COL. FoRTYTH's REPORT.
WASHINGTON, April 25.--Lieut. Gen.
Sheridan forwards to Adjutant General
Drum, Col. Forsyth's account of his
encounter with Indians in New Mex
leo:
DRY CAMP, on the road between Lords
burg and Richmond. April 24.-To
Ger. Mckenzie, Fort Craig: Started for
Richmond this morning at daylight.
Ordered Lieut.. Mcdonald with six In
dian scouts to scout my left and pro-
ceeded to cross the Gila. When about
twc-thirds across, one of the Indians
announced to me that four of the scouts
were killed by large number of Chira-
huahuas, and that Lieut. Mcdonald and
the other two were defending them
selves against them. l galloped for
sixteen miles to them, and found the
Indians strongly entrencned in Stems
peak range, attacked them at once and
drove them from their entrenched po-
sition. They fell back and occupied
two impregnable positions, which were
from six to eighteen feet high; found it
impossible to dislodge them without
great loss. l gave up further opera
tons at 5 o'clock and started for Rich
mond. My loss was four Indian scouts
and one private of troop G killed; one
sergeant and four privates wounded.
l know for certainty that two
of the enemy were killed and
number wounded. Captured and killed
thirteen head of their stock. l have
just met Mr.. Fenton on the main road
between Lordsburg and Richmond,
who will take this dispatch to Lords
burg. | am compelled to 60 to ella
river at Richmond for water for the
animals. l will take up trail and will
try and get these Indians in an open
country on which hope to give more
favorable report. The number of In
dams fought to-day are between 60
and 100. 1t was impossible to do more
under the circumstances.
Col. FORSYTH.

THE mining fever has ragged furious
ly in Amherst. Mass, and its victims
include the shrewdest trade and pro-
fessional men in town. The source OF
infection was Col. William S. Clark,
late president of the Agricultural Col
lege, who is regarded rs honestly be-
lieving in the schemes which he in
duced his townsmen to engage in. The
amount actually invested by Amherst
men in nearly worthless mines Is
placed at 100000, which is n large
sum for place of that size. The bu5-
Bile has now burst, and the colonel Is
now being sued.

Facts for Tourists and Emigrants.

Whether fer the tourist, lent on pleasure or
business, or the emigrant seeking far western
home, Hostetters Stomach Bitters is the best pro-
tector against the hurtiul influences of climatic
changes or malaria, the most reliable medicine
for general use he can possibly carry with him. 1t
nuhfes the effect OF sudden changes of tempera-
ture, braces the system against the enfeebling in
fuence of excessive heat prevents injurious con-
food water, is fine resistant of physical
energy diminished by the fatigue of travelling,
and tends to counteract the effects of exposure in
rough weather. 1t is much and servceably used
by mariners and Others whose outdoor life and
srduous labor expose them unusually. II is
moreover Of great service Ms a preventive and
curative of disorders of the stomach liver bowels,
and as general tonic.

Mr.. Johns came to hotel ia Bis
mark with cheap looking trunk,
worth about 81. The clerk sized hin
up and gave him back room. just
under the roof, with dormer window,
camp bed and tin basin for furni-
ture. The porter snubbed him, and
he was the last man waited on at the
table, and was always seated where he
couldn't reach the bread and the cas-
tor. He wen. away on business, was
gone six weeks, and left his room door
open. And then when he came back
and opened that old trunk and took
49, 900 in gold out of 1t, .he landlord
pulled his hair for modification, and
got roaring drunk for five days, the
clerk forgot to paste down his front
hair, and went one whole day without
changing his eight inch cuffs, and the
porter went off in the woods and lay
down and died. Moral; Never disdain
to go through a trunk because it looks
cheap. You cant tell what it may
contain.

Sod Manul'inS.

EayedeM Adre,1ise,: Years ago
the Genesee Valley, the finest wheat
section OF New York, began to fail in
wheat even though leriillzed by all
formulas. The remedy was found in
sod manuring. Clover was planted, 4,
sod grown, super phosphate used,
and wheat grown again. The writer
has experienced the same thing here,
using sud manure for cotton and the
cereals. 1t is more profitable where
land is cheap, labor and fertilizers
being high. Mr.. VIM. Walton. Of
Meeting Street, S. G., told the writer
OF his success in sod manurlng, which
is wonderful. Paradoxical as it may
appear, MIR. Walton is meeting with
more success by raising grass and
weeds to make crops than others are
by destroying grass and weeds to
reach the same end. II, is invertin5
