That ponion of the army al- ready over had observed the precau- tion to post itself in a strong position among heavy timber that grew near the river-bank ; and on this account the first volley of the Indians proâ€" duced a less dea ly effect. For all that, several fell; and those who were exposed to vrcw were still in danger. The fire was returned by the troops, repeated by the Indians, and again answered by the soldiers â€"-â€"now rolling continuously, now in straggling volleys or single shots, and at intervals altogether ceasing. =Thc troops from the other side continued to cross. Hitherto, they had been protected by the fire of those already over; but at this crisis a manoeuvre was effected .by the Indians, that threatened to put an end to thepassing of the river, unless undcr a destructive fire from their rifles. Just below our position, :1 nar- row strip of land juttcd out into the stream, forming a miniature peninsula. It was a sand-bar cans- .cd by an eddy on the opposite side. It was lower than the main bank, and bore of lin.ber-â€"cxcept at its extreme point, Wllcrc a sort of island had been formed, higher than the peninsula itself. On this island grew a thick grove of ever- green treesâ€"palms, live-oaks, and inagnoliasâ€"in short, a hommock. It would have been prudent for us to have occupied this hominock at the moment of our first crossing over; but our general had not perceived the advantage. The Indians were not slow in noticing it; and before we could take any steps to hinder them, a body of warriors rushed across the isthmus, and took possesswn of the hominock. The result of this skilful manoe- uvre was soon made manifest.â€" The boats, in crossing, were swept down by the current within range of the wooded isletâ€"out of whose evergreen shades was now poured a, continuous stream of blue fiery smoke, while the leaden missiles did their work of death. Men were seen dropping down upon the rafts. or tumbling over the sides of the canoes, with a heavy plunge upon the water, that told they had ceased to live ; while the thick fire of musketry that was directed upon the hommock altogether failed to dislodge the daring band who occu- pied it. There were but few of themâ€"â€" for we ,had seen them distinctly as they ran .over the isthmusâ€"but it was evident they were a chosen few, skilled marksmen every man. They were dealing destruction at every shot. It was a moment of intense exâ€" citement. Elsewhere the conflict was carried on with more equality -â€"-since both parties fought under cOVer of the trees, and but little inâ€" jury was sustained or inflicted by either. The band upon the islet were, killing more of our men than all the rest of the enemy. -.There was no other resource. than to dislodge them from {the throughout the whole army.

Iknew to what he referred, but could only answer him with a sigâ€" nificant look of gratitude. An orderly, sent to us with a message from the general, was seen approaching from the camp.â€" At the same instant, an Indian ap- peared coming out of the timber, and, keeping pace With the orderly, simultaneously with the latter ar- rived upon the ground. As soon as the orderly had whispered his message, the ‘talk’ began. Abram was the spokesman on the part of the Indians, and de- livcicd himselfin his broken Eng- lish. The others merely signified their assent by a simple nod, or the affirmative ‘ Ho ;’ while their nega- tive was expressed by the exclama- tion ‘Cooree.’ ‘ Do you white folk want make peace?’ abruptly demanded the ‘Upon what terms?’ asked the head of our party. ‘ Da tarms we gib you are close ;: you lay down arm, and stop de war; your sogas go back, an’ stay in dar forts ; we Indyen cross ober time forth, for ebber offer, we make do grand ribber da line 0’ boundar atween do two.

The honor belongs to those who immeâ€" diately engage in it. Let me ask, then, what is the chief business of war? It is to destroy human life, to mangle the limbs, to gash and he w the body, to plunge the sword into the heart of a follow-creature, t0 strew the earth with bleeding frames and to trample them under foot with horses’ hoofs. It is to batter down and burn cities, to turn fruitful fields into deserts, to level the cottage of the peasant, and the magnificent abode of opulence, to scourge na- tions with famine, to multiply widow and orphans. Are these honorable deeds? Were you called to name exploits worthy of demons, wold you not naturally select such as these? Giant that a necessity for them may exist. It is a dreadful necessity, such as a good man must recoil from with instinctive horror; and, though it may xcmpt them from guilt, it cannot turn them into glory. We have thought that it was honorable to heal, to save, to miti- gate pain, to snatch the sick and sinking from the jaws of death. We have placed among the revered ben- efactors of the human race the dis- coverer of arts which alleviate hu- man sufii‘crings, which prolong com- fort, adorn and cheer human life ; and ifthcse arts be honorable, where is the glory of multiplying and ag- gravating tortures and death?” Dprrss. on ,Hoosswrvns.-â€"~May the above heading not create a scowl on any lair facc,_for the duties of housewives are numerous, and should be well studied.

ENDING IN A R~TiiEAT. 1 Among the wounded who lay at! my feet, there was a young fel- low whoml know. He appeared to be shot through both limbs, and willlbrcd, of which our general looked upon it, and recognised in our besiegcrs, disentangle us from thus taunt- our perilous Situation. the fantastic draping, ingly displayed, the loved flag ofour country.

Had such a passage been possible, it would have brought the cncmy between two fires, and thus put an end to the ‘surround ;’ buta crossing was not intendedâ€"- only a ruse. It had the effect designed; the prevent the attempt at crossing. In the hurried council that was held, there were no two opinions as to what course of action we should pursue. The proposal to ‘march back to Fort King was re- ceived with a wonderful unanimity ; and. with little loss of time, we took could not move his body from the spot. His appeal to me for help was the first thing that aroused me from my indecision : I remembered that this young man had once done me a servrce. Almost mechanically, I bent down. grasped him around the waist, and, raising his body, cornâ€" menced dragging him away. With my burdenI hurried back across the isthmusâ€"as fast as my strength Would permitunor did I stop till beyond the range of the lndian rifles.

In the battle of the Ouithlacoo~ choc, no doubt some of our enemies had ‘bit the dust;’ but their loss was much less than that of our, own troops. For myselfâ€"and I had ample opportunity for observa- tionâ€"I could not swear to a single a comrade who could.

The proposal for thus accounted for by the com- manderdnâ€"chicf, who was now in hopes of being able to strike a de- cisive blow. His only apprehen- sion was, that the enemy should rec treat, before Clinch could get for- ward upon the field.

They stepped forth a pace or two, then halted in perfect order of battleâ€"so that their numbers could easily be told all from where we stood. ‘Count the rod warriorsl’ cried Oceola, in a triumphant toneâ€" ‘count them, and be no longer ignor- ant of the strength of your enemy.’ As the Indian uttered these words, a satirical smile played upon his lips; and he stood for some sec- onds confronting us in silence.

A number of years ago, he was Judge of a newly organized County I haps poverty, the bar-room of a tavern was used as a court room, and the stable as a jail. One day, during the session of the court, the Judge had occasion to se- verely reprimand two lawyers, who were wrangling. An odd-looking customer. who sat in one corner, listened apparently with great satisfaction at ihe rcprool, and presuming on an old acouaintance, and the Judge’s well-ltiiown good humor, sang out: ‘ Give it to them, old gimlet cycs !’ ‘ Who was that ’l’r inquired the Judge. ‘ It was this ’cre old hoss,’ answered the chap, raising himsel‘ up. ‘ Sheriff? observed the Judge, with great gravrly, ‘ take that old boss and put him in the stable.’ Why was Adam the best runner that ever lived?

Some housewives, either. through idleness or ignorance use such vile ingredients as soda and sal- eratus, which, used for such pur-, poses is destructive to health, and, instead of bread being the stafi'of' life, it becomes its destroyer. We. have frequently noticed the cnfee- bled and dyspeptic appearance of people who use this broad. :Good bread is one of the most im- portant institutions of the world, and it is so highly prized in some coun- tries of the East, that where a, hOi‘iscwifc is ignorant of the art it is a. lawful cause of divorce. We think it asuflicicnt cause of at least immediate improvement, as upon this art depends, to a great extent,- the lives of children, and the physi- cal welfare of families. To make good bread, hop yeast should be used. To make this, yeast, take one handful of hops to. three pints of water and half dozen of potatoes ;~ those boil together about fifteen minutes; then strain through a cullendcr, which let cool ; add to this one teaspoonfulof old yeast, which can easily be procured, to start the rising. After it has ris-' on cover it over in a pot, and it will; keep a week. Use one teacup of- this rising with two quarts of milk, stirer up in a stiff batter with flour. thn risen until it becomes light, bnead up the bread, not too stiff, and kut it into the pans, and set it to rise pgain. Then bake it in a moderate avcn about one hour until it becomes orown. o SELFJNSTRUCTION IN ~ FARMING. New beginners should take, any opportunity to instruct themselves in agriculture ; not only the theory, but the practical way of doing the work. They should also adopt their. systcm to this soil and climate. When they start out to raise acrop,‘ - they should make investigation be fore they commence from some re-, liable source, as to how the land should be broken up, the. best kind of seed, the quantity to, be sown, how to be worked in planting, and how to be cultivated until it reaches maturity. This information should not be obtained from pretenders, but from farmers who raise large crops" mcr, he is certain to grow in wealth and prosperity, as the profits are, enormous. This success is entirely a work of skill and industry; the. latter, without skill, is thrown away. After the information relative to the raising of each particular crop is ob- tained, comes the system of econ. omy and fertilizers. It is in this branch that the farmer shows his skill, and makes his money. There" should be no part of a crop which is, not turned to practical use. All the tops and refuse portion should be thrown on the manure heaps. the hog pen, or Used at once in rows for green dressing to later crops. ~‘Even, weeds are thus a benefit. Thus evcrything is being turned into ducc and money.
