An Indian Grrre,

The body, instead Of being consigned &c

platform. The latter was constructed oI
saplings. and was about twenty feet in
height, From Comstocb | learned that
with some of the tribes this is the usual
mode of disposing of the body after
death. The prevailing belief of the In,

tial that after death the departed must be
supplied with the same equipments and
ornaments considered necessary while in
the h9sh. In accordance with this belief
n complete Indian outfit, depending in
extent upon the rank and importance of
the deceased, is prepared, and consigned,
with the body to the final resting place.
The body found on this occasion must
have been that of son of some impor-
tant chief; it was not full grown, but ne
companied with all the arms and adorn-
ments usually worn by warriors. There
was the bow and culver full Of steel
pointed arrows, the tomahnwk and
scalping knife, and red clay pipe with
small bagfull of tobacco. In order
that the departed spirit should not be
wholly dependent upon his friends after
his arrival ut the happy hunting ground,
he had been supplied with provisions,
consisting of small parcels containing
coffee, sugar, and bread. Weapons of
modern structure had also been furnished
lin, revolver and rifle, with powder
and ball ammunition for each, and a
saddle, bride, and lariat for his pony.
Added to these was n supply of wearing
apparel, embracing every article known

various colored paints to be used in
decorating himself for war. a hand

ornamented with beads, completed the

A Nlmrod Of the Mountains.

The patriarch OF the North Fork re-
eeived MS with hospitality not perhaps
so original and picturesque as that OF tho
man OF the mountains, but with equal
frankness and cordially, and in house
whose architecture aud appliances indi.
Gated its propinquiiy to u good graded
turnpike. He too was surrounded with
stalwart sons and buXom daughters, and
his household was crowned with sub
stantial, smiling wife, which gives things
an mir of comfort not otherwise attalna'
bic.
Adam Kmr had also seen something OF
the world. Having driven cattle in his
youth, he had rccollcctions and anecdotes
of sundry visits to the lowland towns,
and perhaps had been even as far rs Bal
tmorc. But these were among the vani-
ties Of his youth, and had left little or no
impression on his manners or character,
With n fine. genial, honest mature ms IL
foundation, he had grown up the human
product of his adjacent mountains and
meadows. The lord proprietor of some
two thousand acres OF rocks and forest,
lying at all angles between perpendlcu-
lar and plain, he was n mighty hunter
Of deer and could tell bear stories to
compete with Meshach Browning. Five
hint-lock rifles Of different calibres and
patterns stood behind his chamber door
percussion he desplsed AS an innova-
tion-while skins and antlers adorned
his hall in true baronial fashion. The
fierce glitter of his eye and iron steadi-
ness of his arm rs he handled one of
those hunting-pieces, of length and
weight to crush dandy sportsman his
bare, horny feet, inpatient of shoes, cX-
cept on ceremonious occasions the rude
simplicity of his speech, occasionally
startling by its directness-all savored of
the mountains, savage and rock-ribbed.
But his estate was also enriched with
several handsome strips of river-bottom,
whose fertility reminded one of the Moor
field country. Hence the comfortable
homestead was surrounded with we'll
bred aud wcll-fed stock, with plenty of
corn in the cribs and hay in the barns
And hence also, there was n certain
milkiness, rs it were the milk of sect
corn, flowing from old Adams art,
which was abundant enough to ma one
forget the ruggedness, and love Il man
as he stood.-Porte Croyoa.

GalIantry of Sailors.

The achievement Of the United States
squadron at Marseilles, France, is causing
good deal of comment abroad. That city
and thousand merchant ships were ac-
tually saved from destruction by the dis
ciplne, skill and intrcpidity of the officers
and men.
The squadron, consisting of the Wabash,
Congress, Brooklyn Plymouth, Shenan-
doah, Juniata, and Wachusette, under the
command of Admiral Alden, lay in the
Napoleon Basin, amid inuumarable mer-
chantmen Of every description and from
every nation. Shortly after midnight
an. explosion startled the city, followed
by fire and dense clouds of heavy smoke,
which issued from an Italian ship just ar
rived from Philadelphia with a cargo of
petroleum. The nature Of the danger
soon became evident, and it seemed i'm
possible to prevent the spreading of the
fire from ship to shin, as they lay in such
a mass, and a general conflagration seemed
imminent, for the houses extended down
TO the wharf on every side. No city Of
France has the means to extlnguish a
great fire, and hence the people gathered,
contemplating the scene in panic-strickcn
fascinated horror.
Presently a well-manned boat came
from the part of the basin Illuminated by
the blaze and pulled directly toward the
burning ship. This was soon followed by
another, then third, ten, twenty, all the
boats o. the American squadron. A mo
ment later men were seen on the deck
of the burning ship. The silence of the
people on shore was such that they could
hear, through the smothered roar and
crackle of the fire, the word of command
and blows of axes. The people were think
ing of the hundreds of barrels of petroleum
below and its possible escape on shore and
communication to other ships. perhaps
Others with petroleum, and in Imagination
conceived the whole surface of the basin
covered with blazing oil. Presently the
burning vessel began to settle. She had
been scuttlcd and her cargo was now I'M
der water, the deck being level with the
surface. The danger from the escape of
burning petroleum was still imminent,
when line OF boats, dashed together STERN
and stern, as seen pulling away, and as
the tile Strengthened out the burning ship
moved also, and was slowly lowed out to
the bay by over two hundred well manned |
oars. Ii was only then that an immense
cheer broke from the thousands Of people, |
who felt inexpressble gratitude for the
salvation of the city.

1NToXICATING NosTRUMs. The persons
who have scruples of conscience against
perpendicular drinking at tavern bars,
can become bind drunk on almost any OF
the advertised "tonics' or invigoran.s''

ception to this rule; Nobody can "get
over the bay" on VINEGAR BITTERs, for
the simple reason that this famous removal

life. Its specific effects in acute and chronic
disorders efecting the stomach, the bowels,

muscles and the lungs, arc considered by
competent Judges the most extraordinary
medical phenomena Of the age. Vinegar

SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO AN EQuEsT An
At Dexter Park, Chicago, Charles Ret
tiker, the California Boy, undertook the
feat Of riding on horseback 800 miles in
twelve consecutive hours. The track
used was the circular one, seven-eights
of a mile in length. Fresh horses were
used for each round. On the twenty
fifth round the horse bolted the track
and leaped the rail, falling upon its rider,
who however, not being much hurt, le-
mounted and finished the round. On
the 19Sth round the race came to a sudden
termination, as the horse again jumped
the fence and threw his rider with such
force that he was obliged to be taken
from the park in carriage, and he now
lies in a very low state, although his
physician has some hopes of his recovery.
He had made l72s miles in nine hours
and twenty minutes, and but for the acct
dent would undoubtedly have finished
the feat.

HARD FOR THEM. If Moorish lady's
parents are rich, even then she is a stran-
ger to domestic comforts. She is gener-
ally secluded in corner of the house,
and lett entirely to the care of negress
and as she grows up her sole aim and de-
light is to become one of the most arrant
coquettes, and to plunge into all kinds of
intrigue. A woman, according TO the
ideas Of all Mussulmans, is nothing more
nor less than mere toy-a plaything, a
piece of furniture which every man ought
topossess, but which has no right to think
or TO act. Hence the cause Of her pro-
found ignorance and semi-barbarous
state and yet the Moorish women pos
sess wonderful talent for learning. There
is a French institution At Algiers to
which young Moorish girls are admitted.

FooD OF PLANTS. There is nutri-
ment for them in had rocks. Soil in
which they grow is essentially nothing
more than pulverized stones, with which
decomposing organized matter is mixed,
BY being thus reduced, potash, lime,
phosphates and many other clements in
them are set free. By exposure to air,
falling rain drops, freezing and thawing
alternately, besides other agencies in
nature, those salts ale liberated, and
being dissolved in water are then
absorbed by roots, and vegetation is
thus nourished. The theory of the
utility of manures is simply supplying
appropriate food to plants in greater
abundance than is attainable by them in
places in which their proper aliment has
been exhausted by continued culture.
Ashes, decaymg wood, bark, straw,
husks, shoes, bones, leaves, muck, and,
i'll short, whatever is perishable by de-
composition, yields something on which
hungry plants can feed luxuriously.
Therefore save everything of TIE kind
for that purpose. Without practical
economy in that way, there is neither
thrift on n farm or full gamers in
Autumn. That which is coal to-day may
enter into new relations tomorrow.
Once it was n tree, an animal, palace,
or perhaps floating in the atmosphere.
Matter is never at rest, but perpetually
assuming new and diversified forms.

To Make BOYS Good Farmers.

The american IgricWtU'iSt says: "1n-
duce them to take an interest in the
farm, in implements, in stock tell them
all your plans, your successes and failures;
give them a history of your own life,
and what you did and how you lived,
when a boy but do not harp too much
upon the degenerate character of the
young men OF the present age, but praise
them when You can and encourage them
to do still better. Let them dress up in
the evening, instead of sitting down IN
their dirty clothes in Il dirty room. Pro-
vide plenty of light. Thanks to kerosene,
our country homes can be as brilliantly
lighted as the gas-lit residences in the
city Encourage neighbors to drop IN
during evenings. Talk agriculture rather
than politics speak of the importance
of large crops, of good stock, of liberal
feeding, and of the advantages of making
animals comfortable, rather than of the
hard times, low prices and high wages.
Above all, encourage the boys to read
good agricultural books. Papers are well
enough, but an intelligent boy wants
something more. Get him some good
agricultural book to study. Read 1t
with him, and give him the benefit of
your experience and criticism. When he
has mastered this, give him another. In
our own case, we owe our love for farm
ing principally to the fact that our father
told rs of everything that he was doing
on the farm answering all The questions,
and encouraging rather than refusing our
childlike desire of helping HIM to pillow,
to chop, to let off water and fire the brush

who was prime minister of France, under
Louis Philippe, forty years ago. Then,

upon the subject of adverse votes of the
Chambers, and was always ready to resign
his Office at the slightest provocation.
One of these emergencies occurred, and
NJ. Theirs sent in his resignation, but at
an interview with the king he was in
duced to withdraw it. On the same day
a noted burglar had been captured and
brought before the jage dnstyaction,
whom he grossly insulted. The CouSti-

items about it: CATER his Majesty had

burglar, Jenneuse, was captured yester-
day by the gendarmes. He was taken in
irons before the .juge d'MSbuction, to
whom he had the impudence to say ::

pose in me touches my heart extremely.
