RECRUITS A party of army recruits arriv- ed from California on Saturday last-anothsr mere handful not sufficient to fill all the Vaean- cies occasioned by the discharge of others since the troops here were last reinforced. But small though the nurdber be we are still pleased to see them come, on the principle that "a half loafis better than no bread" :" and besides, if each soldier kill even one Indian during his stay of three years there will be some hundred and fifty of ye greasy pillagers who will have furnished our buzzards little diet ere the dawn of 1873.
 DlsoRDERLY For some six months our town has been free from disturbances, and in most other respects the general condition of sos ciety might, during that time, have done hon or to a town of a like population even in the best regulated State ofthe Union. During the past week however some Of disorders advo- cates have been doing their utmost to break up this tranquility and to establish roWdyism upon its ruins. During the entire night they indulge in the innocent amussmsnts of fig ht- ing and shooting throughout ths whole town. and like other noxiouS animals peculiar to this region retire to their dens at the approach of day. Now it appears to us that some effort should be made to capture couple of these rioters and hand them over to the tender mer- cles ofJustice Tunge. His mode of disposing of such individuals would doubtless have the effect of restoring and maintaining order.

JOHN PHGNIx.-A friend recently
related to us the following anecdotc of
Phoenix, which has never been published
When jefferson Davis was Secretary
! of War, he issued circulars to all the
army officers, asking of them specifca-
tions for proposed new uniform. Phc-
nix, who was an excellent craftsman, set
to work and produced design. He
made no great changes in the uniform,
but he proposed revoIutioLizing the en-
tire system of modern tactics by means
of en- iron hook. This hook was to be at
tached to the seat of every soldiers pants.
Ii applied to every arm of the service,
cavalry, infantry and artillery. He IL
lustrated its use by series OF we'll exc
cuted designs. He quoted high medical
authority proving its advantages in a
sanguinary point of view. The heavy
knapsack, he argued. induced STOPPING
position, and very heavy contraction Of
the chest. But hung on tho hook ty a
strap connecting with the shoulder, it
would brace the body back and expand
the chest. The cavalry thus were to be
made more permanent in their seats,
hooked to ring in the saddle. All the
commissioned officers were to carry
light teu-foot pole, with ring attached
to the end. This is to be used during
an engagement in drawing the stragglers
back into the ranks. He illustrated
terrific battle, the General and Colonels
being thus occupied, running about and
hauling stragglers back to the ranks.
In many unheard of ways did he ex-
pariate on the value and efficiency of this
hook. Jefferson Davis was cnragcd.
His dignity was wounded, and the SER
vice insulted. He instantly made out
an order directing Phoenix to be court
martialed for contempt.
Marcy was made aware of Ph9nix's s
transaction, as we'll as the cloud hanging
over him. He looked over the plates.
He saw regiment, their backs toward
him, drawn up in line, with knapsacks,
blankets, hams, and all manner of camp
equipage, pending from each soldier on
the hook.
Marcy broke down. Said he to Davis
+" It's no use to court-martial this man.
The matter will be made public, and the
laugh will settle entirely on US, and be-
sides, man who has the inventive |
genius here displayed, as we'll as this
faculty of design: lily directed though it
be, is too valuable to the service to be
trampled with" Jno. Phoenix was not
brought to grief, and Davis anger was at |
length sufficiently modified for him to |
enjoy the joke. 1t does not appear,
however, that they adopted Phanix's |
plan Oakland Transcript.

LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS.

DISTINGUISHED VISITORS. city
was honorel on last Monday by visit
from Hon. VIM H. Seward and party
They arrived at Il ~, and became
the guests of the city. Our citizens,
without respect to party, hastened to
greet and extend to them the hand of
welcome. At two o'clock they sat down,
with many friends, TO a sumptuous re-
past, gotten up by mine host OF the Ex-
change Restaurant, which they discussed
with much good humor At 3 o'clock
the party quietly left as it came. All
expressed themselves as highly pleased
in having entertained those so distin-
guished, and for the kindly interest man
itested in our prosperity Mr.. Seward,
though exhibiting evidences of age and
hard usage, still retains his mental fac
ulties fresh and vigorous as in youth,
subduei somewhat by time, but fully
maturcd by experience and much severe
reflection, aud impresses you at once as
one of eavth's /" mighties" Those ugly
sears of the assassin's knife attest the
truth of the sentiment 20 that man is i'm
mortal until his work is DONE" and yet
the unmistakable marks of time tell us
that he has already passed the last
quarter-pole in the race of life, and that
the great ',levelcr" has begun to feel the
ground around him. But let his days
be few or more, he has made for himself
name and fame more imperishable than
monuments of stone or iron, and left an
impress upon the world as immortal as
the soul itself

late Conference in this city to acc, mplish
very small thing, and two of his local
Elders Marcus Lowell and j. NIitchel),
did join in with him in that lie to assist
him in accomplishing his object (Rcv 2,
y, which shows the dangerous influence
that their home made apostleship holds
over its Elders and members.
Look at their system of secret Courts
already established in this lard, before
which their Elders will testify falsely
members when being tried are not allow
ed to speak "a word in their own defense,
and some have been condemned without
ever being informed that the Court was
in session that was trying them, which
favoIs the ancient anqutsttion too much to
suit me.
And now let me say to all Re-organ-
lied Latter Day Saints, honestly come out,
and with me either admit that Joseph
Smith was a false prophet when he gave
that revelation on polygamy, and that his
son Joseph is now occupying false posi-
tion or, like Brigham Young, j. j.
Strong, William Smith (the old prophets
brother), and other leaders of Mormon
factions, honestly confess that polygamy
is a cardinal point in your faith, and no
longer seek to deceive the unwary bJ
your hypocritical pretensions.
And if any Re-organized Latter Day
Saint. wishes to negative any of the above
statements, let him meet me before the
Sacramento public within the next thirty
days, and will prove them true, and a
good deal more that he does not wish the
public to know just yet and it the Re-
organized Saints do not accept this chal-.

4 whining, peevish man, who was al
ways trying to get on the sick list, though
apparently as healthy as any man in the
army, went to the chaplain one day in
his doleful style, and requested that a
letter be written to his wife telling her
of his condition
Tell her, chaplain" said the soldier.
"that l am too sick to write myself, and
have got you. to do it for me. Tell her
that I should die to-day, but for the
desire have to wait and see her once
more before I die" The chaplain wrote
as directed, and after a few days he
called the would be-sick soldier to his
tent, and handed him this answer to his
moulnful letter: "Rev. -: Dear
Sir Tell John not to wait for me, as
have already commenced house keeping
with another mar" ,"

SpoRrs AT ScIo-The following ac-
count of affairs at Scio is taken from the
Salem Tntonist Of the 5th. Said journal
was informed by the Lord Mayor of the
city IN the Forks of the Santiam, that
great excitement had existed in that
community few days previous, caused
by case of petit larceny Of the most
outrageous character. The particulars
in the case were recited thusly: 4 man
who was carrying half barrel of vinegar
through the principal business street, was
stopped and detained in conversation by
one Of the city officials until the load be-
came so weghty that he tired of it, set it
down, and walked into store near by to
rest and have the talk out. While the
owner was in the store "restine," some
one stole the barrel and rolled it away !;
some one else stole it from the first thief,
and the barrel kept changing hands until
it was finally slowed away under the true
owners bed without his knowledge
Sometime after, when his patience had
become entirely exhausted: search
warrant was issued, and the missing vim
egar barrel found, much to his astonish-
ment. alt is needless to say that the
community where such terrible state, of
things exist is strongly Democratic,
where everything goes y \ man living
in the Forks was lately found, at unusual
hours, in his neighbor's kitchen, and cx-
planned his position by statement that
he was searching for lost brindle COW !,
The appreciasive wits of Scio had an cx-
teusiye tin COW bell made and took it
over to present him, with due ceremony,
but report has it the man was too indig
nant to receive it-got mad. in fact"
When the Mayor left everything was
quiet at the ''Gem of the Forks

small sums, changed hands. Neither
animal was in good condition, "Nellie"
