MAM-MAIA-KIN, THE INDIAN CHIEF.-This chief,
says the Puget Sound Herald, unable to con-
tend against the whites with people he could
net control, aud which were only an adopted
people, who owed him no allegiance except
that his mother was Yakima, fed from the
land of his adoption TO that Of his forefathers,
aud the worn out and disunited Klikitats made
peace with Col. Wright. Not so with Kam-mai
akin; he sent word back that he never could
nor never would make peace with the whites
The discontented aud reckless young men Of
the great plains OF the Columbia have again
followed where he undoubtedly directed.
We regard Kam-mai-a-kin as the greatest
Indian chieftain living, and he will give the
troops much trouble, aud put the government
to a heavy expense, before he is conquered.
which will not be until he is killed. He Is too
remote for US at present to apprehend much
trouble with him. for he will hardly come into
the settlements. With the present condition of
cur troops, and their distribution 10 small COM
msnds to remote points, it will be some time
before Kan -mai-a.kin will be brought to ac-
count.

Great Fire at OroviIIe-,rhg fsasn In Aches:
A destructive FIRE visited Orcville on Monday
night, July 5th. The following brief acc0unt
Of the cOnfagratOn is copied from an extra Of
the Butte Record, issued the day after:
ORov1ILE, July 6. 1865 o'clock A. N.
A Ere broke out last evening about eleven
o'clock, in Chinese wash-house, opposite the
Orleans Hotel, on Montgomery street, and
spreading with great rapidty, destroyed the en-
tire business portion of the town.
Montgomery street, from Garriott's steam
saw-mill to Oak street, distance Of half . mile
is one mass of ruins, with the exception Of few
brick buildings.
Smiths brick building at the corner Of Down
er and Montgomery streets, occupied by Head
ley 4 Co.. was destroyed. Their loss is heavy,
probably not less than $4,000. There is but
one brick building standing above Myers street.
Smith l. SparAs' brick building occupied by
Albro as a hardware store, was also destroyed.
His loss is also very heavy. The Washington
block, corner Of Myers aud Montgomery, was
saved, rs were also the four brick buildings be-
| tween Myers aud Huntoon. The Thenter and
adjoining buildings, between Huntoon aud Lin
coin streets were saved, together with fen
wooden tenements.
The ST. Nicholas Hotel was destroyed, and its
loss will fall heavily upon its proprietor Frank
johnson, Esq MeDermott's drug store was dre
proof
From the head of Montgomery street past
Downer Myers, HuntoOn an6 Lincoln streets,
there are eight buildings only left standing
from thence the fire extended on the north side
c. Montgomery to the burnt district Of China
town.
On the northerly side Of Montgomery street
but two buildings are standing. On the oppo-
site side, all above Downer street are destroyed.
There are two or three buildings on Bird street
between Downer and Myers The brick build
ings on Bird street. between Myers and Hun
toOn. were saved, and one or two wooden teRc-
ments to which they afforded protection. 1t 10
impossible at the present writing to particular
ize or form anything like correct estimate of
the losses The assessed value of the town pro-
perty last year, was upwards OF 10000 and
looking at the burnt district In the lurid glare,
and scattered remnants Of the town, we are led
to believe that less than 100000 worth Of pro-
perty has been saved
In the great calamity which has at last fallen
upon US, we had no means Of combating the
devouring element, and as if to render the de-
struction of the town certain, the water works
| failed to supply the demand below Myers street.
The buildings occupied by the printing offices
were unscathed.
Amid all the fires of California, none have
more completely smitten an extensive business
community to the earth.
We learn that the remains of person were
found near the ruins Of the ST. Louis Hotel.
The loss of property is not less than $500, 900.

A LIVING relic or THH REvoLUTIoN.-Gov
Blaeksnake, the Indian chief still lives on the
Allegany Reservation, about six miles from
Randolph, Cattaraugus county, N. Y. His exact
age is not known by himself or any body else.
bat il is supposed he is ll6 years old. He was
a favorite Of Gen. Washington during the revo-
utionary war, and has now beautiful silver
medal which was presented to him by Wash
iAgton. Nore OF bis war dress is preserved.
His nusket and medal are the only remaining
articles that were with him in the pride and
prime Of life. The Great Spirit has been very
kind to him in prolonging his years but he is
so feeble that he repOses upon his couch great
portion of his time-is nearly blind. and must
soon join his brothers in the eternal hunting
grounds. II the most remarkable events that
have taken place in his history could be accu-
raiely collected. they would make volume OF
interesting matter. One Of his wonderful feats
was to 70 on foot during the revolutionary
war, ~ q bearer Of dispatches from the Reser.

The RUSSIAN AMooR CoMFANY.-An impor-
tant indication Of Russian activity in Eastern
Asia has lately especially come under our no.
tice, in the shape Of the Prospectus of Russian
Company for developing the resources Of the
AmOOr country.
This company has been started by Lieutenant
Benardak and citizen Roukavishnikof, and IL
is private undertaking, with capital limited
at the Outset to one million Of silver roubles or
about 1925 900. divided into 1000 shares OF
$50 roubles each; but, on the recommendation
Of the Siberian Committee, the Emperor has
been pleased to accord it so many valuable
privileges that 1t may almost be regarded rs a
national undertaking. As its operations in
crease the contributed capital may be augment
ed, with consent OF shareholder, and by the
issue Of 5000 more shares, TO three millions oi
r0ubles.--Ek.

GENERAL HoUsTON AND MExICo.-SOme words
which fell from General Houston in the Senate,
give color TO the runner that, after the adjourn
ment Of Congress, he intends to lead body OF
armed men into Mexico. He was speaking upon
his plan for Mexican PrOtectorate, and said
that If this Government does not interpose in
the name Of outraged humanity in Mexico, men
will be found who will not shrink from inter
posing to protect their rights and the rights OF
their fellow citizens.
Considering the character and antecedents Of
Gen. Houston, in connection with the circum-
stances Of Mexico at the present time, these
words may perhaps be significant. Our people
will not remain Indifferent, whatever the Co
vernment may do to the anomalous condition
of that extensive and adjacent republic. 1t will
be matter OF regret should any incursion of
q flibustering character be made, and the only
way TO prevent such an occurrence Is the reali-
zation of the PIotectorate or some similar pro-
ject, under the authority of the United States
But Congress has shown no disposition to take
steps in this direction, although our relations
with Mexico and Central America constitute
the most important Of all our foreign interests.
Under the circumstances 1t Is by no means
impossible that Gen. Houston should be chosen
to lead force into chihuahua and Sonora
perchauce to the capital city itself He is in
the full vigOr Of his mental and bodily faculties
His age is 65. Both his own countrymen and
the Mexicans know something Of his military
prowess. Who shall say that he will not again
make himself conspicuous as daring and vic
torieus military leader.

TEE USFNIsHEp MONUMENT or THE MOTHER
OF WAsHTE0ToE.-The unfinished monument to
Mary. the mother OF Washington, at Fredricks-
burgh, Va, is fast going to ruin, and is badly
dis6guFed with bullet and shot marks, being
used by the boys a. target,
The monument appears to be about half 6n-
ished, and has remained in its present condition
for several years. The explanation Of its being
left In such condition is this: A New Yerk
widOwer, wealthy and very vain Of his wealth,
was SQUIRTING. few years ago, young lady
connected with the Washington family. A monu-
ment to the mother Of Washington was at that
time talked of, and the amorous widower, to
make display Of his riches and win the favor
OF his lady leve, claimed the privilege Of build
ing it with his own resources BY the expendl-
ture Of several thousands Of dollars he rAiFed II
rapidly TO its present height but he did not rise
in Miss C.'s faver so briskly as bis stone struc-
ture rose into the air. In fact, she absolutely
discarded him, and then. as was To be expected
he Indignantly refused to pay for the laying oi
another stone. or course the structure, as nc
one else eaw at to take hold Of it. has ever
since remained at just the height 1t bad reached
when the widower was iilted.-LOuisUiIk Jour.

BILLY BowLEos.-The gala dress worn by
Gen. VIM. D. Legs. the Seminole chief, when
leaving New Orleans, was quite distiagS. A
New Orleans paper thus Describes it
When the boat approached the crazy pier
in front of the Barracks, which the high water
had reduced to mere skeleton Of twisted
panks and timbers, the first person who ap-
peared within the circle of the toreh-light was
the renowned and puissant warrior Of the Ever
glades, Billy Bowfegs. whose costume on the
occasion was az primitive and airy as thai
which renders the Georgia Major famous. Ia
his hand he held his trusty rife, and he, wal
magni6oently clad in an old cotton shirt, which
descended triHe lower than the waist, while
from his neck depended q gorgeous bras
brooch, of curious pattern.

HEALTH AT THE SOUTH.-Great apprehensons
are felt in the Southern States that the coming
summer will be very sickly one, and that the
dreadful scourge Of yellow fever, from which
will return this season with greater violence
than ever This fear is based upon the fact
that the long continued frsshets, at this partic-
ulaV time, are apt to breed febrile discases.--
Nearly one fourth Of the land on the Missis-
sippi, from Voksburg down 10 the mouth Of
the river, hes been 0verfOwed for many weeks,
and all the swamps, bayous and lagOons At the
South are gorged with stagnant water, in the
interiors Of Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia,
the freshets have been unprecedented.

The GREAT DEsERr.-A recent number OF the

the African desert not generally known 1t is
stated that not blade Of grass or q particle OF
verdure can be found on the whole sandy sx-

sis spring from the burning sands, and that, in
stead, Of an unbroken level surface, the desert
contains the most picturesque scenery, in the

tions into high mountains. and coetainlng racks
