PAwNEE WAR.
The late Pawnee excursion has at least
demonstrated n fact worthy Of notice.
and that is that the country to the north
west is not sterile, as some supposed, but
possessing the finest cultivatible soil;
neither are the streams, which were cross
ed bv the advancing forces, destitute of
timber, but a s%uficiency is reported to
support large settlements in all the coun-
ties through which they passed.
All Join in representing that they were
much pleased with the country and the
trip.
Their course of travel was up the val
lev of the Elkhorn, to nearly its source,
where they made their forced charge up
on the Indians who had committed the
d~epredatiOns.
A treaty of peace was ratified between
the ~contending powers, and each retreat
ed from the anticipated field of battle,
equally well satisfied probably that the
whole war had come to 50 peaceful a ter
mination, with the loss of about a dozen
Indians, seven Of whom are reported to
have been slain by Capt. Pattison's COM
pany, neal De Witt, in Cunning county,
at the commencement of the war.
SETTLERS PROTECTION.
1t is certainly time that all SUCH depre-
dations were prevented in this Territory,
and should similar occurrences present
themselves, the inhabitants in the imme-
date n~eighborhood should feel themselves
justified, without further orders, to make
war upon them, after their manner n
mode of fighting among themselves, and
upon the principle that to the victor belong
the spoils. Let the enemy be slain and
driven from the country, and all the pro-
perty belonging to them become cOnfsca-
ted to the victorious warriors on the field
Of battle of the war path of the intruding
Indian.

ENEnsos's NosR-An excellent bust of En-
erson, the essayist, has been made by King, the
Boston sculptor, of which small copies in plas-
ter will be sold. The artist ii said to have
"dOne full justice to the ample nasal Protuber-
nnce that Mr.. Emerson possesses, and has
sighted no popularity of his cOuntenance"-
Speaking of noses and other features, Mr.. Emer-
son, in a recent lecture on Manners, shows his
appreciation of them:
LIVERY part OF mans person testified to his
predominant feelings and sentiments. But the
eve. rs the window of the soul, is the best index
Of the prevailing emotion. 1t speaks OF sick
ness or health, sorrow or joy, purity or guilt
There are eyes all innocence, as well as organs
out of which restless gnomes and demons peer:
Some eyes threaten like loaded and leveled
pistol, and others are as insulting as kissing or
kicking; some have no more expression than
blueberries, while others are as deep as well
which you can fall into Then there are noses
of mark. The nasal organs of Julius Caesar and
William Pitt were sure indces of their strong
will and resistless sway among men. The char
actcr of many persons can be deduced from
their habit of walking"
