A Tragic End.


A United States Indian agent tells a
pathetic and tragical story ofStanding Buff
falo, noted Indian chief. Buffalo was q
friend Of the whites, and refused 10 take
up arms against them. A party Of Yanc-
tons came up to the oncampment ofStnnd-
ing Bnfalo, and urged him to join them
10 a raid on the Gros Ventres. They
talked over the matter two days, and offered
Standing Buffalo four horsos and other
presents fho would join them aud lead the
party; but he refused, stating that he had
pledged his word to INC that ho aud none
Of his people would got war. The Yanc-
tons abused and deridcd him, and finally
told him he was coward aud no Chief If
be listened 10 the whites and re fused to
lead them to war. At tlastStaudipg Bulfa-
10 became wild with rage and excitement
and declared he would go to war but he
would goto die. He then made disposition
Of all bis horses, property aud other effects
giving everything away to relatives and
friends; counscod his brother aud son and
the head men Of bis tribe to listen when |
talked to them, and to abide faithfully by
the terms they had made; that he would
never return; would die in battle. Ho
started out and met large party Of Gros
Ventres and Assinihoines, far superior
to his own in number, on plain, and
charged them. He dashed into their midst
himself on his horse, and without firing
shot began striking tho enemy with his
1000 stick" He received about thirty shots
and fell dead.

With this issue we enter upon another
decade in the existence Of the Free Press
the "0ld Family Journal" Three
score years have already passed over it
leaving it a time-woro veteran, battered
and bruised by many's conflict, but VIC
trust still vigorous and full Of life. The
years which have contributed to make
it venerable have been, many Of them,
years of turmoil and strife-some Of them
years ofhorror and civil bloodshed. Many
q var has been declared and many peace
cementcd since first It commenced Its long
chronicle Of passing events, and in all that
time it has endcavored to continue faithful
on the side Of justice. In years to come
who can tell what further changes its pages
may record or how strange and unlocked
for may be the revolutions yet to come!-
No prophetic vision have we to pierce the
impenetrable veil aud see coming events
cast their shadows before, yet we would
fain hope and anticipate the dawning o.
prosperity and real peace on our troub-
led land; Of a sunshine Of rest from strife
unclouded by the folly and fury
Of ambitious politicians, who distract the
the halls Of Legislation their places being
filled by men who represent the people,
not themselves, and try to do their duty
accordingly. Speed the day!

A Ghost Story.

We do not give much credence to
ghost stories, but the following, appears
SO intrinsically reasonable, that we can not
for q moment doubtits truth. That appa'
rations do not always wander without suf-
fcient cause, is proved by the well attested
fact which we give below;
"Last Tuesday as Mrs. -, lady
of literary tastes aud studious habits sat
reading in her drawing room, the clock
on the mante-piece struck twelve; as
the last stroke reverberatcd through the
apartment, the door flung wide open; in the
act Of raising her head to repel the intrusion
Cunrung for) Of her servant, her eyes ros-
ted on the form Of her late husband. She
screamed and fell senscless on the carpet,
This brought up such members of the fam
ily as had not retired 10 rest; restoratives
were administered, and when Mrs. = had
regaincd suspended faculties, s,and being a
woman ofstrong mind and highly cultivated
intellect she felt disposed to consider the
whole distress she had undergone as the re-
suit ofcerlain associations between the mel
ancholy tale she had been pursuing and her
late loss operating upon partially derangod
nervous system. She, however, consid-
cred i, advisable that her maid servant
should repose in her chamber, lest any
return Of what she considered nervous
affection should distress herself and
alarm the family. Last Tuesday night,
feeling stronger and in better spirits than
she had been for some months past, Mrs.
- dispensed with the presence Of her
attendant, retiring alone to her chamber,
and went to bed little before ten o'clock.
Exactly as the clock struck twelve, she
was awakened from her sleep, and distinct
ly beheld the apparatiou she had seen
before, advancing from the table (Ou which
stood her lamp) till it stood opposite 10 and
and drew the curtains Of her bed. She
described her very blood retreatiug with
icy chilness to her heart from every vein.
The counteuance Of her beloved in life
wore not its benevolent aspect; the eyes
beaming with affection were now fixed in
stern regard on the trembling half dissol-
we'd being, who, with the courage. of desper-
alton, thus adjured him;
"Charles! dear Charles, Why are you
come again?"
"Jessie!' slowly and solcmnly gasped
tho shadowy form waving in his hand a
small paper, Jessie, pay my newspaper
accounts, let me rest in peace.

A Startling Exclamation.


Tho New Orleans Bulletin publishes the
following anecdoto of the celebrated Do
minican fraiar, Rocco, of Naples:
"Onc day he was preaching to a crowd
iu the market place. "This day. said
he, 81 will SEQ if you truly repent Of your
sins" Thereupou he commenced penl-
teutial discourse that made the hair Of the
hard hearted multitude stand upright; and
when they were all on their knees, gnash-
ing their teeth, beating their breasts and
putting on all imaginable signs Of convers-
ion, he suddenly cried,
Now you who truly repent Of your sins
hold up your hands"
There was not one present who did
not Immediately stretch out both arms.
Holy Arohargle Michael" then ex-
claimed Rocco Thou, who with thy adv
amautiue sword standcst by The judgement
seat Of God, hcw off every hand that has
been raised hypocri,ically."
"Iustantly every hand dropped, and
Roccopoured forth fresh invective against
the sinfullucss and pervcrsity Of his aud
ience."
