AZ If the statements we see IN many of the
papers, and the names of many highly resPecta
bic physicians and citizens Of high standing at
tached TO certificates Of the good effects of q
medicine, can be relied on, it seems to us the
height Of Incredibly to doubt for a moment the
intrinsic rirtue Of the "MEXICAN MUSTANG
LINIMENT." The fact is admitted by all, that
it is the best external remedy ever discovered by
the medical faculty; and that it is a certain cure
for all kinds Of Cutaneous diseases, both on man
and beast. We cordially recommend it to any
of our readers who are troubled with any Of the
diseases for which il is recommended. D5See

Mile House, in Durkee, Wis, was enter.
ed on the night of the 7lh uIt., and robbed

desk of 500 in specie. While thus en-
gagged, Mrs. Smith crawled 10 the table,
upon which was loaded pistol, and this
she handed to her husband. He took sure
aim at one of the rutlians, discharged il,
and he fell. His companions gathered
up the wounded man and FASTENED away.

FLouR.-The Buffalo Republic doubts
the necessity Of the fears about the scaTcI,
~ of flour at present in this country and
states that il is in possession of inlorma-
ton which fully warrants the expectation
that the following quantities will arrive
at that port this season. From Lake
Michigan, $500 barrels; from Detroit
1913 900 barrels; from Toledo, 100000
barrels from Cleveland, 80, 900 barrels
making total of 5000 barrels of flour
to come forward before harvest, "exclu'
sive of Canada" The Republic adds
that it has no means of estimating the a.
mount that will be received from Canada,
but learns from gentlemen whose means
of information are extensive, that II will
not be less than quarter of a million
of barrels, and may be four times that a,
mount.

Ernnl New Mexico.

The mails from the West, says the ST.
Louis Republican Of April 28th, brought
us files of the Santa Fe Gazette to the
oath of March. From these papers we
make The following extract:
! We have been permitted by General
Garland. to see the report of Captain Ew-
ell in relation 10 the attack OF the Indians
upon his grazing camp on the night OF the
22d uIt.. about twenty-five miles from
Albuquerque. The camp consisted OF SIX
DRAGONS, four of whom were III me tent
a, the time of the attack, and the other
two were lille distance of, IN the noun
tans. burning charcoal. In The nigh''
is not mentioned at what hour, the lndi-
ans came 10 the camp, about hlIeeh III
number, and before The soldiers were
aware Of their presence, pulled down lhe
tent unon them, and at the same time
shooting arrows into il. The soldiers sal
lied out as quickly as possible, and made
battle with the Indians, and succeeded III
driving them away. All the soldiers were
wounded aud are now in the hospital a!
Albuquerqe. The Indians told the MeAi-
cans that they only came TO Kill The sol
diers, and did not want the animals, ou'
they succeeded IN neither. This was one
of the most merilorious actions that has
ever occurred in Nrw Mexico, and the
soldiers made heroes of themselves. Their
names are RinggoId lin CHARGE C"Iligam'
Weaver and Young, all of whom were
wounded IN several places. CuIlIgam was
wounded early in the action, and started
off TO carry information 10 Las Lunas,
Rnggold saying to him that he thought
he could hold his position. A more gal
liant defence than tins has not been made
under the walls of Sebastopol; and 1t
would be right for the Government to
give these soldiers some testimonial Tor
their good conduct. Lieut. Moore, with
party of troops, was at the place at 7 O.
clock the next morning, and continued IN
pursuit. The same day, Major Carlton,
with detachment of dragons and some
mounted volunteers, left Albuquerque in pur
suit of the Indians, but have returned
without being able to overtake them.

OBJECT OF EMBALMlNa IN EGYPT.-A French

pronounced on occasion Of the opening of an
Egyptian mummy in the amphitheater of the

extent Of territory Of about 1850 square leagues,
according to D'Anyille, there would be a popu.

would present $50 200 deaths per annum. These
corpses must be gotten rid of either by burning
or by interment; if the latter, they must be
buried around the inhabited spots, or in those
which were inundated by the Nile. and then the
decomposition of those bodies would have been
