Indian Troubles.

Various rumors are going the rounds
about trouble that is brewing near
Glendive between the Indians and
stockmen. About 800 Indians are out.
it is said. and have refused to obey
the order sent them to return to the
reservation. Troops have therefore
been despatched to compel them to
come back. Other rumors have also
been coming in of trouble on the buff
falo range between the Indians and
hunters. in which there is likely to be
more or less bloodshed before the mat
ter is through with. In one case a
party of, q hundred or more Indians
burned a large tract of prairie to pre-
vent the hunters from getting near the
buffalo. The hunters were, of course,
much exasperated and many threats Of
violence were heard. It is said that
these difficulties are only a repetition
Of those that occur, every year.

Conventions.

Lest our readers may have forgotten
the dates fixed we will again call at
tention to the fact that three conven.
tions for Gallatin county are called for
short time hence. The republican
convention will meet at Bozeman on
the 18th, and primary caucuses are ex-
pected to be held before that date in
each precinct, to elect delegates for
the county meeting. BY the demo.
cratic committee precinct caucuses are
called for Friday. the 18th inst, to
send representatives. to the county
convention. which will meet in Boze-
mali on the 18th. A peoples conven-
tion. independent of any party, has
been called to meet at Livingston on
Saturday of this week, to which repre-
sentatives from the various precincts
are supposed to be sent. AL these are
preparatory to the election of dele
gates to represent the county at consti.
tutional convention, to meet in accord
ance with a resolution of the legislature
in January next. 1t is important that
the county bo properly represented at
that assembly and to insure such a
representation these preliminary prep
arations are made. It is well known
how Livingston has been considered
iii the apportionment of delegates to
the two party conventions. Opinion
among those who have given the mat
ter any thought is divided as to wheth-
er it is best to represent as apportion-
ed, represent according to our voting
strength, OF not represent at all. |

Amusing BllInders.

Blnnders on public occasions are often
as Notifying as they are amusing. For
instance
At military dinner in ireland, the
following was on the toast-list May
the man who has lost one eye i'll the
glorious service Of his beloved country
never see distress with the o'her." But
the person whose duty it was to read
the toast accidentally omitted the word
distress" which completely changed
the sentiment, ard caused no end OF
merriment by the blunder.
Another instance may be quoted, il
only to show how careful people should
be in expressing themselves on public
occasions
A church in South London had been
erected, when a dinner was given, at tlip
conclusion OF which the health Of tie
builder was proposed when he rather
automatically replied that he was "morc
atted for the scafiol1 than for public
,peaking."

The True Story Of the Cuckoo.


Our correspondent whose interesting
communication on cuckoo lore appeared
last week il at fault in stating that tie
| Young cuckoo turns ont its fcllOw-ncst-
linGs from q love Of supremacy, and that
the young birds expelled are smaller than
itself. Bcing.usualIy hatclIed before the
cuckoo, they are geTtralIy Of equal size,
| aud rather larger than the intruder; and
their expulsion is necessary for his due
nourishmcnt by the miniature foster
I parent. In fact when, MS sometimes
happens, two cuckOOs are Matched in ono
nest they cndeayor each 10 cxpel the
other; and in one case observed by Herr
Adolph Muller, and described in Ucr
/poipgiSchc Gartcn for October, 1863,
the smaller succeeded in cxpcliing the
larger. But we will JET Mrs Blackburn
relate her own account Of what she saw:
The nest (Which we watched last June,
alter finding the curkoo's egg in it, was

beside that Of tine cuckoo. II was below
a hcmhcrbu,h, on the dccliyiiy OF Il

in Moidart
At one visit the piJ its were found to
be matched, but not tie cuckoo. At the
next visit. which wa after an interval Of
fory-cight hours, W found the Young
cuckoo alone in The nest and both the
young pipit5 lying Iowa the bank, about
ten inches from tLr margin Of the nest,
bnt quite lively after bciug warmed in
the hand. They were replaced IN the
nest beside the cuckoo, which struggled
about TIL 1t pot it. back under one ot
them. when it climbed backward directly

tine l,ipit from its back Oh 90 the edge.

woven and, stretching it, wings apart

over the margin 50 far That it. struggles

or two, feeling back with It's wings. rs If

The Snnatnr,s Wife.

A lady correspondent of the Cincin'
natl Commercial gives the following In
cident as having occurred in the Senate
gallery:
Two women struggling for a place
nearest the door got into fight One
was Senator's wife. Not being able tt
crowd into the gallery set apart for Sen
ators' wives, she pushed through the
throng at the door Of the ladies' gallery
'IIet me in," she demanded of the door
keeper, and handed him her card. NJ
response Senators have passed as
MANY as sixteen ladies apiece into tho
Senatorial gallery, consequently people
who belong there are pushed out. She
was very angry. 81 wonder how many
Senators here own to having sixteel
wives" "Madame, take your arm'
away! You knocked me in the chest.
expected to find ladies here. | neyei
was in so uncouth set. Keep you
elbow out of my chest, madam! | wont
stand such treatment! / will stick pr
in you"
To the surprise and amusement Of by
ISLANDERS, the Senator'S wife produced
pin, and threatened TO bury it to the
head in the first orc who touched her
Presently a surge in the crowd threw
lady against the defiant Senator's wife
She turned with her pin ready to pu
her threat into execution, but was me-
by long bonnet pin in the hand Of The
intruder. "Only in self.defense," The
lady said, laughingly. The Senator
wife continued her abuse and vulgar lla
rangue until the Sergeant-at-Arms had t.
be called. In the excitement she slipped
through the ungnar1ed door into the
gallery, and was lost in the inner tIrong
and got by fraud what we who wert
abiding by rules had b. wait for, some o
us. for over two hours"
