MICHIGAN AND KANSAS.
The third re-union of the Society of

it. There was a fine oration, sweet
music, Mid a merry dance, which was
kept up ntil this morning. W. 1L
Carletonredan original poem, entitled
T1TK VISION OF BATJBEKSE,
Who was one of the chiefs of the In
dians of Michigan :
In the years ere MUhlgan's verdure was soiled
by the settltr's smoke,
Ere the quick ear olthe forest had heard the
axe's stroke,
Before the shivering hill tops the scythe of grain
had shorn,
Or even the breast ol the valley the blade of
the plow had tern ;
When np the masts of tie forests, with green
sails all unfurled,
The squirrel safely clambered, as If he did sail
the world,
And chattered hit useless orders all through the
tranquil day,
Or stowed, in his lold by the tree roots, iis car
go oi nnis away ;
And when, from poid and river, the wild geese
rising high,
Stretched ont their ranks and harrowed the
wide fields of the sky ;
And when, in the blending daylight, repose the
owlet sought,
With eyen that were full of wisdom, and head
that was full of taught ;
And when the armies of nature began their
dally strife,
At the drum call of the partridge and the crick
et's chirping fife ;
Came, with his tribe of red men, the brave and
wise Bsnbeese,
That he and they might prosper, and live and
die in peace.
Came with his back to the sunrise, that he re
pose might find ;
Fled with the Nineteenth Century still thunder
ing close bekind I
And once on the bank of the lakelet, that since
hath borne bti name.
He lay, one dark night, watching his wigwam's
fitful flame ;
When out in the halls of the forest Le heard a
well known sound,
And knew the dreaded pale-face once more his
haunt had found.
The intruder is a hunter who has lost bis way
in the forest, and in the bluff, colloquial style
of the early settler, aiks for food and shelter.
These Baubeese gives him.
"And, as they lay in the fire light, and smoked
tne pipe oi peace,
lie told to the listening pale-face the vision of
Baubeese."
Long years Baubeese has mouldered beneath a
Western sky,
And near the home he planted, his pale-faced
guest d th lie ;
Long years of calm and tempest have slowly
come ana gone,
And still the heart of the nation bis steadily
beaten on ;
And still Jehovah's mandate forbids our race t j
rest,
And the jewelled hand of empire points to the
glowing West ;
And still brave Michigan prosper, and to the
ctntury wakes,
And flings about her abonlders her mantle of
the lakes,
And to her Western sister, wh o entered victory's
gate
Through the deep blood ef conflict, and the
sharp thorns of hate,
She gives a friendly greeting she sends a word
of cheer
And holds, as does a mother, her distant child
ren dear ;
And you who left her firesides, with spirit brave
and true,
And on these Western prairies have reared your
homes anew ;
Remember, through the future, whrever you
may roam,
Tonl! always meet a welcome, whenever you
come home t ,

says he is troubled with chills and
fever. He resided in Illinois from the
time he left Jacksonville until about
four years ago, when he was appointed
Chief Justice of New Mexico, by Pres
ident Grant, in 1868. He disliked

LETTER FKOM J186E APPLEGATE.
From the Oregon BaBst&.
The subjoined leftef will bt perused
with interest as much on account of its
authorship as because of the interesting
information it communicates. To the
few who may notf know the writer we
will say that there-is ndnaihe more
honored among the list of early pio
neers of Oregon than that of Jesse Ap
plegate, the Sage of Yoncalla. He
writes as follows :
Editoes Bulletin: The word "Ped
regal," like the word "Canon," has
been introduced into our language
from the Spanish, as designating a fea
ture of the topography more clearly
and tersely than any" word -or phrase in
our language. As by the word canon
the idea ot a ravine between walla of
rock is immediately conveyed to the
mind; so, by the word pedregal, we
understand an irregular volcanio sur
face of basalt, trachyte, etc., more or
less broken into upheavals from below.
and cracked and fissured in the process'
ot cooling. 1 just saw the term in
Lieutenant Ripley's history of the
Mexican war ; it has since been every
where adopted by the Corps of Engin
eers, and occurs frequently in the Ex
plorations for a Pacific railroad, or.
dered by Jefferson Davis, Secretary of
War in 1855.
The stronghold of tho Modoc Indians
is a pedreaalot tho most extensivo and
elaborate dsecription ; it occupies, with
but few intervals, nearly 100 Square
miles.
If you can, imagine a smooth, solid
sheet of granite 20 miles squaro and
500 feet thick, covering resistless mines
of gunpowder scattered at irregular in
tervals under it; that these mines are
exploded simultaneously, rendering the
whole field Into rectangular masses
from the size of a match-box to that of
a church, heaping these masses high in
some places and leaving deep chasms
in others. Following the explosion,
tho whole thing is placed in ono of
Vulcan's crucibles and heated up to a
point when tho whole begins to luse
and run together, and then is suffered
to cool.
Tho roughness of tho upper surface
remains as the explosion left it, while
all below is honey-combed by cracks
and crevices caused by the cooling of
the melted rock.
An Indian can, from the top of ono
of these stone pyramids, shoot a man
without exposing even so much as an
inch square of himself. He can, with
out duo haste, load and shoot a com
mon muzzle-loading rifle ten times be
fore a man can scramble over tho rocks
and chasms between the slain and the
slayer. If at this terrible expense of
life a force dislodges him from his cov
er, he has only to drop into and follow
some subterranean passage with which
he is familiar, to gam another ambush
from whence it will cost ten more lives
to dislodge him: and so on ad infinit
um. Jesse Atplegate.
The Ideal Farmer.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, in one of his
essays, thus portrays tho glory of tho
farmer :
"The nlory of the farmer is that, in
the division of labor, it is bis part to
create. All the trades rest at last on
bis primitive anthority. He stands
close to nature ; he obtains from the
earth the bread and the meat. J. he
food which was not he causes to be.
The first farmer was the first man, and
all historic nobility rest on possession
and use of land. Men do not like hard
work, but every man has an exception
al respect for tillage, and the feeling
that this is the original calling of his
race, that he himself is only excused
from it by some circumstances which
made him delegate for a time to other
hands. It he had not some skill which
recommended him to the farmer, some
product for which the farmer will give
him corn, he must himself return into
his due place among the planters.
And the profession has in all eyes this
ancient charm, as standing nearest to
God, the First Cause. Then the beau
ty of nature, the tranquility and inno
cence of the countryman, his independ
ence, and his pleasing arts the cares
of bees, ot poultry, ot sheep, of cows,
the dairy, the care of hay, of fruits, of
orchards, and forests, and the reaction
ot these on tne workman in giviug mm
a strength and plain dignity, like the
face and manners of nature, all men
acknowledge. All men keep the farm
in reserve as an asylum, where, in case
of mischance, to hide their poverty, or
a solitude, if they do not succeed in
society. And who knows how many
glances of remorse are turned this way
from the bankrupts of trade, from mor
tified pleaders in courts and senates, or
from tho victims of idleness and pleas
ure ? Poisoned by town life, and to wn
ices, the sufferer resolves : 'Well, my
children, whom I have injured, shall go
to the land, to be recruited and cured
by that which should havobeen my
nursery, and now shall be their hos

.Letter from Coes JBay,,
,Coos Bat, Jan. 27873. ,
Editor Sentinel .Times are rath
er lively at this point, owing toi the
shipment of coal, and lumber. About
fifteen vesaels permonth, on an aver
age, clear for San Francisco, The;Coal
fields are quite extensivetho certainty
of which time will fully prove. Wo
have three companies at work at pres
ent, and one, if not twomoreT-wilkba
in operation the coming Summer,
There are three sawmills on the Bay.
The one sitnated at Marshfield has been
idle for more than a twelvemonth, and
is by far the best of tho thro,e.
Timber near the streams, suitable
for logging purposes, has beqn culled
over to a considerable extent, but at a
little distance from tho streams are
some of tho grandest forests qf the
world, untouched.
The country is filling up with inhab
itants, and most of the unoccupied
lands will be claimed the coming Sum
mer, I think. ,
So far the Winter has been unusually
mild, with but littlo frost and no snow.
The rains have not been as plentiful as
common, and upon tho wholo wo have
a beautiful and quite healthy climate.
Yours truly, X.
St. Valentine's Day.
"Valentino's Day" will soon bo here,
and then a holiday for fun and kindly
thoughts. Many a missive will bo com
posed as tho studied task of a loyal
heart, and bright eyes will moisten and
pure hearts throb to receive them.
Many hearts will he made happier, and
we hopo none heavier, when this day
shall eome. But this time-honored
custom ha3 of lato years been much
abused. Too many have takon advant
age of tho day to vent their, dislike in.
sending miserable daubs, or vilo cari
catures, under thotitlo of "Valentines."
To the youths of Jacksonville I would
say, not one of you love to receive
these abusivo or ridiculous missives;
therefore, send none. If wo would
have our feelings respected, wo must
respect the feelings of others. Let
your fan bo innocent, and not at, the
cxpenso of the feelings of any one.
Life is short, and all have their sor
rows to bear : then let ns not add to
the burden, but rather strive to make
it less. Send your missives laden with
love, or a kindly token of esteem, and
young hearts will appreciate them. It
is well to grasp every opportunity of
promoting happiness, and of lessening
pain. Young lads and lasses, remem
ber this ; and when that day shall come
may no drop of bitterness mingle in
your cup of joy. Yedy Vikon.
