Suxday School Concert On Sunday last, was largely attended tbe churob being crowded, so tlmt many were unable to obtain Mnts.- Tlie concert -as excellciit UirouRJiout, ami it wnawlth dif ficulty the audience could refrain from giv ing evidence of their feelings In Cict on on or ttt-o occasions the "house came down' in spite of Uie day aud tM jdacer quite iociferottsly. "What are you going to do, brbtliei ?" by Mrs. S. S. Van Dersal, vas exoisllcntly reiHleml. Tlie recitation, Yottrintnlssion," by' Alo IcCulloch, was a gem, both as to di 'sentiment con tained ad the . mauiierk Hp Vt-i'f oCiu de- 1 livery 4kI1s Angle U one of the brightest and svrOStest HEthf girU attending rl tchool T!mj .duette, "baby "' blue eyer-to have been sung by MIas Lottie and Master H i ram Grittlii, was omitted,. ow ing to the ill ness of Miss Lottie. Xexc was the recita tion, 'the tentpest,!" by Mitster FverettE. Smlth,4 which wa way vtip- Everett, al ways does his part well. ..Tlie solo which followed, ''tlie rescue." by L. B. Royal, was well received. Lew is a good "lngist. and he don't care wh knowstt. 'To-dny and to-morrow," a recitation. by John Qoltra. was another gem. and Johnny did himself credit In Its delivery. "Shepherd of thine Israel, lead ns, aqnartett, in which Miss Alice Griffin, Mrs..VanDersal. Messrs. H. Skeels and B. A. Cathey par tkipated. was excellently rendered. The exercise, reasons tor early Iconversion," participated In by thirty pupils was good, although two or three ot tlie thirty were absent, owing, we suppose, to sickness. Tlie duet, "sutler tlie children," Ac. by Angle McCulWh and Master Edgsir Gil bert, was the cap slienf of tlie evening it was grand, and had It been given any where else, tlie applause following Its con clusion would have been overwhelming. Tlie mutation, "only a woman." by Miss Eunice Cliue. was well delivered;' hut as Ennk-e hau't a strong voice, she could not be distinctly hoard in every part of the house. The solo, by Miss Alice Griffin, "He shall feed IIU flock," was an exquis ite piece of music clwrmingly rendered. The recitation, "profanity," by Master Fred. Miller, was well spoken, and showed care in preparation. A coUrction for the benefit of tlie Sunday School was then ta ken up. resulting In a total of 3 25. Tlie noble antliem, Hark, tlie i Song of Jubi lee," was then snnr by Miss Alice Griffln. Mrs. Van Dersal, Messrs. Skeels and Cath ey, followed by the 'Sunday Schoo' War cry," in winch t lie whole school partici pated. The officers, teachers and friends of the Sunday School may well feel proud of the success of this the second monthly concert, for although the first was good, the second concert was ait Improvement, and we hope the third will be still better. atKl that they may continue to improve and grow lu Interest each mouth. We be- lieve however, that hereafter these concerts should be given in the afternoon instead of evening, tor reasons that will readily occur to all who have given the snbject a tliought. Tlie next concert will occur on Sunday, March 5th. ' i .- , : oQUtRCELs fotsON. In some parts of the State farmers have resorted to the use of strychnine to destroy those little pests, tlie squirrel. It is charged that the poison has been so earelessly placed that in many instances valuable animals have been poi soned. It is asserted; also, that well train ed dogs wlll eTy aqittrreb more" efTcct pally and more satictoiiiy tliat ytho use of tlie poison, without any of its attend ant risks or unfortunate consequences. We do not know how this may be. but we quote below tlie onlyjaw on the statute . ' .t . . i l: fc DOOKS oi uregon reiauiiK to uiu stiiijeci. which we Rave seen.

Briers & Brothers, the great seedsmen of Rochester, Xew York, have sent us a novel and face tious display card just issued by them which they call "Briggs ft Brother's Great Toma to Race.' The succulent vegetables are mounted on horses and are supposed to be coming in on tlie home stretch. There is the grand stand filled with a vegetable audience ; a big beet has a turnip in his hands, as time-keeper, and the whole thing is full of life and fun. The tomatoes come in their order as estimated by this practi cal firm,' who are from years of actual test upon" their own soils, well qualified to judge of the character of vegetables as well as flowers.. They rate tlie various tomatoes in the order of their excellence (and we may "here say tfiat. aiculUuttf o4' .foorticul-.. turisu may accept "the vpinlen-aa -shi as follows: Green Gage, CouqueronfE-celsior,- Trophy, Defiance, Gert.

Brlggs Bros, enjoy arf en viable reputation upon the productive qualities of all seed sold by them, and es pecially upon tomatoes and onions. They grow to ml toes exclusively for seed, sell no tomatoes In tlie market, and save seed from tlie finest specimens only, being unlike otlier seedsmen who purchase their seed from those who grow tomatoes for market, and who, late in the season, when the price ot tomatoes is low, save their seed from tlie late, poor, unripe fruit. Seed saved from the first clusters is superior to that of toma toes t-iken from the branches. ;,Tbey person" ally select their own stock seed, and thus" Improve every variety they growi s.m Aboct CtDER. it is asserted by those who have examined into the matter, that sweet cider affords as much nourishment as the potato, and apple eaters are rarely if ever bilious or dyspeptic "Tlie apple is a tonic in quality," says a writer "ami contains phosphorus in greater quantity than any other vegetable. This being tlie case. It U a most fitting diet for Americans, who live in such a state ot mental excite ment, ami are so indisposed to bodily exer tion. ' It feeds tlie brain, stimulatrs the liv er, which is just what we need. Sweet cider, taken iu moderatioi of course, is the most healthful beverage, known. In tlie older times cider was as plentiful in New England- and Xew Jersey a3 rftt or dinaire In France, and the consequence of its now being so little used is seen In tlie decay of a vigorous people into irritable, nervous whisky drinkers. It has virtues which give it a great and specific value in one of the most painful and distressing dis eases to which the male sex. Is subject. When children ask for apples, give them as many as they can possibly manage. Eat them in abundance yourself, and we will have less bilious and dyspeptic people am on?r us. Dangerous. We are informed that a number of the little shavers of our city are in the habit of congregating at tlie railroad depot on tlie arrival of trains about noon each day, where they endanger their lives by jumping on and off the track in front of moving trains, jumping on the cars as they move off, ami, when under full headway, jumping from the train. At different times boys have run narrow escapes, their lives being saved by a hairsbreadth, so to speak, by tlielr temerity, yet the little seal tawags continue their pranks despite all that has hitherto been done to canso them to desist. It wonld be well for parents to look after this matter, as it is altogether probable if they do not, tliere will be a fu neral in some household ere long.' Small children, those especially who take their dinner to sehool with them, and spend their "nooning" almost entirely at or about tlie depot, should be warned, by both teachers and parents, not to go near the depot at train time. Attention to this matter now may save some bright, but reckless littl? boy. from being killed outright or made a cripo for life.' ' ' f ' 1 ; ,'. . f Brass Band Organized.

A TltCE STOR-Yl It was on tlie morning of the 10th of October, 185 , that a small party ot hunter left the city of I - in the Territory of Colorado, to enjoy the ex citing chase of the buffalo. We had received information that from ninty to one hundred and fifty mile south from D there were - largo' herds. Our party consisted of two gentlemen from the State of new York, whom I ca'.l .Bob II and Joe W- . ou their fiwt hunt on the great plains ot the West; the rest of the party, to the num ber of about fifteen, were more or less hunters .vho had seen life on the p'atns, among which wan your humble servant, better known among oiy comrades by tlie euphonious title of -9 Wild Pete," and last, though not least, was the guide (who joined particularly at my reqnest a man small in stature, of a modest and retiring nature, one whom a casual observer would ? never suspect of being a man ot note, ii( fact no other than the famons Kit Carson, trappei and guide. Another of our party was a man of large and to ail appearances powerful fra me; bombastic "and forward in all where there was no danger, t He went by the name of Dan, which was all I knew of him at the time- nt joining us, and from the first was jdkliked by all the party or at least was not: much in favor with them, for the genuine plains, man in, as a generality very, reticent, ; -fXVe traveled troni; fifteen U twenty miles a day,, nsually encamping about four o'clock in the afternoon. -It was at the close of o ar second day's trav el, when, we were about tliirtv-ti ve miles from D j tliat t the " following incident took place:' x -r We had already selected a place to encamp, and Kit ani mywlf rode" oat vo recouiioiire the country gud I ascer tain if there were, anyi Indians iu our vicinity; everything was unusually quiet, and an indescribable wne of danger seem ed to oppress me. J I did pot speak ot it, tor I was sensitive to ridicnle We rode in silence for about two miles, when my companion cam to a sudden bait, and also at the same moment niy eye caught si2ht of the cause: for di rectly on bur front, abouVoite and one- halt miles away, was a artv of about one hundred of tfW"redaC sw h - Z,i W bether we bad beeo discovered or not we could eot tell, bat immediately dismounted, causing our", horses to lie down in the grass while my companion weu, lorwwa on loot to recounoitre. At the end of about an? hour ha return ed, informing .methat fit; was a war party of ArrajialhieS;, and whether they had discovered us or not he . couli not tellj however, w ret.crccd to can: p to pre ar defenfes as well as circumstances would permit Li ca?a cf an attach. , As we were quietly apFreaehius tl;e camp we bcad Dsu'u voice dircoursing with lus usnai bravado. He was boast ing pf his : first Tfthot-at the rods, tbe story of. which I 'trill ; briefly state In substance; as follows - - - ' It appears that the year before, ac cording to his statement, was his first appearance on the plains arid that the hight of his ambition' was to shoot one of the red-skin, consequently be took the first? opportuaity that cfie?d to gratify bis ambitioo desire; and it was not far trota the placo where we rere then encamped. He wa &a1r fbile or so outside tbe lii.e of iarch of tl.e party wlien he aecideotiy 'discovered a yonng Arrapahee womitn itb a child, an4 deliberately sfeet'tbetfi thifV his wicxed ambition. ; - ? .This i was brfctTy the ifcyrj. fjut it Wa toll) with a great amouiit'cX brigadocio aiid so diygue tivuz, in itft.4etail,- ktwe imiSediately; Mvance t itwr "crer. if ttie camp, 31$ JJai Jjecame slteiii uj remained tfius. He nc'er would give veovto any of Lis gasconade' iii the presence of Kit Or myself, ''f' v '?.;: WTe -then informed the -party that we had discovered a large war party ot the tribe and that we most . place tiio camp in as good condition to resist the attack, sliould oi bo made, as possible. . It was arranged, that Kit ? and myself should guard the camp against surprise and we were, to take turns in watching. At midnight Kit came and awoke me, tor I had slept and informed me that he thought there were Tndians about. We ' both, aitcr a scout round our camp, and. discovering nothing remained on ps until about three o'clock in the morn-' ing, when to our surprise, and without any warning as to hia presence, an Iu diau Ktoud betore Tia, ituiding in his hai.d a white flag. We instinctively drew our knives before we discovered his peaceful attitude. .In tolerable English he asked for tlie chief of tlie party. I referred , him to f Kit. He then informed ns that ho was , Little 15ear,;the chief ot the party of Arrapahoes whom we had seeu the night , before, and that he had come to demand the murderer of the wife and child of one of his braves ,the year before. He then described the murderer and the circum stances all so complete that we knew it was Dan demanded from us. ; He also said that it he was given up peace ably that hi people would not molest us, but ve could proceed upon our trail peaceably; if not they would attack and destroy our whole party. Of course we could only refuse until we had the de cision of our band, and answered that we should give him au answer when tbe sun shou'd have ; lighted .the earth for the space of one hour. " Accordingly we returned to camp and announced the alternative; that for ourselves we would stand aloof from the consultation and would abide by tlie decision ot the party, regardless of onr own views. We knew it would be hard to consign one of our comrades to certain death at tlie hands of a relentless enemy, -yet he had deliberately murdered the wife and child of au Indian warrior and bis life was demanded in - return; theie was justice in the demand, and, further, tlie salvation of our entire party depended upon our complying with the demands of the chief. . -, . .. After having placed the matter be fore them, Kit and I witlidrew to let them consult in tlie matter and to de cide iu half an hour the con ire to be pursued and to let ns know the result. At the specified time they inforned us that they had decided to comply with the demand of the chief. : : , , . , Dan siormed, cursed and ' wept by turns and showed himself what we had believed him to be, an 'arrant coward. I was sorry for the poor fellow and be? lieve I wou'd Iiave fought for him cheerfully had the party so decided, but it was to be otherwise. ', '--. -? -! '-' , Shortly after sunrise the chief sent to hear onr deeision; and we informed tbe messenger that we had. decult d to give them : the prisoner outside of cattlp in one honr, aud tliat we be allowed to depart upon the trail to Uw hwuting ground without further molestation' : Little Dear objected to tbe departure part of our terms, Mating that it woftld be jiecessary in order : to appease his warriors that we should witness tlie ex ecution ot a paleface for the crime of murder, as a warning to 'the rest of the party of white hunters as to Uieir fate if they should bo tempted to commit a like offense; be said in a fair fight with his braves it was ' ho t crime ' and that they would not have 'demanded tlie prisoner, but he raid that in the present case it was hnprovoked - murder, in all of which, -we -aoqnieeed because we could do no better;' W6were "not cer tain of Uie good faith of the chief, and of course retained our arms and agreed that in case ot treachery tre' would sell bur lives as1 dearly as we could So, at the ex piratioii of tfe time gi veni Bob II- and Jee VV-i---condticted the prisoner outside of the camp to the place agreed upon ! and delivered bim into the hands of the Indians who were waiting.'' i We;were aware?

' Arpearaaee mt Tklasra at ZanaUbar, . . When yon land at Zanzibar the first thing that will strike you if a stranger, is the extraordinary number of negro boys, with little more dress than a mer maid, that will request in toicrab'e English, the honor ot being your guide for the dayj The next thing that will strike you is that it is much warmer on shore than on board, and you wilt natnrU ally put up your umbrella as yon saun ter after your youthful guide. Some of the houses, you will bo surprised to find, have neither doors nor windows, for the best dwellings are built around an open court, the windows, or rather airholes, opening on to that. They are built on the heat-resisting principal, the walls being many feet thick and of s-. lid ma sonry. Every floor even, is ot great thickness and is composed of wood and stones and lime, and the toot is flat, and forms a delightful retreat in tlie cool ot the day, when tlie sun is getting low in tlie liorizon, and tbe gleaming breeze begins to blow. 5- The sliops are mere open sheds, where, amid his wares,' squats the" Hindoo or Bauain merchant, calmly chewiuz opium or ' smoking his habble-bttbble. If you need refreshment yon can have it at the fruit stalls, pine apples, mongoos, citrons, oranges, pomolocs, guaves, green cocoa nuts ; anything in fact, except, apples and gooseberries. The; streets are nar row, winding and quamt and some of thecok the bazar for instance, very pic aresque.
