A CITIZEN just up from New Tacoma
as fairly unbosomed himself to us.
He says the Puyallup coal mines
re all in the papers and no where
else; a complete fizzle. The coah
pany has not more than q dozen men
employed in and around the coal mine
department all told. Not cargo of
coal has ever, as yet, been shipped
from Tacoma, Notwithstanding all
the inflated reports which have been
sounded abroad. During the hop
picking and shipping season. q scan
ty business is kept Pickering on the
Valley Road for about fifteen miles
out from Tacoma. Our informant
assures Us that nothing short of new
coal discoveries or a road across the
mountains can possibly save the little
"city By the sea-"

Fokksr planting in France is en-
crossing the undivided attention of
agriculturalists, in way well calcu-
lated to spur American farmers to
greater efforts. Nurseries are es-
tablished for the special purpose Of
producing the best quality of seeds,
and from year to year large tracts Of
land ore regularly laid out, planted
and protected. by rigid laws, from
vandalism. Trees of both hard ana
soft woods are planted, with due
references to the most appropriate
locality for each species and variety.
One of tho most valuable gifts We
can give to posterity is country
full of magnificent forest trees.

Rev. VIM. Roberts, in q communi-

REV. VIM. Roberts, in q communi-
cation to the Adrocdfe, expresses a
very poor opinion of Mrs. Logan, as
a temperance lecturer. He says :
Zone of Mother Hills prayers and
simple talks, would be worth forty
such lectures. There is little to be
hoped for from those who advocate
temperance and ignore the Gospel
of Christ" Now, with all respect
for the reverend gentleman, weipro-
test against this wholesale denuncia-
ton of the work of many consistent
temperance men and women who
make no profession of religion. 1t
is unfair to measure everybody's
grain in the orthodox half-bushel.
We cannot all think alike, or act in
accordance with any given code of
principles; but there is much good
in the world, in the Church and out
Of it. The proper course, it appears
to US, would be to hold fast to that
Ahich is good, and discard the evil;

chat, and strictly render unto Cesar
the things which are Cesar's. Can
not anything good come out of Naz-

MUTINY AT MAGELLAN.
The Garrison at Sandy Point
Revolt and Take Possession.
Release Of the c0nyiets, Who Join In
the Work of Destruction
A Terrible Tale Of Wanion Killing, surnIng
and Piliaging.

Washington, Jan. 8.-Commander
Rogers. commanding the U. S. steamer
Adams, writes to the Secretary of the
Navy from Sandy Point, Straits of
Magellan, giving particulars of the
revolt Of the garrison there. The first
of the outbreak seems to have been
the murder Of captain Of company
of soldiers, numbering about one hun
dred, who were regular artillery troops.
They mutilated the captain in a most
horrible manner, and then opened fire
with artillery upon the governors
house. The governor on making his
appearance was knocked in the head
and left insensible. He however re-
covered after some time, and made his
escape. His family also escaped, al
most naked, to the woods. The mutt
neers then released the convicts, and
altogether numbered nearly 200 men,
armed with rifles.
The following day the mutineers
committed most incredible excesses, in
the way Of wanton killing, burning
and sacking. The next day the mutt
neers deserted the place, carrying off
all the public funds and much private
property. They burned all the public
property and number Of stores. In
fact, the best part of the town is in
ashes. The streets were strewn with
the dead bodies of the killed. Most of
the killed were soldiers, who had been
shooting themselves indiscriminately.
1t is estimated that at least fifty people
were killed. Many dead and wounded
were burned in the buildings The
hospital was burned with five men
in it.
Commander Rogers says it was the
intention of the mutineers to capture
the steamer Memphis, soon expected,
but as her commander had previous
notice of the revolt, he seized the
soldiers, convicts and the captain of
the port, who rowed out to him, sug-
gesting fine anchorage under the guns
of the fort. He then went to sea and,
meeting with the U. S. steamer
Adams, reported the condition Of af-
fairs. Commander Rogers took the
mutineers on board of his vessel and
fastened to Sandy Point, where his
presence was much appreciated by the
Chilian authorities.
AS to the cause of the revolt, there
seems to be no reliable information.
1t is reported and believed that the
padre or priest of this colony has had
much to do in instigating it, he being
an enemy of the government, and he is
now one of the prisoners confined on
board the Chilian steamer Magellenes.
In the destruction of property not the
slightest regard was paid to any nation
ality. A 12-pound shot was fired clear
through the English consulate, and
the vice-consul himself was pursued
and fired at number of times. How
ever. he escaped in his own boat,

ILLINOIS.


Chicago, Jan S.--Most people here
are losing faith in the prospect for a
Stock Mining Board. Last nights
meeting was destitute of actual results,
and was adjourned for week. 1t is
said that the character of one or two
men who seem most interested in it is
enough to condemn it and to secure
general opposition to its establishment.
New York and western agents have
been active in getting it on foot, but
their efforts appear to be fruitless. 1t
is charged that it will be established, If
at all, simply for stock gambling, and
not for legitimate business.

GEN. JOHN O'NEIL, formerly
prominent Fenian leader, died at Oma
la Monday night. He was in COM
mand of the Fenian forces at the bat
tie of Ridgeway, near Fort Erie, Ont,
in June, 1866, in which he put to rout
the Queens Own, of Toronto, and
gained the only laurels that have so
far crowned the efforts Of Irish Ma
tionalists to obtain a foothold in Cana
da. He was brave and skillful SOL
dier, having gained an enviable reputa-
tion in the battles Of his adopted
country during the late civil war.
Gen. O'Neil was a man of generous
impulse, whose ruling passion through
life was love of country. Of late years
he had devoted his efforts to advancing
the condition of his countrymen, and
he leaves two or three tlourishing colo
nies in this country as monuments of
his success. His death leaves a vacan-
cy in the front rank of the 1. R. A.
not easily filled.

Washington, Jan. s.-Montgomery
Blair, now a member Of the Maryland
legislature, has introduced for adoption
in that body memorial to Congress
asking for legislation to ascertain ju-
dicially who was elected President Of
the United States at the recent cleo
tion, and to give effect to the will of
the people. The memorial is short,
sharp and foolish. 1t claims that the
act establishing the electoral commits
sion, provided that no decision under
it should prevent a judicial decision of
the question, and attributes the result
in favor of Hayes for the Presidency
from the disputed states to Texas
Pacific railroad subsidy bargain.
