Mr.whatsoe’eryourname lie,
Sitting down my lines to read,
I’ve a word for you to-day, Sir-
Yes ! a word ior you indeed !
On its individual bottom”—
Bo His said—“must stand a tubs
’Tia of speeoh a meaning figure,
For dependant men a rub.
Ev’ry man with mind and muscle,
Waiting not; but working nous
Should be ever “ up and doing”
To the sweating of his brow.
Harvests great the farmers gather
From the littlo seeds they sow;
And we read, that “ tall the oaks are
Which from little acorns grow.”
Drops of water make an ocean ;
Grains of sand, a mountain high;
Thourhtson thoughts.a mentalladdor,
Reaching upward to the sky.
Disappointments mav assail you,
No success may eiTorts orown j
But the tears you Bhed. repining.
Never Will your troubles drown.
If jron foil by indiscretion,
Or by stern Misfortune’s band.
What is gained by lying prostrate,
While you have the strength to stand ?
In the dust you should uot grovel,
Overawed by Fortune’s frowns—
“ Ups” shall win, ifyou have courage,
In the game of “ ups and downs.”
If the spider’s web be broken, .
IJe will soon another spin,
Quite as affable as ever,
Flies politely asking in.
You must spin no webs nor meshes
The nnwary. to ensnare.
What you dn in oonstant doing
Should be done “ upon the square.”
Work! and in the hymn of labor
Letyour earnest voice arise—
Seeds you sow may 5 ield a harvest
In the realms beyond the skies.
Like the ant, you must bo frugal;
Like the bee, industrious be—
Then on self alone depending;
Independent, truly free,
You oan buy your Clothes of Bennett
At a prioe so very small.
That, in part, by patronizing
Bennett’s Mammoth Tower Hall,
You oan be a tub that siandetb
On a bottom all its own;
And a tub well filled with pleasures
To dependant men unknown.

! SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1859,
Messrs. Peterson have handed us a vo
lume, published byJT. 0. H. P. Burnham, of
Boston, entitled “ Self Education: or tho
Means and Art of Moral Progress, translated
Horn tho French of M. lb Baron Degerando,
by Elizabeth P. Peabody.” We take this to
be that very remarkable book, first pnblishod
iB 1824, Du Perfeclionnement Moral,oude Vedu
cation de soi-meme, by tho Baron Joseph Ma
r4e de Gerando, to which tho French Aca
demy decreed their Montyon prize in 1825.
New editions appeared in 1820 and 1832. It
is to tho Baron de Gerando, who formed the
Society for tho Encouragement of Education,
that tho system of public schools in France
ihust bo credited. The translator would have
added to tho valuo of tlio volumo by giving a
biographical notico of tho author. Sho must
allow us to sketch it, in order that our public
may know what manner of man was this, who,
amid the, Vtjnhoil of war, and the difficulties
Of polUmil changes, steadily pursued his self
flevoied citreor, and mode education an cle
ment in French Government. Born of an
Italian family, at Lyons, in 1770, De Gerando
was intendod for tho Church, but abandoned
his purpose when tho Rcvolutmn of 1789
placed tho clerical profession at a great dis
count. In 1793, at tho defence of Lyons, ho
narrowly escaped being shot. 110 fled to
Naples, returning in 1797, entered tho army as
a private soldier, and, in this capacity, wrote
an Essay which won the prizo offered by the
; Institute. After tho 18th Brumairo, Lucien
; Bonaparte, Minister of tho Interior, nomina
\ ted him one of the Council of Arts and Com
merce. 110 bccamo an author, publishing a lo
gical and metaphysical work which attracted
some attention, and obtained his admission in
1804 to the Academio des Inscriptions ct Belles
Lettres. Next, under M. de Chahpiony, ho
became principal secretary to the Ministry ot
the Interior, and thus coming undor tho notico
of Napoleon, was directed by him to prepare
a gonoral view of the situation of the French
empiro, to ho presented to tho Legislative
body, lie became ono of Napoleon’s espe
cial favorites, and was employed by him in
several offices of trust and honor, and finally
made him member of tho Council of Stato,
officer of the Legion of Ilonor, and a Baron
of tho Empire; with a pension of five thou
sand dollars a year. Ho temporized a little
during the Hundred Days, but resumed Ills
seat in tho Council of State, which ho occu
pied until his death, in 1842. Ho was too
liberal for Charles tho Tenth, hut Louis
Philippe highly esteemed him. IDs whole
life was devoted to tho advancement of edu
cation, and ho especially interested himsolf in
tho instruction of deaf mutes. His works aro
very numerous. Among them nono is moro
highly esteemed in Franco than this on self
education, whicli Mrs. I’eabodt Ims trans
lated, and Mr. BunNiiAM has published. It
was not written for tho world, but, having
boen printed, was honored with tho highest
public distinction which Franco could bestow.
Mrs. Peabody erroneously calls him tho
“ Baron Degerando,” forhis name was De Ge
rardo, and thus only is lie to bo found in
French biographical notices.
It is understood that Mr. Tuompson West

Ticknor & Fields will this day publish
the Rev. George 11. llodson’s biography,
(«< Twelve Years of a Soldier’s Life in India,”)
of his dashing, romantic brother, Major llod
son, tho hero of Delhi and Commander of
“ Itodson’s Horse.” The brilliant exploits oi
this brave soldier, at tho siege of Delhi, filled
English newspapers with paragraphs for
months. Tho volume will include a personal
narrative of the Siege of Delhi, and capture
of the King and Princes. This book is re
printed from the third and much-enlarged
English edition. Major Tlodson, tho son ol
an English clergyman, was born in 1821, edu
cated at llugby, under Dr. ARNonn, graduated
at Cambridge in 181 j, and immediately after
got a cadetship, and embarked for India,
where lie landed In September, 1845, and was
speedily sent into tho thick of tho first Sikh
War, himself spiking two guns at the Battle oi
Sobraon. Tho war ended, ho became second
lientcnant in tho line—at the age of twenty
five, junior in rank to uneducated lad 3 of
eighteen and nineteen. He was taken notico
of however, for his intelligence and activity,
am\, finally, sot to build tho famous Hill Asy
lum for whito children at Sabathoo. Noxt he
was a surveyor, then a Judge in tho Lahoro
Conrt, as well as second in command of tho
Guidos —afterwards in tho second Sikh War of
1840, when tho Punjaub was annexed; after
which he married, having worked himself up
to tho chief command of tho Guides, very
hajpy until July 185-1, when his child died, af
ter which, on a wrongful accusation of civil
and military malversation, liOjWas suspended 3
pententc life, and finally cleared, going hack
to Ins oldrcgiment, as subaltern. Suddenly
tho Sepoy reboiJiQn of 1857 broke out, and the
Lieutenant, wiiose mettle and brain were then
appointed Asalstant-Quartcr
_mjS|Sseneral on the Commandcr-in-Chiefs
nHKI staiT, and appointed to raiso a troop
and foot for services in tho Intelligence
'Department, and as personal escort. Tho
march upon Delhi began in March 1857—t00

the sicgoi'tvhich- terminated in tho triumph of
the BriUßji,su September 22, 1857, and of
which tho mftgrapher says “ this is the feat of
arms of which England litis most cause to bo
proud. From Grcssy to SebastorM it has
novcrbeon equalled.” Indeed, it iws a great
triumph, leas than 3,000 Englishmen, in tlio

per artillery, taking an immense fortified city,
garrisoned by an army trained by Euglislmien
and numbering 70,000 soldiers at least, and
supplied with all the munitions of war, in their
own country. In this book the wholo details

of work, under bronchitis and Inflammation of
the cheßt. Just at this time, too, ho accepted
the command of “ The Guides,” and looking
for the Victoria Cross (for bravery on the field)
ag the highest object of his ambition. At last
Delhi fell, and Hodsox’s letter to his wife
merely says, “ I was fortunate enough to cap-
turo the King and his favorite wife. To-day,
more fortunate still, I have seized and destroy
ed the King’s two sons and a grandson (the
famous, or rather infamous Aboh Bukt,)
the villains who ordered the massacre of our
women and children, and stood by and wit
nessed the foul barbarity.” No wonder that
Sir Colin Campbell, a gallant veteran, took
warmly to this man, and prophesied his ad
vancement. But tho end was near. In
March 1858, at tho storming of the Begum’s
palace at Lucknow, Hobson was shot through
tho chest, and died the next day, mourned as
a soldier like him deserved to bo. Sir Colin
Campbell, announcing his death to the widow,
wrote, «I followed your noble husband to
the grave myself, in order to mark, it* tho most
public manner, my regret and estoenvl&r tho
most brilliant soldier under my command, and
one whom I was proud tO call my friend.” Up
to this hour, however, tho British Govern
ment have not done anything to honor tho name
of this most gallant man, the captor of tho
King of Delhi and his aons. The biography,
written by his brother, is mainly made up from
Hodson’s own letters to his wife. Tho bio
grapher says;
“ Many, I believe, will agroe with me in think
ing that those pages prove that the poetry and
romanco of war are not yet extinct; that even the
Enfield rifle has not reduced all men to a dead
lovol, but that thero is still a place to be found for
individual prowess, for tho lion heart and tho eaglo
eye. and tho iron will. One seems transported
back from tho prosaio nineteenth century to the
ages of romanco and chivalry, and to catch a
glimpso, now of a Paladin of old, now of a knightly
hero sa?is peur et sans reproche ; now of a north
ern chieftain, 1 riding on border foray/ .noWgbf
a captain of free-lances; yet all dissolving fiitoa
Christian soldier of our own day.
“ Most striking of all, it has appeal’d to me. is
tho rosemblanoe to the romantic career of that
horo of tho Spanish ballads, who, by bis many
deeds of heroio daring, gained for himself the dis
tinguished title of ‘EI de las Haianas’—‘ He
of tho exploits.’ Those who are acquainted with
the chronicles of the Conquest of Granada, will
almost fanoy in reading these pages that they are
hearing again the story of Fernando Perez del
Pulgar; how at one time by a bold dash he rode
, with a handful of followers across a country
swarming with the enemy, and managed to force
his way into a boleaguerud fortress; how at another
he galloped alone up the streets of Granada, then
in possession of the enemy, to the gates' of the
principal inosquo, and nailed a paper to the door
with his daggor; how again he turned the tide of
bottle by the mere charm of his-eagle eye and
thrilling voloo, inspiring the most timid with a
courage equal to bis own; how he made the
onemy lay down their annß at his word of com
mand; how the Moorish mothers frightened their
children with tho sound of his name; now he ’was
not only tho hairbrained adventurer, delighting In
peril and thirsting for tho excitement of the fight,
but also the courteous gentleman, the accomplished
scholar; as profound and sagacious in the ootinctl
as he was reckless In the field, and frequently se
lected by the wily Ferdinand to conduct affaire
requiring tho greatest prudence and judgment.”

Letter from Selinsgrove* Pa.
DEDICATION OP TUB EVANGELICAL LUTUKRAX MIS
SIONARY INSTITUTE —INTERESTING EXERCISES
BEFORE THE FACULTY AND STUDENTS OF THE
SUSQUEHANNA FEMALE COLLEOB.
[For The Pross.}
Selinsgrovb, Pa., Nor. 9, 1859.
To-day and yesterday have bcon memorable
days in the history of this growing ami beautiful
town. The occasion was tho formal dedication of
tho Lutheran Missionary Institute, founded by tho
persevering and self-donying efforts of Rev. Ben
jamin Kuril, 0. D., for many years the able and
effioiont editor of the Lutheran Observer. Besides
the Missionary Institute, tho same efforts have
resulted in tho erection of a Female College/of
whioh Rev. C. C. Baughman, 0. 0., formerly of
Hagerstown, Md., is the Principal, assisted by a
corp 3 of able and efficient teachers. Although in
operation only a few weeks, the college is already
well Buppliod with students, and bids fair to meet
with eminent enoouragomeut. On Tuesday even
ing, by appointment, Rev. E. W. Hutter, of Phila
delphia, delivered an address before the Faculty
and Pupils of tho College, in the English Lutheran
Church, of which Rev. S. Domer is pastor. The
theme was : “ 'The Importance of Female Educa
tion — The, Helps and the Hindrances” The col
lege edifice's one of tho fioest in tho State, both
ns t 0 location and interior arrangements, com
mandinK oneof the loveliest and most pioturesque
prospects on tho Susquehanna.
On Wednesday morning tho town was early
alivo with fln interested populace, many of whom
had corao from Hie neighboring towns and country,
to witness the ceremony of consecration. The
faculty and students mot at tho institute building,
and marched in procession' to the Lutheran
Churoh, where an addross was delivered by Rev.
0. Steok,of Lanonstor, on tho Origin, the Gmaina,
the Prospects, and the Claims of tho Mission In
stitute, which several topics wero most ably and
satisfactorily discussed. After tho abovo address,
or. Kurtz offered a sories of extemporaneous re
marks, whioh wero full of interest to all who heard
them. He referred to tho part which a kind Pro
vidence had permitted him to take in several mea
sures, tho most important that had marked the
past history of tho Lutheran Church in this coun
try. One of these was the formation of the Gene
ral Synod, another the founding of tho Church in
stitutions at Gettysburg, anothor the establishment
of a denominational church of
whioh had been crowned with signal success. To
accomplish ono more remaining objoct was ade
siro, whioh ho had cherished with eager and ab
sorbing solicitude, and this was the founding of
the Institute which was to bo solemnly set apart
for the sacred purposes of its orection this day.
This accomplished, and, liko Simeon, ho would
say, “Now lettCßt thou thy servant depart in
peace, for mine eyes have beheld thy salvation.”
And this desire oi his heart was now gratified. In
tho faco of much opposition, and of many dis
couragements, the Missionary Institute had been
crowned with adegree of success that far exceeded
his most sanguine oxncotations, and was now no
longor an cxporiinont, out a fixed fact.
These exercises at tho church concluded, a pro
cession was formed, under the load of two mar
shals, as follows; 1. Band of Musio. 2. Superin
tendent, faculty, and atudonta of Missionary Insti
tute. 3. Speakers. 4- Clergymen. 5. Faculty and
students of Female College. 0. Citizens and
strangers. A largo proportion of those in the pro
cession wero ladios, and tho wholo presented a
most imposing appearance. Arrived at the insti
tute grounds, the dedicatory service was per
formed by Rov. Benjamin Kurtz, 0. 0., from the
steps of tho Institute, the audience occupying tho
front area, and (os many as it could accommodate)
tho first floor. This concluded, a fervent pray or
was offored by Rev, P. Rizer. The collegiate de
partment of the Missionary Institute is in ebargo of
Rev. Poterßoin, formerly of Sunhury, assisted by
Professors Weaver and Noetling, and the thcokjs
gioal department is presided over by Rov. Jacob
Ziegler. Besides those, tho pastor loci } Rev. 8.
Domer, delivers lootures on Moral Scionco. Al
though tho oornor-stone of tho Missionary Insti
tute was laid only one year ago, it nlroady contains
a groator number of thoological students than any
other Luthoran Institution in tho country, with the
single excoptlon of tho ono at’Fort Wayne, (led.)
Tho edifice itself la an ornament to the town, and
rofleots great credit on the enterprise and liberality
of the citizens of Soliosgrovo. It is a beautiful
building, three stories nigh, with basement, loft,
and observatory, of tho villa style of architecture,
43 feet by 8(1, and tho surrounding ecenoiy is un
surpftssod. In a very short time, both the Insti
tute and the Female Colloge will bo supplied with
every needful modern improvement, and be com
plete in ovory particular.
< Irrespective of these sohools of learning, Selins
frove is rapidly advancing in trade and commerce,
ts situation is truly beautiful, on tho banks of the
Kusquohanpa, about fifty miles from Harrisburg.
Tho 1 Central Railroad passes immediately by the
town, although on the opposite side of the river, so
that passengers can loavo Philadelphia at seven in
. the morning, and reach here by three in the after
noon. It is to be hoped that the good people of
1 Philadelphia, Baltimore, and New York, in choos
i ir.g a place for a summer resort, will hereafter take
gelinsgrove into tho* account, for certain It is that
a more desirable retreat for themselves and faini
* lies they could pot toleot, . .

great plausibility, that under the influence of sur- ’
rounding 1 customs, those set apart for pastoral,
teaching, or 'evangelising duties, are too much
severed from secular pursuits; that Christians have
not been suifioie&Uy willing, of Ut*, that their
ministers should be fishermen,, or be
loved physicians. Tho wisdom of this course—of
leaving the evangelization of the world to minis
ter* alone—ia compared to that which in war would
leave all the fighting to the officers. “Ye mar all
prophecy, that all may learn,” was the language
or Paul, and unless the efforts of laymen, possessing
the requisite ability, were put forth, the work of
the regular ministry could, at best, be but a compa
rative failtue. For this reason, it is assumed that
the most successful pastors are those who hare
most discernment and toot, in setting their mem
bers to work.
In corroboration of these views, the recent great
here, as well as those in England, Ire
land, and Wales, are cited, and for the latter Eng
lish authorities are given to prove that so far as
human instrumentality has been concerned, these
revivals are mainly the result of lay agency. The
London Deacon is quoted as follows: (( Itisa
noteworthy fact that the awakening 1a the result of
the simplo setting forth of Christ by laymen; and
is entirely independent of any church organization
whatever.” It is also stated, in this connection,
that in Staffordshire, England, a common laborer
in tho coalmines has been the instrument of an ex
tensive awakening by holding meetings in the
pita; fire hundred persons having been converted
in a single locality. ,
In summing up this argument to his brethren, in
behalf of “Individual Evangelism,”* Dr. Malcom
very felicitously, and perhaps with, more signifi
cance than might at first appear, quotes thiSpiasage
from Pf«4 r «s®pt#Ue;to the Hebrews: “ When for
the time' ’yet^rnghi ‘to hh• 'teacheis, ye have need
thatonefol<4r-7maagabL” The letter is admirably
.written,' and in Usgeneral tone doubtless embodies
the eenUmanta of a.Jarge proportion of his breth
ren iff the,mii£stry,* what the Doctor means, how*
ever, bfyfhsfevel of ordinary lovt in .the following
passage,b*tof particularly.clear; “ There will he
times whan-' the best Christians enjoy more than
at others; bqt though they sometimes rise above
tho level of ordinary love and joy,"they never rink
below it; and that level should rise as long as they
live.” It is easy enough to imagine no depressions
where there are no elevations, but hoW'to dater
miuo & level where the latter are allowable, i#more
difficult; nor is it less difficult to reconotio a Uvtl
with an inclined plane, or a level that should
gradually rise through lift as the above quotation
intimates. The “level of ordinary love ”is not as
lucid wfigure as might be desired under the cir
cumstances, whether applied to that which wanna
the Christian's heart alone, or to that “the
course” of which, Shakspeare declares, “ never did 1
run smooth .” U|>on the whole, hqwever, there Is
a broad liberal spirit evinced in this letter which
does its distinguished author great credit, and will
have a good effeot.
Tan Yotrxp Mew’s Christian Association at
Gervaxtowx.—We are happy to know that this
young but prosperous organisation has completed
arrangements for a course of lectures, to be deli
vered at the Town Hall, at Germantown, which
will probably enable them to consummate at least
some of their cherished and praiseworthy objects
in behalf of the young men of that community.
The Initial lecture of the course will be delivered
on Monday evening next, by Morton McMicfcael,
Eaq. Mr. MoMlohael will be followed, on the Mon
(lay evenings succeeding, to December 19, incln
eivc, by Rev. A. A. Willlts, Dr. R. Bhelton Mack
emio, Chaa. S. Pnneoaat, Eaq., lVm. H. Allen,
Eeq., »nd Roy. J. Wheaton Smith. The facilities
now afforded for going to Germantown to attend a
lecture, and retn rniog at an early hour the earns
evening, are so complete that we donbt not many
of our oitiiens will avail themselves of this oppor
tunity of hearing the gentlemen named—several of
of whom are widely and favorably known to the
literary and worhl—for this popular
Oburse. We oai^yp^iimn^jsg"Ant th*Asso
ciation has la arranging
its programme/
Lav Catholic Associations.—From this week’s
foreign correspondence of the Boston Ft lot we
loam that there has recently been held a great
meeting of delegates from all the lay Catholic as
sociations of Germany. Tho writer also makes
the following suggestion: »• How would it do to hare
at New York, say, a similar gathering of delega
tions of the various Catholic associations through
out the United States ? I think It would be an im
posing aud magnificent spectaole. There is a pro
per sphere for laymen in the Church, and a work
for them to do. It la not to govern, or teach, er
lead; but there is a wide range of labor and
charity and devotion by which laymen o&n aid
their pastors, and relieve them of much labor,
care, and responsibility. In a true order every
ono has his place and work in perfect subordina
tion.”
Anniversary op tub Young Men’s Christian
Association.— The fifth anniversary of this asso
ciation will be held on Thursday evening of the
coming week, at Jayne’s Hall—prior to its conver
sion into a mercantile mart. From the arrange
ments making, the occasion will no doubt bo one
of interest. It could hardly be otherwise. Some
fifteen different religious denominations are repre
sented in it, in all of which there are a large num
ber of persons who feel a deep interest in the ob
jects whioh this association has professedly at heart.
From what we learn, it is probable that the Secre
tary’s report, this season, will be an interesting
document, as the facts embraced in the doings of
tho,past year are at onca more numerous and
satisfactory than of any former year.
Pulpit Nonsense.— Rev. Henry Ward Boechor
lately delivered a locturo in his own church, and
was introduced by Mr. Tilton, oi the Independent ,
who said:
“The lecturer insists upon being introduced.
This, I suppose, is from natural modesty. Yet,
perhaps, I ought to say a word explanatory, in or
der that ho may not come before you as a perfect
stranger! I would therefore state that he is from
Litchfield, Connecticut, and is a minister’s son.”
Amidst tho laughter of the audience Mr. Beecher
retorted by saying that “Mr. Tilton himself would
lecture in Brooklyn next week, and that he would
like to be present to introduce him.”
Congregational SixqiNo.—TheEpiscopal House
of Bisbeps, in thoir la to session, recommended to
their churches the cultivation of congregational
Binging. They say that the objeot of church musio
is not tho gratification of a cultivated musical taste,
but, by tho aid of simplo and appropriate music, to
awaken a devotional feeling in the congregation;
that the introduction of voluntaries on tho organ
botween the.vorscs of tho hymns and prayers should
bo avoided, as unnecessary and wearying to the
congregation.
The Tadlks Turning, —lt is stated that a
majority of tho present Freshman class in Har
vard College aro from Trinitarian families, and
of evangelical tendencies. Tho opinion Is also
expressed that, within a few years, there has been
a marked change toward evangelical belief among
the students, the prevailing tendency having for
merly been towards Unitari&nism.
Tub Right Rrv. Br. Barry, Bishop of Savan
nah, U. S., accompanied by his chaplain, Rev. Mr.
O’Neil, left Wexford, Ireland, for Paris, on the 18th
October. His lordship’s health is greatly improvod
by nis native Air, but having spent so many years
in the warm olimate of Georgia, ho feels his native
one very cold and moist.
Moravian Veteran Gone.— At Easton, Pa.,
last week, the Right Rev. Andrew Benade, the
oldest bishop of the Moravian church in Ame
rica, and nenrly ninety years of age, died. He
was much respected for his intelligence and good
qualities.
Geneva now contains 29,000 Catholics, out of
43,000 inhabitants, two Catholio churches, eight
Brothers of the Christian schools, and sixteen Sis

Freb Se\ts. —Some of the members of the
Bodford-strcet Methodist Church in New York
have formed a society called “ The Free-Seat As-
Boclatlon,” to opposo “ tho pew system.”
Dn. Bacon gone to Rome.— Tho Rev. Br. Bacon,
Catholio bishop of tho Maine Diocese, left Port
land, a few days since, for New York, on his way
to Romo.
Trinity CnuncH, New York.—Rov. Morgan
Dix has been re-elected assistant rector of Tritrity
Church, Ifew York, at a salary of $4,000.
Baptists in Oregon.— There are now thirty
Baptist ministers in Oregon, and the Baptist Church
is gotting an important hold there.
■" The Todd Grenadiers, of ‘Williamsburg,
New York, paraded last Thursday. The company
is composed of seventy men, notone of them less
than six feot in height; The pioneers ranged above
six feet three, and the captain was six feet six in
height. The standard-bearer was six feet seven
and a half inches high, aud tbo target-bearer, a
portly colored man, rising six feot three inches.
As might be supposed, this extraordinary gather
ing of great fellows created no little commotion in
the crowded streets through whioh they passed.
Great place, that Williamsburg!
Jefferson’s Grave. —A student ot uie
University of Virginia, writing from that institu

that designated the last resting-place of the author
of the Declaration of Independence” remains to

To ‘lo Editor of “ fke PmsA
„ S ‘* : B7 , th *, ! “ t “* il Santa Fe, New'
Mexico, onder date of tho 17th nK., I hive ta» 1
intelligence in relation to the late depredation* of
the Indians along the route of the Santa F*and 1
Independence joaH. that you mayregtra as' fia-' ‘
portent. ; .. i‘
: A passenger by has just arrived : -
ei St Louis, writes to the postmaster atßbffta Fw
from Fort Union, that on the morning of the Stjr -*
nit., soon after crossing ihff Arkansas 'river,thr <
bodies of two fhd tcpnutff—'that ~ •
had been murdered and scalped, were discovered
by tho mail party. By Indications Iff the vicinity,
which, with men accustomed, to the plains, are 1 *
almost infallible, it was supposed (hat the 1 pasty
to whloh these unfortunates belonged numbered '*
at least six, and It was presumed that the' rest had ~"
met with a similar fate. The titshnta o t ttw -
Indian “ sign,” however, prevented muehseareh/
as the mail party was too small to encounter, with
sny prospect of safely, the band of savage* that ft
was thought was in the neighborhood.
In consequence of the discovery of j this addi
tional proof of the hostility of the Camancbes,
the mail party returned to Fort Union for the pm*
pose of obtaining an escort, which upon the requi
sition of Mr. Whiting, the energetto postmaster of
Santa Fe, was furnished by Col. Bonneville.
It is now presumed that the TmiUnt b*
more troublesome than ever, and that (he impunity
with which they are permitted to commit depreda
tions will render their forays upon the white* more
frequent and more severe in their consequences
than they hare ever been. - - *
The unprotected nature of the road from Inde
pendence to Santa Fe gives the Camaeehe
Kioway tribes every facility for these outrage*.
From the frontier villages, on the east, to Fori
Union, in New Mexico, the ni>n m«n parties
almost equally small bodies of emigrants hare to
traverse a country which is utterly unprovided -
with military post* or settlements of any kind; and
the barren character of this section of the great'
plains, the absence of wood and permanent water,'
render the establishment of such safeguards to the
traveller toward Hew Mexico or California, upon
this route, almost impracticable. Without forts or
the entire extermination of the Indian*, these out
rages upon the whites must be of frequent occur
tence. The treaties that are made from time to
time with the savages rarely serve as a cheek to
them for any length of time. The habits of life of
the Camanoho and Kioway tribes unfit them for
the semi-civilized condition of the Tndf.t-f in the
territory to the east and sooth of theirrange. They
know nothing of any of the peaceful arts. Thu
chase of the buffalo, the war-path, and desultory
wandering about the waters, which they eaQ their
own, comprise the ends and aims of their* exist
ence.
A distinguished officer of the army, whose en
ergy and skill have won for btm a proud name, has
been heard to declare that a war of extermination
is the qnly policy to he adopted with regard to
these Bedoains of America; and, Is fact, the con
stant repetition of these murders upon the plains,
despite the partial retribution whleh has sometimes
fallen upon the perpetrators of them, would indi
cate that his view of the matter was correct
To attain the end of such a war, however, would
require a greater expenditure of time, men, and
money, than would be readily granted. Somo
other plan must he devised just now for .the pre
servation of life and property, and U is with a view
to pointing out such a plan that I trouble you with
this communication. < -
While the old Santa Fe trail offers no facDitiee
whatever for the estahlishmentof military posts for
its protection, New Mexico may be connected with
the States by a route, along which there would be
no trouble whatever in selecting any number of
most admirable sites, not only for forts, but for ex*
tensive settlements.
From the town of Neosho, in Southwestern Mis
souri, a road may be laid out, intersecting the Paeifio
wagon road of Lieut Beal e (leading from Fort Smith
along the Canadian to Albuquerque, N M.,) in the
neighborhood of the Antelope hills, a few miles east
of the Texas boundary, that would satisfy all the
conditions of a first-class emigrant and stag* road.
The surface of the country offer? every advantage
for easy and rapid travel, while tha abandonee of
water along the entire route, the luxuriance of the
grots, and the plentiful supply of wood, leave no
thing, when comparing this line with others across
the Plains, to he desired. The distance from gents
Fe to Neosho would not exceed, on a well care
fully-located road, 725 mQcsl Almost the whole of
the country traversed would be fit for settlement and
cultivation. The valley of the Canadian rivercon
tainsland that would compare favorably with any in
theStatesUrichnessandfertilify. The timber along
it is sufficient for all practical purposes, and the sup
ply of water abundant and unfktiisg. Many of the
little ravines which lead from fh* Üble land to (he
valley contain fine mineral some of them
sufficiently impregnated with sulphur to be ; do
doubt, highly esteemed, when known.
The climate along this route is another important
consideration in favor of its adoption. Snow rarely
falls, and never to any great depth. The winters
are mQd enough ton How trains to traverse
section without trouble from snow, or danger to the
animals from excessive cold. He expedition under
Lieutenant Beale made the passage last winter
and, although the weather was more severe than
it commonly is, no animals perished, nor did the
men suffer.
By following the valley of the Canadian to the
mouth of the Conchas, a small creek emptying into
it from the west, the traveller will never find it ne
cessary, throughont the entire route, to drive more
than six or eight miles without finding abundant
water; and a considerable detour, occasioned by
the crossing of a portion of the Llano Estalado, will
be avoided, besides securing a more level and easy
road.
The establishment of posts at the crossing of the
Arkansas, in the vicinity of the Antelope hills, and
upon the upper Canadian, would give the road ample
protection, no doubt, and sufficiently awe the In
diana to induce them to find their hunting grounds
further to the south and west.
In a short time Neosho will be the terminus of a
railway. Thus the only additional advantage re
quired to render this route complete is provided
for it. ■ -
It mayjiot be improper to mention, as an indi
cation of die ease of travel along this line, that the
distance between Hatch’s Ranch and Neosho, fol
lowing the route of Lieut. Beale to the mouth of
the North fork of the Canadian, and then travel*
ling nearly due north to Neosho, amounting to Ssfi
miles, has been performed by a team of mnlea in
twenty-two days, Including stops and detentions,
, and that the animals came In from their long jour
ney in nearly as good condition as that in which
thoy started. I am, sir,
Yours very respectfully, C.
Philadelphia, Nov. 10,1859.
The New York city election will be held in
Deoember next, when a mayor, eight aldermen,
twenty-four councilmen, ward constables, and $
school officers, are to be elected. The New York
Sim says: “The struggle promise* to be an ex
oiting one. Mr. Fernando "Wood has avowed his
determination to be a candidate, and the Tam
many-Hall leaders are looking for a candidate who
oan defeat Fernando. It is understood that the
Republicans, hoping to profit by the strife between
Fernando and Tammany, decline to enter into any
such combination as that which secured Mr, Tie
maon’s election two years ago. There will, there
fore, according to present appearances, be three
candidates in tho field. It is tree that there are
rumors of a {probable compromise between Mr.
Wood and some of the leading spirits of the
Tammany organization. During the late State
caucus Mr- Wood was very active in winking
himself friends by withdrawing his Mozart nomi
nations in favor of the Tammany candidate*; and
he has not concealed his strong desire to have the
Tammany endorsement. His Mozart Hall organi
zation has no life or strength apart from himself,
and he keeps it In existence merely to serve his
•wn personal ambitions. Let Tammasj again en
dorse him, and he will disband his Mozarf com
pany and renew his allegiance to the old Wigwam.
But we doubt if the Tammany men are prepared
to conclude a bargain with the dictator of Mozart
Hall. Many of them think that by making a good
nomination they can easily defeat him, and his
defeat at the December election wcnld destroy
forever his politioal power in this city. But the
difficulty is to get a man of the right kind to ac
copt a nomination. Mr. James T. Bredy.haa been
talked of, and, within a few days, strong hopes
havo been expressed that he can be induced to be
come a candidate. Mr. Havemeyer is also spoken
of, but his acceptance of a nomination is very
doubtful.” .
The Rochester Hatty Express says that ever
since the denouement of the mad and fool-hsrdy
attempt of old Brown at Harper’s Ferry, there
have been rumors that Gerrit Smith was in a most
distressing and pitiable state of mind. ‘ It Is said
that he has been constantly wringing his hands
and bemoaning the fate of poor Brown, and ac
cusing himself .with having been instrumental in
bringing his friends into their prerent sore trou
bles. While making a brief visit to the neighbor
hood of Mr. Smith’s residence, a few-days since,
we learned that his friends were apprehensive that
his reason would give way under the ToaS 6i grief
and anxiety the events of Harper’s and
neighborhood have occasioned,' and we were not,
therefore, surprised to learn this morning that
these fears have been realised, and that the un
happy mao'is'new avavtng hmatxq. He was takeu
to the lunatic. at Utica yesterday.
