He returned to his liome of affection,
covered with glory and wounds. His fiery
j valor was in sirong contrast to the tiDiidity
j of his brothers. No in.-u!t could aioue
them, and no rtseii'mjiit dwelt in their
! tO'llTX.
Tin !r j roud old father was compelled to

bad eaten of his bread, and j.'rown to man

In pr-!.-- of liinf tlie restlesa desire of
change stirred the old Man's bosom, and be
drtertriinrd on eintgrati ii" to Orejon.
! A select company was formed, his car
' notion d son rcmuiaudesd, and his recreant
boys, iu accordance with universal cii'tom.
: armed thctn-elvcs, anil plodded en, secure
I among iht brave rjien it Ko surrounded them,
a a a
j It was towards mnwet; the emigrants
, moved siowly ; tho rooky barrier between ;
tin ni aud tl.e " land of promise " had been 1
passed . Tl.ir hearts brat time, to the gush
( of melody, that sv, tiled from bit-hand tree;
1 the blue hu7.c of Indian summer hung over 1
: valley and stream, the falling leaves rustled
: arosnd, and the sprightly squirrel fed upon
1 the nut-covered ground.
I Thev were at this moment joined by a
man coarsely uicsxui hut nrineil witu a

th1 h,: wut, tl.t.t the Indians were
at war w.tl. the wlutt- s, m,d that lr.is-c;t
and twenty men had l ecn sont to apprise
them of dangi r, and as-ist ihem if attacked !
TI.ey Were nlariied tl !hi int!iiger;ee :
it was unexpected, a-tlu; whites and Indians
were friendly when thev left the State". j
lint there w re rc-niuteiiiMi among them,
and a vanguard of fifteen formed into some- '
thing like order, and under the lead of the i
spy and the old man's l.rro son, advanced a
quarter of a mile ahead efthe train.
They had crossed a little stream, and i
travelled some minutes, bad entered a wood, j
when suddenly, from every log, tree, and
bush, blaxed a deadly rifle. The btoutest 1
heart quailed atthedrnof arms, and the1
Indians rushed from thoir overt, tomahawk '
in hand ; the Utile party turned and fled. j
One third of their number, however, wore
left ou the field. The trniu at tliH moment 1
were crossing the stream, hut no sooner did '
they behold their companion coining, under '
whip and spur lor they were inouuteu
than catching the contagion, they faced
round, and a terriblo si-cue ensued in their
endeavor to gain the p-ppo-ito shore. Men,
women aud children, horses and wagons,
were intermingled in horrible confusion.
No order was nisi utaiucd . Husbands,
wives, sweet hearts, all were forgotten, and
every other di'siro merged iu one safety!
safety !
MiMinwhile the vanguard arrived, and in
stead of allaying, only inrvcased the hub
bub. Ileg.ii dless of the consequences, they
shamefully fled across the stream, trampling
down all who impeded their course.
We cann it say all, for one weeing the state
of affairs, railed loudly on his eoinpauious
to stop and protect those who were in the
water.
Header, who was it? It was Henry one
of thc "Coward Hrolht-rs !''
