Minister Pierrepont's Son ON His
Muscle.

This community was somewhat astonished
| last week on hearing that case Of assault had
been heard by some country magistrates, the
chief sufferer by the melee being son of the
American Ambassador. Oa Inquiry at the
American Legation yesterday l was told that
young Mr.. Pierrepont had suffered no serious
damage the worst being painful injury TO lis
thigh.
Mr.. Pcrrepont, desirous OF having his son
Edward, who is DOW in his eighteenth year,
prepared to enter Yale College, happened to
God the teacher he wanted in the Rev: Nj.
Seymour, an Oxouian, who holds the rcctory
OF uolme. Pierrepont. On the morning OF Suu-
day, April l, party, five 10 number, repaired
to the church where the rector preached, and
after the close of the service we're returning
home. A little way from the church door,
and in full view Of the village. eleven roughish
young men from Nottingham were engaged Ia
ioot-raciDg. They were stripped to the waist
and bare-lcggcd, and the rector was consider
ably scandazed at such an exhibition on Sun
day in front OF his church. lle (the rector)
was walking somewhat 10 front Of the young
men, and approaching the racers, spoke sharply
to them as set OF "raScals,' and ordered them
to dcsst. The fellows, who were perhaps
somewhat heated with drink as we'll as the az
dos OF competitlou, said they had come out
there to race, and meant TO race. One ct
them started, and as the rector stood in the
way, ran against him, and, | believe, knocked
him down.
The youog men came up at that instant, and
young Pierrspont, seeing his superior thus bus
tled Immediately dealt the racer a vigorous
blow, which felIcd him. Another rough cana
up and be too was knocked down. Tho third
came, and this time Pierrepout vas knocked
down, tho blow being on the nose, which blei
freely. Pierrepont recovered himself, but Il
stone was thrown by one of the assaants,
which made an ugly wound on his thigh. Seven
of the eleven roughs we're now on the spot, anil
the Oxford tutor, Mr.. Shariugbank about
twenty five years Of age, spraDg to Plerrepont''
aid The battle Waxed fierce, but the remark
able part was that the rector, man somewhat
over fifty. and his son, aged nincteen, did not
interfere in the leasl--tLc rector apparently
not thinking it dignifed to fight on the Lords
day. and bis son, studying for orders, having
similar sc.uples. Another Of the party also
held ,sIuof and 1t was a fight OF two against
seven Pierrcpont, though young IS powerful.
and at the trial the roughs could not help say
ing that they admired his pluck. The roughs
were fined two guineas each.--H u. COnWdys

AN INDIAN DUEL.-A citizen OF Sioux City,
who has spent much tine among the agencies
of the upriver Iodians, says it is amusing, as
we'll as touching, 10 hear an Indian sing bis
death song. Our Informant was at Standlos
Rock few months since, and one day he OBJ
served al unusual stir among the Indians.
Soon Two bucks came forth from different lodg-
os each with gun 10 his hand. They walked
out some little distauce from the rest OF the To-
dians aud took posts distant from each other
about fifty yards. At given signal they turn
ed, raised their rifles 10 their faces, and fired.
Both fell, wouuded-one fatally. They WcEa
Immediately surrounded by friends, who madn
40 particular effort to bird their wounds, bur
simply stood around talking among themselves
and gesticulatiDg while the wounded Indians.
as soon as they fell began the death song.
There was little music in it. 1t was sort OF
dcep.down, unnatural tone of voice, kept up
for half a minute or so at time. when 1t would
cease, and the sufferers would in the luterin,
make a confession of all tie evil deeds they had
ever DONE They would tell OF the massacrca
in which they had been engaged; how macy
scalps they had lifted from the heads OF white
people; the number Of ponies they had stolen.
together with all sorts Of important and unln-
portaut evil doings in their lifetime. This ac-
complished they were ready to give up the
ghost On,ahn Herald.

\ GRAND DAUGHTER or BISHOP JOINS
GovERNEss ArTuE WHITE House. We havo
quite an interesting item through letter re-
cciYed by friend from Washington. When
Mrs. Hayes arrived 10 Washington from Ohio,
Miss Virginia Peyton, highly educated young
lady of twenty, aud grand daughter Of tbs
late Bishop Johns, Of Virginia, living near
Washington, determined, being teacher py
profession, to apply for that position to tho
Presidents children. She had no Influential
friends, and so determined, without letters of
recommendation, to apply ir person. So one
morning she went to the White House and 10
quircd for Mrs Hayes. The Presidents wife
received her very kindly aud hearing her bus
incss promised, after !o'g conversation, 70
make irquircs and communicate with her
forthwith. The result Of her inquiries was SO
favorable that the intrepid young lady was en-
gagged as govcrncss for her children at haud-
some salary.-Suunt0n |mdtcator.

TUCsoN, A. T, August II, 1871 To TIE PUBLIC:
 Owing to the recent inventions en- anating from Department Head Quar- ters, Prescott, A. T., containing grave lnsinuations and modest charges, touching upon the administration of Indian affairs by me at San Carlos, during the last three years, 1 have thought that it would be of interest t0 the public, and justice to myself, to submit the following correspondence for general information and popular or disapproval:

Wild Roses.

l walked in the joyous morning.
 The morning Of June and life, Ere the birds had ceased to warble
 Their sweetest Of love and strife. I walked alone in the morning,
 And who so glad as I When saw the pale wild roses
 Hang from the branch on highs But the day was all before me,
 The tumult Of youths delight Why bear a burden Of roses
 Before the calm of the night? So kissed the roses and lightly
 breathed oftheir breath divine, IL is time when come back, said, To make the sweet roses mine. l returned in the joyless evening; I Iyearned with passion then, For the pale and peerless roses
 Inever should see again. For another had taken delight
 In color and perfume rare, And another hand had gathered
 My roses beyond compare. l may wander east. may wander west Wherever the sun doth shine; l never shall ind the wild roses, The roses thought were mine.

FROM Prescott Enterprise, August f:
 The recent frost made sad havoc with the crops in Williamson Valley The crop of Hon. L. A. Stevens is said to be completely gone up. We regret to learn that many of the sheep in the mountains are dying. The excessive drought is the cause assigned. The dry spell still continues, and it's effects are disastrous. There seems to be now no hope of a good crop in Yavapai county this season. From Mr :. C.
