SAN Francisco, June II. A dis
patch from Lieut. Wilkinson, now at
Walla Walla, conveys startling news
of uprising OF the Indians, and states
that they were numbering the whites
at Mount Idaho, 60 miles from Lewis
ton. The order has been complied
with, and all available troops at Walla
Walla will be dispatched ut once to
the scene of the difficulty.
Another dispatch says that several
settlers living on Cottonwood Creek
have been massaered by the Indians,
and the messenger who brought the
news was entrppcd and wounded by
the savages. General Howard, who
is beyond Walla Wal a, has just tele-
grapned TO Adjutant General Wood
in this cicy to forward any available
troops without delay to the scene OF
the trouble. Great excitement pre-
uails. 1t is thought however, that
the reports are exaggerated. The
full particulars will soon be known.

II is mistaken idea that some peo-
pie have, that a newspaper can be run
very easily, and that all one has to do
TO print or edit paper is to sit down,
read their papers and make no effort,
,-ur contend with any financial embar-
rasments. 1t costs money to print a
paper, and class of subscribers that
are continually finding fault because
a paper is not out just on the dot, and
at the same time owe for the very
same paper they are growing about, is
eVery discouruging to the one running
the paper. A man running country
newspaper with limited means, is very
liable to meet with obstacles, to over
=. come which are unavoidable. A man
that has plenty of ready money to
back him up, as was the case with the
Herald when controlled by the Essex
County Herald Association, can run
"a paper if his subscribers do not do as
they ought to and delay the payment
of their subscriptions. But we are
obliged to depend, to great extent
on the income of the paper for our
funds to carry on the publication of
the Herald. And our patrons instead
of finding fault if our paper does not
get at their respective post offices on
time every week, should remember
that it is their own fault, and not ours,
rs we would be able TO get our sheet
ont right on the dot.if all our subscrib-
ers were to do their duty. and pay for
their paper as they ought to, in adj
vance. Now we hope this will be
sufficient dun, and if our readers
would have everything go on smoothly
and nice, they must do their part and
we assure you we will do OURS.

use; and every family should have them on hand
for their protection and relief, when required.
Long experience has proved them to be the SAT-
est, surest, and best of all the Pills with which
the market abounds. By their occasional use,
the blood is purified, the corruptions Of the sys-
tenn expelled, distractions removed, and the
whole machinery of life restored to its healthy
activity. Internal organs which become clOgged
and sluggish are cleansed by Ayer's Pills, and
stimulated into action. Thus incipient disease
Is changed into health, the value of which change,
when reck0ned on the vast multitudes who enjoy
1t, can hardly be computed. Their sugar coating
makes them pleasant to take, and preserves their
virtues uAimpaired for any length of time, SO
that they are ever fresh, and perfectly reliable.
Although searching, they are mild, and operaF
without disturbance to the constitution, or diet, Oh
occupation.
Fufl directions are given on the wrapper to
each box, how to use them as Family Physe,
and for the following complaints, which these
Pills rapidly cure:-
For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Listless.
ness, LanguOr and Loss of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom-
ach, and restore its healthy tone and action.
For Liver Complaint and its various symp-
toms, Bilious Headache, Sick Head.
ache, Jaundice or Green Sickness, Bill.
tOus Collie and Bilious Fevers, they should
be judiciously taken for each case to correct the
diseased action or remove the distractions which
cause 1t.
For Dysentery or DiarrhOea, but one
mild dose is generally required.
For rheumatism, GOut, Gravel, Pal.
RtthIOn tne HhShEt, n-AtM buO
Side, Back and LOins, they should be contin-
uously taken, as required, to change the diseased
action of the system. With such change those
complaints disappear.
For Dropsy and DropsieaI swellings,
they should be taken in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
For Suppression, large dose should be
taken, as it produces the desired effect by SYM
patty.
AS q Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels, restores the appetite, and invgorates the
system. Hence it is often advantageous where
no serious arrangement exists. One who feels
tolerably well, often finds that dose of these
Pills makes him feel decidedly better, from their
cleansing and renovating effect on the digestive
apparatus.

CUBA.


We gather from our exchange files this
time a good deal Of interesting informa
ton about this large island.
The Trinidad Chronicle gives US the
following:
1.-The population of Cuba was per
enumeration of 1867, the latest that seems
to have been taken, 1,414, 500. 1t had
previously to that census been generally
stated as being about 1900, 900 and it
would not be surprising if the check and
losses incurred In many ways by the
rebellion that has ragged in the island from
1868 down to the present year has reduc-
ed the number OF inhabitants to its earlier
figure 200. 900. The area of the Island
is about 43. 632 So. miles Cour-ffths- that
of England and Wales), being 24B times
as large as Trinidad. At 1900, 900 nh.
it contains only 81 s persons p. SO. M.
being not half as many as this island.
which, with all is virgin expaases Of
fOrest.plain, mountain aud swamp. averages
II beads per square mile. Cuba could
maintain and hold ten millions without
auy cfowiing, but it will be a very long
time Helora it shows any considerable
Increase on present numbers. It is more
likely 10 %retrograde for mary years"
The Cuban tariff is so high ard compli
Gated that we wonder anything at all is
imported into the island. Goods are divid-
ed into three classes, which are subdividcd
into 4 600 different headings. The tariff
ranges from l63 to 353 per cent. Spanish
Goods Of course pay the least, j. e., if
brought in Spanish vessels, while United
States productions are liable to Is per
cent. higher duty thln any other. In
spite of this the e~nterprising Yankees
sent last year to Cuba IS 100000
worth. IF goods, and received from it
sugar and tobacco worth $32 900. 900.
In the Jurisdiction of Puerto Principe,
the head quarters OF the rebellion, the wal
has ouly left 60 grazing farms aid
26 Others, whereas when the wal commen-
ced there were in that Jurisdiction alone
100 sugar Estates, 70 tobacco Estates 742
grazing farms, 40 breeding farms 1896
other farms AMI country places, and
: bee farm. But in spite Of the rebellion
there are yet cf estates paying taxes in the
island as macy as 1,19l sugar estates, 1872
coffee estates, 3,172 grazing farms, 4 Sill
tobacco farms, and II O94 other farms.
The crop Of tie island was in 1878 the
cnclmous amount Ct $4,000 tons II
has fallen now to ASS, 900, which is still very
large, but the influence Of the rcbr llion
is telling so as to diminish 1t every year.
The local consumption of sugar was in
1878 equal to III lbs. per head it is now
not a third as much.
The Trin;dud Chronicle says:
1--WE met with statements recently that
at meeting of the great proprietors aud
agents interested in the sugar plantations, it
was resolved to form a great capital for the
purpose of importing a large supply Of COO
lie labor for their estates from China. Know.
ing, what all the world knows, Of the in
human treatment the same class Of people
have hitherto been subjected to in Cuba,
it is to be hoped the Chinese authorities
will refuse to allow reopeniag Of the infa-
nous traffic, and that it will not be per-
mitted to be carried on through Macao or
other foreign settlements Oh the coast"
