As near as I can recollect at this distance of time, we received a small ration of bread, with a glass of spirits, as we stood by our horses, waiting the order to mount. The last of our army, including the heavy artillery, had gone by some little time, whenâ€"Bang i went a gun from the French, instantly an- swered by one of the English field-pieces still in position. “They’re waking up at last,” was the remark in the ranks. Then began a tremendous din, of some half-hour’s duration, during which you could hardly hear yourself speak, so great was the uproar. 1 saw, with my own eyes, one of our guns dismounted. A twelve--pound shot struck the _off wheel, shattering it toÂ¥frag. ments. It then glanced off and struck the limber. making the splinters fly in all direc- tions, killing and wounding every one near. “ This is too hot to last,” every one near me said ; and so it was, for soon the firing ceased as if by mutual consent. Our own guns we could see limbering up and galloping off. “Now's our time," said Sam, throwing back his hanging jacket. “ Hussars, mount 1’ from the Colonel. We were in our saddles in a moment. The next orders brought us into the open ground from behind the cover where we had been concealed, and there faci )g us when we had formed line were the French. It was a splendid cuiras- sier regiment, coming forward at a walk from being obliged to break their ranks to pass their own guns. A martial set of fel- lows they were truly, all steel and hair; their fierce faces were halfcovered with hair, and horse hair streamed down their backs from their helmets, like the style adopted by young ladies at the present day. They were mounted uan powerful, large-boned horses. I should judge that we were about fifty yards’ distant from them. When fairly face to face a thrilling, simultaneous “Hurrah bloke from our ranksâ€"not a threat was silent. Oh, what a moment it wa‘ I My poor withered body trembles with the remembrance. Every man’s heart was in that cheer. A few hotrse shouts of "Viva l’EmpereurI” were all I could hear from the French before the trumpets on both sides, sounded. Then our colonel found his tongue. “Forward, charge I” ina voice. of thunder. It rings in my ears now. In a few moments we were upon them. Such a rain of sword flashes you never saw. My immediate an- tagonist was a tall fellow on a dappled horse, a quartermastei, or something of the kind. I supposed 1 had swerved my mare a little to the left to save her shoulder; out, not- withstanding that, the shock nearly threw me out of the saddle. Another thing was, that Peggy had snapped, as she galloped up, at the neck of the French horse, and held a piece of it between her teeth. Then there was such a shaking of manes and prancing that we human fighters had as much as. we could manage to keep our seats. The cuirassier was grinding his teeth and swearing in his foreign way; for every out which he aimed at Peggy to make her loose her hold, was parried by me immediately, though the force of the blows, which nu'nbed my arm to the shoulder, showed me that I had no chicken to deal with. At length the French horse set him- self free, but for all that I could get no nearer to his master, as the creatures com- menced rearing and sparring With their fore- feet like boxers. Finally (I do not know whether to be proud or sorry) a sudden plunge of Peggy placed me above the French- man, and enabled me to cut him in the face with a back-hander. He sank stupefied on his horse’s neck, and I saw no me re of him. These circumstances occurred with such rapidity, that a very few minutes were occu- pied. In those few minutes a crisis had oc- curredâ€"we were retiring. With our light horses, we might as well have charged against a stone wall as against those cuiras- siers. We were forced back by sheer weight. In retreating 1 found myself along side Joe Goblins. “Captain’s taken,” said Joe. “And Sam 7” I asked. I‘Down, and cut to pieces,” was the reply. “Look there 1” it was poor Sam’s riderless horse aligning with me, the saddle red with blood. “Look out l” a. mixed Joe. It was time I did look out, for the next moment my brass chin-strap, and half my left ear wit-h it, was divided by a crappo cuirrasser, who was cutting at me over Sam’s horse, as if I had been a round of beef. One of my hostler pistols settled that gentleman 'â€"greatly to my reliefâ€"for I could not have done it with my swordâ€"arm.â€"“T}w story of a Recruit,"from the People’s Magazine.

C IIARGES IIODERATE RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, CANADA, FRIDAY, MAY. 17, 1872, D. C. O'BRIEN, Notice. iâ€"tf It is when the Dwari‘s country is reached that the narrative possesses the most novel interest. 5‘ How strange the houses of the Dwarfs seemed," says the author.” The length of each house was about that 01 a man, and the height was just enough to keep the head of a men irom touching the roof when he was seated. The materials used in building were the branches of trees bent in the form of a bow, the ends put into the ground, and the middle branches being the highest. The shape of each house was very much like that of an orange cut in two. The frame- work was covu red with large leaves, and there were little doors which did not seem to be more than eighteen inches high, and about twelve or fitteen inches broad. Even the Dwarfs must have lain almost flat on the ground in order to pass through. When I say door I mean simply an opening, a hole to go through. It was only a tiny doorâ€"way. But I managed to get inside one of these strange little houses, and I found there two beds, which were as curious as everything else about the premisics. Three or four sticks on‘ each side of the but were the beds. Each bed was about eight inches, or, at the most, ten inches in width, One was for the wife and the other for the husband. A little piece of wood on each bed made the pillows. It was almost pitch dark inside, the only light coming from the opening or door.” We shall proceed to quote from the adventures among the inhabitants described by the author, and upon which the reader will form his own opinion; adding a remake] e passage or two from the narrative relating other parts of M. du Chaillu’s remarkable travels: “In order to make sure, I came again to the door, and shouted, ‘Nobody here?’ The same silence. I lay flat on the ground, put my head inside the door, and again shouted, ‘Nobody here?’ It was so dark inside that, coming from the light, I could not seeI so I extended my arm in order to feel if there was any one within. Sweeping my arm from left to right, at first I touched an empty bed, composed of three sticks; then, feeling carefully, I moved my arm gradually toward the right, whenâ€"hallo] what do I feel ? A leg l which I immediately grabbed above the ankle, and a piercing shriek startled me. It was the leg of a human being, and that human being a Dwarf! I had got hold of a Dwarf! ‘Don’t be afraid; the spirit will do you no harm,’ said my Ashango guide. ‘Don’t be airaid,’ I said in the Ashango language, and I immediately pulled the creature I had seized by the leg through the door, in the midst of great excitement among my Commi men. ‘A Dwarf l’ I shouted, as the little creature came out. ‘A woman! I shouted againâ€"4a pigmy l’ The little creaâ€" ture shrieked, looking at me. ‘Nchcnde l nchcndcl 11chendc 1’ said she. ‘Ohl oh! oh! Yo! yo ! yo I and her piercing wail r_-nt the air. What a sight! I had never seen the like. ‘ What l’ said I, ‘now I do see the Dwarfs of Equatorial Africaâ€"the Dwarfs of Homer, Herodotusâ€"the Dwarfs of the an- cicnts.’ How queer the little old woman looked l How frightened she was 1 She trembled all over. She was neither white nor black; she was of a yellow or mullato color. ‘ What a little head l what a little body I what a. little hand l what a little foot I’ I eaclaimed. ‘ Oh, what queerâ€" looking halr ’ said I, bewildered. The hair grew on the head in litt;e tufts apart from each other, and the face was as wrinkled as a baked apple. I cannot tell you how de- lighted I was at the discovery. So, giving my little prize to one of the Ashangos, and ordering my Commi men to catch her if she tried to run away, I went to the other little dwelling where I thought I had seen another of the Dwarfs hide herself. The two little huts stood close together. I shouted. ‘No- body here ? ’ No answer. Then I did what I had done before, and, getting my head inside of the but through the door, again shouted, ‘Nobody here?’ No answer. I moved my right hand to see if I could feel anybody, when, 101 I seized a leg, and immediately heard a shriek. I pulled another strange little Dwarf out of the door. It was also a woman, not quite so old as the first, but having ex- actly the same appearance. The two Dwarf- women looked on each other, and began to cry and sing mournful songs, as if they ex- pected to be killed. I said to them, ‘Be not freightenedl’ * * For the first time I was able to look carefully at these little Dwarfs. They had prominent cheek-bones, and were yellow, their faces being exactly of the same color as the chimpanzee ; the palms of their hands were almost as white as those of white people; they seemed well proportioned, but their eyes had an untamable wildness that struck me at once; they had thick lips and flat noes, like the negroes; their foreheads were low and narrow, and their cheek bones prominent ; and their hair which grew in little, short tufts, was black, with a reddish tinge." ~" ‘When an Obongo dies,’ said my Ashango friend, ‘there is great- sorrow among the Dwarfs, and the men are seut'into every part of the latest to find a tall tree which is be]. low at the top. If they find one, they come back to the settlement and say, ‘We have found a tree with a hollow.’ Then the peo- ple travel into the forest, guided by the man who has found the hollow tree, and taking with them the body of the dead Obongo. When they have reached the spot some of them ascendzthe tree, carrying with them creepers to he used as cords for drawing up the body, and the corpse is then drawn up and deposited in the hollow, which is immediately filled with earth, and dry leaves, and the twigs of trees’--‘But’ said I, ‘big hollow trees, such So night comes fmm her silent. habitation At the bright day’s recreacing; 80, too, the e.der night makes visitation, milling the pulse's beating; And, through her sm'mw and her desolation, Night, unto nigh t gives greet} 11g.

HOW THE DWARFS BURY THE DWARFS. Du Clmlllu Among the Dwar â€"A. T. F REED, in Lakeside Magazine. CATCHING A FEMALE DWARF. Dreams. ITS. “THE ISLAND or Pmss.”-â€"â€"The Island of Pines has memories of Captain Cook and of La Pel‘ouse to make it interesting, and its present condition is curious. The population numbers 800, and their ruler, implicitly obeyed and respected, is a young girl, called the Queen. The natives are all Catholics, they wear clothes, they have a stone church, and a. school, under the direction of some “Sisters,” and the following conversation gives a notion of the progress which such a state of things represents. M. Garnier hav. ing secured the aid of a clever native as pi- lot, hunter and fisherman, in all which (a. paeities he was indefatigable, led him to talk of the ancient customs of his tribe; and having introduced the topic of anthropop. hag], said to him: “But why should you eat the Kanaks ?’, “Because,” he replied, “Kanak is good to eat, as good as pig or cow.” I then tried to make him understand how our nature revolted against such food, but my eloquance was completely thrown away. A long series of objections on the part of my friend and reasonings on mine led him to this conclusion zâ€"‘ I under- stand you have plenty of meat; you make war, and let the dead rot. The people of the Island of Pines and of Ouen,’ he pro- ceeded, ‘never ate the great personages of their tribe, even after they had been killed, because they were too old, but at Kanak they had not the same scruples.’ They ate infants when they were ill-formed, when the family was too numerous, or the father out of health and unable to go to the fishing. When it was decided that the poor child was to die, the father and mother brought it im- mediately after its birth to the edge of the sea, washed it, and roasted it in the earth, as these people roast taros and iguanas (as gipsies in England cook hedge-hogs, in fact) ‘And this did the mother a great deal of good,’ said the savage, who sincerely regret- ted, in common with many of his tribe, the good old times.” M. G-arnier commends,with reason, this gentleman’s H philosophe naive inimitable.” l “Poor Mayolo really had a hard time with 3his diflerent doctors. He was continually cL anging them, and they came from all the adjacent villages. At last he gave up the men doctors, and had a celebrated female coctor, an old wrinkled woman, who had gaineda great reputation. The visit of a. physician among these people is very 1‘ u- like that of a physician at home. This female doctor was a very singular person. She appeared to be about sixty years of age, and was short, and tattooed all over. When she came to make her visit she was dressed for the occasion. Her body was painted, and she carried a. box filled with charms. When Mayolo ex- pccted her he was always ready, seated on a mat, and with a genetta skin by him. The female doctor would come in muttering words which nobody could understand; then she would rub Mayolo’s body with her hand, and mark his forehead with the chalk on the alumbi; then she made a broad mark with the chalk on his chest, and drew stripes the whole length of his arms, muttering unintel- ligibly all the time; she then chewed the leaves of some medicinal plant, and spat the juice over Mayolo’s body, especially on the affected part, near the heart, still muttering magical words. After- ward she lighted a bunch of a peculiar kind of grass and as it burned, made the flames almost touch the body of poor May- 010. Two or three times it seemed as if the fire was burning him. She began the fire» ceremony at the sole of his foot, gradually ascending to the head, and when the flames ceased, she made the smouldering fire touch his person. When I asked her why she used lire, she said it was to prevent disease going into Mayolo’s b0( ' from the outside.” EATING THE MONKEYS. “ The monkeys were delicious, and so plentiful in the woods near Mayolo’s village that we could have them whenever we pleased. It was in the season when they were fat. The nechegai, the nkago, the miengai, and the ndova were also abundant, and we enjoyed eating them, for those creatures seemed, in the months of April and May, to be nothing but halls of fat. It was the time of the year, too, when . the forest trees bore most fruit, berries, and nuts. The miengai and the indova were the species of animals which I preferred for food. I defy any one to find nicer venison in any part of the world. A haunch grilled on a bright charcoal fire was simply delicious. -Borrible l’ you will say; ‘the idea of eating monkeys! It is perfectly dreadiul l’ and at the same time I am sure you will make a face so ugly that it would frighten you if you were to look at yourself in the glass. You must say, ‘Oh, a roast monkey must look so much like a roasted little baby! Fie l’ Never mind. I can only say that if ever you get into the forests of Equatorial Africa, and taste of a monkey in the season when those animals are fat, you will exclaim with me, ‘What delicious and delicate food! how ex- quisite l’ As I am writing these lines, the recollection of those meals makes me hungry. I wish I had a monkey here, ready for cock- ing.” â€"-Sixteen statues have been ordered of se- lected sculptors to complete the Scott monu- ment at Edinburgh. â€"A polar expedition is projected under the auspices 91: they quql Geogrgaphica} 7 Society LLord Inchiqui-s has esfabiished his right to vote at the election of representative peers for Ireland. ._Logan, the author of “Scottish Gael,’ and other works, has just died in London.

GREAT BRITAIN. A catastrophe almost unparalleled in hor~ ror, disclosing the gro=s cruelties of the Ma- cao emigrant trade by one most terrible de monstration, is recorded in a Parliamentary report. A vessel called the Don Juan, sail- ing under the flag of the Portuguese Gov- ernment, set sail with 650 coolies on board. These poor wretchss were kidnapped in the most shameful manner. Once on board, this large multitude was placed literally in prisonâ€"penned on the main deck and fast. ened down by three iron gratings which closed the hatches, ten coolies at a time only being allowed on deck. On the second day of the voyage the captain selected twenty coolies and put them in irons, with much brutality. as an examble to the others. On the third day a difficulty arose about the food. The interpreter got angry and struck those who complained With his cane, where- upon the wretched coolies made a rush at their European jailers. The iron hatches were at once slammed back, and, wh the poor creatures beat upon the planks or air, mnskcts were fired into the crowd. It then appears that, in desperation, some few of the coolics set fire to the store-room, hoping to force the crew to throw their plison open.The sailors tried to pump waterupon the confla- gration, but the frenzied men passed the hose out of the port-holes, so that pumping beâ€" came useless. Then the fire spread beyond all control, and volumes of thick smoke rolled into the main deckâ€"choking the mass of coolics at either end, who had taken no part in the previous proceedings. Red tongues of flame and suffocating clouds filJCd the ship «while the miserable prisoners beat at the iron grating, tore at the fastenings of the deck, and even endeavored to get up to the air through the ventilators. The port- holes, however, were fastened, the dead- lights were too small to allow of a man’s body passing.and the ventilators were barred. Through all these years he not only dis- 0118\ng the important trusts committed to his hands with fidelity, but enjoyed the con- fidence and warm friendship of those with whom he has been associated. His services and their importance to the early settler of this country cannot be over-estimated. His is one of those noble spirits that takes the post of danger and privation that others may enjoy safety and plenty. He now lives in Big Thompson, Larima county, Colorado Territory. N 0 old pioneer passess that way without stopping with Mariano, and all who come, whether old or young, meet a hearty welcome. In two hours’ time the fire was “ estab- i lished on the main-deck"â€"â€"which means that ‘ scores of the Chinese had already been roasted or smotheredâ€"yet the crew never l tooka step towards saving the lives of the} imprisoned wre.ches. They merely lowered ‘ three boats and pushed off from the burning vesse‘, leaving all that mass of human crca- } tures pent up in a floating hell of fire and I agony. The sea was calm; the hatches‘ might have been opened at the last mo- ment; yet the Don Juan’s captain and hands shoved off, while the ship blazed, and while the coolies perished inside with frightful screan s. The scoundrel master and crew saved their villainous lives; a junk picked them up ; and the same witness who tells us this says, that when the twenty Chinese in irons, who were upon the fore- castle, broke away their fetters and swam towards the junk, they were pushed off into the sea to drown. hll/Ieantime, in their awful tenor, the survivors of the six hundred and ‘ filly-five below found some means of bursting the fore-batch. Scores were by this time killed by the flames or the smoke ; scores had been trampled down in the frenzied rush for life. About a hundred in all at last emerged from that Golgotha of anguish, and leaped at once into the sea. A few managed to get hold of spars and floating gear, and hung upon these till some fishing boats picked them up next morning. The major- ity were already mortally injured when tl ey escaped, or were drowned, or crushed by the falling chains and spars of the ship. But at least five hundred were first scotched to d"ath, or choked and trampled dead, before the infernal prison-ga‘e was forced by the breaking open of the hatches, which the captain and crew had so shamefully left fast. Among the places he visited before the white man had planted himself west of the Missouri river, and when danger hung on every mountain and lurked in every valley, were the head of the Missouri and Columbia rivers, California, Fort Louis (now Sonora) and Texas. In 1833 be for the first time visited St. Louis and other towns on the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. He speaks thitteen different languages, has received eleven gun-shot and arrow wounds, and now carries several leaden bullets in his body. Nature gave him a constitution capable of vast endurance, combining untiring, energy and unswerving courage with that quick, nervous temperament so indispensable to the fearless scout.

While living at the head of the Columbia river, in 1846, his tort, or camp, being attack. ed by the Blackieet, he killed two of them. For this he had to pay the natives $1,500.

Michigan Indian was promptly dispatched to the happy hunting ground by a. can of nitro-glycerine which he attempted to open with his little hatchet. He acted as guide and interpreter to vari- ous United States officials in their exploring expeditions of foil and peril for eleven years. Among the men with and for whom he acted may be mentioned Captain Marcy, the Banks, St. Vrains, Kit Carson, Sublet Maxwell, Fre- mont, Captain Walker, Captain Grundy and Roubadeaux. Capf'iin Marcy makes honora- ble mention of him in his “ Army life on the Border,” as the man who saved himself and men from s arvation by piloting them from Fort Bridger..

Mariano bring early left to himself commenced his travels over the mountains 31nd along the streams of that tract of country which now composes North- em New Mexico, Colomdo, etc., about thirty years ago. From that time to this his life has been one of ceaseless activity, hazard and privation. His Indian fights and skirmishes far outnumber his years, and his hairbreadth escapes seem almost miraculous. A Scout of Western Plains. [Correspondence of Cleveland Plain Dea!er.] Horrible . Private letters from London lately received here say that the British Government will withdraw from the Geneva tribunal rather than go before with our claims for consc. quential damages pending. No such threat has however reached our Government. The question is now where it was several months ago, when the friendly note objecting to our presentation of that class of claims was re- ceived by Government. The original posi. tions of the two countries not having been in the least degree changed by the cones- pondence. The reply of Secretary Fish to the last communication received from London, will not reach its destina- tion for eight or ten days, and as the two Governments, where there is no need for haste, do not conduct their diplomacy by means of telegrams, as important errors may occur in their transmission, it for no other reason, it cannot now be said that the treaty has failrd. While the Executive Depart- ment of the Government is committed against withdrawing the claims lor consc~ quential damages, and in cfiect deny that England should by implication dictate to us a modification of the American statement of the case, it does not follow that the negotia- tion is ended. In this condition of misun- derstanding between the nations, and while this Government does not expect any mcn- eyed consideration for consequential damages, but desires all claims of whatever character to be disposed of forever by the tribunal of arbitrators, it would continue the corres- pondcnce in the hope of removing the difii- culty, so that if the treaty should fail the responsibility shall rest with Great Britain, and not with us.
