THE DULUTH OUTRAGE.
Protest of Another Republican GOV.
erDOr against the Usurpai ions aud
OutraSes of the War DeparSnent.

erDOr against the Csurpaf aONs aud
OutraSes of the War Depart ment.
Another Republican Governor has been
compelled to utter protest against the
military usurpations of the Administration.
In April, 1871, the new city of Duluth, in
Minnesota, began the construction of a
canal intended TO turn tie course of the St.
Louis river, and make for it a new mouth
at Duluth. AT that time the river dis
charged its waters into Lake Superior at
Superior City, which il tie principal port
of Wisconsin on the lake, and had an in-
ner natural harbor seven miles in length,
accessible to all klu,s of lake craft, there
being depth of nine feet Mt the mouth If
the river at the lowest stage Of water.
The people Of Superior City were naturally
indignant at what they deemed an attempt
to steal their harbor, and by direction Of
the Legislature of Wisconsin legal proceed
ings were instituted which led TO q iniunct-
ton being issued by Justice Miller restrain
ing the aggression. This writ was never
served by the Marshal Of Wisconsin, as
the Secretary of War, ca an er pdyte state
ment of persons interested in Dulith, as
sumed an authority superior 10 the Court,
set aside Its proceedings, aud took bond
from the city of Duluth, to build certain
dyke which it was pretended would RENE
dy the evil complained Of. 1t now appears
that Duluth has gone on and completed
the canal In such a manner that it has
resulted in the destruction of the harbor of
Superior City, and that the dyke or
dered by the Secretary of War is worthless
and void. Governor " ashburne has sent
Z message to the Legislature of Wisconsin
denounclng this extraordinary usurpation
of authority by the War Department, and
demanding prompt and decided action to
viudIcate the honor of the Safe. The
Governor is evidently laboring under the
delusion that the authority Of the judiciary
is still superior to that of the military in
this country. lie should have learned be-
fore now that Gen. Grant does not accept
that ANTICIPATED view of the su9ject.-NeD

One evening, about week ago, lady
of this city, having sore throat, stepped
into closet without a light, and taking
what she Supposed was a bottle Ct iai-
ment, rubbed het neck, and somewhat
upon her head, with the huid BUT she
aoon discovered that she had usel croton
oil instead, aud the result was an extremely
sore and painful neck and head from which
she has not yet recovered. Croton oil is
a dangerous article, and should never be
left where by any possibility it can be
used by mistake.--Lyons (Iosca) Mirror,

been made in the call, as the district had no

IA DEspEEATE RScous9TR wfTH Il PANTHER.
[ffrDm She Portland 0regontdn, December
| ola professional hunter named Reps was
out hunting this week on Martins Island,
down the Columbia. The hunter. was ac-
compan;ed by young hound only, which
started some animal a little distance away In
| the dense brush. Renzs ran from the thick
timberin which he was standing toward the
edge Of the water. A clear space OF several
rods divided the brush and the river margin
On reaching the bank Reps halted and
placed himself In an attitude of defence. In
q few minutes the hound emerged from the
timber and came running toward its master
Immediately following the dog, and in hot
pursuit, large and ferocious panther
bounded IN sight. Reps raised bis gun to
his shoulder and fired. The ball took effect
in the jaws Of The animal, but did not in
flict any serious injury nor retard its adj
vance toward the hunter. On firing Reps
rctrcated into the water up to his arm-pits.
The wounded and Infatuated animal sprang
after and "tacklcds the hunter. The dog
came to the rescue of his master, and made
it so warm for the panther that it aban-
doncd Reps and turned on the hound.
Reps wadcd out toward the bank,
turned around, and fred the second barrel of
Ills gun ub tHc lpdutHcT. me lOau WIS laISc
buckshot, and took effect in the panther's
side. The wound was very severe, but did
not entirely disable the animal, which was
getting the best of the dog. Seeing that the
hound would soon be drowned. Reps re-
solved to rescue it if possible. He had dis
charged both barrels of his gun, and cast
aside his large bowic-knifc in the edge Of the
timber when he started to retreat to the
wafer. No time, however, was to be lost,
and Reps sprang into the river to save his
dog. BY this time the panther had lost
much blood and was growing weak from
| exhaustion. The hunter, who was a power
full man, seized hold of the ranther's head,
and utter a fierce "tussel" broke its hold on
the hound, The panther now turned on
Reps. A long and desperate encounter en-
sued between the hunter, panther, and the
dog. At last Reps succeeded in keeping
the animals nose under water until 1t was
quite dead; after which he drew the body
to the shore and tainted from his wounds
and exhaustion. The hunter was severely
lacerated in the conflict, and has scarcely
been able to leave his bed since. The hound
is also badly torn.
