THE INDIAN WAR.
Sixty Soldiers and Many Settlers
Reported Killed or Missing.


A courier who arrived at Walla Walla
from Mount Idaho, yesterday, brings
the following account of the fight with
the Indians, which WAS received here
by telegraph. Col. Perry with his
command engaged the Indians at White
Bird about daylight, and after fighting
about eight hours, was repulsed with
heavy loss of men and horses. Up to
Saturday the Indians are known to
bave killed twelve men and many more
ore reported killed. Some of the men
who have returned from the fight est
mate the number in killed, wounded
and missing at sixty men. They say
| the fight took place at the mouth of
the White Bird Canon instead of at the
head as at first reported, and that the
soldiers broke and run at the first fire
of the Indians and that the officers
could not rally them. They were pur
buOu Wy ti6 luuldDS WHO udu DeLI6T
guns and fred with deadly effect all the
time. The Indians then had O. war
dance on the prairie. Volunteers have
arrived here from Columbia, Washing
ton Territory. The settlers of Paradise
Valley are stockaded and have sent
here for ammunition. The Genesse
Valley settlers are here with their fam.
lilies. We suspect no immediate dan.
ger here. What the effect of this
victory will have upon the Indians now
friendly remains to be seen.
EXCITEMENT AT BAKER CITY.
A dispatch from Baker City says
the greatest excitement prevails there.
particularly since the news was re-
ceived that Winnemucca 5 band had
crossed Snake River between Boise and
Silver City going in that direction.
They have arms and ammunition, and
company of volunteers has been
raised. A messenger from that point
was sent to Camp Harvey last Monday
with Geographic orders to the COM
handing officer at that post to start
with troops toward Boise City.

Distinguished individuals.

The passenger train last evening was
literally loaded with distinguished indi-
viduals. Among the most noted were
Senator Bruce of Mississippi, and
would-be Senator Pinchback of Louis
lana, both somewhat colored, and lack
Chandler, ex-Secretary of the Interior,
and General Collector of Assessments
for Campaign Expenses. 1t is reported
that they are on their way to California
to endeavor to reconcile the different
factions of the Republican party in
that State. Chandler's capacity for
whisky straight is said to be superior
to that of all his companions combined,
and when charged with quart of the
fluid, he can double discount in pro-
family the most successful mule ex-
horter on the continent.

A Mistake,

A special dispatch from Winnemucca
to this Eureka Republican says that
Crozier has failed in his appeal, and
will hang. AS the Supreme Court has
not yet passed upon Crozier's case.
or at least have not advised the au-
thorities here that an opinion has been
filed, the Republicans special must
have been mistaken.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE LIST OF TRIAL JURORS.

What the Irs esistibiy Funny Mem of
the Court-house Consider n Huge
Joke
Yesterday what purported TO be a
list of the names of the trial jurors
drawn for the July term of the District

1t was received through the regular
channel and published in good faith.
We have since been informed that none
OF the persons whose names were pub

WHO osMAM PAsHA


The Army and Mary Journal publishes the toll
lowing: "It is confidently asserted in England
from private information that Osman Pasha is none
other than that celebrated fugitive from French
prisons, Marshal Francois Ochire Bazaine. This
intelligence is by no means improbable. Bazaine
was always active and stirring man, and the cir
cumstances Of his public trial in France were such
las to shut him out from y career in any armv:of
Christian Europe Like most French officers of
rank, he had served in Algeria and in SO doing ac-
luired considerable knowledge of Arabic and of
the Arabs. Besides this he served in the Crimean
war in command of the foreign legion, and after
ward as French governor of Scbastopol. During
9 that period he naturally made many Turkish ac-
Iquaintances and therefore there is nothing more
. natural than that he should go to Turkey in the
hour of his need. Itis no secret that Bazane was
strong Bonapartis and that his treason TO France
in the interest of the late Emperor is ndu gently
4 looked on by the Imperial Government In Turkey,
owherc Bazaine's master the best friend of the
SSnltan, Bazaine would be received with open arms
55Icapacty of trained soldier That he should have
aly natural. and had not war come, it is possible
that he might have concealed it till his death but
3 war with Russia, his gonis oftwcny years ago
could not fail to bring Osman Pasha in contact with
3 the people who knew General Bazaine as Governor
% of Sebastopol. Whether the secret leaked out
through some Russian officer prisoner in his hands
4 or some English or French attache who had served
. in the Crimea and recognized Osman Pasha, is un-
z certain, but the character of his fighting Pevna
81 stubborn defensive battle, is criously like thu
. first day at Gravelottc, though the difference o
& force OH the enemies side led him to happier is
. sue."

a Wonderful Story OF Petrified
Snake and living Frog.

The Grand Rapids Times says: !:
Thursday, while Henry f. McCor-
mick, of the town Of Grand Itapids,
was splitting an oak log he came
across cavity, in which he discover
ed the head OF n frog embedded in the
wood. The frog appeared quite live
ly upon his sudden exposure to the
sunlight, and Mr.. Mccormick took
especial pains to chip away the wood
between the balance of his frogship
and daylight, when he discovered
that the frog had been partially swal-
lowed by snake of some two feet
in length, and, what is still more sim
gular. the snake was petrificd, and
that portion of the frog inside of the
reptile was also petriiied, although
the protruding portion was lively
and vigorous. However miraculous
this may seem, it is vouched for by
some of the best men in the county.
