Of disturbance and discontinue. I'VE know
how the natives fought on the Puuaub
| Their grand heroiSm drew bitter, if manly
Acknowledgements from the British. 1t
would seem that the reports We receive are
but the beginning Of series of records Of
desperate and defiant stands against the
British power in that region of the sun.
1t is stated that Sir Colin Campbell, Gn
officer Of known powers, had started for the
theatre Of war at four hours notice. Pre-
vious to the last news, $4,000 men had
been ordered for Indian service. The Lon
don Globe says
"As soon as the cabinet meeting had
terminated, the telegraph was actively at
work to different directions. The lst Roy
ais, at Dublin, the 10Th regiment, at Ports
mouth, the 30th, at Curragh, and the 10Th
HigEianders, at Dublin, were placed under
orders for making q force of 1000 men.
The draughts at the depot at Chatham to
the different regiments amount altogether
TO about 5000 men The 81 regiments of
dragon guards, battalion of the Goth
rifles, battalion of the rifle brigade, aud
the 7th fusiiers, making force of 1890
men, were under orders TO embrak for
India before the arrival of the last mail.
The Gath and 18th regiments have before
this reached Calcutta Altogether. the
total augmentation of the troops in India
will amonnt to II 900"
Thus have We glimpses Of the conflict, and
echoes of the dreadful notes of prepra-
ton being made to sustain it. We must
suspend judgment, however, and remember
that, as Edmund Burke said in regard to
the armies sent to keep US a colony, ter
ror is not always the effect of force and
an armament is not victory"

b6- We have heard the season thi'
year likened to that Of 1916. If our mem
Ory serves us right, the spring of this yeal
only can be likened TO that of 1916. Tha'
year it was cold throughout the spring anC
Summer. Snow fell in the Southern part
Of New England on the 9Th of June
There were frosts in every month in the
year. Corn after it had come up in May
was cut down by frost, aud had in mos
cases. to be re-planted. 1t was prevented
from ripening by early frosts in the lattel
part Of the season.

INDIAN TREArY.-The St. Paul (Min.
Democrat learns, from reliable sources, that
it is very probable treaty will be nego-
tiated this summer between the Govern.
ment aud the Yankton Sioux, for the ex-
tensive region of country bounded by the
Missouri river and the Big Sioux, on the
west and east and by the Missouri and
tho forty-ffth parallel of north latitude, on
the north and south.
This treaty will open up the best portion
of the Dacota to settlement, and its ratif.
cation will be hailed throughout the West
with feelings of pleasure.

The LARGEST CHAIN IN THE WoRLD-Ii
is believed that the largest cable in the
world is that now about to be used in the
operation Of raising the Russian ships sunk
at SevastopOl. 1t is 200 yards long; each
link weighs 300 pounds, and each LUX has
been separately treated by strain of 500
tons. 1t was manufactured at tha Reading
Forge, Reading, Pa. The value Of the
material to be furnished by the Russian
Government to be used in the raising Of
this fleet, will be about q million aud a
half of dollars, and the time occupied in
performing the contract will, it is thought,
be about two years.

I Owe no Man a Dollar.
By CHARLES =. snInAs.


oh, do not envy my own dear wife,
The wealth of bur next do or noighbcr,
But bid me stDlbe stout Of heart,
And checrIully follow my labor.
You must know, the last of those little debts,
That have been our lingering sorrow,
Is paid Mis- night. So wen both 60 forth
WITTY happier hearts tomorrow.
Our heighbor you saw in his coach today,
with his wife and ilauntins daughter,
While we sat down to our coverless board,
To crust and cup Of water
saw that the tcardrop stood in your eye,
Though you tried your best to conceal it
knew that the contrast reached your heart,
And you coald not help but feel it
But knowing nov that our scanty fare
Has freed my neck from the collar,
You will join my laugh, and help nc shout,
We owe no man dollar
This neighbor whose show has dazzled your eyes
In fact is a wretched debtor;
Ipity him oft from my very heart,
And wish that his lot were better.
Why, the man is the veriest slave alive,
For his dashing wife and daughter
Will live in style, though ruin should come
So he goes like lamb 10 the slaughter
But he feels it the tighter every day,
That terrible debtors collar
Oh, what would he give, could he say with ts,
Thafhe owed no man dollar!
You seem amazed, but I'll ten you more
Within two hours Imet him
Bneaking away with frightened air,
As if a liend had beset him
Yet he fed from very worthy man,
Whom met with the greatest pleasure
Whom called by name and forced TO stop,
Though he said he was not at leisure ;
He held my last note so | held him fast
Till he freed my neck from the collar
Then shook his haad as proudly said
"Now, | owe no man dollar y
All, now you smile, for you feel the force
0fthe truth have been repeating
knew that downright honest heart
In that gentle breast VS. beating. -
Tomorrow Ill rise with giants strength
To follow my daily labor;
But ere We sleep let us humbly pray
For our wretched next door heighbor;
And we'll pray for the time when all shall be free
From the weight of the debtors collar
When the poorest shall lift up his voice and cry,
"Now, owe no man dollarm
