The City of Norfolk has appealed from
the recent decision OF Judge Prentis

Shall a diploma or academic degree
be given for proficiency in the science
and art Of agriculture? This question
is being considered in all seriousness
by the ancient English University OF
Cambridge. AS farmers cannot be
made by the use of libraries and labor
atories alone, it is understood that a
degree would be conditioned on GER
tain term Of residence and actual prac-
tice on farm. In America agricultur-
al colleges with model farms have
long been in operation, and although
still under challenge in some educa-
tional circles, they are doubtless con-
tributing to raise the standard and dig
nifty of the farmers life, and to put
the most important Of all branches of
productive industry on basis of intel
ligence anda self-respect, with reason
able promise of increasing profits
through improving processes.

Mills House. Number Two, a home
hotel for men of small means-it will
accommodate six hundred of them
was opened in New York the other
day. Only a few steps from it is the
Bowery, where there are many other
cheap lodging houses; but the Bowery
landlord charges twenty cents for a
dirty bunk in a sitting loft, while
that sum at Mills House pays for a
neat, well-ventilated, single bedroom,
together with bathing facilities and
the use of a fine library and reading
and smoking-rooms. Moreover, al
though the chefs salary is ten thou
sand dollars year, generous and
palatable meal costs only fifteen cents.
In this, or in Mills House Number
One, a man can live in cleanli-
ness and comfort for sixty
five cents a day, and still have the
pleasure of knowing that, so carefully
systematized in every detail of the
great enterprise, his host is losing no
money. That, indeed, is one of the
most commendable features of the
whole admirable scheme-that it mar
ries generosity and common sense, and
proves that philanthropy is never SO
successful as when planned on business
principles.

respite OF half an hour and then the
attack was renewed, fercer than ever.
But the soldiers had settled down by this
time and the attack was easily repu1sed.
-Four times more the attack was renewed,
but each time It was repulsed with vigor,
and at last, about 8 o'clock, the fight hav-
ing lasted three hours and a half, the
main body Of the Indians seemed to With
draw. From time to time afterwards 8
few shots were fired from the woods and
We're replied to by the soldiers, but all
semblance Of an organized attack was
over.
Early in the fight the steamer Flora left
the bay and steamed q away toward
Walker, leaving us all alone to resist the
attack or be driven into the lake The.
Flora, under orders from Marshal O. Con-
nor, proceeded at once to the agency for
the purpose of obtaining reinforcements
from Lieut.. Humphreys little band Of
twenty men, who are encamped there
Lieut.. Humphrey refused to leave camp,
saying that he had been ordered to re-
main where he was by the general and
that he would remain there until ordered
elsewhere by the general, a course which
Gen. Bacon commends.
Directly after the Flora, the Chief
pulled away from the bay and started
for town. The excuse her captain gives
IS that Col. Tinker was obliged to send a
telegram and was forced to go at once to
town. A. ID ~ y.
Beaton, Knappen and myself lay on the
shore for several hours waiting for a
steamer to arrive to bring us back to
Walker. We expected a dispatch boat
early IN the afternoon, but it did not ar
rive until after o'clock. AS the boat ap-
preached the shore it was fired upon by
lnolans concealed in the trees AS soon
as the hrst shot was fired the boat turned
ana dashed away around the point and we
never saw it again. With the coming Of

sr In Search of Indians.
The path led out of the clearing to the
east and after rounding the point ran
along the shore Of the lake and through
the woods again for matter of some
two miles. Where the path ran along the
lake shore it was crossed by an inlet
some fifty feet WIDE. This had to be
forded and every man emerged from the
water wet to the knees. Col. Sheehan
objected to crossing the stream and
turned back, but the others all went on.
Three small Indian villages were ex-
amined, but no bucks were to be. seen
anywhere. There were plenty Of old men
and squaws, but no braves.
No braves being found, the return was
made. after a short rest at the last of the
three villages
Arriving at the clearing Col. Sheehan
was found in possession of prisoner who
had given himself up. He was a young
brave who had taken part in the rescue
of Bug-ah-msh-ge-sh and he was sent
aboard the Flora in charge Of Deputy
Morrison. At the same time Hospital
Steward Lawrence was sent to the boat
in charge of two men who had developed
chills and fever. Marshal O-Connor and
{ Correspondent Morton also went aboard.
The other correspondents were about to
take the boat when a shot was heard
from near the house, followed by two
others in quick succession from the woods
and then sharp long volley from the
same direction.
The first shot fired was an accident, and
it is due to that accident that the entire
command was not wiped out to a man.
Sergeant Kelly was instructed to dismiss
the company for dinner. The men were
drawn up near the house and ordered
to stack arms. One Of the recruits failed
to turn the safety catch on his gun and
as he did not properly stack it, 1t fell to
the ground and was discharged. The
ambushed Indians thought they were dis
covered and the two signal shots were
fired, closely followed by the full volley
from the three sides of the clearing. In
an instant the soldiers had their guns and
fired q volley before they broke for shell
