with the Cabyles shows it to have been very 
severe. Six thousand Cabyle3 being opposed

ing into the depot, and by some means she be¬ 
came frightened and fell across the track. The 
cars were stopped just as the first one touched 
her, but the woman was lakeu up and found to 
be dead. It is supposed that the sudden fright 
caused a rupture of a blood vessel.— Bot'on 
Traveller, Sept. 25. 
Battle with the Indians. 
The last St. Louis Republican says:—The 
Indians will have to be chastised. They are 
becoming exceedingly annoying. Very re¬ 
cently, they commuted so gross an outrage that 
Capt. Stewart, with forty men, was ordered 
out from Fort Riley to chastise them. They 
were pursued, aud encountered at some distance 
on the Platte—the Dragoons being piloted by 
two of the Indians who have so long been con¬ 
fined at, Foit Kearney. Capt. Stewart's party 
took up an advantageous position, and iu the 
fight which foliokilled some ten of the 
enemy, and wounded some fifteen others. 
The same tribe of Iudiaus, it is ascertained, 
killed a family of Mormons, consisting of two 
or three persons, &nd took the mother into cap¬ 
tivity. This news was brought to Fort Riley 
by the Qmahas, and a party of troops dispatch¬ 
ed to overtake them, but the murder had been 
committed too long previous, and they were 
not found.

years’ hard v^’k, without any success, having 
previously^in^.ste'd a small sum in laud. “ A

rison, Westchester county, N. Y., consisting ot 
a population of upwards of 2,000, it is said, 
there is no church, unless the dwelling-like 
meetinghouse of the Quakers may be called one. 
The town has no minister, no lawyer, no doctor 
and no drug store. What is perhaps better 
than all, it has no tavern or rum shop, having 
for years refused to grant a license.

A RARE CHANCE 
TO SECLltE A VALUABLE AGENCY. 
Rights as secured under Letters Patent (recently 
ISSUED) FOR Smyth’s Seif-Acting Bent-Lever Platform 
Scales, can now be secured on application to the Subscriber. 
This invention claims superiority over every other in the 
invariable scientific principle involved, and upon whieh itaets; 
in its undeviating accuracy ; in its lightness and strength ; ia 
its wonderful capacity and convenience of term ; in its perfect 
simplicity, and the tact that any ordinary mechanic can manu¬ 
facture them ; in the absence of any complication liable to va¬ 
riation, or to get out of order ; and finally in the important fact 
that this Scale can be afforded at about one-third tile cost ot any 
other Platform Scale of like capacity and accuracy in use.— 
Possessing in an eminent degree all these merits, this invention 
is conceded to be one of the most useful aud valuable ever 
brought before the public. And coming as it does within the 
reach of all, it cannot but find an unprecedented sale and un¬ 
divided market among farmers, housekeepers, mechanics, mer¬ 
chants, Ac., everywhere, to the exclusion o? every other weigh¬ 
ing apparatus. 
Rights will be placed within the reach of every enterprising 
salesman or business man, and it is believed that seldom, or 
never, were more tempting inducements offered than this inven¬ 
tion affords for the small investment required ; and to a maaof 
ability is presented an opportunity for the realization of easy, 
rapid and honorable wealth, seldom afforded.

the imperfect modes of warming now much in use, we hav6 ta¬
