THE STORY OF FRANCIS SLOCUM. Stolen by the Indiana in theWyomlna; Valley Alter Mi Memorable Massacre of 1178 and Carried off to Indiana Her Life Anion; the fcarages. It will be both interesting and instnic tive to hear the story of a little girl, wh vea. captured by the Indians, and afte sixty years of eavago life discovered b; her relatives. It was in the Wyomin valley, just after that dreadful summer c 177S. Near the present Bite of "Wilkes barre, th?n a fort, lived a Quaker by th name of Slocum. IIa was friendly wit the Indians. While others were treate with ferocity, ho was spared the toma hawk and tho fir' of the incendiarji Mr. Slocum was not in tho least moleste during that dreadful massacre in July, o 1775. But lato iu the fall, after the Ir. dians had abated their barbarity, a grou; cf Delawares approached tho house. was ia 'the evening. The men were e work iu the field yet. A family by tl ' name of Kinsley, that had been disturbe by the Delawares, had taken refuge wit this Quaker family. The two Kinsle boys were at a grindstone grinding an a:! As the Indians approached they shot and scalped tho older boy, who was about fourteen, and secured as captive the younger, about nine. "When Mrs. Slocum heard the report of the gun, she, with ti e children, started for the fort, but the Delawares met her and seized a little boy. The mother entreated them to release him, paying in her Quaker dialect: "Do thee not see that ho is a cripple. He can do thee no good." The savages left him and Lectin to ransack the house. How that fond mother's heart must havo bled when ghe was compelled to flee to o-zAn-wAn-sniNO-QCAn. (The youngest daughter of France Slocum. the. fort without finding her little daughter Francis 1 As Boon aa Francis bad heard the report of the pun 6ho secluded herself under a stairway in a closet. Here the. savages with tbeir pillage found her. With the two captives and with tbeir plunder the Indians hurried off to the mountains. They hid in a cave not far from the house. They had just reached the cave in time, for in a few minutes they heard the soldiers from the fort riding over the cave in search of them. Tho Indians remained in tho cave that night and tho next day. At the approach of ' night they stole through tho forests to tho Indian cauip. They tarried tho little fiirl all tho way, but compelled the boy to walk. "When they arrived at the Indian camp the next morning, tho captives were surrounded by the savages. The boy was shot at, and kicked and cuffed, by the young braves, in order to try his pluck. One of the Indians who had made the capture bad become prcatly attached to the little girl, and took jrood care of her. "While he was by her side a young brave came up and pushed her over, upon which he was severely kicked, tihe was taken into tho hut of theokl Chief Tuckhos, and was told that lie was her father, and that his squaw was her mother. It was a custom among the Indians when they lost a child to adopt another in Us place. The old chief. Tuckhos, had lost a little girl. lie grieved and mourned very much about her. He paid that he wanted a daughter. The Indians say that this is the reason that they molested the .Slocum family. Tuckhos adopted tho white captive, and she learned to live and . think with tho Indians. She was only five years old at the time of her capture. Tor the first two or three da)-s in the camp of Tuckhos she cried very much, but was treated with such care änd kindness that she 6oon forgot her real parents. She was soon idolized as a queen among the savages. They dressed her very elegantly in their costume and taught her to shoot and to ride. Jihe was not compelled to do any drudgery. iShe soon learned to love the Indinns and their camp-fire and their home. They gave her the name of Mah-con-es-quah, (a young female bear). Soon after her capture she, with her Indian parents, left the beautiful valley of Wyoming, and went to Genesee Falls, They remained here but a short time. They then went to Niagara Falls and remained there during Wayne's war. In the summer they roamed through the vast forests for game, camping wherever there seemed to be plenty. In the winter they returned to tho falls, where they were furnished provisions by the llritish. Francis fclocum said she remembered that, while at this place, the Indians carne into camp with many white men's scalps. She would often talk of the great water-fail and how the went under it. They remained at the falls two winters and then went back to Genesee falls, but soon left there and went to Fandusky. At this place the Indians built many bark canons, and about 2..V0 of them went to Detroit and remained there three years. They then went to Urownstown. At this place a young Delaware gained either tho affections of Francis or the good will of Tuckhos. Among the Indians, it was often of more importance to court the "old man" than the girl. liut the first match did not last long. The VO'vnar Delaware drank too much fire

water and abused his pale face. "Tuckhos said that Mah-con-es-quah should not be ill treated, and took her home. She had no children by her first husband.

Tuckhos kept fegmv movtnsr west. JTtANCES GLOCCM, (At sixty-five year. the raft Francis drove tho cattlo on the bank. One day 6he found an Indian lying on the ground ith his dog and gun. He had been shot through the sido by the whites, and was unable to rise. He was a Miami. She stopped the raft and carried him on board. The old chief doctored tho young Miami for several months, till he was able to hunt, when he supplied tho party with provisions with his gun. As soon as he thought he had paid his doctor bill by hunting, he said to Tuckhos that he wished to return to his people. But She-pah-can-nah, for such was his name, was a daring, brave warrior and a skillful hunter and tho chief could not permit him to go. He said that She-pah-can-nah was a good Indian and might have his white daughter for his wife. lJut he could not be prevailed upon to remain. He with Francis islocum went up among the Miamis east of Fort Wayne somewhere. This was about 1S03. During the war of 1312 thev remained at Fort Wayne. Shc-pah-can-nali was a great warrior. He was always conspicuous iu tho light and tho dance. After tho Mar of 1812 they went down the Wabash, and settled near the mouth of tho Mississinawa river at Osage village. This village was named after its first chief, and it is said it was tho largest village of tho Miamis. She-pah-can-nah became the war chief of the Osage village. The site of this village is one and a half miles east of Peru, on the left bank of the Mississinawa, opposite the residence of Gabriel Godfrov, the last chief of the Miamis. This village was deserted in the summer of 1S13, at tho approach of Col. William Kussell, with 67:t men. It was restored and the Indians lived here until removed west. Wah-pa-pe-tah (Peter Bundy), tho last of the medicine men, never passes where the old village used to be, but what "fond recollections are presented to view," and tho old man loves to converse ou its old times. Phe-pah-cau-nah and his paleface left tins village and went up the Mississinawa about iivo miles and became war chief of a small village. The chief was now very old and could not hear, so tho village was called Deaf Man's Village. He Boon died, and Francis Godfroy, who was half French, became the chief. In the summer ot 1S3-) Gen. George Ewing was in tho Indian nation. Ono night WA-rA-rE-TAU (teter BO'DY.) The last of the medicine men half French. he lodged in the camp of Francis Slocum. He learned that she was a widowof the distinguished war chief ; that she was stolen from her parents when quite young. She was induced to tell him the story of her capture. Sho remembered her name and that her father was a quaker: that they lived on tho Susquehanna. Gen. Ewing wrote a letter to a friend in Pennsylvania, giving the story of the old lady, and requested that ho would have it published in some of the papers in Pennsylvania. He hoped that ner relatives might be found, and that she might bo restored to their fire-side. The letter lay for two long vears. when it was discovered and published in a Lancaster (Pa.) paper. The Slocums read the letter, and believed the old lady to be their long lost sister. They at once began a communication with Gen. Ewing. The brothers had roamed through the forests in every direction for hundreds of miles; they haa searched every nation and wigwam. They had at one time found a little girl whom they believed to be their sister. This little girl lived with them for some time. But there were no filial affections, and the girl returned to live among tho Indians. Mrs. Slocum always had great hopes of tho discovery of her daughter. But she had been dead many years, and her children had almost forgotten their lost sister. This letter of Gen. Ewing's was the best clew that they had yet received of their sister's whereabouts. Francis Slocum had two brothers and a sister still living. They at once came to Peru, and secured two interpreters, and Joseph Slocum proceeded to Deaf Man's Village. On tho way he related to the Interpreters how he had mashed Francis' finger, while at play, when she was about four, and he baid that lie could recognizo her by this scar alone. When nearly there one of the interpreters went ahead "to prepare tho old lady for tho reception of her brother. When Mr. Slocum first ßaw his sister after sixty years of eavago life he involuntarily exclaimed, 'My God 1 Is this my sister?' The old lady told the same story to the interpreter about the scar on her finger which Joseph had just related, and he was satisfied that she was his sister. Francis Slocum had two daughters. Ke-kc-na-kush-wah was married to a French half-breed named Brouillett. who was the first Indian among tho Miamis that attempted to preach the gospel. O-zah-wah-shing-quah was her youngest daughter, and lived till 1877. The interpreters insisted that Francis should ac

company them to Tern. But she could not be prevailed upon to go until they had given the greatest assurances that they did not intend to take her away from her home. She, with her two daughters and their husbands, accompanied Mr. Slocum to Peru. Mrs. Townsend and Isaac Slocum at once recognized their sister. They did all they could to gain her confidence. They had a life-size picture of her taken by a photographer in Logansport. This picture is now at the Slocum residence in Wilkesbarre. They made all tho offers they could think of to nersuade her to go home with them. But nothing could tempt her. She said that Bhe had children and grandchildren, and was very hanpy; that she did not work, but counseled her people and her word was law. She told them through tho interpreter the history of her life, and when sho had finished sho raised her hand and paid: "This is as true as there is a Great Spirit in tho heavens." Francis Slocum greatly preferred tho wigwam to the hospitable mansion of her brother. She, in cultivated society, would havo been like one imprisoned. "She had always feared that her relatives would discover her and force her from her people. Sho and her daughters wero by far tho richest in the nation. They had many horses and cattlo and cultivated tho ground with oxen. Francis had saved $1,000 of her government money at the time of her discovery. Sho lived ten years longer. John Adams, the old man, eloquently pleaded her case in congress. That body gave her a section of land to bo held by her and her heirs forever. Her seven grandchildren are now living on this section. The residence of Judson Bundy is only a few feet from where his grandmother was discovered, and across the road on tho hill is her grave, shaded by a cedar, The grave of Francis Slocum will ever be kept green by tho Mianiis. She will ever be ono of tho noted personages of Indian history. J. II. Stephens. OUR HEROES.

The ladened air of peaceful May Has not t note ot strife, i:agerly gladly, we can ay That, tut joyous sounds are rife; All hero's hero who, slumbering lay, tying In death, this memorial day, Like patriot true, in midst of the fray Sealed our union with their blood and life. Yours are tho blessings these hero's sought; Can you forget how tbey suffered and fought At call to arms they bravely went; Men more in earnest did not live, Or men, with less to be, content, Reunion won, they said forgive Each one who fought, but union meatt.

Vain, bloodless things are demagogues. Or those, thriving on hate and prejudice, Or, Judging by their decalogues Report all but themselves amiss.

Men sleep here, who long ago, Along with 8cott in Mexico ot once retreated from tho foe; And some there are that's sleeping here Soldiers, who, in wars of the frontier, The savsge red men held at bay, And there are those nought can disturb Those, who, with Hancock "the superb," Engaged at Round Top, won the day, Some marched with Sherman to the sea; Men here who charged with Sheridan And were on the Peninsula, Near Grant upon the Rapidan. Then men who shared Antietam's fame, Koposinghere In peace they He, Under Meridian's lead and name. Earned glorious names that cannot die. And men sleep here from every state, From St. Lawrence to the Rio GrandeAye! from their homos In foreign land. Intent to make this nation great. They came to lend a helping hand ; Here have they come from Emerald Isle, From light-haired, blue-eyed Germany United with the best of earth, Lovers alone of liberty. Friends of the union, one and all, liemember all the boys In blue, In our great danger they were true; Earning a name, most Justly due, Nor need one blush when we recall Danger we've safely traveled through. Oh, may our grand old ship sail clear From every dangerous rock that's near. i Jlury aaln, then, these comrades of ours, Over their graves heap the wreaths and tho flowers; Tears shall roll on, but each May will recall Sufferings and trials they endured for us alL In garlands of rosea their graves we'll o'eripread ; Ne'er will we forget oar hero's now dead.

According to the rules to bo adopted in England, a boy entering college will bo. probed until his vocation is discovered, and will then be educated in the branches of knowledge which will fit him for it. The benetits of this system will be incalculable. Novelists, for example, will bo compelled to learn spelling, English language, grammar and morals, ard to insert interlinear translations of all Frcnc'u expressions that they may decid to use, not for publication but as a guarmtee of good faith. Tho course for critics will be nmewhat severe. Those destined to critl'iso music will be examined for deafness, and in order to get a diploma must bo atlo to distinguish the difference betweet a ruczzosoprano and a bull fiddle. , Critics of the drama will bo taught to distinguish between a good play and one which ia bad, and to underhand that an appointment as dramatic critic froin a managing editor does does not necessarily carry with it a knowledge of art, of literature or of the public taste, and that whero the box office and public clamor for seats declare that tho play is good the opposing critic may just as well braid his ears, retiro thoughtfully into himself and change his tunc. Tho proper way,'-, ,tq : criticise a k play is to be non-committal until the boxoffico receipts are known. This may not be scientific but it is practical and will bo approved by most theatrical persons of intelligence and discrimination. Students desirous of becoming artists will, by the proposed L'nglish system, be given an opportunity of observing that the portrait of a blue cow feeding in a pink field with a brown sky and lemoncolored clouds overhead is not quite in accord with nature. The cow being a domestic animal and not a freak of delirium tremens, too great caro cannot be taken in limning her beauties with accuracy. Many a noble work of art entitled PORTRAIT OF X COW. "In the Gloaming," or "A Quiet Nook," or "Cattlo in the Berkshires," has not been appreciated by the vulgar public because of one or more of these defects, although I never yet bave gazed upon a flock of mauve sheep, under a taffy-colored sunset on a coast of pink rocks lashed by tar billows that I did not feel a thrill. A learned friend informs me that the process by which this ia done belonjra to the impressionist tchoGl, and I am glad to hear it. I hope the impressionist school may never be induced to give it away. Special attention should be given to teaching students that there is a time and Elaeo for the exercise of all professions.

Henry Guy Cahletox. "OLD HICKORY." Ilotv Gen. Jackson Had That Sobriquet Con. f erred on Ulm. American Notes and Queries. The sobriquet, "Old Hickory," ia said to havo been conferred upon Gen. Jackson by the soldiers under his command in 1813. Jt was, Mr. I'arton tens us, not an inspiration, but a growth. First of all, the remark was made by some soldier who was struck by his commanders pedestrian powers that the general was "tough." Next it was observed that he was tough as hickory. Then ho was called "Hickory." Lastly the affectionate adjective "old" was prefixed, and tho general thenceforth rejoiced in the corapleto nicknamo, usually tho first honor of a great commander.' The general, however, is said to have told tho following story of tho origin of the epithet to one of his messmates: During tho Creek war, when he was suffering from a bad cold, his officers improvised a tent for him covered with fiakes of hickory bark, under which he slept comfortably. Next morning a drunken hanger-on of tho camp came across the tent, and not knowing who was in it, gave it a kick that tumbled tho structure over. As the angry old here struggled out of the ruins, the toper cried out: "Hello! OldHickery! Come out of your bark and join us in a drink." The general could not himself help joining in the laughter at the incident. As he rose and shook tho bark from him he looked so tough and stern that the spectators gave him a hearty "Hurrah for Old Ilickory," and the name clung to him ever aften Lucky Little Hoys.

The trouble was constitutional cot local ; and, until Ayer's Sarsaparllla did its effective work as an Alterative and Blood Purifier, they were compelled to suffer. The wife of Samuel Page, 21 Austin St., Lowell, Mass., was, for a long time, subject to severe headaches, the resalt of stomach and liver disorders. A perfect cure Las been effected by Ayer's Sarsaparllla. Frank Roberts, 727 Washington st., Boston, says that ho formerly had terrible headaches, and until he took Ayer's Sarsaparilla, r.ever found any medicine that would giro i Permanent Relief. "Evcrr Spring, for years," writes Lizzio W. DeVeau, 2fi2 Fifteenth St., Brooklyn, N. Y., "I have had intolerable headaches. I commenced the us of Ayer's Sarsaparilla Iat March, an. I have not had a headachs siuco that time." ' "I suffered from headache. Indication, and debility, and was hardly able to drag myself about the house," writwa Mrs. 51. M. Lewis, of A st., Lowell.

Jonas Garman, Esq., of Lyklns, Ta., writes: "For years I have suffered dreadfully, every Spring, from headache, caused by impurity of the blood and bilousness. It seemed for days and weeks that my head would split open. Nothing relieved me till I took Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This medicine has cured me completely." When Mrs. Genevra Belanger, of 24 Bridge St., SprlngCcU, Mass., began to use Ayer's Sarsaparilla, she had suffered for some years from a serious affect ioa of the kidneys.
