A Nertlier-Th I hnrnrfrr of flr. I.e-Depre
clnilona of Ihtt Kiiim.
The following extract from a private letter
written by an officer of the army stationed at
Fort Bill, Indian Territory, tinder date of
Deo. 11th. 1870, will be of interest:
Wo are having a "norther," bnt I imagine
yon are an much in the dark concerning the
nignificance of the expression as I was the
first time I heard it. To fnlly appreciate
what a coither ia, yon fibould be dropped on
a good, wide, level ptairie, twenty or thirty
miles from any eminence, trees, or what
might act as shelter; time, reveille; en route,
north. In this situation yon would fnlly ap
preciate what a norther in in about fifteen
seconds. Owing to the diflloulties to be fiur
monnted in the way of time, distance, gravi
tation, and the approaching holidays, I am
afraid you will bavo to be left in Philadel
phia, and with the combined energy of infi
nite faith, boundless imagination, and inex
haustible credulity, produce a mental picture
that may porsibly portray the idea.
The prevailing winds of this country are
southerly generally southeast and bring ns
the warm breezes of the Qnlf. Consequently
we wear the mauie clothing the year round,
provided it is summer clothing. The day
will be as pleasant as your beautiful June
weather, about sunset, but jt.st as the great
illuminator is giving a farewell touch of gold
to the tops of the purpled mountains, while
the smokeless prairie fire, awa)' off against
the sky, makes one swear by Shadraoh,
Meschaoh, and Abednego, and everything is
as quiet as though the sun was going down
never to rise again, there will be a little
leaden cloud, perhaps, off in the northwest.
Should you see such a cloud, and be away
from shelter, it is time you were ascertain
ing what sort of stock yon ride, and how
many more observations the bottom of your
flask will stand. If yon happen to be
"home," not a moment should be lost by
your "special artist" in transferring the wood
pile from behind yonr house to the interior,
for long ere it ought to be dark, a norther
will be rattling down with a madness as if it
had a million furies behind, lashing it on
with hail and sleet. Northers are not the
clear, cold, bracing winter winds of the
north, laden with the snow-flakes; fall
ing so softly and putting their
victim into a cheerful, dreamy sleep as they
chose him as their sacrifice. They are the
furious north winds, rebellious brothers of
Boreas, conquered and expatriated driven
from home never to return till they have
- washed out their sin in the vapor baths of
gulf or ocean. You can imagine what a tem
per they are in, and how remorselessly crael
they are to any unfortunate whose life or hap
piness may be at their mercy. They do not
numb: they hurt, that is the word "hurt"
just like toothache hurts, with no undulations
of pain granting once in awhile
an imaginary reprieve. As for
defending one-self against them,
it ia perfectly impossible, except behind a
fortification wall of eighteen inches, and a
roaring fre constantly replenished with fuel.
Buffalo robes, blankets, clothing, or anything
that offers a passive resistance is of no avail.
Their only redeeming feature is their shorS
life, for they seldom live more than three
days. But you will never know what a
'norther" ia till you encounter one, and I
can only mention as an addition to my wishes
for many returns to yon of Christmas, and
an unlimited number of New Years, that yon
may also rest in profound ignorance of the
"norther." -
I sea Commissioner Parker has been giving
our neighbors, the Kiowas and Cauianches,
quite an unflattering testimonial in his late
report. bat a pity to treat the "poor In
dian" so! Some people ungenerously call
them "poor beggars," in a tone of pity that
modulates itself into contempt. "If they are
poor, is not that their misfortune? And whose
fault bnt the white man's, driving away their
buffalo with hia steam-horses? Beggars!
They will never beg, if a godd opportunity
offers to steal. Not petty sneak-thieving, but
wholesale or highway robbery. They are
accused of killing people, too. Once on
a time the contemporaries of J. Fennimore
Cooper might have been so addicted, but
now they never do anything else than
murder. They are as vile and cowardly
as they are mean and villainous-looking.
They don't even profess to be friendly to the
Texan?, and they claim Texas to be out of the
union still. In fact, they go so far as to syy
it never was in, and murdering any one
found unprotected in Teaas is perfectly legi
timate slaughter. "Heap scalps good medi
cine." A 4heap" bullets' applied internally
would be much better medicine. In the win
ter, when grass has become hay, their ponies
have to be foraged, and they are "good
Indians," living up to their treaties so far as
to eat all the rations the Government will
give them or they can beg, forage their
stock, and restrain from hostilities that are
not le affaire (Thonnevr. In the spring, when
grass is good, and their ponies can take them
where game can be found, they
are off like the wind, till they're on yon like
a whirlwind. To give you an idea of their
method in conducting private vendettas, I
will relate a case that has occurred lately.
Satank, one of the Kiowa chiefs, lost a son
in a fight with Captain McClellan last spring
three hundred and fifty Indians against
sixty soldiers. In order to assuage the pater
nal grief incident to such a calamity, last
bummer, at the head of some twenty of his
tribe, he attacked a mail-stage going to Texas,
killed two men, and one of the mules; the
other mule and the mail were captured. Ac
cording to the custom among some of the
redskins, he brought his captures here. The
mail sav$ enclosures was given np, and the
mula taken away from him. lie got his
mad up at this, also his back, and
''made .big talk" of what he's
have to do to concilitate the
fchades of hia departed son and the mule. lie
told np here, over in the store, only last Fri
day, how he did it, exhibiting one of three
calps he and his band had taken of three
men tbey had killed down in Texas.
Last night news was brought by a messenger
from that State of how this murder was ac
complished, and whom' these detached capil
lary excrescences once adorned. It appears
Satank's Biblical education has been sadly
neglected, or the tree did not bend as the
, twig was inclined, or the admonitory fate of
Ananias and Sapphira for tho moment
slipped his ruind, or be did not cross his
"breath and give as an addenda, "the truth,
whole truth, and nothing but the truth," for
a rancho was attacked at night, with
the following 1ms of inmates: One man
killed and scalped, two children killed out
right, a boy aged two pierced with a lance
through the shoulder afterwards escaped
and two women pierced with arrows, scalped,
end left for dead. A little while after the
rest of the inhabitants were butchbred. These
things are better listened to than read; one
hoars much that cannot be written. Th next
day three mote were kill o J and scalped while
travelling south in a wagon tlioy were cattle
droveia returning from a successful trip to
Kansas. The Icrlians got their scalps, nn
Hhtank Raid, but they did not get the $':Uo:
thfy had on their persons.
The little disagreement amontr the Demo
cratic ollicehohlers In Connecticut ha been re
moved, and the Hartford I'ost days Lienteuant
(iovernor llotchklss has been mollified, and
baa withdrawn hia refusal to accept a renoml
nation. A lady was fatally poisoned In Mount Plea
sant, Iowa, on the 7tu Inst. It is the old story
of carelessness. She was ill, and asked her son
to hand her the medicine prescribed for her;
there were two bottles, neither labelled, and the
eon handed the wrong one.
Forrest acted In Chattanooga, recently, and
an envious Knoxvillo paper Insists that" when
he appeared on the F-taire, and manv of the audl
ei.ee saw that ho upon whom they looked was
not the cavalry loader, General N. B. Forrest,
the only jjreat man of tbe name of whrcm they
bad ever heard, they Jumped to their feet and
declared they had been sold.
