" llis spirit wrcips tUc misiy mounlain, Hia mcmnry sparkles oe'r Ihe fnuiitiiiii; The nicani^t riil—lhe mightiest river— Rolls mingling wilh his name furi-vur.'' Whoever has once stood upon lhe beau¬ tiful bridge near the lovely village uf S , wilt nol suun forget the prospect spread out beforo him. As far as the eye can reach on either .side may bo seen iia'tiire in her mosl beautiful aspect. The valiey hero presented lo tho view is one unmingled scene of beauly and grandeiir. In the ilis¬ lance you can see the peady walers of a noble .stream dashing over a precipice causing the spray tu ascend and forming in a clear day the variuus prismatic colors of the rainbow, and then its limpid waters rolling along over a pebly botlom mirror¬ ing the tall forest trees Ihat shade its banks on either side. To the left is a youn? ladies' seminary, almosi buried among the forest trees; its while walls can only be seen at intervals through the interstices uf the lall and weather-beaten pines. To the righl the spires towering above the trees mark the spot of one of the pret¬ tiest villages in the interior of Pennsylva¬ nia. But among all the beauties the stran¬ gers eye is particularly attracted to a lafe and expansive ' Weeping Willow,' whole tender limhs hang in sweel subjection al¬ most to the ground, forming an arbor where the noon-day sun can scarcelv find a place to re.st its beauiiful rays; it stands on Iha bank of the stream already alluded to.just where il makes a lurn and is lust among lhe rolling hills. The history of this tree is associated With many a startling iradiiion: one of Ihem It IS P.tir duty at this time l6 present to Ihe roader. Long ere the first white man had set foot Jipon the western world, whon solitude in her richest garb reigned supreme uver this vast domain of counlrv, and thc forests were made vocal by the praises of the sweet songsters of the woods. While th" wild animals of all descriptions roved in coiintles.s numbers over thu plains where now stands the cities of a civilized nation when the snuling innocence and simplicity personified lhe various tribes of Indians that spread their rights i-rom the shores of the Atlantic to the Pacific. At this time a beautiful stream made ils •way throngh one of the prettiest valleys which now constitutes the State of Penn¬ sylvania, and emptied its pure and liquid walers into the noble Susquehanna at the baseol a rock whose summit is al the pre¬ sont ume one of the richesi curiosities of our country. This siream from ils source to its junc- tinn, was one continual scene of rural grandeur which made il a favorite home fora inbe of the Mohawk Indian", then very numerous in the district comprisin"- the seciion uf country from the Delaware to the Susquehanna. Il was one of thnse calm autumnal davs in October, the sun cast its dim rays thrnugh a h.Tzy atmosphere which contrast¬ ed beautiful y will, lhe onllihes of the dark furpst; the l(iw murmuring sound as the wind stirred the (irsl leaves l)li|;hted bv the early frost, all cast a .shade of melanchnlv overthe face of nature,so peculiar to lhr- season of the year lenned tho ' Ini.in Sum¬ mer,' while the smoke was sl.iwly curling from mauy a wigwam on the bank of that qniet stream. Bul one spot was especially made to rejoice on Ihal day bv the merrv . langh of a large partv as Ihev dance'd around the trunk of a large and'beauiiful most Dmanlie spots course of the stream. Il \vas the birih-day of S.ikingo, the daughter of the Jlohawk chief, and never had .-:he looked more beauiiful ihan on the day of her IOth year.

While thus sealed on thisspnt.'the prou.-l heart of Chiquea, (he who had stuod fore¬ most in the ballle, who had gained a high reputation among his natiun fnr his hold and daring adventures,) gave way before the peculiar facinations of Sahingo—Chi¬ quea was in love. And wlien they left Ihrit spotlhey were abetrnlhed couple'.althimgii ontirely'conlrary to tho laws of these two nations to intermarry. The morning fol¬ lowing Chiquea left ihatsp.'it now endear¬ ed lo him hy one of the most sacred tie in life, with'a heavy and a saddened lieart. Afler crossing thestreaina winding palh led to an open amphilheatre al the fool of a hill the summit of whicli was covered with cedars, whose thickened tops would scarcely admil the rays of the sun. Afler he had ascended the hill ho gave une long, long, lingering look back to thy place of Salungo's home, andthen with lightoning- like speed \;r. made his way tu hig own pcoip'ic where he was warrnlj' met wiih t'ne kind salutations of his subjecis. That evening many a council fire ilht- mined the dismal sky, whilo the dance an 1 lhe many voices of Ihc innocent revellers sounded in sweel reverberation through Ihat lonely foresi, as a token of respect to their young Chief who had been absent from 'them for a few days. But Ihis Cf.uiil not make him happy; his heart was widi his Saluiigo, and Chiquea was sad and me¬ lancholy. Afew days after Chiquea had left tne home of Kankokas, Salungo becoine sad and dejected. She seemed lo wither away liko the flowers around her that were nip¬ ped by the caily frost, while her father jiroceedings. The sly thief was soun soon returning wilh another fo.x, that he had inviled lo dine with him.

" llis spirit wrcips tUc misiy mounlain, Hia mcmnry sparkles oe'r Ihe fnuiitiiiii; The nicani^t riil—lhe mightiest river— Rolls mingling wilh his name furi-vur.''
Whoever has once stood upon lhe beau¬ tiful bridge near the lovely village uf S ,
wilt nol suun forget the prospect spread out beforo him. As far as the eye can reach on either .side may bo seen iia'tiire in her mosl beautiful aspect. The valiey hero presented lo tho view is one unmingled scene of beauly and grandeiir. In the ilis¬ lance you can see the peady walers of a noble .stream dashing over a precipice causing the spray tu ascend and forming in a clear day the variuus prismatic colors of the rainbow, and then its limpid waters rolling along over a pebly botlom mirror¬ ing the tall forest trees Ihat shade its banks on either side.
To the left is a youn? ladies' seminary, almosi buried among the forest trees; its while walls can only be seen at intervals through the interstices uf the lall and weather-beaten pines.
To the righl the spires towering above the trees mark the spot of one of the pret¬ tiest villages in the interior of Pennsylva¬ nia. But among all the beauties the stran¬ gers eye is particularly attracted to a lafe and expansive ' Weeping Willow,' whole tender limhs hang in sweel subjection al¬ most to the ground, forming an arbor where the noon-day sun can scarcelv find a place to re.st its beauiiful rays; it stands on Iha bank of the stream already alluded to.just where il makes a lurn and is lust among lhe rolling hills.
The history of this tree is associated With many a startling iradiiion: one of Ihem It IS P.tir duty at this time l6 present to Ihe roader.
Long ere the first white man had set foot Jipon the western world, whon solitude in her richest garb reigned supreme uver this vast domain of counlrv, and thc forests were made vocal by the praises of the sweet songsters of the woods. While th" wild animals of all descriptions roved in coiintles.s numbers over thu plains where now stands the cities of a civilized nation when the snuling innocence and simplicity personified lhe various tribes of Indians that spread their rights i-rom the shores of the Atlantic to the Pacific.
At this time a beautiful stream made ils •way throngh one of the prettiest valleys which now constitutes the State of Penn¬ sylvania, and emptied its pure and liquid walers into the noble Susquehanna at the baseol a rock whose summit is al the pre¬ sont ume one of the richesi curiosities of our country.
This siream from ils source to its junc- tinn, was one continual scene of rural grandeur which made il a favorite home fora inbe of the Mohawk Indian", then very numerous in the district comprisin"- the seciion uf country from the Delaware to the Susquehanna.
Il was one of thnse calm autumnal davs in October, the sun cast its dim rays thrnugh a h.Tzy atmosphere which contrast¬ ed beautiful y will, lhe onllihes of the dark furpst; the l(iw murmuring sound as the wind stirred the (irsl leaves l)li|;hted bv the early frost, all cast a .shade of melanchnlv overthe face of nature,so peculiar to lhr- season of the year lenned tho ' Ini.in Sum¬ mer,' while the smoke was sl.iwly curling from mauy a wigwam on the bank of that qniet stream. Bul one spot was especially made to rejoice on Ihal day bv the merrv . langh of a large partv as Ihev dance'd around the trunk of a large and'beauiiful
most Dmanlie spots course of the stream.
Il \vas the birih-day of S.ikingo, the daughter of the Jlohawk chief, and never had .-:he looked more beauiiful ihan on the day of her IOth year.
Salungo was, one of those beings whom one would luve withont e.vaelly knowing whj-.

While thus sealed on thisspnt.'the prou.-l heart of Chiquea, (he who had stuod fore¬ most in the ballle, who had gained a high reputation among his natiun fnr his hold and daring adventures,) gave way before the peculiar facinations of Sahingo—Chi¬ quea was in love. And wlien they left Ihrit spotlhey were abetrnlhed couple'.althimgii ontirely'conlrary to tho laws of these two nations to intermarry. The morning fol¬ lowing Chiquea left ihatsp.'it now endear¬ ed lo him hy one of the most sacred tie in life, with'a heavy and a saddened lieart.

That evening many a council fire ilht- mined the dismal sky, whilo the dance an 1 lhe many voices of Ihc innocent revellers sounded in sweel reverberation through Ihat lonely foresi, as a token of respect to their young Chief who had been absent from 'them for a few days. But Ihis Cf.uiil not make him happy; his heart was widi his Saluiigo, and Chiquea was sad and me¬ lancholy.
