their forest home without either loss of life or
limb. This fact with their reported treatment at
! tracted SO much attention that it was not uncom-
mon Tor persons to come many miles to hear the
recital. ! was mostly present, and listened with
absorbing interest.
! The story is briefly this +: Ia April 1880 party
of Indians were in the house.yard before sunrise
with rifle. tomahawk, and scalping knife, so ar
ranged that they could be used either Extensively
or deiensiyely, Recognizing the leader, Grand.
father offered him his hand putting the tomahawk
in the other hand, which held the scalping knife,
and grasping the offered hand, he said in cultural
tones, "Now you get life."
After selecting p,under and provisions with
which they loaded the prisoners and themselves,
they set fire to all the buildings and commenced q
t:senty six days march through the wilderness.
Ou their arrival in the British dpminions they
were seyer,,y adopted in Indian families to eupply
the place of one o" the some and age, who had
been removed by death.
1t cannot be questioned that they lived life OF
prvation and suffering, passing as they did from
luxuries, to mere necessares but their unit
ed report was that their treatment was as good as
wa. possible in the circumstances. They were
Injected to no especial bardships, were encour-
aged to participate in all the exercises ard amuse.
rnents and when provisions were scant, the cap
tves were allotted more than their equal share
In the three years they spent among them four
young, well favored females testified that although
they passed days and nights in wigwams with a
single hunter and warrior, they had no reason to
suspect from act, word or look, that they were
thought of as females. The cheftain who head
ed the party was singularly magnanimous. In a
subsequ excursion he was wounded in the arm
by one of his prisoners he said to him "You
shoot me and de-" Gangrene took place, and
on the fourth day he died without uttcrng word
of reproach against his destroyer. The man had
acted Indian like he had fought brayely
for his side and tho greater tho injury done to the
enemy the better.
Those who have adopted the peace principle
honestly and underStandingly may we'll say, that
after all it was cruel murderous business. This is
true but let it be born in mind that they were in
the EN- ployment of q nation, professed followers o
the Prince Of Peace, to annoy another nation o.
Christians who resorted to the agencies t.
sustain their cause. The censure, in both cases
should BE applied where it belongs.

WHOLE NO. 637.
VIRGINIA OYSTERS.

Gov. Wise, Of Virginia, in his message to the
Virginia Legislature, lays down magni6ceas
programme for the oyster trade. lie says:
"Virgna possesses an orea Of about $50, 900
acres Of oyester beds, containing about 7S4, ,000,.
coo Of BUSHELS Of oysters. II is estimated that
the mother oyster spawns annually at least !, ,O00
I000 yet notwithstanding this enormous produc-
tive power and the vast Of oyster BEDS there
is danger of tho oyster being exterminated unless
measures adopted to prevent fishermen from
taking them at improper seasons of the year.
Governor Wise proposed to confne the oyster
catching business to citizens Of the State exclu-
siyely, and to charge three cents bushel for all
the oysters taken which he estimatss would yield
q revenue Of S4S0,000 annually He would have
u 1otilia Of four steamboats, employed to protect
the oyster beds from piraticle intruders; or he
would larm out the oyster beds to private contrac-
tors to do with them as they pleased The Gov
ernOr thinks tho oyster banks will pay better
bonus to the State than paper money banks aod
regards them as richer source Of profit than any
gold, coal, iron, or copper mines"
The Governor goes into n calculation that 96,-
600 tons, in all Of vessels boa,s canoes and
skitfs, ore engaged in the oyster fishery aud fixed
the minimum quantity which they take away every
year at Is, 100000 bushels lie thinks that the
actual quantity is double this but taking the low
est estimate, they are worth at the oyster rocks
333 cents a bushel, making an aggregate value Of
81 800 900. The oyster is immensely prolific
and it is estimated that the mother oyster spawns
about 100000 annually, in the mont of May, in
that climate. 1t takes about three years from the
spawn, for them, in favorable beds, to bo fit for
market.
The Governor estimates the four steamers to
cost 100000, and that 500 q year will man.
tain them. Besides watching the oysters, he pro-
poses that the steamers shall perform police duty
in garding the coast against the stealing and
ming away of slaves. lie also proposes that all
the citizens who engage in taking oysters shall
take out licence from the county courts, or from
the officers of the revenue steamers. If Virginia
should carry out this scheme or the Governor,
she would find in two three years large ball
ance on the wrong side of her tedger.
