steamer, and thought they had engaged

officers ofthe boat, named, was peoulia

the opportunity too good to be lost. He

AN OLD GENTLEMAN CHARMED Our OF
TWELVE HUNDRED DoLLARs--The gypsies
have stolen $1,000 from an old man
named Pcarso Of Limerick, Maine. They
made him believe. that 81 900 was buried
in pot on his farm, and persuaded him
to get the 81 200 together, and deposit it
in small trunk, to remain in his possession
six days, while they were working she
charm to find out the spot where the S4,-
600 was hidden. Soon afterward, the
gypscy woman returned, and accused the
elderly greenhorn of opening the trunk,
thereby defeating "tbe charm He
confessed he had done so. and that the
gypsey woman counted the money again,
and took the key, leaving the trunk and
money, as he thought, with Mr.. Pearse ;
but at the expiration of the six days he
found that the charm had worked so po-
tently that neither the money nor the
gypsies could be found.

DEATH OF A MIsER.-The Chicago
Press mentions that few days ago mi>
ser, named Grunderson. died in that city
from the effects of the miserable food his
avarice compelled him to eat, end because
he would not take medicines or have a
physician, lest he should be called upon
to pay the expense. Since his death it
has been ascertained that he had ,S4, 900
deposited In bank, and owned block in
the western division of the city. He left
no win, aud had several respectable chill

says: :" We have recently seen some
pretty tall Dragging on zig tress, but We

since of seeing one that tnkes the shine off
of anything that has yet been spoken Of.
Our tree is a sycamore, and stands on an
island in James River, which belongs to

of Bedford. The tree is about SO feet In

"Iowa, with its $4,000 square miles,

A Redskin Romance.

A private soldier, writing from Fort
Lamarie, mentions the following incidents
ofthe Massacre of Lieutenant Grattan l
will give you two facts connected with
the massacre, which I have never seen
in the newspapers. A musician, one OF
the party, owned or married squaw, and
on that unfortunate day, when she saw
danger threatening the troops, she rallied
her father and brother to preserve her
lover. When he fell wounded, she ran
to him to protect him from the arrows, OF
perish with him. Hcr father shot several
arrows in the other indians, and was
wounded himself in the Jealous defence
of the soldier. Then he sat down and
weps, as he could do no more.
The hostile Indians then rushed on the
soldier, tore him from the embrace OF
his squaw, and scalped him before her
eyes. After this, she could not be pre-
vailed upon to eat or drink, and starved
to death, dying in nine days, broken
hearted. The only soldier that reached
here alive was found by an Indian who
instead Of scaIping him, ministered to
his wants, carried water to his hiding
place. and endeavored to bring him into
the fort in the night. but being unable OF
afraid to accomplish his purpose, return
ed back to Mr. Bordeau's house, bearing
the soldier, and four Indians overlook
him, and wished to kill the wounded
man, or as they said, 81 that dog" The
reply of the noble friendly savage was,
"This white man must live, or 1 must
die" and bore him off in safety.
