A Classic Scene.

Mn. EDIroR Il witnessed a kind of
wrestling match between two Indians yes
terday. which put me in mind of the wrestling
match between Ulysses and Ajax, at the
Olympic games after the death of Patroclus,
described by Homer in his Illiad.
One of the Indians was of Ajaxian proper.
tions, but tolerably tight he was one of the
Yuba tribe, and drank whiskey. The other
was of the Sutter Indians, and perfectly sober
but much smaller, and older; he had his squaw
in tow and was much abused by the Indian
Ajax. Ajax at last seized hold Of Ulysses
and then commenced trial for mastery
which put me in mind Of the lines in Popes
Homer:
'Nor could Ulysses, for his art renowned,
O'eFturn the strength of Ajax on the ground,
Nor could the strength of Ajax overthrow
The watchful caution of his artfu foe.
Now let me lift thee, chief, or lift thou me
Prove we our force and Jove the rest decree.
So straining hard, he heaved him of the ground
With matchess strength that time Ulysses
found"
Ulysses left him there bleeding, and walk
ed off peaceably with his squaw. saying "Yu.
ba Indian, bad Indian-drink whiskey-no
good, Sutter Indian no drink whiskey."

MAN SHoT IN HONEY LAKE VA1LEY.-On
the 7th inst, at Honey Lake Valley, man
known as big John Chapman and dangerous
ly wounded by one Albert Smith. AS we
received the story, says the Plumas Standard,
it appears that Smith had been informed that
Chapman had stated that he would kill him
(Smith) on sight. Smith accordingly armed
himself, and seeing Chapman on the day
spoken of approaching Drake d Pierce's
store, in which he was employed, stepped
behind the door, drew his revolver, and upon
chapman's entering discharged four or five
barrels at him, all of which took effect, one
in the neck, another in his back, another in
his side, and the last in his hip. Smith then
ran, and was followed by Chapman, as well
as his wounded condition would permit, he
having in the mean time succeeded in draw
idg his own revolver. Smith made good his
escape from Chapman, but afterwards deliv =
cred himself up to the citizens, by whom he
was to have been tried
