Ess- The Washington States says OF the
s., 900 900: A combination of men, in high
and low positions, composed of bankers and,
it is said Senators, and their abetters, are
getting. or have already got, the control OF
this immense claim, and viii attempt to force
it through Congress at the next session. These
spectators, we understand, have had their
agents at work in Oregon buying up the diff
ferent claims against the Government, based
on the most ertrardga1a rates, for few cents
on a dollar. The facts before us, we think,
will enable us to show up this whole matter
in its true colors, and expose one of the great
est attempts to deplete Uncle Sans treasury
which has ever before been made.

THE maxims of the wisest men are to pre-
serve the body in perfect health, not to wait
for the development of disease. "Be wise in
times" check and guard against the first ap-
proach. Keep the stomach and blood healthy
and pure, and the plaques of a poisoned at
mosphcre fall harmless. The only remedy
that will thoroughly purify the blood, and at
the same time strengthen aud invigorate the
system, is MCLEAN's STRENGTHENING CORDIAL
AND BLOOD PURIFIER. Try it, and you will
be convinced. See advertisement.

TLRRIBLE SUFFERING FROM THRsT.-A long
letter appears in Texas paper concerning
the passage of McCullough's emigrant train
across the staked plain to California. The
great American desert, through which the
train passed. is a barren waste, and poorly
supplied with water. Out of l 600 head of
cattle; $50 died for lack of water, and for
period of seventy-siX hours, were without
drop to slake their thirst. The men also sui
frred terribly, aud many shot down famish-
ing bullocks on the road, stuck them, pulled
off their boots or shoes, caught the thick hot
blood, aud drank it freely. BY so doing they
saved their lives

BITES AND SrINGs OF INsECTs.-As remedy
against the bites and stings of insects, and of
all poisonous reptiles. the only reliable arti-
Gle yet invented is DIR. BRACES ARCTIC LINZ
MENT. Such are its penetrating and disinfect-
ing properties, that, no matter how virulent
may be the poison from the bite or sting, this
Liniment at once reaches the seat of venom,
however deep, and neutralizes and extracts
it. With Bragg's Arctic Liniment at hand
the bite of rattesnake is as harmless as that
of gnat. 1t also Overcomcs the virus from
the bite of a mad dog. This admirable Lini-
mcnt is also infallible in curing all those dis
eases OF men and animals where a Liniment
is the proper remedy, and is not equaled by
any such article ever invented. 1t is likewise
infallible in destroying the screw-wOrm, TO
which cattle are peculiarly liable in southern
latitudes.

'KEEP YOUR POWDER DRY."-The New
buryport (Mass.) Herald says;-It is rather a
remarkable circumstance that the powder
which was used in Sandwich in firing of the
cannon to celebrate the connection by n cable
of England to the United States. is the same
which was purchased in the war Of 1872 to
fight our then English enemy. 1t has been
kept in tight cask in the old magazine, sit
uated in the old cemetery since that time.

EG- a German importing house at New
York lately received AN invoice of real Ha-
vana cigars, which were appraised ut the
custom house at three dollars per thousand.
The importers thought this too high. and I'M
der their oath the cigars were admitted at one
dollar and half Their evidence was that
not a particle of tobacco entered into the
composition of said cigars, but that they were
wholly composed of oak aud other leaves,
soaked in strong tobacco ley.
