OVER THE LErr.-The following good story is told
on Gen. Harvey by one of the officers who was with
him at the battle of Ash Hollow and afterwards at
Fort Pierre: ......
At the treaty held at the latter place. at which the
General had great talk with the chiefs OF all the
tribes lie stood few steps in advance OF his staff and
debating to the interpreter what to say, in his usual
gruf and authoritative manner: " Tell Them, said he,
that their great father at Washington has sent me
here to make them respect the treaties they have made
with the whites.
Tell them l am furnished with great number
of braves, horses and cannon. and that shall make
war upon them as long an Indian can be found on
these prairies, il they don't.
"Tel them that they must not kill or rob any more
emigran trains that crossing the plains, or stea
an, thing from the whites in any manner.
Ask them if they remember the fight at Asl
Hollow
fit will be remembered that great number of the
Indians made their escape through pass in the hill:
that the General knew nothing of until too late.l
g Tell them that | left place for them to ESCAPE
through, then prevent my braves from killing ever!
one of them;' and he continued, turning his eye
over his shoulder to his staff, it's lucky for then
that l didn't know where it was, or Id have killed
every id redskin in the Hollow

SPINsTERs' PARADIsE-The time for marriage in
Sparta was fixed by statute-that of the men at
about thirty thirtyfve years; that of the ladies'
at about twenty, or little younger. All men who
continued unmarried after the appointed time were
liable to prosecution; and all old bachelors were
prohibited from being present at the public exercise
Of the Spartan maidens and were denied the usual
respect and honors paid to the aged. Why should
give you place., cried young man to an unmarried
general, Sc when you have no child to give place to
me when | am od?" No marriage portions were
given with any of the madens, SO that neither
poverty should prevent gallant riches tempt
him to marry against his inclination. The parents of
three cqldren enjoyed considerable immunities, and
those with four children paid no taxes whatever-a
regulation which all married men with large families
will readily admit to be most wise and equihe. 1t
was customary for the bridesmaid to cut off the
the brides hair on her wedding day. so that for some
time teast her personal attractions should increase
with her years. Wheeler's Life of Herodotus.

CURIOUS DIsCovERY.-The Central TeNian learns
from gentleman OF "undoubed problty," that while
he was cutting down trees in the vicinity OF Navsoto
he made Il most remarkable discovery. He cut down,
among other trees a huge cottonwood with ho
low in it, and an aperture from the outside some six
feet above the ground Upon splitting open the tree,
the hollow found to contain an Indians skeleton,
which was perfect, not bone missing The cOnjec
ture is, that at some time other the Indian got
into this hollow tree to make his escape from some
enemy or wild animal, and was unable to get out
again, ard so persisted.
But the most remarkable part of this story is, that
this huge cottonwood" measured only "some three
feet in circumference and it must have been much
smaller when the Indian got into it, as it is supposed
the hole through which the Indian entered must have
been much nearer the ground at that time, as it Is
deemed impossible for him to have got in at its pres
ent elevation 1t is therefore reasonable to suppose
the tree has grown in circumference in about the
same proportion it has grown in heigth since the
Indian got in 1t must therefore have been rather
tight fit at first.

EpVcATG Your DAUGHTERs.--A writer says: when
lived among the Choctaw Indians, held q consul
tation with of their chiefs respecting the success
i've stages of their progress i'll the arts of civilized
life: and among other things he informed me that at
their first start they fell into great mistake-they
only sent their boys to school, The boys became in
telligent men, but they married uneducated and I'M
civilized wives aud the uniform result was, that the
children were all like the mother Thus the father
soon lost all his interest in both wife and children
And now said he, "if we would educate but one
class of our children should choose the girls for
when they become mothers they would educate their
sons" This is the point, and it is true, No nation
can become fully and permanently civilized and en-
liphtened when the mothers are not in good degree
qualified to discharge the duties of the home work
