AMONG THE INDIANS.
Rescue of n White Woman who Ind beeu
Captive of the Redskins for Two Yenrs

ReEsSmS Em,;T. Of n White M Wcman Wv who hob hnd been e
The Omaha Herald tells the following
About four years since family named Weigel
removed from Ohio to Kansas. and settled on n
stream known as Solomon's Fork. The family
consisted of John Weigel and wife and three
children, two boys and girl, the former aged
respectively ten and twelve years, and the
latter three. homestead of eighty acres was
taken up, and in two years was all under culti-
walton. At that time, as our readers will re-
member from accounts published, the Crow
feet Indians made a raid through that portion
of Kansas, leaving death and destruction in
their wake. The Weigel farm was attacked and
the entire family, except Mrs. Weigel, butchered.
That day was the last time she was seen until
Sunday last when General Carr made an attack
on an Indian village near Platte Valley Station.
Two white women were seen by the soldiers in
possession of the Indians struggling as
of General Carrs command. An order
was given to ''charge" and rescue the
women, which was obeyed with will by the
brave men, but before they could gain possess
sion of the women savage sunk his tOmahawk
into the head of one of them, whose only known
name is Susanna who fell to the earth. Another
red devil fired revolver at Mrs. Weigel, but the
shot fortunately struck rib and glanced off,
causing but slight wound. Before any other
murderous demonstrations could be made, pri-
yate soldier, whose name and company are at
present unknown, put spurs to his horse and
rushed gallantly to the very heart of the Indian
band, grasped Mrs. Weigel by the waist lifted
her on to his horse and gallOped away to the
wagon train, where all care and attention were
given to the unfortunate woman. Too much
praise cannot be bestowed upon this brave man,
and was his name but known it would be plea
sure to herald it forth to the world. The battle
soon afterwards came to termination by the
capture of the entire Indian outfit, with the eX-
ception of those who fell early in the fight.
Mrs Weigel stated to an officer that she had
been a prisoner among the Indians since the
summer of 1867. For year she had been the
forced mistress of Grow foot chief named
Buffalo Man, who tired of her after year and
a half, and disposed of her to another chief
named Tall Tree" the consideration being a
couple of ponies. She has become very coarse
of feature, caused by exposure. Her Joy at
being rescued was very great, but she seems,
after ALL discontented, and at times tired of life.
At the time of first capture, she was tied hand
and foot, and forced to pander to the hellisR
desires of her captors. Mrs. Weigel has rela-
tives in Ohio, who have been notified of her re-
capture, and will Immediately remove her to her
old Ohio home.

Hopes of the Cubans.

Hopes OF the CuD1nSs
Special Despatch to The EUening Telegraph.
WASHINGTON, July 26.-The Secretary of the
Cuban Junta, who is now here, makes no secret
of the fact that all the patriot Cubans are watch
ing with anxiety the developments of General
Sickles' mission to Spain. He says that if
Sckles accomplishes all that he expected to do
when he left the country, the Cuban troubles
will be at an end by next December.
He declines, of course, to tell all he knows
about the matter but from the tone of his con-
yersatiOn it is evident that the Cubans favor the
project of purchasing Cuba from Spain, provided
the United States will go security on her bonds
or assist in raising the funds.
Marine Corps.
Secretary Robson has relaxed somewhat the
stern discipline of the Marine Corps of the navy.
1t has been customary heretofore to innict very
severe punishments upon marines found guilty
of any offense. Mr.. Robson thinks that in
many instances the findings and sentences OF
courtsImartial are unnecessarily severe, and
he has refused to approve several that have re-
Gently been laid before him.
BH The Conservative Mississippians
will make vigorous effort to have the Presi-
sident remove General Ames, Military Com
mandant of that district, before the election in
November They allege that General Ames is a
violent radical, and declare that the election
cannot be fairly conducted if he is allowed to
remain in command of the State.

SECOND BOARD.
GEORGIA.


correspondent of the New York Times
writes as follows from Macon, July 2O-
The recent decision of the Supreme Court of
Georgia in the case of Chapman VS.. Warren
Akin has created great excitement and dscon-
tent throughout the State. 1t has decided that n
characterization who was prevented by the
Stay laws during the war from levying his judg-
ment against real estate, and recovering his
money, loses his lien altogether after four years
if the land to which the lien attached was sold
to a third party and that where the land was
not sold the judgment is dormant and must be
revived By this decision thousands of creditors
will lose their property, and be in reality de-
spoiled without any neglect or fault of their
own. This pushes ''relief' several points be-
yond anything which the Convention or Legs-
iature ever contemplated. Chief Justice
Brown and Judge McCay delivered this judg-
ment, and Judge Warner, who is universally ad-
mitted to be a much better lawyer and stands
higher than either or both of his associates, dis
sented in very severe terms, giving it to be as
clearly understood as official decorum would
permit that the judgment is unsound unjust,
and peryersion of law to meet political emer-
gency.

His Views the Present Condition of the
south.
Washington despatch, dated yesterday,
says:-
Ex-Governor Michael Hahn, of Louisiana,
editor of the New Orleans Republican, arrived
here this morning on his way to the North,
where he intends to spend some months. In re-
ply to the question, What is the political condi-
ton of Louisiana? he answered. 'We do not talk
politics in Louisiana any longer. All
the excitement and bitterness of one
wear ago has died out, and people are
now devotng themselves almost entirely
to money making and commercial pursuits" Mr..
Hahn represents his own State to be in a most
hourishing condition, and predicts that the
South generally win soon be the most prosperous
and richest section of the country. He says that
the cotton and sugar crop of Louisiana this year
will be the largest and best ever produced
there. In all the States through which he has
passed in his trip here he has seen evidences of
returning industry and wealth, from which he
aupurs the most beneficial results to the South
and the whole country. The cotton crop is so
far advanced that the worm can do no harm
even if it should make its appea Ince and even
in Virginia he saw evidences OF general industry
and thrift So far as the city of New Orleans is
concerned, he said that il is prosperous beyond
the most sanguine expectations. One bank there
has recently declared dividend of over thirty
per cent, and the yellow fever has not yet made
its appearance The people cease to talk about
the war, and there is II general disposition to
forget and forgive the past.

The Last Erio Ruilway Collision.

The collision which occurred near the jersey
City depot of the Erie Railway, on Wednesday
evening last appears to have resulted in the
injury of a greater number than was at first re-
ported, although the injuries were not in any
case of a serious character. Among the
number who were slightly hurt was the con-
ductor of the train. Mr.. James, who resides
near Paterson, N. J is not in any dangerous
condition. His injuries are said to have been
nothing more serious than several bruises upon
the body, a slight scratch upon the check and a
sprained ankle. The employees of the company
at the depot persist in denying the truth of Mr..
Bogert's statement, but as Mr.. BogerL was there
Qo bis cost when the disaster occurred, it
would seem as if he ought to be informed with
regard to it.-N. Y. Times of this morning.
