Jtcr o oLPH , 6rr *a. ¦ - i from the prairie 1 mnile a lire , got rea dy my co l Vc e , t rn tl rested for two hours. Then I set out to rench t ii v ot ' uvr side of tho range , where 1 v.oultl oitlier slaj b y until night or push on for La ramie , accordin g as tho s i g ns indicated. The jki ss fur tho first half mile wns fair enou g h , for a wa s oti. After that , it was Ee a rcel y p os s i lii c fur a s addlu horse to make his way. It was difficult to tell which was the m ain ) >»ss and which tho bronch us , and when tilintit half way over the mountain 1 catno to a spot where I was completely stuck. Ti n > pass I had l ipen following was now split into three , e ach ono seeming to bo thu main puss, and , as there was nothing to R tiido me , 1 had to taUo on e of them a t a ven- ture. If it was not tho right one , I must re- turn itml tafco another . 1 went to tli o left , and , after « oing a few rods , found the pa ss or cut over g rown with bushes , an:l b r ully f ront t - .veh-o \to tirenty feet wide , t wisting alwilt like a c reek , but gra duall y leading up- ward. Tlio liei g l l t of the bank on eacli side was from fifty to two hundred feet , and tlio /itountii iii was so densely wooded that the pat h \ its m scini-darkncss . I g ot my horse over the obstructions which blocked the way and proceeded on for half a mile without fiiu(iu£ any Rival change in tho gener al character of the pa-ss. Then it sud- denl y swerved lo the fed and debouched into a cove of about two acres in extent , which na ture had so walled in that the most agile Indian would have been put to Ilis trumps to flnd u r pot where the wall could bo scaled It would have been mure in keep ing with na ture and the surroundings had tlio cove been full of water , as .small lakes of thai kind are fi - ei fiieii. ' lv found in il:e mountnii i s , but it was not onl y solid earth , but so fertile that the sweet li ras s was knee high and there were (lowers without number. Before setting fool Oil the gi\. - vS • ' taw that this was the end of the j ku-s I hail followed , ami th at 1 1:111st re- turn. I \li'Ct i ' il to let l!ie horse gnu u for <. whil e , ho wever , ami it was only after I had turned liini loose that I ca u ght si ght of wha t a pj» .iir«l 10 he sis enngrant wagons standing against the fur t liui wall . I was not sure ot t hvir clir.rc.cter until 1 had made half the dis tau ce , and it was onl y when I got close up that 1 discovered wli r liiey looked so queer The ir cnavasto;. , |.n,l turccd black and rotted away, and were now iii rags and streaming out in the breeze. The woodwork of the wagons had turned gray, the tires of the whii'ls had ru sted until tho i ron was almost eaten away , and when I took hold of the hind wheel 0! one of the vehicles and gave it a shake the spufce s fell and the wagon came crashing down amid a cloud of dust. T here was so t iietllhi:: so grow- some and mysterious hi my find Hint I wanted to run away, [ should have b. - - n no more surprised to l ind a steamboat restiae; tUore. Xo emi grant had yet dared penetra te so far into the Indian country in that direction , and it wa> farawnv from the overland trail to C ' alifor t i ia. The prc c nee of fh - i.o i vago t is meant a tragedy, iui-1 1 s v as loth to beg in an investi- gation. I walked about the cove seeking to br ace my courage , and a fe w yards In-vicid the wagons I ea t r.e v. - . ' nn a heap of bone. - which 1 knew to have belonged to horses or entile. A bit further on a huge firep lace lia ' l l u- ei i coi i slruetcd of loose stones against the face of a oil ft\ , and the tt noke had blackened liie wall for a . I Mawoof forty feet from the ground. There was no si gn of the presence of any human being. It had l ieen a long time sinc e the Uut tiro was buiit , as the grass n; as growing among the ashes and embera Tlio key to the m yttf i - y must bo hidden in the wagons , and I returned to overhaul them. Yuti can hardly reali s e Ilia lone. -ome lo ok of th ose vehicles. They were standing one be- hind the other as closely as tliey coul.l be drawn, and the s i ght of them was proof that years had gone b y since they were parked there . 1 sh ould say that it would take at le ast ten yea rs to bring about such decay as I s aw in them. They were largo and heavy, made of the best material!. , and yet a shake would have brought any of them to the ground. I began with tho lit' :! wagon , and i can easily recall the contents of each. The lirst wagon was piled full of harnesses , or th e re- ma ins of tliem. Time and deca y had left little e x cept tlio buckles ' , and they were badly rus ted, i should say the heap contained the harnesses of at least a do z en teams . In the second wagon were a chest , two iron kettles , a jug, and a lin n p of moid which probabl y represented e l oUiing. I hauled tho chest out and kicked it apart , but tho contents had gone ta mold , except in the case of fifty Mexican silver dollars , which had probabl y lieen in a bucks ' : in bag The third wagon alse held a chest , !cit I found nothing of value in it. 1 found in tins wagon tho rusted re mains of seve: - :d p i\* ks and . -hovels and hea ps of mold which represented either clothing or pr ovisions . The fourt h wagon u vh e ut pty Tho fifth contained p icks and shovels and a rough wooden bo:: . I' rom this box 1 rescued a small one m ade of tin , and I bro ke that ope n to find i- 10 in state bank bills , a rude mapcvidenll y le pivv . - nt inc: the Copper mount- ains mid nei g hborhood , and f our live dollar American gold p ieces. The lifth wagon had evidentl y be en stored with provisions , but I found nothing but mold. I« tho sixth were threo diesis , two sh ovels , three pieks , the barrel of a rifle , a rusty ax and a keg which held whisky. In one of the three big t > rv;;es I found a silver tobacco box containing S C iG in Mexican sold and a note or descri ption. It hud been writ- ten on heav y paper and with good ink , but some of t ho words hail faded entirely away and others hod to be guessed. Tho following Is tho copy I made of it upon my return to . Fort Laramie : 1 » • • there will ? • * about twenty, and in • • * you should take precautious • * * , Have Captalu Jim see that » • • powder and lead * « • three mouths or more * • • same general direction • • * abou t due north from • • » must net for * * • sha ll ex pect * • • from mau I send. Tlio letter was unsi gned , and so much of it was illegible that \vu could only guess ut the 1 general tenor. There had been a private ex- pedition from Kansa s years before. The party had sought shelter in tho mountain valley. They had killed a portion if not all their live stock for food. Then tho men had departed , but never 0110 had returned to civilization to tell the vale. All may have been wi ped out in the main pass or ut tho base of the mountain , or some may uavo died in the cave. Had the- Indians over found the wagons they would Imvo p lundered and burned them. Tlio fact that they had not 1 only deepened the mystery.

M«. Editoi: , — Dear Sir : —1 wish , by j 'our kindness , to say a few earnest; words to the readers ' of your valuable paper , words which should interest every voter without respect to party. As the Pall elections are near at hand , and the man , or me n , who profess a very warm sympath y for our welfare , and bea m upon you with an E leetrie, Li«ht smile , and after election forgets that you are of any account , will soon be around with his little hatchet , to t jrind , and will b y his eloquence , ind tt cft _ v4js| r yo tr C i ^ r ^ ibleT ^ b ' - ' ^ afn ^^ e ' ^ sl S nei 1 ^ ? ^ while be does the grinding. Are you a laboring man? And do yon honest- l y wis h to better your condition ? Ara 3 - ou educating yourself up to the re- Hiiirement s of the times , so that yon will be able to vote intelli gentl y, for men and measures '? O r are you de - . p ending on what some political wire puller may tell you. The time is now , (not is c oming,) that voters who hon- e stl y desire an honest conduct of the affa i rs of the State , shall demand that only men of strict integrity be nomi- n a ted to t i ll th e o ffic e s , and who will execute the laws a s passed . We can only jud ge men and parties b y t h eir pas t history . .Men make the party, and their acts make its history . The rank and f ile of the voters are the ones that elect men to office , and thus become re- sponsible for their oi l icial acts. There is no excuse for ignorance at this time of our political history. The grea t public educator , the Press , is within Hi the reach of all. Very true , unprinci- pled partisans , may attempt to smirek the character of an honest opponent , - but it will be just as futile as for sedi- t ment to attemp t to find a resting place I in the rap ids of the Xiagara. Eternal \ vi gilance is the price of honest elec- I t ions. Honest majority should always ! rule , but it often happens that dis- 1 honest majorities are made possible, by ! a failure of men to exercise their priv- < ilege at the polls , and there by allowing I the election to so bv default. Everv . -! election has something new , or leading to princi p les of vital import to the ' community at large. We claim to be a Nation of Freeman , an d so we are '' as regards t i i c holding of human be- ings as chattels. Hut any man that cannot go to the polls and cast his yote without let or hindrance , and as his conscience dicates to be right , is a slave to some of the various causes j that operate against self government. There are a number that often act as I f a c t o rs in prev e nting a f r e e exercise o f j a poor man ' s ri g hts , and one more than ' any other , and of tener used about elec- j lion time is intoxicating li quor , and is | used b y unprinci pled pol i ticians vrilh — ' terrible effect , for b y its use they can mi s l e a d th eir victims , t o do and say what they would scorn to do , if clothed and in their rig ht minds. It is then A tha t a man becomes a slave and will- JO ing servant of the agents of a demon *^ H who will never allow an opportunity ^ 1 to sli p of riveting the chains of serf- 1 doni more securel y. Voters you will I linu that the majority of the wealth y 1 are opposed to the advancement of the xH p our , beyond a bare subsistanee. Thus WM wealth becomes ; i tremendous lever in ^| the hands of d es i gning men , which of- |H ten compels the poor man to vote con- ^ M trary to bis convictions. An honest 0J poor man should ever demand that the 19 rich man obey the same laws that are WM enacted for himself, tio to the Prima- Mi ries it is not only your privilege but C | your duty. They are the springs that (M supp l y the fountain , see to it that all MJ i s pure , d elegate to men who you know j HJ to be of strict integrity, th e power to fl9 spea k for you , and above all , instruct WM them to stand for truth and honest WM\ princi p le s.

It was im possible for any one to secure figures Men w u rc butchered sing ly, in pairs and b y lives and tens along a frontier a thousand miles in length , and not one case in ten was ever record ed in the public prints . It w as the beginning of the end , and live yea rs ago the power of the red man was broken aud la- wns compelled lo yield lo the inevitable. I was sent to I - ' oi ' t I ^i ra mie , in Wyoming territory, earl y in t he summer of I5il. \ > , Inn - ing a ccepted the position of government scout , and I held that position all through the tr oubles of tho next four years. It may be inferred , therefore , th at I had my full share of close calls and narro w escapes. As soon as fresli troops arrived at that and other forts , and the work of subduing the Indians began in earnest , every red skin who could handle a gun was put into tho field. Indeed , boys no more than 12 years of age , mined w ith bows and arrows, had the opportunity to show t heir mettle , and I know of severa l fights in which the younger squaws tool; part. It was a cm of do or die with the In dian , and ho sacrificed his prido and his legends that ho migh t hold his own against tho white soldiers. 1 carried dispatches be- t ween Julesburg and Laramie, and between Laram ie and Fort Ketterman , and outside of th is accompanied detached bodies on exicdi tions or scouted on my own account. There was never a day of re st , and never a day when one fel t sure that ho would live to see tho sun go down. Soldiers were killed within a mil e of live gat es of Ihe fort , and th e p lace was so constantly under sur veillance that it was hardly pos sible to get i:i or out without bein g tired upon. Tho s trangest adventure of the whole war befell mo in July, 1S0C , and Uiero was a mys tei y con nected with it which has not been solved to this day. 1 had been out with a de laehed command of 1K0 cavalry, which had scouted along tho north fork of the Platte ea st from Laramin to the Coo j ier mounta ins. These mountains aie tho beg in- ning of Ibo Black Hills chain. On tho east side of tho mountains w e t urned to tho north , rodo for two days a ' - j ut tho cav alry then mado a halt for a day a tt d retired to Jul es- bu rg. The object was to cover as much ter- ritory as possible and g ive the Indians to un- derstand that wo were ag gressive. 1 had to report to t lio commander of Fort Laramie , and instead of returning and ascending the Platto , I decided to try for a pass through tho Copper mountain s , my fellow scou ts hav- ing told me that several existed, i lef t tlio cavalry camp soon after dark , it being about twenty miles east of the mountains. Wo had been dogged by Indians tor two days , and 1 made my start at ni g ht to throw them off the scent. I hud a jet black horse , speed y and intelli gent , and the risk was not so great , providing I did not run into a small band b y ac cident. For the first two miles oat of camp 1 walked my horse , both of us watchin g and list ening. His senses \ were s harper than mine , aud ail of a sudden ho came to a dead halt and pointed his nose to tho west , like a dog flushing a bird. That meant danger . lie had b een trained down line l i eforo 1 got him , aud was to bo dopeude t l on as much us if ho could speak. I was no sooner off his back than ho l ay down , and i had scarcel y crouched beside him when I ' a ree Indians , mounted on ponies and heading to tho east , passed us to too ri g ht on a walk. The near- est one was not over ten feet . away , and \ plainl y scented tho tobacco from his pipe. Tho ground wa s broken , with masses of rock outcroppin g hero aud there , and it would havo taken sharp eyes to detect us even nt that short distance. 1 heard them mumble and mutter as they passed ou , and not until ten minutes after the footsteps of the ponies died away in the distance did we rise and proceed. Had my horso been on tha gallop, or had ho been ten seconds later in discover- ing tho redskins , I mi g ht not have got away. Half an hour after daylight , having met with no further adventure , I was at the base-of the mounta ins , striking the range -seventeen miles from its southern end , and nt a p lace which has sinco been named Crook' s Puss. I had Uttla fear ot finding Indians In the mountains , unless it was a body passing through the gap. Am soon as I was secure A little g irl , two years of age belong- ing to Mrs. Frederick Wilds , of Jamai- ca , was found dead in an out house last week Tuesday , having fallen into the hole.
