from Vancouver on his allowance. A
large number of freight wagons are on
the road four miles above Cayuse station;
the men and horses are all gone. The
road is dangerous.
The following letter was just received
at Umatilla by Gov. Chadwick by
courier from Pendleton: The troops
under Capt. Miles are now fighting
about two miles above the agency with
the Indians. They have been fighting
for the last two hours. The Indians
are on the river near their general
camping place. Almost all the Una
tillas are supposed to be in the fight.
AL. Bunker has just got in; Coggan has
not been found yet. Should the Indians
get the best of Capt. Miles we will all,
undoubtedly, have to fight. There are
over one hundred men here who have
no arms whatever.

z WE look upon the treaty between
Great Britain and Turkey as of vastly
more Importance than that concluded
at San Stefano between Turkey and
Russia. By the new compact England
becomes the power in Asiatic Turkey,
instead of the Ottoman government.
Thus q certain check to Russian ag-
gression is assured, the English power,
possessions and prestige all being very
greatly advanced. The proceeding may
not be strictly legitimate in political
point Of view, but few win regret the
move, for the reason that England can
sooner civilixe and christianize the East
than any other power, and besides, she
gives her sub iects better government
than the citizens Of any other nation
have, except. the United States.

THE Democratic Congressional COM
mittee have not yet made any large
preparations for the coming canvass
this fall. Members who have hereto
fore subscribed literally to the general
fund, state that their means will be
applied locally this year, in aiding to
return representatives from close dis
tricts, which they regard as more
effective mode of campaigning than by
the circulation of political documents.

that hard times make it difficult to col
lect any money for political purposes.

She Wants Those Swords.

Washington, July ia lady living
in England has made application for
three valuable swords, which were for
merly the property of Gen. Twiggs, but
which were captured by Gen. Butler
when he entered New Orleans during
the war. These swords were sent to
President Lincoln by Gen. Butler and
deposited by his successor, johnson, in
the vaults of the treasury department
for safe keeping. They were valued at
$35, 900. One of them was presented
to Gen. Twiggs by Congress for bravery
during the Mexican war. The scabbard
is Of pure gold and the sword hilt is of
solid gold, brilliantly set with diamonds.
When Twiggs ran away from New Or
leans, at the approach of the Union
troops, he left the swords behind but
sent letter to young lady friend
saying that he had decided to give them
to her, and for her to obtain them.
Soon afterwards Gen. Twiggs died.

Other Religious Intelligence.

New York, July 13.-The Christian
at Work pays the following compliment
to Rev. Robert Patterson, of San Fran
cisco, who has just accepted a call from
the Central Presbyterian church al
Cincinnati: "He thus returns to the
scene of his earlier labors, where his
welcome will be hearty and unanimous.
Rev. Patterson is profound thinker,
able writer, most successful preacher,
and his ministry can scarcely fail OF
success.o
The Northern and Southern Baptists
have united in defraying the expenses
of the purchase of chapel in Rome.
The mission is under the care of the
Southern Baptists.
The Baptist Year Book for 1878
gives the following figures: Associa-
tions, 1,048; churches, 23,9OS; or
dained ministers, IA, 500; additions by
baptism, 102, ,292; by letter, 80, ,4S6.
Total membership, 2,024, ,224. OF the
PAT men who have graduated from
Beloit (Wis.) college, over one-half
have entered the ministry. OF the
whole number of missionaries sent out
by the Wisconsin board during the
past twenty years, Beloit furnished
one-fifth.
The Presbyterian church has three
synods in Illinois. These report asto-
tai of "A, ,281 communicates.
Pennsylvania is the stronghold of
Presbyterians, there being in that State
1872, ,525 members. In New York they
have 100, ,S48 communicants.
The Friendly Islands have practical
ly ceased to be missionary ground, and
the work there is chiefly one of super
vision. In Fiji more than 5000 per-
sons have been added to the church
during the year.
Rev. Augustus Blanvelt, who, it will
be remembered, was recently sun
