"Bufralo Bill'' on the Indian War.

Buffalo Bill who arrived in Chicago
last week directly from Terry's COM
mand, gives the following views to the
situation on the frontier, "Bill'' stated
as his professional opinion, that the
wary redskin referred to, is now serene
ly hiding himself on the Big Horn river,
somewhere in the vicinity of Fort
Smith. He gives very plausible rea-
son for his views, which is as follows:
When Sitting Bull and his concomitant
hair-lifters left the Big Horn, moving
east, they left the trail indicating that
they carried light traps and moveables.
1t is, therefore, probable that he ''cast"
his tents and the main portion Of his
provisions near the Big Horn, or left
them secreted. He knew that the mill
tary force would follow him and so con-
tinued to lead them eastward, across
the Rosebud and Tongue rivers; when
he had accomplished that little piece Of
strategy he let his men disband and
scatter, so that they could not be found.
They then doubled back, and returned
to the Big Horn, leaving Crook and
Terry away to the east, whenceit would
be impossible to follow him back at the
present late season, there being no relia-
BILE source for the soldiers to obtain pro-
visions from during the cold weather.

A Mexican Town Occupied by United
States TrOops,

A Brownsville special of September
formation that the condition of anar-
chy on the Mexican side of the Rio
Grande has resulted in the occupation
United States soldiers, under the COM
mand of Lieutenant Colonel H. C. Mer-
riam, and by the consent of the Mexi-
can Federal Commander General Rev
enltas. The movement was made on
the application of Colonel Haynes, the
Consular Agent, at that place. New
Laredo had been captured some weeks
ago by a party of revolutionists, who
subsequently, evacuated the place to
join the forces of Cortina further down.
The country was thus left to the mercy
of the ladrones, and with no adequate
protection from any home government.
The foreign residents, through Colonel
Haynes, made demand on Colonel
Merriam for assistance, which, under
the existing orders from General Ord,
based on an agreement with the feder-
al Mexican district commander, was
readily granted. Colonel Merriam
crossed the Rio Grande from Fort Nc
Intosh with fifty men of the Twenty
instant, and at last accounts still occu-
pied the plaza at New Laredo. The
dispatch also states that the federal
forces from Matamoras, commanded by
Colonel Neal, have burned Cortina's IS
rancho. Sabinoo Quiroga has received
reinforcements and raised the siege of
Vallodome, where he has been since his
defeat ten days ago. The entire bor-
der is on the qui vive, owing to the
concentration of both parties near
Camargo.

A Short Speech by Mr.. Blaine on the
Maine victory.

I AT large gathering of Republicans
in public hall in Augusta, Me-, Oh
Monday night, assembled to hear the
election returns, Mr.. Blaine was loudly
called for, and in response spoke as fol
lows:
FRIENDS AND TowNsMEN: L have
never assisted in securing Republican
victory in Maine that gave me the pro-
found and heartfelt qualification derived
from the work of to-day. At the mo-
ment of Governor Hayes nomination
for the Presidency, / hastened to tele-
graph that Maine would speak for his
approval in no doubtful terms l sent
this assurance not only to the standard
bearer of the great party to which am
proud to belong, but to a personal friend
for whom | entertain the warmest re-
gard and most sincere respect. l am
sure the whole country will take the re-
suit in Maine to-day as most signifi-
cant indication of that larger, grander
victory, which will preserve the power
of the nation in the hands of those who
believe we are nation. The people of
Maine act independently and vote in
telligently, and they have to-day indig-
nantly refused to be transferred to the
agents and allies of the Confederate
power in the South. And the Sister
States of Maine that fought by her side
in the war for the Union will stand by
her side in tho position she has taken to-
day. Mark that. Gentlemen, bid you
good night, and bid you good cheer
for the morn.'

Perhaps Tweed has not been caught
mapping, after all. When he escaped,
he was in jail in default of bail on a
suit to recover few millions of the
money he stole from the public. Sc
long as he kept out of the way, no pa
pers could be served on him. So he went
yachting on the Atlantic until it was
safe to so to port. Tired of cruising at
his own expense, he comes back as a
guest of the United States, under an
expensive escort. A New York dis
patch of last evening says that "Sherifi
Conner to-day returned the execution
in the Tweed six-million-dollar judg-
ment wholly unsatisfied, he being unable
to find any property on which to make
a levy.''

'Giye Ne One Of Those Uniforms.

sGive me one of those uniforms!''
said a laborer from the rolling mill as he
rushed into the South Akron Hayes and
Wheeler Wigwam just as the club was
marching out for parade the other night.
As the man has always been a Demo-
crat, and rank one at that, his remark
created considerable surprise, and a
member of the club standing by thought
he must have stumbled into the wrong
wigwam by accident, and said as much.
s'No, I'm all right, !" said the ex-Demo-
crat, s'I'm going to vote for Hayes and
Wheeler and the straight Republican
ticket, and want one of those uni
formsl'' He was provided with torch
and cape, and admitted to the ranks
without further delay.

The truth of history'' would seem
to demand that the watch-cry 'Tilden
and Reform should give place to Til
den and Ether.'' The Tilden brothers
ran for some time what they called an
ether laboratory. For while they paid
no tax; but it was finally ascertained
that under the guise of ether, they were
distilling highwines. The government
seized the Laboratory" and crushed
out the family whisky ring. Samuel J.
furnished the capital for the fraudulent
enterprise.

To the Editor of the Cincinnati Gazett:
The following anecdote is submitted
to professional gentlemen who give evil
dence before Coroners' juries:
The witness for the prosecution in a
murder case was thus questioned by His
Honor:
''You say you saw the man shot at
and killed?''
Eyes, SIR"
"You said, 1 think, that the charge
struck the deceased on his body, be-
tween the diaphragm and the duode-
num?''
Witness-''No, sir; didn't say nc
sich thing. 1 said he was shot between
the hog-pen and the wood-house."

The people of Peru are whimsical.
A month ago the citizens of Lima car
ried President Pardo through the streets
proclaiming him the country's savior;
a week ago they attacked his house with
stones, and would have borne him
through the streets on rail had not
Pardo and two of his ministers led a
bold attack upon the rioting populace.
The change in sentiment is probably
due to some expression of the President
upon public measures.

To Sell or Hold!

WE frequently receive requests from
readers to tell them what the prospect is
for rise or fall in price of certain pro-
ducts. In short, they want to know wheth-
er to sell or hold Now this is response
bility no agricultural paper wants to as
sumo; it is too great. Probabilities may
be stated, and generally are; beyond this
no man can go. Too much depends upon
contingencies in these matters. We
might say, sell your wheat now, for there
is no prospect Of its being higher-and
next week war might be declared in
Europe that would send wheat up fifty per
cent Wouldn't we catch it them The
farmer smarting under a loss OF $500,
would declare war against ali false
prophets, and we would suffer much from
our i'll timed advice. Let farmers assume
this direct responsibility each for himself.
1t is the duty of the press to keep him
posted on crops, failures, prices and pros
poets, but further than this lie must be
governed by his judgment and surround
ing circumstar ces J! he knows what a
crop costs him and what he can afford to
sell at, then all difficulty is removed.
Let him watch the markets, and when the
price offered will justify and there is nc
reasonable probability of rise soon, then
sell. If he is in debt and the interest ac.
cumulating will over; balance profits from
any probable rise in price, sell and dis.
charge the debt If he can afford to hold
he should always do it, when the price
will not pay reasonable profit on cost Of
production n-OhiO Farmer.

CoNsUMPTrvKs, TAKE NoTIoE.-Every moment
Of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much
depends on the judicious choice of remedy. The
amount of testimony in favor of DIR. ScheDcks Pull
monte Syrup, as a cure for consumption, far ex-
ceeds all that be broughtto support the preten-
slons OF any other medicine. See DR.. Schenck's
Almanac, containing the certificates OF many per-
sons of the highest respectability who have been
restored to health after being pronounced incurabe
by physicians of acknowledged ability. Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many, as these
evidences will shows but the cure is often promoted
by the employment of two other remedies which
DIR. Schenck provides for the purpose. These ad-
ditional remedies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use Of these
medicines, according to directions, DIR. Schenck
certihes that most any case Of Consumption may
be cured.
DR.. Schenck is professionally at his principal
Office, corner Sixth and Arch street, Philadelphia
every Monday, where all letters for advice must be
addressed.

To produce a large quantity and a good
quality of potatoes, some growers pinch
off the ends of the branches-some the
| yielding flowers; but this is great mis-
take. The pinching can only be done
when the buttons or seed balls are formed,
by which proceeding the formation of
tibers is haStened. A better result is OBJ
tanned by bending down the branches
above the ground to the ground; in this
case the bent.down branches ought to
be kept down by layers of soil or light
boards; by doing this the flow of the
sap will be directed to the parts below,
and an augmentation of the tubers will

In the same manner the retardation of
the sap, by kiiotting Or trampling down
the stalks of onions and garlic produces a
quicker ripening and finer and larger

! three places against sticks, greater pro-
fusion of fruit-buds; or by supporting the

4 Few Facts.

PROF. NEwCoMB has been publishing q
series of articles in Hdrper'S Weekly on the
currency question which have shed consid-
cradle light on the places made dark by the
dilutionists. Here is an extract worth
perusal:
Wendell Phillips is credited with saying
| that specie payments mean specie when you
do not want il, and nothing but paper when
you do. No better illustration of the wild:
ness with which such men talk can be given
than merely putting this statement alongside
of facts. These facts are such as no inta-
ZIONIST will have the hardihood to deny, how
ever much he may try to explain them away,
and they are worthy Of being carefully borne
in mind:
| First Fdct-For hfty years past there has not

has there, in all probability, been q business day

gold. Hardly business day now passes IN which
| The Bank Of England does not pay out gold to the
amount Of tens, or even hundreds OF thousands OF
dollars to people wanting It, Remember this

not be kept up on the limited supply OF gold now
available.

the disadvantage Of her poorer ca ses the average

other country in Europe.

ciating. The cases OF such attempts and their
failure are so numerous that y whole volume

! Fourth Fdct-There IL now twice as much cur

three years preceding our civil war; and yet we
are told that The country ia suffering for want OF
