DlscOuraging News from the Indian War.
The Steamer Carroll, from the yell
low Stone, arrived at Bismarck on the 9th
inst. with rather discouraging news from
Crooks and Terry's commands. The Indians
had captured and burned a large amount OF
orage, principally corn and oats, at the
mouth of Powder river, and burned it. Gen.
Terry had been forced TO retreat 50 miles to
the north. Crook was marching north
to form junction, but was so harrassed
by the Indians that he could make but
six miles a day. The grass is burned
m every direction, and it is very diff
calf TO get forage for the animals
The steamer Far West, with supplies, was at
tackled at the mouth OF Powder river, and
Col. Moore, who was on board with three
companies Of troops, waa dared to land and
meet them. Moore ordered few shells
from twelve FOUNDER TO be fired, which
scattered the Indians, after which the pilot
with two scouts went ashore to reconnotre.
They were surrounded by the Indians, and
made a running fight for the boat, in which
one Of the scouts was wounded in the lungs.
His companions returned to him and found
the Indians about to scalp him, but they
killed one, drove of the others and brought
in the wounded man by the aid Of eight
men. Col. Moore all this time gave no aid to
the brave men, and it is asserted, forbade
fifteen men, who volunteered to so with the
captain CT the boat, permission TO do so,
Eight men went without orders, however,
and we're threatened with court. martial
therefor. The steamboatmen pronounce Col.
Moore's conduct as eowardly in the extreme

Now Wan, in his travels, had heard
something about fast horses. and
knew that Fullerton was "no SLOUGH, "
as the saying is. So when he saw n
chance to buy him-as il struck his
heather inteligence-for only SIS, he
concluded he had better close with the
bargain at once, and secure q horse
which could whisk his delivery wagon
around ut a lively rate. With a rapid
nod he conveyed the knowledge to the
seller that he would give the s4j, and
as there were no higher bidders the
purchase was made.
Wan edged up tothe stand and ask.

Mississlnni

The report presented by Senator
Boutwell,, in behalf of the majority of the
Mississippi investigating committee, reaches
the conclusion that the present legislature OF
Mississippi was elected by fraud and intimid-
alton, and is therefore not legal body; and
that the resignation of Governor Ames was IL
legally effected by the legislature; that Mis-
sissippi is under control of a political organi-
zation composed largely of armed men, whose
common purpose is to deprive the negroes Of
The free exercise Of their right of suffrage ;
that these organizations will, if lett to them
selves, obtain control by force and fraud !;
that the power of the national government
will be invoked, and should be exercised in
order to make good its guarantee of repub-
lican form of government in Mississippi. The
report concludes '"The measures necessary
and possible in the exigency are these: LIST
Laws may be passed by congress Tor the
protection of citizens in the respective states
2d-States in anarchy, or wherein affairs are
controlled ~ bodies of armed men should be
denied representation in congress. 3d-Con-
stitutional guarantee OF republican form of
government to every state will require the
United States, il these disorders increase, or
even continue, and all milder measures shall
prove Intellectual, TO remand the state to ter
ritorial condition, and through system OF

provement change the ideas OF the inhabit-
ants and reconstruct the government to a re-
publican basis

Peace Must come at the Swords Point.

General Sherman says that the prop.
osition from agency Indians that a cessation
oi hostilit;es with Sitting Bull and his adj
herents shall be arranged in the interests OF
permanent peace, is altogether ont OF the ques-
ton for several reasons. The Indian tribe
with which the government is at war is not
such nation as to allow the establishment
OF any negotiations OF this or any other
character. No confidence can be placed in
their promise. Another potent reason Tor
not favoring the proposition OF the peaoeable
Indians at the agnecy is that the request does
not come from the hostile tribes, and there is
noground for the beliefthat they desire peace
General Sheridan's views are not yet received
at headquarters.

Fears of an Uprising in southern Texas.

Fears of an Uprising IN Southern Texas.
From all which can be learned, and
it seems to come from a reliable source, grave
fears are entertained of rising among the
southern Indians in Texas, some 1000 or
1900 OF whom are now encamped upon the
northern fork Of the Red river, about % miles
from Fort Elliott. The report says that tn
Indians are now engaged in making grea
preparations for going upon the war-path I;
that they are very well armed, having been
provided at the agencies with the best weap-
ons the United States arsenals could afford,
and that the inhabitants OF the cantonment
are in mortal fear OF an outbreak, the soldiers
stationed in that part OF Texas being now up
on their way TO join Crook in the Sioux coun-
try. There are few troops, it is true, at
Fort Elliott, but they could make but a short
stand against the Indians, who can muster
nearly 800 warrior. There has been feel
ing OF uneasiness prevalent for some time,
and the impression seems to be that the worst
is about to be realized, or that the Indians,
although seemingly inclined to be quiet, are
in reality but waiting for an opportunity to
make an outbreak. The officer in command
at Fort Reno has, however, received orders to
disarm tire warriors, as they come in to draw
rations, so that If il is possible the uprising
may be prevented.

liver each day secretts about two and half
pounds OF bile. When II becomes torpid,
eongested, or il, from any cause, it is disa-

evident that the elements OF the bile must
remain IN the blood, thus irritating, poison-

Nature attempts 70 rid the system OF these

kidneys, lungs, skin, etc, which becomes

The brain, which is the great electrical CEN

Many who are suffering from the eff
fects OF the warm weather and are debilitat-
ed, are advised by physicians to take moder
ate amounts OF whisky two or three times
during the day. In little while those who
adopt this advice frequently increase the
number of "drinks," and in time become
confirmed incbriates. A Leverage which will
not create thirst for intoxicating liquors, and
whichis intended especially for the benefit OF
debilitated persons, whether at home or
abroad, is DR.. Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic

will demonstrate its valuable qualities. For
debility arising from sickness, over exertion
or from any cause whatever, wine glass ull
of Sea Weed Tonic taken after meals will

that the excellent effects OF Dr. Schenck's
