The good people of Orcas Island intend to
have centennial celebration on their Island
this coming Fourth. A general invitation to
the settlers of the other Islands has been ex>
tended, and hope that it will be generally &C.
cepted. They have never had a Fourth of

why not have one this year. We hope they
will succeed in having good time of it.

WAR Of Race and Religion.
LONDON, July 3-The Pail Nall Gazette to
day concludes a gloomy leader on war as
follows: 1t is to be a warO race and reig-
ion. This is what they are trying to make of
it in Russia. This conception of it, which
will be instilled into the minds of the vassal
population of Turkey. who are not likely to
faint for want of stimulants 1t will be so
regarded in Turkey, and as such it is hailed
by sympathiZers in our own country. We
regard this outlook with apprehension and
dislike. Nothing at present gives us more
concern than the prospect upon which we
have already entered of seeing in England a
division of opinion and sentiment, to which
the clashing of sympathy for North or South
during the American war was as nothing:
Whatever government ruled it England
should give it steady and sober support from
all sides; but already ministers are threat
ened with tampering enthusiasts, who explic
lily declare themselves ready TO sacrifice our
safety in the East, rather than that England
should shame herself by being any way in
opposition to such an enterprise US the de
struction of Turkey How civilization is to
be advanced by wars, which imperil civiliza
ton like our own, when spread over half the
world, is not question which these particu
lor enthusiasts of humanity are likely to con-
slider.

Gen. Custer found the Indian camp of

known of the operations of this detachment
only as they trace it by the dead. Major
Reno commanded the other seven companies

The Indians poured in murderous fire from
all directions, besides the greater portion
| fought on horseback. Custer, his two broth
ers, nephew and brother in-law were all killed
and not one of his detachment escaped. 207
men were buried in one place, and the
killed is estimated at three hundred, with
only thirty-0ne wounded.

Why Married Persons Live the
Longest.

DR.. Hall, in one of his Health Tracts
gives a few reasons why marriage is ia
vorable to health: Bachelors are always
in a state of unrest. They feel unsettled
If indoors after supper, there is a sense
of solitariness, inducing sadness, if
not settled melancholy, with all its de-
pressing Influences. And many, many
hours in the course of the year are spent
in gloomy inactivity, which is adverse
| to a good digestion and to a vigorous
and healthy circulation. His own cham
Der or house being so uniuviting, the
I bachelor is inclined to seek diversion
outside-in suppers with friends, in
clubs which are introductories to intem-
/ perance and Icentiousness, or to those
more unblushing associations which, un-
der the cover of darkness, lead to speedy
ruin of health and morals, and when
these are gone, the way downward to an
untimely grave is rapid and certain On
the other hand, marriage lengthens a
mans life by its making home inviting
by the softening influences which it
has upon the character and the affections
by the cultivation of all the better
feelings of our nature, ana in that pro
portion saving from vice and crime
There can be no healthfuI development
of the physical functions of our nature
without marriage 1t is necessary to
the perfect man-for Divinity has an
nourced that it was ''not good for man
to be alone" Marriage gives lauda-
bic and happy object in Iife-the pro-
vision for wife and children, their pres
ent comfort and their future welfare,
the enjoyment in witnessing their hap
piness, and the daily and hourly partici-
patton in affectionate interchange of
thought and sentiment and sympathy
These, are the considerations which an
tagonizes sorrow and tighten the bur
dens of ife-thus strewing flowers and |
casting sunshine all along its pathway. |
Yoltaire said: 1.-The more married men |
you have, the fewer crimes there will !
be. Marriage renders man more -vir- /
tuous and more wise. An unmarried |
man is but half OF a perfect heing, and /
it requires the other half to make things
right. And it cannot be expected that
in this imperfect state he can keep the
straight path of rectitude, any more
than boat with one oar can keep a
course. In nine cases out of
ten, where married men become drum
kards, or where they commit crimes
against the peace of the community, the
of these acts was laid while
in single state, or where the wife is, as
is sometimes the case, an unsuitable
match. Marriage changes the current
IF a mans feelings, and gives him cen
,er for his thoughts, his affections, and
his acts. Here is home for the entire
man. The counsel, the affectionate, the
example, and the interest of his better
lalf" keep him from erratic courses, and
rom falling into thousand tempta-
ions to which he would be otherwise

-iage is the friend to society and to his

Babies Baths.

\ physician says: For the wind in
the stomach children are thought to
have for their tiresome crying, and for
their restlessness and worrying at night
with which they are afflicted, if the
warm bath were resorted to oftener in
stead of using soothing syrups and
worse nostrums, it would be far better
for the children -
In preparing warm baths for infants
great care should be taken not to have
the water too hot. A lady remarks on
this subject: "When my child was sick
one night the doctor ordered the hot
bath. The lady who was with ME got
the water ready, and said it was all
right. just as she was going to put the
child into the water said, Put your el-
bow into the water first She did so,
and found it altogether too hot. In
washing babies l often find the water
that is agreeable to my hands not so to
my flesh that is kept covered with clo-
thing, which leads me to think often
times babies are tortured, and even in
jured, by giving them bath in water
that is too hot"
