Troops Needed.

CnrcAGo, August Is. Los Vegas, New
Mexico advices of the 18th, states that news
reached that city last night, that the Apaches
had swooped down small Mexican viii
lage, eighteen miles from Rio Purco, on the
Atlantic i Pacific Railway. and murdered
twenty seven out of twenty-nin inhabitants.
The two MeNicans made good their escape,
and were nearly exhausted when they
reached the railroad. and had their horses
shot from under them before getting out Of
reach of the Indians.
The Apaches completely surrounded them
making the escape of the doomed inhabitants
impossible. The track of the Indians on
their outward march through the wilderness
was continually marked with murder and
bloodshed, and the citizens of this section
demand that the government put large
force of troops in the field Immediately and
wipe the red devils who are committing such
terrible slaughter and atrocities among the
whites and Mexicans.
SANTA Fgs August Is. Charles s. Cough

the report that he was attacked by seven
Apaches sixteen miles from here on the

We do not often make any editorial mention
of the proprietary medicines advertised in
our columns, but we believe it to be a duty
we owe to our readers to call their attention
to the advertisement of DR.. j. c. Ayers Ague
Cure which appears in this issue of our paper.
We know from sad experience that nothing
is more disheartening than the insidious ap-
proaches and periodical attacks of malarial
and miasmatic disorders. The remedy pre-
pared by DIR. Aver & Co. has been in use
many years, and has proved a positive
antidote for disorders Of this nature. It is,
withal, a safe and harmless one to take being
composed entirely Of vegetable ingredients,
without either quinine or minerals. unlike
other so-called Ague Cures, and consequently
incapable of producing the deplorable effects
which follow the use Of these drugs Our
Western people owe debt of gratitude to
DR.. Aver for tine production of this valuable
medicine. Its timely use will save much
suffering, and We recommend it with the
greatest confidence in its ability to do all
that is promised for it.-Ahins, Ark. Ners

Midnight.

The anxiety regarding the condition Of the
President. which became apparent through
out the city soon after the issue OF the morn
ing bulletin, grew in intensity as the unfav-
orable indications of pulse and temperature
became the subject of speculation with con-
stantly increasing number of persons. Per
sistent irritability of the stomach noted IN the
bulletins, was new phase in the condition
of the patient, which perplexed and added to
the anxiety of some, and lessened hopes OF
the most sangnine assurances which came
later direct from the physicians, to the ef-
feet that they did not feel alarmed at the
presence of nausea and vomiting; nor IN fact
the general condition of the President in the
morning did dot suffice to allay the feelings
of uneasiness which prevailed throughout the
city. This anxiety was lessened but little, If
any, by the noon bulletin, which, although
reporting a cessation of nausea and
decline of temperature, still recorded
a more frequent pulse. The decrease Of
temperature was expected as result of the
diurnal fever. The ebb and figures record
ed werereassuring only to the NEST sangulne
The more rapid pulse reported in the noon
bulletin caused a change in the feelings of
many from that of extreme anxiety to posi-
tive alarm, Notwithstanding the assurances,
which came from the Executive Mansion that
the unfav symptoms we're out Temp
orary. When the evening bulletin made its
appearance continuing the information that
irritability of the stomach had returned. that
the President had vomited three times since
| 2. NJ, together with admission that his
condition on the whole was less satisfactory,
the feeling among those who have watched
the progress of the case closely from the
beginning, was apparently that of greater
anxiety and alarm than they had evinced
since the Sunday following the day on which
the President received his wound.

the largest amount ever issued. The pro-

pended largely upon the number Of
places OF deposit which it contained. In
this country. in 1880, there were $3.50
banks and bankers distributed throughout
all its principal cities and villages.
and the number Of checks and drafts
in daily use was greater than any

quantity OF currency to supply the wants of

have reached, and we trust the country
