There are silences that seem
Into sadness falling;
There is not another rose

So that everybody knows.

Something sweet discloses;
And if in your heart lias grown
Truth to fairer blowing.

PCYALLI I', Sept. IH, 187?
lit*. INTXLLIGF.NCER: — There are
acres of Indian camps scattered through
the hop fields here, and a trip through
them by moonlight is a most interest
ing sight The bright lire-t blazing in
every direction, liidiun*, squaws and
children lying around them in every
positiou, according to their notions of
comfort, while the inevitable Indian
dogs, by the score, bay the moon most
lustily. Hi re and there amongst them
their Indian game is in progress: a
dozen or more si washes sijuatting
around on a board, howling their loud
est, pounding it witbjsticks, and umk
ing a most infernal dm. A pile of sil
ver h oil the board and they win or
lose it by guessing in which hand the
dealer holds a painted bone The loser
holds the bone almost every time.
The Chines* camps ure less numer
otis, but are moro orderly and quiet and
much cleaner. They are sitting around
their camp-fires smoking and quietly
chattering in their native tongue, and
some ure in their tents sleeping, the
bright moon shining in on theiu j
through the open ways. Above their
heads the tall Cottonwood trees with
their fast withering foliage and bare
branches stretch upwards, patiently
waiting for the new life which in llis
good time is sure t> come, making a
fellow almost curse the civilization that
compels him to pay four lits for the
privilege of stretching his weary limbs
HI a dark room by the light of a tallow
dip, and tight animate nature all night.
The 1 ittto town of l'uyallup on 81111-
day morning was swarmed with In
dians on horseback and afoot, all
dressed iu their Sunday best. I learn
a race is te> take place 011 tlie other side
of the river so thither I wend my way;
the ro«d was thronged with Indians all
the way; the ferry boat across the river
is strung on a wire cable, and is a great
convenience to the public and u great
source of revenue to its owner. Yes
terday was it field day for it. The lace
truck is a straight liOU-yard track in an
open licld, the sand is from three to six
inches deep on it. Arriving there, one
of the strangest scenes 1 ever witnessed
was lie fore mo. There must have been
tive hundred Indians there at one time
dressed in a variety .if costume that no
country in the world but this can pro
duce. All over the plain they are
scat tern I in groups gambling or run
ning their ponies at reckless speed
through tlm crowd; yet all seemed
good iiatured and happy. The squaws >
Usually sat by themselves Some were
knitting, some nursing and all gossip
ing and good natured. A number ol
gamblers, chully from Seattle, have
their g:iiues nattered around -the
ground, ehuckalui k being the principal
one, as the Indians can more readily
understand it, and they ail have money
nod will gamble.
A l irge number ot Indian* are here
fioiu Klickitat, aud they are the finest
b>oking tpecimeiis of the red man 1 ever
»*\v They are tall, straight us an ar
row, cleanly dressed 111 their native and
most picturesque costume of breech
cloth and leggings, buck-skin mocca
sins, aud their bright colored blanket
doubled and fastened in graceful folds
around their waist with a sa>.h. They
have the bright, keen eye, high cheak
(tones, aquiline noae and receding fore
heai (Which is not covered with hair)
that we used to read of when children.
There i» no superfluous flesh on any af
them, but they look as agile as a pan
ther. Nearly all wear largo shell car
tings. aud their gnrments are decorated
according to their rank or prowess,
after the Indian custom. Their squaws
wear leggings and uiotcasins, with a
short skirt, aud cleau, bright blankets
thrown gracefully around their shoul
ders. They are all painted, not daubed,
a* our Indians, with a bright veruiii
lion fut on evenly over their frncv*.
after the fashion of our peop.e, and
more of it. Cue motherly looking
Mjuaw, with a family of grown children
around her. had her hair powdered
white, an 1 her face, which had a perfect
European cast, was (tainted red. She
was standing lieside one of her sons,
who was losing all his money at monte
with our Indians.
Tfce down Sound Indian*, with an
eye to butiueM, were peddling Al»alone
shells amongst their brethren from ever
the mountains, while wandering togeth
er in pairs over the fields on foot, or ou
the road on horseback, were cwipb»
paired, but uot mated, smiling through
their paint, the sickly »o»ile which lie
tokens the old, old »tory. it •
motley crowd and ona 1 shall not »oon

forget, the galloping korses and their
yelling rtders the bright color? and
ttic picturesque costumes of the Indians,
the gamMers calling tht-ir gnaiej with
stentorian voice, and the perfect freedom
from esre or restraint which seemed to
pervade them.
At night the Indian* had a ball iu
a hall th»y had built for the purpose.
It »i< a respectable ball— no Indian
dance —and the way they all mi
through the figures in a quadrille was
better than any ordinary country ball
room crowd could do it There was no
laii'-s' dressing room, Dor was there
need for any. When a »qu»w's bot.t
became untied, she just sat down, swung
her foot'over her knee, and tied it; if
her only skirt became unfastened, she
stopped the dance and fastened it. As
for bursting hooks and eyes, that don't
occur amongst the squaws, they use
buttons, and their dresses are the same
size all the way down. Cider and root
beer were for sale oa the ground, in
which they participated liberally, all
having plenty of money. An Indian
deputy sheriff was here, with one or
two constables, a very commendable
precaution, as otherwise the Indian*
won Id be roblj->d. More anon.
D
There is a feeling of jealousy that
seems to Lie innate in snuie natures.
There are many persons who can nei
ther look with pleasure nor approbation
on the successful accomplishments of
their neighbors, ami if by honest worth
one struggles to achieve an unblemished
reputation, there are hundreds ever
anxious and ready to pick flaws both in
his personal character and business re
lations, their motives being pram | ted
by no reasonable prejudice but rather
impelled by their inordinate selfishness
and envy. If a man just starting in
life, with buoyant hopes and laudable
ambition, struggles to assert his mental
and moral supremacy, there is often a
strong feeling created against him, and
many jealously exclaim, "I'ut him
down," as if one born to low estate had
no right to rise above the level iu which
he was cie&ted. Would it not in the
brotherhood of man, seem more like
Christian charity to aid the soul that
struggles to enlargo itself?
