Mis Olive Catman. Ä ' ISTEBtSTlKO NARRATIVE OF II ES CAPTlV1TV.
j Several weeks ago we gave an account ! (copied from u Sn Francisco paper) of the rescue of a young white girl, Miss 01 ie Oatman, from the Mohave Indians. The Los Angelos Star gives the annexed interesting narrative of Miss Oatman's . , . . , . captivity among tho Apaches, and subsequentlv the Mohaves. It appears that her defenceless situation was entirely re , ... . , spected during her residence among the Indians. After her release was effected, j j she traveled on foot three hundred miles. in ten days, to Fort Yuma, accompanied i only by the Indian guide, Francisco threo days of which time, they were enSj much interest has baon mmifesled f . cantivilr üf 01ive 0al. i i r j man, that wo visited hrr a few days since when she gave us an intelligent ictount of her adventures, which is here embodied. This accouut we obtained only by asking questions, as her timidity and j want of confidence prvented her from giving the details unassisted. Her faculties have been somewhat impaired by ier waT Qr jjfe fcut her friends assured us that in the short timo she has been among them she has mide very perceptitie improvement. wait for other trains to come up, so ns to insure tho safety of the road by numbers. But the Oatmans pushed on, impntientto get through, and met their (ate on the Gila, about two hundred miles from the Colorado. - Olive is rather a pretty girl, with a skin as fair as most persons who have crossed the plains. Her face ii disfigured by tatooed lines on the chin, running obliquely perpendicularly from her mouth. Her arms Tere alio marked in a similar manner by one straight line on each. The operation consisted in punc turing the skin and rubbing a dye or pul verized charcoal into the wounds. It was about funsel when the attack was made, which resulted iu the capture cf herself and her little sister, Mary Ann jpvpu years of age. The Iudiins strip ped her of her shoes and nearly all her cloih'ng her sister had no shoes on at lhe time and thy started off with the ppeed of buses in a northeasterly direction into a mountainous legion. -They traveled all nig'H without resting. At noon next day they stopped a few miuates to breathe, and then hurrif don again until night-fall, when they came into camp. She thinks they traTeled a hundred miles. She was barefoot, and the fharp stones lacerated her feet, and her blood sprinkled the who!i distance. Whenever she hgge d they would come behind her and beat her, to urga her onv Her sister son gave out, but bring small, the Indians carried her in their arms. The reason of their hurrying on so rapidly, was Tear lest they might be pursued. The clothes left to Ur were " worn out, and' fell from her back in two weeks, and ihen sh mittel together the bark of tretS; atud tied ii around her person like tho Indians. ItJ slight covering, but it did not leave her entirely exposed. Among these Apaches Olive supposed they icmiincd one year. At any rate, the same kind of season returned as that when she arrived. Time among the Indians is not noted. If they note it at all, it is only by moons. The country was mountainous, and barien of grass and timber. The Indians live in the 6mall valleys. The girls were treated cruelly among these Indians. They were over, tasked, and when they could not understand. what was said to thorn, they were beaten. There was no timber nor running stream. The only fuel to be had was scattered sage bushes; aad when it raineu the water would collect in the holes of tho rocks, . and these two little girls were compelled to pack all tbe wood and water from long distances npon their backs. ; They felt themselves to be slaves. The Iudians told them they should never see their, friends ngain, and concealed them a much as possible. There was no snow, bat they suffered from the cold in the winter. The Mohaves & Apaches were friends, and sometimes visited each other. It was during oat of these visits that the Mohaves learned of these captive?, and offered to purchase them, lhe Apaches consented, and received in ex change a few pounds of beads, two horses, and two blankets. They vrere ten days traveling, like horses." as she describes . 01 . . V' , lw aavumamoys cguairy, rncu uj
stopping a short time at noon to rest. She thinks they traveled 360 miles in a northwesterly direction. On this journey they ate nothing until the fourth day. when they received a piece. of meat ab ut as large as her hand and this kept them alive. There were
no roots or berries, and they darnl not ask the Indians for food. The Indians would kill such gime as came in their way. but they did not offer it to their captives. She describes them as being too lazy to exert themselves to procure food, and only killing such game as chance brought to them. Her days had thus far been dark, andshe was almost ready to despair. Not an act of kindness nor a word of s mpathy or hope had been addressed to her by her ca ptors, who treated her and her sister as slaves. Arrived among tho Mohaves, the chief whom she clls Esp.ir.asay, took Ihem into his own family, and they were treated in every respect as his own children. The blankets were given to them for covering; food was div'uled with them; they were not obliged to labor, hut did pretty much us they pleased. L?nds were allotted to them, nnd they were furnished with sed3 and raised their own corn, melons, and beans as the Indians did. There is little or no rain at the Colora do, and the Mohaves depend upon the oveiflow of the river for the irrigation necessary to germinate and ripen their harvests. Sometimes there is no overflow of the river, and much suffering follows. The Indians are too indolent to plant more than will sufuce for their actual necessities. Three years ago there was no overllow, and a famine was the consequence, in which many perished. It was in this famine that Olive suffered her greatest grief. Her littlo Bister, Mary Aun, had endured all her captivity with her. They supposed lhat they were alone of their family; they had suffered together the cruelties of the savage; but they had not been separated. They could sympathise with and cheer each other in their dreariness, and sometimes they would whisper together a faint hope of future redemption. But now came the trial. The child wasted away by degrees she knew that sho was to die, and talked calmly of death to Olive. She had no disease but iherfe was no food nd she wasted miserably in the famine that desolated the tribe. Olive herself was uear perishing, bat the strength of.her codstituiion taved her life. She speaks of lhe chief's wife in terms of the warmest gratitude. A mother' could not have expressed more kind hearted sympathy than did this good woman, whose gentle trcatmect saved her life. This woman had laid up seeds to plant, and which pvpn the ilrin? proans 01 tier own neoDiP - -- . --o a i .. n . . V I . . ! a Vi li.inn Mil 1 V ! . the saw Olive's distrces. she ground the corn between stone3, matfo a gruol anJ fed it to her, not reserving any even to h"rj,'f. The Mohaves always told her 6he could go to the white settlements when she pleased, but they dared not go with her, fearing they might ba punished for having krp-t a " white woman so long among them, nor did they dare to let. it bo known that she was amtfttg them. Before the arrival of the Indian messenger charged to release her, she heard of his departure from the fort, by an Indian runner. Her joy was very great, but she forced herself to appear indifferent, lest the Indians should still retain her. She bad little confidence in their sincerity, when they gave her permission to leave them, because they refused to go with her, and they knew she wouldtiot go alone. At Itngth Francisco, the Yuma, arrived w ith the requisition from Colonel Burke for her delivery. The packet was examined by the Indians, but no one understood it. It was written in a bold, round hand, the letters being a third of an inch long. It was the first word of English she had seen for five long weary years, and she could not restrain her emotion. The cold chill of Indian reserve seemed to melt away, and she saw before her mind the old home scenes; and happy voices seemed to welcome ber return. She readily deciphered the meaning cf that rescript, and communicated it to the assembled Indians. . Accompanying it wer six pounds of white beads, four blankets and some other trinkets, to s -f " be given in exchange. These were accepted, and the chiet told her she was at liberty to depart for her. friends. Many oj the Indiana, however, objected to her going, fearing they would be punished as her captors. The chief's wife, the kind wooan who saved her life ia lbs famine, cried a day and a night as if she were losing her own child, and then gave ber up!' With the guide she started' for the fort wilt. .light heart, on foot, as usual.
A Swiss Romance. The Gazeitc de Lausanne tells the following strange story: Prince C , one of lhe principal buyards of Moldavia, and having it is sa id Imperial blood in his veins-, had in his household a child's maid, n young woman of Friburg. A she was a very handsome
gir', the Prince after a while became otltten with her, and not only paid her attention but gave her a number of presents. As howeve'r, he was married, the young woman considered it imprudent to remain in his houso. and she left Moldavia. But absence only increased the pas sion of the Prince, and he followed her to Switzerland. There as a proof of his af fection, ho placed .securities to a lirge amount in the hands of a Banker nt Berne, and directed that they should bn given to the young lady at a futuro peii I. He, ihen, it appears,- formed tho design uf inajrying her, and took measures for having his existing marriage dissolved. These measures necessitated his presence at Moldavia, but ho contrived nevertheless to. pay frequent visits to Switzerland. At length lhe young woman, feaiing her reputation would bo comjrumised by his attentions, consulted some clergymen, and they told her that her marrisge with him would be impossible, for various reasons, and especially on account of the difference of religion: so she determined on marrying a y,u.ng man wno na(l f'll" in love with her. When the marriage was celebrated, she informed the Prince of it. and of her motive of marrying. Tho Prince was greatly exasperated, and an ansrr correspondence ensued. He at length arrived at Friburg, to ascertain, a he diJthat the marriage had been celebrated, he entertaining doubts about it. When satisfied that the young woman was irrevocably lost to him, he brought an action against her before the tribunal of Friburg. to obtain the restoration of the donations which he had made her, amountins; to between 300.00U and 400.000 francs. on the ground, that they had been conferred on the condition of a future marriage, which conditions she had not fufilled. Tho young woman on ber part, contended that tha gifts had been made without any conditions at all; and that she had not married until she had as certained that a marriage between her rind the Prince was impossible. EvenU ally the tribunal dismissed the action. To increase the romantic interest of the affair, it is stated that after the com mencement of the suit, the Prince suc ceeded in obtaining a divorce from his wife, and it is added lhat he his just mar ried a young lady of Belgium. iwari i i s What is Life! The following beautiful description in answer to this question, is from the Rev. Mr. Mount fort' Eulhanacy; The present life is sleeping and wak iug; it is "Good night" on going to bed and "Good morning" mi getting up; it is to wonder what the day wilt bring foilh; it is sunshine and gloominess; it js rain on the window as on sits by the fire; it is to witlk in the garden, and see th flowers open, ind hear the birds sing; i is to hive news from the East, V. es North and South; it i to read old books and new books; it i5 t0 have Sundays; it is tu nray Wjlu n fflmiiy morning and vtning; it is to sit in the twilight and meditute; it is to be well, and sometimes to be ill; it is to have business to do. ani to do it; it is to have breakfast, dinner, and ten; it is to belong to a town nd have neighbors, and 10 be one in a circle of luqtiiininnce s; it is to have a sight of dear old faces; nnd with some men it i to be kissed daily by the same'loving lips lor uty years; and it is to know ihem selves thought of many times a day, and irinany places, by children. ß'nüchildrep, nnd mauy f'iends: The Blessed Baby Punch, in his last issue, is decidedly increasing the strength ol his dabs at the trench, now that the special entente cordiale is abolished by the treaty of peace,. and each lub is in future to stand on its own bottom. Perhaps the reported proscription of the publication in France may have had a ten dency to bring about an extra allowance of cream of tartar, instead of the genuine lemon of the spicy compound. Ridicule and satire abound. A lew extracts: Windsor Castle was ihrown into a bit of a flutter,' last week upon the receipt of the following telegraphic dispatches from the Tulleites: v . 'The-Emperor has forbidden the wet nur6e to kiss the baby! Scarcely had the emotion of the castle subsided, when a second dispatch was flashed to it on lightning wings, to the fallowing effect: , 'The Emperor has forbidden the nurse to say. catchy-catchy to .the imperial infant. A third dispatch following with all possible rapidity: .. .' . The. Emperor bas forbidden thejiurse to tickld the.child of France on pain "of instant disraisssl' " A fourth; , ' ' ' . . . The Emperor has forbidden the nurse at any period, to ride a cock horse to the Prince Jnipen'al, under pain of banishment to Cayenne. ' ' A fifth dispatch: - a The Arch bicbop of Patis has been sent for to Administer the oath to the wet nurse: wta vows she wilt-not " kiss the book not to kiss the baby, r f - V ' A sixth dispatch; .

'His Imperial Highness clinches his

The nurse refuses, and, folding her arms throws up her situation, unless allowed to salute his Imperial Highness. who grows bluer and bluer. The fither filters and the Emperor melts! The biby is given to the nurse. Mid one kiss per dies: is graciously per mitted.' Always do Right. The truly great are those who do what m 1 i a is rigiit. io oe tirierreu irom acting wiöely Btd conscientiously, by motives of temporary policy or fear, is to behave not only like a coward, but like a traitor to ihe principles of justice. A man thould think less what maybe said of his con- j duct at the time, than of the verdict that may bo pronounced a few yeais after ward. It is by neglecting this, by sacrilicing principle to expediMicy that character ouce tost is with difficulty regained. Besides, the first decline from right leads to others. It 16 like the start sliJins down a hill. But there is a worse feature than even this in succumbing to baseness, meanness, . 1 1 f . i a or wrong, iiaou soon onus tne moral perceptions, so that, in tune men come, to perpetuate, without a remorseful püii. acts at which originally they would have been astounded. "Is thy servant a dog, lhat he should do this thing?', is tl.- indignant exclamation of many a person, who eventually commits the very deed he abhorred. Arnold's treason grew up in his mind by slow degrees, matured by extravagance and supposed neglect. Washington, by always being rigidly correct, even in the smallest a lairs, left behind a name that will never cease to be reverenced. To say merely that 'honesty is the best policy." and thus appeal to the selfish part of our nature, is n poor way to educate a mMi to do right conscientiously. Better the nobler and higher ground that-. right should be don for right's sake. Pkila, Ledger, 1 SewDIsrasc. During the last cholera season a new caught Dutchman made his advent into the city of New Orleans, and set forth in quest of a boarding house. He inquired of the first one he saw if they had the cholera in the house. The reply was Yes" and Datchy "moved his boots." He asked the same question and received the same answer at three or four others. Finally b"e foand a landlord that assured him that he had no cholera in his house, and there the Dutchman concluded to tarry awhile. The Inndlnrd was a pious mnn, and always had family worship before separating for the (tight. According to the custom, therefore, the family assembled for prayer. During the process of the exerrise, the 'pter familins" groaned, and up popped Putrhy, with Oh. Lord! vol ish malterT NothUig,,t fnys the hosi; and the Scriptures went on.

Elihu Burritt says; I love to see one of these creatures, with sinews of brass, and muscles of iron, start forth from his smoky stable, and. saluting the long train of cars with a dozen sonorous puffs from his iron nostril?, fall back gently into his harness.
