SEATTLE, Washington, March 16.-
According to the steamer Excelsior
which arrived tonight from Copper riv-
er with 100 passengers, an epidemic of
scurvy is sapping the life of hundreds
of once sturdy men now in that coun-
try. Ten deaths have occurred in the
last three months and over fifty cases
that may result fatally are reported.
No portion of the country seems to
have escaped. River Valley is a great
hospital, where every settlement is a
ward for dying men. A partial list
of the dead includes the name of John
Rahr of Honolulu

rebellion altered this as a probability.
The traveller states that General
King is in fine health. His recent in

the old Indian fighter was off again

very much the death of Colonel Smith

Captain SaXton is domciled at the
