tiyeI Mt Boston, June 18th, 10th, 18th, 18th

tins season, and with the low rates OF

many to make their summer pleasure trip

+ Although the eruption is not
so violent now the volcano is fearful sight
to behold. The rivers Of lava still flow, and
the smoke from the crater ascends in awful
majesty. During this volcanic uPheaval it
has been very sIciy here. A peculiar sort of
low maiarious fever, which has grown out Of
the foul, condensed vapors Of the volcano,
has prevailed to an alarming extent, and at
one time it was feared ii would depopulate
the island. But fortunately, a sea-captain
calling here forsupplies} distributed Planta-
ton Bittefs to the suffering, and quick and
thorough cures were the result. The news
spread like wiid-lire. Messrs. Ching Takin
& Co., Commission Merchants, had these Bit
ters for sale In a short time their Office was
besieged and their supply exhausted. Asteam-
er was dispatched TO San Francisco by order
of the Hospital Department, and a new and
enormous supply obtained as soon as posi-
bic. From that moment the scourged was
stayed Not another fatal case occurred and
the epidemic has now entirely disappeared.
Is this wonderful remedy known
in your city? / hope so, fOrit is sure cure for
all feYers and miasmatic sicknes. You may
tell your friends so for me.

a letter from General Sherman, Sec
retary of War, of the 10Th ult, deliv-

issued by the Secretary on the 11th

been based upon information con

who is known to have perverted his
position for purposes of fraud. and
whose character is such that reason

place in his honesty In dealing with
the Government. Under such cir
cumstances the Secretary may very
properly decline to expose the inter
ests of the Government. as also that
of claimants, to the danger of becom-
ing party to dishonest schemes and
devices, and when the provision. sus-
tanned as the pension and bounty act,
designed for the protection of claim
ants against the cupidity and oppres-
sion OF their agents, have been vio-

if possible, to suffer the penalty i'm
posed by law for their past misdeeds.

THE DANVILLE RALROAD.-The
City Council took no action last night
In relation to the Danviile road. 1t
is understood, however, that the
Council will make an appropriation OF
one hundred thousand dollars to aid
Ia It's construction as soon as certain
delicate matters relating to its man
agement can be satisfactorily arranged.
That they will be thus arranged, there
is little, if any, doubt. and that, tcO,
at an early day. Both the Danville
and Greene County road will receive
the necessary aid from the city, aud
both enterprises will soon move for
ward with every prospect of the best
results.-T III. E!rprcss.
1t seems that some Of the citizens Of
Terre Haute oppose the subscriptions
on the ground that the managers Of
the road are making an unfavorable
discrimination against Terre Haute in
favor of Evansville. While we do
not think there is any justice in the
charge, it ought to convince some of
our fault finders, " ho have insisted that
the road was made to subscrve
the purposes Of prominent men in
Terre Raute as against the interest OF
our business men, that there is no
Justice 10 tAeir insinuations or charges
We think the truth is, the management
has looked after the welfare Of the
road committed to their care in pref
erence to any local interest.
