years of age, having with her a little

complexion unmistakably betokened

The Maine Election.

The election in this State occurred
on Monday Sept. 9th and the result,
especially the strength displayed by
the greenback element, has astonish-
ed many politicians. There were
three tickets in the feld, namely: Re-
publican, Democratic and Green
back or Nationals ticket, and al
though Conner, the Republican can
didate for Governor, has large
plurality he lacks considerably Of a
majority and the choice for State Of
fiicers is therefore thrown into the
legislature, which has about twenty
opposition majority; but as fraud is
alleged in ward 4, Portland, by which
four Republican members were
wrongfhlly defeated, and as it is
claimed that some Of the hard money
Democrats will act with the Repub-
licans they may be able to CONTROL
the choice. Powers and Hale, Re-
publican candidates for Congress in
the Fourth and Fifth districts, were
defeated by the Democratic Green
back candidates.

in an engagement with the hostiles,
the young man was killed. The sad
news in due time reached his mother.
She was almost disconsolate in her
grief.With true maternal efection and
she at once resolved to search for her.
sons child, and, if possible, find in
it an object upon which she might
bestow her care and motherly love.
Forthwith she journeyed to Mime
sofa. The difficulties in the way
formed no barrier to her New Eng.
land energy. Her diligent inquiries
along the Northwestern Pasifc rail-
road brought to her acquaintance
man who had known her son. For
$50 he offered to find the squaw who
had been the sons wife. Without
going into details Of the search, it is.
sufficient to say that the tribe Of In,
dians was found, and with it the
squaw and the child. When the la.
dy first saw her grandchild she
thought she conld discern in his fea-
lures a resemblance to her son, but
when. the little one was in the midst
OF number Of Indian children. it
was hard to discover much difference.
Nevertheless, the grandmother of
the dusky little half breed was bent
On having him brought up under the
gentle influences of G Connecticut civil
lization and she quieted her compunc-
tions of bartering in human flesh by
the exigencies Of the case and the
gift of 6 sacks of -four to the bereav-
ed Indian widow. The old lady de-
parted with her new found treasure,
as happy as boy with new toy.
She fondled the Sioux with indiscrib-
able affection, and the little chap re-
sponded by making his doting grand
ma buy him all the peaches and
pears that the train boy offered. The
picture of youth and old age seldom
has more romance done up in
couple than was here represented. It
will not be surprising one of these
days to hear of that cultivated little
savage pulling with the Harvard
crew.

Fuel for the Prairie Farmers.

Mr.. Geo. G. Clarke of Kasota
has given considerable attention to
the question Of providing fuel for the
farmers on the treeless prairiies. and
has himself planted over seventy
thousand trees in Murray county this
season. He has however another
plan which will meet the wants of
those who are destitute Of fuel while
their timber is growing, which is to
plant the ordinary sun -four and
burn the the stalks. He has shown
us one Of these flowers which meas
ures three feet eight inches IN cir
cumference, the stalk on which it
grew being some twelve feet long and
over three inches in diameter. By
cult1vating the plant the same as corn
IS cultivated, an acre Of ground will
produce twelve cords of these stalks.
which burn readily and make very
hot lire and the growth Of an acre will
supply any farmer with sumfc lent fuel
for winter. The sun flower seeds
are excellent for poultry, and are
even preferred to corn. This is a
matter worthy the attention Of all
farmers who are living where timber
IS scarce. Mr.. Clarke has raiisedl a
number Of bushels Of the seed this
season on his farm in Kasota.

Specie payments were practically
resumed last Monday. Greenbacks
can now be exchanged for silver
dollars, which are receivable for Gus
toms duties. Secretary Sherman be-
lleves that in few days the premi-
um on gold will be entirely wiped
out. He bases this on the theory
that the coin thus paid out will re-
turn with regularity through the
custom houses, and that as their will
be no demand for gold for customs

The possibility of an insurrection
among the natives in India, protok-
ed by Russian intrigue, and in the
end promoted by Russian arms, pro.
duces an uncomfortable degree of
uneasiness in English circles. The
English authorities in Calcutta, even
more than the home government,
appreciate the gravity Of the situa-
tion. With the memories of the Sc
poy rebellion yet fresh, the degree
Of confidence to be placed in the
fidelity of the Indian army, in case
the czar succeeds in forming a close
alliance with great outlying tribes,
is q subject il which Englishmen
are more intensely interested than
they care to make manifest. The
result Of the British mission to the
ameer of Afghanistan, is awaited
with feverish impatience, and with
ill-concealed fears that it will prove
too late. It is an awkward and diff
fcult piece Of diplomacy. That willy
prince will be at no loss to discern
the interested motives of his
eleventh hour friends with their
overtures Of friendship and good will,
after they have failed to humiliate
him by cutting off his subsidy,
A similar vague feeling Of appre-
hension and uncertainty as to the
result Of the Russian embassy to
Cabul impels the London Times to
s'trammel up the consequences and
declare that a treaty between the
ameer and the czar will never be
permitted by England, The strong
probability exists, nevertheless, that
such a treaty has been signed, sealed
and exchanged. tits evident that
the Muscovite stole a march on
the Briton. While forced to
withdraw Golden Horn a
Russian column was at the
same time quietly penetrating the
wilds Of interior Asia, and John Bull
knew nothing Of the affair until ap-
prised that his traditional enemy was
poaching on his preserves. While
the czar was being forced by Eng
land to relax the grasp Of his right
hand upon the Balkan peninsula, he
covertly reached out with his left for
territory of far more vital Importance
to British interests and British su-
premacy. IF he has succeeded in
winning the ameer, we shall see "big
trouble" The policy of the Indian
government for many years past has
been peaceful and non aggressive; a
policy which to the oriental mind is
quite unintelligible, except on the
supposition Of waning power. The
main thing England has to fear is
the dissemination of disaffection a.
mong the feudatory courts through
Russian influence, exciting native
cupidity and Matching schemes aim
ed at the destruction Of British pow
er. If the latent quarrel between
England and Russia becomes com
plicated by the intestine divisions of
native Asiatic princes, espousing the
cause Of the respective principals, it
may, among such inhammable ma
terials, speedily assume apalling di-
mensions. Pioneer Press.
