STEAM ON THE UPPER SNAKE RIVERA cor
respondent of the Idaho Statesman, writing
from Owyhee Landing, May 2lst, gives an in
terestiug description of an exploring trip
made by the steamer Shoshone from that place
mp the Snake river. The letter is too long
for publication in our columns. We take the
following from the correspondence
Just above the Bruno the river emerges
from another canyon, not so deep as the first,
but full of rapids, which the boat surmonnted
without difficulty. At distance of about six
miles we came to swift, rough water which,
with eighty pounds of steam, brought the
boat to halt. The captain backed out of
the situation and tied up and proceeded to
make explorations by land. We found two
miles of rapid, swift and rough water, with a
considerable fall at the head. With some
doubt in his ability to go over it, Captain N.Y.
rick ordered a full head of steam aud started
again with one hundred and ten pounds. The
whole length of the rapid was made with
ease till the PROV Of the boat touched the
break in the very head of the fall, when she
refused to go any farther Steam was raised
to the highest point allowed TO her boiler and
the boat held to her work for over half an
hour, bnt to no purpose. The fall Was too
much, aud with q few turns hack of the wheel
we went dartng down that two miles of rapids
with unusual steamboat velocity. With a
good line the boat might have been taken
over the rapid, but there was no safe one on
board, and the Captain therefore declined to
try it, That point is probably about sixty
miles, by the course of the river, from this
landing how far above the boat might 60,
there was, OF course, no means to ascertain.
High bluffs aud q smooth river were all that
could be seen ahead. The river is naccess-
BILE on both sides SO that nothing can be
gained by running up to that point, unless a
higher one can be reached. Of that there is,
however, but little doubt as with the aid of q
line boats can go over that rapid as, easily as
they do over some in the Willamette and Co.
lumba.
We made the run back to the landing in
about four hours, arriving here at sundown
to-day and thus endeth the further navigation
of Snake river above this point for the pres
ent. That another and successful trial will
be made before long, have no doubt, as the
falls that terminated this trip can easily be
overcome, aud there may be no more serious
one for many miles above.

BY OwYHEE SrAaE.-News came from Ruby
lat night of another Indian raid made prin-
cipally upon Cinnamon. A messenger came
for Major Marshall from Camp Lyon with the
statement that Chinaman had come into that
camp reporting that he was the only one of a
party of fifty who was known to have escaped
AN attack upon their camp, about four miles
river. There were also two white men with
the Cinnamon, and all are supposed 10 be
killed Lieut.. Pepoon started immediately
for the spot, aud found twenty two dead bodies
there, corroborating in the main, the story of
the Chinaman. Lieut.. Pepoon sent messen-
ger back to Col. Coppinger, who has followed
in hopes to overtake the Indians. The mas
sacre is supposed to have occurred last Mon
day or Tuesday.-Idaho Statesman.

GREENBAoK CASE DEoIDED.-Judge Rix, of
the San Francisco Police Court, lately de-
cided.a street car greenback case, and held
that the car conductors and companies are
compelled to receive greenbacks in payment
for tickets. The decision gives universal sat-
iafaction to the public, but is not reisbed by
the street railroad companies, who have given
potice of their intention to appealto the higher
courts. In log.rolling bill through the
Legislature, authorizing them to raise the
fares, the companies accomplished their OBJ
jsct, but it is not likely to benefit them.

The Weaker Sex.

The weaker sex? Emile Villars bids the
world ponder on its old verdict. He has made
his calculations When average lady begins
her toilet in the morning, she weighs something
between 10 and 80 pounds A frail, feeble crea-
ture is this; a tender flower; sample of the
weaker and prosecuted sexi Weak? Let the
reading reflect. She will carry, before she is
completely equipped for the Bois de Boulogue,
95 yards of textile fabrics of various qualities
and weights, from lawn to velvet. Then follow
the shawl, the bonnet and the veil, studded with
steel ornaments. And now for jewelry and dec
orations of all kinds-combs, diadems, bande-
letters chains buckles, necklace, earrings false
hair, frisetts, powder, paint, high-heeled boots
NJ. Emile Villars, in brief, has figured the weight
that ssthe weaker sex' easily carries, summer
afternoons, to the Bois, in the shape of toilets.
The weight is, he tells us, a little more that Is
pounds--exactly the weight of q carbineer's
breast-plate The breass-plate the carbineer
bears only on horseback whereas, the weaker
sex dances under her load. Simple folks visit
ing the tower have wondered how the brave men
of old bore and fought in the massive armor on
show there how much greater should their
wonder be to see ''the weaker sex" dancing un-
der the weight of a modern beauty's complete

Tell Your Mother.

| wonder how many girls tell their mother
IN going to and from school, smile, bow and
exchange notes and cartes de visites with
young men who make fun of you and you,
pictures, speaking in a way that would make
your cheeks burn with shame, if you heard
it. All this, most incredulous and romantic
young ladies, they viii do; although they
gaze at your fresh young face admiringly
and send or give you charming verses or DO
quets. No matter what ''other girls do >
don't you do it. School girl flirtatons may
end disastrously as many foolish, wretched
young girl could tell you. Your yearnine
for some one to love is a great need of every
woman's heart. But there is time for every
thing. Don't let the bloom and freshness o.
your heart be brushed off in silly firtations
Render yourself truly intelligent. And above
ell, tell your mother everything. "Fun" il
your dictionary would be indiscretion in hers
1t would do no harm to look aud see. Never
be ashamed to tell her, who should be your
best friend and confdant, all you think ant
feel. 1t is very strange that so many young
girls will tell every person before ''mother'
that which is most important that she should
know. It is very sad that Indifferent personl
should know more about her fair younI
daughters than herself. Fanny Fern.

PRAYER.

Doss thou labor under load of guilt
Come unto Christ, all that travail and are
heavy laden, and he will give you rest!-
Dost thou feel the pressure of afhiction or the
blast of cersure? Instead of loathing thy
being. instead of bursting out into sudden
burst of passion against thy foes, or contract
ing settled gloom of malice, unbosom thy
secrets, and disburden thy cares to him who
is both able and willing to resettls thy dis
composed mind. All that envenomed rancor
which is apt to smhitter our spirit against
mankind in general. aud our enemies in par
ticular, when we suffer undessrvedly, will
abate and die away as we strive to set our at
feetions things above. Our thoughts. like
the waters of the s,s, when exhaled towards
Heayen, will lose their offensive bitterness
and saltness, leave behind them each dis
tasteful quality, and sweeten into an amiable
humanity and candor, till they descend in
gentle showers of love and kindness upon oul
fellow creatures.-1Ueed.

ssIndians not Faxsd.,,

Poets have imagined Utopias of personal
peace, OF sweet content, of ever during happi-
mess, and OF unaloyed prosperity. These hap
py chmss OF their fancy have been peopled
with a perfect race of men and women by q
process at once novel, painless and peculiar
These children OF the brain have dwelt in these
lands of fancy, harmless and free, sinless and
careless, jolly and innocent, clad In mlsts and
shadows, feasting upon spontaneous fruits,
and sheltered only by the umbraee of the
clambering vine Or the primeval foliage of
Adams tail0r-the fig tree. 1t has never been
our good fortune to greet any ''srsveIer's re-
turn from these charmed lands Those who
have emigrated thither have never yet conde-
scended to revisit our lees happy regions with
their contributions to historical SCIENCE
Prepared always to give any history of travel
in those favored regions ''frst rate notice, -
that pleasure will no doubt be denied us for
an indefinite period.
But within the regions of the known and
real world there is race of men whose con-
dltion approximates to that of the ideal Uto-
plans, This is the constitutionally exempted
race of Indians not taxed, who do not vote,
who have no fractional share in constituting
congressional representation, and who are
piously excluded from oil possibility of citi-
zenship by the first sentence of the first sec-
tion of the lately vetoed civil rights bill. The
devout and philanthropic trainers of that bill
appear to have thought the state of an un-
taxed Indian Indefinitely better than that of
. taxed pale.face, and even better than that
of the ebony class whom they wish to raise to
the sphere Of taxation, suffrage, litigation and
social equality; hence, with equitable intent,
they refuse to the non-tax paying aboriginal
the political rights and franchises which they
30 freely accord to negroes.
NOW we are curious to know in what re.
