Pawnee Rock.

In western annals. certain places. nm
important in themselves, have gained 4
large Importance and wide celebrity
from their associations. Such Il place
was Pawnee Rock. Though only Il land
mark of the plains, a cluster of reddish
colored rocks in 4 bluff on the north
side OF the Arkansas, it WAS Il famous
place so lately as three Or four years
ago. All frontiersmen and Indians
knew it well. 1t had witnessed a u
ell, many q treaty and SWAP" many 4
| gathering of the clans while yet the
encroachments OF the white man were
.ar to the eastward. 1t occupied the
same necessary place in Indian and
| frontier affairs which Il country town or
commercial center might in civilization,
and finally become endowed with Il
semi sacredness in savage eyes. As n
place where momentous negotiations
| are carried on, and solemn compacts
made, this red landmark on the western
plains is entitled TO more consideration
than PENIS Oak, and probably has 4

1t is strange to reflect that the history

vance of civilization. Only 4 few days
since, the quarter section upon which it
stands was turned into a farm. Not by

its history; but, as though the extremes
of birth and education should meet upon
the scene of savage camps and councils.

Norburg, n of the old Bishop Hill col

it is, is n of the richest in western
Kansas. People are gathering around
it upon all sides, and soon it will likely
be the nearest neighbor to a church or a
school-house.
People who are fond of associations,
and who have some regard for that
strange history of a race which is rapid
ly passing away without a record, ex-
cept such as this, will be glad to reflect
that the famous landmark is not n tree,
or a mound, liable to waste and decay,
