plimepS Bingham paid him, and for which
Hoax knew he had paid so handsomely in
Mobilier favors beforehand. He would not
have shuddered any more than one of his own

knew the exact price. But when he had well
coined laudations from the Buffoon it was no
wonder he accepted them even from Bingham
Why he would have taken them from Colfax
or Patterson. Then Banks came in as s.But-

was never heard as rolled over the mosquito

"Howling Simplicity" and Kelley, as "Pig-

votes were counted and the farce was over.
But when we turn away, saddened and dis

the triumph of corruption ringing in our

England could be invaded. AS general
thing, he likes Bismarck and will tell
you what Bismarck is about to do. He
believes in Russia; but, somehow, never goes
there on account of the wolves, which are
known to make travel dangerous. His special
antipathy is the French people, especially if
he cannot speak the language. He admires
the Bonapartes and thinks the French pecu-
liarly unfit for republicanism. He resents the
universal impression that all Americans
abroad are in the sewing machine business,
and delights to buy imitation iewelry and
present it TO the servants. He becomes q
critical reader of the NEW York HEnAfD, Be-
ginning with the marriages and deaths. The

A series of prolonged yells and cheers a.
reused this camp from pleasant siesta, half
an hour after the departure of my last cour-
Ter. Generals Davis and Wheaton and the
other officers and all the men rushed from the
house and tents to find the cause OF the up
roar, and at once the whole camp was in COM
motion. Down the level plain north of the
house, was great cavalcade of mounted
horsemen. The studs rushed forward at once
at furious rate and soon neared the groups
of spectator scattered about the premises.
Captain Jack is captured" shouted sturdy
Sergeant. Again the valley echoed with
cheers and yells. The mounted command
was that of Perry. He had returned from
scout of 90 hours, three miles above the
mouth of Willow Greek, at half past ten
o'clock this morning, when the Warm Spring
scouts struck trail. and after brief search,
the Modocs were discovered, and Col. Perry
surrounded the Indian retreat. His men
were bound to fight. Suddenly Modoc shot
out from the rocks with white flag. He met
Warm Spring and said that Capt. Jack
wanted to surrender, and three scouts were
sent to meet Capt. Jack. He came out eau,
tiously, glanced about him a moment and
then, as if giving up all hopes, came forward
and held out his hand to his visitors. Then
two of his warriors, five squaws and seven
children darted forth and joined him in the
surrender.
The command that made this famous scout
was the squadron of the FIRST Cavalry of Col.
d. Perry.
Capt. Jack is about forty years old. lie is
FIVE feet and eight inches high, and compact
ly built. He has ia large and well formed
face, full OF individuality. Although dressed
in old clothes, he looks every inch chief
The Modocs are grouped in field near the
house and are surrounded by a guard. Spec
tators peer into Capt Jacks face with eager
interest, but he needs them not. lie is as
still as a statue.

An out of town liquor seller came to grief
in our police court on Monday, Judge Gilman
fining him thirty dollars and cost. There was
some tall swearing on the occasion, but the
Judge considered the case fully made out, and
decided accordingly. Several other indict.
ments might have been obtained; but it was
thought best to try one case first, and leave
others for future consideration. 1t is risky
business to sell liquor in Maine at the present
time; and il must require man Of remark
able moral, or rather immoral courage, to
persist in the nefarious traffic at the imminent
hazard Of being compelled to pay heavy fines
or look through Thompson's splendid grated
windows. A case of assault was also disposed
of by Judge Gilman by fine, which was
promptly paid. The liquor case was appealed
a very convenient way to obtain temporary
respite from the terrors of the law. Keep the
ball in motion.

the town as they move about in their daily
duties. Mt. Pleasant and indeed all the other
cemeteries arc subject to a snow blockade for
several months in the year. A monument in
either of them could be accessible only during
the summer and fall months.
There is a vacant lot on Winthrop street,
from which has just been removed the cid
Waverly Hall, which, we submit, is just the
place for a soldiers monument. In the alb.
sence of any public park, that could be made
a miniature public garden, with its monument,
fountain, flowers, walks and shade trees. It
was purchased by the present proprietors for
five thousand dollars, and we have the best of
reasons for saying that they would generously
make free gift of the lot to the city, on con-
dition that it be put in proper shape and
monument erected thereon. The lot is about
one hundred feet square, and there is there
fore room for the adornments and identifying
that are suggested above. To erect mon
ument of which our citizens would not be
ashamed, to enclose the lot with an iron fence,
lay out walks, etc, would cost about $40, 900.
Some of our citizens, we know, would be glad
to invest $500 or $1,000 each in that enter
prise. Let US hear from some of our citizens
on this subject 1t should interest them all.

Welcome to a Pastor.

Welcome to a Pastor.
The reunion of pastor and people at the
vestry of the Congregational society, in Gar
diner, on Saturday even ing. was a very en-
joyable affair. Rev. A. L. Park, the pastor,
sailed about eleven months ago for an OK.
tended tour through Europe and Palestine,
and his people, thankful for his safe return,
gave him reception, as above stated, at the
vestry. During the last two or three weeks
the vestry has been thoroughly renovated and
improved, and on this occasion was orna-
mented with appropriate notices and en-
blems. Tables were spread with an elegant
display of the delicacies of the season, as
abundant in quantity as excellent in quality
At eight o'clock the pastor entered the room
and was received by Mr.. N. o. Mitchell, who
made graceful address of welcome in behalf
Of the people, TO which Mr.. Park responded
happily and feelingly. An original hymn of
welcome, Correcting to our Pastor" was then
sung by the choir, to the tune of Aud Lang
Syne, after which formalities were at an end,
and all present engaged in social conversation
and HAND shakings with the pastor. 1t may
be mentioned as an indication of the esteem
in which Mr.. Park is held, not only by his
own people but by the community at large,
that every clergyman in the city was present,
with the exception of Mr.. Bartlett, the Free
Will Baptist clergyman, whose absence on
account of sickness was regretted. There
was also a good representation of the lay
members from other churches. The COM
pany dispersed at little before ten, all agree
ing that it was an exceedingly pleasant occa-
sion. Mr.. Park occupied his pulpit for the
first time since his return Sunday morning.
The church was we'll filled and the services
began with the singing Of an original hymn
composed by J. NJ. Larrabee, Esq The
preacher took for his text the saying of
Paul, that "The whole world lieth in wicked.
ness" The sermon was a general account
Of the state of religion in the various coun-
tries which he had visited. Some of his
statements were surprising and startling and
as whole the sermon made dark picture.
But the afternoon discourse was upon the
subject of Gods remedy for the heathenism
of the world, the leaven that was working,
the noble and efficient labors of missionaries,
the results already accomplished and the
prospects for the conversion of the world to
the Lord Jesus Christ. The afternoon ser.
mon left feeling of cheerfulness and hope
fulness, entirely in harmony with the JOY and
gratitude of the people at being permitted to
listen again to the familiar voice of their
pastor.

Greene Camp, May Alive
Via San Francisco, June 2.
After a thorough examination of the Modoc
captives gathered in during the present scout
under Col. Green, it has been ascertained
that the last haul netted "a men, women and
children, 10 of them being able0 bodied war
riors, lG rifles Of various patterns, ll3 cart
ridges and several lean and hungry ponies.
Boston Charley and Schonchin are anxious
about the disposition to be made of them.
The former murdered DR.. Thomas and the
latter mutilated Meacham. They both look
like desperadees. Each carries his character
in his face. Charley is % years of age and
Schonchin 80. The boldest warrior of the
band is Scar Faced Charley. DIR. Cabaness
of Yreka, the contract surgeon, who slept in
their retreat last night, says of Capt. Jack
that he presented most woe begone appear
ance. The willy warrior sat upon the centre
of rock in q little lava bed, few yards
back from the crest of bluff and
was wrapped in a faded army blanket and his
head was buried in his hands. Sister Mary,
captured at Willow creek the day before yes
terday, talked to him with tears in her eyes
and asked that ne enter our camp. He was
sullen and had little to say. He did promise
that he would surrender to-day. In the night
he stole away. The Modocs say that Capt.
is insane. There is much method in his mad.
ness. At present he is thought to be in the
neighborhood, with from three to Ave war
riors. There are IL Modoc warriors at large
now. Scouts were made to-day by the caval-
ry in three sections of the country, under
Col. Perry, Majors Trimble and Cressor. The
war with the Modocs As a tribe is over. Fight
ing after the guerilla fashion will probably be
continued until the last outlaw is captured or
killed. Capt. Hiseres' company of Oregon
volunteers, numbering 40, arrived in this
valley last evening and bivouaced near US.
They will have a chance to do some scouting
to-day.
