OK! WOULD 1 WERE A BOY AGAIN.
Oh, would I were a boy again
When life seemed formed of sunny years,
And all the heart then knew of pain,
Was wept away in transient tears.
When every tale hope whispered then,
My fancy deemed was only truth;
Oh, would that I could know again.
The happy visions of my youth.
'T were vain to mourn that years have
shown
How false these fairy visions were,
Or murmur that mineeyes have known
The burthen of a fleeting tear;
But still the heart will fondly cling,
To hopes no longer prized as truth ;
And memory still delights to bring
The happy visions of my youth.
(Pine Torch) a young chief who, like
herself, aorvived hi» tribe and had
sought a home among the Cherokees.
He approached her with deferrence,
and told her that a pale face, w ho came
far over the blue waters, and who was
very skilful in the cure of diseases,
once lived among his people. He
said the big doctor—for so they called
him—was somewhere among the neigh
boring mountains, and earnestly en
treated permission to go in search of
him. WiRR a grateful look, Naucoo-
chee bade him go.
Chestatee flew upon his mission like
an arrow loosened from th^ow, while
the maiden, inspired with hope and
confidence, resumed her vigils at her
mother’s cot. With impatient longings
she marked the tardy hours, and her
heart bounded with when the apund
of coming feet announced die return
of the chief, who soon, appeared, lea
ding in a venerable Spaniard. The
old man approached the couch, and
gazed long and earnestly upon the
shrunken features of the almost dying
woman. He then turned to Naucoo-
chee, and with a look of benevolent
sympathy, assured her that he could
restore her mother. He gathered some
roots from the bank of the Chattahoo
chee, of which he prepared a tea
which speedily relieved her; under his
treatment, and the care of the maiden,
the invalid was soon entirely restored
to health.
Nothing could exceed their gratitude mistakable evidence
to the Spaniard, and so remarkable fhc impress of feet
was the cure that the old chiefs be- y ar d- The company
sought him to dwell among them. He , lected, and started in pursuit They
consented to do so, and became die traced him r^ulily to the mountain,
instructor of Naucoochee. He taught hut fairly upon it they became greatly
yat by whom or when erected, tradi
tion is silent. Water runs down Ks
sides in seyMll places, and looks in
the sunshine like broad belts of silver.
Near the top is a huge rock, supposed
to weigh over a hundred tons, which is
so delicately poised that it seems the
strength of a single person were suf
ficient to hurl it down from the fearful
abyss.
The view from here is exceedingly
beautiful and extended. Here and
there you observe a small settlement
nestling lovingly among the mountain
peaks around it, while the river—which
you can trace an immense distance—
the distant Blue Ridge, and the quiet
vale below, fill up the picture. I could
scarcely refrain from repeating those
beautiful lines of Coleridge upon the
vale of Chamouni, as 1 gazed upon the
scene. This mountain is a favorite re
sort Parties of pleasure from some
quarter visit it almost daily. It was once
infested with bears—hence its name—
and a few are still found there. A
great hunt came off there a short time
before my visit, in which more than
fifty persons were engaged. It seems
that several dwellers ahout the base of
the mountain had missed from their en
closures a number of infants of the
porcupine genius, and various were
their surmises as to the cause. Some
suggested that the “ gentleman in
black” had entered into the swine, and
sure enough one moist morning un-
was afforded in
about the fann-
»oon col-
me, gentlemen, to recommend their ex
ample as worthy of imitation.

A SUIflER IN GEORGIA.
NAUCOOCUE ITS ENVIRONS AND TRA-
DITION8.
Few portions of our country present
stronger attractions to the tom i-t than
Upper Georgia. In variety and beau
ty of scenery, it has no superior. But
recently the home of the most civilized
and poetical of the Indian tribes, al
most every mountain, valley, and
streamlet has its tradition, and at ev
ery step the stranger seems treading
upon classic ground. Among the ma
ny interesting localities which he visit
ed, tho writer remembers none that af
forded him more pleasure than the
vale of Naucoochee. It is situated in
Habersham eounty, a short distance
from Clarksville, and is altogether one
of the lovelies! prospects upon which
the eye ever rested. The valley pro
per is about eight miles in length, and
it varies from one to three miles
in length, and from one to three
miles in breadth. The Chattahoochee,
or Crooked river, winds gracefully
through it; at this place it is so nar
row that a squirrel might leap across
it, whik it is environed with mountains
of rare beauty. Entering it from the
west, the attention is arrested by the
bald head of tho lofty Yotiah, or Bear
Mountain, on tho right; while the still
her the musical language of old Cas
tile, and gradually opened to her view
the mysteries of the healing art. The
skill she rapidly acquired, added to her
native goodness and quick apprehen
sion rendered her the idol of her adopt
ed tribe, and often did her interpreta
tion rescue the unfortunate prisoner
from the jaws of death.
Especially did she exert herself in
behalf of the whites. Soon, however,
she had to mourn the death of the old
Spaniard, and not long after that of
her mother. Chestatee had long been
enamored with the young maiden, and
now that her mother and instructor
were gone, he sought to relieve her dis- { have baJ lls (Uv in

FIRESIDE SCENE.
A Little Boy and his Father.—
Boy. I don’t wish to go to school any
more this week. I don’t think 1 can
stand it
Father. Why? Is my little boy
sick?
Boy. No sir—not quite sick—hut
bore from thence upon its wings, ma
ny a vow of fidelity and truth. It
could not be expected that the aspirant
for such a prize would be long without
a rival. A young Indian of ignoble
descent dared to cast his eye upon the
peerless maiden. Nothing could ex
ceed his rage and jealousy, when he
learned that Chestatee was favored
above him. The darker passions of
tho Indian raged fearfully in his bo
som, and he muttered deeply of re
venge. Learning of their visit to the
mound, he armed himself with a large
hunting knife, and hid in ambush near
the favored resort of tho lovers. Soon
ho heard the sound of approaching
footsteps, and behold the happy pair
seated upon th<MVl|ssy carpet Bound-
Boy. The blood tlies into my head,
and 1 feel red in tho face, and my
knees feel weak.
Father. Is it so? And does the
teacher nothing to cure them ?
Boy. Oh ! he tries to cure me, jmt
he only makes me worse.
Father. What remedy does he use?
Boy. Birch and mahogany—puts
’em on snug, just below the waistbands
of my trowsers.
Father. Monstrous! does he flog
you when you have those bad spells ?
Boy. Yes, sir, he does—and he
brings on all these had spells himself.
Father. Worse and worse! How
does he bring them on ?
Boy. {Edging towards the door.]
Why sir—he puts out—such big, long,
crooked words, I—can’t spell ’em!

it ruimutkglilcr this wise : Many, ma
ny iuu4HP*t ro > there came to the camp
of thif^Iierokees, a young Indian mai-
£ of unequalled excellence, accom-
ied by her aged mother. Of a once
jo and powerful tribe, they were
now the last representatives, and they
asked to be received into the tribe of
the Cherokees. Their request was
granted. Bo beautiful and amiable
was the maiden that she soon became
the favorite of her new tribe. She
waa beautiful as the day-dawn, and
witlial was so kind and gentle, that
they called her Nnucouehee, or The
* Evening Star. Noi long after her
adoption, her mother waa taken severe

Naucoochee keep vigil over her help-
leas parent Scarcely an instant could
she Ife persuaded from the lowly couch,
and as day after day her mother grew
worse and worse, and the hone of her
recovery became fainter and fainter,
her agony was almost insup|K>rtahle.
As if determined that she should
not die, Naucoochee flew to the wig
wam of the chief, and elasping her
kneee, with tears besought him to save
her mother. The old man beheld her
with deep emotion, but with a aolem
shake of the head signified that noth
ing could be done. With despair de
tected apdU every feature, she turned
away. As she did so, hareye# met

pressed him to the earth. Planting a
knee upon the breast of Chestntt'c, the
infuriated savage drew his glittering

her lover, and received the deadly blow.
Her fair face became distorted with
agony, and her raven locks discolored
with the crimson tide. With one look
of unutterable affection, her pure soul
ascended to the land of the Great n
Spirit, and was soon joined by Uiat of, tw ,n . v

Tli3 savage flefl, but was soon over
taken and sacrifided with the most fear
ful tortures. The lovers were buried
in one grave upon the mound, and a
lofty pine now marks their quiet rest
ing place. The mound became an ob
ject of veneration to the Indians, and
in memory of their favorite, they call
ed it the valley of Naucoochee, after
her name.
Considerable gold has been found in
the vicinity of Naucoochee, and in mi
ning some important discoveries have
been made. In the spring of 1849, a
company of miners, not far distant,
found a native village several feet be
low the earth’s surface. There were
sixteen houses in a row, in a good
state of preservation, containing vari
ous articles of furniture. Cookin,
utensils of all kinds, and a cousidei
ble quantity of hollow ware were
ken out, but when exposed to the a|>
mosphere, many of the articles fell to
pieces. Mount Youah is worthy of no
tice. At some points, the view of it
is beautiful beyond deagription. The
dome-like crest of the mountain, rear
