FIGHT IN WHICH THE sAvAGEs WERE
THRAsHEp. HowARp's MOVEMENTS.

FIGuT IN WHICH THE sAvAGEs WERE
THRAsHEp. HowARp's MOVEMENTS.
SAN FRANoIsoo, July s.
press dispatch from Portland says the
following dispatch has just been received
from Lewiston, via Walla Walla, under
date of July2:
A courier just in from Kamia says
Colonel Whipplo and his command had an
engagement with the Looking Glass band
on the Clearwater to-day. Four Indians
were killed and left on the field. Many
others were wounded. The squaws and
children took to he river and several were
drowned. Fighting was still going on
when the courier left. The Looking Glass
band is estimated by the scouts to number
about four hundred. AT 8 A. NJ. courier
arrived, having left General Howard's
camp on the night of the 10th. The troops
had made q crossing that day, and the
scouts who had been out in the hills found
the Indians to have gone down toward the
mouth of the Salmon river, and to he maxi
ing for Gray's Crossing on the Salmon,
thence crossing Snake river at the mouth
of Grande Ronde. Dispatches were for
warded to Walla Walla so as 10 apprse
persons in the Grande Ronde and Walla
Walla valleys, that they may be on the
lookout. A private letter states that the
body of Lieutenant Theller had been found
and several other bodies near by great
number of empty cartridges, which gave
proof that they sold their lives dearly.
Late Saturday some Nez Perces, Paons
and Spokemancs and some other northern
Indians held council about ten miles
north of Ceur d'Alene Camp, on Hang
mans creek, at which the murderers OF
Richie were present. A majority Of the
council approved of the killing, and a
minority had separated from the others and
wanted to 60 back to the reservation, but
were afraid to 60 lest they should be at
tackled by the whites. The C9ur dAlenes
| offer to send out ten men of their number
| to accompany few white settlers to bring
| in the murderers of Richie. The whites
have no arms to spare to 60 with the Ceur-
d'Alenes and a messenger is in town for
| arms.

Acting Secretary.

No QUARTER.-A man who looked as
into the Franklin House recently, and with
confidence in human nature and himself
depicted in his every movement, strutted to
the gentleman present to trot out some of
his best brandy. Mr.. Barr obeyed the
order with alacr,y Millionaires in rags
are sometimes to be found in mining
country, and Barr had learned by ex-
perience never to despise a man because he
wears ragged coat. The stranger poured
out and swallowed glass of that best
Reigart brandy, Then he went down into
his pocket for a quarter, as The barkeeper
and bystanders supposed ; but he didn't
bring up any quarter, but only piece of a
oocket-hand ker chief that looked as if it
had spent years about the coal schutes
Wiping his mouth and eyes with the rag he
drew deep sigh and sand to Mr.. Barr who
was now gazing over his spectacles /:
"Iave you heard about this terrible war in
Europe?" "Oh, that's too thin," replied
Barr, 'hand out quarter for that brandy,
you old stiff" "Pa;ience, patience, my
friend" returned the sold stiff" can you
tell me why am like the barbarian Turk
when he gets Russian soldier in his
power !" "No l can't" snapped Barr who
was now getting mad. swell, III tell you.
It's because l show no quarter" John
reached under the counter for u club, but
ere he could bring il to bear the man who
showed no quarter had vanished like the
baseless fabric of a vision.--Columbia
Courant.

Several of the leading events that marked
the fiscal year of the National Government
which ended on Saturday last are of an
encouraging character. Notwithstanding
the absence of detailed returns for the
latter portion of this period, it is known
that the balance of trade in favor of the
United States was much larger than in any
previous corresponding year; that there
has been large increase in the coinage of
the mints and in the product of the precious
me tails; that the receipts from internal
revenue exceed by several millions of dol
lars those OF the previous year, and that q
very considerable increase in the registry
of American vessels, caused in large
degree by the activity of the iron -shipbuild-
ing establishment OIL the Delaware, has
been reported at the Treasury Departm ent,
That the national credit has also risen
rapidly isproven by the fact that after ne
gotiating large number Of bonds during
the year which bear - per cent. interest,
new loan has been placed upon the
market, with excellent prospects of success,
at the low rate of per cent-Forney' s
Press.

Wilcox Notes.
Fine growing weather.

| 'ihS SiONih5 WV"ehSi'
The black eye frost gave vegetation
is nearly cured, though Esq. Aldrich
says things on his farm look little
sick yet, well, it is good enough for
him he ought to know better than to
have farm out of town. Every man
should locate his farm in the village so
he can cover it up frosty nights.
Haying has commenced and jeff
Brown has the boss crop, he says
| he cut four tons to the acre on land
| +botL-- Dvvn nIuwed twice year. Tor
six years. Can anybody beat that?
The fourth passed off very pleasantly,
a fine display ofbunting, fire crackers,
| squib, and fun and frolics were the
order of the day with dance i'm the
evening at the Wilcox House, and a
supper such as Paterson always gets
up which is as much as to say one that
can't be beat in this county.
Picnics are nice things but when
they occur on Sunday they do not add
very much to the morals of a place.
The two fatal accidents that occurred
here a few days ago naturally brings
TO mind the many accidental and
sudden deaths that we have had at
this place in the last ten or fifteen
years, and will give those that most
readily come to mind. First in the
list was a man frozen to death while
intoxicated one Christmas night. An
other was frozen while going through
the woods towards Smethport. Lu-
cius Wilcox was accidentally shot by
u Mr.. Williams. John Market was
shot while hunting deer in the woods
by man named White, Mr..
White was tried for murder and ac-
Quilted, the jury finding accidental
shooting. A German was killed by
falling tree while peeling bark. A
same way. a II. r. Contractor by
the name of Davis was killed by q
collision of flat cars at the depot. A
man was ran over by the cars u little
west of the depot and instantly killed.
Victor Nerbeck was drowned in the
pond. A Swede boy, child and
Lawrence Nearing were also drowned
in the pond. \ man was drowned be-
low the dam. A man was killed by a
blast in well. Another man was
frozen to death between here and
Highland. A man by the name OF
Cotter was killed by Mr. Derr in a
fight, Dcrr fed from the country.
Jack Gregan lay down on lounge
one Christmas day and died i'll few
minutes. Louie Walters was killed
by a falling tree while driving logs
in the creek. A Swede fell from the
trestle works ut the saw mill and was
killed. Two boys living little out OF
town were drowned in the pond at
Wilmarth. Thomas Richards shot
himself. 4 man by name of Hoover
went out in the woods to hunt deei
and has never been heard of since, his
gun was found six or eight years af-
terwards standing against tree
several miles from any house. VIM.
Decker had II child suffocated with
smoke \ child of y. Schumakel
was scaldcd in Il tub of hot water and
so was Il child of George Whitemans
Lars Henry was killed by the kick Of
Il horse, and then there is the two
gave in my last article which makes q
pretty large list for n place no larger
than this. PETE.
