The Desert Indian.
[From the Alta California. I


A large fraction of the Piute tribe of
Ipdians live on the great American Desert,
a region about 1000 miles long from north
to south, and about 800 miles wide from
| east to west. There are OH this desert
stretches of 100 miles without grass or
water. 1t is a region of sand and rocky
mountains, with but little vegetation, and
this Of peculiarly stunted character. This
is the home of the "Desert Indian" and
some facts exhibiting his nature, habits and
pccuiarities, may be interesting to your
readers.
The "Desert Indian" is as much a re-
Election of the country he inhabts as the
lizard or the horned frog. He is hollow
checked, thin, 1.-THE and active. His ne
cessities have rendered him superior in
endurance, quickness, sagacity and intel
lieonce to all neighboring tribes. Two
months ago "Desert Iudian," carrying
express, travelled one hundred and twenty
miles in twenty-five consecutive hours.
Their upper extremities are very slender
they carry scarcely any flesh but that
employed in locomotiou Their life has
impressed upon them a good physiology
their capacity to eat and starve is truly
astounding, Six months ago seven In.
Gians, including child six years old, ate {
horse that had perished from drinking aka
line water, which weighed no less than one
thousand pounds, from three o'clock in the
afternoon to ten o'clock on the morning o
the succeeding day intestines, heart liver
lungs and all; even the bones were crushed
and the marrow taken from them. Il
short, at ten o'clock next day nothing
remained of the horse but the hoofS. S.
in less than twenty-four hours, per capita
more than one hundred pounds Of mea
were consumed
7 Another instance: About year ago
gentleman driving number of horse
accross the desert lost thirty of them, Il
intervals, along the road. A party o
desert Indians" started in upon the road
so fatal to the horses, and devoured evea.
one of them as they went, coming out OF
q the other side of the desert as fat as seals
They travel in the scorching heat of tn
, desert from seventy to eighty miles da
without difficulty.
1t would seem that the Piute tribe G
Indians are in process of spontaneous an
natural determination, independent of an
destructive effects from contact with civil
zatiOn.

KU Lux JUGaED.-Doughty Gov. Hol-
den has got ole hundred Ku Kluxers
t"prominent citizens') in durauce vile. A
Ku Klux Judge has been shying habeas
corpus writs at the Governor, but Holden
don't scare worth cent, and he is going
to try the red-handed scoundrels by mil
itary commission. They thought they had
it all their own way down there They
read Brick Pomeroy's incendiary sheet,
hung "niggars," burned "carpet-baggerS"
out of house and home and ravished their
wives and daughters for good while with
entire safety. Gov. Holden threw grass
at them for some time. Now he is trying
stones, and we hope the Ku Klux rebels
like it.-EG.

DIED, at Abbeville Court House
on the morning Of December 18th
1870, DRESDEN, the infant son Of D. A
and G. V. Smith, aged two weeks
and three days. ~.
This bright and beautiful infant
has been transpfanted from earth tc
bloom in Heaven, and is now mum.
bered with the mighty hosts of infants
who surround the throne Of God, in
singing praises to Him and the Lamb.
Scarcely had this child been permit
ted to breathe itself into life, than it
was doomed TO dic-to giveup the life
it bau so recently obtained, and to
enter upon a life of .blissful immor-
tality. Whilst we deeply mourn this
dispensation Of kind Providence, in
snatcting from earth our darling boy,
yet we rejoice in knowing that our
sweet babe is at rest in the bosom OF
its Redcemer.
''Now let thought behold him
With his angel look, =.
Where those arms enfold him, ...
Which benignlv took
Is'aels bab"h to their Good Shepherds breast,
When his voice their tender meekness bl-st."
