Zion.— Joseph Entrekin. Waco.—J. M. Adamson. Roopville.—J. M. Alexander. Whitesburg.— Jno. W. Taylor. Gen Custis Lee has resigned the presidency of Washington and Lee University, Va. ——— He that would wear the. palm must bear the dust of the race. Nature has decreed it. “There is no excellence without labor,” no development, moral, intellectual or physical, without exercise. Nature has in all the grand economy of her arrangements made no pro vision for idlers. She does not take the student by the hand and lift hina to eminence and renown. She does not of grace crown the merchant with wealth, nor place the chaplet on the hero’s brow.— Hercules, when applied to for help by the wagoner whose wheels had stuck fast in the mud, withheld the desired aid until the wagoner had put his own shoulder to the wheel. Every man has within himself evi dence that all his powers, physical as well as mental, were designed for active, energetic use. That such was the original design and not a mere consequence of the trans gression of Adam —though doubt less that event imposed additional labors—is attested by the language of scripture. “And the Loid God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.” We look about us and perceive that the same laws which made it necessary to restrain the profusion of Nature in Eden, are in force to-day. These laws are fixed and immutable. In garden and lawn, in field andjorest there are countless illustrations of this truth. The gracious showers the glad sunshine, that favor the development of corn and other food plants, promote also the growth of grass and weed. If these be permitted to take up the elements of food from the soil, our corn will pale and wilt and die. Moth er Earth is partial to plants that spring spontanously from her bos om, yielding her nourishment to them rather than to those planted by the hand of man. Man, if he would live, must plant and trim and dress and cultivate. The fiat of Je hovah: “In the sweat of thy face, ehalt thou eat bread till thou re turn into the ground” is written in letters of iron on the face of nature. Labor is a law of man's nature. — Vigorous effort is a law of his na ture, and if he fails to keep it he must undergo the penalties which Nature will inevitably inflict on ev ery refractory subject. *«• ► •> The Path of Wisdom. It leads along through pleasant valleys, by coolirg springs and babbling brooks upon whose banks are flowers of every hue. The entrance to this path is barred by loftty and rugged hills. But as the traveler labors up the steep ascent, with sweat and toil, he catches occasional glimpses of the scene beyond, and, - while he grows stronger, the way seems to grow smoother, until at last a pros pect of indescribable beauty bursts upon his vision. The miHts that hitherto obscured hi view are dis sipated now by rays effulgent radi ating from the center of all mind and of all power. The muses meet him here and lead him for ward, and though he walk not on flowers, —for every path that hu man feet may tread is beset with thorns, —yet Fortitude, his constant companion, helping to endure his trials, his heart is usually per vaded with a serene gladness. If Grief and Sorrow meet him in the way, Religion and Philosply, hcav enly sisters, are there to solace and comfort him. With such compan ionship he can not fail, however humble his origin, to be looked upon with respect by the good and pious of his fellow men. And, though Poverty may cling to his ekirts, or even mount upon his Bhoulders and strive to crush him, yet Happiness shrinks not from his —panionship; f or is born the conscious rectitude of an under standing heart. Peace, too, is there; for she delights in those who walk with nature. And Joy is there; for, with soul expanded by the exercise of its powers, enlight ened by contemplation of the works of Nature, he beholds in everv thing the works of wonderful de sign. He knows that all the glo rious creations that exist below, around and above us, with their indescribable beauties, their awful grandeur and the sublime harmony of their operations, can not by any possibility have been the result of chance, and that any other hy pothesis than that of the existence of a supreme and omnipotent God is utterly incomprehensible and unsatisfactory. He feels a deep and settled consciousness of his own immortality, and, with heart of gratitude to Him who created man in his own image, grasps the idea of eternal bliss and in the an ticipation tastes the ’joys of that Heavenly rest where the soul’s development shall end in full ma tuiity. CHEYENNE ATROCITIES. Agent Dyer’s Explanation of the Outbreak. Washington, June 24.—The out break of Cheyenne Indians which was threatened Saturday last has been brewing for a year or longer. Army officials here attribute it to dissatisfaction on the part of the Indians at the leasing of their res ervation to cattlemen. An in*- stance is cited of of a Cheyenne chief being made drunk, and while in this condition his signature to an agreement to lease certain lands was obtained. LEASES NOT THE REAL CAUSE. Reports on file at the office of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs indicate that the leasing of the lands was not the oiiginal cause of the trouble among the Indians. These reports are from agent Dyer on the Cheyenne reservation, who ranks as one of the best agents in the Indian seavice. DYER LAUGHED AT. Dyer, on assuming the duties of the agency, endeavored to control the Indians He reported to the Commissioner of ’ Indian Affairs that they laughed at his attempts and boasted that the government could do noting with them. In August of last year a man named Horton attempted to pass through the reservation with 400 ponies. Au Indian sub-chief saw him and shot into the herd, killing two or moie of the animals. He then attempted to shoot the owners of the ponies, when Horton drew his pistol and shot the Indian. Friends of the latter demanded vengeance, and threatened to take the life of Horton. took 200 PONIES. Afterwards they asked for the 400 ponies and finally compromised by taking half of the number. Dyer reports that a company of soldiers came to the reservation at the time of the dispute over killing of the Indian, but were apparently afraid to show their authority. Since this incident, the agent says, the Indians have grown more trouble some and more insolent. The lives of white men have been threatened, and only a few -weeks ago an attempt was made to kill Rev. S. S. Haury, a missionary among the Indians, “just because they wanted to kill somebody.” dyer's plea for cavalryman. Agent Dyer was in Washington some weeks ago, and he urged that 3,000 cavalrymen be sent to the reservation as soon as possible to “scare the Indians,” and show them that the government had a sufficient force to punish them if necessary. He thought that if this method of influencing them was adopted they could be con trolled without bloodshed on either side. lie said that the Cheyennes were as warlike as the Apaches, that they were well armed and could put from 1,000 to 1,500 war riors on the warpath at any time. THE UTE TROUBLE ENDED. A dispatch was received at rhe War Department to-day from Col. Bradley, at Fort Lewis, stating that the trouble between the Ute Indians and cowboys is that locali ty has ended. FIGHTING IN (MEXICO Guaymas, Mex., June 24. — Two engagements with Gaqui Indi ans took place on June 20 and 22. Two hundred Gaquis and six Mex icans were killed. A grand attack was to be made by all the Mexican forces under command of Gen. Caraona. Three Americans are reported killed near Saimariza by Apaches, who were part of Geron imo’s band. No names are given. “Right Peart.” “I was right peart till the rheu matiz sot in,” said a suffering old man who lives near the swamp. Fact is, wherever you live you can’t be ’’right peart”’ if you are a victim of this troublesome disease. Captain C. W. Hotsenpiller, Sring field, 0., says, “I found great relief from inflammatory rheumatism by using Brown.s Iron Bitters.” Thous ands of other people have found similar* relief. The Ruins of San Xavier. For the Carroll County Times. The stage had just been an nounced to leave in twenty minutes for the noted, interesting aid his toric place, known as the old San Xavier mission. The place is o cated only ten miles from the old capital of the territory of Arizona —Tucson. We boarded the stage for the place of interest and edifi cation. The section of countiy around Tucson will be found to be a desert, wild,’ weird, dry, arid and sandy region. There are a few mesquite brush that now and then aiiempt a break in the tire some monotony. The cactus plant and the piercing thistles, names yet unknown, bleed the traveler as he staggers on his weary way. After an hour’s drive we arrived at the place. The gloomy aspect pre sented can never be forgotten by the observer. The long, thick walls around the premises, and the solemn appearing ascending dome that has been standing for ages holds the’seeker of the interesting in history either sacred or profane. In times of ancient wars, these walls were barriers against the in vaders. The melancholy and down trodden tribes of the “Pap pagoes,” mechanically march daily to this church of worship and do penance for their sins and short comings, For several miles around this sacred spot they live on their little ranches and raise corn, a few sheep, red pepper (chili) and pump kins. Their manufacture of earth en vessels of all kinds for domestic uses employs much of their time. The “olla” an earthen pot for wa ter is used much by the Americans in Arizona during the summer months. Beside tlfese we have a few Mexicans of low breed, no better than the fast fading tribe of the degraded “Pappagoes.” Their general appearance it that of a la zy worthies “gingerbread” colored darkey. The hair is black and straight. When the chimes peal forth the commands of that Cath olic creed to a priest-ridden people, they heed at once, and without question or cavil. At six o’clock a. in. they enter this large, tiresome looking pile of “adobes” and confess their many sms with tearful eyes on bended knees; but, bless your soul, they keep on steal, ing and lying. The holy place of sacrifice and worship is turned into a place of mockery and shame The piiest gathers in daily the “dinero,” and sums the income from the financial investment in huge walls and most wonderful gall. He keeps his flock in igno rance, and teaches them to hate the Americans. He rolls in the fat of the land, drinks his choice wines and the family circle of his relig ious followers is not safe from Lis lecherous invasions. These are statements hard possibly for some to believe; but true nevertheless. — A condition exists in .and around the mission that would not be tol erated for an instant anywhere else. The church building is one of the oldest in the United States, It is a very large structure and a costly one. The walls are over five feet thick, made of adobes throughout with a tile roof, The inside of the church v\e see the ex penditure of silver and gold, to our eye, wreckless. The apostles, and all biblical characters of importance ?re | laced in solid silver, in t ! e niches in the walh. Our Saviour, Christ,and his sainted mother,Mary are in a most prominent place over the pulpit. iMI of the e arc veiled and kept so, only on special occa sions. We arc snrpiiscdat finding not a seat of any kind in the church. Tins is the case in all Cath olic churches in New Mexico, Ari zona ami Ohl Mexico. The floor is made of plaster and has a hin d finish. The worshippers come in promptly and are seated on the floor, which position is maintained through the service except during kneeling for prayer. The reverence and faith these ignorant Indians and half breed Mexicans have in this the religion of their choice, Dilts to shame the progressive in telligence of revised editions, and excusing versions. Their manners customs, and modes of worship are crude, ignorant and hideous to this age of improvement and new in vention. While they may be igno rant and low bred, while their priests may keep them so and abuse this advantage in every regard, we have yet to see in any of them im- politeness, vulgarity or disrespect for their priest or for themselves. — We never saw‘any of rhe y' ung men talking, whispering and gig gling during the s rvices We nev er saw them chewing tobacco and spitting all over the flo »r, for the ladies to drag their dresses through. We never saw them like curs,hang ing around the front steps to wait and see the girls come out and break their necks trying to get a glimpse of a foot or ankle. In fine we have not seen anywhere a class of people more polite to their friends, more respect ful to their seniors, that have more respect for themselves, Ilian these people at church, going to and coming from church. A lesson can be learned from them, if we have the inch ation to improve ft and the capacity to retain and practice it. For generations and generations, these people of the Aztec period have here so existed. We dare not judge their religion and the convictions of their con sciences, for their beliefs appear to be as well grounded into them with faith as anv Protestant reli-> gion among the more intelligent people of the earth. It can not be said that they will be lost, we do not believe it, for they have their bibles and doctrines of religion in which they believe, which they sus tain and practice. Faith in, and good works i? that faith to war. I a Supreme Being appear to be the ground work of all religions. And we believe in nine cases out of ten the poor “Pappago” in his ignor ance and unflinching belief in bis religion, will have a better life hereafter than the rich pew hold ers of Bcedier—Talmage admirers. So when the final trump is sounded and all the nations are paraded for the grand inspection, these poor, ignorant beings will be there under their un derstandings and beliefs of their Creator and his desires, and we shall not criticise nor say one word in malice.
