Indian snnlmer Morning.


BY PARk BEFJANiY.
A smoke from Thousand wigwams tells
The Indian summer; soft aud calm the air
Swings like heavy curtain in the glare
or the new risen sun, whose fever quells
The fr osts Of Autumn,by whose wondrous spells
Green woods have been transmitted into red,
Brown, golden iints, az beautiful as shells,
Stolen from the oceau's silver sandcd bed.
A lengud dreamy, deep delicious haze,
Thro' which the noareet objects mellowrd
seem, [gleam
Hides the blue distance, while the meadows
Az with tie haryests of the yellow maizs
'Tis the reiurn of Summer, brief aud bright,
Ills last warm sigh and smile Of love and light.

Advices from Vera Cruz to the 22d inst,
and the city Of Mexico to the Goth, have
heen received by the way of New Orleans.
There is nothing reliable relative TO the in
surrection under Alvarez, although it was
the impression among many that it would
yet prove successful. Count Raousset de
Boulbon, whose capture at the head of an
insurgent force, before announced, had been
sentenced TO be shot on the 18th inst, with
several other French officers. In Durango,
the government forces had obtained mo-
mentary check over the Indians, but they
appeared in other portions Of the country,
causing great alarm and the flight of many
OF the inhabitants. 1t is reported that dis
content and revolution were increasing to an
alarming extent. The crops in nearly half
the States were a complete failure, and a
large number Of deaths occurred at Chihua-
hua and other places from actual starvation.
The cholera and fever had pretty nearly dis
appeared.

SOFA SPRINGS IN THE DEsERT.-The Alta
California says: "The party engaged in the
survey of public lands, under Mr.. Pool,
found, at point about fifty miles east of
San Felipe, in San Diego county, singular
collection of fountains or springs of soda
water, situated in a sandy plain or depres-
sion of the surface of the desert. The spring
IS mound of symmetrical shape, tapering
like sugarloaf, in the center of the top of
which is a hole, unfathomable, containing
the carbonated beverage fresh from some
natural laboratory below. Some of these
mounds are six feet high, and clothed with a
luxuriant coat of grass, while Others are
shaped like an inverted bowl, and fringed by
a growth of cane. The water is described
as having the same sparkling and effervescing
quality as that ordinarily sold by apotheca-
ries, and was drank with avidity by both
men and animals belonging to the porty.-
When impregnated with acid of any kind, it
produced instant effervescence, and in that
form is peculiarly refreshing as a drink
Some of it has been brought in in order to
be chemically tested, with view to make
she discovery Of some practical utility"

THE BABIES OF EGYPT.-W. G. Bryant,
in writing from Euv nt saws.

THE BABIES OF EGYPT.-W. C. Bryant,
in writing from Egypt says:
Among them were women in blue cotton
gowns bare footed with infants perched on
their shoulders. This is the way in which
the Arab mothers of the laboring class in
Egypt carry their children; as soon as the
little creatures get the voluntary use of their
limbs, they are transferred from the arms to
the shoulder. have seen instances of this
custom which would supply striking SUBJ
jects for the pencil. At old Cairo, the other
day, Contic woman. in the loose blue dress
of the country, bare-footed, her face unveil-
ed. with symmetrical features. silent and sad
looking, opened to us the door of the old
worm-eaten church, in which is the little
grotto, where the Holy Virgin with her child
is said to have eluded the pursuit of Herod.
On the womans shoulders sat an infant of
seven or eight months, with we'll burned
brown cheeks and long dark eye lashes, its
head bowed upon hers, and one little hand
pressed against her forehead, while the other
arm passed around the back of the neck.-
The Egyptian mothers treat their children
with great tenderness, and though see in
fants everywhere, do not know that have
yet heard one of them cry. The expression
of quiet resignation in their faces is often
quite touching. The Egyptian. born to
lot of dirt, poverty and oppression, may
well learn patience early.

EsPARTERo.-The revolution in Spain ap-
pears to have been quite successful, and the
best sign which it has disclosed is calling
ESpartcro to the head of the Government
He is an intelligent and able man, and has
already done good service to his county,
He was the great supporter Of Christiana,
against the absolutism of Don Carlos. For
his great services he was made Regent of
Spain, which position he held for six years,
and his administration was marked with
wisdom, and tendency to liberal measures
lie was expelled by series of disgraceful
intrigues, and retired to England. While in
exile he made no effort to disturb the gov
ernment dc tdcto of his country and con-
tinuing the same line of conduct, after his
return to Spain, he never violated the terms
of his recall. That such man as this
should put himself at the head of the revo-
luton, proves, first that the revolution
wanted him secondly, that he saw in the
revolution a chance for improving the con-
dltion of the country. The establishment
Of great constitutional kingdom in Spain,
would be beneficial, not only to that un-
happy country, bat to all Europe.

DAYTON AND MICHIGAN RAILROAD.
Dayton and Michigan railroad company has
for some time owed $4,000 to parties in
New England, which was costing 3 per cent
a month. Desiring to pay off the debt, the
Board placed real estate, valued at about
100000, in the hands of Mr.. Beckel and
Judge Barbee, with the authority to effect
loan for the amount needed. We learn that,
being made entirely safe by the securities
mentioned, they borrowed the money yester-
day, on their individual names from the Ohio
Life Insurance and Trust Company, at sir
per cent. The operation is heavy saving
10 the company, and places its credit in
favorable position both abroad and at home.
Its means are not only abundant, but its
officers and hackers are gentlemen of that
substantial wealth and character so impor-
tant in these times of monetary caution

ONIONS FOR PoULTRY.-Scarcely too
much can be said in praise of onions for
fowls. They seem to be a preventive and
remedy for various diseases to which domes-
tic poultry are liable. Having frequently
tested their excellencies, we can speak under
standingly. For gapes and inflammation of
the throat, eyes, and head, onions are almost
a specific. We would recommend giving
fowls, especially the young chicks, as many
as they will eat, as often as twice or
three times week. They should be finely
chopped. A small addition of corn meal
is an improvement.

INDIANA BANKs.-The money article of
the Cincinnati Gazette of Friday, contains
the following important intelligence:
The result Of the bankers meeting at In
dianapolis yesterday, seems to afford general
satisfaction. Thirty-three banks We're rep
resented, and they agreed to redeem their pa
per, commencing on the 18th of September,
at indianapolis, in eastern exchange at per
cent. premium, as the maxium. They also
passed resolution, to the effect that they
will not receive the paper of such of the
free banks as refuse to come into the
arrangement, except at discount. The
result of this arrangement will be to sift out
such banks as are not upon sound or le-
gitimate basis, and place all the good banks
upon par footing.

H1sroR1cAL.-The expression, =" the Scots
sold their King for groat," occurred in this
way:
During the civil commotion in England
between the "Roundheads" and "Cava-
liers," Charles I. after the battle of Naseby,
in 1915, in which the royalists were defeat
ed, was forced to seek refuge in the Scottish
camp and on the 9Th of August 1649, they
gave him up to the English Parliament for
the sum of 100000. Some industrious
mathematician computed that this was just
a groat apiece for the whole population of
Scotland, and hence arose the saying alluded
to.

Col. John C. Fremont was among those

Col. John c. Fremont was among those
present at the Greytown affair. His accoun.
of it corroborates the worst representations
made of the conduct of Capt. Smith, and
does not vary materially from the other pub
lished accounts. He states that the killing
of the native by Smith was universally con-
sidered by the Americans as an act of delib-
crate and unprovoked murder, and that it
would have been easy to have had him hung
by mob law, had any influential person pro-
posed it; but his punishment by the Grey
town authorities was forbidden by Borland,
in pursuance of " instructions not to recog
nize that government in any manner.

The NEwsPApER.-In promotion of SO
desirable an object as the union of the in
tellectual with the useful, the newspaper is
an important auxiliary. 1t is more. 1t is
typical of the community in which it cir
culates and is encouraged. 1t tells its char
acter, as we'll as its condition its tastes, as
we'll as its necessities the moral, as we'll
as the physical, stamina of population and
soil. 1t is the map whereon are traced our
tendencies and destinies-the chart to direct
the traveller and settler to safe and pleasant
harborage, or to divert them from the shoals
and quicksands of social degradation. At
home, it brings to our firesides, it imparts to
our household, it impresses on our children,
its sentiment of propriety or its tone of con-
tamnation. Abroad, it is regarded as our
oracle, and speaks volumes for or against us.
In its business features may be discerned the
indications of our prosperity or otherwise,
in a worldly sense; but in its general COM
plexion will be discovered our moral and
spiritual heathfulness or disease. 1t is the
portraiture Of our imperfections, as well as
the chronicler Of our advancement Nat.

Frying PANs.-A single law passed by
Congress, supposing it had the power, and
obeyed by the people, would effect great
reform in the public health, diminish the
business of doctors, and the demands for
drugs, and prove of incalculable benefit to
this and future generations, Thus = Be it
enacted, that on the first day of January,
1858, every frying pan in the United States
be broken up and sold for old iron, and that
no more be manufactured henceforth forever
Frying is the most unwholesome of all
modes of cooking. Every thing cooked by
this method is saturated with fat or butter,
rendered tough, covered with empyreum oil,
and made as unfit as possible for the human
stomach. No dyspeptic should eat anything
fried, and no one should do so, who would
avoid becoming a dyspeptic. Let your food
be boiled or roasted, or broiled, or baked
even-anything but fried. Frying meat is
the worst possible mode of cooking; de-
stroying whatever good qualities it may
possess, and exaggerating its badness. And
all this comes of having frying-pans, spi-
ders, and other cast iron denominations for
making food unwholesome. Good people,
beware of the frying-pan; beware of the
fat which it scorches; and beware of the
meat, and fish, and eggs, which it renders
unfit for food and difficult of digestion, that
your days may be long in the land

translation of one of the songs of the Nile

your waist ; it sinks into your soft waist

The Sandusky Mirror is urging everybody
to 60 to Kansas at the earliest possible mo-
ment, so that it may not become slave
state. The people, we think, will settle that
question, and they will also administer a
settler to the demagogues who, for the
purpose of winning slave votes, have reck-
lessly exposed all that vast and fertile terri
tory to the evils of slavery. No thanks to
them if it escapes.-[O. S. Journal.

The North AND SOUTH DURING THE REvo-
LUTIoN.--The New York Sunday Times
states in reply to query, that question of
the comparative contributions of men by
different states and sections of the country,
in the war of the revolution, has been
subject of some controversy. AS early as
1870, however, in debate on the assumption
of State debts by the Union, Fisher Ames, a
from Massachusetts,, moved to
call upon the war department for informa-
tion in regard to the subject. The statement
was furnished by Gen. Knox, who was then
Secretary of War. 1t appears from this,
that of continental troops the northern
States furnished l72 495, and the southern
States 56,42l. Of militia, the northern
states furnished 46,049, and the southern
States l2,7l4. Of the continental troops,
Massachusetts, furnished 58937, Connect
cut $4,000, New York 17,781, PENNSYLVANIA
25,608, Rhode Island 5,908, New Hampshire
1896, New Jersey 10, ,727, Delaware 1887,
Maryland 1892, Virginia 26,672, North
Carolina 5,508, Georgia 2,679. The militia
were pretty much In the same ratio. In the
consideration of this subject it should be
borne in mind that there was at the time
but little difference in numbers between the
population of the northern and southern
States. By the census of 1880 the southern
States had population of l,956, 353, and
the northern States had population of L.
968, ,425 yet notwithstanding this, it would
appear that the north furnished many more
than the south.

he opened an account with the sub-treasurer

line is agreed upon, Mexico is to receive the
remaining $3,000,000 due under the treaty.
