The fbHawing interesting narrative was

>? Valley of Wyoming ?
After tho bul.lo mt'l mus?acrtf. described
in my las', most of ilio s-mlers fled. But
horn uod 11 lore a straggler returned from the
mountain of wilderness, nnj in tho course
ofthrao or four mouths, cabins were g ?ing
up over the ashes ot their former homes,
And quite a little neighborhood w.is collect*
ed. But the Indians kept prowling around
on tho mountains, now descending here and
now there, kil'ing this funvly, scalping thu
or making it captive. At u liitlo distance
from tho present Court, house ut Wilksbarre
lived a family by lite ttnme of Seficum,
upon wham tho visitations of tho Indians'
cruelties wery aw fully severe. Tho men
* were one day away in the fields, an I in un
ina'ao' the house was surrcun Jed by In*
bans. There was in it, tho mother* h
daughter about nino years of age, a son
?t??d thirteen, ^mother daughter aged five,
n:i 1 u li'ilo Uiy aged two and a half. A
young man, and a bov hv the name of
Ritigaley uvro present grinding a knife.?
The first tiling ilur Indians did was 'o shoot
do wit tlm young iniin mid scalp hirn with
t'.e knife w -oh ho ha I in his band. 1 he
nine year ?>! I sister look the liftlo boy I wo !
v??ira and a li ill'old, and ran out of the bank
door to g<-: to llio fori. Tim Indians chased
her justonmigli :o sou li* r flight, and having
a hearty I nigh iis n!m ran and clung lo
and lified her chubby l f.lu brother. Til >
then tonk tiio K.;ngs!ey hoy mi I young
fS^lucnin. iged thirteen, mid little Frunze*
age I live, mid prepared to depart. II d
finding voting .Scdocian I one, at lho earn1 s;
u roatii's of the nm her, they set hirn
down and !'ft him. Their captives were
then young lv:ng*ley and the It tic g rl.?
The inn tv r's h< ar: swelled unutershly, f
un I for years she could not describe 'ho I
sn >no without tears. She saw an iiul in |
throw Iter child over his shoulder, and as

I will not attempt to describe. Probably
the chilJren sa.v that all after life, lire heart
of the stricken mother wUs yearning for the
bale onowlioMj faie was So uncertain, and
whose fac*? ?hn could never sen again. i
As the boys grew up and became ni"n,
4e*y were very mix ous to know the th e j
at their Intle fair-haired s i?'er. Tin y
%vrote letters, they sent inquires, 1 ii< y inxd-*

mid that sixty years.
My render will now pnas over .r>S years
from the timo ofthii. captivity, and suppose
ii i in be if fur in the wilderness, in .he fur li* r.
est part of Indiana. A very respectable
agent of the Umtod States is travelling
there,tied weory and belated, wih a tired
horse, he slops at nti Indian Wigwam for
the night. lie can speak tin* Indian language.
The furri'ly are rich for Indians,
have horses and skins in abend nice. In
the course of the evening, b?? no ices that
the hair of the woman is light, nntl her
akin, under her dress, is uUo white. Tnis
led to a conversation. She told turn she
was a white child, but had been currx-d
away when a very smnll girl.
She could only remember that h -r nnmn
was Selocum, that she lived in a h tie house
on the banks of the Susqueliann i, and how
many tin re were in her htthor's family, an 1
the order of their ages ! But the name of
the town she could not remember. On
reaching bis home, the ogent mentioned
the story to bis mo her. She urg-'d him
to write und prnt the account. Accord.ng.
ly he wro e i', nnd sent it to Lancasti rof
this State, requesting that it m g'il be published.
By non e, to me, untrecoumuhle
l>!und< r, it lay in the office /w><? yrnrf before
I. was printed. But list summer it was
published. Ill M lisW days M fell illto III"
r r lituids of Mr. S. loeuin, of Wdkesbarre,
who was the little two and a half year old
boy, when L'ranees was tak? n. In a few
days b" was otT to seek Ins s:st r, taking
with him bis oldest sister, (.ho one who
u.tieo Htm to escape.; m-i wri ing 1o n liro'lior
who now lives i i Ohio, mid who I bo.
lieve was born after tho ciiptm y, to nwt'l
him ..nil go with him.
The two brother* and sister nro now
(1838,) on their wuy to seek little Fiances
just 9'xty yrars nfter her captivity. After
travelling 'euro than 3<>0 m.jcs throng ? the
wilderiirn they reached he lndt rri coun'ry
the home of the Miuini Indian. Nine m-les
from the nearest white, they hud ttm little
wigwam. "1 shall know my sister," s uJ
the civilized sister, "because she lost the
nuil of her first fing r. You brother hamered
it off in the blurksin.th shoj? when she
was four year old." They go into the cnbm
end find an Indian woman having the
op|>e.arnnce of seventy-five. She is painted
and jewelled off, and dressed like an Indian
in ull respects. Nothing hut her Iniir and
covered skin could indicate her origin.?
They get an interpreter and begin to converse.
She tells them where she was horn,
her name, dee., with the order of her fath*
er's family. "How came your nuil gone V
aid tho oldest sister. "My older brother
pounded it off when I .was a little child in
tba shop !" In a word, they were stttufmd
that this was Frances, their long lost sis'cr!
