T., June 21, 1877. THE INDIAN WAR. There has been great excitement about the Indians in tlie last lew days up here, but T believe it is all over now. People were panic stricken and all rushed to Col fax for protection, when there was no real danger , Old Thunder, Chief of the Palou.-e, told tue, the first I knew of if. The trouble Is with Joseph's baud, in the Wallo'va valley, some hundred or two tntles from here. Sunday night, the 17th, ' tlM report came in after night that the In dians were upon us, and we all rushed for O. W. McQueen's place. The next morn ing the peopIe"bc'gan to start lor Colfax, and a good many went on to Walla Walla. The fewof us that remained started a run ner to Couer d'Alene, seven miles northeast of us; then we sent another to Palouse Oityv fifteen miles south. The runners came back and reported all quiet. The Chief of the Couer d'Alenes sent a messen ger over to us, and-told us if there was any danger t he would let- us know, and come over and help us. This was on tlie 18th of . the month. On the same, evening there came two Spokane Indians to us, who re ported that the hostile Indians were within twenty-five miles of us and coming straight for Pine ereck. Thus warned, the balance f the' settlement, to-wit : eleven women, twenty or twenty-five men besides the chil dren, started for Colfax at sundown. We had only ten guns and a limited amount of amcnotiHion. Some ot us thought it was all gammon, and didn't want to go, but did go with the rest. I, with a few others, wanted to go to Hangman's creek, where the Couer d'Alenes were, and stay with them.' Besides the Couer d'Alenes, there are the Palouse from the mouth of Palouse creek, a large number of Xez Perces and Spokaaa, a number of Yakiinas and mem bers ot other tribes, aW gathered there to dig camaa and run horse races the annual custon for years. And at tlie present time, while I am writing this, they are gathered there' in large numbers, and ail are friendly. I have talked to some of them they pass fey . my'-'bkrae every A&y, and a good many stop While wo were absent at Colfax, t&e Chief sect sone t bis men over to watch oar crops, awl to keep- any ill dis posed' persons from plundering our houses and-driv'm off our stock.. There were a few things taken out of our house by some ene. There are always few in every In dian tribe that will steal anything and cv- vrything they can get their hands on. After we had all left, the Couer d'Alencs sent us word to come back, and if we were afraid, to come over and camp with them, and they would look after our crojs, or, if this didn't suit, we could stay at home and they would come over and camp 'with us. The most of us are at home at work just as though nothing had happened. People who are talking of. coming to this country, need not be deterred from coming, for there is no danger. If we that are here are not afraid to stay, they certainly can come and stay with us. THE CROPS Look fine here. We have grain heading out. We expect to get from forty to fifty bushels ot wheat per acre. The only pest we have is the squirrels, and we are killing them off by the thousands. We confident ly expect to ;et a good price for our grain. We anticipate having a good time on the FOL'KTII OF JULY. Wc will have a bis dinner and invite the Indians over to help us eat it. From the report south of Lcwiston some forty or fifty miles, they have had some trouble with the redskins, and have hud a fight or two. but to what extent I do not know. If there is any more news I will report in duo time. J. M. Pi:orsr. Heroism or Moiileneirrlu Women. Montenegrin women have the same passionate attachment with the men to family and country, and display much of the came valor. CJoptchevitch sup plies two most remarkab'c examples. I A fistcraiKlivMH"t)rothers. the four of cour e wen arnica, are making a pil grimage or excursion to a church. The state o'f war with the Turk being norm al, we need not wonder when we learn that they arc attacked unawares on their way, in a pass where they prrceed in sing'e tile, by seven armed Turku, who announce themselves by shooting dend the first of tlie brotheis and danr gerously wounding the second. The odds are fearful, but the tight proceeds. The wounded man leans against the rock, and though he receives another and fatal ' shot, kills two of the Turks betore he dies. The sister presses for ward and grasps his riHe and his dag ger. At last all are killed or both sides excepting herself and a single Turk. She asks fur mercy, and he promises it, but names her maidenly honor as the price. Indignant, and perceiving that now he is oft" Lis guard, t-he ttahs him with the dagger. He tears it from her hand, they close, and she dashes the wretch over the precipice into the yawn ing depth below. The second anecdote is i ot less singu lar. Tidings reach a Montenegrin wife that her husband hasjuet been slain by a party under the command of a certain Aga. Knowing the road by which they are traveling, she seizes a rifle, chooses her position and 6hoots the Aga dead. The rest of the jtarty take to flight. The wife of the dead Aga sends her an epistle. "Thou hast robbed me of both my eyes. Thou art a genuine daughter of Tscrnagora. Come to-morrow alone to the border line, and we will prove by trial which of us was the better wife." The Tseruagorine ap peared ecpi!ped with the arms tf the dead Aga, and alone, as she was invited. But the Turkish woman had thought prudence the belter part of valor and brought an armed champion with her, who charged her on horseback. She shot him dead as he advanced, and seizins her faithless antagonist, bound her and took her home, kept her as a nurse maid for fourteen years, and theu let her go bnck to liar place and people. LET TT1EJI ALOXE. Nevcr try to rob anyone of his good opinion ot himself. It is the most cruel thing you can do. Moreover it is by no means doing as yon would be done by. Crush a woman's self-esteem, and you make her cross-grained and snappish. Do the same with a man, and you can only make him morose. You may mean to create a sweet, humble creature, but you'll never do it. The people who think best of themselves are apt to be the best. Women grow pretty in believ ing they are so, and fine qualities often crop out after one has been told one has them. It onlv gratifies a momentary Fpite to force your own unfavorable opinion of him deep into another s mind. It never, never, never did any good. Ah ! if this world, full of ngly people and awkward people, of silly people and vain people, knew their own deficiencies, what a sitting iu sackcloth and ashes we should have? Tho greatest of all things that a man can possess is a satisfactory identity. If that what he calls I pleases him, it is well with him ; otherwise, he is utterly wretched. Let your fellow-beings alone, hold no truthful mirrors before their eyes, unless with a pure intention to up root sin. So may a-'tnirror without a rlaw never bo prepared for you. In those things which we canitothelp, may we ever be blind to our own Bhort-com inga. We aro neither ugly, nor awk ward, nor uninteresting to ourselvcf, if we do not know it. A fool may have the wisdom ot Solomon in his own con ceit. Let him be, and the path to the Crave will be easier tor him to tread ; you will be no worse, lie much better. Leave every man as much self-esteem as his conscience will allow him to cher ish. It may be pleasure to enlighten people as to thsir taults of roind and person, but it is certaiuly not a duty. It isn't blighted ambition and blasted hopes that make a young man want to shuffle off this mortal coil and lie down in tho silent grave and bo at rest, so much as to suddenly remember, a he pauses at the door ot the opera house with Laura -on his arm, that he forgot to get tickets, and that his pocket-book is at home in the hip pocket of his every day trousers. According, to- Russian laws, it is a crime for two brothel's to marry two sisters. In TJlab a man can marry halt a dozen sitters, and have the old woman thrown in to bons the job. A Roai IfcOUB TirorsAxn SIit.es Loxg. The Rev. J. T. Gracey in a letter irom Liberia, Africa, tot lie Chris tian. Advocate, says: . There is a .-roarl road ("path") from Cape Mount back through tlie country of tlie Uocziee, said to be wide enough for even vehicles to travel over, and through this region horses thrive, being in abundance as one recedes from the coast. Here, then, is already one bioad highway after the fashion ot the country, back from this high and comparatively healthy starting point at Cape Mount. "This is tl-,e road to Egypt," said the Rev.

"What do you mean?" said we. "That road," said he, "extends un broken from that po'u.t four thousand miles across the continent of Egypt. I saw a Moslem, recently, who had just returned over it from a pilgrimage to Mecca." A Nevada col-rt. 1. C McKen ney, District Judge of the Fifth District, comprising the counties of Lander, Nye and Churchill, will shortly take his de parture for Stillwater, the county sent of Churchill county, to- open the regular term ot the court in that county. The following are the ceremonies incident to a terra of cou't in Churchill county : The Judge arrives at the county seat, puts up his team, and sends an Indian runner in search of the Sheriff and County Clerk. The Sheriff and Clerk arrive, and the Sherift standing up in his stirrups, proclaims: "Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye, the District Court of the Fifth Judicial District in and for Churchill county is now open." Then the Judge hitches up his team, gets into his buggy, and says: "Mr. Clerk, this Court stands adjourned for the term." Then the Sherift and Clerk and Indian sit down in the sagebrush and play Indian poker, and the Judge bids them a pleasant good-bye and drives on. Austin, Rectilk. Everlasting Fence Posts. A cor respondent of the TVestcrn Rural says : I discovered many years ago that wood could be made to last longer than iron in the ground, but thought the process so simple and inexpensive that it was not worth while making any stir about it. I would as soon have poplar, bass wood or quaking ash as any other kind of timber, for fence posts. I have tak en out basswood posts after having been set seven years, that were aw sound when taken up as when they were first put in the ground. Time and weather seems to have no effect on them. The posts can le prepared ,for less than two cents a piece. Foi the benefit ot others ' I will give you the receipt : Take boiled linseed oil and stir in it pulverized char coal to the consistency ot paint. Put a coat of this over the timber, and there is no man that will live to sec it rotten. On the 30lh of April Hon. Alex. II. Stephens of Georgia argued a case in the IT. S. Supreme Court.

Sentinel. 1 lie Walla Walla atchman gives Saturday a prominence in these apt terms . A Saturday can never pass, un less we bestow upon it a mark of recog nition. It is a sort of a winding up day, the "doxologer" of the week. Our country friends come in town, rain or shine and all is buzz and bustle even if there isn't a cent 6cnt. With most of them, their credit is good which is equal to cash, only not quite so handy. Last Saturday was a big, large fine day. Our farmers looked jubilant and who can b'ame tbem ? A bounteous harvest blooms befora every door, the price ot wheat is way up and they feel ditto. Let them keep that "feel" and make hay while the sun shines. The quantity of food from a well-fed apple tree is altogether superior to that of a half-starved tree of the same variety. Very tew farmers think it profitable to bring poorly-fed beef to market, and there ought to be very tew who think j- it profitable to raise poorly-fed apples. Let ua have fat apples as well as fat beef. Feed the apple trees. Top dress with ashes, muck, or barn manure. Apply superphosphates, bone dust, and potash salts. M.
