WOMAN'S TRIALS.

Pots, kettles and pans,
Panss kettles and pots;
lam sick Of their sight, and would give them all
For bunch Of "forget-me- nets"
But my childred are moral, and cannot live
On the scent of nOsegay fair;
They would much prefera warm pork pie,
To aOWerets rich and rare.
II.
Tab, soap and suds,
SUds, soap and tubl
Ny arms are rcd, and my fingers spread,
With this long continued rub.
You may talk Of theripping brooks,
You may rave Of streamlets fair;
It would take the wators of both weeu.
To make these clothes look clear.
III.
Wood, chips and coal,
Coal, hips and wood
I've arranged them all as well as 1 can,
Bot my fire viii not burn good.
You may sing of the sturdy oak,
You may praise the lofty pine,
would rather have sOmo splinters now
To Hndle this fire Of mine.
".
1t is hard indeed to reign
In bitchOn and parlOr too,
And to meet your friends with cordial smile,
When you smell that bnrnimg stew.
To fold your hands and be calm,
And insist on a longer stay,
When you know your bread is being s5orched,
AEd the soup all boiling away.
v.
u, wish had never tried
ta(y's position to take,
Lea, Id then keep on my calico gown.
An 4 wash, and scrub, ana bake.
Oh pity ne ye who dwell
Ia cabin with one small room;
Oh. pity me yt whe never know
What il is to handle broom.

4 VOLUNTEER from Detroit, now in q

count of his fights with the Indians as fol-
lows.
Il have recently returned from another
Indian expedition. in which / took an &C
tive part under Col. Kit Carson. against
the KelOwa and Camanche Indians We
met them about 200 miles below Fort Bar
com. on the Canadian river. and had quite
a severe engagement with them. The fight
commenced about eight o'clock in the morn
ING. and lasted until sunset. We whipped
them badly. killing and wounding about
sixty Of their number and destroying one
hundred and fifty OF their lodges. There
were twelve or fifteen hundred Indians en-
gagged. and only two hundred and forty of
our troops. Our guns did
great execution in the fight and Col Car
son cOmplimenied us highly in his report
which was published in the Santa Fe Ga
zstfs. think the Indians would have de-
ieated Us had il not been for the battery.
for they fought with great desperation and
repeatedly charged our cavalry. who were
short of ammunition. When our battery
arrived. we commenced firing in rapid sue
cesSiOn. and soon pui them TO flight though
they rallied several times and kept I'D The
fight until night-fall One OF their modes
OF warfare was 20 set the prairie on fire
around Us and then take advantage bV get
ting behind the flames and smoke. and ire
on Us. They killed five OF our men and
wounded thirty Col Carson saws IN his
report that they received one Of the sever
est punishments they have ever had They
lost their entire village. and all the prop
erty in their Vigwams, consisting Of dried
meats. buffalo skins, Indian trappinEs. etc.
which We destroyed by fire.
There has been q number Of Indian fights
this winter. and the stages run very irreg-
ular on account Of the hostility Of the H.
dams. Large escorts of soldiers accom-
pany the stages going and coming from the
