An Indian of the Period. BV GEO. J. VAH.NET. Lo the poor Indian, whose untutored mind Sees God In clouds and hears him in the wind. Bryaut. The difference between the American savage of the colonial times and in the Indian of to-dav exist more in appeer ance than in reality, more in circum stances than in nature. I might occupy columns with anecdotes of the period of the Indian wars, showing the essen tial humanity of a large portion of even the seemingly blood-tbirsty aborigines, but this is not necessary to the purpose ol this article. At Passamaquoddy lakes, and more es pecially at Oldtown (the points where nearly all the small remainder of our abo rigines are gathered), they live in dwel lings quite equal to those of our Celtic squatters of the new railroad lines. Few of our poople are conversant with these places; yet the "gentle savage" is not an unfamiliar sight in our villages, with his bands full ot bows and arrows to tempt away the pennies of the boys, or an ir regular line of delicate baskets strucg oa his brawny arm, to win the quarters from children of a largr growth. The squaw, too, is en route, with light-colored baskets lo sell, or dirty bag lor what she can beg. Their primitive wigwam stands in some sheltered nook of the diminished forest, or wth the better sort, the more civilized canvas is spread in a locality more readily ac cssible to the desired visitors. The owners of the wood or field thus appropriated usually submit without much complaint to a brief sojourn, as tley generally stay only long enough to consume the waste fuel which abounds in most of our forests; but the proprietor ot the tracts which furnish the variety of ash tree used in basket-making docs not always sustain the visitation of the in dvstritru Indian trith so much equanim ity. The wandering red man still claims all be wishes by right of inheritance, and is rarely responsive to a demand for the quid pro quo. A lady friend of minen pursuit of the picturesque in nature and the nnique in humanity, during a recent winter pene trated the woods to a lodgeof these "West em Ishmaelites. The family was first beard of in the neighborhood in quarters at a country school bouse, then unused, which they had found insecurely fas tened. The time -was winter, and the season was nearly at its coldest. Ejected by the district authorities from this snug domicile, they soon found a sheltered spot in a thick wood, among the spruces and hemlocks, near a swamp in which were growing plenty of young ash-tree. The cabin" consisted of a simple frame of poles supporting baric and boughs closely interwoven, and against which the snow was piled deeply. For fuel, our gentle savage raided on a neighboring grove of bra, through which the hre bad already swept, leaving its traces in the blackened trunks and name-colored foliage. It was immediately after & very cold spell that my friend visited them. "Lady beie to-day ask if we cold last week," said the squaw. "Did you sufferf" "We most froze to death. Folks think we only Indians, not like other folks, and dont feel anything." In reply to a remark on the difficulty of going about ia the -woods in the deep snows, the Indian man replied. "Snow sot deep round here. I seen snow seven feet deeD at lHoate Head Lake." The sonaw added, probably unwilling that her native region should be outdone, "I seen it deeper than that where I came from down toward the provinces' Quoddy lakes, pernsps. The aanup continued, "I used to bunt moose at .Moose Head Lake, tramped long time over the deep snow on enow shoes." upon wincn tne squaw re- marked.coHteHiptuously, "All he good for, to tramp. "Great Ksny wolves about there," add ed the hunter, by way ol finishing up the sabjeet with a sensation. They bad lived in Oxford county, lived five years in Danville, bad a sou killed in the war of the rebellion, for whom they drew a pension frost the gov. eminent, bauaw sat back to ue me no iihiag a colored basket. Sanup was down on his knees kneading wheaten dough in abasia. It appeared ia be mixed only with water, and was kneaded very bard. "When it -was worked enough be laid it oa a piece of board, flattening it somewhat. rJanup asked, "itowyou knowwnerewe going to cook Itl" He beean to die out the asbes. "S'poee you think it get very dirty In there?"

It was wry bard and l.ioked pretty black. He scraped it nitli a knife. Squaw said site liked it cooked in that way ouce in a white. "Lidy came to our camp to stc us when we in York county she mi a real lady dte-sed rich we just c oking tin ad in this way. Mie n-ked for a Mice nf our brwid. I felt 'fended, fur I thought she making fun of my bread. But Mie still 'sistcd .-lie wanted a slice of that broad to eat. I gave it to her, and she eat it ail up right there and she was a real fine lady, too." Squaw asked sanup if he had made the tea. lie said he hadn't. "I've made the bread; you make the tea." "You agreed to get supper if I'd fiaish the basket; and so you must make tts..' Said he wouldn't; that be had made the bread and she might make the tea. She replied again no, he'd got to make the tea: Again he said hi wouldn't. She said she wouldn't. "You won't get ay, then." 4 1 going to have some 'fore I go to sleep, an you got to make because vou ssv you get supper. lie passed the newly-haked laf to his squaw; and, as sxa as bis back wa turned, she placed it behind ose of the lanre ttoaes that served te form their fire place. Soon, looking about, he asked her what she did with the bread "Oh. I put it away." "You put it do an in tbc dirtl" he asked, in a disgusted voice. "Da you s'pose I'd pat"it in the dirt! she asked, with imitation. Prettv soon, he looked at bis hands. and said. "There" I no wash my bands since I made the bread." "Did you wash them before yea made the bread P rridaed the squaw, with much quickness. He rcplieJ, angrily, Da yon suppose I'd make bread without washing my hands!" Her family pride now took the alarm and she apologetically remarked that she knew he washed his hands before be made the bread, for she saw him. Another visitor privately informed my friend that she, the day before, saw him wa-h his bands ia the same basis in which be to-day kneided the bread And thus ad iwiuwra. A Wedding Romance. The following was written the day be fore the marriage of Miss Uammsad to Marquis Lanza: Tue marriage of Miss Clara X. Ham mond, the only daughter of Dr. "Vm. A Hammond, ex-Sargeoa General of the United States, aad well kaewn as one of the levding member of the medical pro fession in this country, to the Marquis Manfredi Laaza di M era to Bianco, a member of a family which claims detceat not only from the noblest names in Italy, but from royalty itself, will take place at St. Thorn aa'cLurch to-morrow night. A great deal of interest is taken ia the oc cation, nut only because of the i eola tion and position of the bride's father, aad because of her own social popularity, but also because there is a touch of ro mance in the history of the bridegr3 which bat been somewhat talked of in society, aad which is so much more crcu i table to him than romancers always are to their heroes that it is worth while to make its details accurately known. The Marquis Manfrcdi Laaza, for rea sons which will presently appear, left his . . 1 r 1 T - . J . . . - C. Dome in iiaiv iur uio uaiicu uua uc years ago. On reaching 2ew York be found himself absolutely without re sources. As he bad received a first-class military education and bad served in the Italian 'army, he fancied he oould eatily procure aa appointment as engineer ia the military or civil service. He toon learned bis mistake, and thcreupoa looked about him for any honest means of caraiag his livelihood without calling on bis relatives. A few weeks after the arrival of the Marquis in this country, Mrs. Howard Crosby, the wife of the respected Chan cellor'of New York University, dining at Delmoaico'a, up town, was to much at tracted by the singularly well-bred man ner and bearing ol one ol the waiters that she induced the gentlemen of the party to make inquiries, which finally elicited his name and something of his history. This wa the young ilarqni Manfrtdi Lanza, and Mrs. Crosby, after satisfying herself that be was exactly what be represented himself to be, made an etiort to secure uim some employment more befitting his education and capac ity. She procured for him a note of in troduction to Mr. Schlesingcr. the Amer ican partner in the firm or arburg & Co silk importers. "What caa I do with your asked Mr. Schlesingcr, measuring curiously with a glance the slight but self-possessed figure which stood before him. "What can you do!" continued the merchant, and, then, after a pause, "can yoa write? Let me see a specimen of your hand-writing!" The applicant wrote a few words in an angular, scrawling hand, which would be admirable in an autograpa oook, ouiwas perfectly horrible in the eyes of the im porter. "That would never do," said he, shaking his bead. "But I can learn fo write in any hand vou want, if you will cive me a little time." said the voune iUlian. "Do you think you can! If you do, I will give you a chance. But as you arc, you would only be in my way," was Mr. Schleainger's kindly, but not very encour aging answer. So, on probation, the young applicant was taken into tbn bouse and iriven sundry incidental pieces of work. The very next night he entered himself at one of the business colleges in the city, and began with all hiB might to study penmanship aud bookkeeping. After a few weeks he astonished his em ployer jwith a document written out in a fine, round, "business-like" hat d. From the foothold first granted bim at an in finitesimal salary the young 3Iarquii after this adtanccd by speedy successive pro motions until be was finally put in charge of the entire forcigo correspondence of the firm. lie rapidly developed into a thorough business man, and a skillful accountant, uatil Mr. Scblesinger found hlmwlf compelled to acknowledge that his business talents, considering the sh rt time lie had hnd to tc?t them aud acquire buiarsi pntc'iee, was really wonderful. lit knowledge of the honoralde origin and the fqaally honorable career nf his etnploje as a soldier tioth in the Italian and Austrian armtes led Mr. bcblestager to trt-ftt him finally as an intimate friend and to make him a frcottcat truest at his houx. lite Marquis was now oantiftg a cemetent salary, and readily made tor himself a pleasant positi n ia the be t society of Xew York. Meanwhile his gratitude to Mrs. Crby made him a fre quent visiter at her residoace, aad thwc it was that he firt met the youag lady who to-mono evening is to become his witc.
