Execution of Chomp Ferguson- Last Hours. At half pad ten o’clock, on yesterday corning, wo took our place auionp tho pcitators—probably about two hundred -that bad assembled to witness tho exeou- ionuf CImmp Ferguson. Tho day was ovely in the extreme, and the warm rays if the autumn sun mocked with their icerfulm*- the gloomy preparations go- s*on before u-. At n quarter past eleven ,•clock the arrangements wore completed, he death cord hung ominously above the cutl.ild, ami an opening ol the guards and i nerreua movement in the crowd told hat the prisoner was approaching. Hews.- dre-sed in a suit of plain black, lb nmis were bound tightly behind him, >ul his cairiage was erect, linn and elastic, lad lie been tho experienced orator, nouoting tho rostrum to address a great riendly assemblage, his manner, as he ucended that ladder to eternity, could not uve been more thoughtfully proud, cool, iriinprodve. Ills hair was neatly cut, nd his fiico shaved, but darkened with he indications of a heavy heard, lie ookedthe picture of perfect health, and til well developed form gave evidence of ,man of immense muscular strength and ibysienl endurance. There was a proud depression of the lip, and a high scorn f the eye, which, while fully alive to the retd toleinniiy of the occasion, showed «wm determined in death not to holic is character while living. 11 is whole ppuranco was suggestive of one "On whoso oacli Blanco of thought hwiliun followed. ni ttio thunderbolt Pursues the Hash.” Thecotlin, draped in white, was placed ifronl ot the scaffold. The prisoner took is staii< 1 under tno fatal beam, and the birRoand specifications were then read, it clear voice, by Colonel Shaftor. Fer n-on $ manner during the reading was lit of haughty inditlerenco. Several rues ho bowed to a chance acquaintance, hose upturned face ho recognized in the rowd. At some of the specifications ho dded assent, at others he shook n scorn- Ll denial. As tho sixteenth specification I&9 being read, ho somewhat hurriedly jMnirkeu, “I could tell it bettftr than Colonel Shaftur replied, “l should ot wonder." The number of spociliea- ons was twenty-threo, of most of which • vistdjuifcd guilty. Th«.prisoner was then asked if he had nything to say. llis words were very ®w, ana scarcely audible. In substance «sai<l; "I have Bathing to say. There ■ good deal I could say, but I will not. do not want to bo rut to pieces when 1 Wuead.

A Fort Laramie (I)akotuh Territory) correspondent of the Chicago Times de scribes in detail a series of attacks made by tho Indians, near Yellowstone river, upon a number of troops under Colonel Coles, consisting of his own regiment, mounted us riflemen, with one section of artillery, and a battalion of the 12th Mis souri cavalry. Tho latter seem to have fallen back several miles, tho Indians be ing in largo force, and apparently deter mined to dostroy the command. Tho writer says: On the evening of September Ed he was again attacked by the Indians in great force, but repulsed and pursued them ten miles, when he camped on the west bank of Powder liver, where the engagement was resumed ut daybreak the next morn ing, tho Indians commencing tho attack on tho west side of the camp, hut in every quarter they were defeated with heavy loss until eight o’clock in the foronoon, when they attempted a grand coup </•■ main bv crossing a party of loOO or 2UU0 to tho other side of the liver, where they made a furious attack on the* river side of tho camp. One company had nl-end.v been thrown across, though it Put buck to tho west bank, which whs held by four companies of the 2d Missouri light artil lery, armed with fc>penc«*r's repeating carbines and Colt's army revolvers, and advantageously posted in n clump of tim ber that came up to the wait r’s edge. One piece ol Artillery wm* hUo brought to hear on tho crossing. The Indians came dash ing down from tho Dull' in a confused mass, yelling like a sot of fiends lot loose from tho infernal regions, and as the ad vance entered the river, which was less than fifty yards wide, our boys opened on them. ‘ The slaughter was uwlul, but re treat was impossible, hs those in the rear wore continually rushing up, pressing tho advance directly under tho lire, until the river was literally (lammed with the dead bodies of the slain. This disunions re pulse completely demoralized the Indians, who fled in every di ection. Their lo-s in this buttle is estimated as high as six hun dred, while we lost only one man killed, and Lieut, Kelly and two men wounded. The advance column of Colonel Sam’l Walker was attacked a few days later by three thousund Indians, but the savages were put fo flight. Tho troops reached tho fort after a heavy march, exhausted and destitute of provisions, besides losing four hundroi horses in a bitter storm of rain and snow. Wonderful Natural Objects. The opening up of llie great country ly ing west of us lias already hi ought to light some gigantic works of nature, in com parison with which Niagara, tho Natural Bridge and the Mumoth Cave dwindle into curiosity objects of third-rate importance. A closer familiarity with the mountain, valley and plain region stretching towards the Pacific will develop, in likelihood,still grander display*. The latest diseovoiy is that of a lake in the Cascade mountains, about eighty-flvo miles northern^ of Jack sonville Oregon. Front the description wo should suppose this eli-'-l of water oc cupies the mouth of an extinct volcano. It is twelvo miles in length by ten in breadth, and forms, to all appearance, a regular circle. In this mountain region has also been discovered a water-fall of the grandest proportions. All others, so far known, are but gentle cascades compared with it. Ll the accounts are to bo credited—and they come from several sources, all bearing marks of intelligence, and the corrobora tive evidences of consistency and similari ty in description, measurements mh! de tails—this natural wonder is without Hum an Fititor Died, A San Francisco correspondent fur nishes this account of u remarkable case ol coolness and courage. Tho gentleman alluded to was James Nisbot, of the .*8?in Francisco Bulletin, who was lost on the steamship Brother Jonathan,and his body whs found floating in the ocean sewn miles from land. When it w<«« taken aeboro and examined there was found in the deceased’s vest pocket a will, which was written after the ship struck the fatal rock. Contemplating calmly the teirihle scenes about him, and calculating his chances for life, he had the cool courage to make such a disposition of his property as would be most beneficial to those who would bo left behind him. The old man writing a will amid the howling of the tempest that was lashing the ocean into foaming billows, and surrounded by drowning men, women and children wail ing out their agony to the pitilos winds and the raging sen, presents a heroic, pic ture. Here is a copy of the will, ami let the reader observe with what care it is written : At Ska—On Boaud tuk Biiotiiki;*) Jonathan, July 20, 18G3, ) In view of death, I hereby appoint my brother, Tims, Nisbot, at piesont engaged on the Faeille railroad, near Clipper Gap, California, my solo executor, with in structions to wind up my whole estate, real and personal, and convert the sumo into cash, with all convenient speed, but so if* not to sacrifice the same, and to pay oyer and divide tho same eq tally between himself and my solo sister, Margaret Nis- bet, now residing in England; and under herd hi of the payment of a legacy of $5900 in gold to Almira Hopkins, wife ot Casper T. llopkius, insurance agent, San Franclsco, Cal. And I desire that my brother, said Thomas Nisbi t, shall not be asked to give security for bis intromission with my estate. Jas. Nisiikt. Tho document was written with a pen cil,tho writer coolly recollecting that pen cil marks are less affected l>y water than ink marks. It was clearly written in Mr. Nisbot’s hold and steady p«-nmunship. When ho had concluded the will ho found that ho lmd yet a littlo time left before the ship would probably go down, and he added this brief note to a family in this city, whore lie lmd boarded for many years : My 1)kar Ma—A thousand affection ate adieus. You spoke of my sailing on Fridaj*—hangman’s day—and the un lucky Jonathan. Well, here I am with (loath before me. My love to you all—-to Casper, to Belle, Mellioaiul littlo Myra— kiss her for me. Never forget Grandpa. The children familiarly addressed the old man ms grandpa, ullhough ho was in no way related to thorn. Two Biiiuakd • koijs Gnu.—A coiro«p« i-A CoURA- ident writing from Castollntnaro (Naples) must not omit telling you that a cour ageous young girl him just rid the country of ii infamous brigand chief named M m, sin, for whose capture, alive or do id, a largo reward had been offered. A few evenings sinoo Mousia went to a lone bo ^ » near Montforte, in tho district of A vtdliuo, occupied by a farmer and his family.

Canine Sagacity.—A gentleman, ono of the survivor* of the ill-fated steamer Anglo-Saxon, gives tho following narra tive of tho escape of one of tho boats through the pilotage of two Newfound land dogs: The last time I saw Capt.

We were knocked about in ii log all day, not know ing whither we wore drifting. Towards eve, however, wo espied a cliff oil' Bello Isle, when wo steered for Gape Race, which we made. Aproaching tho shore, we saw a man carrying a gun, accompanied by two largo Newfoundland dogs. Ho evi dently saw us, and made u “ignal for us to approach the shore cautiously. Wo fol lowed his course for sometime, till ho was hid from us by a largo cliff, which it was impossible he could descend. Tho two dogs, howover, soun appeared, descending this dangerous head-land, und, upon I have ju.-t seen the original of a leftei addressed, on the 10th nil, i*» a wealthv farmer named Donantonio, who had HHK) sheep destroyed last year b'vauso he re fused to send a sum of money demanded by tho brigand named (jianeolii, the wri ter of tho letter ubovn mentioned, which is to the following oiled: — Don 14 manto- nio—1 wish to know whether you will send mo this year 2.500 ducat* (1,000 francs) four suiG of cloth*, with cloak-, hats and boots, also ten .-bil ls, ten pair of drawers, twenty handkerchief-*, and two gold watches with chains, and Liiut imme diately and without evasion.
