Sitting Bull.

A Canada paper, the Ottawa Citizen,
gives an interesting account of the pres.
ent position of Sitting Bull and his fol-
lowers. A British officer, Major Walsh,
is at present in charge of post in the
immediate vicinity nt Sitting Bulls ell
campment, near Wood mountain, and is
on the most friendly terms with the
"big Indian" chief. The major appears
to have decided influence over the red
men, and they all look up to him as a
great and noble chief of the White
Mother. He has contingent of twenty
picked men. as brave and as true as
steel. The Sioux camp at this point
numbers about five hundred lodges, re-
presenting nearly one thousand souls,
and is divided up at present into small
hunting parties. The old braves are
most peaceably inclined, and there would
be no fear of a breach of the friendly
relations existing were it not for num-
Der of hot-headed young bucks who make
depredatory incursions across the border
and sometimes go SO far, when favor
nble opportunity presents itself, to steal
horses in Canadian territory, and escape
to the United States. The old braves
deprecate this, and in every way endea-
vor to prevent it. In fact, they invari-
ably make good the value of the horses
stolen. To show how strongly they feel
on this point, Inspector Allen says that
the day before he left party OF Sioux
we're out hunting when they came across
young buck with number of horses in
his possession, evidently making his way
to the United States. The father in-law
OF the young man was in the party, and
wanted to know where he got the horses.
He replied that he got them as present
from white trader. The father-in-law
quietly limited that he handled the truth
carelessly, whereupon the young buck
grew impertinept. The father-in-law
considered this sufficient justification
for him to dispatch the young man to
the happy hunting ground, and with
ont further parley dashed his brains out
with war club.

Words Of Wisdom.

The king is the least independent man
in his own dominions the beggar the
most so.
Whoever considers the weakness,
both of himself and others, will not
long want persuasives to forgiveness.
"He who says Jump + doesn't tear
his mouth, but he who jumps breaks
his legs" is q proverb of the Caucasus.
Deceit is the false road to happiness
and all the joys we travel through to
vice, like fairy banquets, vanish when
we touch them.
No man can be brave who considers
pain to be the greatest evil of life nor
temperate, who considers pleasure to
be the highest good.
Merit has rarely risen of itself, but a
pebble or a twig is often quite sufficient
for it to spring from to the highest
point. There is usually some baseness
before there is any elevation.
There is many wounded heart with.
out contrite spirit. The ice may be
broken into thousand pieces it is ice
still but expose it to the beams of the
sun Of righteousness and then it will
melt.
An infant. prattling child. dying in
it's cradle, will live again in the better
thoughts of those who loved it; and
plays its part through them, in the re-
deeming actions of the world, though its
body be burnt to ashes, or drowned in
the deepest sea.
Hope is the ruddy morning ray of
Joy, recollection is it's golden tinge !;
but the latter is won't to sink amid the
dews and dusky shades of twilight; and
the bright blue day, which the former
promises, breaks indeed, but in another
world and with another sun.
Some feelings are untranslatable no
language has yet been found for them.
They gleam upon us beautifully through
the dim twilight Of fancy, and yet when
we bring them close to us, and hold
them up to the light of reason, lose
their beauty all at once, as glow worms,
which CLEAN with such spiritual light
In the shadows OF evening. when
brought where the candles are lighted,
are found to be worms like SO many
others,

True HerOism,

Let others write of battles fought
On bloody, ghAstly fields,
Where honor greets the man who wins,
And death the man who yields;
But will write of him who fights
And yanquishes bis sins,
Who struggles on through weary years
Against himself. and wins.
He is a hero staunch and brave,
Who fights an unseen foe,
And puts at last beneath his feet
His passions base and low,
And stands erect in manhood's might
Undaunted, undismayed-
The brayest man that drew sword
In forsy or ia raid.
II calls for something more than Drawn
Or muscle to o'arcome
Al enemy, who marcheth not
With banner, plume and drum
foe forever lurking nigh,
With silent, stealthy tread,
Forever near your board by day,
At night beside your bed.
All honor then to that brave heart,
Though poor or rich he be,
Who struggles with the baser part
Who conquers, and is free:
He may not wear heros crown,
Or fila hero's grave;
But truth will place his name among
The bravest OF the brave.

FALL RIVER FINANCIERING.
The Latest DefauIting Treasurer,

FALL RIVER, MASS. April 23.-The commit.
tee appointed to wait on Hathaway, the de-
faulting treasurer of Sycamore and Borden
City Mills met the latter this morning, but by
advice OF counsel he refused To make further
disclosures. This determination is bitter
disappointment TO the directors who expected
TO find Hathaway willing To Straighten out the
affairs OF the corporation involved, and there
is general indignation on the part of the pub
lie. Ii is quite evident that Hathaway pro-
poses TO take advantage of all legal technical
ltleS in order TO escape criminal indictment.
Chase will evidently take the same course
and ii is believed should Chase be held liable
for irregular notes he will be forced into bank
ruptcy instead of being arraigned for Grim
inal offence. Chase claims that he received
of Hathaway but comparatively small sum,
and that through the duplicity aud preyarica-
tiOns of the latter he had involved some of his
tChaSeS best friends. The banks in the va
TiOuS cities holding the irregular notes have
sent officers here who are making attachments
i'm Providence, New Bedford and Boston The
