An Interesting Discovery.

Wosec it stated, upon what may be
considered reliable authority, that thirty
thousand Christians have recently been
found upon an island north of Cclebcs.-
1t has been rumored for a time that there
was there Christian people forgotten and
forsa<en, which however, yet possessed
thrcebibler, and continued stcadfastin the
faith. When missionaries first landed on
The island they met with a school-toacher
and his pupils wholep.ated in the Malay
an tongue, GAS the heart panteth after
tho water brooks, SO pantoth my soul after
thee, o Lord"
No Bibles were found, but the most
precious promises of the Biblowcro written
upon the bark Of trees. They knew the
Apostles Creed, and the Heidelberg
Catechism customs. Twenty churches and
schools yet existed. Through the instru-
mentality of Pastor Tcldring, founder Of
the Magdalcn Asylum at Lionbeck, and
chief patron of Inner Missions in Holland
our missionaries, who had been educated
under the venerable Gossner, were sent
out, and three thousand persons baptised.
This is certainly o most interesting dis
coyery. The Island on which these Chris
tians were found belongs to the East Indi-
an Archipelago. The Dutch have for
years had political rule in these regions.
This may account for the original intro
duction of Christianity among this people,
and for the fact !hat the Heidelberg Cate
chism was still found in their possession.
But still the particular time and circum-
stances in which this introduction took
callonppl ace may web lls5pecal attention,

oattIe until evening. 1t was learned that
| tne Cheyenhcs had killed one Pawnee
Ghlei, named tho French chief-a man be.
loved and admired by his tribe, who rode
learIesSiy IN among the Cheyennes and
turned the stampeded horses, but who
While thus engaged was speared to death.
There were some three or four wounded
/ out noneoE them mortally. All the hors.
es were rcscued-at least the Pawnees saw
so. Tho Cheyennes did not even succeed
IN taking the scalp Of the slain Pawnee,
VINO was buried the same day with loud
wall and lamentation, and as befitted the
dignity of a chief, with many weapons and
buffalo robes and vengeful vows, the last
otwhlch are destined to speedy resur
recton in bloody deeds.
"Gen. llmney had talk with the Paw
nees, also. He lectured them severely H.
bout their thiCving, but they defended
themselves by accusing the Cheyennes
| and Sioux OF various murders and robber-
les. lie also advised them not to retaliate
upon the Cheyennes, as the latter were
disposed to make peace. Their knitted
brows and mbrokcn silence gave evidence
that they did not much relish this advice
but yet in their reply they promised to re-
main quiet, although the periidy and
blood-thirstmess Of the Cheyennes was the
topic upon which they most elaborately
dWelt, One Of them, who had been at
Washington, and who displayed the med
ais which he received there, urged with
great skill the atrocious nature Of the in
suit given to the whites by the Cheyennes
in spilling blood under the walls of the
fort. Indeed. Gen. IIarney himself thought
that the Cheycnnes should have been pre-.
vented from attacking the Pawnees or any
any other nation in sight of the dag staff ::
and Col. May, who is now in command at
Fort hcarney promised that if the Chey-
cnnr5 should venture to make war near
the fort, he would chastise them. The
talk with the Pawnees was the most for
mai and impressive of the three, and all
the chiefs, without exception, gave mani
!estations of the weight which the Gener-
ais counsel had with them, and of the
fear with which they regard him.
1--WE remained day at Fort Kcaney,
setting out on the 23d ultimo, and accom-
plishing the journey to Leavenworth in
ten days. We heard that we should find
band of Arrapahoes on Little Blue, but
when we came here we found merely the
traces oftheir camp. We learned after
ward that they had entered into an alli-
ance with the Cheyennes to make war on
the Pawnces, butthat tthey had not arrived
at the rendezvous in time. The reckless
bravery Of the Cheyennes may be guessed
at from the fact that forty of them provok-
ed a battle with over thousand Pawnee
warriors, and in close proximity to the
United States troops, both in fort and
camp. 1t deserves to be mentioned that
a Pawnoe boy, fifteen years Of age, was
the person that rescued most of the hors
cs."

Gigantic SEELEToNs.-Wm. d. Frazer
writes to the CINCINNATI Gazette from
Winchester, Indiana, that half a mile nor
east Of that place, there is an old fort, in
Guiding about thirty acres Of ground with

centre is about twenty FIVE feet high,
while the fort or breastwork is only about
fifteen feet. Directly east and west of the
m ound are openings or gateways, around
which are other forts. A quarter of ii
mile northwest Of the fort is the burying-
ground, where bones have been exhumed,
Of men that were perhaps ten feet high.

FAsHIoNs-Now ANDiTHEN.-An old gen
tlcman furnishes the Philadelphia Even
ing Bulletin with the following interest
ing "reminiscences of fashion:
ain l79S the ladies wore n single hoop,
which was as large as the lower one now
is worn. The,hoopwa3 worn as high as the
hips, an Il below it depended n train five or
six yards long that was carried by wait
ing-maids or bows. The old gentleman
recollects seeing Mrs Robert Morris walk
along Broadway, New York, in company
with Aaron Burr, while he rtrain was car
ried by six mustee women, richly dressed,
and with turbans on their heads. The
women all wore stays, and shoes with
heels two or three inches high-im mense
silver buckets being on the shoes. Silk
dresses were not then common, and mus
lin ones worn, were admired according to-
the size of the flowers on them-roses as
large as ones hat being considered most
elegant and tasteful. At chat time, enor.
nous head-dresscs were worn, towering
far above the head of the wearer. The
head-gear for the street was a sort of cap,
which was placed upon the top
the head-dress, with curtain of cope
to tho sides and back, which hung down
tothe shoulders"

TIE TELEGRAPuIc SYSTEM.

On the sea-walis between Venice and
the Adriatic, erected by the City of the
Sea when she was yet proud republic,
NAPOLEON /. put the inscription "Ausu
Romano wre Neneto"-truly indicating
that Venidan money with Roman enter
prise had raised these remarkable bull
warls rescuing the harbor, as it were,
from being absorbed in the Lagune.-
Without much strainingof words or mean
ing, we might take some such similar in
scription as a motto for the Atlantic Tel
egraph, which certainly is the offspring of
English money and American science.
A considerable portion of the capital
was English. Put the suggestion, Of car
rying MoRsE's telegraph across the Allan
tic, was WHO'LL American, and Mr.. CYRUS
WEST FIELD is eminently entitled to i'm
mortal credit for the part which he has
taken in it, with equal energy and persc-
yerancc. Four years have elapsed since he
first devoted himself to this great project
four years of bodily as well as mental la
Dor. He had the fatigues and peril of
much travel to encounter; he had to per-
suade legislatures as well individuals; he
had to interest capitalists in his scheme (;
he had to engage The service OF eminent
men of science; he had to make contracts
With General and State Governments :
he had to superintend everything and
supervise every body employed on or con-
nected with the enterprise; worse than
all, he had TO sustain repeated failures
At last came that crowning cOnsumation
of success, which places his name, for ever,
on the roll of fame. From the NeD York
Times of Yesterday, we take the following
biographical memoranda, knowing how
great and how natural must be the curios-
ity to learn particulars respecting such a
man:
"Cyrus West Field, who will be remem-
bered i'm all time for his connection with
the Oceanic Telegraph, was born at Stock
bridge in the year 1899. Upon arriving
at proper age he came to the city of
New York, and commenced business un-
der the training of A. r. Stewart, the emf;
ncnt merchant. He subsequently became
the head of one of the largest houses in
the city engaged in the manufacture and
sale ofpaper Four years ago, in social
party, composed of some four or five of
our eminent business men, the subject Of
connecting Europe with America was
broached. Mr.. Field at once became i'm
pressed with the idea of its feasibility, and
turned the whole energies of his mind to
bear upon the subject. He very soon,
with others, formed an association in this
city composed of Peter Cooper, Moses
Taylor, Marshal o. Roberts, Chandler
White, S. f. B. Morse, and David Dudley
Field, for the purpose efiecting commu-
nication between the Eastern and West
ern world. As first step Mr.. Cyrus W.
Field, with his brother, David Dudley and
Chandler White, went to Newfoundland,
and after overcoming many legislative diff
fcuties, procured a charter, under which
they constructed Il line of telegraph from

The GREAT COMET COME AT LAsr.-The
Nag York HaaH makes the following in
teresting announcement, Of which we see
no confirmation elsewhere.
"Wc learn from our dispatches by the
Arago that the great Comet of Charles V.
as it is some times called, but better
known to Astronomers as that of Fabrici-
us. has at last made its appearance, and
will very shortly be visible the naked eye.
1t has been seen from the Paris Observable
ry through its telescopes, and is pronoun-
ced by Arago the genuine article. A sharp
lookout has been kept up for it for a year
or two past 10y the European comet seels-
ers. 1t is not vet known whether it will
appear rs it once did, like very large
and bright star, or with tail one hundred
degrees in length. The curious hope that
it will its "wondrous tail unfold Its first
appearance was in 1864, and itssdisappoar-

A Female River Pirate /.

The Cleayland Plaiadcalcr, of the 10Th,
says:-"The notorious Maria Keys, alias
Faulkner, was arrested on last Saturday
by Marshal Gallagher and his aids, on q
charge of stealing some 500 worth of exA
ira gin from the warehouse of Mix & Nor
ris, River street, a few months since. She
was ordered to give bail in the sum of
$1,000, which she promptly did This
Maria Keys is the Queen of q gang Of a.
bout twenty dock pirates. Her hovel on
the west side, near the Old Exchange, is
their rendezvous. There the dock pirates
secure their swag,' thore Maria gives Or
ders, plans thieving expeditions, and is
Queen, Frequently, the police tell us,
she heads the banditti in person, dressing
herself in mems clothes. She has an eX-
tensiyo wardrobe, and can appear in any
character that she deems necessary for
the successful consummation OF her plans.
She has been known to rig herself up III
the character of a sailor, n canal boatman,
a verdant young man from the country,
an old gray haired and decrepid man, &c.
All alone she has cracked many ware
