CLEVELAND, MURPHY & Co. From
Mr.. George Schumacher. who arrived in
town yesterday from Snake Valley, We
learn the following particulars: When
the news of the Indian scare first reached
him he and his party went out short
distance where they knew there was
some Indians. They found the red
skins badly scared and the chief, koh-
nistar, went in with them, together with
nearly all of his men. for protection.
On the morning of the 10th instant
Murphy, Cleveland and some thirty
others rode up and remarked the morn
ing was cold, but it would be warm
enough before long. They then de-
clared their intention to hang ten of the
Indians under the protection of Schu-
macher's party. Their motive was not
given, as they simply said they deserved
hanging and they were going to hang
ten of them. This rather summary pro-
ceeding was stopped by Schumacher and
his party, who wouldn't allow it. But
for their determined action Cleveland,
Murphy & Co. would undoubtedly have
hung the unfortunate redskins. Mr..
Schumacher assures us that the Indians
were perfectly innocent OF all attempt
or intent to get up an instruction, and
when they heard what they were charged
with came fiocking in to get their pro-
lection. Comment on the above is un-
necessary.
TILL the last few days we have never
regretted being poor, or wished We had
been born rich and not quite SO good
looking, but now we do. Within the
last week at least twenty different indi-
viduals have approached US and mys-
teriously taken US one side, and CHANGING
around. asked, "are you going to invest
in stocks?" Well, yes, we had thought
of investing few. "Well, now, III tell
you; buy -; its bound to 60 up,
you see if it don't; before Christmas il
will be $500; now you remember what
I'm telling you, and see if amt right. u
And this is what makes US regret our i'm
pecuniosity. Ii we only had few thou
sands now what chance is there. We
have had abundance of counsel and ad
vice, know all about it, and how pro
voking oil we lack is coin. IT'S eve
across our path there is always some
thing to prevent the smile from break
ing into broad laugh. But We shall
not idly complain, but We can not he'll
noticing how sad to be obliged to thro,
away golden opportunities one by one.
NINE. REIFFARTHs BENEFIT The pei

was of most excellent nature. TIL
untoward weather had depressing il
fuence, but the Hall was we'll filled an

preciative. We never heard Nine. Rel

delightful renditions. As for Vivian |

tleman, the love-lorn swain and all b
other delineations. Everyone was W,
pleased and came away with pleRsil
recollections of q pleasant evening.
LOCALS Items of interest in al
around Phoebe are just now extreme
scarce. The Indian war is over, the v,
unteers and regulars have all got back
good order and resumed their peacei
avocations, and order reigns in Warsa
The Indian braves have so far failed
make an appearance in the streets; pre-
ably too scared to come in. Everybo
is going around attending to business
usual, and while this is oil right, and
1t should be, it is rough on ye local p
veyor to ye public. No fight, no II
away, no hubbub of any sort, all OF viii
is of course highly commendable, but
little tame.
