Indian War.

Yesterday We had the startling
news of the uprising of the Indians
near Mount Idaho. the killing of a
settler named Norton and the wound
ing of his wife; also the report of a
general uprising of the Indians and
the killing of other settlers in that
immediate neighborhood, and the
general movement of troops in that
direction. The Oregoniam Of yester-
day gives the following conclusion
of the matter:
Mount Idaho is situated on Three
Mile creek about &C miles southeast
of Lewiston. Norton's place is 1S
miles this side of Mount Idaho and
48 miles from Lewiston on the
Mount Idaho and Lewiston road.
His nearest neighbors live about 10
miles distant.
From passengers arriving here
from Idaho Territory late Saturday
evening we learn that up to the time
they left Extraordinarily noon,
10Th inst,-to all appearance the In
dians of all that upper country are
without exception, disposed to
peace.
AS usual at this season of the year
there is general moving of Indian
tribes and families from the Umatil-
la, Columbia, Palouse and Snake
rivers towards the Spokane falls and
camus Prairie their object, as
usual, to afford the squaws an oppor-
tunity 20 dig the camus roots, and
to the boss Indians (the bone, sinew
and hope of the tribes an opportu
nifty to lie alternately on the grass,
play cards and run horses.
In all these imlgratlons and mo-
mentous conventions the whole tribe
goes, including patriarchs and ma
irons of a hundred years, down to
young redskins eight inches long
and four days old. At CoIfax our
informant met tits migratory flood
OF humanity, and, in going through
their numerous camps, only dlscov-
cred one old style horse pistol in
the hands of white youth, who had
just wrested the same from a stall
wart Indian that had stolen the same
from the boy but the day before.
These, it would seem, are the ap-
pearances and preparations for war,
from which it can be conjectured
that an uprising of the Indians
against the whites of that country
is at all probable, and from which
it is more probable that in case Ben
Norton has been killed, it has result
ed from war gotten up and prose
cuted by him on his own account
and with some lone Indian inimical
to him only. He

WONDERS OF MODERN SCIENCE.

The perfect accuracy with which
scientists are enabled TO reduce the most
minute particulars in their several de
partments, appears almost miraculous If
we view it in the light of the early ages.
Take for an example the elecro-magnet
ic telegraph-the greatest invention OF
the age. Is it not a marvellous degree
of accuracy which enables an operator
to eractiy locate fracture in a submer-
inc cable nearly three thousand miles
long? Our venerable clerk of the
weather has become so thoroughly famil-
lar with those most wayard elements of
nature that he can accurately predict
their movements. He can sit in Wash
ington and fortell what the weather will
be tomorrow in Florida or New York.
as if seven hundred miles did not inter
yene between him and the places named
And so in all departments of modern
science, what is required is he knowl-
edge of certain signs. From these the
chemists deduce accurate conclusions
regardless of distance. A few fossils
sent to the expert geologist enable him
to accurately determine the rock-forma-
ton from which they we're taken. He
can describe 1t to Won as perfectly as if
a cleft of it was living on his table. So
also the chemist can determine the con-
stitution of the sun as accurately as il
that luminary was not ninety-tive million
miles from his laboratory. The sun
sends certain signs over the @infinitude
of space and the chemist Classics them
by passing them through the spectre
scope. Only the presence of certain
substances could produce these solar
signs. So also, in medical science, dis
eases have certain unmistakeable signs
or symptoms, and by reason of this fact,

GOOD PRECEDENT.

One of the weakest points in our
public chool course is the almost total
neglect of the study Of General His
tory, in any grade below the High
School. We say the almost total neg
lect, for though there are isolated ex-
ceptions, they are only enough to prove
the rule. The study of United States
history receives great and general at
tention-we may almost say too great,
and we may certainly say dispropoT-
tiondte attentions there any reason
why the course in United States history
should not be abridged by year at
least, and the time thus gained be de-
voted to a rapid course of universal
historyg We can see none. Certainly
no study so widens the horizon OF
thought, no culture is SO iberalizing in
its tendency, or SO permanently beneti-
cial as a knowledge of the processes by
which, through the ages, the mighty
fabric of civilization was built up.
The present cannot be understood
without the Past-it is, in fact, a rid
die, an enigma. And yet, as matters
stand, pupils graduate from our Gram
