DOMESTIC.

THE INDIANS DRIVEN OUT OF THEIR
RIFLE PITS INTO THE PRAIRIE.
Via WALLA WALLA, July 14.--There' was
desultory firing from the Indian rife pits oil
day on Tuesday. In the afternoon Captain
jackson, with full company Of cavalry,
arrived. The soldiers, kinder Captain NIL
Ter, charged the Indians In the pits, driving
them to and across tho river, and they are
now supposed to be in full retreat toward
Camas Prairie and the Snake country.
INDIAN LOSSES.
Our troops captured the entire camp,
which was very rich In plunder. We also
captured squaw, who says seven Indians
were killed outright and that the number
wounded was great. Thirteen are known
to have been killed. She says the chiefs
wanted to tight and die at the river, but the
squaws urged them to move away.
OUR NEW MINISTER TO SPAIN.
BosToN, July 14'-James Russell Lowell
Minister to Bpain, sailed to day for Liver-
pool in the steamship Parthia. A party of
distinguished persons went down the harbor
with him, salute of flfeeen guns was fred
from the navy yard.
RUMORED HEAVY DEFALeATIoN.
ST. ALBANs, July 14.-Much excitement
Is caused BY report that Rev. A. j. SAM
son is defaulter to large amount to several
estates fer which he acted as executor, ad-
minisrrator, guardian &c. Many prominent
bueiness men are on his bonds. An inyes-
tigation by those interested will be made at
once. The accused is pastor of Congre-
gational church and ex.sudge Of Probate.
ANOTHER RIVER EYsTERY.
The body of an unknown man about thir.
ty-ave years of age was found off the col>
lege In an advanced state of decomhosition.
"A deep wound was on the forehead. On
the body were white shirt and blue vest,
which were the only clothes. There are

THE p, W. & B. r. r. Co.

The Philadelphia, Wilmington & Balt..-
more R. R. Company has lately, and threat
ems this year, to discriminate against the
New York dealers in peaches, in favor of
the West. The producers and dealers have
entered an elaborate and indignant protest,
and lay down the true .rule for the road,
and that is to charge rates according to dit.
f1culty and distance. The New York DEAL
ers consider the matter to be 3 serious one,
and It certainly is strange that the railroad
company should place Instructions In the
way of the larger markets. New York dis
tributes hundreds of thousands of baskets
Of peaches throughout New England dur
ing the season. The Consumption Is im>
mensely affected by the price ct rates at
which peaches when plentiful can well be
afforded, tho quantity purchased in the
East is almost illimitable. 1t. would seem
to be for the interest Of the railroad that
the traffic should not only be we'll but cheap
ly organized. As stated in the remonstrance,
the policy is shortsighted one. We shall
watch the course Of events in this matter
With some interest, for nothing is healthier
than ripe fruit no fruit Is more delightful
70 the taste than the peach. We have come
70 depend upon an annual supply with great
confidence, if railroad company cuts 81,
unjustly, our due proportion, its officers had
better not seek our shores for the nutritious
liam; and elsewhere they eau find dobsdy
10 cook It. abr
