I know the 55th, and believe it to be a brave regiment; though I rather incline to the 60th as my favorite, and to the Delawares more than to either; but what would you have, Quartermaster? It must be a pressing errand that brings you under the loops of a blockhouse at this hour of the night, with the sartainty of Killdeer being inside of it."
Waal; to- morrow will bring about a knowledge of the name of the captain's companion, and then a body may calcilate with greater sartainty!" This is but an outline of what passed through Joel's mind as he moved onward.
"Hogs or dogs," said I, "whole, with their heads on do you mean that?" "Yes, Massa, dis here child do, of a sartainty." "Hogs like the pig, and dogs like the Newfoundlander at the door?" "Oh, no, Massa, in course it don't stand to argument ob reason it was. Oh, no, it was quadogs and quahogs clams, you know. We calls 'em down South, for shortness, hogs and dogs.
"Figgers won't lie," said Elder Hankins, the Millerite preacher. "I say figgers won't lie. When a Methodis' talks about fallin' from grace he has to argy the pint. And argyments can't be depended 'pon. And when a Prisbyterian talks about parseverance he haint got the absolute sartainty on his side.
"Seein' is believin', of a sartainty; ahs! me and some of us may see these things sooner than we thought. I comprehind your meanin' about Tamenund's father, Sarpent, and the idee's a close idee. Tamenund is now an elderly man, say eighty every day of it, and his father was scalped, and tormented, and burnt, when the present prophet was a youngster.
I tell you what, when the crop went to town, the old 'squire must have had a mighty smart chance to pay; for, whatever people might say of old Eben, he knew how to calculate from your pocket into his with monstrous sartainty.

With such splendid chances for experimentin', what first-chop mills they must have, to a sartainty.
There's Chingachgook, now, though far from being parfect sartainty, with a rifle for few red-skins ever get to be that though far from being parfect sartainty, he is respectable, and is coming on. Nevertheless, he is my fri'nd, and all the better fri'nd, perhaps, because there never can be any hard feelin's atween us, touchin' our gifts, his'n bein' red, and mine bein' altogether white.
In the last case, I shall have my trouble for nothing." "What t'other do?" demanded Elksfoot, with very obvious curiosity. "Sure enough; the other gentleman must be nearly ready for a start, and we'll see what road HE travels. 'Tis always an assistance to a bee-hunter to get one creature fairly off, as it helps him to line the next with greater sartainty."
One young fellow in a green box coat, addressed himself to these dumplings in a most direful manner. "My boy," said the landlord, "you'll have the nightmare to a dead sartainty." "Landlord," I whispered, "that aint the harpooneer is it?" "Oh, no," said he, looking a sort of diabolically funny, "the harpooneer is a dark complexioned chap.
