The Future ,e,a and tho Red Man,

The most sagacious cannot predict the fi-
ture course of our Government towards the
Indians. When treaties were formed and
the tribes from several States were settled
west Of the States Of Arkansas and Missouri
the Indians were made to believe that was
to be their permanent home. In good faith
many of them believed it,, and commenced
the pursui, of agricultural and domestic life.
School. houses and mission stations were O.
rec,ed, missionaries and teachers located a.
mongst ,hcm, and promises future good to
The children Of the fores. began TO be fe,a-
mongst the friends of Indian civilization
But the bill now pending before Congress 10
1.-The Nebraska Territory has crushed their
hopes, and so far destroyed thefaith and dis
quie,ed the spirits Of the tribes, thati. will
be along time before the missionary or teach
er Gun do as much again for The red man.
We wish TO submit 10 the powers that be,
and quietly give our adhesion to the laws OF
the nation, bu. still we heartily wish thai
onr Government, would give the Indian some
permanent home; until this is done, but little
good can be accomplished for them. ~!

brethren. He was labored with Affection

God" would slip out in. spite of his teeth.

"AND MY HEART TOO"

A few years ago, when it was the Gus
tom for large girls and larger boys 70
attend district schools. and when hagel'
lations wore moro common in school
than at the present time, an incident
took place in a'ncighboring town which
is worth recording as a "reminiscences Of
school-boy days.
One of the largest, plumpess and fair.
est girls in school happened to violate
one Of the teachers rules. The mas
ter, a prompt, energetic man oftwcpiy.
FIVE, at once summoned her into the
middle Of the floor, and, as usualin such
cases, the business of the school ceased,
and tho attention of every scholar was
directed to the girl, who, it was expect.
led, was to receive severe punishment.
After interrogating the girl few mo-
menls, the master took from his desk a
huge ruler, such as we seldom see now
a.days, and commanded the damsel to
hold sutherland. She hesitated. when
the master, in blaze of passion lhun.
dered out, "NVill you gite me your
handl" "Yes, sir, and my heart ,oo2'
promptly replied the girl, at the same
time stretching forth her hand to the
master, and eyeing him a cunning look.
A deathly silence reigned for q moment
in the school-room; ahmoist spot was
seen 10 glisten in the masters eye !; the
ruler was laid upon the desk, aud the
blushing girl was requested TO take her
seat but TO remain alter the school was
llismissedp' In three weeks after the
school finished, the schoolmaster and the
girl were married.-Palmer Journal.

NEW PLOW.

For the benefit of our friends and
readers we invite attention to the fol-
lowing description of new plow which
has just been patented. We extract it
from the st. Louis Intelligencer: i-
"Itruns without being held by the
hands and is supported andkept straight
in the furrow by two wheels, by which
its depth is also regulated. The clev-
ice is composed of au iron bar which is
raised or lowered as occasion may re-
quire, by small screw which may be
turned BY the hand. The great adyan-
,age Of this plow is that the motive pow.
er is placed nearer the work tlIan the
othcr plows, and tho mold board being
struighter, there is about one-third less
friction titan in any other plow now
used. gl Consequently, it requires one.
third less to do the same amouniofwor&
1t is, also, arranged,with particularre re-
gard to plowing rough, stumpy land,
und for breaking the ground close. a.
round the roots Of trees. the cleyice mo-
wing on either side as required. In
plowing with this ingenious piece Of
machinery, all a man has to do is to
walk along behind it or support himself i
on the handle as he may incline, and
turn the plow and le,itin tthe corners.
1t turns up the ground at a regular
depth, from tho most shallow to The
deepest furrow as required, unevenness
of land making no difference in its rum
ming, This paragon Of genius possess.
es all the advantages of all Other. plows
in use and many peculiar to its own
1t adopts indeed an ingenious contri-
vance aud farmers ought to see if they
wish TO possess q complete article OF
this sort"

Of Religious Worship Abroad

A Washington correspondent says:
You will remember that some time ago
General Cass introduced a resolution into
the Senate urging upon The Government to
take the proper steps to secureto our cit
izens in foreign lands, the free exercise Of
religious worship, and the right of sepul-
ture.. Against that resolution and the ac-
companying speech of General Cass, Bish-
op Hughes Illuminated in pastoral letter
to which the veteran statesman of Michi-
gan isabout 10 replyatlength inthe Senate,
as soon as Judge Phelps case shall be dis
posed Of. General Cass will show that
treaties Of similar nature have been
made in Europe ever since the middle OF
the eighteenth century, and that the num-
Der of treaties concluded amount to sixteen
or seventeen in number, commencing with
the treaty made by Frederic the Great of
Prussia with the Pope. III am rightly
informed, some very important American
witnesses will be summuned TO testify in
the case. Considerable interest is felt in
regard to the subject. s,,2a.a' d,

The Bible in Turkey kll !

aMeconlense, from areport of one Of
the agents ofthe British and Foreign Bible
Society, at Smyrna, the following facts:
Five thousand and .hir.y-eight copies of
the Scriptures have been circulated in all
parts ofTurkey. More than eight hun.
dred dollars worth were paid for. Even
in the prineipalities where the fighting is
now going on he had considerable success
in distributing the word ofpeace. Among
the Armenians and HISTORIANS, chiefly
through the efforts Of American mission
. aries, a great and wonderful reformation
| is in progress. Even among the Greeks in
Asia Minor, Protestant communities are
formed, and there is demand for religious
teachers. They are very different from
their brethren in Greece. In town in
Asia Minor even number Of the Turks
are inquiring with earnes!ness about the
Christian faith, after they found that Pro-
testants did not use pictures and images in
their worship, as the Catholics. The
HISTORIANS and Armenians seem 10 be the
natural and proper missionaries to the
Turks by which they are surrounded.--
They speak the same language, their GUS
toms and manners are much alike and they
have constant intercourse with each other.
II would seem desirable, on this account,
that the ravages of war should be stayed,
thai this leaven Of the Gospel might have
time to work; but He who hath times and
seasons in his hand and knows what is best
, can overtule all things for good TO bis

GAMBLING G :. in i t LONDON.

During some latc investigations pre-;
naratory to an amendment of the law
J, concerning games and wagers, in
ENGLAND, the following resultstappear:
There are atthe presenttime eighteen
houses at the West End of the town
omen nightly expressly for the purpose
of gambling, situated in the parishes of
ST. flames, St. Ann, Soho, consisting Of
one in Albermarle street, one in Picca-
div three in Bennettstreet, four in St.
lanes street, three in Jermyn street,
ono in Coventry street, one in Leices-
ter street, and three in Castle street.
These establishments are most elegant.
", furnished; and the visitors supplied
with most luxurious suppcrs and choice
wines and liquors ad tibitam, free of
charge. These dens of iniquity are al
SO fortified with iron doors aud other
defences sufficiently strong to resist the
attacks Of the police, SO that timo may
he afforded for the destruction of the
implements used in playing the game OF
hazard. Each of these houses employs
on an average, ten persons, comprising
bankers, croupiets, groom.porters, door,
keepers, and boaaets. These last are
divided into two classes; the first re-
ceiyinp weekly salary, are required to
be constantly in the house, to act as de-
COWS at the table; the other includes
men Of superior ability, who from con-
slant t practice, have attained greatper-
fsc,ion in the manipulation Of the dice,
and receive per centageupon all mon-
ey won through their instrnmentality.
In carrying on this nefarious occupation
il has been .ascer,ained there are con-
stantly upwards Of 200 persons engaged;
state Of things which, as long as it is
allowed to exist, can only be regarded
as disgrace to tho nation, and re-
