have mad ' a descent lo.igmoiu in the place, w hen bnng! blows up a mine, and 1 a:n scattered i o the d uce ! ami S'imet lines "when I have been in the very heart of l!ie citadel ah, that I should say it! a sudden panic has struck me, and 1 have run like the Brt tish out ot Cariliagenia ! One grows tried after a while of such perpetual activity. Is it rot time that the ladies should take an innings? Let us widowers and beachel-
ors form an association to declare that for the next hundred years we will make love no longer. Let lhe young woman make love to us: let them writes us vetses; let them ask us -to dance', get us ices and cups ol tea, and help us on with our cloaks al the hall door; and it they are eligible, we m?y perhaps be induced lo say.
