the knife are plainly visible. At this point
Maxwell had the presence ofmind to make
known by his gesticulations and few In
dian words which he had picked up, that
he had whiskey and tobacco for them-an
announcement which acted like magic on
the red men, and led them to desist. He
then led them to private box in the wag-
ons which they had overlooked, where was
small quantity ofthese articles. So over
joyed were the Indians at the discovery of
these articles, that they spared Maxwell's
life, and at once took him to a wigwam,
when sqaw did up his wound in a raw
buffalo hide.
Maxwell was made practically a slave
to the band-did whatever he was COM
manded to do, and went with them on their
hunting parties. At first he was treated
harshly, but as he learned more of their
language and adopted more of their man
ners his treatment became better
When he had reached the point of eating
raw antelope and buffalo, they were de-
lighted, and began to think it was time
for him to take a squaw for wife. All
this time Maxwell, while appearing very
much attached to his Indian wife, was all
the while seeking an opportunity to escape.
Finally, on the 10th ult., when out on
Buffalo hunt with the Indians, hemanaged
in the chase to separate himself from his
comrades, and after fortnight's wandering
reached United States frontier fort
Here he was enabled to change his garb
for some soldiers clothing, and thence was
forwarded to Chicago by United States
officers.

these decorous Liliputians, as scalping or

Even awkwardness was visited with the
utmost severity of remark by those small

THE PNEUMATIC RAILWAY IN NEW YORK.

The Broadway Pneumatic Railway as far
as completed, was opened for inspection in
New York on Sunday afternoon to num-
Der of invited guests. The entrance is
down stairs in the basement corner on
Broadway and Warren streets, where is
nicely furnished office, reception rooms, Il
depot, steam engine, &C. In the depot is
car about the size of those that run in the
streets, and very similar in appearance,
while stretching to the north is circular
tunnel about large enough for man to
stand up in. This tunnel which is lighted
by gas jets, has covering first of iron then
of brick. The Post, after describing the
tunnel, remarks:
"The present length of the tunnel is two
hundred and ninety-four feet and six in
ches, and fifty eight days and ten hours
were consumed in constructing it. The
track is twenty-one feet under the surface
of Broadway, and the only circumstance
which would indicate that the visitor is
under busy thoroughfare is the constant
rumbling of vehicles overhead. The car
is built to conform to the shape ofthe tun-
mel, being semi circular in form. 1t has
comfortable accommodations for twenty
persons. The machinery is of immense
power, VIII VI very SuPerlor workmanship.
"When the tunnel is completed the cars
will be propelled by the suction of the
wind, which will be aroused by an enor-
nous wooden fan. Four men are continu-
ally employed tunneling, and daily dig out
four feet of earth, which is taken to the
surface. The tunneling is done by ny
draulic pressure. The shield, oval in form,
is pressed into the earth, no dirt being re-
moved except what is necessary for max
ing the hole.
"When the road is done one can travel
from the Battery to Central Park in ten
minutes. The company at first intended
only having it for conveying parcels, but
soon discovered the utility of running pas
senger cars The road in being built could
not run into the sewers, for the reason that
the line is below them"

ROMANTIC ADVENTURE OF A DowN-EAsT.
Err

Franklin Maxwell, man about 35 years
of age, native of Augusta, with wife
living with her father in New Sharon,
waited upon us ON Monday, and presented
papers and certificates which appeared re-
liable, and gave the following account OF
his life for the past four years. Early in
the rebellion Maxwell entered the regular
army, and served during the war without
receiving wound. Being discharged at
the expiration of his term of service, he
returned to Maine, and three years ago he
left his wife and home for the West to seek
employment. Reaching Detroit, he en-
gagged as WAGNER for the United States,
and was ordered to Colorado, where, for
nearly three years, he was engaged in driv-
ing supply teams from Drytown to various
points where the government had forts or
rendezvous for troops.
On the 5th of March last, as he and
others were conducting supply train in
the Pawn Tame Valley, about 800 miles
south of the Pacific Railroad, the train was
surprised by Little Kettles band of Indi-
ans, several of the whites killed, and he and
five others taken prisoners. He himself re-
ceived two wounds in his leg, one in his
side and blow from tomahawk on his
head. The prisoners were taken to Little
Kettles camp, when all but himself were
at once taken out, cut down with toma
hawks and scalped. Two of the whites
thus killed and scalped were William Han
son of Readfield, and George Town, OF
Winthrop. The scalps were hung upon
pole and the scalp dance performed
around them. Maxwell himself came very
near meeting the fate of his associates
Two Indians at the same time seized him
by the shoulders, while third began to
scalp him. The circular wounds made by

MY PLAYMATE.
by ]. G. WHITTIER.
The pines were dark on Ramoth hill,
Their song was soft and low
The blossoms in the sweet May wind
Were falling like the snow.
The blossoms drifted at our feet
The orchard birds sang clear
The sweetest and the saddest day
1t seemed of all the year.
For, more to me than birds or flowers,
My playmate left her home,
And took with her the laughing spring,
The music and the bloom.
She kissed the lips of kith and kin,
She laid her hands in mine;
What more could ask the bashful boy
Who fed finer ather's kline?
She left us in the bloom of May;
The constant years told DER
Their seasons with as sweet May morns,
But she came back no more.
walk, with noiseless feet, the round
OF uneventful years
Still DER and Ger sow the spring
And reap the autumn ears.
She lives where, all the goldea year,
Her summer roses blow;
The dusky children of the sun
Before her come and go.
There, haply, with her jeweled hands
She smoothes her silken gown
No more the homespun lap wherein
shook the walnuts down.
The wild grapes wait us by the brook,
And brown nuts on the hill,
And still the May-day flowers make sweet
The woods of Follymill.
The lilies blossom in the pond,
The bird builds in the tree,
The dark pines sing on Ramoth hill
The slow song of the sea.
wonder if she thinks of them,
And how the old time seems
If e'er the pines of Ramoth wood
Are sounding in her dreams.
see her face, hear her voice,
Does she remember mine?
And what to her is now the boy
Who fed her fathers kine2
What cares she that the orioles build
For other eyes than ours
That other hands with nuts are filled,
And other laps with flowers?
Oplaymate in the olden time
Our messy seat is green;
Its fringing violets blossom yet,
The old trees Ger it lean.
The winds, so sweet with birch and fern,
sweeter memory blow;
And there in spring the fairies sing
The song of long ago.
And still the pines of Ramoth wood
Are moaning like the sea-
The moaning Of the sea of change
Between myself and thee.
