children, with less than 400 war
riors. In 1858 august 81 they
lost over one hundred men in a
fight with the MaricOpas; the scene
of the conflict was on the GiIa at
a place now known az Maricopa
Wells. Various battles with the
COcopahs still further reduced the
tribe and the past year they have
been decimated by smallpox, a
disease hitherto almost unknown
amongst them, but frequent with
the Pimas. Though claimed as
wards of the government of the
United States, they have been left
to die by dozens for want of food,
shelter, medicines, sc. Never
was there in fact or fiction a guard
ian so cruel and inhuman to wards
so meek and pitiabIy deserving
of compassion, their guardian,
having appropriated their lands
and substance, abandons them to
sickness and death. They have
always, with very few exceptions,
been friendly t) the Americans;
have resisted temptations from
MeXicans, other Indian tribes, and
later the Confederates, to attack
our troops and the settlers these
pretended to defend, never be-
coming aggressive; but their
guardians favOrs are all reserved
for those who fight and cause such
waste of blood and treasure.
r The Yumas speak nearly the
same language as the MOhaves
and MaricOpaS, wear the same
style of dress, like them subsist
by agriculture, and in physical
conformation resemble them. The
YumaS and MaricOpas were orig
inally the same tribe; division
arose, caused by rivalry between
chieftainS, and separation was the
result.
Santiago, who was once their
chief priest as well as the head
civil chief was, in 1868, an old
man, upwards of eighty years Of
age, gray and baldheaded; he liv-
ed in the vicinity of Pilot Knob.
His opposition to the whites, so
far as his personal influence was
concerned, continued long after
his tribe sought to be at peace
and he himself had been, with
Caballo-en-Pelo, another chief, de-
graded.
Pascual the First, (not to be con-
founded with the present chief Of
that name) was a tall, fine-lOOking
Indian, six feet, two inches in
height and of an aniable dispo-
sitiOn, but wanting in gratitude,
as the circumstances of his death
prove, for though he had received
maryland constant favors from Mr..
L. j. T. Jaeger, yet one day as
Mr.. [. was returning home, rid
ing upon a horse through a mez-
quite thicket, he suddenly receiv-
ed three arrows in succession, two
wounding him il the neck and
one passing completely through
just below the ears. Turning i'll
his saddle, he saw Pascual and
spoke to him, but at the same
time raised and fired his. pistol
several times. Pascual was seen
to reel and fall, and as he was new
er seen afterwards, it was suppos-
ed he then received his death
wound. (This has since been con-
firmed, as we we are informed by
Mr.. l.
Vicente, is still well spoken of
by Mr.. Jaeger. He came to his
death in the disastrous battle with
the NIaricopas, in 1857, above re-
ferred to.
Antonio, whose Indian name
was Meh-dalk-ho-soh, was an old
warrior chief who lived at Pilot
Knob. He had a fierce look. gray
hair and if still living must be |

Thl o Weekly Trains.

VI The railroad authorities have discontinued
the running Of daily trains from Anderson to
SWalhalla, and will hereafter run tri-weekly
strains between these points, leaving Walhalla
! Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. aud
s,returning Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur-
Aays. We eannc! account for this sudden
change, and especially at IL season of the year
when both the freights and travel are active
We have understood the freights on this lin Q
have been better this fail than common, and
che, change will at once cut them of, and
inDrease the frcights over the Air Line Road
Cotton which would have been brought to
gARalhalla will bo carried to points on the Air
Zine, and mach, that s bought here will bo
hauled to that road. It will thus injure tho
income of the trunk road to Columbia and
Charleston, and divert trade from Charleston.
This, 1t seems to us, will be tho effect of the
change. while tho saving in expense to tho
road will be strifiug. We suppose the autori.
ties know best, but we can't SEQ it in their
flight.

Last Sunday and Monday, Bridge port was greatly excited over the discovery of d murder which was committed in East Bridgeport, July l2th. The man Frank DaSsett. and a woman with whom he lived, were arrested and committed to iail. charged with murder ing Frank Wcinbcckcr,a German 26 years of age. The woman Loreaa Alexander gave the information to thc police, oT the murder, and where the body could be found. Chief Marsh and Officer Arnold, went to Birmingham, and found the body in d barrel hid ill a deep rayinc. They brought the body to Bridgeport and it caused great excitement. The victim Wcinhccl;er. was invited to Bassctts home on the night of the murder to take lea. After supper Weinhcrkcr laid down and fell asleep. Ba.5sctt then applied rhloruform to the mans n0strils with s.ongc, sufficiently long enough to kill him. After he WAS dea Ba5sGtt and the woman put the body into barrel and took il to New Haven, and tried to sell it to Dr. Sanford of that city. From there it was taken o Birmingham. The only motive for the. murder was the amount that could be obtained for the dead body.
