The snows of nearly sixty winters had come and gone since Cranny Staibird first became a rosid-nt ?f the then unpeopled wilderness. The aocun.uhted weight of nearly a hundred years had blanched her hair, and traced their furrows on her cheek, but

had left her faculties almost unimpaired, and it was surprising to hear the minuteness of her descriptions. licit as 1 listened to her tales of other days, a if carried back, in "propria persona,"' the times, when for more than a year, except herself, not a white female was seen where she dwelt; when the red man. though driven farther bade, was frequency

If I w as willing to listen, she w as ready to tell, and sin; soon joined mv fr tgmer.ls together, and -o-npleted the sad legend of Nancv's 1 1 tli and Nainy's Hrook. Some sixty ye n s Mine, a gentleman o! Portsmouth, obtained a grant of land, ing among these mountains. It is now called JelFerson County, and forms part of a beautiful valley, which, though susceptible of cultivation, had then never resounded to the blows of the leveling axe. It had been the hunting ground of lire Indian?, and lay in undisturbed possession of the animals I hoy had chased. Access to it was di.Tii alt. Except by making a long circuit through the valley of the Connecticut, it could be apprmched only by pas

sing the Notch of the U bite Mountains. Here the hills approached so near each other, that the lied of the aco alone divided them. To follow its rocky channel was impossible; and when he reached this spot, the traveller had no alternative hut to retrace his steps, or to dismount from his horse, (if he happened to

have one.) relieve him from his saddle, and!

then assist him to clamber over a part id the mountains, a lit'lo L-ss elevated than the rest. From this, some idea may be formed of the difficulty of an undertaking, which had for its object, the settlement of this district. By the conditions of this grant, roads were to be opened in the forest, land cleared, a mill, that indispensable requisite in a new country . whs to be built; in short, such steps to he taken as would induce settlers to cultivate the adjoining land. To e'fer t tin so objects, stimulated by the hope of gain, or perhaps a more patriotic motive. Col. Whipple, to whom the grant had

With the thoughllessuessofdesperale haste, she scarcely allowed herself lime to provide warm clothing. The travellers had three or four hours the start of her, besides the advantage of the eleven miles that lay between her and the farm, by which she had to pass on her

way. With her cloak thrown on her shoulders, and a staff in her hand, without a morsel ot

loud, she set ciTotr her perilous journey. It was the latter' part of November. V inter commences in these cold regions much earlier

affording a protection hoin the wild ieass. All the agony of hope long deferred, disappointed at last, comes over her heart, when she finds the camp deserted, the still burning

brands showing how recent had been the deoartme of its occupants. The light of the sun

had scarcely penetrated the dark forest, aod she had ll .llercd herself they would still be there. To reach I heir camp before the) commenced their da)'s journey, had been the great object o! her desire; indeed upon this

rested all her hope. Aaiure exhausleu witui labour, watching, hunger and misery, had almost refused to support her sinking limbs, as mile after rniie she had waded through the

Dill goaded by agony, and led en bv hope, she rcseivts to brave every peril. They w ho have never penetrated the depths

of a tangled f Jiest, can form no conceptions of the horrors that Iny befue her. Fancy cannot draw a picture, the dark shades oi

which can compare with the gloomy reality. Alter passing Colonel Whipple's clearing, thirty mites of unreclaimed wilderness lay before her, ere she could leacli the habitation oi man.

ing land and building a log house for'the ac- clUc llt'r purpose, or resign all hopes of hcar-

comurodation of his workmen. j The present tow n of Lancaster, distant aboutll miles from Cel. Whipple's farm, was then a village. Among its inhabitants, he sought a female t take charge of the domestic affairs. He engaged the services of a young woman, though poor, honest and respectable. She entered upon the duties of her situation, performing all the vaiious and laborious offices of house-keeper nnd scle domestic to a numerous family, with true yankce perseverance and industry. Her labours were soon lightened, however, by the attentions of apparent nifection. In his annua! visit to the farm, the Colonel had brought with him, his personal waiter. In this easy situation Swindell found ample opportunity to effect his heartless purpose. Was Nancy up before the sun to begin the labours of the day, he was at her si.Ie. Was fuel needed, S viudell was there to bring it. water came from the spring without her bidding,nnd by a thousand such little services and attentions he made himself so agreeable to the unsuspecting girl, that Ire had no difficulty in gaining her ear for a tale of love. Sinless herself, horr could she imagine deceit iu others! What could prompt his actions

ing any tidings ol lum fnrmonths. Any thing was prtferat.le to this, and her strong desire to overtake him. persuaded it was possible. Love, the deceiver, beguiled her too, w ith the promise that she would be welcome Ui him whose sudden departure she was sure had not

lell him at liberty to lultil his promise. The sun was already past inciidi m, when cold aad weary she reached her former home. The men were still there, and urged her to go no further. The travellers had set offal day break, and it was impossible that she could travel oir foot as fast as they on leaseback. Besides the snow was so deep that she could no get through it and she would lose her way and perish iu the forest. Hut she was not to be turned from her purpose. They would have to stop frequently to lead their horses where they could not ride them, nr to lop the thick branches that would impede their progress. Besides they could heat a path in the snow, and as it was moonlight, she could follow their tracks all night, and overtake them where they ciunped, before they set out in the morning. Finding her resolved to persevere, thev begged her at least, to get something to cat,

her hopcle.-s tr.sk. But to go back was im

possible, for she w ould be obliged to n trace ner steps fifteen mdes lo regain the Colonel's farm. This she felt site had not strength to do. Oh! if they had only left some scattered remains cf their recent meal! But there was not a morsel of food, and she was faint with

hunger. To go forward, stemed now the only chance for life. The habitation of man was equally distant in that direction, but there was siiil a glimmer of hope that she might overtake the travellers. They had not )el passed the Notch, and the difficulty of gelling

iheir horses ever the mountains, at toe narrowest part of the pass w ould necessarily Uelain liieni. Nature will not second her eager desire which prompts ocr immediate departure. tier weary and benumbed limbs refuse lo do their office. She cannot spend ihe precious moments in gathering a litsli supply of fuel. She draws lire brans together, and hoping by increased diligence lo redeem the lluie itius lost, she places her shivering frame near itie

die, puts ner frozen feet to toe warm embers,

and holds Iter chilled hands above the cheer

rug tltiine.

ijut scarcely does she feel tha warmth imparievt to Ihe benumbed extremities than impatient ot delay , .u. d animated w ith the hope renewed, sue ngnm commences her wander

S.x tedious miles more are h Is behind. Still siie sees Ihetrr not. in vairr i.ocs siie make t!ie rocks & lulls echo with the last efforts of her expiring strength. No l et li ning sound readies her ear to lell ner they are near. She drags tier weary limbs over liie hi ouk she is obliged to w ade through.

Alas! the lire by which she might have obtained thai wai into, so necessary to her future exertions, is now far behind her, and she has no means oi kindling another.

Perhaps your curiosity is excited as mine was to know the end of the author of this misery. Using theepithet by which old persons are addressed iu this country, "Uraud-ma'uni," said J,"whnt became of Swindell?"' Turning her keen grey eyes quickly- upon me, "Child," she .replied, "the devil got hurr."

Ihe devil got him. As soon as he ne.iru r.u Nancy followed him, nnd was frozen to death in the woods, he raved like one distracted. He cursed himself and lore out his hair, and never knew another moment's peace. He lived so about six months, and then died in

the poor house raving mad. Lvery one said

he was possessed by ihe devil. "1 don't believo'that, child," continued the old lady; "but sefcing.I.e was such a wicked wretch', making the poor young thing believe he loved, when he did not care a farthing fur her: and. besides, takingall her money away.

t ie Lord to give, htm his senses, so he had no chance to do i." This was an argument which 1 did not know

how to controvert. Besides, the old lady was so indignant at his heartlessness, Unit I would

hardly have dared to defend him had my feelings prompted me lo do so; but indeed, my sympathy lor the poor girl lard been so thoroughly awakened, that I had hlllo charity

lor him. "Grand-ma'am," si.id I "hew was it known that she reached the camp soon after they left

it, and kindled the remains ot their tire: "Why. child, when you make a fire in liie woods, if you go away and leave it burning, ihe wood falls apart, and you will always find brands left. They left their fire burning, and

it was known Nancy gd there before il was! out, for the next that came to the ramp found

nothing but ashes; so they knew siie had reached there before they had been long gone, o" tdse the lire would sail have been out: aird il siie had not drawn lire brands together so that they burned to ashes, they would have found them." This explanation was perfectly satisfactory. 1 only wished to know one thing more. "Do you remember.'

"How far was Bai l lett ?"' 'Thirty miles from Ihe farm,and there was no house between them. Thecamp wasabout half way. just above the Notch. "Did they follow her farther?" "Yes. The next morning as soon as it was light, they set off again. Tiny went seven oreighl miles farther, and began to think she

was somewhere safe, for lliev had seen her

tracks all the way in the snow. But at last they came to the brook. Nancy's Brook llrev call it now; they crossed it, and", at the foot of ihe hill, there she s it. They call lhal Nancy's Hill. They thought at first she was sitting there asleep, w ith her head resting on her cane, for the bonnet was over her face, so that they could not sec it. When they cam? near to her, ar.d saw her clothes stiff with ice, they knew 6hc was dead, and bird enough they fell, as well they might," I was satisfied of the" truth of all 1 had heard. The brook still runs, the rock still stands that bear her name; to both she has given a deathless fame in the legends of the land. Let them not be looked upon with the mere idle gaze of curiosity. Let marr learn from them how deep, how ardent, js woman's love. Let him reflect how cruel it is to (rifle with that affection, w hich once existed, is frequent

ly lasting as life, stronger thin the love of

existence. Though the story is of one in humble life, il is no less the picture of woman's devoted at

tachment. Hor aff'-clions once firmly fixed, cling to the object of their love with a constancy and fervour that man can sc nrcely appreciate or comprehend. Even hear! less treachery cannot detach her affections from him on whom they are placed. A weli-governed mind will maintain its dignity; female modesty shrinks from exposing lo the world's unhallowed gaze, the wound, llrat has been inflicted. But the arrow, though hidden, is not extracted; it rankles in the fostering wound till death removes if. When you look upon Nancy's stream and Nancy's I Mil, you who so lightly sjiort with

woman s love, will you not pause ere you again strive in mere vvont'mness o kindle a fl; me, which even your own tin worthiness cannot extinguish, but which may continue to bum until its dettniclivc fires have coiuumed the altar upon which they were laid, and the unhappy victim of your thoughtless or base a'teulioiiF, expires on the funeral pile to which you bare eouuunicatd the bbi2.

who loves must "love forever," let her heart

be given unly where esteem has preceded it. Let her not be governed by the dictates of fancy; let her not be won by the glitter of wealth; let her not yield her allections to the flattering voice cf solicitations; lot innate worth alone possess the power to win her. h is vanily that undoes woman.

Alas! to find too late, perhaps, that reason, to whose dictates she would not
