St. Johns, is one of the most flourishing

Elk Hill.
"That spot of earth, supremely blest,
A brighter, sweeter spot than all the rest."
I have often stood upon the summit of
Elk Iliil. which overlooks this City, and
commands such an extensive view of Ne
braska and Iowa, and thought of the
French traveler, who, 50 years ago, see
ing this magnificent panorama spread out
before him, was led to cxcluim in his na
tive tongue, Bellevue, or beautiful view,
a name appropriately expressing the pros
pect which met his enraptured vision, and
which has ever since been used to desig
nate this Town and its environs.
Upon a clear summer's eve, the scene
ry from this point is exquisitely grand and
must awaken in the mind of the most
callous and insensible, feelings of a
sublime and poetic character. Some hun
dred feet below, lies the broad plateau,
upon which the City of Bellevue so proud
ly stands, embellished with substantial
dwellings and storehouses, and breathing
as it were, an air of independent satisfac
tion, of its own natural superiority, for a
large mercantile city. But a few year have
passed away, since this was the camping
ground of the Omaha Indians. W hat a
mighty change has been effected. Civili
zation and refinement have supplanted the
superstitious ignorance of the red man.

Yonder, east of the plateau, is seen the j
turbid waters of the Missouri, winding J
its sinuous course, undisturbed by any-
thing save an occasional steamboat, laden
with the products cf the east. To the
south and west the rich valley of tho Pap
pillion, the timber upon the great valley
of the Platte, and the rich and undulating
prairies north, west, and south, smiling j
with verdant beauty and loveliness, and plans have been submitted to them for ap
presenting to the eye of the observer, a proval ; and next spring will no doubt see
picture of the happiness and pro -perity of the work actively progressing towards
our early pioneer farmers. completion.

peculiar to their faith, and well nigh goad
ed tj ik-spirmioii, by the persecution of
the Gentiles, pressed with rigor and alac
rity, on their march across the plains to
their earthly Canaan. But here let me
linger awhile. On this elovated portion,
are tho rude sepulchers of many departed
warriors of the Omaha nation, furnishing
reflection for tho curious and philosophic
mind. Here is the only memento of Big
Elk, tho noblest nnd most eloquent chief
of tho Omaha tribe. His mound is at
present undisturbed by (he ruthless hand
of the white man, but ere long will only
be known in tho memory of the past, as
the accouteriiiriile attached to it, are fast
di.-uppearing, and lime is making sad hav
oc upon his clayey resceptacle. Some of
tho graves ar much defaced, and others
are leveled with tho earth, and the skulls
and bones of the red man, lay scattered
in every direction. The Indians show a
certain degree of respect for th"ir dead,
and manifest their distress by giving a
blanket or trinkets to some disinterested
squaw, to kneel occasionally at the grave
of the deceased, and utter tho most fear
ful lamentations. They are very super
stitious nnd think it necessary to furnish
the decrnsed with provisions for his sup
port in his new hunting ground. Scraps
of food are daily left nt the side of the
resting place, and n bottle of liquor made
of herbs, is suspended from the top of a
pol placed in the center of the mound.
At night, tho food is eagerly devoured by
the hungry wolves, ond the poor Indian
left in darkness as to the modus operandi
of its vanishment. I was acquainted with
one young lady, who daily visited these
graves with her favorito nu stiff, whose
capicious jaws were often the recipient of
the food intended for the spirit of the In
dian.
Upon this Hill, was formerly the great
rendezvous of the returning War Party,
and I well remember the time the Sioux
were at war with the Omahas, and after
prowling around in this vicinity, would
kill some draggling Indian or Squaw, and
" lift their hnir." ACouncil of chiefs was
held. The signal for retaliation given,
and u band of brave summoned to march
into the enemies country, and when the
wild whoop ol" success was announced up
on this hill, the whole tribe assembled to
welcome them, and shouts of rejoicing
und victory would echo across the wide
ravines as the sculps of their victims were
held up in hellish glee, to the dance of the
War Party. They have a tradition among
them that tho waters of the Big Muddy
extended from this bluff to those on the
Iowa side, some 5 or G miles. It ep
pears tb be rather too broad on expanse
to admit of much credability.
Our first, and chief executive officer,
Gov. Bjrt, whose name is held with res
pect und veu-raiion, by ail who were fa
iniliiir with him had selected this ppot for
the location of the capitol of the Territo
ry, but the icy hand of death deprived
him of his most ardent wish, and the
power fell into the hands of unscrupulous
demagogues, whose only ambition wws
self aggrandisement, "and who betrayed
the best interest of the place they were un
der moral obligation to sustain, and by
' skulduggery" and intrigue, Government
patronage was withheld from us, and Belle
vue robbed of her just ond sacred rights.
It will not be long, ere the Iron Horse
