[Written especially for tbe Union Times.] MY PXEBLE88 IDEAL. IIY LAVIOA. Enshrined in iny heart is a picture true. Of a soft young fhee, and fair, With lovelit oyes of heaven's own bluo, And a wealth of sunny hair. A brow as parian marble white, IP And lips as the coral red ; - + " With teeth as polished ivory bright, And breath by the roses fed. A check that rivals tho blush of morn; . When daylight her glory spreads; A manly broast with afTcction warm And soft as the moss-rose bed. A form that would grace the throne of a king, , An air as soft as the breeze ; . A voice as swoet as the birds of Springy That iarol among the trees. A snulQ that thtills as electric wave I And forces the pulso to start, j Ah ! this is the picture I have engraved, On tho tablet of the heart. ' Plkasant Valk, S. C ' - ? I THE RED DEVILS AT WORK.

San Francisco, June 19.?Details of the Indian outbreak in Idaho and Oregon show that the Indians had possession of tho whole (Jamas prairie, except the Town of Mount Idaho, which they ate threatening. Col. Ferry, with one hundred soldiers, sonic citizens and friendly Indians, marched against theui. Quite a number of men, women, children and teamsters were massacred. Twentv-ninc whites were killed.? The whites had killed White Hird, chief of the hostilcs, and his family. Later.?The troops, with 150 citizens from Mount Idaho, encountered the Indians at the head of White Ilird Canon. Tho troops dismounted and left a few of tho soldiers and twenty Iudians to hold their horses. Tho Iudians opened fire on the troops, and fighting had continued for some time, when the friendly Indians became alarmed. The soldiers guarding the horses could see that tho Indiaus were gotting the best of the fight, and that the soldiers were retreating. The captain of the party of citizens with Scrg't. Lyttlc and one private are known to have been killed. The whole of the horse guards, both Indians and whites, broke and ran, some fur Mouut Idaho and some for Lapevia, leaving the horses to ruu loose over tho prairie. Those coming to Lapevia never stopped till they reached tho post. Many ?we prairie uu.v. v? A soldier who reached tho garrison at 8 o'clock, on the morning of the 18th, from th<j fight, reported that tho troops were on foot ami surrounded by Indians in the canon, nud, in a bund to hand fight, Col. Perry and about half of his command arc said to have boon killed. The remainder were surrounded and fighting against odde wheu this informant loft. The Indians engaged in the fight aro non-treaty Nez Perces. They, together with other disaffected tribes, number about two hundred effective warriors. There is a general uprising of the savages, and the whole country is wild with alarm. The Indians are massacreing men, women and children on the Camas Vrairio, and the settlers arc fleeing in all directions for nattily (?eii. Howard is at Lcwiston, but is powerless, owing to the sniallness of his force. Troops havo been ordered tc his aid from a number of posts in the department, and will soon be on their way to tho scene of the disturbances. (Icn. McDowell, commanding the Division of the Pacific, has been telegraphed to and speedy assistance demanded. Further sanguinary details are expected at Lcwiston. Governor Cliadwick has been applied to for arms, ttc. ?? CllEAl' OlHLS.?A t^irl who makes herself too cheap is one to be avoided. No - ?? man, not even the worst, excepting for a naae purpose, wuuci rmj^Kin^ to do with a cheap young lady. For a wife, none but a fool or rascal will approach such a woman. Cheap jewelry nobody will touch if he can get any better. Cheap girls arc nothing but the refuso; and the young men know it, and they will look in every other direction for a lifo-loiig friend and companion before they will give a gjanco at the pinchbeck stuff that tinkles at every turn for fascinating the eye of any that will look.
