morning with Dougherty ambulance,
one or two buckboards and wagon load
of provisions, on Middleton's trail to meet
the prisoners. This evening a courier re-
turned to Middleton from Bedson with
dispatches dated 5 p. M, twenty miles
from Pitt, and stating he had met Hodgson,
oneiof Big Bears prisoners, who told him
twenty-one prisoners were on the way to
Fort Pitt, destitute of provisions and
badly off for clothing. Tt appears that the
Wood Crees and Plain Crees separated
yesterday as wired, Big Hunter, chief of
the former, saying his braves could fight
Big Bears men, if necessary, without guns
but could not nor would not fight with
white men. Big Bear and party went
toward Turtle Lake. and in this direction
firing day before yesterday. This is inn
probable; but if true, must have been from
Otter, who to-day sends a courier, saying
he has captured a party of Salteau, not
Crees, as reported yesterday, under Yellow
Sky. Big Bear allowed Big Hunter and
party with prisoners to go unmolested
Probably he was tired of them, and they
started for Cold lake thirteen miles north
OF Beaver river, where Strange is camped
Big Hunter and people were glad to let the
prisoners go, and gave them six ponies and
an OK, with such provisions as they could
possibly spare, unfortunately not much,
the Cold lake caches being taken by
Strange. Bedson's known energy leads to
the belief that he will push on and meet
the prisoners tonight, and they are all
likely to be in here tomorrow.
Big Bear is reported to have sent the fol-
lowing message to Middleton: You
brought4 1000 troops into this country. You
did nothing yet. give you four days to
leave. For those of your men don't kill,
MOSQUITOES and bulldogs will You can't
reach me.

have several thousand dollars safely

THE NEW ENGLISH MINISTRY.
Queen Victoria threw her influence into
the scale in the formation of the new min
istry. The Marquis Of Salisbury declined
to form new cabinet unless the liberals,
under the lead of Gladstone, would agree
to work in harmony with the conserva-
tives In view of the fact that the conserva-
tives and radicals had just overthrow the
liberals such demand was substantially
equivalent to declining to accept power.
Mr.. Gladstone promised to use his influence
with the liberals to prevent factious oppo-
istion and at the queens urgent request the
Marquis Of Salisbury decided to accept that
pledge and the following cabinet is an
nounced.

GEN. GRANTS CONDITION.

The result of DR.. Sands consultation
With DR.. Douglass was that while there
is no possible hope for recovery they do
not regard Gen. Grants immediate death
as probable. This was borne out by DR..
Sands returning to New York after the
consultation.
On the Goth Gen. Grant was more com
Portable and was able to speak a few words.

The operation has been successfully
accomplished by German chemist of
separating rags of cotton and wool
mixed by subjecting them to the action
of a jet of superheated steam. Under
a pressure OF five atmospheres the wool
melts and sinks to the bottom of the
receptacle, while cotton, linen, and
other vegetable fbres stand, thus re-
manning suitable for paper manufacture.
The liquid mud which contains the
wool precipitated by this means is then
desiccated; the residue, to which is
given the name of azotine, is completely
soluble in water, and is valuable on
account of its nitrogen. The increased
value of the pulp free from wool is suf-
ticient to cover the cost of the process.

The grandson of Goethe, who died
recently at Leipzig at the age of 6S
years, was the last male descendant of
the poet, and for many years had been
living at his well known residence
at Weimar. Walter Goethe was dis
tinguished musician, and particular
favorite of Mendelssohn, whose pupil
he had been in his youth. Many a
happy hour used Mendelssohn and he
to pass together, and deep was Walter
Goethe's grief when his old master
died. Among many other extremely
interesting relics of his grandfather,
he possessed, and used to keep jealous
ly hidden away, number of Goethe's
posthumous writings. These it is ex-
pected, will now shortly be printed,
together with several hitherto unpub-
lished letters of the poet to various
friends.

ranches in Texas, was the only child of
George .Adair Of Belgrove, in the
Queens county, Ireland, which name
he changed after his fathers death to
Rathdaire. He inherited very large es-
tates from his father, and acquired con-
siderable noteriety by his dispossession
from his Gleanveagh property in
Donegal of a large body Of tenantry,
who refused to give information about
the murder of herd of his, and who all
came to this country. He was very
daring and determined in carrying out
this eviction, and refused police pro-
lection, though his life was threatened
and for some time in danger. He es-
sayed once or twice to get into Parlia-
ment as Liberal, without success. He
married Mrs. Richie, the daughter of
the late Gen. Wadsworth, whom he
met when on visit to the Marquis of
Drogheda, whose estates adjoin his,
and was thus brought into connection
with this country, in which he made
large and very profitable investments
in Colorado and Texas. He has left
no children, so that his large estates
and wealth will probably be willed to
his wife.

A Help to Good Digestion.

nthe British Medical Journal DR.. w
Roberts, Of England, discusses the effect
Of liquors, tea, coffee and cocoa on di.
gestion. All Of them retard tf,echemi.
cal processes, but most of them slim.
ulate the glandular activity and mus
cular contractions. Distilled spirits
retard the sallvary or peptic digestion
but slightly when sparingly used.
Wines were found to be highly iniur-
ious TO saliyary digestion. On peptic
digestion oil wines exert retardinrin-
iuence. They stimulate theglandular
and muscular activity ofthe stomach.
Effervescent wines exert the greatest
amount of good with the least harm
to digestion. When ones digestion
is out Of order everything goes awry,
unless, as in the case of Il. T. Seals. OF
Bellaire, Ohio, who had bad dyspepsia
for seven years, the digestive appara-
tus is kept in apple-pie eating orderb by
Warmers T~ippecanoe the best appe-
tite producer and regulator in the
world.
Tea, even in minute quantities, COM
pletely parelyzes the action of the
SALIVA. The tannin in strong tea is
injurious. Weak tea should be used.
if at all. Strong coffee and cocoa are
also injurious if used in excess.-Thc

sufficiently juicy. The meat, suet,
apples, and raisins must be chopped
as line as possible, and the citron cut
INTO small thin bits. All bits of skin
and gristle must be carefully removed
from the beef and suet, and the suet
especially must be minced to apowder.
To insure the spices being evenly
distributed, mix them with dry sugar,
then mix sugar and meat together be-
fore adding the rest of the ingredients
Mix all together thoroughly. and set
owe the fire until heated through.
Pumpkin for pies should be fine
grained and have a deep rich color. II
squash is used in place OF pumpkin,
the pies will have q much richer flavor
than if made out of the vegetable by
whose name they are called.
Peel and cut the squash or pump
kin into long strips, and steam until
tender; then put through a fine sieve.
For each pie allow one egg, half a cup
full OF squash, one cupful OF boiling
milk, two-teaspoonfuls of sugar, and
a quarter of q teaspoonful each OF
nutmeg and cinnamon. Beattogether
the squash, sugar, egg, and spice; then
pour on the boiling milk, stirring
quickly all the time.
Cranberries should always be served
with roast turkey. They are much
better when prepared as follows than
when stewed in the ordinary way:
Put them OH the fire in a large kettle
with cold water sufficient to cover
them well, cover closely, and stew
until tender; then put through sieve
to remove the skins, return to the fire,
and add enough sugar to taste. Re-
move from the fire as soon as the sug-
ar is thoroughly dissolved, which, UNI
less 1t is in Jumps, will be as soon as
the fruit boils.
