particulars of which are unknown to u.s.
The prisoner, we learn, was fully identified.
The Marshal was assisted in the arres, by
MIR. MARRIED., U. S. Deputy Marshal, and
Mr.. Boudinot, New York police Off

OREGON.

Indian Observation-Disclosures Fought.
Intelligence comes from Fort Vancouver,
7th December last, that the Indians at the
missionary station, at Walla Walla, being
swept off in large numbers by the dysentery,
suspected the Americans of poisoning them;
and attacked and massacred / of our coun-
trymen; whereupon hostilities commenced.
the writer proceeds:
"When | left Walla Walla, on the Goth
day of January, the people of the territory
of Oregon were at open war with four tribes
of Indians-the Cayuse, Walla Walla,
Shaster, and Day Indians. Four battles
had taken place between them before left
the country: the first engagement took place
at the foot of the Dalles of the Columbia,
on the Sth of January, between small par
" of troops under the command of Capt
Lee-the next took place sometime after,
between the advanced guard of the Oregon
regiment under the command of Major Lee.
He was forced to retreat, with very little
loss, and fell back upon the regiment.
Next day, the regiment marched up the
Shaster river, under the command of Col.
c. Gillian. About IL O'Clock, they were
attacked by large body of Indians, but
they were soon routed by the troops-their
villages taken aud burned. Large quanti-
ties of salmon fish, preserved for food, and
other property were also destroyed.
The Oregon Regiment having heen rein
forced, so as to number 500 men, they took
up the line Of march for the Walla Walla.
On the 18th of February, the enemy ap-
IL L.. -.
a line of battle was formed. The engage
ment commenced about ten O'Clock, and
lasted until night parted the Combatants.
Esch party camped on the ground, but The
mex. morning the enemy had LEI. the field.
A large number of Indians, Of other tribes,
were present as lockers on of the strife
1t was not known how many Indians were
killed. The troops had nine-pounder with
them, mounted on an emigrant's wagon,
drawn by six yoke of oxen: the balls gave
out during the battle, and they were com
PEELED to shoot away the lock-chains belong
ing to the baggage-wagons.
Next day, they marched TO the Utilla riy-
or. and thence to DIR. Whitnan's Mission,
the scene of the massacre. All the proper
~ about the place had been destroyed by the
Indians, and the house burnt. Here, too,
were the heads of the Doctor and Of his
amiable wife lying in the yard, and the
bones of the other sufferers scattered about
on the ground. Al this point left the
troops, and took the Blue Mountain route,
the snow from five to three feet deep, for
about thirty miles, until we fell in the third
division of Oregon.

book and threw it at the jurors, hitting one
of them in the face. Another boy of IL
was sent to the penitentiary for three years,
for horse stealing. At the same time these
boys were receiving their sentences, two
other boys, one Is, the other l6 years of age,
were under examination before the Mayor,
on a charge of having committed nine bur-
glaries the previous night.
A few days since, Captain Henrik, being
in the neighborhood of Bailey's, near Balti-
more, observed dog Juggling at something
in the water. Prompted by curiosity, he got
a boat and went to the spot, where he found
small boy, John w. Rankin, stuck fast in
the mud, and dead to all appearance. He
was got out, but not without great effort,
the Captain himself having been thrown
oAerboard in the attempt. The boy was
brought to Mr.. Bailey's, where, after work
of about three hours, he was restored to
life.
Near Centrevile, Md, on the Esd ult, as
a negro boy belonging to Mr.. Stewart EN-
DRY was leading young hores to water, he
imprudently wrapped the end of the halter
around his wrist, when the horse, becoming
alarmed, started off at full speed, dragging
the boy over an eighty acre field and event
ually jumping over fence, by which the
halter was broken and the poor boy, bruis-
ed in shocking manner, released from his
dreadful position.

Cotton Manufactures.

If the general revolution in Europe, re-
suits as it must, in effecting an increase of
the wages and reccmpense of operatives
there, il will be found after all, that cotton
can be manufactured in our own country,
which the South has SO much despised hth-
erto as a market, at as low prices as in Eu-
rope. As TO the immediate effect of revo-
luton, the Phila North American, very tru-
ly says:
"There is no fact more certain than that
a sudden revolution, leading to protracted
civil war or general c6nvulson in England,
would prove immediate ruin to the whole
contemplating interest of the South; and
never would calamity fall upon men which
was more clearly and justly the fruit of their
own infatuaton. All the world of man
kind, out of America, understand the adj
vantages of effecting such an equitable and
natural division of labor, agricultural and
manufacturing, in any country, as secures
the greatest safety and Independence to the
two classes, and protects both from the dan
ger of all foreign vicissitudes. Our South
ern friends, have preferred the system which
would compel all Americans to be farmers
and planters, and which aims 10 reduce far
mers and planters To dependence on casual
titles beyond their regulation or reach: they
have labored, especially, to prevent their
own couutrymen building them up mar
ket for their co,ton-their great ambition
being to have one market, instead of two
The consequence is, that, whereas, by an
opposite system, they might have had the
Union-even their own States covered with
mills consuming at least one-half their great
stanle. when the other half would have been
sought with avidiU by foreigners, they have
permitted only few 10 come into preca-
rious existence, capable of consuming only
one-sixth of the crop, while the remaining
five-sixths must find a foreign market, or re-
main dead loss on their hands.
The wisdom of this unnatural policy is
now about to he severely tested. II has, in
a long season ofpeace, forced the cultivation
OF cotton to oyer-prodnctlon, So ss to bring
down the price TO about one-tourih what il
was twenty-five years ago. And, now when
il Is az the lowest, there Is every prospect Of
its becoming stlli lower. Revolutions all
over the COMMENSURATE siagnant-mills
stopped: that is but a poor state of
things for the cotton-planter: and the per
ilous condition of England makes his
state still worse. What Is he to do, is he

REPUBLICANIsM.

Undoubtedly, il is the influence Of our ex-
ample ms Republic, which is now topping
down the thrones Of Europe Power is de-
parting from the scep,re TO the ballot box;
and the millions must and will govern. IL
is demonstrated thata government may rest
securely upon the viii and affections of
whole nation; il is also demonstrated that il
can rest securely upon nothing else. Chains
aud dungeons and bayonets have been the
dolences of tyranny; hut what security are
these in ils {. rul,uous tumbngs of a rev.
olution, stirring the ocean mass to its pro-
foundest deep' Louis Philippe. who sat,
but IL other day in the palace of the Tut
lerlcs, IN faneied security, surrounded by
the chivalry OF France, by one sudden pop
ular wave, was dashed, like a sea weed in a
storm, upon the coast of England, crown
less, powerless, a beggar!
For long time after the Declaration of
our Independence, the Monarchists of the
Old World looked on with incredulity, and
gave expressions 10 their feeling, in sneers OF
ridieule ana contempt They believed that
the experiment would prove an utter abor-
ton, that the system would explode, and
that anarchy and misery would he the con-
sequences. And this they also hoped, for
with such results, republicanism would be-
come odious throughout the civilized world,
while monarchy and despotism would be-
come the ruling principles in forms of gov
ernment. Hence they looked on with apx-
iety, watched our progress step by step, pre-
dic,ed coming calamities, fdncied with eve
ry Sigh, difficulty, that the Union would bc
dissolved. Nay, several Of them lahored
under such apprehensions, tina, American
Journals were studiously excluded from
their dominians, aud the discussion of re-
puhlicanisn, by their own presses, was deem
ed serious offence. Nevertheless the
young giant of the Western World, pro-
crossed rapidly, and The story of her resonr-
ees, her happiness and her might, which
was nj first regarded as little better than a
romance, became accredited by the masses,
and thousands and tens ofthousands of them
directed their footsteps TO the new land OF
promise. Still taerc were many who dishe-
lieved. The new Republic was derided aud
laughed at, aud its downfall was speedily
predicted. Even now, few political big
OTIS may be found who sheer at the idea that
man is capable of self-governmeni, and who
denounee republicauism with no little bitter
ness.

DIR. JAYNE,s FAMILY MEDICINES.

Ii is our principle in the management Of this pa
per to notice anything which we find out, from
personal investigation, TO be Of utility to the public.
Some of DIR. Jayne's medicines we have used in
our family for many years. For instance s. The
EXpectorant. 1.-The Carminaiive, and 50 YER
mifnge, /" which we know 70 be good for the COM
plants they profess to cure. We were on Lake
Ontario, the past summer, when several of our
travelling companions, from having, in Western
New York, drank, for many days, the limestone
water of that region. were badly attacked with
violent Diarrhea and Dysentery. Mr.. b. had
provided himself, previous to leaving home,
with 'sThe Carminative Of Dr. jayne and IN
all cases Gifts use, among five gentlemen, It was
successful in effeetlng speedy cure. t15osA
The Expectorani we have known used among
our intimate friends with equal success; and we
feel that we shall do good act to families tesPe-
cially those situated so they cannot have access
to immediate medical skill, } to advise them 10
keep on hand both the Expectorant and Carmin-
alive. The Expectorant Is believed BY good ply
sicians, to be the best recipe for Pulmonary Con-
sumpiive complaints, that has ever yet been com
pounded. The reason Is DIR. Jayne Is NOT
quack, but regular, scientific, and able medical
practitioner himself. His medicines are USED oy
