Apprehending Indian Troubles.


WASHINGTON, July 18.-Capt. Bernard
reports from camp Bidwell, Northern Cal
ifornia, that he has sent Lieut.. Kyle and
a party Of men to Fall River and Big Val
ley, 10 investigate reports of apprehended
danger from Indians in those localities.
Capt Bernard also says, the Indians say
their agent will give them nothing, and
they are forced to hunt for roots or starve.
If tbs be true, when the season is over
they may steal stock to live on.
Capt. Bernard's letter says: learn
that The Pahu,ahs have nearly all left the
Ipdisn reservation at Pyrimid Lake for
want of food. Fish, their only food
there, has failed to come down the
Tucl.ee, and the Indians have taken to
the mountains and valleys north, near
aud in Oregon, and the Pitt
river, to hunt for roots there
and obtain food. These valleys are all
more or less occupied by settlers and
rancamen. If the Indians in their hun
ger should, as they are likely to do, kill
stock or cattle, ranchmen viii probably
retaliate by shooting some stray, and,
perhaps, innocent Indians, and in this
way lead to difficulties. think if
the Indian Department at Nevada is pow
erless to give food to starving Indians,
military commanders should be author
lied to issue orders to send food in linn
tied quantities, which would be less
expensive than having to fight them.
Every precaution will be taken to prevent
a difficulty, but starving Indians cannot

PEARLS -AppletOn' Journal says
We were recently shown a brooch of
mixed diamonds and pearls, at the estab-
lishment of Messrs. Starr IL Marcus, of
No. % John street. One of the pearls
was perfectly spherical, and beneath it
hung a pear shaped one, both types OF
the purest Oriental pearls. Ia shape and
color they presented all those
distinguishing traits of excellence pc
euliar to this chaste and elegant
gem. Pearls are found in Indias
in Panama, in Scotland, in many fresh
water streams, but thoroughly good pearls
are, Notwithstanding, very rare. The
value of the pearl is determined by its
color and Its shape. Itmsy either be one
Of three forms perfect sphere, egg
shaped, or in form like an scroD, with
the base well rounded. The preferable
tint is slight golden one (uot Yellow
mixed with q faint blush of pink
Those in which the pink predOmin-
ates are specially priced. Steel-colored
pearls have also their charm, but the tint
should be decided, and not too much
, obscured. As the pearl is natural sub
stance, and worn just as it is rescuet
from the water, we can readily perceive
how difficult it is to find one possessing
st the same time the double merit of form
and lustre. The only true pearl possess
ing all the merits of excellence is the In
dian pearl, found at the island of Ceylon,
especially on the CODdatchy banks.

from an assignee in bankruptcy for ad-

The Judge expressed the opinion that too
