We can aecus to almoot anything, and it was not long before our captive contemplated the dead bodiee with which he was surrounded* with about the same indifference as he did the walls of tht temple that encompassed them. How long after Ortia had been placed to guard tha templa of saeriflces the following foarf^l midnight adventure hap> pened, we have no means of slating with certamty, nor ia H very material ; it is, however, accord{n|r to his ow« account, aa follows t A younff Indian had been killed and his body piaead in this temple. Late nna night, Ortii found it closely inveetad by wolves, which, in spite nr all hia eflbrts, entered tha plaaa, and carried away the body of tha Indian. Tha fHght and tht darknesa ware so heavy upon Ortii that he knew not that iht body was missinff until morning. It araaars, howavar, t'dit ha recovered himself, sailed a heavy cudaal, whieh ha had pra> pared at hand, and commenced a ganafai attack upon tho hsaaH tn tha temple, and not only drove them aut, but parauod tha« a good way from tho pkuso. In tho parmiit ha cama «p wkh ana which ha cava a mortal Mow, althaugh ho did aat kWw k al tha time. Having returned dram thia haaatdoua advaMMi to tho temple, he impatiently awaited tha ratan af daylighl. Whan tha day dawned, great waa hia distraaa at tha dlaae^iy of tho loas of the bodv of tha dead Indian, which waa aapacially aggravaiad, bacaaaa It waa tha aon of a great chief.

Having travelled all night as fast as he could, Ortii found himaelf neit morning upon the borders of the rirer which bounded the territories of the two rival chiefs. He waa BOW thrown into great trouble, for he could not proceed larther without dieeovary, two of Mocoso's men being then flshinff ia tha rivar i and, although he came as a fViend, vet ha had no way to maka that known to them, not understanding their tan* Maga, nor having means wherewith to discover his character Sf • aiffn* At length ha obaervad their arms, which they had kft at conaidarabla distance from the place where they than wwo.

And here again, the enow which had been her covering upon the cold ground, to her great diacomforl, was now her only hope, for slie could juat dltcem by it the trace of tho Indiana ! How long it waa before she overtook them k not told us, but she joined them and continued her captivity.

Om oromng much fuel was prepareo between two kws, which they told her waa for her torture. A miriity fire being made, b«r maater called her to him, and told oer that she should K rally be burnt alive.

She was kindly used there until Sir WilUain Phipo, lying before Quebec, did, upon exchange of prisonere, obtain her li» arty.

The powder flask hap> pening to fall into the fire, eiplmled, blowing up the wolverene, and aealtering the wigwam in all directions. At length he found the creature, blind from the blast, wandering baekwaid and forward, and he had the satisfaction of kicking and beal> ibg him about !

Immediately on my approach they rushed on me like tigers, and insUntlj disarmed me. Having me thus in their power, they bound ma to a tree, went into the house, plundered it of every thing they could carry oflT, and then set fire to it, and consumed what waa left before mv eyes. Not satisfied with this, they set fire to my bam, stable, and out-houses, wherein were about two hun- dred bushels of wheat, six cows, four horses, and five sheep, all which were consumed to ashee. Having thus finished the execrable busineee about whiek they came, one of the monsters came to me with a tomahaark and threatened me with the worst of deaths if I would net ga with them. This I agreed to, and then they untied me, aad Rn* 7*i.^ '*^ ^ ^"7' **"<'*<^ "^^^^ ' travelled all that nifkt, U of the moot terrible apprehensions, lest my unhapaywUb dbould likowiee have fallen into their cruel power. At daaapr break my infernal masters ordered roe to ky down my laadT when, tying my hands again round a tree, they forced the Uood out at mv fingers' ends. And then kindling a fira near tha tree to which 1 was bound, the meet dreadful agonies eeiaed me, concluding I was jjfoing to be made a sacrifice to their barbarity. Tha fire being made, they for soma time danced round me after their manner, whooping, hollowing and ahriok* in^ in a frij^tful manner. Being satisfied with this eort of nirth, they proceeded in another manner : taking the baminf eoals. and sticks flaming with fire at the ends, holding th«a ta my bea, head, hands, and feet, and at the same tbna threaten* lag to bum ma entirely if I cried out. Thus tortnrad as I waa, almoet to death, I suffered their bratalitiee, without beiiTg at* towed to vent ray anguish otherwise than by shedding silent tears; and thaea being obeerved, they took freeh eaala aad applaad them near my eyes, telling me my face was wet, and uat thay would dry it for me, which indeed they craally did. How I nnderwaat ttieea tortures has been matter of wonder ta BM, hat Ood enabled me to wait with mora than conunoa patianea for tha delivaranoe I daily prayed for. At Ingth thay sat down round the fire, and roaated the maiL . of wUah they had tabbed my dwelling.

I icised the oppoitunity, and haetened away to Join another pariv of Engliih troopi that were yet unbroken, and ttood in a body at tome distance. But before I had taken many steps, I hastily cast my eye towards the gentleman, and saw the Indian's tomahawk gash into his back, and heard him utter his last groan. This added both to my sp-jed and desperation. I bad left this snocking scene but a few yards, when a fine boy about twelve years oi nge, that had hitherto escaped, came up to me, and begged that 1 would let hiro lay hold of me, so that he might stand some chance of setting out of the hands of the savages. I told him that I would ^ve him every assis- tance in my power, and to this purpose bid him lay hold ; but in a few momenta he was torn from mv side, and by his shrieks I Judge was toon demolished. I could not help forgetting mv own cares for a minute, to lament the fate of so young a aui« ftrer ; but it was utterly impoasible for me to take any methoda to prevent it. ' I now got once more into the midst of (Viend Sat we were anable to aflbrd each other any succor. As thia was the divi- sion that had advanced the furthest from the fort, I thought there might be a possibility (though but a bare one) of my forcing my way through the outer ranks of the Indians, and getting to a neig[hboring wood, which I perceived at some dis- tance. I was still encouraged to hope by the almost miraculous preservation I had already experienced. Nor were my hopes in vain, or the eflTorts I made ineffectual. Suffice to say, that I reached the wood ; but by the time I hhd penetrated a little way into it, my breath was so exhausted that I threw myself into a break, and lay for some minuUsa apparently at the last gasp. At length I recovered the power or respiration ; but my anprebensiona returned with all tiieir former force, when I saw several savages pass by, probably in pursuit of me, at no very great distance. In this situation I Knew not whether it was better to proceed, or endeavor to con- oaal myself where I lay till night came on ; fearing, however, that they would retu/n the same way, I thought it most prudent to get nirther from the dreadful scene of my distresses. Ac- cordingly, striking into another part of the wood, I hastened on as last as the briera and the lots of one of my shoes would Crroit me ; and aftet- a slow progress of some hoars, fained a yi that omlooktd ths phos wluch I had jiut left, from whanc* .'MM BBi iMi ♦.#,.

But not to tire my readers, I shall only add, that after pM»« ing three days without subsistence, and enduring the severity of the cold drws for three nights, t at length reached fort Ed* • ward; where with proper care my body soon recovered it* wonted strength, and my mind, as far an thu recollection of th« late melancholy events would permit, its UMual composure. It was computed that fifteen hundred person* were killed or made prisoners by these savages during this fatal day. Manr of the latter were carried off oy them and never returned. A few, through favorable accidents, found their way back to their native country, af^r having experienced a long and severt captivity. The brave Col. Monro had hastened away, soon after th« confusion began, to the French camp, to endeavor to procure the guard agreed by the stipulation ; but his application pror* ing inefliK'tual, he remained there till General Webb sent % Birty of troops to demand and protect him back to fort Edward, ut these unhappy concurrences, which would probably havt been prevented ud he been loft to pursue his own plana, toMther with tho lots of so many brave fellows, murdered ia cold blood, to whose valor he had been so lately a witnooa, made such an impression on bis mind tluat he did nrt lone survive. He died in about thrte months of a broken heart, ana with truth might it bo said that ho was an honor to his coun- try. I mean not to point out the following cireumst^nce as th* immediate judgment of heaven, and intended as an atonement for this slaughter : but I cannot omit that very few of thoe« different tribes of Indians that shared in it ever lived to retvm home. The small-poz, by means of their communication with ^ the Europeans, found its way among them, and made an eanal havoc to what they themselves hod done. The methods tney pursued on the first attack of that malignant disorder,, to idiete the fever attending it, rendered it fatal Whilst their blood was in %iatate of fermentation, and nature was striving to throiw out the peccant matter, they checked her operations oy p]ung<> ing into the wMr; the consequence was that they died 1^ hundreds. ^ The |»w that survived were transformed by it into hideous objects, and bore with them to the grave deep mdented marks of Ous much dreaded disease. ^ Monaienr Montcalm fell soon after on the pkiins of Quebec. That the unprovoked cruelty of this commander was not apprared of by the generality of his countrrmen, I have since Men eooyinced of by auiny proofs.
