and $50 miles from the same point bv the
river. Its population numbers 1900 to
1000. There is, in soocessfuI operation
here three steam FIGURING Mills, which
manufacture as good flour as is made any
where, which is shipped in large quanti-
ties to Little Rock and other points be-
row hcru, stcam Saw aud Planting nffn
to which is attached machinery for max
ing mouldings and scroll work; a wagon
buggy and carriage mandatory; three
steam cotton gins; a Broom Factory
which ships brooms to ST. Louis, New
Orleans and other places. The Presby.
terian, M. +. Church South, Episcopal
and Catholic Societies, all have good
churches in which services are regularly
held. The Masons,' Odd Fellows and
Temperance societies all have organiza-
tions. There are also, two weekly news
papers published here. Van Buren, has
many buildings, both brick and frame,

SETTLERS IL DIsTREss-ASoTHER FIGHT IN
PROGRESS.

SAN FRANCISCO, July IA Portland
Oregon dispatch says; Gen. Sprague. SUI
perintcndent of the o. d N. company has
received the following dispatch from Gov.
Chadwick, under date Of umarila, July 13
"Could Portland do anything to relieve
the distress Of Pendleton! The actual nee
essaries Of life are needed there by families.
Some emigrants are there. have request
ed officials to prevent suffering"
The following dispatch was received from
Walla Walla, July 18th, s p M:
"a man who left Weston to-day says
troops are fighting between the mouth of
Lodi and Willow Cayuse station, twelve
miles from Weston, on the Meachman road.
They commenced firing between and 0
o'clock thismorning, They were still fighting
when he left. There were about $50 SOL
diers under arms. They expect Mayor
Sanford at Cayuse station tonight. Six
companies that left Walla-Walla for Lewis
ton have been turned back and are now en-
route for Walla-Walla. Many wagons have
arrived in the city, containing families
coming in for safety. They are still arriv-
ing from various directions.
The following dispatch was received
from Walla-Walla July 10, at 10 p. M:
This place was thrown into excitement
this p. III. upon receipt of report that the
hostiles were on Wild Horse creek and
that the fighting was going on there, be-
tween the artillery and Indians, and that
in all probability the reds would come
down Vans Nicklp canyon and make for
the mouth of Snake river, passing within
two or three miles of this place and likely
calling upon US. Upon learning of the
fighting upon Wild-Horse Gen.
Wheaton stopped seven companies Of cav
airy under Gen. Forsyth, who were just
leaving for Louiston. and ordered them
Immediately to Walla Walla, to aid Miles,
who it was supposed was engaged. A mes
sage was just received confirming this sup
position, and courier, sent from here to
Gen. Forsyth, instructing him to make all
possible speed and by the shortest roads to
Miles who has, doubtless, had hard fight
to-day, as five hundred Indians are re-
ported to have been in the band that
burned Cayuse station. 1t is undoubtedly
this same band that Miles, and perhaps
Throckmorton, are fighting to-day. We
have all the women and children aboard
the wharf-boat. No one here, however,
has any fears for personal safety, we are So
well fortified. Runners were sent out to
ascertain the whereabouts of the hostiles,
and report their appearance at o'clock
this evening. They have not yet returned.

SUNSTROKE AND COMA.
THE CONDITION OF THE SYSTEM EVERYTHING

THE CONDITION OF THE SYSTEM EVERYTHING.
One of our best known and oldest physi-
clans, speaking through the columns of the
Globe yesterday, said:
80 convinced am |, after thirty summers
that have treated the disease in this city,
of the injurious effects of alcoholic stimuli
ants, that can not recall one case of sun
stroke, where it was possible to get the cor
rect history, in which one of two conditions
had not existed The patients had been in
dulging freely in liquor, or had been suffer
ing under some diseased condition Of the
system most frequently malarial poison"
Then, according to this experience of
thirty years, if We can provide a preventive
from malarial poison, we will have about
solved the sunstroke affliction, now So
prevalent.
AT this season of the year there is a large
amount of malarial poison in the atmos.
phcre and the system is constantly absorb
ing it, Now that poison must be removed
or the patient is not only liable 10 sun
stroke, but also liable to malarial fever and
all its complications The Holman Pa
worn AS a preventive absorbs the poison
from the system as fast as the patient all.
serbs the poison from the atmosphere, it
therefore becomes us to say there are two
sure and reliable preventives for sunstroke.
The first, don't indulge in strong drink; the
other, don't fail to get Holman Pad an.
wear It continually during this excessively
heated term.
