The indinns to frighten or lull him thrust their guns up through the ciacks of tho floor Mr. Carter however kept out of their way, by rapidly shifting his position from one piank to another. After a long continued dodging ho hit upon another plan to save his life having -i barret of whiskey in ono eor-nci of Ins cubit), ho called Io his children to draw some of it and ftivo the in* dians as much to drink ns they wanted. Tho phin worked well; in a short Umo,I ho indinns becuuio so drunk that they were no longer ablo'to hold up their guns and they slacked thorn in a corner.

In the morning, when tho indinns had become sober, llioy round tluit I hoy were badly used up and short ono man. It was a riilo among tho imlsaiH that if any weio killed in n drunken brawl, the indian who committed tho murder was .forgiven; so Mr. Carter claimed ha was drunk, they shook hands in token of friendship and left cany mg oil’ tho (load indian. But in about a month an indian called nt tho cabin mid wanted to Bee Mr, Cart or. His wilo told him that he had gone up tho river to look for turkeys. The indian slatted up tho river m search. In a few minutes Mr, Carter to turned, ami sho told him that a brother of tho item) indian had boon at the cabin inquiring lor him. lie took Im gun down, examinod tho Hint and powder, and he too went up lliorivor After going about a mile, ho heard a tin key call; be crept as near as ho thought ■mfo, and answered (ho call 5 it was repeated, and he approached nearer ntftil ho judged himself within tho rango of his villa.

Finally, he saw nt an uncomfortably short distance before him, a bend, (entirely too largo for a turkoj's head,) slowly llsing behind a huge log. Mr. Carter dicw a bend on it and (ired.
