Banks Departure from the shenan-
doah Valley.
[John Paul in the New York Tribune

ldOlm Paul IN The New YORK Iribune.l
I met General Banks at a pleasant
picnic in Mr.. Frank Leslie's grounds on
Saturday. It was on the banks of the
Z" lonely lake, " and there were water
falls and fountains, mosses and ferns,
cold chickens and cold champagne, to
the hearts content It grieves me that
the general does not remember how we
travelled in company once; but the cir
cumstances were not very favorable for
photography, perhaps. We we're
travelling out of the Shenandoah valley,
and maneuvering very successfully to
draw Stonewau Jackson along in our
rear. Not man of us but swOre that
the rebel general should not set foot on
the frontier of our native state without
finding us sternly confronting him in
the interior. And it was only necessary
to gaze once in each soldiers face to see
that the hated enemy could not capture
us without stepping over the boundary
lines and violating the territory Of
Maine. wished several times during

bursts of speed which that faithful
creature showed on several occasions,

Just how near the detested foe got to as
at times. It may not be that won any
spurs in the Shenandoah, but had
pair to start IN with, and used them
we'll coming out. No, am confident
that no one won any spurs down there,
though We played straight poker for
most everything else, and lost my

subsequently had no need for them
But this is DEPRESSING. You may not
think me a hero from all this, but who
is hero to his valley?

The Creation; According to the
Modocs.

MoQocS.
Mr.. Joaquin Miller, in bis book enti-
tied Life Among the Modocs, has given
some picturesque sketches of Indian
life and traditions. Among much other
interesting matter, he tells us that the
idea of the creation of the world as it
was entertained by the Modocs, now
verging on extinction IN accordance
with the demands of modern civiliza-
ton, was this: The Great Spirit made
Mount Shasta first of all He pushed
down snow and ice from the skies
through a hole which he made IN the
blue heavens by turning a stone round
and round, till he made this great
mountain; then he stepped out of the
clouds on to the mountain top, and de-
scended and planted the trees all around
by putting his finger on the ground.
The sun melted the snow, and the water
ran down and nurtured the trees and
made the rivers After this he made
the fish for the rivers out of the small
end of his staff He made the birds by
blowing some leaves which he took up
from the ground among the trees. After
that he made the beasts out of the re-
mainder of his stick, but he made the
grizzly bear ont OF the big end, and
made him master over all the others.
Having done that, the Great Spirit con-
verted Mount Shasta into a wigwam, and
its volcanic eruptions are the outcome
of the fire that he lights in the centre of
the mountain. The development Of
man was a later occurrence. The
daughter of the Great Spirit, venturing
too far, got astray and fell into the
power Of the grizzly bears, and she was
forced to marry one of them, and the
red men were the fruit Of the marriage.
These red men were taken under the
protection of the Great Spirit but the
grizzlies were punished by being COM
PEELED to walk on four feet, whereas
before they had walked on two. To
this day the grizzly bear is never slain
by the red men, who. recognize in him
a sort of kinsman.

Pawnee-sioux.
omoiaI Details OF the Recent Aboriginal
Battle.


The following account of the recent
fight between the Pawnee and Sioux In
dians have been received at the war de-
partment through Gen1 Sheridan, from
the superintendent of Indian affairs
at Omaha. This morning John Will
Hanson. sub-agent in charge of the
Pawnee hunters, returned and said that
after a successful hunt in which they
had killed thousand buffalo, and be-
ing heavily laden with meat and hides,
ON their return home they were sur-
prised in camp by Sioux supposed to be
one thousand strong, and before they
could escape or make successful resist
ance nearly one hundred men, women
and children were slain and scalped.
The wounded, dead and dying and the
helpless children we're thrown into a
heap and burned in the most barbarous
manner possible. Comparatively few
of the women and children of the tribe
were with them, but nearly all who
we're there became victims of the ruth
less an unprovoked slaughter. Buha-
loes had just been seen, possibly de-
coyed within their view, and many of
them were out after them. Sky, the
chief, was killed. Williamson made
his escape on horseback, but lost his
pack-horse and all his goods. Young
Platt, companion of Williamson, also
lost his horse. They met a few soldiers
from Fort Mcpherson, and gave them
the particulars of the massacre. The
Pawnees, sorrowful and disheartened,
are returning home as fast as possible.
Williamson brought six badly wounded
Indians on the train TO Silver Greek
station, and David Dains, with teams
had left to bring them home Much
excitement prevails, and the spirit of
war is running at fever heat William
sons runners report only two Sioux
killed.

PINE leaves are largely utilized in
Europe. They are converted into q
kind of wool or wadding. which is used
for upholstery instead of hair. A kind
Of flannel is also made from this fibre,
which is said to be very superior for
nx,ny hygienic uses, as for rheumatism
and skin diseases. Vests, drawers.
loose shirts, etc, are also made. In the
process Of the manufacture an ethereal
oil is also obtained, very useful as a
solvent, and as a curative agent. Gas is
also made from the refuse, and used
for lighting the manufactures or the
entire refuse may be pressed into the
form OF bricks, when it becomes a most
excellent substitute for coal.

IT is announced that a new system of
telegraph is now finished and in sue
cessful operation. by this system it is
claimed that fifteen hundred words per
minute, In clear characters, can be sent
between Washington and New York,
a wire circuit of three hundred miles !;
and that, by the use of a certain kind of
automatic rePeaters, messages can be
sent any number Of thousands of miles
at the rate of six hundred words per
minute. The matter to be sent by this
new system is prepared by means Of
perforatiDg machines, the use of which
can be easily learned by any person Of
ordinary intelligence in ten days time.
These perforating machines can turn
out the messages, ready for automatic
transmission, ri the rate Of from one
hundred TO one hundred and forty
words a minute. If the system viii
really do what is claimed for It, it is
second only in importance 70 the tele-
graph itself.

where a drum sounds, and she exclaims,
"a drum DRUM Macbeth doth come T.
there was some difficulty or neglect in

She Immediately saw how absurd il
would be TO say "drum" while the
sound of trumpet filed the ears of the

NEwToN's EocESTR1CrTIEs. - Isaac
Newton, during the two years which he
spent in preparing and developing his
immortal work, only lived to calculate
and think, preserving no connection
with the ordinary affairs of life. 1t is
said that, frequently, on rising in the
morning, he would sit down by his
bedside, arrested by some new concep-
ton, and would rema n for hours to-
gether engaged in tracing it out, with
out dressing himself. If he did get on
his clothes before the mood came on,
he would ignore the necessity of eating.
A waggish friend called one day, and,
finding him absorbed in thought, sat
down and ate the dinner which
servant brought. When Newton came
to himself, he arose, lifted the cover,
and quietly remarked: 4" I had forgot
ten that had dined. To one who asked
him by what means he had arrived at
his discoveries, he replied BY always
thinking unto them" Here was the
secret of his success.
