Operations i'm Otto of Rose.

This world-renowned perfume, for
which such fabulous prices are paid,
even In these modern times, as to fur
nish grounds for belief in the extent of
the disbursements of Oriental poten-
tates for similar luxuries in times long
ago, is of no small Importance to the
peasantry of Turkey, and as regards
prices especially, when there is falling
off in the crop of roses. Such is ex-
pected to be the case this season, when
the whole distillation, it is thought, will
not exceed 1000 pounds where last year
2,7O0 pounds were produced. There
has of late been some activity in the
market here, based on these reports,
and after Sc gold per ounce has been
accepted, the prices advanced to
Sc. 50@6.75 gold, and now rules quite
firm, owing to this falling off in the
crop, and also, it is stated, to an adj
vance both in Paris and London of
about 30 per cent. within short time.
Nearly 600 ounces have been purchased
here within few days, and the tend
ency of the market, owing to the infu-
ence of this and the advices from the
other side, seems to be toward higher
prices. There are eight provinces in
Turkey, which in total yield 5000
pounds ordinarily, the largest giving
about 1900 pounds but sometimes the
aggregate reaches 5000 pounds, as it
was in 1866, while again itmay fall off to
LOO pounds, as was the case in 1872.
This will show how variable the yield
is. The BUSINESSES entirely in the hands
of peasants and farmers, who have their
stills and condensation tubs busily at
work during the season. The cultiva-
ton requires, the greatest care, and a
considerable quantity of roses are re-
quired to produce a respectable yield
of oil. The crop is variable, but we
are told that 1t requires an average of
5000 pounds of roses to produce one
pound of otto of rose.-NeaO York Com

A Party En- Route TO the Black Hills
Surprised by Indians.

Sioux CRY, Iowa, Oct. 16.-A part of
seven-O. b. Orion, James j. Ogg,
Charles l.. Allen, Thomas II. Burton,
and ID. N. Allen, of Yankton, ID. Il. /;
John Lowe, of Wichita, Kan, and b.
l.. Braden, of Niobrara, Neb. left
Yankton ten days ago for the Black
Hills, and on Sunday, the 18th inst. =,
were attacked by party of Brule Sioux
miles from Niobrara, when desperate
fight ensued, in which Lowe fell dead,
pierced by three bullets. Baden was
shot through the chest and wounded
fatally. Orion was shot through the
arm, and Allen was wounded by an
arrow in the leg.
At the time of the attack the party
was in camp, and the men asleep, when
the Indians surrounded them and at
tempted to stampede the stock, which
awoke the men. An Indian then fired
and the seven men each returned the
shot, when the Indians poured volley
into the camp.
The fight was kept up for fifteen min
utes, when the Indians withdrew, taking
their dead and wounded, which are
thought to be at least ten.
The whites at once started back, with
one man dead, three wounded, and the
mules crippled. They travelled all night,
leaving Baden at settlement and bury
ing Lowe five miles further this way.
The tent had twenty-seven ball-holes
through it, and the wagon became
drenched with blood from the wounded.
The survivors returned to Yankton
yesterday, and, being reliable citizens,
the story of their adventures may be re-
lied upon.
Apprehensions are felt for the safety
of the party of twenty-seven who LETT
this city for the Black Hills, and who
intended to travel in the track of the
Yankton party. The Indians are un-
derstood to express a determination to
prevent white men entering the hills at
all hazards.
