and putting in the backing. There were
delivered o., ,637 feet of cut StOhe, about
One-fitth of all required, ami 1888 Gu

Struciing Of the locks. The banks of The

against any sudden rise and overflowing,

Tract for dredging az the head OF the Gu

WASHINGTON. June 26.-The Potter
committee today questioned Ex Marshal
Pltkln upon the method Of employing
deputy marshal; Pitkin said he always
believed in the legality of the Packard
legislature, and was of the opinion the
Packard government could have sustained
itself within three weeks after recognition
by the administration without the aid OF
the federal troops.
Witness narrated statement made to
him by George Swasey of conference of
the members of the Packard legislature
and the members of the McVeagh COM
mission immediately preceding the with,
drawal of the troops and the recognition of
the Nichols government. The examina-
ton continued at length upon the acts OF
McN eagh commission, and Butler requested
that Packard be subp9naed to appear be-
fore leaving the country. Hiscock and
Cox said the minority of the committee
were disposed to accept the testimony OF
Pltkin in regard to affairs in Louisiana,
and suggested additional witness would
accumulate evidence and delay the pro
gress of the Investigation. Daring the
discussion Butler remarked he wanted the

SAN Francisco. June 26.-Portland dis
patch: The latest news from Chief Moses is
to the effect that be has l,500 warriors, we'll
armed and desperate. A large part of his
band is composed of renegades from other
tribes. The Indians on the reservation
sympathize with Moses. with but few ex-
ceptions, and in case of an outbreak Moses
would be reinforced by 400 or 500 reserva-
ton indians. IF this should be the case it
would take 10000 troops to capture him.
Silver City dispatch: The assault made
by Bernard upon the Indians was a sur
prise to the savages, about forty of whom
were killed. The soldiers were very cool
in the charge. The Indian force present
was estimated at 700, but probably was
not 20 large. The Indians retreated to
their stronghold in Stein mountains.
Howard. with the forces at his personal
command. is making forty-6ve miles q day
and will effect a junction with Bernard to,
night. Ii is estimated that the whole force
of savage warriors numbers 1900. The
Indians will be pursued AM. there is every
prospect Of protracted campaign.

WASHINGTON, June &c The Assistant
Attorney General for the Postofice
Department has had under consideration
the question as to whether road that has
been established as a mail route can be
closed by the local authorities of country,
and has decided that the question of
highways is to be determined by the
authorities of the state; that establishment
OF post route simply means the designation
of such highways are already in existence
aud the duty does not therefore devolve
upon the government of either opening
roads or keeping roads open.

SEA WEED Tonic AND MANDRAKE PILIs.-Ihese
medicines have undoubtedly performed more cures
Of Consumption than any other remedy known to
the American public. They are compounded Of
vegetable ingredients, and cortaln nothing which
can be Injurious to the human constitution. Other
remedses advertised cures for Consumption,
probably contain opium, which is somewhat dan
garous drug in all cases. and If taken freely by
consumptive patients, II must do great injury; for
Its tendency is to conine the morbid matter in the
system which, of course, must make cure impos-
sible Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is warranted
not to contain particle of opium; it is composed
OF powerful but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungs liver. stomach, and blood, and thus correct
all morbid secretions, and expel all the diseased
matter from the body. These are the OILY means
by which Consumption can be cured, and as
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which op-
crate in this way. it is obvious that they are the
only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consumption
! Each bottle of this invaluable medicine is accom-
panied by full directions. DR.. Schenck s profes-
