Wagner, was in occupation of Mc- Dermitt. The other officers of Ute com pany were Lieut. N——, a young man. and the surgeon. Winnemucca, Chief of the Indians, was the father of a daughter who poe a seed wonderful beauty and a fine mind. Desiring to fit her for a position in civ ilized, rather than savage life, the sa chemhadsenthertoßan Francisco, where she had received a thorough educa tion. Returning to her father, he had ob tained for her, through the assistance of bis many friends among the whites, the position of interpretress st McDermitt In 1869, she was stationed at that poet in quarters of her own, a well-dreosod, 1 isndaotna woman of about 92 years of age, receiving a monthly salary' of gtt> in gold. With all the arte of her wily nature tli e girl sought to win the affections of the only bachelor officer in camp, whom we will call Ltenk. Nemo, and within two months the young fellow openly avowed Ira nitentsm of making Sarah Winns muroa his wife His Captain, as became him, argued against this strange mesalliance, bnt, hading Nsano thosoughly in earnest, and waiting only for some passing minister to tie the nuptial kapt, be dropped the matter, and would have given It no fur ther thought hail not his attention been shortly thereafter called to it in a new and star*. Hg way. While the lovers yet awaited the com ing of a minister, the wife of the sutler, whose store was just without the limits of eamp, informed Capt. Wagner that she had discovered a plot among ths Winnesnnccas to murder the garrison, seek the post, announce Barati Wince amcea as their Queen, and begin a war of extermination against the whips throughout all the plain country—-and Lieut Nemo, carried away by his intern ■ ation foe the Indian girl, had agreed to ioin the savages. 8o monstrous was the story that at the Captain refased io believe it, but in burned, frightened whispers ths "•tree's Wisc told bun that she had over iitwr.l the plan discussed by the Lieu ’•'nant with some jramora beneath the I’orr-window kbs*vening before, and at ‘aat the fcwisi< to admit that he danger tcioaty esfotod. ** When wfl gte plan PX ceuttooF askajP*«ner. “ To-nighs; itUmMaranes f- nnfarsul ihe other. “ I sir, to tell yon of it, but had 4r> waft until you cainrf’berA Th* Lien enant is <m d»ty, vuu know He will *• *• mMM, bow tee fwd. •-1 I I I 1,1 ~ ~~ ----- ~ ~IIT- . - l. 11 LU. howfta*. and JBQlndiain uiiitNijae!” it traa F duak * iflr’n wtqt >»» « uly ba hen-marked, *<Ysx>wA.

Supper was oSer, S»d «mu of the men were lounging about M the Captain eutered. Quietly calling a trusty oerporal to his aide, he said: “After guard ■ phired. and jnst lie fore moonrise, which is at 11, take four men, with their arms, and go to the stables. Close the doom and remain until morning. Open to no one but myself. Do not communicate your duty to any o»ept those whom you take with you. ” The man touched lun hat and moved away. This was to prevent the false Lieutenant from atysUug the horses, should he choose to attempt it, instead of capturing them. Thin the Captain passed on to lus own quarters. The hours fled—9, 10, 11. In fifteen minutes the moon would niw. The sutler'! wife was right. The sen tinel was “off duty," and the guard all within doors. Not a living creature was to be seen, and the cold starlight fell upon as solitary a group of adobe build ings ai if the ]»oet had l>een deeortod for years. Suddenly, however, a single figure ap peared. In full uniform, with sword and pistol-holster at his waist, Capt, Wagner emerged from hix door, and, silently croamng the jiarado-grouml, turned with rapid tread down the stage-road toward the Winnemucca camp. The distance was short, and, just as the first rays of the rising moon tinged with spectral white the dark carpet of sage-brush that cowrefi all ths plain, the officer found himself upon a slight eminence overlooking the teepee huts of the Indians. This was the sight which met his eyes Around a council-fire were gathered the chieftain and warriors of the tni>e, all arrayed in war-paint, and fully armed, and in the midst, upon apdoof blankets, stood Lieut. Nemo, his sword drawn, Im arms outstretched, his head bare, evi dently engaged iu the delivery of a stir ring address to ths savages about him 1 Wagner's heart leapM within him. Drawing his own sword, he hastenevi forward, quickly passi-d the fine of squaws without the circle, and, before the Indians had the slightest thought of his presence, burst through their ranks, and appeared alone in their very midst I So great was the astonishment of the braves that no one moved or spoke, and old Winnemuoua, even, bowed in token of fealty to the army Hue of the officer. The Captain, however, did not notice him, but, advancing until directly in front of the dozed Nemo, he cned in ringing tones. "Sir, I demand your sword !" As if in a strange dream, the Lieuten ant slowly extended his weapon toward -his < fficcr. The latter took it fr<wn hia hand, and, breaking it, threw the pieces upon the ground. "You are under arrest! March be fore me to camp! ” he said ; then, turn ing quickly toward the imtounded In dians, in threatening voice he con tinued : “Tlw man who moves dies I Bowaro of the oarbu.es in the sage-brush In land you ' Winnemucca, treacherous chief! I command you to appear be fore me to-morrow I" With these words, driving Nemo be fore him. the brave Captain retired from the virde, and disappearevl along the road toward camp, while, after a little, the savages, tl«wu»gtly frightened, crept quietly to tbair huta, regarding with suspicions glance the shadows of the sago abont them, the council-fire was extinguished, and night and silence again rcignevL The revolt was at an end and score* of lives saved by the quick wit and won derful nervw of a amgb naan Harah Winnemucca afterward married Nemo, who was simply dismissed the service as crazy.

HARLEM, GEORGIA. TUESDAY. MAY 31, 1881. A GOLDSV TAI9. I was talking with a representative of die Pacific coast, writes Qath, and he said that New York was now inhabited by nearly all the survivor* of the flnah year* in Han Francisco, Speculation, he said, utterly cleaned oat the Pacifio coast in character, in health, iu emigra tion, in confidence, and finally th* people rushed from the throttle of the •jsK'ulator* over to the sand-lottere and tramps. A new constitution was adopted, which sent meet of the speflnfsttvr wealth out of California, and banished the specu- I a tore. What has been the result T W» are <«tenail>ly a poorer people, bnt w* are a happier people than we have been for ten years. Evwj-body figgl to lean tliat gambling, dreaming dreams, living fast, and leaving honesty and God out of every human calculation, were dead bulnrwe. Thousands of our people hope nevot to be rioli again, finding compenaatio>is they liad not understood in their fan> iliea, in methodical labor, and m regu lated habits. A large number of the i»e*l men died of heart disease, the re sult of champagne drinking, want of sleep, and greet mental pressure. Oth ers cximmitted suicide. Many aban doned their wives and took up with parsing mistressea, and when they came to their senses found their own tamlbee hail imitated them, and there had to be forgivenca* all round before they could come together. In the midst of it all the great source of mineral wealth, the Oomstock lode, failed and has not revived. Mining in California is nqw profitable in the small, bnt not in the large. An abundance of •mall production *till gives a large ag gregate, but nothing to speculate on. We have, therefore, nothing to liet about in California The very center ol mining has gone far to the east of us, and is In Colorado or isolated parte of Nevada Nearly all the men going up and down trying to sell mines are on tiseir uppers - Gist is, are next to barefooted. Con sequently the late mmixig speculation hiw got into railroads and transportation The apeculative element is governing the whole social life of New York at this moment Large as New York is, it may produce some condition* which laid Hau Francisco low.
