Uuring this long captivity, lie was considered tlm child of an Indian man and woman, by whom lie was adopted, and treated accordingly. He was allowed to hunt, and had at last conceded to him a'l the privileges of a warrior. He and a fellow prisoner, arranged a scheme to escape: the Indians suspected their purpose, and deprived them of their arms. In this situation they thought flight impossible: but when the warriors left their camps to hunt, the young captives deter mined to rr.a'ie one effort for freedom. They knew that an aged warrior, whose age exempted him from the toils of the diaise, had his camp in the neighborhood and that he had a good rifle and a plenty of ammunition. He hid assisted in kill ing Bratcher's father. It was decide! i rut they should visit his camp: he was rejoiced to see them: while he busied him self in preparing food for them, Bratcher seized his gun, shot him dead; his rifle, powder, and balls and dried meat, was obtained, and with this prize they com menced their return to the abodes of civil ized men. They were beyond the lakes Their flight occupied forty day, eight which were spent upon the iakes. he A TALE WITH A MORAL. Various and strange are the vicis situdes of trade now-a-days.

J lis next step was to cross the Gallinas with his men, with the avowed object of camping the two forces together as further proof of friend-hip.

About four, perhaps five years since Barton was going through a starring en. gagement at the Emanuel street theatre, iMobile, then under man igement of Lud low Ac Smith. At the time, Barton was suffering from an attack of asthma, which threw him into nervous irritability, and made him more thai ever feverishly anx ious about his pieces. In rehearsing YVm. Tell, he expressed himself particularly un easy about a tableau at the end ot the se cond act, where the guaidsof Gesler over powered the hero of the piece. Barton said he had been repeatedly annoyed by the bundling of awkward supernumeraries n this scene, and for once he insisted unon havimr the business well performed. Accordingly, in the evening lour stoui, athletic fellows were chosen from among the supernumeraries, and between the firs: and second acts they were Drougni. on uie stage for rehearsal. I hey were shown how to seize Mr. Barton at a certain mo ment, force him down on one knee, pinion his arms in a particular manner, and so from a lively and picturque grouping, up on which the curtain was to fall. The stupid follows grew excited and eager with these instructions, seemed as if they understood all they had to do, and pomis ed to perform every thing just as they were directed. The curtain rose, and the act went on. Barton spoke to the four men again at the wing, he getting more anxious ani nerv ous every moment. "Don't be afraid of me doit naturally, my good fellows seize mc as if you were four watchmen capturing a harrl-fighting rowdy eh! do you perceive?

The Dutchman escaped and got into a neighboring block house. Bratcher. in the night succeeding, was despatched as a Spy, or look out, for the Indians. He pursued the ridge running along the Kanahaw rive for three or four miles, and finding it was not so near day as he had supposed, he sat down on a spur running in towards the bend of the river. In a few moments he heard the report of a shot gun, the squeal of a hog and an In dian laugh: he knew he was in the neigh. borhood of the party for which he was seeking. He silently, and in Indian style, crept towards the place from which the sounds came, until he h .d a full view of the whole encampment. It was in a bend of the river hemmed in by the knobs and begining to believe that a large bank will be governed by the same principles with small banks that it will regulate them only in reference to its own in terest and that a large one is not bound by moral or legal bonds to have solely in view the good of the community, in any degree more than smaller banks aie bound to that end. "Who shall regulate the regulator," it is a question which is difficult to answer. Shall we propose the distruction of all banks? Philosophers in their clos ets may have supposed such a thing possible, may have argued that the community would have been better without banks. But t'ae banking sys tern seems to be the natural result ol the principles of trade and commerce and if a new empire were founded in some new land lor the express purpose of testing the principle of busmes with out banking, the-same strong current of trade which has broughlbanks into our community, would in all proba blity carry them there; circumstances which in their nature are uncontrol lable- can result only in useful insti- dly in 'crying" his mtions.

It will be saidr that by such a sys tem, the business of the community would be much diminished.less wealth would be accumulated fewer fortunes made. All of which ths writer ac knowledges to be true. Less Wealth would not be made, but wealth would be more equally distributed. Less work would not be done, only less buying and selling. The business of buying has increased out of all pro portion beyond that of creating proper ty out of tlie soil, or adding to it by- handiwork. We want more produ cers; we need not have so many to step in between the customer and the producer. Less business would indeed be done in the community, and we should all be the happier. Fewer failures would take place. 1 here would be lewer sleepless nights, and dinr.ers without appetites. The anxieties of life.those hurried distractions, which make a man a stranger in his own house, cold to the wife of his bosom and neglectful to caress his children, would be dimin ished. The poor would be fewer in number, for a thousand poor suffer where one rich man fails; and the , .1 I :k wciiange in tne currency, wm-u tum- pels the rich man to retrench in the sickening luxuries which crowd bista ble, diminishes also the little store of bread, by which the children of the poor are kept from famishing.
