All the prominent shares are dull in San Francisco
and some of them decidedly lower. The decline IN
the Bonanza shares, especially of Consolidated Vir-

downward turn in this stock unless it be the fact
that repairs going on both at the mill and in

NEW YoKK, Sept. l3.-A Bis
mark, D. T., dispatch of the 7th.
says: A Standing Rock letter da-
ted the 18th, says an Indian ar
rived last night from the hostile
camp. with message from seven
hostile chiefs. He ia known to
have left this agency about three
weeks ago for the hostile camp
While he does not claim to have
been with Sitting Bull, he says he
was with another much larger
camp, where lodges and Indians
covered all the prairie. He re-
ports the Indians as abundantly
supplied with fresh meat, buffalo
aud antelope being in great album
dance. They are are also reported
to have more arms and ammuni-
ton than they know what to do
with. They daily watch the men
who are engaged in building the
post on Tongue river, and say at
one time they could have destroyed
another body of troops rs they did
Custer and his band, but they
th"ught they were going home
aud for that reason did not care To
disturb them. This is supposed
to have been General Miles and
his regiment, when they started
back from the Yellowstone.
They are anxious to treat for
eace,.and do not care to fight the
solliers if they arc let alone; bat
if they are not they will fight for
years if necessary. The writer
says that several of ths bands re-
fused to he counted, and ratiuns
were accordingly withheld FROM
them. Oie chief, who had
submitted TO the count, refused to
receive his ratiOns aud scattered
them on the ground 1t is claimed
that the count, though not COM
pleted, will not show more than
half the number of Indians which
the agent claimed to have been
issuing to. Though new sup
Plies have not arrived, full ratiOns
of -four and half rations of sugar,
coffee, tobacco and bacon were
issued. The correspondent claims

the Indians received fall as much
under this issue as they had for
merly received for double the num-
Der of lodges.
Capt. Collins has been detailed
to assist Lieut. Roach in the count
of refractory lodges.
Intelligence from Fort Thomson,
d! T., of Sept. 8. says advices re-
ceived from Fort Pierce, and sub
sequently confirmed, report that u
party of five men were killed by
The Indians near Wakapa Sica on
their way to the Black Hills.
The massacre took place near
the bead of Sica, and it is thought
that some of the party must have
got away and penetrated the foot
hills as far rs Crook City, from
which place a force Of fifty miners
came out to open the road to Mis-
sour.
1t is reported these were attack
ed aud surrounded and held cor

went to the nils for reinforce

Value Of the Essex Hog.

The Essex is justly esteemed as
one Of the most valuable breeds OF
hogs for the South. It was origin
ated by the late Lord Western, of
Essexshire, England. and has since
been extensively bred aud dissem-
mated by w. Fisher Hobbs, who
had unusual facilities for obtain
lug the very best animals, ON
which he has made considerable
improvements. This breed is said
to have carried off a very large
proportion of the prizes at the
shows of the justly celebrated
Smithfield Club, England. The.
Essex was derived from cross Of
the native hogs of Essexshire with
the Neapolitan; they closely re-
semble the last named, both in
form aud color, but have better
form and size, much more hardi-
ness. and a better constitution.
Stevens, in his Book of the Farm,
says that be never saw breed of
hogs equal to the Essex in the dis
position to fatten. They are ex-
ceedingly gentle, indisposed to
travel far, could attain, if kept
long, great weight, and are SO
compact in form, and small of bone
and offsl. that they invariably yield
greater weight of pork than was
judged before being slaughtered;
and more delicious ham was never
cured than they afford.
The Essex liz usually black
Sticklers for color say that the
spotted Essex is no Essex at all.
The color, however, is not skin
deep, it being entirely confined to
the hair and outer or scarf skin.
When dressed by the usual mode
Of scalding aud scraping, the skin
Is white. The meat is of superior
quality, the fat being firm and the
lean tender, fine grained, and rich
in flavor. They also, like the
Berkshires, are quite free from
cutaneous diseases. their skins be-
ing usually smooth and healthy,
however much they are exposed to
the sun and mud. And as COM
pared with the Suffolk, they attain
greater weight at year old; but
they resemble the Suffolk in every
thing except color, are more hardy
and yield a larger proportion of
lean ineat.-Rural Car0iiaian.
