The Way They Churn in Texas.

L thought that l had seen good many
kinds of churns before / came down here
(says a New England Yankee, writing
from Texas -crank churns, dasher
churns, and chemical churns." But
[ Will now describe mode of churning
butter that will, think, make New En-
gland folks open their eyes. Common
ly, they do not makemuch butter In this
county, and the settlers here come to
get along without it; but, by the time /
had been at the poesta two orthree days,
began to want some butter on my
bread.
M had a herd of twenty-five Oh
thirty cattle, which he kept for beet,
and among them were number of mich
cows. Ed was hidden to set the milk
for twenty -four hours, and the next
morning NJ told Lizado, or Liz, u
as we called him, to churn. They had
done such thing as to churn butter be-
fore, it appears. Liz went out and
brought bag of raw hide, about as large
as a common meal bag. How clean it
was inside, am sure I do not know, but
he turned the cream into it, and poured
in new milk enough to fill it two-thirds
full, and then he tied it up with strong
strip Of hide.
M stood with broad grin on his
face. I was already too much astonished
to make any remarks. Liz now carried
the bag out of doors, and then got his
horse. Taking his Assoc off the saddle,
he made one end of it fast to the cream
bag, the other end, as usual, being at
tached to ring in the saddle. This
done, he jumped on the horse and tucked.
spurs to him. Away he went, and at
the first jerk that bag went ten feet into
the air, and fell with a squach, close up
to the horses heels. At the next jerk it
went higher still. He soon went out of
sight, with the bag dancing after him.
Sometimes it hit down alongside the
horse, and sometimes it struck slap on
the animals rump. NJ was con
vulsed with laughter-at me, I suppose;
for I must confess that this upset all
my previous ideas of butter-making. In
the course Of twenty or thirty minutes
Liz came back, the horse looking pretty
hot, and the bag very dusty.
"Es mantica" Cutters Gomez, said
he. Ed united the churn, and, sure
enough, there was good homely chunk
of butter in it; and it proved to be very
decent butter, too. I asked if that was
the way they always churned. They
said it was, and Ed declared it VI ga
dale asier than turnin' crank. j" 80 I
respectfully submit the "method to all
our good people up North. Everything
needed for it is a sole-leathes bag, a
clothes-line and horse.

A Curious Story.

There is tale told of sea Captain
who, in distant corner of the southern
seas, visited an undiscovered or unex-
plored group of beautiful islands. After
landing and trading with the gentle
natives, he was astonished by the visit of
white man, evidently person Of means
and consequence, who, after making
himself very agreeable, implored the
Captain to give him a story-book, if he
had such thing in his possession. The
Captain had, and, deeply touched by the
pigs and cocoanuts which the white
exile had given him, bestowed ON him a
copy of the ''Arabian Nights Entertain
ments." Overcome by the present, the
exile burst into tears, and cried, ''You
have saved my life, and given me rank
and wealth" " On explanation, he said,
81 should long ago have been eaten, but
while they were fattening me I learned
enough of their language to tell child
the story Of Little Red Riding Hood.
The child repeated it, and the whole
population were mad with JOY. They
had never heard story before. From
that day became great and honored
man. When they had national festival
[ sat on top of hill, and thousands
wept (while some elderly relative was
being cooked for feast) at the cruel
death of the grandmother as caused by
the wicked wolf. I had with me a vol
ume of Fairy Tales, and soon began
to set price on my performances. Red
Riding Hood is rather worn; I only get
a hundred cocoanuts for her now; but
Cinderella is still good for four pigs and
a turtle, and Beauty and the Beast
brings six or seven, according to the
quality. But with the Arabian Nights
!. I shall be able to go on accommodating
pork to the end of nv DAYS .

FROM THE FRONTIER.
Accounts of Indian Depredations Greatly
Exaggerated.

The following important and interesting
telegram from Gen. Whistler, dated at
Fort Keogh, was received at military head
quarters in this city yesterday:
FIT. KEoGH, June ia. O., De-
psrtment Dakota, st. Paul:-Maj.
Hges, with -four p companies, re-
turned last night from trip to Little
Missouri. Found stories about Indian dep
relations exaggerated. On the twenty
seventh ultimo two men were killed and
four mules stolen at Beaver Road station by
five Indians, whose trail came from and went
south. No Indian seen in any other point
OF the road No stations cleaned out, no
stock run off as reported by the superinten-
dent of the line, but mail-drivsrs and sta
ton keepers generally demoralized. Maj.
Ilges left detachment at O'Fallon's Lake
and at Little Missouri stations to protect
the route, and he thinks that the road is per-
fectIy safe, and that such fact should be
made public to counteract the evil effect of
the published exaggerations. Report will be
forwarded by mail. (Signed,

PLANTATION, saving: Early in this debate, exas-
perated and somewhat heated by what con-
ceived to be the unjustihable words ana
manner of the Senator from Indians, used
Language that upon reflection feel was unwar-
ranted, and that desire to withdraw my per-
sonalties. My relations with that Senator have
ALWAYS been SO agreeable and intimate, and
nv regard for him is so sincere that any inter-
ruption of our relations, however temporary IL
might be, would, am sure, be much more of
a source of regret to me than to him, and feel
ing as do. ask permission of the Senate that
NAV be allowed to withdraw the language
used, and that my records may be Sd modlned
as to omit any imputation that might seem to
be offensive or disagreeable to the Senator from
Indiana.
The presiding officer-The chair hears no OBJ
lection, and the request is granted.
Senator Misunderstanding could be more
gratifying to me than what have just heard.
and hope the withdrawal of the remarks Of
the Senator from Kansas will embrace anything
that said at the time of the occurrence to
which he alludes; and can say in response to
the Senator from Kansas that have always
cherished a sincere admiration for his talents
and personal attainments, for his high qualities,
and am very glad indeed this matter may
pass away as indicated. While cherish strong
convictions upon the subject, and may
utter them in way perhaps
that is somewhat stronger than
might do under cooler circumstances, yet |
can say to the Senator from Kansas and to all
other Senators that there is nothing more pain
full to me than to know that have wounded
brother Senator feelings.
The conference report on the bill relatlng 70
timber trespassers was passed.
Senator Window announced his desire to
speak upon The exodus question Monday.
Pending further action on the Mexican pen
sions bill the Senate went into executive ses-
sion and soon after adjourned until Monday.

pointments were made into the regular
army, and among them an old friend
and co1nrade of Mr.. Lincoln, who lived
in an adjoining county, was appointed
Captain in the Thirteenth infantry. This
man was a character in his own way,
but he would get drunk; and within a
year he was tried by court martial, and
convicted of lying drunk all day, while
in full uniform, in front of a whisky. den.
He was cashiered, but went at once to
Washington to get reinstated.a Tie
official approa ches to the Presidentwent
to pieces like cobwebs at the attack, and
he rushed into the supreme presence
and stated his case and claim with. as
little hesitation as he would have had in
stating the merits of hog case in Mr..
Lincoln's dingy old Office at Springfield.
The stack was SO udden, andthe eager
face Of his old chum was SO enthusiastic,
