McAlpine, a factor of the IlmNon's Xay Coinpairy, liad been ordered, in the Jpcar 171)5, to exjdore the region to the wesl and northwest of the hay; to ex amine the country about the Great Slave Lake and the Great Jlear Lake; also, to e.)lore the Mackenzie Itiver from the idplave Lake to its mouth in the Arctic T"vOcean. New trading post were to be established. A party of Athabasca In ' , j'lians served McAlpine as hunters and Vuicles. They had reached a point to the north ami far to the west of the Slave Lake, when the Arctic winter of 171)7 closed on them. It was the land of snow and cold the land where the northern lights blaze and actually crackle as they sweep out of the north ern horizon in waes of lire, flowing upward through space to the zenith. iMcAlpino had made his winter encamp ruent in the woods on the banks of the Moose Kiver. To the west the Kocky Mountains loomed, in disordered mi1 ranges, a billowy sea of mountains, white with snow. Lakes, rivers, swamps all were ice bound. The groans of the frozen earth and water, as the frost pen etrated deeper and deeper, struck -"Jfiarshly on MeAlpine's ears. The split ting of the sappy birch trees o' nights .sounded like the .sharp reports of rifles. Almost daily a loud noise "" like thunder rolled out from oho not far distant mountains and the terror-stricken Athabasca Indians cow ered as they heard the voice of the -ivalauche, which they thought was the Mctiidii of the mountain. The solitude was intense. The' were in the north ern edge of the Thick wood country. Deep lav the snow. Superstition, ever rife in the minds of the North American Indians, had its silent counterpart in EV brain of the h:tlf-ciilized McAlpine. w tales that this hard-headed Scotch liictor of the fur company heard when a .child, kneeling at his unit hcr's lap in the little hut in the Shetland-; of Scotland, canuj ttyving back to him at night in a i?C;ie W...V' scarce in the I hickwood country, as it is in all forests, and only -5jky arduous hunting was famine kept 4 jjpjof. They hunted to the south, as to Hie north the trees dwarfed rapidly, and there was no open land. Depression hung heavily over the.camp. All were discouraged, all uneasy, all alarmed. Nightly, as their lire was piled high with logs, the talk of the Indians re verted to the countless legends of the Iu,'.y Mountains. Such blood chilling tales as " The Lost Souls of the Chief 3j)untain," "The Headless Hunters of '.' Cypress Hills," or "The Three Fishers of the Slave Lake," were told 4j?i)il retold by the .-oleum group. Me- Alpine became affected with hereditary MTond sight, and his nights were made unhappy by grim virions. Hard-headed, cold-hearted, self-contained, he did not 'einty what he saw, and none knew the vguish he suffered as he thought his JFason was tottering. He resolved to limit to the north, ostensibly for game, really for the utter fatigue he needed to be able to sleep unhauutcd by the spec ters of his brain. Hunting on the 11th of .January, 1797, he descended into a little valley. There, on the surface of the ice-bound river, in tfnr newly fallen snow, he saw the well 4j?efined track of a snow-shoe. Startled by the sight, he halted and examined it, to prove to himself that it was real. Sat isfied on this point, he cautiously fol lowed it for a few miles; then, his brain clearing itself of the fantastic phantoms i of its idleness, and restored to practical vi"'' , r bought he had better return i.5- r.a)l warn his followers of the pff f-Vs),igcr of hostile Indians. Kc turncd, he told his tale. It was re-.-4kivcd with many smothered cxclam.i ? S'jJns of surprise. To a soul his follow ers refused to believe that he had seen the fresh track of a strange show-shoe. They declared that no one ever win tered in the country; that it was a wil--derness of snow, ice, and demon-haunt-jfl mountains. After a long talk it was decided by the Indians to follow this reported track on the untrodden snow of the northern wilds. Earlv the next morning the tracking party, under the command of their Ath- ibasca warrior and hunter, Matonabee, set forth, none believing that the track y:is- made, if it existed at all, by a mor tal foot. Following the trail made by McAlpine the day before, they came to the little ice bound river. There, on the newly fallen snow, were the tracks, the dragging of the heel of the shoe in the light" snow plainly visible. Not a word said McAlpine. Silently he point ed to the evidence of the truth of his s.tory. Clustering around the signs of a fejlow creature, the Indians carefully jftxamined the marks. The make of the shoe was unknown to them. Matonabee, who had lingered behind to set partridge snares, soon came up. After much thought and re peated examination of the imprint of the mesh ana lrame ot the shoe, he ue Utrcd it to be of the make of the Dog- 'Aitlinjl TllilTinc Thrt ctnlo clirtu'.ifl chat the footprint was a woman's, and j not one of the demons of the icy high lands to lure them to destruction." What could a woman of the Dog-Kibbed tribe, hereditary foes of the Athabascas, be doing, alone, in their country? Speculation was ended by McAlpine ggestmg that llio trail be lolloweu. reading out, fan-like, eves and cars alert, they advanced tip the snow-bound valley of tjie Red Deer Itiver, ever watchful foj an ambuscade. After marching several miles the Red River turned auitltly to the west; the south-f-rn slope of the valley, losing its pre (npitous character, gradually sloped back to the mountainous mass to the southwest; the northern wall became more precipitous, and towered many hundreds of feet above the stream. At its foot, sheltered from the cruel north winds, and protected from the east winds by a great mass of fallen rock, stood a little grove of spruce. To the west, a well defined pass in the mount ains admitted the balmy Chinook winds of the Pacific. Nestled in the evergreens at the foot of the wall was a hut. neatly made with the trunks of small trees, cunningly chinked with moss and grass, and skilfullv covered with bark. liluus) fiiuoke rose from the Iioti'c in a liny timn Inmnr nn instant, then was t onteil hv tin Hrht currents that eddied above tfie grove.

The' burst in the frail door, liaising her dark eyes she saw the warriors. She sat with out.st retched arms still holding the thread she was twisting, as if she were instantly changed into bronze. Not a muscle quivered until her terrified brain grasped the full extent of the misfor tune that had befallen her. The dis mayed woman, as she recovered mo tion, covered her face with her hands, and bending forward silently awaited her fate. The fire burned brightly. On a peg driven in the wall hung, in festoons, grouse; a dressed porcupine hung on another; the uncoiiatimcd portion of a beaver on another. Kcforc the fire, spitted on sharp slicks, meat was cook ing. In one corner was a great quan tity of fine moss confined by barked logs held in place bv pins driven into the earth. Neatly folded, and lying on j the moss, were .several robes made ot memoes, uiu suui.u unrci uiuuu ii beaver fur. McAlpine and the Atha - baseas stood .sileutlv looking at the scene. Gradually tin: bows unbent, the flintlock had its priming methodically spilled out into MeAlpine's hand, and economically replaced in his powder horn. Coolly was it uncocked. The trackers of the woman crowded into her little hut, and speaking to her were astonished at her answering them in their own tongue. I his is the storv she told, not all at once, but in bits, as it was prompted by anxiety to propi tiate her captors, to'save herself punish ment or outrage. Her name was Wakuzza. She, her husband and his three brothers and their familes, were, in the year 171). tented on the Cariboo Kiver, one of the many westerly branches of the MacKen zie. They were hunting ami fishing, laying up a store of food for the winter. Her four-nionths'-old baby lay iu its sus pended bark cradle, open-ej-ed, watch ing the work of the Indian harvest. Wakuzza was happy. They were pros perous, for the fish and game were plentiful. They had decided to return to their home in a few days. One night, after their lire had burnt low, she lay awake, her baby having been restless. Listening to the'low swirl of the distant Mackenzie, as it poured onward over its rocky bed to the Arctic Ocean, her quick ear caught the sound of low voices and stealthy steps. Instantly she gave the alarm. Too late! The Athabascas were among them. Shouting their war cry, they clubbed and stubbed all the men, the children, and one woman to death. In the confusion following the attack, Wakuzza had, unnoticed, rolled her baby, who was then sleeping sound ly in its moss-lined cradle, into a bundle of blankets and skins. So, when the sorrowful captive women were led off, she alone had her child with her. Lightly was borne the burden on Wa kuzza '"s back. Kcfore morning they had reached the banks of the Mackenzie, and here they found the women and children of the party who had attacked them camped, their canoes dragged high above the waters. A fire burned brightly; around it sat, iu silence, the women of the Athabascas Sitting, they counted the warriors as each emerged from the gloom of the trail. All were alive; none was wounded. Then arose the hags, clamoring with delight and curiosity. The three captive women were turned over to them for examination. Kagerly these miserable creatures took possession of the bundles the three captives carried. Two had been unrolled. They con tained jerked meat, dried fish, and" robes. Wakuzza's bundle was then placed on the earth, by the fire, the ends un llapped, and it was rolled out. There, on its back, lay the little cradle, and the baby, open-eyed at the novel scene, cooed loudly and held out its hands. Wakuzza sprang forward, snatched the infant from its cradle, turned slightly away, and placed him to her breast. Unseen by her, an Athabasca woman ran lightly to her, and, catching the nursing child firmly by the ankles, jerked it away from the" mother's arms, and, swinging it above her nead, dashed its brains out on a granite rock. Coolly lie turned to the horror-stricken mother, wickedly she threw the quivering corpse to her, saying, " Suckle it." The poor mother, stupefied with horror, mechan ically held the corpse until ordered to get into a canoe. Then another woman jerked the little body from her and threw it far out into the water of the Mackenzie, saying: " It will make good fish bait." Quivering, blood-stained, dumb, Wakuzza stood and watched the body of her dead "baby float a short dis tance, and then, with sudden jerk, dis appear uuder the swollen July waters of the might river. Her benumbed mind had not realized its loss when her owner as she, the chief prize, had been allotted to the lender of the midnight attack thrust a paddle into her hands and bade her get into the canoe and go to work. Slowly the part ascended the stream to the Great Slave Iike. They paddled across this to the mouth of the Athabasca River, then up that stream to the Lesser Slave Lake, and here they made their winter encampment. Daifv for two months had Wakuzza toiled pad dling her owner and his family to their home and away from hers toiled to earn herself into slavery. The evening that work was finished on the winter encampment, the wife of her owner, who was the woman who had brained her baby, told her that she was to become her captor's wife no longer to be a slave, but a wife. Wakuz za raged inwardly with a fury of horror at-this fate of scaring tho bed of the woman who had so cruelly murdered her child; but it was the raging of a slave, who dared not give voice to her feelings. The simple marriage cere mony beiug performed, she soon became her captor's favorite. Dai1 - the abhor rence of her unehosen hnsb: id grew on her. Springcamc, and wit j itthc pe riod of deep unrest and disturbance that fills the hearts of all red women at that time. The desire to cseipe, to go, she cared not where, became intense, and, no longer able or caring to resist it, she i roolved to risk her life in trving to cs- col- j cape. Seizing an omwrtumty, made by IUm- . the residents of the camp ffatlicrinff I around wine moose the hunter hiul the canoe into the pool, anil hegan the ascent of the small stream that slug gishly pulled its waters through the swamp. When Ihe second night was far spent and the dim moonbeams peered through the underbrush and rank grass that grows on the breeding grounds of the wild water fowl, Wakuzza, exhausted with her long continued work, tied the canoe to a bush with a deer sinew, and after carefully propping it away from the bank with a paddle, so as to leave no tell-tale mark, she fell asleep. Awak ing to find the sun high above her, he again bent over her paddle, and the ca noe sped up the sluggish stream. For three days Wakuzza woiked without food. Then she rested. Setting snares, she caught swamp rabbits. When she had live of these saved :ls a little store of food she again paddled. The stream became embargoed with the remains of old beaver dams, and spiead out into shallow marshes of great area. She had to carry her canoe over the dams, to wade in the water and mud, and drag the boat or push it ahead of her. The water fowl were nesting, and she gath i .-. r ! ujwl c'Jff from their neMs for food For two weeks, with matchless courage. she pressed on through this marshy waste of the north to the northwest. One evening her heart rose with a thud to her throat as she saw the white tops of the mountains as the sun sank slowly behind them. That night she got her foot on dry land, and the next day she reached the point under the cliff where the grove of i .spruce was. I.osl iu the wilds of the north, she gave up the attempt to join the Dog-Kibbed Indians. Free from the Athabascas, she concluded to build a hut of the fallen trees and to live iu the little grove the rest of her life. Work ing steadily with great labor she built the hut. Then she built her fire. She sat, poor woman, and pounded two sul phurous stones together to produce sparks, which she hoped would fall on the bits of punk she had gathered. For a whole dav she pounded the stones, , and the rare patience was at last re warded. I hat night, for the hrst time iu two months, Wakuzza ate cooked meat. Her entire capital for her start in her new life consisted of the bit of iron hoop, the awl, a few deer sinews, her youth, her perfect plrt'siquc, and a solitude. She snared grouse and rabbits; she trapped beaver and porcupine; once she snared a deer. She made, and orna mented highly, dresses of skin and fur. She was at rest, happy and cheerful. When the gentle wind blew through the spruce boughs she said it sounded to her like tho cooing of her tlead baby, and then she was very happy. The "tracks that had been her betrayal she had made in hunting for signs of game. She was anxious to increase the number of her deadfall traps. Humbly she told her story as she, again a captive, sat at the foreign camp fire. Anxiously she looked from face to face of the members of the exploring party to see if she had their sympathv. The story of the murder of her family and of the crushing of her infant's head was received with shouts of laughter by the Athabasca Indians. Turning her dark eyes and handsome, grave face to the Scotchman, she begged him to take her for his slave, to say that he desired her. Rending before him she, with the intense language of the Indian tongue, begged for salvation, as a lost soul might beg at God's judgment bar. Coldly tho red-haired Scot refused her. He did not want another woman, he said. Cool and unsympathetic, McAlpine was wholly untouched by the grandeur and richness of the woman's character, so fully revealed by her story, and by the evidences of her hut, its comforts" and luxuries, and the cleanliness and prctti ness of her clothing, and the skill and patience with which, unaided and alone, she had triumphed over adverse cir cumstances that would have been fa tal to most men, and through all had preserved a girl's sweetness and cheerfulness. It did not touch him. Her helplessness did not move him. Her rare beauty did not warm him and he has left it on record that she was the finest Indian woman in face and figure he had ever seen. He shut the door of his Shetland heart against her not with a slam, but quietly because he could make nothing by her. He had silcntly ciphcred her tip, and there was no money in her; on the other hand, some expense, perhaps some trouble. Yet he acknowledged the wonderful heroism of her achievement, and saw that in the rich success of her solitary life in the arctic snows she was almost super humanly endowed. And her young loveliness? He well knew that the In diau men under Jiis command would kill each other to get her. Yet he did not beckon her to him and put his arm around her, and wave back the Atha bascan brutes, and say This woman is mine." No. The factor from the Shet land isles could not see a shiHing in her, and away back at the company's Jasper House was a squaw that cooked and sewed well enough. McAlpine lighted his pipe. The wom an was left to lier fate. Then the Indi an bucks, seeing that the iuightv factor would neither have nor protect her, de clared her their own prize, and imme diately proceeded to determine her own ership", after the custom of their tribe, by wrestling. They built a fire on the iee, and there they wrestled. The beau tiful, grand, self-reliant woman was re peatedly lost and won that night. When the contest was ended and the winner approached Wakuzza to take her she once more turned to McAlpine and asked him, " "Will you not take me for your slave? Will you not save me from this fate?" Cold'and hard was his answer: "I don't want you." Instantly she stood erect, and saying, "I prefer death to living with a man of the tribe who murdered my baby!" 'she drove her knife into her brave,"true heart, and one of the noblest women of red skin that America has given birth to lay dead on the frozen snow of the.arctic regions, surrounded by a group "of astonished savages and a calculating Scotchman, Who" looked on unmoved. There was no money iu her. Your story is told, Wakuzza. Frank IHllxstm, in the Xcto York Sun. FARM TOPICS. the sccrriRxoxo atum. As very little of this 5pccle of jcrap ( Vitis ToluwliMin) l Known by your Northern readers, wn of them mar be sufficiently curlou to know more of Its peculiarities. In common with all the other native varieties, It U dirrnous pottfMniiu. or in other word the nistil- j late or fruitful plants have a jxirtfon of I perfect flowers and a nortinn of imtxr- 5 feet flowers in the earne clutT. while taminate plant have all the flowers entirely destitute of a -tigma nnd jiUtil, and are consequently all entirely barren. , ThLi being the traA of what use are f these latter plants? The are not necd- ed for the fertilization of "the fruit-bear- ing portion, as sufficient flowers areper j feet to produce an enormous crop of fruit, and it makes no difference In tho j quantity of fruit if there Is not a stami t pate plant within miles of them. This lis the case with labrutca, curtliotvu I riptirid and rotumlifvlin. V. (Tititnlis I ' have never examined critical v. I have : been cultivating the rottmdlfolia clas I for .viiite thirty years or more, and I also have proved some fortv or ! fifty varieties of the other classes J which are cultivated at the North. c? .: t i i ii .. oi'iiiu u;jis since i auanuuneu an ex cept rolttnilifului, which I find to be the only one exempt from disease. I , now have quite a large variety under cultivation, having raised a large num ber of seedlings from the seeds of the ' Scuppernong, which is a white or yel lowtsli grape, with berries varying in size from three-fourths of an fnen to one and a quarter inches in diameter, ' the clusters varying from one to twenty berries, and it is the only native grape ; which carries the Muscat aroma. None t of the varieties I have ever fail to pro j duce good crops, and the vines are en- tirely free from disease in vine, leaf and ' fruit. The weight of fruit on each vine is, beyond belief by those who have never seen this class in full bearing. I have this season had arbor crushed down ' with the great weight of the fruit on ' them, although they were built of good, j stout chestnut fence rails. Some grape ' growers complain that the clusters are , too small; this is not so; each vine is a huge cluster in its entirety. In gather , ing them when ripe, they are shaken . down on to sheets made for the pur pose, instead of being picked by hand as is the case with the cluster varieties; and in .0 bushels of the berries, which are gathered entirelv free from stems, j one will not find a rotten or imperfect oerry. jiy vineyard, wiucn 13 a siuait one, has this vear yielded four gallons of must or juice per bushel of fruit. I have one vine, a .seedling from the Scuppernong, raised by myself, which will compare very favorably in finality with the Klack Hamburgh, while the berries are from one to one and a quar ter inches iu diameter, of a black color, speckled with russet. This class of grapes always blooms about the loth of June, and consequently the clusters arc never injured by frosts. The growth of the fruit is very rapid, the crop being ripe bv Sept. 2ith. Could not this grape be cultivated in your grape-houses at the North? It is killed to the ground when the mercury gets to zero does it get as low as that in your grape-houses? If not, your summers are long enough and warm enough to ripen the fruit. I have one variety that ripens the last of August. It is a fine, large black grape, also a seedling from the Scuppernong. Vines of this class are never pruned, and rarely manured or cultivated. The roots running an inch or two below the surface of the ground, cultivation is en tirely impracticable, and the leaves from the vines furnish most of the manure they get. Stable manure is death to the vines, while they delight in lime and de caved vegetable matter. Another pe culiarity is 'that the vines can not be propagated from cuttings, as are other varieties, but only from layers, so that it is a slow process to increase them. J. Vim Durcn, Clarkesvillc, Ga., in Country Gentleman. CULTIVATE OKCIIAKDS. In the cultivation of fruit trees in the West, it is often observed that trees con tinue to grow year after year, but do not bear. Thus'apple orchards will be come often fifteen years old before bear ing, and, in fact, "many of them never bear good crops. Just how to obviate this ditliculty is a problem that has ex ercised the ingenuity of our best cul tivators all over the West, anil the reason why no conclusions have been arrived at by our best pomologists, and that will bo generally applicable, is that, as a rule, the conditions necessary to success are as varying as the localfties, soils and other minor integers surround ing each orchard planted. Shall we then neglect to plant orchards? Hy no means. Rut, say many, there is no money in fruit. The markets arc glut ted except at certain seasons. True enough, yet this should not prevent any farmer from planting an orchard on the best site near his house possible, or if the situation is not adapted to fruit, make it so, as far as circumstances will allow. It is true it is better that the soil be dry to a good depth. It is true that orchard trees of no kind will do well on a soil in which the water stands near the surface of the ground. It is as true, however, that there arc few farm houses in the West, where, by proper means, the drainage may not b'e accom plished to the depth of at least four feet from the surface. This will do well for all fruits except the pear, and the cultivation of this fruit in the West is not successful except in confined and widely separated localities. The same may be said of sweet cherries. Plums are difficult of cultivation, principally from the attacks of the curculio. The Northwest is not, of course, adapted to peaches; aside from these, however, every farmer should have other fruits in abundance, and to spare in good seasons, and if carefully attended to, there will be hardly a year "without a fair supply of fruit. There is one thing that too many farmers forget in this connection. Tha't is, all the fruit gathered for family use is worth just the price asked for it by the village grocer. It is tme that many farmers who will not attend to their or chard and vineyard do not have fruit, and will not buy enough for a fair sup ply. The objection made is, it costs too much. They have set out trees, ex pecting theni to take care of themselves and bear annual crops. This trees will not do for the best pomologists. Why should they do it for the farmer? Oth ers complain that it takes too much time to care for them. The same com plaint is made of the vegetable garden. Precisely the same course of reasoning might apply to every crop on the farm. No crop takes care of itself and pays. Farmers in the West have become" so used to suppose that they must run over large areas to get money out of crops that many can not understand how tne cultivation of a single acre in fruit and vegetables may produce half the sup port of a family so far as the table is concerned. Ye't such is the fact, and the sooner it is better known how to ac complish this, the better it will be, not only for the head of the household, but for the rising generation.

This composition is called hard ening, and when the metal is used, for filling boxes, 2 parts tin are used to 1 of hardening. The above alloy constitutes the best anti-attrition metal in use, but on account of its expense it is very little used. The anti-attrition metals com monly used are principally composed of lead, antimony, and a little tin, but they are not nearly so good as the above. M5TS ME THE Mi'SEJIOLH. TWTbM.
