A letter from Abnapee, Wisconsin, contains the following graphio piotnre of the deeolation nought by the hurricane of lire that visited that plsee: Hnmsn annals do not surpass, in eqnal time acd .pace, the immensity and intensity of suf fering and death orowded into tbo meager ept- touo of one single honr. The eeene of a Ibrivmg indnstry, and the home of nearly a hnndred people, the place, though isolated from any toman vicinity, had maintained a flooriah- ir.g nnd tranquil vitality. The shingle mill, nib its coadjotant industries, gave employment to tbo entire people, women and children divid mg the easy labor of shingling arid binding. There wero bat four buildings on the clearing —ihe mill, the general boarding house, a store am l the bam. Economy and convenience, enriona to say. had dietated the (election of this remote spot The timber inexhaustibly covered the place, and it vi) of nneqnalled quality; a Uiy little stream, meandering through the gnarled roots and ipfl soil offered a supply of nter, enough wllh artesian wells to drive Ihe n iU machinery. M was cheaper to work the great logs into marketable shape here, where Ib'iv were right at hand, than establish the nulls on the Iske or bey and drag the Immense timber over miles of wretched roads. The fierv experience of tho west shore—of the whole Northern Wisconsin—had been the ripericnce of this wood immersed hamlet. Fur wicks, inerssiUt, laborious battle bad been waged night and day, reliefs of men, and even women, taking turns in the i-xhansling contest It was bopedthat all danger had been warded off, when a wide belt, folly a mils deep, had h,en homed outward from tho clearing. The mmnily of assured safely bad come npoa the nniple when this bisok eircumvallation was com- plan—lbe very night before the calamity. On that fatal Sunday morning the mill operations Mi«prnd<d, and the men who had homes in the n.igblstrlsg towns of Big and Lillie Sturgeon ma da as early start through tho woods. When night oipie some kindly providence detained them, and the muaaere was so moch less. The ntgbt lame on tranquilly, the humid air gave grairfal promise of oonttng rain, and tbe Iasi lingering distrust waa banished from the timid- rst lihabitant. Early.in tbe night moat of the liltlc population in tho hamlet ware in doors or in bat. It was still early when those casual!: aslir outside aaw a great glowing light shoot it cart tho southern sky, and spreading rapidly wf*t and northward, continue with dazzling brilliancy. Presently a slender column of fire ikol forward, and, eangbt by a whirlwind, came (Jiving through the solid limber toward the mill. By this time the solid sleepers and all bad rnsbed from Ihe barrack in n wild, clamor ita consternation. Three brothers, Williamson, owned tbe mill, and had in the colony mother, father, sisters, wives end children. Hastily charging the wo- men to oare for themselves, the brothers set about saving the property, if possible. But be fore tbo hose could bo brought to bear, the sav ing of life alone became the stako in the dread- fat encounter. The proprietors, seem for a ume to have been fall of calm, brave discretion, and, with the foil realization of tbeauddendan ger in tbe first rnah of tbe tornado, attempted ijatematio plans of preservation. The women were directed, as far as possible, to pnt on men's clothes throughout, as offering leas chance for the fire to catch. So far as known, not a wo man heeded the advice. Had they done so, their lives might not have been sacrificed on Ihat ignoble pyre. Even if life had not been spared, the most revolting sights of tbe maess- ere would have been spared for heart-broken snrvivors. This waa the last shred of coherent conduct among the frightened people. Swift whirling oolnmna of flame bad ont through the intervening timber, and fell voraciously on the light frame buildings. Tbe whirlwind lashing the trees into fragments caught the fire in roar ing surges, and flung it abont in billowy waves among the tree-tops. Blender tongues of fire falling from above played in malevolent cur rents across the clearing. A desperation of terror filled men, women and children—a terror as natural as fatal, for, had common fortitude led the group, not a sonl need have perished. With one impulse tbe (rantio mass, battling and crowding, rushed to the potato patch. Hera a rising ground was crowned by a shallow pit, not six feet around, and hardly, at the deepest part, two feet below the surface of the ground. Men now living, who came along nnaoathed through that night of doom, tell how, before the evil time, when the fires were raging, this spot had been fixed on as a place of safety, because almost in the centre of the clearing, with no inflammatory matter near, it seemed to promise a breathing in case of a general conflagration. There bad bean constant jooosities and banter abont this “center of salvation," and some one actnally attempting to enlarge the cavity, bad been driven off by good-natured ridicule, - Even as lale as Batnrdsy it hid been used as a place of refnge, notwithstanding, and, when the aetual danger came, the credulous mass remembered the delnaive pit. If that fatal spot had not been, if the whimsical belief had not obtained a firm hold, there is not the slightest doubt but the forty-seven that perished wonld have escaped in the neighboring woods. Into that cramped place, crowding, buffeting, begging, cur.mg, imploring, praying, shrieking, men, children and women elbowed and fought in the frenzy of a hideous desperation and terror. Not large enough to admit a dozen by the oloaest packing, nearly fifty wrestled and crowded in and about tbe fatal spot. With ostrich instinct, in the abj corneas of their unreasoning fear, men plowed their burning heads nnder the living pyre. An inextricable pyramid of bodies, in all sorts of oonoeivablo postures, stood in the flame-swept place. Thera were a few in this awful time that pre served an amazing equanimity. The engineer of the mill, Byron Merrill, a young fellow of marked intelligence, battled resolutely till the last chance to save his employers' property, and only when the futility of the effort and the dan ger to life became obvions waa his self imposed daty resigned. A bit of romance tinges tbe glaring pictnra. His awee! heart was the relative of the mill owners, Mias Maggie William*on, a girl, it is said, of rare beauty and attraction. The young fellow, bright and cultured beyond hie kind, regarded with favor and affection for many a mile around, had won her heart and the two were to have been married. The girl, with her kindred, had fled to tbs potato patch, and hen, suffocating with a moke, their garments in flames, and writhing in awful agony, the young fellow found the chief part of the people. He tried to scatter the infatuated group: with his hat pressed closely over his month and nostrils, he directed the group to break and take shelter In the edge of the Umber. Hopeless.' The roar of tho hurricane, oven the blood curdling shrieks of the sufferers drowned his voioe. He tried by main tone to tear the hid- eons mass asunder, bat the strength of the giant 00old not have broken the maddened clutch of the wretched sufferers. The grasp enu immov ably fixed to the fatal spot, and rose from bunt ing sand, a fiery Laocoon straggling with the ooiling flames. Merrill, hastily fetahing wetted blankets, threw them over the nearest sufferers, meantime shooting to them to break for the timber, not twenty steps away. Useless. With the skin hanging in shreds upon his hands and forehead, he carried water and pound it on the infatuated group, while the ignoble crowding went on madlv among the swiftly roasting crowd. The tumultuous struggle had been from the first * loathsome, unreasoning fear; a moment’s coolness, a moment’s cessation of the frightful effort to wedge downward wonld have given life to all. The time came, however, when the faith ful Merrill, stripped almost of clothing, and horned beyond recognition, had to give op the heroic effort, and, plunging through the darting flame, dashed his burning body in the well Early in the catastrophe a half dozen heavy alee peri had found tardiness their solvation from the potatoe-pstob, and they darted into the timber belt, which had been burned ont *®og before to keep the fire from the houses. Here, prone to the ground, they protected themselves, while the mad crowd, not ten yards away, roasted in their blindness. The foiling trees could be guarded against, but nothing could save from the encompassing fire in the clearings. One came, too, whose frail chance of life the meanest creature struggling in that hot pit would not havorefnsed, an old tottering, h*H blind, trembling woman, mother to the owners of the mill. She must have been for gotten in the first rash, for when she came to the pots to-patch it was filled with a crowd thrown prone upon their faoes in the shallow depths of the potato pit. Seven of her kindred writhed in that hideous knot. Passing on with decrepit steps, the venerable mother, whose eighty-four yean had not worn ont coolness and discretion, came upon a great boulder near the edge of the timber. Climbing on this, sltbough half suffocated, she covered her heal with tier skirts, and, with clothes carefully tacked up from the running flames, kept for hours on the book of tins unique salamander. Tbe only son that came ont of the fire with bis life, it ia said, did not forget his doty, and aided his mother to this forlorn refuge. Be that aa it may, a thick blanket well wetted over her body and ber skirts out of reach of the hot inoendtary sand, the old lady perched on that rock through the long night of agony, every shriek of the roasted kindred splitting ber ears, and their banting bodies almost in reach of her helping arms. Twioe through tbs night she received sncoor, onoe from ber eon, whs came up and wetted her covering, and onee from the barnmsster, Bnsh, who also bathed her head and gave her cool water to drink. Through the whole un speakable tragedy of piteous cowardice ran this vein of simple fortitude and heroic endaranoe. Tbe mill blacksmith, Michael Adams, stands ont as though of almost antique mold. He was a man of gigantic fignra and grave, rough re- serve. When the danger came, he gathered bis three children and baby in his great strong arms, and with his wife strode to the oentra of the clearing, where he calmly pltoed them on wetted blankets, and, covering them with his coat, qoielly brought water in bncketa and Bat- orated tbe frail protection. The flames hissed and roared abont him, bnt be never desisted. Bsatstlng their hot torrents with wonderful en- dnranoe, and even when his hair was ablaze, his hands fleshless, and the ooals eating into his Arab, he continued his efforts for wife and child. Tbe yonng engineer and tbe barn master abonted to him to fly to the woods. He seemed to hear them, but calmly shaking his head remained st Ijjff post. As his strength and sight began to fail, be looked with unutterable yearning toward the helpless gronp at his feet, then glanced anxious ly toward tbe wood, Whether he aaw that there was the better chsnoe of safety can never be known; ho reeled suddenly and dropped like shot in his tracks. When help eame to that gronp the next day, sn nnscarred babe lay in the arms of its dead mother, the father's arm abont both. They were, of oourae, all dead, bnt the father alone, with one arm burnt off. waa unrecognizable, save by his giant frame. Even the dog that howled, smothering in the hot air and kept in an ecstacy of reckless motion to trveent being roasted on the hot sands, seemed mpressed by his man’s do votion. Wagging de lirious inquiry with his tail, and interjecting sharp barks, be seemed to plead with his obdu rate master. Hopeless of recognition, then he wonld plaee his nose nnder the wet blankets, sDd after a tborongh cooling, emerge dejectedly, as thoogh depreeating tbe weakness while his master stood exposed. Sands growing hotter and hotter, the forbearing brate made for the woods, but in mid-career, and almost in the performance of a jig—his legs were kept moving so briskly to keep his feet from banting—he tnrned longingly, as if reminding the man that this was the way to safety. No heed was paid him, and with painfnl limps and plteons whines he returned, and retting his feet on the blanket, stared eagerly at bia master. His poor singed body was found in that attitude of love and daty. At the well, which stood nearest the house, a wretched gronp had taken refnge—not only at,- bnt in it. Six people flung themselves into this lost resort, oonniing confidently on it as a plaee of security. Finally, when crippled by the fire, and exhausted by his long efforts, tbe young man Merrill threw himself into that crowded pit also, the place was packed. Even here his presence of mind was all that saved a life when life had very little ehanoe. The frail wooden curbing above tfle month had taken Are, and tbe flames began to ran downward fiercely. The paralyzed gronp dared not put ont tbeir heads, lest the flames should smother them. Bat Merrill, without an instant’s hesitation up rose and Hang the dangerous thing away, and the barn master, hovering about the edge of the woods, presently refreshed the smothered people by a bucket of water. The well was, notwith standing, a place of death. The flames, sweep ing savagely over the clearing, lurched and spit down hatefully into the orowded pit, and soon the steady blaze from witbin indicated the fate of its inmates. Merrill still held bis mind, and re- sisted the flames. In this he was aided by Bnsh, who helped him to bia final deliverance. He aided all who wonld listen to him, manfully, and to him the few that were saved, iu a large measure, owe their lives. He brought water front the creek to aid the gronp on the potato patch, and kept the sheltering blankets satu rated as long as be dared venture inside the line of fire. It must not be supposed that outside the clearing stretched a solitude of safety. On the contrary, the ceaseless explosions of break ing tranks and splintered branches were so ter rific, mingled with volnmes of flsme in the tree tops, that the great part of the people preferred to risk the dangers of the open ground. Bat tbe thick wood btd its security, and with care the people that lay down near the edge found themselves, when the frightful morning came, substantially uninjured. Here tbe climax comes; the tragedy is com plete in this one terrific picture; the light of the new dsy revealed only the machinery of the horrid masterpiece. The red glare of night had changed into bleak dawn, and the dawn had changed into high noon before a helpful band broke into the black Golgotha. The barnmaster Bush, when silence bed fallen upon the place for an boar or two before dawn, took a bone and attempted to make bia way to Little Stur geon. As well try to ride throngb a stonewall. Leaving hia horse behind, he straggled on by the bright l.ght of the burning pines, and after incalculable trouble in the way aDd ont of the way, some time about daylight he came upon the rains of a lumberman's ctbin, which by the regular path was not more than two miles from the mill. He had been boots in reaching it, nnd, worn ont by the labors and agony of the night, sat down to rest. Presently tbe owner came, and together the two men started back to the settlement. They eame first to the well. Merrill, apparently quite dead, was taken ont first Six more after, all dead, save a child, crowded below its mother at the bottom. Merrill soon gave feeble evidence of life, and was eared for at once. Bnsh ran to the stone to aid tne old woman; the blank- eta were rolled oway. The stone was bare, and no vestige of Mrs Williamson could be found. Then they eame upon the pit An indistin guishable heap of arms, legs and bodies, per fectly still and wholly naked, was all that re mained of the mass that came there in abund ant life a few boors before. They were all dead, and few of them reoognizable. Seven Williamsons perished in the group; among others tbe yonng girl whose long black hair found clutched in masses in her nnebarred hand. The darkness of a new night threw a pitying veil over the scene when the first relief from the ontside had snsoeeded in catting a way through. The work of bnrial began next morn ing, and fifty-nine were acoonnted for in tbe fatal clearing. The venerable mother was found on the road to Big Sturgeon the day after her terrible exposure, very feeble and worn ont. She waa tenderly eared for, and is in a fair way tore- gain what she ean count bnt little—her health. One son ont of three was spared. Her husband laid hia gray bain in the terrible holocast; her whole kindred passed away in the ravages of that deadly night. To this day the woods are not dear of their dead. Bodies in every stage of decay are constantly bronght in by the com mittees, and until that ia ended the grand total can only be a matter of conjecture. Aa Oregon Romance. Tho Oregon Bulletin tell this romantio story: Twenty-five years ago a yonng couple redding a the State of New Hampshire met, loved, one determined to marry. Like other hnman be ings, they had passions, and they parted in an ger. The voung man moved into another part of the country, where he met another woman, whom be married. A few years later he moved to the Paeifio Coast, and in time became a citi zen of Oregon. The yonng woman fitted her self for the occupation of a teacher and went to Iowa, where she engaged in teaching school. Fifteen years passed by, and then the school- marm joined a family that was emigrating from the vicinity of where she had been residing to Oregon, and in due time arrived there, and en deavored to procure employment in her profes sion, bnt met with indifferent success, and finally determined to accept employment as a domestic until she could do better. Shortly after miking this resolution she wss offered a position in tho family of a gentleman and ac cepted it, bnt the first time she saw the head of the family, reoognized in him her former lover. Tbe recognition was mutual, and of course the lady oonld not remain. Her old lover, who had grown rich, furnished her with funds, and she went to San Francisco, where she obtained a position in the School Department of that city. About eighteen months ago the wife of the gen tleman died, after having been in feeble health for some years. After awhile the widower wrote to his flame, telling her of his loss. She replied with a letter of oonsolabon, and a correspond ence sprang np between them, and finally the widower mode a proposal to the lady to bury their old differences and consummate the en gagement of their younger doys. The woman who had loved so steadily and so long signified her willingness, attda oonple of months ago our friend proceeded to San Francisco and led his first love to the alt&r. They returned to Ore gon, and are now residing on one of the most beautiful forms in the 'Willamette Valley. French Immigration, | CaxtzssvuxE, Ga., Nov. 14,187L I To Mr. D. IF. Lewis: I read in a paper from Savannah, that you hod received a letter from H. Tucker, actually in Faria (France), in which he said, that a good thing to do wonld be to make or establish an immigration society, to procure some French immigrants to this State. I am confident that such undertaking would be successful, and wonld benefit this State. I am a Frenchman, and know what the formers are, at home. They wonld work better and be more careful about everything generally, than the hands of this country. If I had the means, I would advance money, and show to the people of this State what ean be made in a farm, only by savings [and cares. ■ The French farmers knew how to raise or cul tivate wheat, rye, oats, barley, Irish potatoes, turnips in general, (beets, to make sugar of it), tobacco, lucerne, clover and prairie grass, and grapes of different kinds. They know how to make and save manure. I showed (last year) bow to make manure to Mr. Trimble, from [AdaitsvtUe. A farmer who has 25 head of cattle can make [$800 worth, or more, by working an hour or an honr and a half every day, and better fertilizer, Ifor it will last four or five years, whilst guano [lasts only one year. In Franoe we raise fifty and sixty bnsheis of wheat, and over, to the acre, mutt quantity oonld be raised here as well. The Frenchmen that come to this country ar rive generally at New Tork. They do not speak English, and there some New Torker or Dutch- man goes to meet tbe boats or steamers, and go to tbe poor foreigners and speak to them a few I words of bad French and engage them—for what ? for how mneb, and for what business ? They do not know; and a great many help them | to spend the little they may have bronght with Threomonths ago I wrote home, telling |what I knew abont this country. And since, 1 have sent letters to the Mayor, or Maire, of five | cities, asking them to advise those wishing to to Amerioa to come directly to Georgia, Ithe climate being good, tbe soil abont the same as in Franoe, and looking more like France thin any of the States in which I have traveled, viz: | Booth Carolina and Florida. I believe that if an agent was at New Fork he [could send many immigrants to Savannah; for he wonld just take them from European steam ers to Savannah steamers, saving the expense of staying in the city one or two weeks. When a Frenchman is in this country, if he hears French spoken he thinks he is saved. I have been living in Cartersville one year. Respectfully yours, 3. 3. Hr.r.AED. Jawbone or a GJnnf. | From the Helena (Montana) Gazette. November 1. j Yesterday, in company with Geo. W. Foote, w« took a ride into the foot hills among the miners, and being invited to dine with Richard and Kill Kennedy, two miners and prospectors who reside near tbe head of the Dry Gulch, we tarried for a while, and partook of their hospi talities. Among many cariosities exhibited to ns by these brothers was an enormous jawbone containing five glistening teeth, and all in a perfect state of preservation. The jawbone * twelve inches in circumference. Mr. I Dick Kennedy informed ns that in coming up the Missouri river five years ago, the boat land ed at a post and a party of whites came in from the pursuit of a thieving band of Sionx; one of the party had a jawbone in his possession, and stated that an Indian scout, who accompanied the whites, led them into a grove of very tall trees, and pointing np to where a stretcher was laid across from one tree to another, nearly one hundred feet high, informed them that on the stretcher was laid the body of the great Indian [giant, tbe grandfather of tbe celebrated Sioux warrior, Red Cloud. Some of tbe party climbed [to the stretcher and cut away the fastenings, and tbe skeleton fell to the ground and of oonrse was broken. The party placed the limbs and body together, and it measured “nine feet and two inches.” The under jaw, which is now in the possesssion of Mr. Kennedy, was carried off by one of the party, and Mr. Kennedy bought it for twenty dollara. It is indeed a relio of an enormous human being, and can be seen at Mr. [Kennedy’s cabin at any time by the curious. ' Advice to Little Girls. ET MAUI TWAIN. Good little girls ought not to make mouths [at their teachers for every trifling offenoe. This retaliation should only be resorted to under pe culiar aggravating circumstances. If you have nothing but a rag doll stuffed with saw dust, while one of your moro fortunate little playmates has a costly little china one, you should treat her with a show of kindness, nevertheless. And you ought not to attempt to make a forcible swap unless confidence wonld justify you in it, and you know yon are able to do it. Yon ought never to take yonr little brother’s “chewing gam” away from him by main force; it ie better to rope him in with the promise of the first two dollars and a half floating down tho river on a grindstone. In the artless simplicity natural to his time of life he will regard it as a perfectly fair transaction. In all ages of the world this eminently plausible fiction has lured the obtuse victim to financial ruin and disaster. If at any time you find it necessary to correct your brother, do not correct him with mnd— never, on any acoonnt, throw mnd at him, be cause it will spoil his clothes. It is better to scald him a little, for then you obtain desirable results. You secure his immediate attention to thejleason yon are inoulcating, and at same time yonr hot water will have a tendency to remove impurities from his person, and possibly the skin in spots. If your mother tells yea to do a thing, it is wrong to reply that you won’t It is better and more becoming to reply that yon will do as she bids yon, and then afterwards act quietly in tho matter according to the dictates of yonr best judgment. 1 ■Yon should ever bear in mind that it is to your kind parents that you are indebted for yonr food, and yonr nice bed, and for yonr beau tiful clothes, and for the privilege of staying at homo from school when yon let on that yon are sick. Therefore you ought to respect their lit tle prejudices, and humor their little whims, and pnt.np with their foibles until they get to crowding yon too much. Good little girls always show marked defer ence for the aged. You ought never to “sass’ old people unless they “boss” you first. Axoxa the most interesting sights to 're seen at the theatre in Salt Lake Uity is the young army of Youngs, the Prophet’s progeny, who generally occupy the benches along one side of the parquet. Boys and girls, young men and young women, apparently without number, ranging in years from seven to twenty, play and sport with each other like so many kittens. Finer or healthier specimens of humanity yon cannot find anywhere. The male portion are strong, healthy and robnst; tbe females very womanly looking, with dear oomplexions and bright eyes, They have ail splendid teeth and beautiful heads of hair. The girls are very roguish, and are not at all averse to leveling their opera-glasses upon any handsome and no- ted Gentile who may be present. They seem to appreciate retnm glances, and thenlangh and giggle over the fun like a lot of school girls. Getting a full view of the family of the Prophet, and dissecting them mentally, morally and physically, tbe unprejudiced thinker can not agree with those philosophers who assert that the offspring of polygamic marriages are weak and puny creatures. That such may be the ease in some instances may be true ; bnt in no sense can it apply to this Young family. Sore of the 'Western journals are advising the farmers to burn their corn, as a matter of econ. omy, in preference to selling at low prices to buy coal. RAILROAD TIME TABLE.
