A Memorable l dfan Fight.
A sharp Indian light, one of the moat
closely-contested that ever took place
in ''exas, wts fought on the 27th of I
January, 18u1. Lieutenant Ed. Bur- e:
loson, with a detachment of cavalry, a
was on his way from San Antonio to S
Camp Los Ojuelos. al
:
When near the Nuces river, he saw o
three Comanche Indians on horseback. w
Taking eight men, and ordering the w
rest of the party to keep the roi.d and o
move on, he pursued them. r
<
After running for twoor three miles h
the Indians camne up with eleven of hl
their band on foot, and prepared for w
batttle.
Burleson's mien, who were old Texan
rangers, moved up within fifty or sixty U
yards of the Comanche line, and open
ed the fight.* By some mistake they dia- zn
mounted. The Indians charged, and a il
terrible band-to-hand tight ensued. I
Shots were fired at the distance of a h
loot or two.
'tie field was an open prairie, on 1b
which there was not oven a bush for h
cover. It was a trial of btrength, skill g
and courage. The rangers fought be- d
hind their horses, shooting under them
or over the saddles.
Ied men and white mnen, Colt's six- a
shooting carbinem id bows and arrows, 1
revolvers and lances were mingled in P+
a general meiee. Thero was no shout- Dl
ing, no maieiverliig, but each titan
fought on his own 'hook,'' and for life. a
Many of the incidents of personal w
prowess would, if they had. occurred in I
a battle between niedhuval knights, '
have been. celebrated in song and t
chronicle.
A Comanche singled out Joi Carr,
a cool, brave ranger, and charged tipont ti
him With bow itd lanlce. Jem, with P
steady alnu, fired at and shot himn; then t
fired again, with the same citect. Theti
Indian still advanced, shooting arrow e
after arrow. Tile arrews caie with k
less and less -force, until the last one d
hardly loft the bow, as the plucky, de- t
determined warrior fell dead it few feet
from his white foe.
Jem received four severe wounds.
"It was like clock-work,'' ho said ; b
"every time,I raised my carbine they ii
- stuck an arrow in me."
le had his caiirine to his Iw-e, rt;ad y
to lire, when an arrow, passing through tt
the last joint, of his right forefinger zi
pierced the breech of the gun. Luckily
the wood splintered and released his
haud. ti
Baker Barton, one of those in- si
demttlble spirits who are ga:ne unto i l
the last, received three mortal wounds. W
lie died on his' feet, holding to. the a
horn of his saddle. hi
One of the coolest of the rangers was e
a man named Leach. ills self-posse.
S1on was wonderful. Burleson, seeing
an Indian aiming a pistol at Leheh,
raised his revolver to shoot.
"'I)on't shoot at him, L.ieutenant,' c
called oit Leach ; "he's only blulllng, i
I've been watching him; there Is no
load in his pistol.''
Finally the Indiantis led, having eight c
wounmded and leavig four (dead on the L
field. Th'iey were so thlorouIghly wip- a9
pod that, contrary to thiri culstom, they
did not tatke their dead with them. Tiwo
or the rangers were killed and' several ti
wore wounded. A genltlimn whok

RooM DECORATION.-Fashion in dress
do not vary more gtulckly than fashion
in room de;;orations, .ind every mont h1
shows some now device for the bedizen
ing of our borlie. It 1s impossible fcr
people to adopt every novel frditk In the
matter of room ornament, and the best
plan Is that they should choose the idas
that are the most suitable to their taste
and the most easily adapted to their
materials and cirumnistances. We are
learning that houses to be attractive
should be Individual ; and we may rest
assured that the fact that variety is
charming is as true of this as it is of
many other matters. If one Is paying
a long round of calls and has the mem
ory of six or seven drawing rooms, all
pretty and ocstly, but all showig signs
of having rather b5en furnished with
regard to the taste of a inshionable up
holsterer than to that of their mis
tresses, what i relief it is to enter a
room entirely different, where every
thing, however simple, bears th,e look
of having been approved and bhoien
and arranged by one with a line eye
for beauty of color and form and a de.
licate instinct for harmony of line.
This art of room arrangement is one
which saves much money, for a woman
who owns it does not need to discard
unfashionable furniture or out-of-data
ornaments. which would be a eyesore
in inany rooms. .B3y her faculty of ar
rangemuent she discerns just the place
where the angular table will lit in and
look well and appropriate and In what
corner the objectlonable console will
lighten the roomn by its gleai' of mirror
and gilding. Among the many pretty
notions which have been lately intro
duced is that of "over doors.'' Te de
vices introduced for this purpose are
numorous-stag's antlers, convex eagle
mirrors. makes of statues on oval vel
yet shields, and even Clusters of d ap
anese or peacock screens. The faney
of a half moon shapud design In Vune
tian mosaic,sunk in a deep band of
diark velvet, may he new to many, and
would have in many rich rooms a very
ben utiful l'eet. '.L'he arrangemen11t of
blue china, and shelves aid brackets of
ebonized or enameled wood, always

In basso relievo, as long as the door IS
wide, will be effective ii many ro>ms
the ground of the frieze might even be
colored of a faint green or blue, so as
to give it the appearance of a Wedg
wood plaque. If you hang a' picture
over a door, do not let i t be a small wa
ter color sketch or anything of that
kind, so that its beauty is entirely lost
on anybody under eight feet high ; the
pictures that look best over -doors are
still life pices of flowers or fruit.
I1INTs about ealeimining: Buy the

morning pour off the water, as it sn

water,.put in a paill, and set that In a
kettle of boiling water. When dissolv

enough water to make it, after mixing,
of the same consistency of common

color, ail is applied with a whitewash

AGRICULTURE.
BAII.Y on OAT.-In regard to gl
whether it is better to sow oats or bar- B
Icy, mnuch depends on climate and soil.
-tin sections where oats do well, and
barley usually fails, it would be uniwise
to sow barley. But in those sections ,
where the climate is alike favorable for M
barley or oats, and where it is a ques
tion of s11 anti preparation, it may be an
observed : 1st. That oats sometimes do th
well on an old sod, but barley rarely, ab
if ever, does so. 2d. Oats ripen later '1
than barley, and while It is very desira- w
ble to 9oMoats as early as the iand1 can wi
be -got into good condition, still you ru
stand a better chance of a crop from he
late sown oats than late sown barley. wC
3d. Oats will do far better on low,
mucky land, than barley. If such land
be wvell dIraitied and ia in good heart, ,e
and Ii fine, mellow condition-as after ho
a well 'cultivated corn, potuto or root ut<
crop-at great crop of barley may some- in
tines be grown, especially If the land ;
has been tined, but the chanees are al
together more favorable for a great crop n
of oats. 4th. On low, mucky laud, that du
is only partially dralned, and which dM3
cannot be worked early in the season, 'u:
it would be folly to sow barley. If
sown at all, I would drill in oats, if the h
land was dry enough to adinit the use qu
or the drill; or If not, sow the oats roe
broadcas:, and If they coulti not be liar- wil
rowed in, let them sprout on the sur- C00
hace, aci roll the land when It is firm "'"
enough to hold up the horses. It would
he better, however, to summer fallow
such land, working it thoroughly, and gie
make it clean and mellow, and then eel
setid it down heavily with timothy (and ful
perhaps red top) next A-igust. Atany *
rate, do not sow barley. 5th. Oats will a
do better on heavy clay land tla i bar
Iey. This Is the rule. The exceptions
are ra re. The heaviest crop of barley I
ever saw was on a field of heavy clay B
iaud that was summer 'allowed the year th
previous for wheat by three plowings, .
and idn not sown to wheat ii the full,
but plowed again In the spring early
and sown it) barley. Everythiug was
lavorable, and the crop was immense.
6th. On weedy land it is better to sow
oats than barley. Drill in the oats deep F
and use plenty of seed. Roll thie land
either at the timie of sowing or after the 4
oats are up. Then when the weeds are
sprouted, and are in the seed leaf, go an
over the fIeld once or twice, or three 1
times. if necessary. with a light, fiue- br(
toothed harrow', for the purpose of Iri
killing the young weed plants. Oats re
can be harrowed with less injury to the ,
plants than barlev. And if tile soll and tee
weather are favorable, an'l the opera- be
tiot perfornind at the right Inoment, yei
!hout ands of weeds will be destroyed,
and the stirring of the ground will be I
favorable to the growth of the oats. btr

FLAX CurTUui.-A neglected iudui- rel
t.ry in the Umited States is that of flax tna
gruwinl and the man ufacture of lini en,
l.orty . eau s ago, iearly every farmer im i
the country knew how to raiseand pro- wi
pare llax for domestic use, and many cur
of our fathers and mothers were to i'u
sone extent engaged in this mnanufac- itn
ture. Now, however, besides a few at
small milla in New York and New Jor
soy, the business is given over to for
eign nlanufacturers. Of the raw flax
used :y t.he crash and threal mills,
4,0.0 touns are imported, and 1000 tons
ard hoinie grown, chIletly in the north- I
.eastern portion of the State of New
York. A considerable portion of the Mi
linported is Russian, a part, that of the
lItl
best, is Beiglan, a part Canadian, andi e
some Irsh1. What is requirod at t his reI
time is, that our farmers attendl to (lie Vai
requtiremnenits of fert.ilizers and thre re
lation of crops nrecessary to grow the u2
fl'er to periection, and then sowv the oi
tproper amonunt of seed, two or three
bmmsibels per aecre, pull It belore over
rip)e, steep) it, and spread It lust long
enough toseparte the fibre nompletely,

FALSE AND TRUE.
We extract from Dr. Radway's "Treatise OP
dilsease and Its Cure," as follows:
List of Diseases Cured by
Radway's Sarsaparillian ResolYEnt
Chronto Skin Diseases, Caries of the Bone
Humors in the Blood, Scrofulous Dise es. B'ad
or unnatural habit of Body, Syphilis and Vene
real, Fever Sores, Chronic or old Ulcers, Salt
Rheum, RIckets, White Swelling, Salt Head,
Uterine Atfuctions, Cankers Olandui r Swell
ings, Nodes, Vast.tng and ISecy of the Body.
Pimples aind lilotches. Tumors, Dysuepsia. Kid.
ney and Bladdor Diseases, Ohronic Rh -umatisn
and Gout. Oonsumption, Grtvel and Calculous
Deposits, and varieties of the above complaints
to which sometimes are given specious names.
Wo assert that th re is no known remedy that
possesses the eurat ive power over these dis
eases th.t IIADWAY'S IiESOLVENT furniab'P. It
cures, step by step, surely, from the founda
tion, and restores the Injured parts to their
sound condition. 'rhe wanton of the body
are Slopped and Iretlthy binod is sup.
plied to the system, from wlllch new ma.
terial 14 formed. 'Tis is the flsHt corrective
power of IADWAT's RSSOLVENT. In eases where
t he system has been salivated and Mercury,
: toksilver, Corrosive Sublimato have accumu
"td and become deposited In the bones, joints
etc., causing carltfs or tile h>ones, rickets, spinal
curvatures, cont')rtions. white swellings, vari
cose Veins, etc., the SARSAFARILLIAN will resolve
away those deposits an I exterminate the virus
'if the disease from the system.
If those who are taking ths'se medicines for
the cure of Chronic. Scr.'fulous or 8yphilitic dis
eases, however slow may b' the cure, "teel bet.
ter," and find their general health improving,
:hoir flesh and weight, incronsing, or even keep
ing its own is a sure sign th. the cure is pro
gressing. Yn those diseases the patient either
ets better or worse-the virus of the disease
S:tot inactive; If not arrested and driven frei
the blood it will spread and continue to unde
mine the constitution. As soon as the 8Aaa
PARiLLIAN makes the pat lent "'feel better," every
hour you will grow better and increase in health,

The removal of those tumors by RAIwAY's
