FaoA FoRr ArKINsos.-We have accounts
from Fort Atkinson, on the road to New Mexico,
TO the Atm of last month Serious difficulties were
then feared with the Indians, in consequence of
the murder OF a white man, and the refusal of the
Indians to give up the murderer. Over q hundred
lodges of the Cheyenne Indians were encamped
only few miles from the fort, and they had sent
message by a party of kiowas to the fort, that
the murderer would not be given up. In coose-
quenoe of this defiance, Lieutenant Heath in COM
maud of Fort AT kinson, was making his arrange
ments for an attack upon the Indians. This he
expected TO do about the l4th. The entire force
of effective men at Fort Atkinson was bout seven
ty five men; the number of Indians against whom
he would have to operate, some five six hundred
men.
The Indians are represented as not very peacea-
bly, inclined, and comb tons between the ebay
ennes, kiowas, Arrapahoes and Comapches, have
been attempted II ia recommended that SINAI II
parties should avoid making efforts to cross the
plains unless with escort. The comma nding
officers at Fort Leavenworth and at Fort Union
have been notified of the hostile disposition of the
Indians towards the whites.

SUIr AGAINST A LIS Insurance. CoMPANY.-For
several days past suit has been pending against
the secretary of the " United States Life Insurance
Company Of Philadelphia, before Chief Justice
Edmonds, of the Supreme Court of New York. 1t
appears the company obtained their charter in the
State of Pennsylvania, and through the secretary,
Charles G. Imiey, great portion of their business
is acted in the city of New York. in violation
Of the laws of our State, which require companies
chartered in other States to deposit securities to
the amount of 100 900 with the State Comptroller.
Thursday the jury rendered verdict for the full
amount against the secretary of the above COM
pany. District Attorney Blunt conducted the
the part of the people, and that officer has
still several additional suits for the same violation
to bring against the same company, with penalties
of a 500 attached to each case.-4dlbany Rsgister.

Report of the Committee.

The undersigned, members of the Com
mittee appointed to attend the examination
of R0rard High School, which came off on
the 20tA-2lst-22nd and 23rd Of this month,
would make the following brief statement as
the result of their close attention and criti-
cal examination for Tie four days.
lst, The examination was impartial and
as thorough as the thing would permit, the
committee selecting, adHbarut the chap,cr
and paragraph in the languages, the pro.
position or theorem in mathematics and the
subject or chapter in the various branches
Of Philosophy, Sc.
End, The proficiency Of the classes, a
few only excepted was not only satisfacto-
ry' but highly gratifying evincing not SUI
perticial, but thorough acquaintance with
the general subject as well as 4 clear per-
ception Of the more intricate parts and alb
struse principles.
3rd, The composition and defamation
were good, sometimes cc'y good, showing
a fertility of language, and grace Of manner
full of bright promise.
ith, The exhibitions Of vocal and instru-
menta! music were not only reputable but
often very superior. And taking the ex-
ercises all together it must lie admitted that
the pupils acquitted themselves with grea,
credit TO themselves, their instructors and
the institution
The high character Of the Howard High
School has been SO long aad so firmly es-
tablished and its distinguished reputation
widely spread that any attempt upon our
part to add to lis praise, would be cousid,
cred "behind the times TO appreciate its
eNcellencies we must see and hear, what
has so much gratiied Us for the last few
days. We could say much in praise of all
the faculty and teahcers, but they need not
our commendation TO ensure the confidence
and patronage of the public, as the number
Of pupils of the sesslon irst closed clearly
shows J. BELprS,

Howard High School.
For the Times.

The past week has been one of unusual
interest and animation in Fayette, OCCASION
ed by the annual examination alI attend
ant exercises Of this very popular school.
Many persons from distance, as well as
the citizens Of the town and surrounding
country, were attracted to the College-dav
after day and night after night, to witness
exhibitions Of Intellectual progress as tie
young gentlemen and ladies' contended for
superiority in the various br ranches Of Aca-
demic study.
On Sunday the 18th inst. the annual SER
mon was delivered by DR.. G. S. Savage
The subject was appropriate moral culture
Train up child in the way it should go,
&c." Prov. 32--6, and it was treated in
that perspicuons, forcible and interesting
manner SO peculiar to Dr. Savage.
On Monday the classes of the primary
department were examined when bright
faces, sparkling eyes and ready answers,
made many parents heart swell with ioy,
in anticipation Of the rich fruit these earlv
blossoms promised. Tuesday, Wednesday
and part Of Thursday were occupied in
examination of the higher classes, there
might be seen the more mature countenan-
ces, calm and composed, indicating minds
conscious Of their strength, and familiar
with the subject about TO come up, and
when these were announced you might hear
the quick response, or see the same propo-
sition, or problem, or tleorum traced on the
blackboard with ready hands guided by
steady minds which seemed 10 see the end
from the beginning. On the nights Of Tues
day and Wednesday the audience, filling
the large chapel to overiiowing, were high
y entertained until late hour, by speeches
selected and original. from the young men,
and written usages from the young ladies,
manlIesting remarkable maturity of thought,
felicity of expression and grace of manner.
The exercises throughout were en,iycned
by alternate exhibitions of music on the
Plano-torte, accompanied by the melodious
tones OF the sweet voices of the fair ones,
which greatly heightened the interest and
pleasure of the occasion, we heard no mean
Judge spontaneously exclaim as one of these
captivating strains died amay on his ravish-
ed ears, "rdy she ,ciH make Jenny Lind"
/ On Thursday at eleven, DIR. Boyle, of
Lexington delivered the annual address,
which occupied about two hours, It was re-
plete with sublime ideas and beauty and
elegance of style, rarely equaled. After
which the Rev. w. T. Lucky, the principal
presented diploma to Miss NJ. Sears, in a
short but appropriate and touching address,
and thus closed the exercises of an occa-
sion which will long be cherished as one of
the brightest spots on the tablets of me-
mory. R.G.L.
