IHDIAK FAHATICISH. Aa showing the character of tuo eavag* Apiicho, tho romarkablo ovonlfl following the •ppooranco at Fort Apacbo, last Bummer, o( n big mediciua-man now posaossos a peculiar Interest. Ills namo was Knock-o-tl-klinny. Presenting himself loGen. Carr, ho explain, od that ho camo thero nt tho request of hla frionds; that ho was a doctor and could bring tho dead to lifa j that they caf-J out of tho grouud by degrees; that somo chiefs irero already out as far ui their knees, and would soon bo aliro again, and that they had told him thoy would como when tho com wasripo. "How do you commnnicato with your, dead friends ?" Oon Carr asked. "Thoy tnko tho shape of a bear, and I eoa them and talk with them at night. I laava food for them in tho empty lodges. They do uol want to como till tha corn iaripoand thoro la plenty tocat for all of ns." Ho then said ho intended to hold dances near tho post nud asked that tho Indian soldiers (tho scouts) might bo present. Oon. Carr told him tbey might go provided Uicro was lo bo nq, whisky OQ UIO ground. Tho medicineman withdraw and tho next night tlio first of his dances was held. For tho first fow nights tho Indians did not tnko a great deal of interest in tho medicine-man's Incnntations, but finally nearly all camo under tho spell, ana'ths scenes then nightly cuactcd at tho dan'co wero of ibo most fana- tical order. In tho course, of a fow weeks Iho savages sgemed to grow tired of the jorcmouics and becamo impatient for results, l'hey callca OQ tho wild-oyed medicineman lo make good his word and bring tho dead to life. Tho corn was iipo, and tho cars wero bursting oil tho stalk. Whoro woro ilioi'r friends? Tha medicine-man bavins boon cornered, did just what many a., white inau, ftiiuiUriy -'placed,' ban dono. Ho took u now tack. Tho dead Would not return, he eaiJ, so long as tho pale faco remained. Tho whites must go. Imbued with this religious conviction, tho war spirit vroa mmscd. At this juncture it so happened tlmt n small detachment of troops was or- dered away from tho fort. Tho medicine, man pointed to tha big comet and said it was good medicine. Tho rest of the whiten would soon follow. Gen. Carr, alarmed a 1 tho attitude of tho mirages, sent for icin forccmcnls. In tho meantime thoincdi< ciiicmnn wont to Cibicii, forty-live miles tc tho Houthwcst, nnd contiuued hiu incantn. tions. A dotachmont of troops, occompani- " ed by a number of Indian soldiers C BC0 ^)i was sent out to watch tho redskins. The scouts, .who wero. Apaehew, betrayed tin comniand treacherously, and the whole budy narrowly escaped maBb-(ioro. As it wan, tho olliccr in command was killea. Gen. Curt;, hearing of tho disloyalty of tbo Indian sol. diers. made a forced march to tho sceuo of tho troubles, and after a short cugagomcu - succeeded in capturing thu mudiuiuu-iuutj ivcrtiug tho impending massacre and holding tho now thoroughly wnriibo savages iu sub. j^Liau. After his. ftrrcst, Knock-G-ti-hl; told tho scouts whom ha jiad beguiled thai tho soldiers coultl aot'destroy him .""If they killed him or any of his followers, bo they would return to lifa dn tho third day, even though their enemies cut their hodici into picccB. This troublcpomo son of the forcEt, having wcll-uigu precipitated a big Indian war, camo to a violent death a fow days later st tho hands of a soldier. ' As h failed to put in anappearanco at tbo end oj three daje, or three weeks, tho rods con- cluded ho was nfraud, and when other modi, cipc-men undertook to carry, on tho resur. •ctlon ceremonies it was •found that Iho tribe had lost interest iu the matter.

Thoro can haraV : ~ ^ a doubt that many If lot most, of tho ancient nbboys, cathedrals, ind castles had similar clocks, bnt that, liko o celebrated cloak of Richard ^Vallingford St. Albans, they havo been destroyed; snd I think it very probable that much in. formation might bo gained on tho subject If Uo fabric rolls of ths cathedrals wuro exam- aed wilh that ob)'sot.

These clocks, ihough not absoluto fixtures, conld not con- reniently bo moved or carried about.

Aa showing the character of tuo eavag*Apiicho, tho romarkablo ovonlfl following the•ppooranco at Fort Apacbo, last Bummer, o(n big mediciua-man now posaossos a peculiarInterest. Ills namo was Knock-o-tl-klinny.Presenting himself lo Gen. Carr, ho explain,od that ho camo thero nt tho request of hlafrionds; that ho was a doctor and couldbring tho dead to lifa j that they caf-J out oftho grouud by degrees; that somo chiefsirero already out as far ui their knees, andwould soon bo aliro again, and that they hadtold him thoy would como when tho comwasripo.

"How do you commnnicato with your,dead friends ?" Oon Carr asked.

"Thoy tnko tho shape of a bear, and I eoathem and talk with them at night. I laavafood for them in tho empty lodges. Theydo uol want to como till tha corn ia ripo andthoro la plenty to cat for all of ns."

Ho then said ho intended to hold dancesnear tho post nud asked that tho Indiansoldiers (tho scouts) might bo present.Oon. Carr told him tbey might go providedUicro was lo bo nq, whisky OQ UIO ground.Tho medicineman withdraw and tho nextnight tlio first of his dances was held. Fortho first fow nights tho Indians did not tnkoa great deal of interest in tho medicine-man'sIncnntations, but finally nearly all camounder tho spell, ana'ths scenes then nightlycuactcd at tho dan'co wero of ibo most fana-tical order. In tho course, of a fow weeksIho savages sgemed to grow tired of thejorcmouics and becamo impatient for results,l'hey callca OQ tho wild-oyed medicinemanlo make good his word and bring tho deadto life. Tho corn was iipo, and tho carswero bursting oil tho stalk. Whoro woroilioi'r friends? Tha medicine-man bavinsboon cornered, did just what many a., whiteinau, ftiiuiUriy -'placed,' ban dono. Ho tooku now tack. Tho dead Would not return, heeaiJ, so long as tho pale faco remained.Tho whites must go. Imbued with thisreligious conviction, tho war spirit vroammscd. At this juncture it so happenedtlmt n small detachment of troops was or-dered away from tho fort. Tho medicine,man pointed to tha big comet and said itwas good medicine. Tho rest of the whitenwould soon follow. Gen. Carr, alarmed a1

tho attitude of tho mirages, sent for icinforccmcnls. In tho meantime tho incdi<ciiicmnn wont to Cibicii, forty-live miles tctho Houthwcst, nnd contiuued hiu incantn.tions. A dotachmont of troops, occompani-

" ed by a number of Indian soldiers CBC0^)iwas sent out to watch tho redskins. Thescouts, .who wero. Apaehew, betrayed tincomniand treacherously, and the whole budynarrowly escaped maBb-(ioro. As it wan, thoolliccr in command was killea. Gen. Curt;,hearing of tho disloyalty of tbo Indian sol.diers. made a forced march to tho sceuo oftho troubles, and after a short cugagomcu

- succeeded in capturing thu mudiuiuu-iuutjivcrtiug tho impending massacre and holdingtho now thoroughly wnriibo savages iu sub.j^Liau.

Thoro can haraV : ~ a doubt that many Iflot most, of tho ancient nbboys, cathedrals,ind castles had similar clocks, bnt that, liko
