This in the ntory that the "oldest in habitant" told a JJoaton Qlobo reporter the ether day ; "It was in the month of .lanimry , 181(5 ( , justflixty-oiRht years ago thin very month , that it took place , and nearly scared nil Berkshire county out of tliuir wits , Hoinl lot mo BCO ; it was on the night of the IGth or IGth notho 15th was correct. I lived there with my father in the south part of Adams , just about half a inilo north of the Cheshire lino. Soon after supper I and two or three ether hoys took our sleds and wont out for a const. Wo had a Rroat time , I tell yo ; wo'd > tnrt on a little hill , 'side of a pond , go down with a rush and buzz , away to the ether end of tlio pond. Oh , it was grand spoil ! But that hasn't ' any thing to do with my story , not n mite or n grain. It was 'long about the tinio when wo were getting ready to go homo that it began to snow gently , and I oaw n Hash of lightning. I spoke to the ether boys about it , but they didn't BCO it , and laughed at mo. I felt sura of it though , and when wo rcaoho'd homo 1 told my folks of it. My stars , what fun they did make of mo. Ila , 1ml They couldn't make enough jokes , and so they repeated the same ones over nnd over , and seemed to enjoy them just an much n.i if they were now. When I wont to bed I felt heartily ashamed of myself for having seen BO ridiculous and impossible n thing ns n flash of lightning in midwinter , and uan half convinced that I had boon mis taken. "Not long after midnight wo were awnkcnod by a terrific crash which set thn whole house a trembling. Starting out of bed the room was suddenly lighted by n vivid Hash of lightningwhich lasted , it noomcd , several noconds , nnd was fol lowed by n fearful thundering. Bool it makes my blood run cold even now to think of it. I got down stairs as best I could , and there found the whole family gals and woman folks and all , all hud dled together , their tooth chattering with fear and their eyes bulging out of their heads. 'Dad , ' I whined , has the world como to an end1 ? 4N-n-no , " ho stammered , "but it is n coining fast , an' wo'ro all burning up , ' Just then there was another flash , nnd when it vros over I looked out of the winder and navr at once -what dad mount ; the enow was allen on firol It was falling fast , and as it struck the ground it became red like , and glowed ns if it would burn up everything. Then gradually faded until another Hash caiuo , when it all burst out again. Where the snow lay on a dead level this was not noticeable , but on the fences , the pig-pen , the house , the tip- cart , droppiivg from the branches of the trees , wherever there was a projection of any sort , it glowed and shona like liv ing flame. " The old inhabitant loaned back in his chair , clasped his hands together , and looked away through the distance of yearn and his face became solemn as ho thought of the fear the curious spectacle created. "Were you much frightened ? " ques tioned ono of his listeners. "Frif-htonedl That ain't no word for it. I was scared , air ; scared so much that I nigh shivered myself into the hereafter on that night. Why , that blinding lightning would flash into our eyes , and the thunder came simultane ously , and the old house would go - ? in beam br-r-r-r-r-ugh trembling every and ratter. That continued for several hours , and wo utaid up , never daring to go to sleep huht wo couldn't 'a gene to sleep in that racket , nnd that fearful glow and burning kept up on the snow. I can't describe it , you'd ought to have soon it yourself. llcQ lire that lit up the yard nnd road so that you could see the objects and distinguish them , and BOO the snow como falling s cadily down like as if it would bury us under a man tle of flame. As vro learned afterward , all our neighbors round in that part of the county were just as much disturbed an wo woro. Moruy Jinks , a friend of our family who lived in those parts , was riding on horseback that night from Savoy hollow up to the Center , and I've hoard him toll ninny a time how shook up ho was with fright , for his horse's mono and oars were ilaming red , and the bridle reins were just two ntringsof ilamo reaching from his hand to the bits. "There was another man riding out that night , too ; they're both dead years and years ago. This man was Dr. Uush- ing , a very famous physician at that time , known and rcspootod all over the north ern part of Berkshire. Ho was riding homo from a visit to to well , never mind ; the nauio bos slipped from mo. Ho was out through nil the atorm , and noticed the same things that Moroy Jinks told of , but IIP wasn't so scared us the rest of us. Ho acknowledged that his hair was inclined to rise , but ho was determined to find out what it all meant , so ho rode up to the most convenient ob < joet that showed the ilamo. This happened < ponod to bo a blueksmith shop , the cayoi and sides of which scorned to bo burning up. His horse was dreadful skittish , ami saw the lire as wall OB ho did , and hated to go near to it. But the doctor roigncc him right close up to the shop , ant when ho got there the horse was si frightened that she dropped down on hoi luieos , trembling like n leaf in the wind Dr. Gushing poked oft the blazing BUOY * with the butt of his riding whip , and IK used to toll how it fell to the ground hk ( drops of ilamo , still glowing. Ho kepi his senses about him , but I guess considerable erablo moro'ii half the people in thai part of the county thought the work I was uurely coming to end. What wouU J I you think , now , with all your moderi oddication , your /science / aim philosophy and what not , if you should BOO the fall ing snow and the cold earth all in om grand blare of flaming firof Hey ? Come now , don't you think you'd be n loetli disturbed ? Do I think you'd bo calti and indifferent ? Not a mi to nor a grain. ' And the oldest inhabitant settled bad as if ho had finished a' dispute , and yet could not induce him to Bay another wort on the subject.

Bronco Sam , however , made a snccialt ; of doing all the riding himself. Ill wouldn't enter into any compromise nnd allow the horse to ride him. In n reckless moment ho offered to hot § 10 that ho could mount nnd ride n wild Texas steer. The money was put up. That settled it. Sam never took water. This was tnio in a double sense. Well , lie climbed the cross-bar of the corral gate , and asked the ether boys to turn out their best steer , Mnrquh of Queens- bury rules. As the stcor passed out , Sam slid down and wrapped those parenthetical legs of his around that high bonded , broad horned brute , nnd ho rode him till the ( loot footed animal fell down on the buf falo grass , ran his rod hot tongue out across the blue horizon , shook his tall convulsively , swelled up nadly and diod.

Sold by all Onvo Cities in Arl/ona. Mr. James Stevenson , of the geological survey , has reported to Maj. Powell , as 0110 of the results of his field operation1) last loison , the discovery of several more runod cave and cliff cities , differing in some respects from any ho had before examined. The most remarkable was a village of sixty-five underground dwel lings , situated near the sinnmit > of ono of the volcanic foot-hills of the San Fran- isco mountains in the San Juan region f Arizona. The surface stratum of the ill had by exposure become hardened , , nd formed tlio common roof for the ntiro community. The dwellings were ixcavatod after a common pattern , and a 'cscription ' of ono gives nn idea of the rholo. They had no intercommunication icncath the surface , and were only accos- ibl o by moans of square holes leading 'rom the surface by n vertical shaft to .bo floor of the main room of the dwol- ing. Eoot-rosts holes at convenient distances along the sides ot the shaft orved the purposes of a stairway. Descending the shaft , the explorers 'ound themselves at the side of an oval- Imped arched-roof room , about twenty oot in its smallest diameter. At the ends .nd in the side opposite the pntranco row loorways connected the main room with mailer rooms , the whole suite or dwell- ng consisting of four apartments. Ono if the smaller rooms had its floor oxca- atcd to a depth of two or three foot bo- ow those ot the ether rooms , nnd is sup- > oscd to hnvo served the purpose of storo- oem or cellar for the ancient occupant. The other small rooms may have been bod-rooms. A groove eighteen inches deep by fifteen in width , extending from io iloor of the main room up ono side of ho shaft to the surface of the hill its iottom filled with nshes and its sides lackonod by smoke form the lire-place ind chimney of the establishment. Around the mouth of 4ho shaft a stone , vall was found , forming by its inclosuroa kind of dooryard to the dwelling below. The wall doubtless served the double purpose of guarding against snow slides , which might otherwise fill up the rooms and bury the occupants , and against the accidental fall of an inhabitant into his own or his neighbor's dwelling , upsetting the dinner pot , and possibly breaking his nock in the operation. Considerable debris - bris was found in these ancientdwellings , nn examination of which led to the dis' covory of curios , illustrating some of the social and domestic customs of the ex tinct raco. Stone mauls and axes , implements monts used in excavating the dwellings , pottery bearing a great variety of orna mentation , bone nwls and noodles of deli cate workmanship , the motate or "family grinding stone for grain , its well worn surface indicating long use , shell and ob sidian ornaments , implements of wood , the uses of which wore undiscoverable , were amnng the trophies of the explora tion. Search was made for a water course , or spring , but no appearance of the existence of water in the neigh borhood during recent centuries was discovered. There were signs of intor-communicntion between this village and a cliff city some fifteen miles distant , and also a now discovery , which indi cates the contemporaneous inhabitancy of the two. This city , or rather cluster of villages , occupied the sites 01 a canyon which has recently been christened Wal nut canyon. It is an immense fissure in tlio earth , with nothing above the gen eral level of the country to indicate its existence to the traveler until ho stands upon the side of its almost precipitous brink. The Bides have boon Bullied by storms and torrents , leaving shallow cave-like places of great length at differ ent heights , along the bottoms of which , wherever the lodge furuished sufficient area , dwellings in groups or singly wore built. The season tvns well advanced when thn place was reached , end only little time was spout in its exploration. All the ancient methods of approach had boon long before * worn away , and access to tlio nearest of the groups of houses was a work of difficulty. The group or village which was most narrowly examined was about three- quarters of n mile in length , and consist ed of a single row of houses , the com mon roar wall being the living rock , while the sides and fronts were made of largo squared stones laid in clay. A narrow street or pathway extended along the entire front. Other nnd similar villages could bo Been along the canyon for a dis tance of five milos. Among the relics found there was a wooden spindle whirl similar to those in use by the Pu'eblons of the present time , but unlike them in the apparent manner of its manufacture. Nothing indicating thn use of metallic tools of any descrip tion was discovered. The surface of the wcod of which the whirl was formed had apparently been charred and then ground down to tne required aiza and shape by rubbing it upon sandstone. A shaft of reed similar to bamboo , a species on- tircly unknown in that region at this time , still remained in the whirl , It had been broken by the ancient workman aud neatly mended by winding about it a piece of line twinu. The ends of this twine being examined under the microscope disclosed the fact that iU fiber was very line humiin . hair. Articles of wood corncobs , and even the perfect grains of corn , walnuts , bonea of elk , antelope , and wolf , portions of wearing apparel of a fabric resembling tlio mum my doth. of Egypt , but madu from mate rial unfamiliar to the explorers , and other perishable articles were found in abundance , buried iu the piles of debris , which partially filled these deserted homes , nnd would at first thought seem to indicato'Eomowhat recant inhabitancy. On the other hand , however , the pre servative qualitiep of the ntinoaphoro of thin region are remarkable , and it is the belief of the explorers that centuries hnvo elapsed since the last of the departed races occupied those old cities and villages as houaoi. The absence of weapons of war , of works of defense , other than such ai nro constituted by the selection of almost in accessible localities , of temples or idols , of hieroglyphics or pictures , together with the durability nnd solidity of the dwellings , so different from anything to bo found of the handiwork of existing civilized races of that region , and the wide extent of thcso ruins indicating the existence of allied races covering largo portions of the present territories of Arizona , New Mexico , and Utah , as well ns northern Mexico , ara the elements of the problems involved in the origin , history , and disappearance of tlioso races problems which seem no nearer solution than whonCoronadonearly four hundred years ago , made n rnid for the purpose of conquest among those places nnd , through his priests , gnvo to the world the first meager accounts of thorn then , as now , vacant and ruined.

Poet Ollico mill Krom Hirritr'VtckJj , The post office should avail itself of all the great inventions which facilitate epistolary intercourse. There is no more reason that it should confine itself to rail- roads when it can use the telegraph , than that it should have clung to stage coaches and horses and canal-boat * when it could avail itself of the railroads and steamers. When , whore and how the telegraph should bo tiaod for postal com * inunicntion is a question of expediency and detail ; but it is not necessary to abstain from it altogether until it can bo introduced everywhere. The Doctor.KlllliiK Benjamin Alton ) , In Hnrpcr'g Mtgazlnvfor February I wns in the D.tlles of the Columbia in command of the military post in the spring of 1853 ( before there was an im migrant farm east of the Cascade moun tains ) , when several of the chiefs of the small tribes of Indians in that vicinity , Waskowa , Wishrams , and DCS Chutes , railed upon mo , with nn interpreter , to nivol.'o i \ n I to suppress n most extra ordinary custom which prevailed nmong them of killing their doctors , or medi cine men , if they did net euro their pa tients. During the previous winter three doctors in that neighborhood had been killed for that reason , and it was done by the relatives ot the deceased. I told them to return at a designated day , about a week later , bringing as auditors all those they wished to bo present , and 1 would give them in a formal council a regular talk on the subject. They ct.mo 'with many followers , bring ing again William Chimookas interpreter and the council , ono of their own seeking , was conducted , as is the wont of the red race , with gravity and deliberation. I dwelt upon the virtues of the medical profession. I told them that our surgeons and physicians properly received from the whites the utmost consideration and gratitude. It was the fate of all to die , and that to expect that always the doctor could cure , would bo to make him omni potent , to give him tlio powers of the Deity. Ho could allay the pains and comfort and assuage the ailments of the unfortunate patient , if not able in all cases to tcstoro him to health. I then dwelt upon the sin and criuio of private revenge nnd totaliation. If n murder wns committed , the punishment should bo administered , not by the kindred of the murdered man , but in the name of the law , under the authority of the whole tribe , after careful sifting and weighing of the evidence of guilt , nnd of evil and malicious intent. To permit the punish ment of the accused to bo administered without investigation by a brother or senor or fathoi of the person killed oilly leads to indiscriminate slaughter nnd the deve lopment of evil pasa'ons. If they wished to check this unfortunates custom of kill ing doctors , they must first make known this new law , nnd afterward arrest the next oltcnder , and after careful trial and assured evidence and conviction of his guilt , ho should bo sentenced to bp hung. To punish the criminal by shooting him with a rifle would not bo sufficient. To prevent , mark , and stigmati/o the crime wo did not shoot the murderer , but , putting a rope around hia neck , we had the criminal suspended from a tree or Bcaflold until ho was dead. All this was said to them slowly , in plain words , and in brief sentences , giving the inter preter a fair chance to convoy my mean ing The sequel was as follows : About three months afterward , in midsummer , the small pox made its appearance in one of the tribes , viz. , the Wishrams. Among this tribe was a celebrated medicine-man of great pretensions. Ho devoted him self to the sick. Though all the Indians on ono side of the river had been vaccin ated ( and thus cscaj ed ) , that band flnfor- tanately had not been vaccinated , and thus the pestilence raged among them and destroyed a largo portion of the tribe. As the doctor had boon always boastful of his wonderful powers as a physician , the indignant tribe resolved on his death. There were no trees on that side of the Columbia. Tying his hands and foot , they put a rope around his neck , and at taching the ether end to tjio pommel of saddle , they started the horse , and hung him in this shocking manner. That is as much as they learned by all the preaching I If ho was only hung it would bo law , it would bo all right , it would bo the white man's justice ! If a rope was put around his neck and his life thus taken , then it would make the kill ing justifiable ! Wo had inculcated a way of restraining and preventing their long- cherished habit of killing an unsuccess ful doctor , and this was the denouement ! The next time they wanted to kill another doctor , instead of a rifle , they used a rope , and then it became an orthodox and Judicial proceeding. The old doctor who was 'hung for his bad luck , and his bravo , unflinching de votion to his duties ( for there was no charge of neglect ) , may bo accounted a martyr to his profession. His descend ants may still adore his memory. And if they deal in lie raid ry would doubtless put the rope on his escutcheon , and glory in his fato. _ _ _ Violent.
