THE SQUAWS DKKKS—OOUBTSIIIP.
Red Clouii Agency, Kept. **. Thn
Indian squaws are exceedingly inter
esting to a visitor to the agencies.
Their faces are more oval shaped
than the males, and less stern of ex
pression. One might even say thev
had a pleasing expression. They
wear their ooal-biack hair in two
braids hanging down on either side
of their head. To one of these braids
is fastened a little bag ornamented
with beads, and filled with sweet
smetHUK leaves. Their teeth are bet
ter than those of the men, white and
even, and rarely decayed, This re
deeming feature saftens the sensual
lootfoOhtptrfe month and thick
lipui> Their eyft are large, almond
shaped, and something of a dark
brown, sparkling and merry. While
it Is bard to associate the idea of
beauty with a squaw whose garments
ar tßtty, yet I have seen those
faces eouW Not fall
to please. Their usual garment
is a calico dress, called chan
le'i/jgii-nncka-minnie-hoa, made in one
piece, Vkh flowering sleeves. It is
gathered at the waist. by
a (jroad leather belt, worked
with "brass heads and or
naments of German silver.
This sack is cut short, exposing red
flannel leggings, called hoomka. and
buckskin moccasins handsomely
adorned with beads and paf--ted por
cupine puills. Occasionally a red
sack is worn, studed with elk teeth,
winter or summer. Occasionally a
squaw may be seen in summer time
with a variegated umbrella. Pieces
of German silver and brass wire are
made into finger rings, and armlets
are in common use. Large holes, va
rying in length from a half-inch to
an ineh long, and from a quarter of
an Ineh to a half-inch in width, are

ut in ihe upper and lower part* of
he ear. In these holes are fastened
arge brass rings, to which are attach
’d turquoise beads, divided Into from
ivo to leu longitudinal sections. In
uch section are from three to live
tends, fastened together by means ol
mekskin and rawhide. On the end
•{ this ear-ring js the handsomest
■ortion of a ntn tlier of-pearl shell. I
inve eu as many as three of these
irtioles of adornment in one ear. A
leeklaee of the same material and
ashloned in the same manner is worn
ibout the neck.
The only weapon carried by a
squaw is a knife, called me le, placed
in a handsomely beaded case and
fastened to the waist-belt. For oe
msionsof ceremony uud dances the
itiokskin dress and loggings are
lonned. There garments are gor
geous with homi-work, the shoulders
ind sleeves being covered with beads
in various devices representing men
,iud animals. The leggings have the
same ornaments. They are expert in
tiie management of horses, and at a
listanee it is difficult to distinguish n
squaw from a “buck,” as their man
ner of riding Is identical, even to the
incessant punching of the ponies’
sides with the heels and beating the
beast with a whip. In childhood
they play merrily ns white Children,
making mud pies, building minia
ture lodges, and seemingly making
the most of their time against the
hardships of maturer years. Asa
rule they all paint their faces. One
of their fashions is a tattoo, a small
round spot in the center of tho fore
head and streuk down the center of
tiie chin.
The age of womanhood is hailed
with gladness by the parents, arid is
tbe occasion of rejoicing in tbe form
of a feast, to which are invited all the
friends of the family. On this great
oeeeasion the joyful father of the
girl gives away as many ponies,
robes, and blankets to his friends and
the poor of the tribe as his possessions
per ait. Now the young girl is care
ful of her personal 4pi*eurance. as
the ‘‘bucks” will watch her. She
adorns herself in garments of flam
ing colors, paints in an extravagant
manner, and powders her hair with
sweet-smelling leaves. Polygamy is
tho almost universal practice. There
are three inodes of marriage. The
courtship of oue form of marriage is
conducted hi a singular maner. A
youug “buck” becoming enamored
of a young squaw, waits a conven
ient time, when approaching stealth
ily. he wraps his blanket around her,
and then, holding her in a firm grasp,
pours his tale of love into her some
times unwilling ear. This being com
pleted, he goes to the father and the
price of the maiden is agreed upon
according to the young mau's
wealth; one to three and some
times more ponies arc given for
tho girl. This transaction being fin
ished, the girl become* the warrior's
wife, whether she has said “Yes” or
"No.” There is one thing certain,
however, th.itwliilo *he remains with
hi in she obeys him. The Squaw may
leave tier husband, or rat her she may
be deserted by him ; and then going
back to her family, she Is ready to be
bought again. There seems no espe
cial regard between tiie "buck” and
tiie squaw. In view of this fact the
Indian, strangely enough, evineesa
strong affection for his children.
Where there is no love between man
und wife you would suppose this could
not exist. It is nevertheless a fact
that the children are dearer to an In
dian than Ids horses. Of course the
squaws grow old fast, and soon be
come ugly hags. At this stage they
are treated as an incumbrance. Old
men us well as women have been left
frequently on tho prairie to die. A
small Store of provisions to sustain
life for a few days is given them ; this
gone, death by starvation follows.
This, I am told, is no longer practiced
by the Agenoy Indians.” Corresp. N.
Y. Tribune.
Tbr Vale of I*.lnner,.
Geology, says a writer in Black
woof I'm Maijatiiw, leaves no doubt as
to the truth of the old t radition that
the great valley of Kashmir was once
a magnificent lake,which has now
subsided, leaving only remnants of
itself here and there. The name of
this ancient lake was Hahtisar, and
the mountains surrounding it were
thickly peopled. The tradition goes
on to say that, the lake became the
abode of a terrible monster called
Yaldeo, who after, devouring all the
fish there were in the great water,
proceeded to appease bis hunger by
devouring the inhabitants of the sur
rounding hills, who, lit consequence,
itad to fly into the higher mountains
above. At Iliis stage tiie traditional
rishi, or holy man, makes his appear
ance on the field; his name was
Kaahaf, and Ivis great sanctity had
given him the power* of working
I miracles. This holy man proceeded
Ito the northwest end of the lake,
where the Jetain now Issues from the
vajley at Haratniila, struck the
ground with his trident, and the open
ing earth caused the waters of the
lake to disapiiear, which soon
brought about the death of the mon
ster Yiildep. Hence the name Kash
mir, which is made out to be a con
traction of Kashafmar. the place or
country of Kashaf, the rishi, who
may thus be said to have made it.

NEWS niOM THE PANDORA—REMAINS Or
SIR JOHN FRANKLIN FOUND! >
New York, Oct. 18. - A London spe
cial to the Herald gives some inter
esting details of the cruise of the
Pandora to the Arctic regions for the
purpose of receiving dispatches from
the British Expedition under Captain
Hare.
The steamer crossed the much
dreaded Melville Buy without en
countering ice. They were disap
pointed in not receiving Cupt. Hure's
dispatches at Carri Island ; nnd so
tlioy steered on to Lancaster Sound.
Tliero they encountered giant iee
Iloes and navigated with much dlffi
oulty. On reaching Barrow's Straits
they were enveloped in Impenetrable
fog. At length Beechy Island was
reached, August 25th, and a strange
discovery was made.
They found the yacht Mary, which
had been drawn up on tho beach by
Capt. Boss, in 1850, still standing with
her masts upright. Bear trucks were
also found. The head hoards over
the graves of Sir John Franklin’s
men were still standing erect and in
good preservation.
Tho Pandora then sailed for Peel
Strait, and was beset on tho voyage
by vast packs of Held ice. She passed
the furthest point reached by the Mc-
Clintoek expedition, and reached
King William’s Land, thus navigat
ing a sea never sailed by any vessel
before, except, perhaps, by Franklin.
She then steamed down the west
coast or Prince of Wales’ Land, where
delightful weather, soft, refreshing
atmosphere, and open eximnses of
water, with warm air currents, were
enjoyed. Tiie offloers were intensely
excited, nnd expected important re
sults. Many of them believed that
they would discover traces of the
Franklin expedition, nnd some were
hopeful that Sir John Franklin's pa
pers would be found, and they would
eventually make Behring's Straits,
but in this they were disappointed.
They encountered solid ice fields at
Rouquette Island, which effectually
blocked the vessel’s further progress.
They stayed there until the 7th of
September, and then set out on thoir
return voyage.
MORE ABOUT THE AIK TIC EXPEDITION.
New Y’ork, Oct. 18. A Herald spe
cial, from Portsmouth, England, re
garding tho Polar expedition, says
Capt, Hare’s expedition had crossed
Melville Bay July 27th, and proceed
ed northward. According to the let
ters left on Carri's Island by Hare, ;
and brohght to Portsmouth by the
Pandora, the Government ships
Alert and Discovery ran died t lie
Island July 27th, and proceeded on
their way up Smith's Sound, after a
short delay. The weather was im- •
usually favorable, the sea being open,
and tho expedition met. with no seri
ous impediment.
Capt. Hare says all hands are in ex
cellent health und spirits, and ho an
ticipates favorable results to the voy
age.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act,
If one grain of Varelas Virus, taksn from the
cow s udder aud kept dry for years, than mois
tened. and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
iu it and drawn gently on tbe arm, a* m not to
draw the hiood. will so impregnate aud cluing*
tho entire system a* to prevent the party .vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome dis
eases (small pox) for an entire Uf; again, if. the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will chaug* an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not tbs
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts With
impunity f
We claim that there is such a remedy, aud that
we have prepared it. aud applied it, and proved
it iu our Anti-malarial *or Euchymial Belt—aud
that persous who will wear this Belt may inhabit
tho worst malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chilis aud Fever. Biliious or lutermltteut Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver aud
Spleeu, Indigestion, Constipatiou aud Hem
orrhoids, slid the it will cure all tbe above.dis
eases. except the worst casas of Billions and Yel
low Fever.
This ill called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of tbr ~<>dy and
produces a healthy actiou, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling It to per orm its various
duties without feariug the effects of malaria la
the least.
It has been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained irora the proprietors iu
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad aud Peachtree streets, Atlanta Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3. or $6 v lift a guaran
tee that it will cute or the mousy refunded.
SI. B.—None genuine without tba trade mark
Is stamped upon them.

Room No. 8, Powell Building, Atlanta, Ga.
A liberal discount made to the trade.
Caution.— This Belt or Pad, like ail article* of
merit, is being imitated by parties who ary'try
ing to put up a worthless article, as there is not
a living person, besides ourselves, that knows
the ingredients in it. We are tbe patentees, and
have our Belt protected by s Trade Mark.
Sure Curk.— In another column will be found
two remarkable certificates about the efficacy of
DrH. Willson k Love's Malarial Belts. The diffi
culty in the wsy of using these belts la that they
are so simple that few can believe that there is
any virtue in them. When a patient is told to
use one he is very much like Naaman when told
that, to cure his leprosy, he had only to bathe in
the river Jordan. liuu. John E. Ward says that,
during his stay iu China, as Minister, these belts
were used with great Success as preventives ui
cholera. We know a case where a lady had been
suffering with chills for more than a year,.and
was finally induced to adopt one of these bolts.
She has not had a return of the chills since, and
hUh is fully persuaded that it Is owing to the belt.
Dr. WUlson’s terms are very lair— no cure, no
pay.

popular remedies, bat only had tampoyery relief
until about three months since, 1 Was induced, by
your agent, Captain W. R. White, to wear one of
your “Anti-Marial Belts." I have not had a chUl
since putting U on. It has enabled me to look
alter my farming interest more closely, and ex
pose myself to rain and sunshine more than tor
nineteen years. It has been worth to me, in
feelings and abaolute results, not less than five
hundred dollars.
I cheerfiiUy recommend It to aff '-Shaker#."

since, one of yonr “Anti-Malarial Belts," which I
have worn, and during tin* time I have had only
one chlU, which wae brought on b being exposed

more good than ail the internal remedies put for
