that the incoming administration
Intends to incorporate gigantic ma
tional banking system which will eclipse
IN magnitude, any monied monopoly,
ever inaugurated or countenanced in
any civilized community, ancient or
modern. This is IN strict acce rdance
with the recommendation of the last
message of the President, and tends
directly to oppression and the
total abolition of republics institu-
tions. This scheme if coDsumated is
a stroke of class legislation, unparalleled
in the history Of governments, and an
imposition upon the people of this
Republic, which ought to be sufficient
to drive its supporters into disgraceful

of having his personal liberty as well

that he is skuking around Portland

and every loop hole of escape wholly
cut off He has made several at
t,mpts recently to board his palace car
and fly Californiaward but the close
surveillance ofthe officials of the county
have thus far prevnted his escapein that
way. He has eluded the vigilance of
the Sheriff, and thus prevented papers
from being served upon him, but as he
IS wanted in the Federal rs well as the
Circuit Courts within the State, it will
be diffulcult for him to successfully con.
tinue to avoid the mcshcs of the law. The
air of Portland is thick with flying ru-
mors of his " ways that are dark" some

his body with an ak. Krayigan's g
team had become frightened at the
shooting, and ran back to the house,
which attracted Mrs. Boddy's attention.
She at once proceeded in the direction
from which the team came, to ascertain
the cause, when she was met by baud
of six indians coming toward tle house
who accosted her in friendly manner,
and inquired where the old gentleman,
her husband, was. Never once dreaming
of their devilish intentions, she unsus-
pectingly told them the locality where
Mr.. Boldly was choping wood. The poor
woman then followed the trail of the
wagon sfor about mile from where she
met the Indians, and there her gaze
met the horrid spectacle Of her butch
cred and mutilated son, with the wnrm
blood yet oozing from his gastly
wounds, his head severed from his Bod
dy by bloody ak that lay near by-the
work of theee heartless fends she had
just met. A short distance further lay
the lifeless body of Schira, presenting
similar revolving sight. The harness
had been stripped from his horses, and
the Indians were spied just moving
across the hill with them. Just then
the report Of a few rapid shots from
the direction where her husband was at
work, told the poor woman that his fate
had also been sealed, aud she wildly
fed from the horrible scene to the
nearest settlement. about 10 miles dis
tant, leaving the house to take care Of
itself.
Among the other things in the
house which she in her terror and
fright had left behind her, was over
$500 in coin, concealed in the mattress
of her banded, two 6ne ;goll watches,
belonging to her husband and son;
hanging in f0ll view above the mantel-
piece. On their return with an escort
few days afterwards, the money was
discovered to have been sto'en from its
hiding place, while the watches were
hanging just as she had left them.
This circumstance smacks strongly of
>ome white indians ingenuity, While
the red devils were doing their bloody
work. some light fingered pal was IN
their wake, in the dcspicahle capacity
Of hanger on cleaning the spoils ther

identity would have prompted them to
leave anything valuable behind, if they
had visited the house as the bodies Of
their victims were even robbed Of their
clothes. We hope the scoun1rcl

aud summarlly treated to a dance in
thin air.

During the last campaign the admin.
stration papers persistantly maintained
that Horace Greeley was halt knave
half fool, now the universal acknowl
edgement by the same journals is, that
he was a wise, great and honest man.
Radical consistency. We had said prior
to the election in answer to the pre-
die ion of some of the administration
papers, "that Greeley would receive on
the fifth day of Nov. 1872 the votes OF
majority of the white, honest, tenn
perate, moral, peacible, industrious,
law abiding and sensible citizens and
voters Of the country" and the official
count now demonstrates that we were
correct. Of what do the supporters of
Grant boast in respect to his civil lie.
