Hut little is kngcrn among our people
of this country and- her valuable ox
hi bits a* the Exhibition. And again the
knowledge that this is a little progrre-
Nivo republic should enlist the sympa
thies of the ceneral reader.
The republic of the Orange Free
State i- situated on the northeast boun
dary of Cape Colony, and is bounded as
follows: On the went and northwest by
the territory clainieil for the chief,
Nicholas Waterbuer, under the name of
Griqualand West, and by Hotohuana
laud, respectively, on the north and
northeast by the Transvaal repnlvlio, oti
the east by the cclonv of Nntal, and on
the south by British Basutolaml, the
Native lveserve Lauds, and the Cape
Dolours! divisions of Albert and Coles
burg.
Its area is roughly taken to be about
70,000 square miles, but no accurate
computation has hitherto l>een made,
and the probability is that the actual
extent will Iv louud considerably
greater.

is the oldest European settlement in the
East. Settled by the Portuguese under
Albuquerque in 1511. The Dutch oo
cnpiod it and held it from 1641 to 1795.
T: • English took it an. held it till 1818.
It wax then restored t the Dutch. In
1824 it again became a British posses
ion, Great Britain having exchanged
Bcucooien ou the west coast of Sumatra.
The exhibits of the settlements vary
but little from each other —fibers, woods,
the latter for ornamental and building
purposes, nee, sugar and rum. The
gT; at virtue in the exhibit is the care
tak.-u in the flection, tho neatness of
their arrangement, and the interest
shown, an 1 the energy displayed by
th- people at such remote distances in
striking so boldly out into the competi
tive field of international thought and
practical effort.

New Zealand forms a group of islands
iu the south Pacific ocean belonging to
Great Britain, extending from thirty
four defines to thirty-two minutes south
latitude to 166 degrees to 177 minutes
east longitude. They consist mainly of
two islands, separated at the nar
rowest passage, twenty-five miles,
by Cook's strait*. Length of tho
whole group from north to south,
1,200 miles, with au area of 105,115
square miles. New Zealand WAS first
discovered by Tasuiau in 1642, and upon
this French geographers have called it i
Tasmania, and on the fiag flying in the
British section, where are to be seen the
products of New Zealand, in large letters
may be read Tasmania. Cook's visit i
gave it prominence in 1769 and 1774.
The first permanent settlement was made
in 1815, when a missionary station was i
established. In 1840 it was erected into i
a colony subordinate to tho colony of i
New South Wales, from which it was j
separated in 1841 and plaoc 1 under it i i
own independent governor. The his- !
torian speaks thus of tho New Zealand- <
ers, seemingly iu a happy vein. " Tho ]
meu are tall, strong and active ; the ) ]
women often handsome; excepting (
cannibalism and infanticide, they have i
ceased to uractioe the vices of their an- i
castors. This reminds me of a vvyayeur 1
to Colorado, and who, like the enterpris i
ing journalist from the West who went <
to California on a free ticket, and had <
to walk back 8,060 miles for the bene- 1
tit of his liver, becoming disgusb-d, i
wrote to a friend, who requested his |
opinion of the new El Dorado : *' Well, <
if the water was not so bad, and the cli
mate so wretched, and the society so in
fernally disagreeable, Colorado would
do for a settler." His friend ceuld but
exclaim : "Topbet would be no worse." f
Also as our school childre- study nearer *
geographical positions, and this elimiua- '
tion of the peculiarities of the South (
seas may entertain them, I have written (
of many of their exhibits, and will add '
of the beautiful specimens of wool on '
exhibition. Tasmania exports 5,050,920 !
pounds. Handsome specimens in rugs '
of the skins of kangaroo, wallaby, and *
bandicoot. There are 220 specimens of 1
beautiful plumaged birds in Tasmania. 1
Their native box and tonga bean wood '
specimens have a delightful odor ; they 1
are also serviceable in fancy work. Their 1
black wood makes a superior billiard 1
trble ; their wiute wood is superior for 1
engraving purposes. Their native f
cherry makes gunstocks. !
Messrs. E. Mercier & Co., one of the j '
largest producers in champagne, who '
exhibit their w inc and complete appara- 1
tus for bottling it, have immense cellars, 1
165 teet deep, entered by railways, for |
Jiaudling their large vintage, amounting '
yearly to 1,500,000 bottles. Mr. Al
phonso Fuller, 3502 Race St., Philadel

especially to establish agencies for the 1

At noon on Hal unlay, the fifteenth of
July, says a letter to the New York
Herald , the Fifth cnva'rv, under Gen.
Merritt, were bivouacked on Rawhide
creek, eightoeii miles from Fort l<aramie,
to which point they were ordered iu
fmui the Cheyenne river, 100 miles to
the north, en route to join Cnxik. A
courier suddenly appeared from the
agency with dispatches stating that 800
Cneycnncs were making preparations
to leave at once for tho Northwest to
join Sittiug Hull; that he was to throw
himself across tliir line of march in
time to intercept them. Merritt had
to make eighty miles before they eould
make thirtv, but off he went, and Snu
day night ronud him with seven com
panics hiding under ths bluffs on War
Bonnet or Hat creek, square up their
front.
At daybreak Monday morning Lieut.
King, commanding the outjaists to the
southeast, seut ill word that the war par
ties were coming over the ridge from the
direction of the reservatooii. Joining
him at the advanced poet, (lan. Merritt
fouuil the re|Hrt correct. The command
noiselessly mounted and was uiassisl un
der the bluffs a quarter of a mile to the
roar, out of sight of the ludiaus. At
the same time the wagon tram was some
MX miles off to the southwest, slowly an
preaching, and the Indians wore closely
watching it, but keening concealed from
the view of its guard. The two couipa
Dies of iufautry with it were ruling iu
the wagoua. At six o'ekvk the Indians
were swartuing all aloug the ridge to the
southwest, some three miles away. Soil
denly a party of eight or ten warriors
came dashing down a ravine which hsl
directly under the hill whore Lieut.
K.ug, with his six men, was watching.
The object was as suddenly aiqmrent.
Two horsemen, unconscious of tlie prox
imity of the foe, had veuturel out ahead
of tlie train and were making rapidly
for the creek. They were couriers with
dispatches to the command. The ludi
anx, utterly iguonint of tlie rapid move
of the Fifth, were simply bent on jump
ing ou the ci'uriers and getting their
seal J vs. Buffalo Hill, chief of the scouts,
lay on the bill with King, and iustautly
sprung to his horse dowu off the hill.
" All of you keep out of sight," said
the general. " Mount now, and when
the word is given off with you."
Then, turning to the officer of the
picket, he said :
*• Watch them. King. Give tho word
when you are ready."
Crunching behind the little butte.
Bill aud his }>&rty of two scouts and six
soldier* were breathlessly waiting.
Half wav up was the general aud his
staff. The lieutenant lay at the crest,
watching the rapidly approaching foe.
Down they came, u-arer aud nearer, the
sun flashing from their brilliantly
p&iuted IHHIIOS and their polished oma
inent*. Then, just as they are dashing
by the front of the hill, King shouts :
•' Now, lads, in with you."
With a rush aud yell the troopers are
hurled upou the Indians' flank, not fifty
yards awuv.
I ten. Merritt springs up to seti the at
tack just a* a tall Indian reeled iu his
saddle, shot by Corporal Wilkinst u, of
K company. Au answering bnllet
whistled by the g. ueral's head, wlien
King—still on watch—sung on' :
" Here they come by the dozens."
Tlie reserve ludiaus came swarming
down from the ridge to the rescue.
Com pan v K WHS instantly ordered to the
front. But before it appeared from be
hind the bluff the Indians, emboldened
by the rush of their friends to the
rescue, turned savagely on Buffalo Bill
and the little party at the outpost.
The latter sprung from their horses
and met the daring charge with a volley.
Yellow Hand, s young Cheyenne brave,
came foremost singling Bill as a foe man
worthy of his steel. Cody ooolly knelt,
and, taking deliberate aim, sent his bul
let through the chief's leg and into his
horse's head. Down went the two, and,
before his friends could reach him, a
second shot from Bill's rifle laid the red
skin low.
On came the others, bent on annihilat
ing the little baud that opposed them,
when, to their auiar.cr.icDt, a long, bine
line popped up in their very front,
and K company, with Col. Mason at its
head, dashed at them. Leaving their
dead, the Cheyenne* scattered back,
belter skelter, to the ridge, but toeir
tire was wild and their stand a short one.
Company after company debouched
from behind the bluff, and, utterly
disheartened, the Indians rushed for
the reservation, leaving behind all their
provisions. Get. Merritt pursued
them till uight, when the whole com
mand went into camp at the agency.
The Ir dians left their dead, and admit
having more wounded. They also lost
six ponies. Their friends at "Red Cloud
•say they never dreamed the Fiftli cavalry
could get there in time to head them off.
The regiment sustained no loss.
Hani Times in England.
Hard times! Hard times! Dullness,
despondency, depression everywhere
and iu all trades; thousands of houses in
the West End shut up or for rent, fur
nished or unfurnished; empty theaters;
idle workmen; reduction of wages and
shortening of hours in tho manufactur
ing districts—this is whAt yon hear or
see day after day in England, says a let
ter writer. You in America can now
sympathize wit jronr Euglish cousins,
for they are beginning to suffer what
you have so long endured. It is over
trading and over-prodnctiou which have
caused the trouble here. Tho mill
owners in the north have for the moot
part agreed to adopt short time; the
mills are to bo run only thirty-eight
hours per week—nine au I a half" hours
cm Tuesday, W dnesday, Thursday aud
Friday, and not at all on Saturday and
Monday. This will diminish tho pro- i
dnction by more than one-third, and it
is hoped that thus the immense stocks
which now overburden the market may
bo worked off. The initiative in this ar
rangement has been taken by the co
operative or joint stock mills, and the
other* were glad enough to follow suit.
•Seme of the employers, however, have
reduced the rate of wages as well as tho !
time, and this makes it very h*rd on the
operatives.
Why He Was Pardoned.
A pardon recently extended by the
governor of Virginia to Jonathan Otcy, ■
seutenced to three years' confinement in
the State penitentiary for bigamy, re ;
calls certain facts connected with his
conviobon that illustrate how cruel the
operation of the laws may sometimes lie. ;
Otey, who is seventy-six years old, is re
presented as au extremely iguorant man
from one of the interior counties of the
State. He was deserted by his wife and,
alter the lapse of five years, being in
formed by some of his neighbors that
so long an abondonment operated as a
divorce, ho contracted a second marrige,
without taking the necessary legal steps j
for annulling tho first, which he might
readily havo done. His health has been
so much broken that further confine
ment would result in his death, and on
those representations tho pardon has
toeen granted. It is coupled, however,
with tho provision that he may not live
with bis second wife—so called—until
he shall be remarried to her, after hav
ing been law/ally divorced from the first.
A REMEDY FOR CHOLERA INFAXTTTM.
—Toast a half slice of stale bread very
brown, break it a goblet and fill up with
water; put in as much Aoda as you can
hold on a three-cent piece; let the little
one drink a little at a time. Jf the
stomach is very irritable, give only a
teaspoonful at a time. In some cases,
with the advioe of a physician, says a
correspondent, I have put in a teaspoon
ful of paregoric in the gobletful.
CHANGING THEIR HOMES.— The eight
hundred Icelanders who have mude
Manitoba their home will find the soil
there more productive tlian that of their
own barren island, which yields a scanty
subsistence to less than 80,000 people.
In the hot weather, however, they may
long for their "old country," where ice
water is never needed and sunstroke is
unknown. Some three hundred more
Icelanders follow the first lot.

Hen. C'anbjN Murder by .Modccs,
The death of Gen. Custer recalls ths
terrible fate of his brother-in arms. Gen.
Cauby, who was treacueronsly murdered
by Captain Jack of the Modoc trilo of
ludiaus, April 11, 1873, in the Lavu B-d
camp, Siskiyou couutv, California. Gen.
j Cauby had been iu command of thw
department of Columbia, and during the
six mouths previous to hi* aarassiaation
hail lieen actively engaged in bringing
the Modix*s to accept the terms of peace
| offered them by the govern incut. Ou
tho morung of April 10, five Indians
ami four squaw* had dome into his cam p.
and after r*eeiving presents of clothing
and provisions from the peace commis
sioners, one ef them was sent oat a* a
messenger to the Indian camp, asking
for a meetiug ou the following morning
at a point about oue mile beyond tho
picket lines. Early in the morning
Boston Charley came iuto camp aud re
ported that Cap bun Jack and five other
Indians would meet the commission out
side the lines. In ala-nt an hour Geu.
Cantyr, Mr. Dyer, the Rev. Dr. Thomas
and &r. Meaobara, with interpreters,
started for the place of meeting, where
they at once found the Indians. Speeches
were mad* hv Mr. Meocham, Geu Can
by, aud Dr. 'Thomas, after which Cap
tain Jack asked for Hot Creek and Cot
ton wood—place.i then already occupied
—for a reservation. Mr. Meuehom told
Jack that it was impossible to grant the
request, whereupon Hohonclii'i admon
ished Mr. Meachaui to say no more, and
while Schonchiu was still speaking,
Captain Jack walked hebiud the com
pany, and npou exclaiming, " All
ready !" drew a pistol and snapped a
cap at Gen. Canby. Putting ou another
cap he again fired, and Geu. Canby fell
dead, shot under the eye. Scliouchin
then fired upou Mr. Meocliam, and
Boston Charley and another Indian shot
and killed l)r. Thomas, Mr. Dyer was
chased some distance, but succeeded iu
reaching his camp.
Gen. Canby was one of tho sevou gen
erals iu tho army who then hold the
brigadier rauk. Ho was an officer nni
vorsally esteemed, and his me'ancholy
fato awakened a general feeling of indig
nation throughout tho entir country.
Gen. Sherman, under directions of the
President, at once forwarded orders to
the camp to "make the attack BO strong
and persistent that their (the Modoc*)
fate may be commensurate with tln-ir
crime. Yon will be justified in their
utter extermination."
There is Banger.
The poisonous natnie of the dye used
in.ooloriug stockings aud undershirts
has boon frequently demonstrated dnr
i ing the hot weather. The Srimtifle
American says that red, brown, blue
and yellow may be poisonous, and tells
!of a case as follows : Tho garments
I were of a light woolen raatori d, and,
: having liecome somewhat worn, were
sent to au extensive dying and scouring
establishment in New York city to be
dyed a dark blue. 'Die owner, aft' r
wearing the clothes for a few days in
hot weather, observed that tho blue
color stained his undergarments, ami in
tho localities of tho stains ho became
sensible of a cutaneous eruption. The
latter soon extended on a large area,
which became i xcessively inflame*], and
a pustular stale followed, resulting in
excruciating suffering and prostration.
The case was carefully examined by sev
eral eminent physicians iu that city, who
pronounced it one of the most severe at
tacks of poisoning they hal r v<r ell
countered, and unhesitatingly uscri' I
it to the dyeing of the fabric with ani
line blue. Had the Ration r been a child
or an invalid, the opinion was that tho
disease was sufficiently malignant to
prove fatai. . A safe way i* to discard
any garment tho coloring of which
stains the skin.
A CUSTER MONUMENT.— The citizens
of Monroe, Mich., General Custer's na
tive city, have taken steps toward erect
ing a magnificent monument to the
memory of that officer and his com
rades. The New York Jfr rald is also
raising a subse ription for the Famepnr
pose.

jMihte, and how careful to jierform her
duty to the letter! Mr. Jonea decided,
with his umal acumen, that there wax
no room to doubt ou that poiut !
He not toed, indeed. Unit her girlish
li vely was gone ; brit that was a decided
improvement, according to his view,
she was Mrs. Jones now, and meant to
keep all whiskered popinjays at a re
pretahle dt-tanoe.
He liked it!
And so, through tuose interminable
evenings, Edith - it, playing long garni s
of chess with him, or listening to his
gains or losses in the way of trade ; or
reading ohticul articles of which the
words conveyi-d uo ideas to her absent
mind.
She walked through the busy streets,
lea ling on liis arm, with an unaeeu form
ever a: her side; and slept next hia
heart, when hers wus far away!
Hut when she was alone—no hnmau
eye to read her Mad secret, her small
hands clasped in agony, and In r fair
head bent t>> thu very dust—was he not
a veuget! i
It was a driving storm. Mr. Jones
resolved to dine at n tavern instead of
returning h>me. He had just seated
himself, and giveu his order to the
ol*cquioits waiter, when his attention
was attracted by the conversation of two
gentlemen near him.
" Have you seen the beautiful Edith
since her marriage, Harry t"
" N'o; I feel too much vexed with her.
Such * splendid woman to marry such
an idiot! All for a foolish quarrel with
Ainslie. Yoti never saw sucli a wr-ck **•
it has made of . him. However, she
well punished; for, with all of hereon
sum mats' {act and effort to kis<p up aj>
js'iiranc- h, it is jilain she is the most
miserable womnu in existence; as Mr.
Jefferson Jones, whom 1 have never seen,
might jwrceive, if he wasn't, as all tie
world says, the very princi' of donkeys."
Jones seized hi* h t ami ru*h*l into
tho open air. Six tirnoa bo wont, liko a
comet, round tho sqiiaro, then, nettling
bia (Mm down over hi* brow, in a very
piophetie manner, be turned bin foot
atop* deliberately homeward.
It wa# the d'-ceitfal calm l>efor> the
whirlwind. Ho found Edith pale and
aelf-poasemed, an usual. Ho was quite
a* much no himself—even went HO far an
to oompliment her on a coquettish little
j eki t that fitted her round figure very
charmingly.
•' I'm thinking of taking a abort jour
ney, Edith," naid he, seating himself by
her aide, and playing with the silken
cord and tamels about her waist. "As
it is wholly a business trip, it would
hamper me to take you with me; but
von'll hear from me. Meanwhile, you
know how to enjoy yourself—bey,
Edith!"
He looked senrchingly at her. There
wa# no conscious blush, no change of
expression, no tremor of tho frame. 110
might as w. 11 liavti addressed a marble
statue.
Mr. Jeffersou Jones was poscsl! Well,
he bnvlo lier on of his characteristic
adieus; and, when tho door closed,
Edith felt as if a weight had been lifted
off her heart.
Titer t was but one course for i er to
pursue. Hhe knew it—she luul already
marked it nut. She would deny herself
to all visitors; sh" would not go abroad
tiii her hnslKtnd's return. Hbe was
strong iti herpurpi sc. There should be
no door left ojen for busy scandal to
enter.
Of Aiuslio she knew nothing, save
that a letter reached her from him after
her marriage, which she had returned
unopened. And so she wandered
restlessly through those splendid rooms,
and, tried by tlu self-inflicted penance,
to atone for the defection of her heart.
Did she take her guitar, old Hongs that
they hnd sung together came unbidden
to her lips; that hook, too, they had
read. Oh, it was all misery, turn where
she would 1
Day after ilay passed—no letter from
Mr. Jones. The time had already pans
ed that was fixed upon for his r 'tnrn,
aud Edith, nervous from close confine
ment, aud the weary inward struggle,
started like a frightened bird at every
foot fail.
It came at last—the letter—sealed
with black. "He had been accidentally
drowned. His hat was found; all search
for the body had beeu unavailing."
E bth was no hypocrite, She could
not mourn for him, save iu the outward
garb of woe.
Atnslie was just starting for tho con
tinent, by order of a physician, when
tho news reached him. A brief tune
ho gave to decorum, and fh"n they
met.
It is needless to sy what that moot
ing was. Day* and mouths of wretched
ness wore forgotten, like eomo dreadful
dream. She was again his own Edith,
sorrowing, roj.ent.iut and happy.
Tin y were sitting together one avon
ing— E litb's head was upon his shoul
der, and her face radiaut at a seraph's.
They were spcakiug of their future
homo.
"Any spot on the wide earth but
this, dear Aiuslir. Take me away from
those painful nswcations."
"Say you so, pretty Edith!" said n
well known voice. "I but tried. that
faithful heart of yours to prove it. Pity
to tnrn such a pretty comedy into a
tragedy ; but I happen to bo manager
here, young man !" said Mr. Jonea,
turning florooly toward tlies Iwwildcred
Ainalie.
The revulsion wae too dread fill. Edith
survived but a week. Ainalie lieearae
liuiiehutnly iliaaiie.

A Cure for Indian*.
When Mark Twain, in 18f>7, resigned
his clerkship to the United States Senate
committee on conchology, it was partly
caused by his tender of tho following
advice concerning the treatment of the
Indians in the Wi tt :
I next went to i'm secretary of war,
who vas not inclined tn s e mo at all
until bo learned that I was connected
with the governm--ut. I! I liail not l oon

would not have got iu. I asked for a
light (ho was smoking at tho time), and
then told him I had no fault to Ami with
his defending the parole stipulations of
(ionersl Lee and his companions in
arms, but that I could not approve of
his method of fighting the Indians on
the plains, i snid ho fought too scatter
ing. He ought to got them more to
gclher—get tiiem together iu some con

provisions enough for both parties, aud
then have a general mas* icro. I said
there was nothing *•> convincing to the

may recover, but if yon educate him and
wash him it is bound to finish him some

his being. "Mir," I said, "tho time
