small Pox at DeadwOOd and

CHICAGO, OCT. 8.
A correspondent of the Big Horn ex-
dition, in camp near Custer City, Oct.
2, telegraphs that the command is still
at this place. The weather is very
cold. The hot days and severely cold
nights with pool water, brought on
typhoid fever, and yesterday a fatal
case occurred. Many more are IN the
hospital. Over fifty per cent. Of the
command are sick and all are ragged.
Scarcely any blankets or o~vercoats are
in the command and many men are
without boots or shoes. The medical
director has made an official report of
the condition, which certainly is most
horrible. Many are suffering from
vermin. The animals are entirely
without grain or hay, and the dry
frost bitten grass il without nourish-
ment.
The small pox is raging in Dead
wood and Crook City. Six fatal cases
are reported to-day.

New YORK, Oct. 6.
There seems to be want of conf

Board recently established here. It's
meetings are thinly attended and very
little energy displayed by those pres
ent. The board issues a daily official
report of its transactions which show
that the greater part of the business is
done after the close of the regular call.

TIE TRAITOR AssEMBLAGE AT In

5th, judging from the Geographic re-

litical demonstration of the campaign.
Delegations were in attendance from
Chicago, Baltimore, Cincinnati, st.
Louis and Lo lisville, and from various
points in I~llipois, Ohio and Kentucky,
and every section in Indiana. The
reasonable assemblage was addressed
by such blatant secessionists as Gov
ernor Curtin and the Confederate Gen
erals Sigel, Farnsworth, McClernarn,
McCandless, Palmer, e. +. Bragg and
Warner. Although the telegraph sup
presses the fact, there is no doubt but
resolutions we're adopted advocating
the payment of the Confederate debt
and the establishment of slavery in

A PEACEFUL ELECTloN.-A dispatch
from Augusta, Ga, dated yesterday,
states that the election last Wednesday
passed off quietly. Not a disturbance
is reported in any portion of the State.
The vote was small but largely Demo,
cratic-the Republicans making no
fight in most of the counties except
for Governor. So quiet and peaceful
an election is an outrage which should
not be tolerated. 1t is evident that
more troops are wanted in that be-
nighted Commonwealth to stir up the
patriotism of the people, and it is to
hoped that Secretary Taft will take the
matter in hand and see that proper
means are taken for the immediate re-
construction OF the State.

noon, Lieut.. Hail, with n detachment of his
men. were returning TO Goliad, and were
al'out two miles above the Farley crossing, OH

when a storm of hail struck them. One hail
stone struck one of his men and knocked him
from his horse Lieut. Hall dlsmOunted and
endea vored TO protect himself from the pelt-
ing hail and rain. His horse escaping, he
then projected himself as bes, he conld be,
hlnu small tree, being the only thing he
could reach for protection The man who
was knocked from his horse was considerably
hurt CAPT Henry Scott who was five or six
miles from Goiiad, on the Reiugio road, was
struck by a large sized hailstone that made
him dsmount TO protect himself. The width
of the most violent part Of the storm was
about one mile. and We have heard OF II only
from about ten miles mp the river TO seven
miles below The hail in its course knocked
every leaf off the trees. beating the grass down
as though there had been fire passed over
the entire extent of its course. Many OF the
stones were as large as a mans fist. The
pastu,e fence of ID. r. Fan, was blown down
or literally taken up and carried of for one
or two miles. In the sweep of the storm it
would take up 100 or 200 yards Of fence
then pass over many panels and come down
again and carry away another portion.
There were over 100 panes of glass broken
on, of the residence of Judge Claiborne; also
several OIL er hou.es in lis course suffered in
