Sueb wu 0000 niy btppj fortune io the wilds of Arkaueaa. I had riddel twenty good tuilei tba day, over lb worst kind of a road, the last tbrtt bourt tbroogh a swampy wood, with a cold riia drenching Be, tod ttemiogly penetrating to tbe very marrow of my booet.

Jabei Stoker (or such was tbe euphoni ou appellation of my worthy hJst) wa a Kentuokian by birtb, who bad i-emored to tba wild of Arkansas to gat eiear of beiug crowded to death by neighbors three oth er enterpriaing tettler batiug purchased land and built their cabin within a league of him.

I liked the., man for bis simple, unassuming, freuk and truthful nature, and toon got bint io tereited in tilling m ajiue of hie back wood adranturet. Tbe Indian bad departed to ward tbe rotting sua before bia day , but be bad been a successful buiiter io a coun try iiibabited by all kiud of wild beasts, and bad in bit time beeo io pur ill from wolves, bear and ptntbert a simple nar ration of which mad my blood leap aud my otrvts thrill wore than ouoe. The last adreoture which be related before retiring to red, I have eodeawred to giro at near ly a potaibl in hi own words.

Sometimes, though you may git him nled up enough to make a pitch battlu witb you, and then be aro't tbe t taiest critter to tuatage you ever teen. I gotoue il.to that tbar ox one time, and be gin me so'tliog bek agio that I e got yit . ' " 1 shall be an etgtr iiatentr to your sto ry, Mr. Stoker." " fbail you, tq jire ? Wall, let's take a drink." We took a drink. " Let me tee," resumed the old buiiter, ruuoiug bis baud through bis bair ; " it war in lb fail of tbe yetr, when my eldrt here, war a five year old, aoi my young ett war a slim chance of a toildlin:, tbat 1 etarted out on a deer buM to lay in smart heap of venitoo agin wiuler. l'eer 10 tLcm days, and in old Kaintuck, war a eritter as eouid ba counted on by any man as koowed bow to stalk em, and shoot plum ccotro, and sicb a man wtr me. liut the best will have tbtir unlucky days, and tbe day I started war one o mice. I cot about noon and 'spected to be in afore night, with ai least three deer buug up in (he tri-c, waiting for me and tbe old bon to come and foteh 'em home ; but eomebow, though I koowed they mutt be all round me, I didn't eit a siiibt of notbins but one old buck, and be led me a awlul chatA, I try ing to git to lerward of him and draw a bead 00 bit bide. " Wal!, sq-iire, tbe fust thing I knowed, it war begioniug to git duskisb, and I becrd a few wolves howl,; and one sneaking old vtrmict of a paiotcrgin a acream that made my blood start aud utir ri?e. I looked a round me, and couldn't tell whar I war at all nor wbioh way my sbtuty lay from tbar ef I'd been killed for'l ; to all thoughts of gitting borne to licity and the young ooee, war druv fruin my head to onet, and tbar war nothing left for me but to raise a fir aud squat down to i'., taking keer not to drop aaleep aud let the pain:. git bin oluicbe 00 to ni. . " It war right dull businest, titling thar by that fire all night, without being allow ed to drop off into dreaois. Kvery once in a while my eyei would git no heavy that it realiy teemed to me that I eouldu't keep 'em open no how j and then afore I knowed it, my bead would begin to nod, and I'd begin to fancy that I a war along witb Bet ty here, and feeling mouatrout comfortable ; wben, all of a sudden, to thiiig would term to ay, ' Danger, Jabes 1' and i d atrt wide awake, only to tea two eye of lire looking right at me from tbe darkucos j and then I d raise my riflo keevful, and try to get a tbot between them balls ot fire, which would suddenly leave, with a rustling in the bush es that told me plain enough the oil both ering painter war dodging out of tiht. Then I'd git np and atretoh myself, and poke tbe lire into a bright blase, and put on more wood, and walk around it a fuw timet, and squat down agin, to go the tame sleepy round right over. " Ah, Squire, it war a awful long night, I tell yon; aud I wouldn't go through it agio myself for a small figure, to eay noth ing of the oousarn it gin tho old woman, (God bless ber for a true old gal!) bekase her Jabei warn'l under tbe tame roof with ber. " Bat everything ia Ibis world bis to come to an end, and so did that oigbt; though, as I said afore, it war tho longest nigbttbateverlseen. Witb tbe first streak ot day I war up and a stirring, feeling pow erful eanttnkerous for not haviug no sup per, sleep, nor breakfant to boot 5 and then I just thought to myself, cf I could obly teo them thar paiuter's eyea agin, aud git ote good shot at the varmint, I'd be satis fied to put up witb all my inconvenience and call it squair. But nary shot could I git not I ; for the old sbc-devil war as cunning as a fox, and took kecr lo keep bertudf at a respectable distance though so'tbing told me the war about still, and wouldn't lose a good chance to make ber breakfattoff 0' me. " Wben it got light eDough 1.0 as I could see purty d'arj I koowed whar I war at least twelve good miles from home and I war so mad, to tbiuk I'd bad sich a tramp for nothing, and hadn't even been allowed to sleep, tbat I swors I d never go bacjc till I'd killed so'thioir, and I'd try desperate to make that so thing the old buck that bad drawed me on to aich a chaso. " So L set to work to End bis trial ; and arter a'bont an hour I stumbled on to't, and follored 00 for auother bojir, a ben I come io tight of tbe old scamp, feeding quiet down in a boiler. Th-ar war some trees to bide me, and, as good luck ould have it, the wiad war right to keop off the iscent. I crept down awful cautious, almost holding my breath, till I'd got within good buliet diitauee, and then 1 took good aim, aua keeled Liiu over o purty that be never koowed what hurt bim. Down I went, broke bim up, kindled a fire, aud eat a breakfatt tbat would have ntbda a Choctaw stare. " Arter I'de'l'my fill, I ftlt belter, though powerful tired and eleepy ; apd be ing determined the old she-piioter should, u'l have a taste, for her meanuessin trying to come it over me, I ut ail io tho eritter s bide that I couid dcc?.tly toie, burnt up , all the re.t, and sot off for home. The tu-t an tne rem, anu soi ou iui umnc. mv c ;i r .1.. i,,i.,n I did nurtv well : 1 but arter tbat, tbe old buck carca got ; I d have to take a rest, or gin in and bang th.enttercp.gn.new journey. Coming at last to a n.ce, cle.r spring, in a part of the wood-where tue tree, grow- heavier and beavur. nil at last ih-.t inij ed uionxtrous, and had purty much kc(t out daylight afore the leaves bejun to tail, ( throwed down my load, took a good drink, and then Bit donn to eonider tbe matter, i etiii had ao idee that the sneaking old painter warsorcewhar about, though I had- o t seen hide nor hair oi nertence "orniog, and I thought to myself what a pity i: J would be ef I should bap to fall asleep thar and p't coteued at last. "Wall, Squire, I got down, as I'm. a leliing you amongst the falling leaves, witb my back agiu a tree, and begun to think. But what Las a worn out man to do witb thinking, I d nke to know ? I don't know how loo I sot liar, 'or I don't remem ber nothing arter 1 got myself easy, till I beerd a queer kind of rustling about my ears; od looking up quiet, I fouud it war uight acin. I'd jul sense enough, though, not to be too much io a hurry about mov ing, and I toon felt my bair staod, tuht up with horror, as I beguu lo understand the whole thing, I found a lot of leaves' a gin my face aud body, and heerd a ru!t ha and stepping about ; and this, with what bad nob- atore. piu me a susuicion of the truth; and peeping up through the leaves, I seen tbe spotted vsrmiut kiveiiog ine over keerful, and a amcliing around me lo see tbat no part war loft out to the air. To havo stirred then wcuid have been tar tin death and I war even afetrd my breathing would fotch ber cussed claws and faus into mo so I kept powerful quiet, I tell you. " I don't suppose, squire, tbat thar var mint war at work over me a great while ; .
