An old officer of the United States army, who, soon after the close of the revolution ary war was ordered to make surveys ofibe country watered by the Alleghany river, informed me that Logan's nephew a remarkably fine young Indian dined with him one day in his font, and that he asked him what became of Logan. 1 killed him, was the reply. Why did you kill him? Th nation ordered it For
what reason? lie was to great a rnau to live, he talked so well, that although the whole nation had intended to put any plan in execution, yet, if Logan did not approve of it, he would soon gain a majority in favor of his opinions. Was he not, then generally right? Often: but hid influence divided the nation too much. Why did they choose you to put him to death? If any one else had done it, I would certainly have killed him: I, who am his nephew, shall inherit Iii greatness. Will they not then, kill you also? Yes: and when I become as great a man ae Logan, (laying his hand on his breast with dignity) 1 shall fee content to die. He added, that he shot him near the Alleghany river. When informed of the resolution of the council of hie nation, Logan stopped his horse, drew himself up in an attitude of great dignity, and received the fatal ball without a murmur.

An emetic, an emetic," cried he, surpri er that the druggist was no, in as great a hurry as himself. The druggi-t fearing he had by some mistake taken arsenic, administered the
desired emetic, which soon produced the usuaV effect, and the offensive matter was eipclled The man in black then fell more at ease to answer the druggist's questions. Have ye trkerv arsenic," sail the druggist. "No," said the :nan in black, ' bat I was at a funeral, and thinking the service was wine, t drank ofl'my glass, but have since found it was rum.tind as 1 am a aiember of the temperance society, Ly cmscience could not feel at tase till I l.nd got t!.Cruinous stuff Ejected."
