Death of Another Tec(im<*e3i
Killer.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune ]
Toledo, O., March 20.
Peter Navarre, the most distin-
guished ot'the scouts who served on
the American side duriiit! the war
ot 1S12, in the operations of the dif-
ferent armies of the Northwest,
died here to-day, at the. age of eigh-
ty-nine. He, his four brothers, tlie
Shawnee Chief Logan and Maj.
Win. Oliver were the scoutiug party
upon which the different armies de-
pended Ht all times. They succeed-
ed in escaping at Hull's surrender,
made their way to Hartison's head-
quarters, and returning, succeeded
in making their way into the be
leaguered Fort Wayne with intelli-
gence which prevented that strong
hold from falling into the hands of
Tecumseh. Peter Navarre was pros
ent at the massacre of River Raisin,
a disaster he had vainly attempted
to prevent by his urgent entreaties
to Gen. Winchester. After seeing
that the day was lost, and he and
his brothers escaped by concealing
themselves under the banks of the
river. During the siege of Fort
Meigs he and one brother succeeded
iu passing the lines of the British
and Indians after five futile attempt
had been made to send dispatches
for assistance. He participated in
the battle ot the Thames, iu Col.R.
M. Johnson's command, aud was
oue ot the claimants to the honor
ot killing Tecumseh. If he did not
kill him, he at least hurried him,
being one of those sent by Gen.
Hartison to identify and hurry Te-
cumseh's body. Go highly was Na
varre's value to the Americans es
teemed by the British that Gen.
Proctor issued a formal order from
Maiden, offering a reward of $1,000
for his scalp. After the war closed
Navarre returned to a little piece
of ground at the mouth of the bay,
which he became possessed of, and
has since resided there, eking out
a scanty living from it, since be
had all of the pioneer aversions to
regular argriculture, and as a
farmer was not a conspicuous sue
cess.
On the day of Senator Sumner's
funeral services at the Capitol, the
Senate being the center of attrac-
tion, the doorkeepers of the gal-
leries were, of course, besieged with
applicants for admission, especially
those guarding the entrance to the
portion set aside for Senators' fami-
lies and their friends. As tbe ser-
vices were about to commence a
welldressed lady presented herself
at the last mentioned entrance, and
was refused admission by the door-
keeper, who stated that she must
have a note from a Senator. She
had procured 0110 some days previ-
ous for the purpose of entering this
portion of the gallery, but had nev
er used it, and remembering that it
was still in her pocket, handed it t<
the doorkeeper, who read, "Please
give this lady a seat. Charles Sum-
ner." She was admitted.
In Smyrna, Asia, tlse weather was un-
usually severe the latter part of last
month. Snow fell to the depth of nearly
a foot, a spectacle that, has not been wit-
nessed there within twenty-eight years.
It is said to have formed an exquisitely
beautiful landscape scoae, when the
outline trees, with their golden fruit,
weie covered with a layer of snow ; and
the young generation did not kuow what
to make of it at nil. Even the animals
r%nd wild fowl wore astonished, and, frigh-
tened by the usual cold and suow storms,
tied from their forest aud meadow retreats,
into the oity, where hundreds of part-
ridges and snipes were killed by impro-
vised sportsmen. As few of the hoiMes-io
Smyrna are furnished with stoves or
grates, the inhabitants spent a very un-
comfortable time duiing the cold spell.
California is nothing if not marvelous.
Some of its papers are discussing the mer-
its of a new churn, just invented aud
puteuted by oue Budd Smith, of that State
which extracts seven aud three-quarters
pounds of butter from eight pounds of
milk. Tho morning Call, of Sau Fiancis-
co, solemnly avers its incredulity as to the
exact truthfulness of this claim, but ad
uiits thai the action of the churn is some
thing truly wonderful. The churn is de
scribed as cylindrical, and in three pieces
somewhat like unto a telescope. The Call
is confident of an immediate fall in the
price of butter, and in the hope of some
such result here we make haste to extend
the knowledge of the fabulous churn. Iu
studying present prices, we feel what
blessing it would be to look at them
through the big end of the "'telescope."

A balky Horse.
There are two ways of mauaging
a balky horse. My companion knew
oue of them, and I the other. His
method is to sit quietly in the wa-
gon, and at short intervals throw a
small pebble at the horse. The
theory is that these repeated sud-
den annoyances will operate on a
horse's mind, and he will try to es-
cape them by going on. The spec-
tators supplied my friend with
stones, and he perted the horse
with measured gentleness. Probab-
ry the horse understood the method,
for lie did not notice the attack at
all. My plan was to speak gently to
the horse, requesting him to go, and
theu to follow the refusal dy' one
sudden, sharp cut of the lash; to
wait a moment, and then repeat the
operation. The dread of the coming
lash after the gentle word will startle
any horse. I tried this, aud with a
certain success. The horse backed
us into a ditch, .and would probably
have backed himself into the wagon
if I had continued. When the animal
was at lenght ready to go, Davie
took him by the bridle, ran by his
side, coaxed him into a gallop, and
then, leaping in dehind, lashed him
into a run which had little respite
for ten miles, up hill or down. Re-
monstrance on behalf of the horse
was in vain, and it was only on the
return home that this specimen
Cape Breton diver began to reflect
iow he could erase the welts from
the horse's back before his father
saw thein.—(C.D. Warner, in April
