Major Guido Ilges Thinks Sitting Bull is
Getting Ready for Raid.

CHICAGO, June Under date of April 13tk,
Major Guido Ilges, commanding the Seventh
infantry at Fort Benton. informs military
headquarters here that hostile Sioux, Arapahoes,
Cheyennes and other Indians assembled at the
eastern corner of the Cypress mountains,
known as Sitting Bulls camp, contemplate an
early invasion south of the boundary line.
Major Ilges considers the situation serious.
Two thousand warriors, trusted by nobody in
that region, fully armed and equipped, defiant
and ready for fight, have caused him to move
his force to new place, better fitted for de-
Tense. Sitting Bull recently made rancorous
harangue, promising to return to the United
States when the grass grows and make the
soldiers weep. A grand war dance and muster
ing of tribes followed this speech.

ness the generosity with which the
Northern friends of this and the
other stricken populations of the
Southwest have come to the assis.
lance of the latter with donation of
money, and the promptitude with
which this has been done is also
worthy of notice. Nothing could
contribute more to the restoration

and has informed the nuncios that
q change of air IS necessary. The
Italian government, in response to
oVertures from the Vatican, reaf-
Trims its determination to maintain
the royal prerogative. The Va,i-
can has sent Mgr. Massela, papal
nunclo, proposals to oe submitted
to Prince Bismark regarding the
return of expelled bishops to their
dioceses. The Vatican would ac-
cept simple promise Of non-inter.
ference, and thinks the German
government might regard this as a
much less difficult concession than
a formal sanction.

EUCALYPTUS.

In these days OF febrile sickness
1t is we'll to know something about
the virtues Of tho fever tree for

tea made from the leaves of this
tree will Instantly bring on the
most profuse perspiration, and will
maintain it continuously until the
last vestige of fever is eliminated
from the system. Mr.. Phillip w.
D!elmaun, of Miller & Dielmann,
has been testing this tea in various
Kinds OF fever, and with uniform
and wonderful success in every
case. His experience leads him to
believe that the eucalyptus tea can
be made to render the most impor-
tant service in yellow fever, for
which he especially eommends it as
an agent superior to every other OF
its kind. He has raised on his
place a number of eucalyptus trees,
and will cheerfully give leaves to
any one who may desire them. He
has seen a case Of chill and fever
OF two years standing cured with
one cup Of this tea, any kind of de-
brlle disorder. IN. o. Pic.

has made its appearance in the following

cate that the disease is of a yirulent

Dr. oolf, who went from New Orleans
to Bayou des Allen ands, indicates that
the disease there is of a mild type. The

Rouge, up to II In. Thursday, vas to
the effect that about 80 cases were under
treatment and seven deaths had occur-
red.
So far as we have been able to ascer-
tain, the disease was introduced into
these several places, including those in
mississippi, by persons coming from in
tected districts. We are as vet unadvis-
ed of the local origin of the disease at auy
point in the country.
At the points mentioned in our last is.
sue as having the disease, it's virulence
is attested by the physicians who went
to the assistance of the people in those

the colored population, and is raging |

The plague holds sway in Vicllsburr
With great fury. At this writing, not
ess than 200 cases are under treatment.
Il that place, as in all others where the
disease has taken hold, its induction and
apld spread, are attributable to manifest
auses; tho want of a rigid quarantine, ,
M the bad sanitary condition. At the ,
utter point (Vicksburg) the rapid iu-
rease Of tho fever, and the extreme yir-
lence OF its type are conceded to be the +

ltlne measures. 1t is noteworthy and II
lportant fact, that places, as in the in
ances OF Bayou Sara and Natchez, that T
we preserved strict quarantine and
