THE FAWN OI’ PASCAGOULA :—OR THE CIIUMPA GIRL OI‘ MUllIl.l:‘.. Tlicfofloiving romantic story is from at Journal of the Ladies‘ Fair, at Mobile called " the Bow of Cupid." Shell I tell on a story of real life, as romantic and alfectin us any you will rid iii fiction? Wcll— i-ton. Every citizen of Io- hile is familiar with the sight of the Indian girls who are seen in the winter. With their little bundles of light wood on their backs, they innrk the itdvent of cold weather as regularly as the mocking-bird and the cardinal chronicle the approach of Spring. The peddle their small parcels of pine from door to door, and iii are saiiliar with the soft quick, petitionary voice in which they exclaiin ' chuiiipa,' as they offer their cheap burdens for sale. These Iiidiaa girls, it is well known, belong to certain Clinctaw families who refuse to emigrate with their tribe beyond the Missis- eippi, and yet linger upon the ahori inal hunting grounds, on the waters ofthc Pearl and the Pascogou it. Though the thus exhibit an unconqueruble attachment to their native soil, t ey have yet refused to adopt the habits, language or pursuits of the whites, b w they are surrounded, an arc pervcrsely indifferent to all the inducements of civilization. They rsist in lending it species of sevag: life—thc men sustaining themselves by ' ' il women y vending whortleberries and other w fruits in the sum- mer, pins in w . was i simple pro- ‘dactioas they visit Mobile semi-annually and for the time reside in the vicinity, in small hate or cam s constructed of bark, boards and limbs of trees. This has been their usage from time iinincino- rial and continues. These Indians are generally a miserable and ignorant race, but with all their de radation, they possess some of the virtues in a sin- ular degree. I! e women are proverbinlly chests and modest, and d'a.ll -the young girls iliat visit our city, none have can known to depart front the the of rectitude. A strong interest, therefore, eerrounds these augliters of the woods, who_rosist all the blan- ishinents of their station, and pass unharmed through the streets of our city. Many of them are quite handsome, and possess, be- neath their rustic gsrbs—t_he calico gown and the red b:inkct—con. eiderslilc graces of manner and appearance. As the invariably refuse to talk English, very little conversation can be lia with them, and that only in reference to the small bargains which the desire to make. Chiuiipir and picayurie are aliiioat the only wor s which they employ in their intercourse wit r inhabitants. Still they are not reserved in their movements, where they wish to make a bargain, and enter the different houses of the city, stores, dwel- lings and olliccs, without hesitation, ceremony or announcement. V Who has not been startled many it iiiorniiig, by the low voice, at the chamber door, exclaiiniiig, Chumpis. 'I‘ho Stoie-il demeanor of these Choctaw maidens has ol'len led to the impression, that they are destitute oftlie natural sensibilities and sentiments of their sex. 'l‘hey have bright flusliing eyes, well developed, syiiiiiietrical and flexible forins, beautiful riiiiall ltands and feet, riud show, in tlioir love for brilliant articles of dress, rings, beads and other personal orniiments, the taste and vanity of their civilised sisters-—is it possible, that they are destitute of those de- licate sympathies and tender alI'eciious which have marked women in all other classes and canditioiis of life? This question has no doubt, suggested itself to many, as an interesting problem of cha- racter. In one instance, at le:ist, iin atteinpi—pi-rltaps rt heartless one-—-was made to solve it, and it is to that story which I have to tell refors. It came to my knowledge in all its details, but I will attempt to narrate it in such a manner, as not to detain the reader with particulars, which he can iiiiagiiie for hiiiisclf. Among the Choctaw gipsies who visited Mobile in the winter of 840, was oneol unusual beauty and aitraciiveno.-as. Although scarcely developed into woiiiaiihood-—not more than seventeen ‘sens’ having kissed the rich bronze of her cheek—she was yet tall, roend-liistbed, straight and gruceful—n very model of feriiinine form. Her eatares, more prominent and re ular than is usual vvhh her tribe, were delicately sculptured. an the erect attitude ofbead, with her Is e fawn-lilie eyes, and abundant coal-black heir always neatly puited in massive folds, gave her up arniice an air ofsuperiority such as the youthful Poca ontas is sai to have . er ress was extremely neat, checked with a large number of silver and wnmpum ornaments. and lter small feet,which ll] of the fair promenaders on Dauphin-street might have envied, were lsveriably dressed in moccasins ornamented in the most fun- eifsl style, with many coloursil beads. As she walked about the streets of Mobile, arraved in this way. with her parcel of pine swung across her shoulders, she attracted the attention of all spec- tators for her beauty, althos h she would hold converse with none aoept la the words by wliic she endeavoured to dispose of her so. Mach interest was naturally felt in this young girl, and many eflrrts were made to learn something of her character and history. farther could be gleaned, (end this was told by Captain Billy, a drunken Choctaw, lkequsntl seen in garrulous moods in our mreets) the that she was the dang tar ofan Indian chief ofiiiuch Iete, who died many ears before. leaving her, an only child, with her mother. is their es is on the Pascagosls.

Though is motive was mainly curiosity, his purposes were not bsd.and he had no idea of doing any injury to the object of his experiment -by paying licr those attentions which he had found to euchain the admiration and win the love of more enlightened and accomplished maidens. He was a man of uncommon ersonal beauty, and sin- gular fascinating manners, and all these he brought to beer as well as he could, to sfiiict his innocent, and, as he thought, harmless flirtation. _It is needless to detail the arts resorted to by Henry Howard, to win the heart of the Fawn of Pascagoula. He began in the most modest and defereniial manner; he purchased from her, much more frequently than he needed, supplies of fuel, paid her larger sums than she asked, made her presents oftrinkets, ictures, and little ornaments of dress, and accoiiiiiiodated himsel in every way to her apparent wishes. These things, continued for sortie weeks, at last began to have obvious eflbcts. ' e I-‘awn tarried longer in her visit to his otlice than elsowliere; she always came there first and took no evident interest in his attentions. At length she began to answer his remarks in a few words of English as she could com- mand, and to look upon his handsome and fascinating countenance with pleasant smiles and earnest continued attention. The spell evidently be an to work! Henry Iloward understood the secrets of woinan’s cart; but here he had to deal with an untutored Indian girl, as timid as a bird, and whose springs of einoiion and sympathy could not be determined by the oidiiiary standards of feeling. Do not think, that I am depicting those subtile arts of fascination by which the rattlesnake lures and captivates the humming-bird. ' here was no purpose of evil in the heart of the young"attnrney. He was practising with a simple savage heart, those trio and ele- gancies of intercourse, which are recogiiiz as legitiinete in civi- lized societ . He wished to see if the same affections could be developed in the beaded beauty of the forest, as are to be fouiiif with the polished belle of the ball-room and the boudoir. The probabilites were, that the experiments would not succsed—-a ca- suist would tlicrofore tliiitk it harmless. Months had passed in this way, and Henry Howard at last dc. teriniiied to make a more obvious denionstrnlion of his love to the ‘awn of Prisca Olllll. One cold inoruing in February, just as he had finished his toilet, he heard a light step at his door, and a well- ltnown voice, as the speaker entered, playfully exclaiming, chum- pa, cliumpa .' Aria ed in her most beautiful dress, with a band of silvor,around hen , and long necklaces of beads falling from her graceful neck, the fawn stood before him. ie threw her ariiiful of pine upon the hearth. and looked sinilingly into his face. In his most graceful manner he approached her, and took her hand in his. Suddenly he circled her waist with his arm, and drawing her to him, imprinted upon her lips a long and fervent kiss. Modestly she looked into his face,ivitli a slight expression ol' surprise. but not dissatisfaction; and then he poured forth to her warm and urgent words of love. Neither were these coldly spoken, for the young and ardent admirer had been not a little interested in the object of his attentions. As he was about, however, to re at his kisses, the now startled Fawn, by a nick movement, uiiloosed herself fgom his eiiibriice, and glided across the room. ‘ Stand off, Mr. Howard,’ she exclaimed, in better English than he had ever heard her speak before. ‘ Me good friend to kind gea- tlcman—but no love! ‘ awn must marry her own people.

She was about to return wlion hearing him laughing and crowing in great glee, and thinking he must be safe, as long as he was so happy, eho remained a little longer where she was. Suddenly the little voice ceased, and after another niiriute‘s delay the young moilier stepped upon the rock and looked over, expecting to see her babe asleep : and instead of which, he was sitting perfectly motionless. his lips parted, and his wide open eyes fixed with a singular expression upon some ob- 'ect which at first site was unable to discern.

It is not, on the whole, matter ofserpriae tut young British North Americans, feeling the blood of thyjfi siwis vigorously pulsating in seine, should enlbert in sec an enterprise. The principal drawback is, that the stagnation of business in their native land renders such a step almost im- perative, ifthey would not sink down into a state of apathy and inglorious inactivity. Yet, we think It more than probable, even if Provincial prosperity in the various departments ofle- boiir were high. that seine of the sons of our soil would be at- tracted froin their liomesto the East, by the brilliant prospects of accumulating wealth, which the far-olfland presents. As it is, we can only wish them such a portion ofsuccess as will comport with securing the higlier interests of their soul’e wel- fare, anil which divine Providence may see best to award. Riches, in themselves, are desirable,only so far as they may be made instrumental in doing the greater amount of good. They cannot, indepcndeiitly of spiritual resources, render their poss- es; as happy. They are often asnarc, and so prove it curse and not a blessing. Wise and prudent are they, who, in seek- ing them, propose a godly aim, and when obtained, use lliem with referi-rice to the aiiditoftlie last day, when every man shall give an account of his stewardship.--We are not,liowever, intending to read a lengthy homily on the ‘use and abuse of wealth, but, we have penned these lines with the desire and hope, perarlveniure they should ineettlic eyes of any one who have embarked ‘fur the gold-regions, or of any who may be contemplating such a move, that they may lead to a strict ex- amihation of motives, and an honourable and christian course ‘ of coiiduct.—I’roi.-i'nci'al Wcslryan. :::_ I".ic1's ABOUT Ciii~:.iiii sun l\IlLK.——CfeIl'Il cannot rise through it great depth ofmilk.

The unlimited away which American fillies- men have heretofore enjoyed along our coasts left there little or nothing to ivish for, and when these] Colonies wished e reciprocity in some of their staple articles, they were treated with the utmost indifference. Our neighbours had so long trampled upon our privileges, that they imagined they had a perfect right to use our fishing grounds for their own benefit.
