A Memorable Indian Fight. A sharp Indian tight, one of the most closely-contested that ever took place in Texas, was fought 011 the 27ih of January, 1851. Lieutenant Ed. Bur leson, with a detachment of cavalry, MAS 011 his way from Sail Antonio to Camp Los Ojuelos. When near the Nuces river, he saw three Comanche Indians on horseback. Taking eight men, and ordering the rest of the party to keep the road and move on, he pursued them. After running for two or three miles the Indians came up with eleven ol their band on foot, and prepared for battle. Burleson's men, who were old Texan rangers, moved up within fifty or sixty yards of the Comanche line, and open ed the fight. By some mistake thej dis mounted. The Indians charged, and a terrible hand-to-hand tight ensued. Shots were fired at the distance of a loot or two. The field was an open prairie, 011 which there was not even a bush for cover. It was a trial of strength, skill and courage. The rangers fouglu be hind their horses, shooting under them or over the saddles. Red men and white men, Colt's six shooting carbines and bows and arrows, revolvers and lances were mingled in a general melee. There was 110 shout ing, no maneuvering, but each man fought on his own '-hook," and for life. Many of the incidents of personal prowess would, iftheyhad occurred in a battle between mediaeval knights, have been celebrated 111 song and chronicle. A Comanche singled out Jem Carr, a cool, brave ranger, and charged upon hiui with bow aud lance. Jeui, with steady aim, fired at and shot him; then fired again, with the same effect. The Indian still advanced, shooting arrow after arrow. The arrows came with less and less force, until the last one hardly left the bow, as the plucky, de determined warrior fell dead a few feet from his white foe. Jem received four severe wounds. "It was like clock-work," he said; "every time I raised my carbine they stuck an arrow in me." lie had his carbine to his face, read} to fire, when an arrow, passing through the last joint of his right forefinger pierced the breech of the guu. Luckily the wood splintered and released his hand. Baker Barton, one of those in demitable spirits who are game unto the last, received three mortal wounds. He died on his feet, holding to the horn of his saddle. One of the coolest of the rangers was a man named Leach. His self-posses sion was wonderful. Burleson, seeing an Indian aiming a pistol at Leach, raised his revolver to shoot. "Don't shoot at him, Lieutenant,' called out Leach; "he's only blulllng. I've been watching him ; there is no load in his pistol." Finally the Indians tied, having eight wounded and leaving four dead on the field. They were so thoroughly whip ped thatj contrary to their custom, they did not take their dead with them. Two of the rangers were killed and several were wounded. A gentleman who visited the field thirty days after the fight found it covered with arrow s. Over two hundred were picked up on a space of less than one-fourth of an acre. Children. Bless their hearts, bow dirty they get their faees. A child with a clean face hasn't been absent from its mother's wash-rag five minutes. How pretty the hair of a child looks just after ithas be* n pasted down where it belongs by a couple quarts of soap suds. The little aprons of childhood—ain't they sweet with their checks of blue and big spots of gawm? The children's shoes, how cunning, with holes in the toes, run over at the heel, and every button gone off on a fly. But their stockings, wudgeted in a little wrinkled bunch between pluuip ankles and grimy knees, with "this little pig went to market" wiggling through the raveled Up; ain't they cute ? Their little pudgy fists, half the time grinding grief out from their eyes and the rest —well, who doesn't like to be pounded by a child's weak fist? What royal little cooks children are. Mud pies take on more fiavor from tiie loving pats of childhood than any vet eran can produce with the spices of the Indies. What questions a child can hurl at the head of wisdom. It can upset the theology of the world wilh one effort. How sweet the rosy lips of children ; girl children sometimes retain this sweetness. What an Indescribable conglomera tion of sounds a child's voice can pro duce, playiug the most heart-iending havoc with the nerve-cords of grown up humanity. The glories of children's laughter. It is infectious as the measles, breaking in spots all through the neighborhood. The wonderland all children dwell in; wouldn't you like to live it over again, and have perennial freshness constantly with you? Perhaps it is. Those childhood dreams, rooted in overplaying and overheating, but blos soming under the guardianship of an gels. These celestial beings must have curious fun crowding comical fancies into little brains. How wopsical a child can get the bed clothes. Alexander himself never could have cut the Gordlan knot, if it had been a twisted sheet around a sleeping child's curled form. No diamond ever dug from the deep est mine can show the lustre in a child's eye; that rcund, wondering, opal of brightness. Pet haps children's eyes are peeping thiough the cracks of the "pearly gates." Hbw lovingly the little arms of child hood twine about your neck and leave a nice bit of bread and butter on your coat collar, HUMOROUS. THKRK is a good deal of square com mon sense about the directors of a sav ings bank down at Marysville. They engaged a new cashier the other day, and the president said to him: Mr. Steele, your duities will be verv light, and the salary S4OO a month. Now, if you'll agree not to speculate in bonds, or gamble, or hypothecate the deposits, we'll double .the pay. Come, now, what do you say?" "I'm very much obliged to you, gentlemen," was the reply, "and I'll tlnnk it over and give you an answer in the morning." But he refused the otter, after all. lie said be couldn't be cramped down in that way. WHEN INDKKO! —A sailor belonging to one ot her Majesty's ships, coining ou board urunk, was met by the cap tain, who, addressing him sternly, said : "What do you mean, sir, by* be ing drunk 011 board ship? I won't have it, sir. And I hear besides that you've been drunk 011 shore. 1 won't have It, sir." The inebriated ta* steadied himself for a moment, and looking the captain full in the face, hiccupped out, "Well, if a man may'lit get drunk 011 shore, where is be to get druuk ?" HE was a simple sportsman who did not often go to church, but he had been much impressed with the parable ol Lazarus ain' Dives —notably with that portion of it In which the attention of the dogs to the cripple are set forth. Months after he went with his sh consins to a concert ill St. James' hall, and heard a man play the clarionet wonderfully. "What's his name?" lie asked. They replied "Lazarus." He pondered a moment and then muttered : "It would take a clever dog to lick that beggar." BYRON'S ideas 011 the subject of finance and education are very widely prevalent. He said once : "They say that knowledge is power. 1 used to thiukso;butl now know that they meant money; ami when Socrates de clared that all he knew was that he knew nothing, he merely intended to declare that he bad not a drachma In che Athenian world." A FRENCHMAN, living in Louisiana, whose wife deserted him, amused his neighbors by telling how ho got her back without trouble. "Did 1 run after her to come back?" he dramatically asked. "No. I did not run after her. 1 zhust publish in ze pandire zat 1 have drawn fifty thousand doliars in ze lot tery, and she vas back much quicker zan in no time.

Ochre tried on a pair of good proportions, for she is hardly a Cinderella. "Well!"exclaim ed Oehre, looking at.the mark, 1 knew, my dear, that you had a big foot, but I never supposed that you wore 40s!" DRIVING through Sackvlllc street, Dublin, the other day, 011 an outside ear, the wretched appearance of the horse suddenly struck me. I said: "Pat, you ought to be taken up for cruelty to animals, driving such an old screw as that!" "Be gor, sur," was the quick reply, "if I didn't dhrive that, I'd be taken up for cruelty to a wife and six children. "MARY, I do not approve of your en tertaining your sweetheart in the kitchen," said a lady to her servant. "Well, ma'am, its very kind of you to mention it; but he's from the country, you see, ma'am and I'm afraid he's too shy and awkward in his manners, ma'm, for you to like him to come into the parlor," replied Mary. A BIG six-footer was lifting lor all he was worth on a wagon-wheel which was stuck, when a little two-foot mite ot humanity, nearly as broad as he was long, and just out of long dresses and into pauts, with his hands in bis pockets and a swaggering air, sang out: "Mis ter, do you want me to help you ? I can grunt while you lift. Ax old beggar woman accosted in piteous tones the other day a gentleman who had been in the habit of giving her alms. "Alas, sir," she said, i am persecuted by bad luck, i had a blind child. She was my only means of support, and she has unfortunately just recovered her sight." "llow many rods make a furlong?" asked a father of his son, a fast urchin, as he came home from school. "Well, I don't know," replied young hopeful; "but 1 fancy you'd think one rod made an acher if you got such a tanning as I did from old Scroggins this afternoon. AX Irishman with a heavy bundle on his shoulder, riding on the front of a horse-car, was asked wiiy he did not set his bundle on the platform, lie reDlied : "Be jabers, the horses have enough to drag me; I'll carry the tundfe."

The American people fully believe in Hoi. tetter's Btomach Bitters, and there is a sub stantial groundwork for that beiie . They Lave witnessed and experienced its effects for over twenty-five years, and have found no reason to distrust one statement made in re gard to it Proofs have been brought home to their own hearths that it is a family medic ne which is of the utmo t value iu cases of ma laria, dyspepsia, debility, disordered condi tions of the iiver and bowels, and in a variety of other maladies. They have found it a com pr tent tonic, a genuine alterat.ve, and in coti trast.ng it with the many preparation-* ot the same class in tie market, they have willingly accorded it the palm. The correctness of their belief in its efficacy has received the strongest confirmation in expressions of opinion by medical men, and the approval of the press. DOMESTIC. ROOM DECORATION.— Fashion in dress do not vary more quickly than fashion In room decorations, and every month shows some new device for the bedizen ing of our home. Ills Impossible for people to adopt every novel freak in the matter of room ornament, and the best plan is that they should choose the ideas that are the most suitable to their taste and the most easily adapted to their materials and circumstances. We are learning that houses to be attractive should be individual; and we may rest assured that the fact that variety is charming is as true ol this as it is of tuauy other matters. If one Is paying a long round of calls and has the mem ory of six or seven drawing rooms, all pretty and costly, but all showing signs of having rather been furnished with regard to the taste of a lashlonable up holsterer than to that of their mis tresses, what a relief It is to enter a room entirely different, where every thing, however simple, hears the look of having been approved and chosen and arranged by one with a fine eye for beauty of color and form and a de licate instinct lor harmony of line. This art of room arrangement is one winch savts much money, for a v. ouian who owns it does not need to discard unfashionable furniture or out-of-dats ornaments, which would be a eyesore in many rooms. By her faculty of ar rangement she discerns just the place where ilie angular table will lit in and look well and appropriate and In what, corner tlie objectionable console will lighten the room by its glean, of mirror and gilding. Among the many pretty notions which have been lately intro duced Is that of "over doors." The de vices introduced for this purpose are numerous—stag's antlers, convex eagle mirrors, makes ol statues 011 oval vel vet shields, and even clusters of Jap anese or peacock screens. The fancy of a half moon shaped design in. Vene tian mosaic, sunk in a deep baud ot dark velvet, may be new to uiuny. and would have IH many rich rooms a very beautiful effect. The arrangement ol blue china, and shelves and brackets of eboulzed or enameled wood, always looks well and a plaster of frieze in basso relievo, as long Rs the door is wide, will be effective in many rooms; the ground of the frieze might even be colored of a faint green or blue, so as to give it the appearance of a Wedg wood plaque. If you hang a picture over a door, do not let it be a small wa ter color sketch or anything of that kind, so that Us beauty is entirely lost 011 anybody under eight feet high; the pictures that look best over dn>rs are still life pieces of flowers or fruit. IT isrxor NECESSARY to keep 011 tak ing this medicine continually, using a syringe, or dosing day and night for months at a time; the bow els are re stored to regularity, the digestion strengthened, the blood purified, tho bad breath made sweet by a short sys tematic use of Simmons'Livetg Regu lator; it leaves the system in a healthy condition after its use, which saves the patient from continual dosing.

"ISAAC MULLEN, "37tli and Lancaster Ave., Phila." IIIXTS about calcimining: Buy the best bleached glue, if the walls are to be white or some light tint (if dark it is immaterial, so that the glue i- clean), and use it in the proportion of a quar ter of a pound to eight pounds of whit ing. Soak the glue over night; in the uiornlng pour oil the water, as it sim ply swells while soaking. Add fresh water, put in a pail, and set that in a kettle of boiling water. When dissolv ed, stir it into the whiting, adding enough water to make it. after mixing, of the same consistency of common whitewash. It may be tinted anv color, and is applied with a whitewash brush. If the color is rubbed smooth iu a little water, aud then mixed with the wash it will be more even. If the walls have been previously whitewash ed, scrape away all that will come off, and wash with a solution of white vit riol—two ounces in a pail of water. The vitriol will be decomposed, form ing zinc white and plaster of Paris, to which calcimine easily adheres. It is important, to dissolve the glue in a hot water bath, for if scorched by toe great heat its tenacity is impaired or de stroyed.

MAULEY OK OATS.— hi regard to whether it is better to sow oats or bar ley, much depends on climate and soil. In sections where oats do well, and barley usually fails, it would be unwise to sow barley. Hut in those sections where the climate is alike favorable lor barley or oats, and where it is a ques tion of soil anil preparation, it may be observed : Ist. That oats sometimes do well on an old sod, but barley rarely, if ever, does so. 2d. Oats ripen later than barley, and while it Is very desira ble to sow oate as early as the laud can be got Into good condition, still you stand a better chance of a crop from late sown oats than late sown barley. 3d. Oats will do far better on low, mucky land, than barley. If such laud be well drained and in in good heart, and in flue, mellow condition —as after a well 'cultivated corn, potuto or root crop—a great crop of barley may some times be grown, especially if the land has been limed, but the chances are al together more favorable lor u great crop of oats. 4th. On low, mueky land, that is only partially drained, and which cannot be worked early in the season. It would be lolly to sow barley. If sown ui all, 1 would drill in oats, if the laud was dry enough to admit the use of the drill; or if uot, sow the oats broadcast, and if they could not be har rowed in, let them sprout on the sur taco, and roll the land when it is Arm enough to hold up the horses, it would be better, however, to summer fallow such land, working it thoroughly, and make it clean and mellow, and then seed it down heavily with timothy (and perhaps red top) next August. At any rate, do not sow barley. sth. Oats will do better on heavy clay land tha i bar ley. This is the rule. The exceptions are rare. The heaviest crop ot barley I ever saw was on a Held of heavy clay land that was summer fallowed the year previous lor wheat by three plowings, and then not sown to wheat in the lull, hut plowed again in the spring early and sown in barley. Everything was favorable, and the crop was immense. 6th. On weedy land it is better to sow oats titan barley. Drill in the oats deep and use plenty of seed. Roll the land eit her at the time of sowing or after the oats are up. Then when the weeds are sprouted, and are in the seed leaf, go over the Held once or twice, or three times, if necessary, with a light, line toothed harrow, for the purpose of killing the young weed plants. Oats can be harrowed with less injury to the platitsjdian barley. And if the soli and weather are favorable, and the opera tion performed at the right moment, thousands ol weeds will be destroyed, and the stirring of the ground will be lavorable to the growth of the oats. A WASH tliat would usually take all day with ordinary soap, can he done in three hours, with Dobbins' Electric soap, (made by C'ragin A Co., Phila delphia,) and it cannot iujure the flnest fabric. Try it. FLAX CULTURE. —A neglected indus try in the United States is that of llax growing and'the manufacture of linen. Forty j ears ago, nearly every farmer in the country knew how to raise and pre pare flax lor domestic use, and many of our fathers and mothers were to some extent engaged in this manufac ture. Now, however, besides a few small mills in New York and New .Jer sey, tfie business is given over to for eign manufacturers. Of the raw flax used by the crash and thread mills, 4000 tons ure imported, and 1000 tons are home grown, chiefly in the north eastern portion of the State of New York. A considerable portion of the imported is Russian, a part, that of the best, is Belgian, a part Canadian, and some Irish. What is required at this time i, that our farmers attend to the requirements of fertilizers and the ro tation of crops necessary to grow the liber to perfection, and then sow the proper amount of seed, two or three bushels per acre, pull it before over ripe, steep it, and spread it just long enough to separate the fibre completely, and the present demand for flax inav be easily supplied at homo. This is the first step, and if it can not be secured without the assistance ot a flax associa tion, such should be* organized. The importation of raw flax is about 4000 tous annually, at a cost of about sl,- 250,000, the importation of linseed about so,ooo,oooannually, and of linen goods about $15,000,000 annually.

A party which occupies a room for hours, breathing the same air, might bo com pared to a party of bathers drinking the water in which they bathe. The patient must keep the window of his bed-room open. Night air is fresh air without daylight.. In close, crowded rooms, the patient suffering from lung complaints breathes consumptively. By taking these precautions and using Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Pleasant Purgative Pellets, fully one-half of the cases of lung complaints would be cured in six months. For cough and irritation of the lungs do not always indicate the presence of consumption although it may result In that disease, and if consumption has al ready become deeply seated in the sys tem, this is the most efficient course of treatment that can be pursued outside of any institution that provides special facilities for the treatment of this dis ease.
