Frontier Life-Yts Dangers.

Mrs. Margaret Ann Marble, one of the
captives taken at Spirit Lake, at the time of
Che recent massacre, arrived at Minnesota
ON the 30th of May, in charge of Mr.. Chao..
e. Flandrau, agent for the Sioux of the
Mississippi.
"On the 3oth of March a band of Indians
came TO their residence at Spirit Lake, Iowa,
murdered her husband, and took her priso
ner to their camp, where she found three
other white female captives-a Mrs. Thatch-
er, Mrs. Noble and Miss Gardner. Mrs.
Marble thinks the husbands of Mrs. Noble
and Mrs. Thatcher both escaped being kill.
ed, but the entire family OF Miss Gardner fell
prey before Miss G.'s own eyes, and then
she was dragged away to the wigwam ofthe
war chief OF the red mudrerers, and brutally
violated. Immediately alter committing
the murders at Spirit Lake, the Indians, with
their captres, started westward, and travel.
ed for about one month throueha circuitous,
rough route, unknown to any except the
savage, and encamped at last at q place
called Skunk Lake, west of the Big Sioux
river, and about one hundred and fifty miles
northwest Ot Spirit Lahe, where the outra.
ges were committed.
On the route the captives were subjected
to'the severest hurdships and torture, beinp
compelled to carry heavy packs OF shot, and
to perform the most degrading service by
day, and submit to the most brutal outra ges
by night. For the first few days of their
captivity they resisted lkeir tormentors, but
were beaten with clubs and threatened to be
shot, until they at last submitted, in the hone
to be sooner rescued.
Mrs. Thatcher, who was in feeble health,
was unable to carry the burdens i'm posed up.
sn her, and-when endeavoring to cross the
Big Sioux river upon some trees which the
Indians cut down on both sides to form
bridge, she, being very weak, lost her bal.
ance and fell iuto the river. She dropped
her burden and succeeded in swimming al.
most to the shore, when an Indian deliber.
ately aimed his rifle at her and shot her
through the head, killing her instantly. The
body was left to float down the current
which was redeemed with her warm life
blood. This tragic scene was hailed by the
Indian women (who seemed jealous of the
presence OF the white captives) with wild
shouts of exultation.
Mrs. Marble informs me that she and her
surviving companions read, with dreadful
! certaiAty, the fate which awaited them when
fatigue should overtake them. Mrs Marble
had her liberty purchased by Indans VINO
were sent out for that purpose.
On the 23d ult., party of friendly Lac
qui Parle Indians was despatched to Skunk
Lake, with all the requirements, in the shape
Of presents, to purchase the release of Mrs.
Noble and Miss Gardner. Four days trav.
ell would bring them to the camp Of Ink pa.

A Beautiful Cl:.ssicay Allusion,

Mr.. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, in his
address at the Musical Festival in Boston
last week, alluded to the submarine tele
graph in these words: sa
On Christmas Eve, in the year 1914, the
treaty between England and the United
States was signed at Ghent--a worthy CON-
memoration of that blessed event when the
Herald Angels we're heard singing to the
shepherds on the plains of Bethlehem, peace
on earth, GOOD will towards men," But
that treaty was not known on this side the
ocean for six or seven weeks after its date.
The great battle OF New Orleans, as you well
know, was fought at least two weeks after
that treaty of peace was signed. Our mod.
ern system of railroads, steamers and tele.
graphs might have saved that effusion OF fra.
terhal blood--might have deprived individu.
al heroes-might have deprived our country
and its history--of all the glory which be-.
longed to that really great victory If that
gigantic Ocean Harp. which Is at this mo.
meht In process OF being strung whose deep
diapason is destined to produce more magi-
cal music on the sea than mythology or
modern fable ever ascribed to siren, mer.
maid, or Arion--if the mysterious gamut of
that profound submarine chord had been in
successful operation then, as we hope it soon
will be, between st. Johns and Valentia
Bay--those cotton bag ramparts at New Or.
leans might never have been celebrated in
history while, of those who so gallantly de-
Tended them, many would no. have been laid
SO low, and some, perhaps, would hardly
have risen 90 high.

Determined 10 make Kansas "a
Slave State.

A tclegraphic despatch, dated st. Louis,
June 10th, states that the free State Legis.
lature met at Topeka on tho 9th. On the
10th. 1t went into secret session to discuss
the propriety of Immediately organizing and
putting in operation the new government.
On the lith, the Senate elected w. A..
Philips, U. s. Senator, (9 in the place of
Lane.
At the convention at Topeka on the 9th,
Lane presiding, resolutions were adopted
discerning the territorial government, declar
ing that the admission of Kansas into the
Union under the Topeka constitution, is
the only method Of adjusting the difficulties,
pledging itself to pursue the application
pending before Congress--recommnding the
Fres State party 10 disregard the approaching
election, and CASTING SUSPICION UPON ANY
MAN WHO CONSENTS TO BECOME A CANDIDATE
FOR THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
1t is evident that the Free State party in
Kansas, in conjunction with the Republican
leaders Of the North, is deliberately plotting
against the freedom of that territory. II
tina party had the least desire of establish.
ing free constitution for the new State, it
would enjon upon every ore of its members
the solemn duty fvoting at the election ot
delegates to form constitution. Nothing
but the most wicked desire to enslave free
men, and at the same time by pretended
love of liberty, manufacture political capita
for coming campaigns, could induce them tc
pursue their present line of policy. The
Free State men have majority in the ter.
ritory, and by voting at the election, could
make Kansas free. II then, by their ,yil IA,
default, Save State is formed, what hones
man in the country will held them guilt
less?

and clothing their families at the State
expense Tor nearly year. But the last and
greatest measure Of retrenehment; the most
magnificent FINANCIAL TRIUMPH was
reserved to Mr.. VIM. H. Gibson! At one
haul, he roos the treasury Of FIVE HUNDRED
AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS! What a
halo of glory should encircle the brow OF SO
distinguished reformer of public abuses!
What an immense and lasting honor be has
conferred upon his party!
Mr.. Gibson is a man of unquestionea tai
ent. He is one of the ablest orators Of Ohio.
No man in the State shouted louder for
bleeding Kansas than he-no man denounc-
ed the Democracy with greater bitterness.
He ccnvsssed nearly the whole State, max
ing the most eloquent appeals in behalf of
freedom. Kansas was bleeding-bleeding
to death, and Fremont was her only savior.
How little the people dreamed that the
State Treasury was bleeding to the tune of
half million. How little they dreamed
that this arch demagogue was only directing
their attention to Kansas that while they
were looking Gloay from home he might the
more successfully rob them of the money
which they had earned by the hardest and
most dilgent toll
The.moral of this transaction is plain
The people of Ohio should learn a lesson,
and that lesson is, that however much they
may sympathize with the miseries of ads
tant territory they should not entirely forget
that there are rights and interests at HOME
which require protection.

Republican. Iauffianism."

We congratulate the South Hadley Border
Ruffians on the fact that they seem to pos.
ess some worthy coadjStors in another part
ofliberty loving Massachusetts,. The Taun.
ton Gazette Of the 9Th says:
Some Of the Republicans of North Easton,
shade blacker than any of their kind, last
week sent the Democratic postmaster of that
village letter threatening to burn his Of
fee, and subject him to other injuries, unless
he desisted from his proceedings against
them for violation of postoflice laws; and, on
Sunday last, these pious partisans attempted
to put their threats into execution by means
of gunpowder deposited in the letter box OF
the pcstofice, together with other combusti-
bles sufficient to render the work elfectu1l
Fire was applied, but the saltpeter did
not explode.
A hit is as good as kick. Are our
friends disposed to try the Guy Fawkes
dodge!

The washington Monument.

The New York Tribune thus pitches into
the architecture of the Washington Monu.
ment at the seat OF Government. It SAYS:
ANY attempt to finish the Washington
Monument would, in our opinion, Sc an alb.
surd and ridiculous waste Of money. Should
itbe finished according to the original plan,
it would only be monument OF the total
want of taste in those who projected it and
those who contributed their money to build
it, But though, considered as monument
to the Father Of his Country, it is and would
be, unfinished or finished, a monstrous alb.
ortion; there is one purpose, and national
one, too, for which it is admirably adapted,
and which its present unfinished state fits il
for serving SO mucht the better. Let il stand
just as it is--a monument of the Know
Nothing party. To fit 1t exactly for that
purpose, nothing is needed but a change Of
name.

Bank s-IIelp Yourself

We have not time to look into the condi-
ton Of the Independent 3 INKS, to show the
ratio of their circulation to their deposits of
Stock, bat we are enabled to give officially
the amount of their deposits, and tor the
balance, every one must "help himself"
When the trouble about the State moneys
was announced here, the notes Of the Sene.
ca Bank were refused. We have heard
that they were thrown out at GAINESVILLE and
Chillicothe. We have also heard that the
Bank has suspended and is closed. The
c1use we have not understood-but the i'm.
preston is that the Treasury affairs have
something to do with it, although it is said
that the bank was winding up before the
reimbursement took place.
The last heard of the business Of the Bank
was that it rede erned only small parcels oi
notes. lis securities are said to be now
somewhere else-they are net in the hands
Of the Treasurer. "Help yourself" (if you
can) is the motto.
We annex the following statement of the
deposits of the Independent Banks. They
.re all found to be correct by the examining
Committee but the Seneca Bank Bonds. in
which there is supposed to be a screw loose,
as reported by the present Treasurer:-

Can EAe be Punished!

If poor man breaks into bis neighbours
house at night to steal a loaf Of bread, he is
tried, and upon conviction, is sent to the
Penitentiary. The question is often asked
on the street, can Gibson the defaultng
State Treasurer be punished! This is ex-
ceedingly doubtful. 1t is said that the only
statute in Ohio by which such defOulters can
be punished, was repealed by the last Legis-
iature. or this we cannot speak with cer-
tainty as the laws of last winter have but
few of them been published.
