DRAMAS OF f Hi: WEST. Cvnus Lindslay and Ella Moonr. When we now flSMSI consider the hnrrnr of women and children, in con ccivin such an enemy (Indians) alway about them in tho pathless wilderness, astonishes us, that settlers could eve have been found, who would put their lives in their hands and march so far away from their native ccuntrv and home, to cn counter these dangers. Wo are surprised, that they could cheerfully meet tho labors of cultivation and the field, constantly surrounded by these dangers; and still more that they would expose themslvcs to the greatest dangers of hunting, under such circumstances. But not withstanding all these difficulties and dangers, in number and magnitude not to be described, the population of Kentucky was constantly increasing.' Flint's Geography and lliitory o' the Western Stale. With one exception, what posed Mr. Flint in retrospect, ns greatly poses me, who was an eye witness to the mysterious ctlect of the spirit of emigration to the West in the face of death in his most appalling forms. Hut long since have I vearcd to wonder that women were found to face such horrors! as I have lived long enough and seen sufficient cvidenco to prove that wheresover, fathers, sons, brother?, nnd husbands will go, daughters, mothers, sisters, and wives will go, and go cheerfully Not to speak of another connexion, which if possible, sublimes the fouI ot a virtuous woman, above even the feelings of a wedded wife but arc thev tu't wedded in term? the highest sense of the ' This entire self devotion cf women to these to Mood, or whom they are connected by till stronger tics, is neither the icluic irtuo of the cabin nor the palnee, nor is its exertion found ulone in the mi Kile rank; it belongs to human nature, und consoles us in misfortune, iu sickness, wounds and death, as it sweetens prosperity, and sheds a brighter sunshine over our days of joy and gladness. Amongst those- who lloated down the great western current, very few were wealthy, but many were they, who had icen l etter days and wero wafted to the wilderness, by tho storms and the tempests rf life. Many were females, reared in the very lap of ease, and whose bright an 1 buovant minds, long thought only ot Mich days to coma in future as they had seen iu the past. Of all the early parents of the now populous Kentucky, cf cither sex-, there were tow if any more remarkable than was I'll a Moore. In Ella was combined beyond any other woman with whom I was ever acquainted, tho masculine and 'Ivjninine in feeling. She seemed to neglect the graces of a polished woman, and Tct, was eminently graceful in evcrv act: the seemed to speak from impulse without reflection, et never spoke what herself or others could w ish unsaid. In her manners there w as a careless veil, but. it was a veil only to the common crowd; to those wh knw Iter intimately and were capable ul appreciating her true character, -he w as regarded as possessing deep reject im in an eminent degree. This was shown at an early age, in her keen insight of the true character of those prerenal to her notice. Though never known to speak with asperity, cr even with severity cf any one in their absence, her resentments were as deep, intense, nn J dur al !o as her attachments. The t rie cf '.rse c f feeling led however, to unwearied an J uiuhr inking acts of kindness and Iu e unuer every change cf fortune; the other tea o: dv to Co.uuess revcilT. even bv a whiter was too far below her i.aturetole even f r a moment l!ou!t tf.

Ilenry Mooro was a branch of an arisri r r 1 1 1 - fT 1 1 in 11 linen vinu'l fhf I T m vj 1 1& 1. 1 tutting, iu n iivsvi ? iwmj tr I suits by every society must be sujwrtcd, were dishonorable, and considered commerce; uniuiigsi uie uegrmiig punum, ' i . .l.. a i: ...w In these high or low notions as differcnt minds place them, Ilenry Moore might rave passed uselessly through life, it his fortunes had not been diverted from their course. With a natural disposition in which slept the latent fire which only demanded some violent blow to strike into a flame at a fashionable watering place, ike every other person of sense, in like condition, sauntering about with contempt in Ins heart tor tho very pleasures in which he participated, he was on a certain day leaning against a pillar, which formed a part of the front of a Hotel, and en joying one of the lew rational amusements the place afforded ; that was, gazing on the ocean, spreading like an eternity ie fore him. Several pleasure boats were skimming along shore, when a sudden flaJ r- 1 . . ..... I of wind threw one of these light barks orn her beam ends, and precipitated the persons on board into the deep. This incident was one of those which always restore such minds as that of Ilenry Moore to full energy. His hat, shoes, and upper garments, with a very valuable watch were in an instant thrown on the pavement and the intrepid young man in the waves. In a few moments he was again on shore with the only person rescued from the wreck, that person turned out to be the only daughter of a rich London Merchant, and by a very natural consequence, Henry Moore as soon as e discovered the intrinsic value of his pri considered himself at liberty to clai its possession. So thought not his family but as it is probable, not one amongst them ever suspected the true cast of his character, they threw oil on tho flame, which was blown to a conflagration by the father of the youns lady. This true Englishman returned with compound inter est, the contempt of the aristocracy for his mercantile profession, and when Hen ry Moore made proposals for his daughter received them with the following blunt address. "Young gentleman, we live in a country with two codes of laws, one for the nation and the other for the nobility, as you choose to entitle yourself. My daughter is of too good n family to be made an object of neglect. She is a true born Englishwoman, w ith neither spot nor blemish on her or her blood kindred don't interrupt me. You may think yourself an object of great consequence, but yoft are only one, and cannot if you would protect my child against the wholo of yir clan. My consent therefore, depends on one condition, and one only, and remember that my child will not, evcti to ho your w ife, desert her father cither come into my family or never again speak on the subject." The Moore family had conducted their side of the affair in such manner as to fully prepare the way for a total breach between them and Ilenry, and it is probable if they had succeeded in separating him from the object cf his choice, the breach between him and his family would have been still irreparable. Suffice it to say that Ilenry and Mrs. Moore w ith their father were in a few days in London, and in a few years, Henry took place in the counting house so long and so honorably tilled by his wife's father. Time who tames the most restive of our feelings, if he does not soften our hearts, brought reflection to Henry Moore, and on several occasions, he found that his own embittered relations, if they were determined to shew him no favor, they were iuvctcratclv determined to do him injury, w hen chance put it in their power, w hich happened more than once. These, with political reasons induced him to transfer his family and business to tho colonics, whose cause he espoused whh all the energy and rectitutc of his nature. His wife long declining, survived her removal little more than a year, and Henry Moore in his adopted country had, when the storm burst in 1775 of all that shared his blood or family affinity, only his energetic daughter Ella. It need hardly to bo said that the education and early habits of Henry Moore, were the opposite cf such as fitted him for tho pursuit which fortune threw him into, and that such a change demanded a corresponding moral change; a demand very seldom complied with. Moore had also a generosity of feeling, which w hen iudulged, is the rock of ruin to the merchant. Ho became security for a villain, who realized as much money as he could secure, sailed to Europe and left Henry Moore a bankrupt. Ella Moore was one of those human beings, who in an intellectual point of view, have no infancy. From twelve years of age, she washer father's house keeper and domestic adviser.

A frown of regret was never again seen to cloud the brow of ilenry Moore at the remembrance of loss of fortune. The next morning afler the scene we have described, he was engaged in the arrangef i i . i rn mcntsoi nis own oaniirupicy, anu mm m her domestic preparations: it having been resolved upon between the father and the daughter to go to the "back woods," as "tho west1 was then quaintly called, with all they could save after every debt was paid. Some months before tho bankruptcy of Moore, a man in all the uncouth dress of a hunter, but with a fine countenance beaming health, entered his store. In the stranger, there was a strong constrast of annearance and language. The dress besookc a man of the forest, but tho con versation, the man of education, keen observation and acquaintance with men and manners in all their extremes. 4Is this the store of Mr. Ilenry Moore?11 demanded tho stranger. "My name is Ilenry Moore,11 replied I 1 the owner, handing a chair. "And mine," said the stranger sealing himself, "is Cyrus Lindslay. lam here a stranger and without money or acquaintance." Most men, in Moore's place, would have asked "what brought you here, where you have no acquaintance and money less" but Moore merely smiled, and awaited explanation, whilst his visiter drew from his shot-pouch a large bundle, enveloped in dressed deer skin, and while opening it continued"! am here as I have truly told you; here arc some Virginia land warrants, the titles aro good, though the land is distant; it is in Kentucky." "In Kentucky," interrupted Moore, repressing an open laugh with difficulty. "Yes," replied the stranger smiling, "and not in the Moon, I have been in the land examined and surveyed it." Moore like almost every other human being of tho time who dwelt on the sea board, indulged an unrestrained curiosity to hear from the vast unknown regions beyond the mountains, no sooner heard the stranger say ho had actually been in Kentuckv,than he interrupted him at once by saying "well! well! never mind saying any more now about the titles, 1 hear the dinner bell, come and dine with me and my daughter, and tell us something about Kentucky." With perfect self possession, Lindslay put up his papers and with the tact of a real gentleman entered tho splendid dining room with unpretending confidence, in the full dress of the woods. If all tho philosophers of all tho schools, were to write each a volume to prove the contrary, tho wholo together would never heat it out of my head, but there are attractions between young men and young women, that draw those of congenial minds with a force beyond their power to control. At the first glance on the stranger, Ella was surprised, but she belonged to a class who only laugh at the ridiculous, and only scorn the vicious, she there fore received tho introduction with all her dignified politeness, and well was she re warded, even at the first interview. The stranger warmed by tho manner of his h sts, entered on a full, flowing and entrancing account of the unheard of ri vers, and mountains he had passed, and in the current of his narration named Boone. "Boone" interrupted father and daughter, "we have heard of that man." "And in him, you have heard of a man, replied Lindslay, "who is never alone. For reasons I shall not now repeat, I, when only twenty years of age shouldered my rifle and crossed the mountains into that wide wilderness. I had heard that Boone and Findlay had lived alone amid the wilds and I resolved to follow their example. For many months Ksaw no human face. Meat alone was m' food, and I found that with health maSi might live alone, but a raging and consuming fever taught me at length the penalty of being alone. Tortured with a consuming thirst, but ex'remely weak, I sat me down under tho shacde of a treo on the t verge oi a very nign rocky precipice aice idea with a river flowing at its base. Wo would I have given for a cup full the water I saw flowing almost unde my feet. Delirium followed, and when my senses returned, I found myself lying by a cool fountain and a man dressed pretty much as I am now, sitting beside me. I was truly surprised, but he was not, and as he saw me rousing from what J had been a refreshing sleep, he observed -young maa r nave Deen louowing your track for two days. I knew by the signs you left, that you were a white man. My name is Daniel Boone; from whence ..-. I i . r i I then satisfied his inquiry, and he can- j tinued, "come with me;" but it was witVJ kid rw-tt.-Arfiil ti nrvnrl f - m 1 . . tV invitation, but what was my astonishment t0 find myself in a short time anddistance ,n a camp of civilized men.

With these views I have returned to this side of the mountains, but my business here was in pursuit of a man w ho absconded deep in debt to my father. This knave I learned this very day has taken passage to England and here I am without a penny and where deer and buffalo are rather srarrn ,,k mn jso than genuine honesty," rather bitterly ' replied Henry Moore," but resuming his gaity and turning to 1 .1 ntlcl t ' Ill hji'l L. - observed, : half laughing '"conic, let us have a look : at eomo cl vour Kentucky land deedi
who knows Ella, but your husband, if you
ever hnd one may not wisn 10 rjecome . i-a. the head of a colony V This speech brought a brighter glow into the cheeks, which Lindslay scanned with his hunter's eye, as he spread the map, and warrants on the tabic. "That fine curvincr bend and high com manding bank is my choice," said Moore preserving his high spirits in appearance at least, w hat is your charge for that whole tract?" "I should suppose it is worth worth," and for the first time in a hesitating man ner at last brought out "fittv dollars." "Fifty dollars'." almost vociferated Moore, "why man you are crazy surely Lindslay. a little abashed and misunder standing the drift of his host, replied, "very well perhaps I have set too high a price.77 "I hope Mr Lindslay, that you under stand hunting better than selling landnow if you will make me a deed of that very land, I will pay you in hard money fifty sterling pounds." Lindslay with all his self possession was fairly astonished, and sat looking first at father and then daughter, without being able to bring out a single word. But the noble minded Moore who sat in the full and deserved enjoyment of a generous action, soon relieved the hunter by observing . ...... . . "You have told me Mr Lindslay, that you have no acquaintance here, then you will do me the favor to accept a room in my house and a scat at my table until we can see matters arranged." This invitation was accepted with cor diality on both sides, and Cyrus Lindslay', the Kentucky surveyor and hunter became an immate in the elegant mansion of Henry Moore. The afternoon, (even persons of quality then dined in the afternoon) was spent in hearing of buffaloes. and bears, wild deer in thousands, wild turkeys in millions, and Indians far too many, in hundreds. Never had Ella Mooro been so entranced with history, novel or epic; indeed she now heard all those blended, and new regions of the earth spreading wide and far on her reallyvivid fancy. Her soul seemed as if disembodied, and transported to an other life; she felt her heart mingling in new and exciting scenes; her sympathies caught new inspiration and shared danger, braved death, and fell or tiiumphed with beings of whose very existence, only a few hours before she could have had no conception. Did she not in reality soor for a moment into futurity, and . gain a glance of her future destiny? Henry Moore made the purchase and paid the price, but his guest seemed to have got over any excessive hurry in his return to Kentucky, and his entertainers gave no symptoms of being weary of his society. The weather, political rumor, and other subjects of excuse were, however, nearly exhausted, when on Sundayevening after returning from church, Lindslay with unafToctcd gravity observed, " to morrow morning I set out for Kentucky." Ella was rising to quit the room when a knocking at the door was heard and in an instant a new actor appeared on the scene. If there is any thing beyond the utmost depth of philosophy to account for, it is the human heart, and of individual hearts to render the problem more intricate, it is the most gifted and most powerful minds who enact the most glaring inconsistcncic. ' Dcming Rostraven, the young man who now entered the parlor of Henry Moore, and was introduced to Cyrus Lindslay, was a mar. no one could see and forget ; his form was larger and taller than common, and in structure was a model of case and grace; his high and retiring forehead and deep sunken, but dark and keen eye gave him something of repulsive, which his ease of manner and cultivated politeness could not remove. His name for the first time since his arrival at the Moore mansion threw a gloom approaching to a scowl upon the face of Lindslay, and his presence taught Ella Moore, that she was wretched. Dcming Rostraven was a distant relation, and for some months the affianced husband of Ella Moore. Being compelled to go on a journey of business to Boston, and from thence found it necessary to sail to England. Letters had informed Moore and his daughter of these movement but the vessel in which Rostraven sailed was forced back to New Y'ork , by stress of weather, and there, the political aspect of the time caused him to abandon his intended voyage, and setting out by land, arrived very unexpectedly to all, and by a strange change or rather developement of teellmg, a very unwelcome visitor to his betrothed wife. Ella Moore was one of those strong minded persons who deceive themselves, in thinking that intense passion is not onlynecessary to their happiness, but incompatible with their character. Many such pass through life undeceived iu this matter, but fearful is the discovery when made too late, that with the strength rises the extent of feeling. There was with an imposing exterior, a negation of character in Doming Rostraven; on the contrary with an exterior, little if any, less attractive, the qualities of Cyrus Lindslay. were active, daring, yet circumspect Rostraven represented the many and Lindslay the few, and if tho tatter had not appeared to her presence, Ella M oore, would probably have become Ella Rostra ven, without either much joy or sorrow he had been the chosen of her father and again fil ial affection aided his cause. But a rapid and durable chango was preparing for all parties. Rostraven and Ella met, as too many in their relative situations meet. He gave to herself the common place account of the cause of his return, did not remain long, but rose to take lcavo as his expected j father-in-law followed him to the door, cal ling out Deming, we expect you to breakfast to morrow morning" "very well," replied Deming as his footseps died avvav on the pavement. That moment decided tho fato of all parties, as Lindslay whispered to Ella with intense energy, "I must speak with you this night ;M "in this parlor
at twelve "replied Ella, as her father
re-entered laughinjr and observing "Dem ing it to good a whig to leave his country at this time. Neither his daughter or guest made any reply, but roost likely both would have been just as well pleased ifhe had sailed to England as had many other loyal subjects of George III. At the appointed hour w hen all was silent around them, Lindslay and Ella found themselves together. With all her self-command and purity of intention, Ella felt that something was wrong in the step she had taken, but an irresistible and invisible power seemed to impel her forward and to sustain her in the trial. The intrepid hunter was not himself free from a hesitation he had never experienced before, but the hour of his inevitable departure pressed, and approaching the nowtrembling Ella , and seizing her hand as he seated himself beside her, observed very solemnly, "Ella Moore most sincerely do I thank you for this proof of confidence. If I had not felt the absolute necessity to the future happiness of my life never would I have dared to request such a meeting or to put the question," and he hesitated; "are you really engaged to the man whom I saw here this evening!" "I am," replied Ella in agitation. "As to any misery it has or may inflict on me, that is nothing, but on your account dear Ella" "Why on my account? demanded Ella, with eomo surprise, and with rallied spirits. "Because," answered Lundslay, "you never were made for each other. I shall not sav. but that with such a man you J 7 may not be wretched ; yes, you may vege tate as thousands do, but I mistake your character most egregiously, if with such a man vou can ever be happv." "And I mistake vour character also Mr Liudslay," rejoined Elfa, "if you would not advise misery in preference to violated faith." "My advice cither way," replied Lindslay, is neither given nor shall be given, it is what I have no right to do: but Ella Moore, if the engagement was now to be made with Deming Rostraven, whould your Both remained long silent, whilst Ella, leaning her left hand on her forehead , was lost in a conflict of contending reflections, at length as if awaking from a dream, she replied, "no not for worlds." "Oh! Ella, dare I ask another question, if this engagement should bv anv means be broken?" The very idea of a release was too much for the presence of mind of cv'en Eila Moore, and with a smile her secret was revealed. Mountains seemed to be raised from the head and heart, not of one but both, so seductive is hope Next morning as Dcming Rostraven entered the breakfast room, lie oven started back in astonishment at seeing Linds lay in the full garb of the hunter. It was a phenomenon to the cit, he was unprepared for, and strong indeed was the contrast between the two; one in the full dress of European fashion, and the other, in his own way, as fully equipped. It never once entered the head of Deming, that such a savage could be his rival in the affections of the city bred and accomplished Ella Moore; and each of the party indulging iheir own reflections, completed their bjakfast, and Cyrus Lindslay, shouldering his rifle, turned his footsteps towards the setting sun. "If that young man was dressed like a christian," sai l Doming to Moore and his daughter, as Cyrus left ihe house," I declare he would not look so shocking he would appear more like a man." "Then in your opinion," observed Eila, "it is dress that makes men and christians high compliment to tailors and barbers.' And she left the room with a something iu her manner which gave a sting to her betrothed, his sagacity could not account f .r, but his self complacency came to his aid and all was soon at ease iu his heart But even Deming Rostraven, had his trials to encounter. Every breast is exposed in some way or other, and vanity was the wtak point of Dcming, and in that quarter he received some severe wounds. The happy day was put off under various pretences, and even the father of Ella seemed to become less anxious for the connexion; but that was attributed to, in some re spects to tho true source, perplexities of 1 i i J y , ousmcssjand to w hich was dai with accumulating force, the no! iicuiucs oi me times.
