The Tanthcr's l-cay.

The restless spirit of gain and love of novelty, which characterises so many ot their countrymen, had induced Josiah Kalon and ILinnuh his wile to emigiate from pleasant and fertile banks on the ( loiinectictit, to one of the ridges 011 the Alleghany mountains a chain that has often been called the back bone of Uncle Sam's huge body. .Mistress Hannah Eaton was the party dominant in the small household of the honest and easy Josiah, and it had been through tier faculties oi argumentation that he h.id been induced 'or rather forced ) to pull up stakes," leaving his comfort:. hie liomcscaicd and paternal acres, to seek gam westward with tlie inarch oi empire The earthly tabernacle of .Mrs. ll's spir it, was of that kind with which we are apt to appreciate ideas of strength and the wcarinc of those mysterious insignia of matrimonial power, yclept breeches." And in truth, ev r since her husband won her, as a -'strapping gal," iu the land of pumpkins, she had made it her duly to see to llitngs;' or in words, lo be both master and mistress. She was not destitute o" affection for what the world called her lord; ami as his Kip Van Winkleish habits asked no more than to pursue the 'even tepor of their way,' kindness alone answered, as good a purtiose to him as the t love. 1 all he was, uncouth in 10 j-jjcai ai:ce, y e t i iiruieiisu 5ulhim iwj stowed awav amongst his great bones, and a warm heart in his big bosom. Hannah had caused three large "ki;ivered" wagons and a score of critters," biped and cpiadruped to come to a halt at the foot of one of the finest summits of the above named ridge, ami near "die mouth of a ravine, through which ran a small tributary to the Potomac. After preparations lsad been made to "camp," for ihe night, she failed adivau of her "followers" to consider the propriety of a permanent location. I would not have the reader to beleve that it was anv part of her intention to do as they might suggest; oh no. Like the Grand Sultan, she heard their opinions, lo be sure, but had determined long before, what course should be pur sued. Josiah had said "list : to all had advanced, and two hired men and women by way of amen, had also said, 'jist so,' when she declared it to be the opinion of the whole council, "to settle right down." Accordingly, they settled right down, and commenced turning the wilderness into the ploughed field. Our worthy couple had been n.r.n and wife seven long years, and yet no infant voice had r-hecred them with its music. They were ;;i effect "alone." The sun Fn.n"! and set on as fertile iields as ever lorwardeil the labors of the husbandman; ad Heaven seemed to smile upon them. The breeze rippled the waters of the brook that ran before their door in quiet murmuring; the aroma of beautiful (lowers scented the air, and the whole landscape seemed the picture of inert happiness; but still they were alone. Thev fell the need ol some dear object 0:1 whom to place tin ir best aheelion-. Mrs. E. with the piety of Connecticut, whose amiable daughters, when married, have caused so immv to I less their 'home of gentle voices and kind eyes,' knelt to her God: likelier namesake of old; and in bitterness of soul 'wept sore,' praying that she might not be childless. "The Lord l cuiembc! ed her. 'Twas a fine morning in August, when little Samuel Eaton was about seven years old, that he was making a thim in the brook that ran before hi-s father's door. lie was ati only and petted child his mother almost idolized him. There lie was, with his trovvsers tucked up above his knees, working like a beaver his mother's bold eye gleaming out from be neath his sunburnt hair, and with some o r 1 his father strength, ltitrging a large stone in bed of the stream. 'Sammy, you'd come in, had'nt ye?' said Hannah. in a tone half motherand half mate, '.o o o, i giss not yet,' said Sam. An acorn came floating down the water. The boy took it up looked at it was pleased, and 'reckoned' in his mini! there were more up the 'gully,' and when his mother's back was turned, oil" he started after acorns. The gorge of the mountain in'o which he was about to enter, had been formed (the work of centuries) by ihe attrition of the stream he had just been playing in, and walking 0:1 a level that bordered each side of the w ater, he boldly entered the ravine. An almost perpendicular wall or bank ascended on each side to the height of an hundred feet, composed of crags and rocks, frittered by decay and the storm info fantastic shape and position. A few scattered bushes and trees sought nourishment from the earth that had fallen from the level above; and excepting their assistance and the uneven surface of the rock, this mutual parapet seemed inaccessible, but to bird and beast. About an eighth of a mile from the entrance, a cataract closed the gorge, throwing up its white veil of mist in seeming cuardianship of the spirit of the waters. The verdant boughs hanging over the bank cast deep gloom upon the bed below; while so lofty was the distance, they seemed to crow out of the sky blue patches of which w ere to he seen peepin? between them. llaaatih Eaton soon missed her hoy;

but as he hadolieu wandered to the iields on ihe crag; Ins savtige features but a step wheie his father was at work, site conclu- .from the mother's lace. '(Jo away! go ded he must be theie, and checked com- lawny!' shrieked Hannah, hoarse with boring fears vviih the hope that he would re-jror. You shant have my child.' Closer turn at the hour of dinner. When lie .still closer he came; his led eves Hashinc

came, knew and Josiah nor . nv of his men here her 3011 was, then the agita ted moiiier exclaimed, 'He's lost! he's lost! and my poor boy will starve and t! woods!

She knew not why, but a presentiment that the boy had followed the course of the stream dwelt stronoly 011 her mind. 'I can't find him, Hannah,' said her husband, as he rejoined her not far from the mouth of the cor're. An eagle tlcw past the mother as she entered the ravine. She thought to herself, the dreadful birds are tearing my child to pieces; ami trantie she hastened on.

'Oh, my boy; my brave boy w ill die!' and writhing her hands in agony, she sunk at hpr husband's feet. The pain of "hope deferred' had strained her heart strings to tlie severest tension, and it seemed as if the rude hand of despair, had broken them all! The terrified husband threw water up on her p. lie face, and strove by all the arts he knew to win her back to life again. At last she opened her languid eyes, stared wildly around, and rose trembling to her feet, As thus she stood, like a heart broken -S iobe, 'all tears,' a fragment of rock came tu m 'di ling down the opposite bank. Site looked up; a wild scieain of joy burst from her lips-. She was herself once more; fir half wav up the csccr.t stood her own dear hoy! Hut even while that glad cry was issuing from her lips it turned into a note of horror "O God, mercy, mercy!' The crag en which the bov stood pro jected from the solid rock in such a wav as to ie.ing about twelve leet above the bank. Kight below one of the edges of tiiis crar. partly concealed among some low bushes, crouched a panther! The bold youth was aware of the proximity of his parents, and ihe presence of his dangerous enemy, at ab ,-ut ihe same lime. lie had rolled down the stone, 111 exultation, to convince his parents of die high station he had attained; and he now stood with another in his hand, drawing his arm back and looking at them, as if to ak whether he should throw at the terrible annual before him. Till then the mother seemed immovable in her sus pensc; but conscious ot tlie creat dam'er ol Ik r son if he irritated the beast, she rush some distance up the rock, anu motioned with her hands and head that he sheuh not throw. Yet with the feeling mini of childhood, and a temper little used to control, he fearlessly threw the fracment with all his might at the ferociour. savage. It stru.-k him on one of his feet. He gave a sunder, grow 1, and lashing his tr.tl vrilh fury, seemed about to spring. 'Viet your ri lie Josiah. 1 ne poor innn stirred not; his glazed eye was fixed with a look if death upon tlie panther, and lie appeared paralyzed with fear. His wile leaped from her strand, am phicinc her hand on her husband's shoulders, looked in his face; do von love vour child! He slatted as if from sleep, atid ran with fuiious haste from the ravine. A cam the mother looked towards her son. He had fallen upon his knees, and was whispering the little prayers she had taught him, not in coward fear, but an in definite thought came across his mind that he must Hie. 1 he uisiracicd mother could keep still no longer, fsiiu rushed up the energy of despair, reckless of all danger, t'-lnking only of her son. The rocks crumbled and slipped beneath her feet, yet she felt rot; the sharp rocks cut her ilesh, but she heeded it not. On, en, she struggled iu her agony. The ferocious creature pause. for a moment when he heard the wretched mother's approach; true to his nature he sprang at the bov; he barely louched the era?, and fell backward, as Hannah ascended the opposite side. 'Ah!' said she laughing" deliriously' the panther must try it it acain before he parts us my boy; but we wont part!' and sinkingon her knees beside him, she fondly folded him to her breast, bathing his young forehead with her tears. Unalterable in his ferocity, and the manner of cratifying it, the panther acain sprang from his former situation. This time he was more successful: his fore feet struck the edge of the crag. 'He will kill us, mother, he will kill us!' and the boy nestled closer to his mother's bosom. Tho animal struggled to bring his body
