SITKA AND CAssIAR.-J. H. Carney,
Esq. Pnrser of the steamship Caiifor
mia, sends US the following intelligence
concerning that vessels recent trip
North:
The weather at Wrangel and Sitka
has been very cold. On the arrival of
the California at Wrangel the packers
were feeding their horses on flour and
hard bread and had very nearly used
that up, there being but about so sacks
of -four left when feed arrived. A great
many of the horses had died through
exposure and lack of feed.
A good many miners came down on
the California to Wrangel from Sitka.
where they had teen wintering, intend
ing to go up the Stickeen River on the
ice, but the weather being so cold they
will not try it for some time yet.
A. Choquette, famil;arly known as
"Buck," started for his trading post on
the 18th inst, but it is thought he will
have to return.
The hospital steward at Sitka. charg-
ed with theft aud awaiting trial by
courtmartial, committed suicide by
shooting himself through the head with
"a pistol.
The Chilcats and Stickeen Indians
have entered into treaty, and the Sit
ka and Stickeen Indians and now nego-
tiating for the some. This will be a
good thing as the above tribes are very
powerful. and have been quarrelling to-
gether for a long time.
The California experienced rough
weather on her up Tip; but reports fair
weather on her down trip.
A storm ragged at Wrangel ON the 14th,
blowing down houses and demolishing
things generally. The old steamer Hope
used by Chinaman as hotel, was
washed from the beach up on the hill
side, going through several houses and
making the occupants scatter very
quickly; Mrs. Davidson barely escaped
with her life. saving herself by backing
out through the side of a canvas house.
The annual masquerade celebrated by
the Russians closed on the 18th, and is
said to have been very entertaining. 1t
lasted two weeks.

The Indian Vendetta.
From the Fort Smith (Ark.) New Era.
An0thor. Of th0so hl0n7v ~,

Another Of those bloody occurrences
took place on Sunday, the 18th of
last month, in Oklahoma territory, in
the northwest part of the Cherokee
'*nation," not far from the Kansas
line.
1t appears that there had long been
bad blood between the Delewares and
the Cherokee nation. But, as among
all these semi.civiliZed people, jeal-
ousy existed from the first for no
particular reason, and soon a vendetta
was in full bloom which cost the lives
of number of persons. The Dela-
wares, generally, were the main suf-
ferers. Some arrests were made by
the Indian authorities and some trials
had. But all these proceedings were
the merest farces. The worst mur.
derer could not be convicted by the
courts.
On the day mentioned above two
Cherokee desperadoes, some of whose
relatives had been previously killed in
encounters with Delawares, accom-.
panied by an Usage Indian and a white
man, made murder0us attack on a
congregation of Delawares. Baptist

kill him, and in the disturbance and
melee kill as many as they could.
Wilson Sarcoxie, a deputy sheriff and
church member, when the desperadoes
rode up and fired their revolvers, de-
manded peace and the arms of the
gang. He was shot dead at once.
Then commenced a fearful scene of
riot and terror, the assassins emptying
their revolvers at the terrified congre.
cation as they rushed pell-mell from
the house of worship. The mur-
deres finally retreated, and some of
the Delawares who had procured
weapons pursued them. One young
man named Marshall came up with
them, and was fired upon, but, having
Spencer rife, killed one and wounded
another of the murderers. Two others
were subsequently kflleds

.lllll!'l[ Farm and Garden.
Profit in Cows.


j There are but few farmers who fully
realize the true value Of a good cow
we'll kept. Asa general practice three
COWS do not produce as much milk,
butter or cheese as any one would If
treated rightly and prodtably. No &C.
count is kept Of the amodnt of milk or
butter produced by each COW in the
year. The farmer with his cows is in
the same situation a. he is with the
balance of the farm. He keeps no &C.
count and knows nothing Of his busi-
ness. Two hundred and fifty pounds
of butter per cow per year is not
large yield, yet there are more that do
not produce more than half that
amount than there are that exceed
one.half, There is no poorer policy
than starving aud freezing milch
cow. There can be no more improvi.'
dence in amy branch of agriculture
than in half-starving and exposing to
the storms of winter the cow that is
expected to furnish the family with
milk, butter and groceries, We have
seen last spring from three to five
COWS staggering about straw stacks of
farmers, which will require nearly all
the summer to repair wasted nature.
without supplying any of the rich, nu.
triti0us milk which only comes from q
healthy, well-fed COW. Such a farmer
should either keep a less number or
provide better shelter aud more rich
food. One cow well provided for is
better than three starved ones. One
will furnish more milk. Children
should never be fed OH milk drawn
from a poor cow, reduced to the bare
possibility of sustaining vitality. 1t is
cruelty to animals to thus treat them,
and it is murder to the innocent chill.
dren to feed them on such food. The
profit, the morality and respectability
of it require that a man who keeps
COWS should provide better than Is
done in most cases in cold climates.
A man that would cheat his poor old
cow, which has thus far raised his
children, should be considered respect
able in no society. There may be
cases where drouth, food or devouring
insects have rendered it impossible to
provide bountifully for all the animals
on the farm, but in such cases the
owner should not be compelled to see
the poor old COW shaking her horns at
MIN IN MS night dreams. We plead
for the COW, aniif three or five can
not be provided for. sell of, and one
well fed will provide more than the

Watering Poultry.

It is the belief of the writer that
many of the diseases incident to poul'
try are due to neglect in providing
them with pure water particularly do
I believe such to be the case in the ma:
iority of instances where chicken chol'
era prevails. The omission to furnish
fowls with suitable drinking water, Is
one of tie worst features of cruelty to
animals. It is a neglect that is dectd'
edlv adverse to success, hence tends to
diminish individual fancy for fowls,
and works detriment to poultry inter-
ests. Those whom we occasionally
hear say that "there is no profit in
poultry" are not qualified to have the
management of the same, and in their
attentions may be classed with the
thriftless and neglectful parties who
keep fowls that get drink only when II
