Great Indian AssemDlage.

Dispatches from Fort Harker say
that Superintendent Murphy, un-
der date Of Medicine Lodge Creek,
October 5, writes that there are
now assembled Mt that point four
hundred and tLiry one lodges OF
Indians. Of these, one hundred
and twenty one lodges are Arfap-
ahoes, eighty-ouo Apaches, one
hundred and fifty Kiowas, and
twenty FIVE Cheycnnes. There are
three hundred Cheyenne lodges
now moving. One hundred lodges
of Camanchcs are encamped thirty
miles below, and Big Mouths band
OF Arrapahocs, twenty-oHo lodges,
will be present, making total of
eight hundred and fif>y-two lodges,
averaging six persons each, or
about five thousand Indians. There
was somo trouble in getting access
to the hostile Cheyeunes, and Col.
onel Butterfeld Was shot at and
lost bis horse and pistols. The
mission, so far, is considered q
great success. The Cheyennes are
now said to be anxious for peace.

FACTS ABOUT CUTTING TIMBER
Cut the timber from September 10
December, and you cannot get a
worm into it. October and No.
vcmber are perhaps the best
months, and are sure to avoid
worms. You cut from March to
June and you cannot save the tim.
bcr from worms or borers. May
used to be called "pccling time, +"
in my boyhood; and much was
then done in rrnonring bark for
tannerles, when the sap is up in
the trunk and all the pores are full
of sap; whereas in the fall and car
ly in the winter these pores are
empty-then is tho time to cut, and
there will be no worms. When you
see an OK bow with the bark tight,
there arc no worms, no powder
post, and you cannot separate it
from the wood; and what is true OF
one kind 10 true Of all kinds OF tim.
Der. and every kind has its pecul-
lar kind OF worms. Tho pine has,
| believe, the largest worms; and
these worms work many years, |
have found them alive and at work
in white oak spokes that l knew
had been in my garret over twelve
years, and they were much larger
than at first; they did not stop in
the sap, but continue in the solid
part. l do not think of buying
timber unless it is cut in the time
above alluded TO.
