I THE YANKEE PEDLAR.
J&shua; Peabody was one of the five sons of
a Connecticut farmer, who had just enough
Jand to support one family, and no more; so
that all the; sons but the eldest early dcscovered
the1 necessity of ressortinsr to some business, in
which the v could support themselves by their
own exertions. Long before Josnua was oj
age, lie had determined to pursue the honora
Vlfi pmhtnvmpnt of rjeddlincr. In the fall of
the year in which Joshua was 19, he obtained
his" father's consent to try his skill in the em
ployment he had chosen, and was soon equip
ped in first rate style not with a fcrazy cart
and half starved horse, as was the custom fifty,
years ago ;. but with a substantial, well made
and well fed horse, 6& a covered wagon glowing
with all the colours of the rainbow ornamen
ted with curtains, and trimmed with many
yard of red cotton fringe. His load requires
a minute description, as it is often thought very
wonderful, that' a peddlar can travel a thousand
miles and back, and make money, by selling
out a load which does not appear to be worm
half enough to defray his expenses.
.' t The most bulky part of our hero's load con-;
sisted of wooden clocks without cases, WJ1C
cost two dollars and fifty cents a piece, on which
he expected to make a profit of what he called
temper cent. tnatis,icu uwes 00
cost So forty or fifty of those were snugly
S towed on the bottom of the wagon, and a nice
them to keep them secure. On
f this lid was placed a bag full of whiplashes, a
few parcels of cigars,, and a u umber of boxes
containing all the variety of combs, from coarse
Wn louse-traps to superfine ivory and high-
finished tortoise shell. t The fore part of the
wafron box, on which Ke expected to sit, con
stituted a separate apartment, the approach to
which is "secured by a formidable pad-lock
which dangled in front. This box contained
an assortment, on the profits of which he was
to subsist himself and horse ; and consisted of

SUDStantiai, coiiuoriauici icdi-nuiiuiig ov,
aii independent unassuming farmer. Thus
equipped,' Joshua made a comfortable excur
sion to Ohio, and the same was annually re
peated for several -years. In every voyage
numerous incidents occurred, of sufficient im
portance to deserve a place in some of our
fashionable periodicals, with all their minute
details spun out into the formidable length of
most modern taies, in wnicn a page is wkcu up
in telling what fifty years ago would have been
told in a sinsrle line. Of these occurrences, it
jg my humble province to relate one, and that
with all convenient brevity.
In Joshua's fourth voyage, he had with him a
larger number of clocks than usual ; and would
willingly have sold them at a less price than
i formerly, but for the fear that it would injure
his business, and lower'the priceof his clocks
fori ever after. He, therefore wisely concluded
to-keep up the price to twenty five dollars, as
usual; and when he could ao no better, to taice
anv thine that was offered for ten of it, provi
Hed the remaining fifteen was paid in cash. In
this manner he obtained a great "many queer
i articles ; and in many instances had to exert a
l goodly share of ingenuity! to dispose of them
to advantage. One farmer insisted on his tak
ing stock, as he termed i, to which Joshua
readily agreed. The old gentleman had in his J
mind's eye, at the time of making the proposi-
tion a calf, which was so poor he was afraid it
would die before spring. The said calf was
! selected and with all due formality was deli-
; vcreu to our ncro. ne maue no odjcuuu , uui
"wth his usual gravity pocketed his fifteen dol
l jars tied a rope round the calf s neck hitch
L rd it to the back of the wagon and drove on.
Great Wonder prevailed throughout the coun-
try, to sec the pedlar with so mean a calf or
indeed with any kind of calf, tied to the wagon ;
!- and many were the5 questions asked concerning
, - so rare an occurrence. , But Joshua was as
grave as" ever. He knew his own business, and
that was enough for his purpose. In one of
his! peddling voyages he had formed an ac
quaintance with 44 Squire Leeland," as he was
called in Licking county, who had long been
in the habit of reading whatsoever came in his
way, that treated on agricultures; and was ex
tremely anxious to, improve his breed of cattle
and. sheep. In fact he had paid a large sum of
nioncy the year before lor a merino buck and
T'tewe. by which he had acquired so much cele
britv that he was looked up to with wonder hv
apart of his neighbours, and laughed at by the
rest. " .-i . i'
Tb the Squire's, then,' Joshua made his way
not that he had the least wish to cneat nis old
friend. He was too honest for that; for he
1 was in the habit of boasting that he cheated no
bodv told no lies, and never travelled a road
j which he was afraid to travel f again, " But
then," thought Joshua, ifthe Squire has a mind
j to cheat himself, it's nobody's business.- I can't
be to blame." . , j
i j His reception, at the house of his old acquain
i ) lance was cordial as he could have desired, and
j the evening was spent as usual in recounting
j I the incidents which had occurred to each other
since they last met. In the morning the Squire
or the first time noticed thW calf. "Why,
, Joshua, what, in the name of common sense
I have you got there ?" Nothing but a poor,
' mean lousy, calf, that's all r But what did
yem-bring it here fort' V tell you what,
Spuire, it's a pretty considerable long story,
j and bolish fine to boot; but I must tell it to
jyou. You know the Boston folks are full of
notions, and amongst other foolish ideas that's
got into their heads, they think if they can only

patience to hear folks talk so. Now, look at
that calf! and s'pdsing he did come over from
vUnA onr4 ihtv ret him a Devonshire
bull,, and gave five hundred dollars for him :
do you s'pose he'd improve your oreeu oi cu i-
tie'" The eyes of Squire Leeland opened wide
with astonishment, and he inquired with the
greatest eagerness, if the calf was in fact one of
the far famed breed from Devonshire. 'I
didn't say he was, for I don't know about
breeds but if General Braynard has a mind to
pay five hundred dollars for him, and give me
fifty dollars to fetch him all the way from Bos-

Joshua answered with his usual circumlocution,

SACRED FIRE OF THE INDIANS.
. . BY LEWIS CASS.
Many of the plcculiar customs which formerly
existed amonc the Indian tribes, are now Ore-
served only in traditions: of these, one of the
most singular was an institution for the preser-
vation ol an eternal hrc. All the rites and
duties connected, with it are yet fresh in the Now it is probable that the heated aurprocee
recollection of the Indians; and it was extin- ding from the lungs, may form an atmosphere

The prevalence of a similar custom among the
nations of the East, from a very early period, is
well known to all who have traced the history cally, as a non conductor, and prove an inl
and progress of human superstitions. And pediment to the transmission of the deleterious
Irom them it found its wav to rpcp

should be selected as the object of worship, by
nations ignorant ol the true religion, and see

declared the manners and morals of the polished
pcupie 01 antiquity. Tne attections seem to
require something visible and tangible for their
support. And this mysterious agent was suf
ficiently powerful in its effects and striking in
its operation, to appear as a direct emanation
lrom the De ity. But there was a uniformity in
the mode of worshin. and in tho

observance, which leaves no doubt of the com- an account of several chemical operations per

were fire worshippers, and without giving full
credit to all the-marrellous tales related of this
1
tribe by the early French travellers, we mayyet
be satisfied from the many concurring accounts,
that they were believers in the efficacy of an
eternal lire. -r
The Chippewa tribe formerly inhabited the
regiuii owui. uFcnui, aim iw uuui
house and seat of the eternal fire west of the
Keeweemau Point. Here lived the principal
chief, called the Mutchekewis, who exercised
more authority and assumed more state, than
would be compatible with the present feelings
of the .Indians. The designation was official
and not personal, and the office hereditary in
the direct male line. He was supported by
voluntary contributions, his Muskinewa, or
provider, making known from time to time his
necessities, by public proclamation. Whatever
was required upon these occasions, whether
food or clothing, was immediately furnished.

In the village where he resided, and near his
cabin the eternal fire was kept burning. The
altar was a kind of rude oven, over which no
building was erected. Four guardians were
selected by the Mutchekewis to take charge oi
the fire. Two of these were men, ana two

the altar, and a fire kindled, at which a feast
was prepared. A great dance was then held,
and the viands consumed, And it is added the
patient seldom failed to recover.
Once in eight years, the whole Chippewa
tribe assembled at their principal village,
about the season of the buds. Early in the
it was in like manner smoked. It was then
passed to the children. This ceremony con-
sumed the day and early the next morning, a
feast was held, at which the men, and women,
and children, ate in separat groups, silently, and
without singing or dancing. In the evening
they departed for their different villages,

Silk a Protection against Infection.
A silk covering of the texture of a common
handkerchief, is said to possess the peculiar
property of resisting the noxious influence, and
of neutralizing the effects of malaria. If, as is
supposed, the poisonous matter is received into
the system through
the lungs, it may not oe

Ladies Wanted. A paper printed in the state
of Alabama, speaks of a most deplorable and
alarming scarcity of young ladies. Every
respectable 'female, native or stranger, found
there, is as soon as possible, hurried to the hy

cottons or the broadcloths are frowned upon
or not, the ladies are always welcomed with
smiles. They shall have protection forever.

FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD,
WILL be given for the apprehension and
delivery in Newbern Jail of my Negro
Men HUGH and JIM. They ran away from
my house in Beaufort, about ten days 'ago. 6
Hugh was raised on Mr. .Gaston's Plantation on
Brices Creek, and I expect both of them are
dodging about in the bushes at that place.
Hugh is about 28 years old, 5 feet 8 or 9 inches
high, is not a very dark negro, is trim built,
with very thick lips. He wears a long, blue
cloth coat occasionally. He has a pass written
by my daughter, dated about two weeks ago,
to go to Neuseand return, which he will pro
bably show if interrogated. Jim is a black ne
gro, about 25 years old, about 5 feet 6 inches
high, and thick set. He was raised by Mrs.
Thompson, in Beaufort, and has a wife at James
T. Jones' plantation, on Clubfoot's Creek.
Jim has a pass written by me, about two weeks
ago, with leave to go to Clubfoot's Creek and
return immediately. They have taken a longer
tour than I expected, and if they return to me
immediately, without cost, I will endeavor to
sell them to the man they want to live with.
When Hugh reads this, he had betterreflect on
his error, and come home without delay.
