son, of JOnesburg, No., who lately arrived
home from Texas. for the particulars Of the
following extraordinary occurrence which
took place short time since in the Indian
nation:
A certain Indian of the Choctaws was
some years ago suspe ted of having killed
another Indian of his tribe, but for lack Of
sufficient proof was not arrested. Aftcrward
he committed . wilful murder, and was
promptly arrested, tried and sentenced to be
shot to death. lie asked for twenty days

Whercupon lie was released and allowed tn

expiration of tho twenty days, according tO
appointment, the hour for the execution ar.
rived, and the Indian, true to his word, ut
the very hour and minute galloptd up to ths
place where the sentence was to be carried
out, in company with three of his sister;
and three brothers, all appearing as cheer.
full as though they had come to dance or
frolic. The coffin was then brought on the
ground. but some one remarked that it was
too small, upon which one of the doomed
Indians brothers told him to lay down on
1t and measure, which he cheerfully did,
and lauEh,ngly said, 1T fits all right" The
crowd MEANWHILE appeared to be in the most
cheerful spirits, and cracked jokes and
doomed man was ordered to sit ON the
ground. A handkerchief was then placed
over his eyes by his sister. While the Sher.

Indians brothers held the other on each
side of him. The Deputy Sheriff then stood

while the Deputy Sheriff reloaded Lis rife,
and at a signal he took s,eaiy aim, fired,

n Curious Calculation.

Tho Austrian and German press have been
going into very curious calculation in re.
gard to the war indemnity Of 8, ,0O0, ,OOO,.
GOO francs, which the French have 10 puy
the Prussians.
The following Is their calculations:
Five milliards (5. .OOO. 600, ,OOO) of francs in
gold NapOleons weigh 33, ,2jS cwts. Loaded
in wagons carrying each five tons gross. its
transport would require three hundred and
twenty-five such wagons.
The same sum in silver five franc pieces
represents q weight of 100000 cwts. A
smart specie clerk can count 10000 francs
In five franc pieces in an hour. Admitting
such clerk had commenced his counting 1t
the age of twcnty.One, and had counted
eight hours day every day, and three hun.
dred days each year, lie would have reached
the age of seventy three before he had ter.
minated the job
If these i, 600. .ooo, 900 of francs had been
in single franc pieces, ranged fiat in line,
they would extend distance Of l15, 900 XII.
l0meters-miles equivalent to nearly one.
third of the distance from the Garth to the
moon.
A like sum in . chain of gold coins of
twenty francs each would extend a distance
of exactly seven hundred German miles
two thousand seven hundred and thirty
English miles.
Finally, IL wc consider that less than q
milliard of minutes have elapsed since the
commencement of the Christian era, and
admitting that series of men had thrown
into heap five franc piece, or q dollar,
every minute by day and night, throughout
the whole 1870 years, they would not have
exhausted the amount Of the war indemnity
which France has to pay to Prussia.
