fell nut, followed by the various missinj
articles!
A general crv of indignation was raised
and a strong disposition Wa- manifesto,
to lynch California Toni. But Mr. Bald
win took upon himself the office of cxeeu
tioner, this time with a good will.
••I always felt it in my bones, that Join
Merrill was innocent,” said he to Captaii
Soule, “and wheu it came to stripping hi
shirt, 1 hadn't, anyhow, any heart to d<
it."
“I'nvglad you didn't succeed in doin'
it,” was the reply. “I couldn't have flog
god hint if he had been guilty—nor oonli
you. either.”
“IIow so sir?”
“Ho you think yon could lay the eat on
the back of a woman!”
'That comical look of the captain s was
reflected, nay multiplied, tenfold, in the
rough faee of the old mate.
“A woman ?" he gasped out. “John
Merrill ?”
Av, a woman, Mr. Baldwih. A link
Carroll is her name, now.”
“But—what are you going to do witl
him, sir ?”
“Do with hint ? With Jier, you mean
put him, or put her, or it ashore, of course
as soon as 1 can make a port. We in us
give her a stateroom, in the cabin, am
have her to wear such a dress as belong:
to her sex.”
“Well, well—"said Mr. Baldwin, re
fleotive; “I never had anything bring mi
up with a round turn like that.”
Theu a bright idea seemed to have
struck him, and ho demanded triumphant
ly,
“Where's your clothes to dress her in !'
“She's got all her dry goods in hei
chest, ready to wear.”
“What ? In John Merrill's chest, do
you mean ?’’
“Of course. Whose else should 1 mean?
That's why he—she, I mean—always kept
it locked, and was so secret about it."
I shall not spend time to tell how we
talked the matter over in the forecastle
that night, and compared notes, and went
back to every little incident of the outward
passage, that might be supposed to have
any bearing upon this astounding discov
ery.
Of course, there were those ready to say
they had guessed the truth months ago;
but 1 venture to say, that no man on board
the Amphion had the slightest suspicion ol
the truth, until it was revealed to Captain
Soule, as 1 have related. And how much
longer we might have been in the dark,
but for the attempt to flog her, it is diffi
cult to saw
John Merrill stood no more, watches ot;
board the Amphion, nor went to tne mast
head. But Annie Carroll, a beautiful
voting lady, save that she wore her hail
iather too* much au yargon, sometimes
steered a trick at the wheel when she felt
in the humor, until our arrival at Callao,
where she became, when her story was
known, the heroine,' the lioness of the
hour. A passage home was secured l'or
her; and she took leave of us all. with nr
desire, as she confessed, to follow any
further the profession of a sailor.
It was the old, old story. An orphan, a
harsh guardian, and an attempt to force hei
into a marriage with one she disliked. A
madcap scheme, in which she had embark
ed from a way ward impulse, and persisted
in because she hardly knew how or when
to retreat? And we were constrained tc
admit, when we reviewed all the circum
stances, that she had nobly sustained the
double character, and had preserved all
the finer attributes of her sex, while she
laid aside the apparel.
And will it be wondered that she lost her
heart while on board the Amphiuii ? Not to
me: for, of course, 1 was but a boy in her
eyes. But when I last saw Merrill, he
was Mrs. Captain Wightraan anil still
claimed to be if not the boldest seaman,
the best helmsman, at least, of the family
circle.

FAREWELL SPEECH OF REI)
CLOUD.
Secretary Cox and Commissioner, Bark
er, at the request of lied Cloud, gave the
latter an interview on Sunday. Several
of the party delayed attending dissatisfied
with the former proceedings, but they were
induced to come into the room.
Commissioner Parker remarked to them
that if they had anything to say they would
now be heard.
Red Cloud then spoke as follows :
“father, 1 have collie to bid you good by.
I want an anawer to my request for the men 1
have named for my agents und trader*. I do
not want strange men. J also ask for seven
teen horses to take us ba< k home from the
railroad.
“Befbrc you seut troops to my country you
never had any trouble. I ask you whether I
did any damage to those who passed my coun
try. I divided with them wlmt I had. put
moccasin* on their feet and made them pres
ents of fcoraea. Listen to me. All of you
r seem againlt us. The men you send out to
my country always make war. and all tkey
, want is to make money by destroying us. I
1 do not want any military men for my agents
_ or superintendent. I would rather have
other men- You send out men who are poor,
who may fill their pockets. These I do not
want. I intend to make a speech in New
' York."
Secretary Cox—“As Red Cloud wants to
* leave here to-day, I will try to ho short in
’ what I have to say. As to agents ami traders
Red Cloud repeated what he said the other
■ dav. We arc not prepared now to name the
■ traders or agents. We shall not send any
I body there to steal from you if we know it.
If you see any agent or trader cheating you
Me want you to tell us. We will bring them
away ami punish them.
“The putting an agent north of Fetterman
i is a new thing, and depends upon seeing that
you are willing to live there in peace, because
the old treaty said the trading should he done
, on tlie Missouri river. This new arrangement
is made out of kindness, and we are going to
carry it out. What we say we mean. What
you say is entitled to great weight, but we
are not now ready to determine the question.
1 “The President made his answer the other
day about the forts, some of which we re
" moved because we agreed to do so. Fort
. Fetterman is south of the Platte river. We
t cannot remove it now. We believe it is as
I much for the protection of the Indians as tho
, whites in that country.
“We have not yet got from the Great Coun
. oil all the money we want to make presents.
, General Smith w ill have a good deal to huy
preaents on the way for you and your families
. hut we have not yet got the seventeen horses
you ask for. You will have everything we
can give you to make you comfortable, and
. presents to take home to show. We mean to
treat you kindly. We have plenty for that
purpose.
“If you shall stay quietly on tho home as
signed to you, we shall keep adding to your
presents. The treaty I read to you the other
day named a good many things costing a
great deal of money. We will add more from ,
time to time. I do not want to promise you
anything that we will not do, and therefore ,
we are stingy in making promises.”
“You will’see how kindly all our people
are towards you. W e hope you will have a
safe and pleasant journey home, and when !
you reach it you will send us word by tele- j
graph. We will remember all you have said !
: in council here.”
Red Cloud, after a pause, replied :
“I know you will remember what I have
said, for you have good memories. If I had j
not been for peace 1 should not have come to
my Great Father’s house. Tell your chil
dren to keep the peace. I do not say to my
father, go to my country and scare the game
n»ny. Tell him to keep his people away, I
Mill not do wrong. If you had kept your
, people across the l’lntte you never would
have hail any trouble.”
“You have your land fenced in and do not
. M-ant us to come on it. We have our land
fenced in ami do not want you to intrude on
us. All nations are around us. I do not
want to make war with Great Father. I
want to show I go away peaceably. I want
to raise my children on my land, and, there
fore, I want my Great Father to keep his
children away from me.
“I was never raised by my father on horses.
The Mexicans showed me how to ride them.
I want good horses, the same as you gave
| Spotted Tail. I am not inad with you. I
have got a better heart. I am going home.
If you will not give me horses, very well.
1 God Almighty raised me naked. I am much
I pleased with your offer to give me presents,
; but 1 do not want any.”
The council here terminated. Red Cloud
II ami the other warriors shook hands with the
Secretary and the Commissioner, and then
: hastily left the room, followed by a large
| croM'd of pale faces.
THE MESS UPON THE SOME
SA TIOS.
From our exchanges which have come
to hand siu#e the State Convention, we
copy the following comments upon the
republican nomination for Governor.
There is not a discordant note in relation
to it except from the copperhead bugles.
[From the Portland Press.]
I The candidate of the Convention needs no
; formal introduction to anybody in Maine.
: His prominence as a public man in our Legis
lature and in Congress has made him well
known. Like every one who is called to till
places of trust, he has been weighed, criticised
and judged, and the record of his public life is
again approved by the Itepublican party of
I Maine.
[From the Portland Advertiser.]
It was noticeable that throughout the heated
' canvass, in this convention, unprecedented in
in point of numbers, and divided with such
provoking equality,not an an angry word was
anywhere heard, and the unexpected result
was received with general and cordial acquies
cence. The heavy trains rolled away to the
East and the West; the nomination has been
made; and the election will follow next (all as
surely as the sunrise follows tile sunset.
[From the Riverside Echo.]
Whatever may lie the result of the nomi
nation—and we entertain no question of the
triumphant election of Mr. Perham—it is an
occasion of sincere congratulation that any
political party is ready to place in nomination
for the highest office within its gift a gentle
man so highly distinguished for rare integrity
and purity of morals as Mr. Perham is ac
knowledged to be by political friend and foe
alike. Mr. Perham is preeminently the peo
ple's candidate. We leave him therefore in
the hands of the people who will not fail to
finish what they have so well begun.
[From the Boston Advertiser.]
The good discipline under which the party
acts throughout the State is well exemplified
by the action of the State convention yester
day. It is said to be the largest convention
ever held in the State, and this is certainly
true, unless the convention at Bangor, which
nominated Governor Chamberlain for his first
term, was larger. It shows, at least, the in
; terest of the people in the issue, that they J
sent more than thirteen hundred delegates— j
i bona fide residents of the tow ns which they
represented—from all parts of the State, and j
the unanimous acquiescence of the defeated I
delegates in a nomination made by only forty 1
majority, iri a vote of thirteen hundred, testi
fies to the harmony that prevails.
Mr. Perham. who received the nomination j
for Governor, is a native of Oxford County,
where he now resides, and is fifty-one years
of age. He has held many local offices, anil j
as long ago as 1M5," was speaker of the Maine I
House of Hepresentatives. He was elected j
to Congress in 1H«2, and served three sue- I
cessivc terms, Securing a reputation as a
faithful representative and highly useful in
the special class of cases that came under his
charge,—that of soldiers' pensions. ,
The victory of the party is not a matter of
doubt, and we congratulate the republicans of
Maine that, having to make clioice between i
two such men, they can so easily lay aside
their personal preferences, and work heartily
j to defeat the common enemy.
i From the Boston Journal.]
The close contest between the friends of
Gen. Horsey, and of Hon. Sidney Perham, on
j the gubernatorial question, resulted in the
1 triumph of the latter. It was characterized
throughout by good feeling, and will not have
the least had ( fleet on the campaign. Mr.
Perham who is to he the next Governor of
Maine, is w orthy to succeed Governor Chaui
hcrlain. As a member ot the Legislature, as
Congressman for three terms, and as the
holder of other important places ol trust and
: responsibility, be has made an excellent
record and won the confidence of his fellow
' citizens, almost without distinction of party.
We cannot doubt that tile Itepublican electors
of Maine will follow up this nomination with
a majority at the polls worthy even of them.

Nashua, N. II.. April 22t 1870.
A meric am Steam Sake Co. :
Gentlemen: The same safe you sold us pass
ed triumphantly through the (Treat fire here on
the ltith inst. In one of the largest buildings
burned it was severely exposed till the floor
gave way, when it fell into the cellar amidst
hurtling timbers, varnish, resin and other
combustible materials, and remained in the
most intense heat for hours. When opened
its contents w ere in perfect condition, show
ing no effect of fire whatever. The caps
melted off the scaled water vessels as de
signed, letting, the steam around the book
case, tlius keeping out the heat: and although
the safe was over-turned in falling the water
was not spilled, and only a part evaporated,
showing a reserved power that would have
w ithstood the exposure much longer. The
safe proved itself in the fire what you repre
sented it to be; operating to our entire satis
faction and to tile surprise and gratification
of those who saw it opened. You will please
send us another like it, and oblige,
Yours truly, 11 win & Co.
Stick two pins into a sheet of paper,four
inches apart, Take a string that will not
stretch, ten inches long, and tie the ends to
gether at the knot, hold a pencil with the point
on the paper. Move the string around the pins
—keeping the string taut against them. The
pencil marks on the paper will be a true oval.
If you want the oval Hatter shorten the
string, if more in the form of a circle lengthen
it. This rule is a very convenient to be nsed
when framing pictures and hair or fanay
wreaths, or for decoratiion on public occa
sions.

total number in attendance during the year

Last Tuesday afternoon, a little step-son of
Mr Nathaniel Titus, of East Munmoutht,
about six years of age, while at play with an
other boy of about the same age, on the dam
at East Monmouth Mills, fell in and was
drowned: the body wus found soon after, but
life was extinct.
In an old graveyard in one of the cities of
the Kennebec, may be found the following
epitaph :
"Here lies the body of Joaes, a poet,
That in, he thought so, and tried to show it,
Bui before he’d made the world believe it,
The devil called and lie hud to leave it.”
