dcrs of the country, it is presumed that this Is
the highest peak of the Rocky Mountains. The
day was sunny and bright, but slight shining
mist hung over the lower plains, which inter
fcrcd with our view of the surrounding coun-
try, On one side we overlooked inrumerable
lakes and streams, the spring Of the Colorado
of the Gulf of California; and on the other was
the Wind river valley, where were the heads
of the Yellowstone branch of the Missouri; far
to the north, we could Just discover the snowy
heads of the Tros Tetons, where the sources
of the Missouri and Columbia rivers, and at tke
southern extremity Of The ridge, the peaks wee
plainly visible, among which were some OF the
springs of the Nebraska or Platte river. ArcCnd
US, the " hole scene had one rain striking !ca-
ture, which was that of terrible convulSio~.-
Parallel to its length, the ridge was split into
ohasms and assures, between which rose the
shin lofty walls, terminated with slender ,nna-
refs and columns, which is correctly represent
ed in the view from the camp on island lake.
According to the barometer, the little crest OF
the wall on which we stood was three thousand

and two Thousand seven hundred aud eighty a.

afterwards obtained from a fixed position, ena-
bed US to locate the peak. The bearing of the
Trois Teton9 was north SO deg wes., and the
direction of the central ridge Of the Wind river
mountains 'couth 80 deg. cast. The summit
rock was gness, succeeded by scientific gneiss.
Sienite and feldspar succeeded in ocr descent to
the snow line, where we found a feldspathic
granite. 7 had remarked that the noise pro-
duced by tlse explosion of our pistols, had the
usual deg-ce Ct loudness, but was not in the
least prolonged, expiring almost instantaneous
ly. Having now made what observation our
means afforded, we proceeded to descend. We
had accomplished an object of lGudabe ambl-
ton, and beyond the strict ordercf our instruc-
tons. We had climbed the loftiest peak of the
Rocky Mountains, and looked down upon the
snow thousand feet below, and, standing
where never human foot had stood before, felt
the exultation of first explorers. 1t was about
two O'Clock when we left the summlt; and when
we reached the bottom, the sun had already
sunk behind the wall, and the day was drawing
to a close. 1t would have been pleasant to
have fingered here and on the summit longer;
but we hurried away as rapidly as the ground
would permit for it was an object to regain our
party as soon as possible, not knowing what
accident the next hour might bring forth

CUrE FOR EYDronnoBtA In the Senate O.
Pennsylvania in 1902, Il committee, to whom
had been referred communication from Vel.
entine Retiring, o. Lancaster, in relation 20
the cure Of the bite Of a mad dog, reported:---
That they bed conversation with Valen-
tine Retiring, on the subject Of his communi-
cation, and that he used the plant which is
commonly called red cheek reed, which, VIXEN
it is ripe or in blossom, he gathers and dries in
the shade, and, being pulverzed, he gives to a
grown person Z table spoon full in beer or wa
ter, drahm and IL scruple to a child, an equal
~ strong dose, but in three different propor-
tons; or 1t may also lee taken with bread coat
ed with butter honey or moasses. For an
animal, q large table spoon full, or in weight,
drahms and scrupIc. Ii the red cheek
weed is used green for animals, it may be cut
fine and mlEed with feed; if given to swine,
mix the pUlvcriZed plant with meal, and feed
it in small balls.
He assured rs that he has given it to per
sons who had been bitten several weeks, and
that he could net remember lhat it ever failed
to cure; and he never Tves more than one
dose, with exception to children, TO whom he
gives the same quantity III three different
doses. lie said further, that it is also an ex-
cellent cure for cuts or wounds. When the
plant Is green, he presses the juice into the
wound aud binds it with rag, the pressed
plant on it. The time TO sow the seed is IN
April, bot SHOULD be soWn very thin.
He Furthermore informed US that he is now
seventy-fve years old, was born in Germany
and emigrated with his parents to Pennsylva
MIA in his eleventh year; that his mothe
brought the,seed of this herb with her garden
seeds from her native country; that he gave ;
quantity of this herb and seed for the use o
the committee, and that he was willing to sup
ply others, if they applied to him.
Your committee is also informed by the
Rev. Henry Muhenberg, Of Lancaster, that
1t is an annual plant, which is known in Switz-
erland and Germany, by the common name Of
Brocklime; in England, Red PimperneI, and
in Latin, Anagalis Phenicia; that it should be
gathered in June, when in fall bloom. He
says, in Germany common dose ie thirty
grains, four tunes day, and to continue one
week, in small doses; the wound is washed
with water, in which the herb has been boiled
and afterwards some of the powdered herb put
into the wound; that the herb has been plant
cd in many gardens, and that it fourishes well
near Baltimore and Havre-dc- Grace.

.NeSsrS. E3;tOrS-Io GU will excuse one who
has not been in the habit Of writing for the
press, for any grammatical errors. should
not attemP, TO say any thing myself, but re-
main willing reader, if others more able
would step forward to advocate the CLAIMS of
native-born citizens. In reference to this sub
Ject, it seems as though this community is like
the drunkard who has thought over and over
again OF reformation, but has as often said to
himself, wei! IL Is no use now; it is all over
with me"-and like him we stand alOof, fear
tul to make an effort to redeem ourselves from
the chains which are fast forging for us, and
our children after u.s. Oh, that mechanics and
working men would open their eyes and shake
off partl2an feelings, that they would 90 to
work Tor themselves, and not for those who
are carelng nothing Tor them, only as stepping
stones TO get some fat office. Ii we look around
US, who are the leading men that oppose Ma
tive American principles; They are those " no
are looking to one or the other Of the present
political parties for Office; and men, too, re-
CARELESS of the welfare of the very men they
tlatter and puff up to get their votes. Stir
up, beseech you as one mai, altogether, and
let not our name as Americans become a re-
proach, as | heard a man who has always vot-
ed the democratic ticket say, a few days ago,
the foreigners, and even some of our own ma
tlve-born citizens, are trying to make the name
OF NATIVE reprOach to any one. | was a wit
ness to the departure of our gallant ship Her
man on last week, and it was a melancholy
fact, that IN consequence of there being so few
natlve-born citizens present, they could hardly
obtain three cheers for our gallant soldiers
There are numerous instances of dIctation on
the part of foreigners in our political matters
that are almost past belief. How many of us
can say that we vote for the good of our coun-
try at the present day? We suffer ourselves to
be led bhndfolded by designing men of both
parties. What is to become of mechanics in
the country, if we have some four or FIVE hun
dreG foreign mechanics and laborers weekly
added to what are already here' what is the
prospect for our children? Labor will of ne
cesslty be reduced down to the pauper labor of
European countries, if something is not done to
put stop to it; and whatever is to be done,
must be done soon or never; for even now, !
am told, the foreigners outnumber the native
born in many branches Of mechanism Then
rouse up, if you would receive the reward due
to you for labor as Americans, and let foreign
ers see that TO be called natives of this coun-
try Is no longer Stigma on our character.
