An exchange says the following is a
sure cure for snake bite: "Take one
teaspoonful of gunpowder and salt and
the yellow of an egg, ami mix so as to
form a plaster, place on a cloth and ap
ply to the wound. As the poison is
drawn the plaster will lose its sticking
qualities, and when it is full it will
fall off. Apply a new plaster until it
sticks, which is sure evidence that the
loison is out. This will cure a snake
bite on either man or beast." .
Kansas City is loadinsabarge with
grain, and the Mail is going crazy over
it. -It means," says tluit enthusiastic
journal, "that Kansas City shall bee. me
the great entrepot for the immense
grain fields of Western Missouri, Kan

granaries of the finest farming coun
try in the United States will pay trib
ute to Kansas City. It means that
soon will spring up at the mouth of
the Xaw the largest inland grain mar
ket in the world." If one tow of barg

Important to School Ofiiecrs.
Lincoln. June 26, 1S73.
Editor of State Journal : From
various quarters information is sent to
this otlice that parties are engaged in
selling to the school district- a set of
mathematical charts, of very doubtful
value, and at an exorbitant price,
school officers are cautioned against
buying articles of this kind without
consulting the County Superintendent.
In no ease 6hou!d warrants or school
orders be given for goods till the goods
are received. They are also reminded
that it is illegal to make individual
contracts with agents. All such busi
ness should be done at the meetings of
the board. County Superintendents
are requested to bring this to the at
tention of School Boards.
S. 11. TnoMPsox,
State Superintendent.
Newspapers throughout the State are
' setTuested to give thi3 notice publicity.
How to Make a Good School.
To the Patrons of Schools in Cans Co.:
First. Get a good teacher.
Second. Try to encourage your
te.acher, which may be done in various
ways, viz: Paying him a salary that
will induce him to work, speaking a i
word of encouragement to him now j
and then, visiting his school now and
then, thii3 showing that you are inter
ested in both him and the school.
Third. Remember that "Children
and fools" do not "Always tell the
truth," especially in regard to them
selves; and when your children come
home, with doleful tales, of abuse and
neglect, don't run poste haste to the
directors to demand his dismissal; but
go to the school and ascertain the
truth of the matter first; and then, if
there is just cause for dismissal, try
and have him dismissed by all means.
Fourth. As your thoughts and ac
tion will correspond, never think of
your teacher as an enemy to you, and
a friend only, to your pocket book, as
a good-for-nothing fellow trying to get
a living without work, for "As a man
thinketh in hi3 heart so is he."
The above directions well followed
will give you a first class school. More
anon. Yours respectfully,
A. Teacher.
PAYMENT FOR SLAVES DEMANDED.
Repeal of the Fourteenth Amendment
to be Pressed.
The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph and Mes
senger calls for the repeal of the Four
teenth amendment, that the southern
people may extort payment for their
liberated slaves. It says: "These slaves
were not cannon and bayonets and
armed foes in the late so-called rebel
lion, and in no sense 'contraband.' They
were our property, solemnly and spe
cifically recognized as such, and pro
tected and guaranteed by that constitu
tion and Union which our adversaries
alleged they took up arms to maintain
intact and defend. Moreover they took
no part in that fratricidal struggle,
save when forced to join the ranks of
the invader, and wage war against
their best friend and benefactors. On
the banditti principle that'niight makes
right,' and to the 'victor belongs the
spoils,' onlv, therefore, can this robbery
of an impoverished people be justified."
Again: "We cannot but indulge the
hof.e that when we have helped to ex
tinguish the public debt, and time has
healed the gaping wounds of the past,
when reason and brotherly love shall
have regained the ascendency over
prejudice and hate even though it shall
be the next generation, a bravo and
honorable people of the-same blood and
lineage will see to it that the value of
our property in slaves shall be return
ed to those from whom it was wrong
fully wrested. It will do no harm to
keep this question before the people,
that they may preserve the records and
the proper memoranda of their former
slaves, in the event that a returning
sense of justice on the part of the fed
eral government may compensate them,
at least in part, for the loss of this por
tion of their rightful property."

The Early Rising Dclnsion.
For farmers and those who live in
localities where people can retire at
eight or nine o'clock in the evening,
the old notion about early-rising is still
appropriate. But he who is kept up
till ten or eleven or twtlve o'clock, and
then rises at five or six, because of the
teachings of some old ditty about "ear
ly to rise," is committing a sin against
his own soul. There is not one man
in ten thousand who can affoid to do
without seven or eight hours' sleep
All the stuff written about great men
who slept only three or four hours a
i night is apocryphal. They have been
put upon such small allowances occa
sionally and prospered; but no man
yet ever kept healthy in body and mind
for .i number of years with less than
seven houis' sleep. If you can get to
bed early, then rise early ; if you c:n-
j not get to bed till late, then rise late,
j It may be as proper for one man to
rise at eight as it is for another to rise
at five. Let the rousing bell be rung
by at least thirty minutes before your
publio appearance. Physicians say
that a sudden jump out of bed gives ir
regular motion to the pulses. It takes
hours to get over a too sudden rising.
It is barbarous to expect children to
land on the centre of the lloor at the
call of their nurses, the thermometer
below zero. Give us time after you
call us to roll over, caze at the world
full in the face, and look before we
leap.
The Washinton Star says two hope
ful indications of a turn in tho bus
iness depression are noticed: first, the
buoyancy in tin? stock market and the
corresponding increase in the value of
railroad property, which rises and falls
in accordance with the barometer of
business activity in the couutry; and
second, the unmistakable confidence
given to capitalists disposed to invest
in business operations, by the fact that
congress has adjourned and will not
be able to pass any legisltion for some
time to unsettle values. It is believed
ttait a good deal of money now
lying idle, or virtually so, will
now bo put into circulation in the
channels of trade and business enter
prise, with happy effect in the line of
a revival of prosperity.
It is a part of the military annals of
our frontier that way out in the Rocky
Mountains during one of the Indian
campaigns, the ingenuity of the artil
lery officers was taxed to find some
way of getting at the red men with
the howitzers. The Indians would
stand before small arms, but a shot
from a six pounder, if it could get the
range, always caused them to stampede.
Finally one of the officers, we don't re
member if it was Capt. John Phoenix,
or another genious, invented the "Jack
ass battery." A howitzer was securely
strapped to the back of one of these
sure-looted and docile animals, and the
entire command went out to witness
the experiment. They led him up to
the top of a small mountain, placed
ed him in position, with his tail over a
precipice, took aim, fired the fuse, and
stood around watching to see the re
suit. Just as the fuse commenced to
burn, the donkey got curious
to see what they were all looking at
and he commenced to revolve on his
axis. The circle around him began to
disperse into holes and behind rocks in
a very sudden and bewildering manner,
and he wheeled and turned in every di
rection, aiming his gun at every possi
ble point of the compass each consecu
tive second, and when it went olf, the
shot grazed the ear of the distiugush
ed inventor of the new arm of the
service.
Senator Kellogg remarked that Ben
Butler, whom the democrats put on the
Potter committee, with a broad grin at
the supposed execution he was going to
do upon the administration, is a "Jack
ass battery." No better discription is,
perhaps, possible. State Journal.
Alex. !1. Stephens.
Augusta, June 20. Alex. II. Ste
phens, in a speech here to-night, an
swering the charges that he had be
trayed and deserted the democratic
party said that his course in the Pot
ter resolution had been vindicated by
democrats, under the lead of Bucha:d,
the republicans, adopting the very
modifications which lie had advocated
when the questions of investigation
was sprung. He believed there were
frauds in the presidential election, but
he really thought that a rotten egg had
better be buried than broken, .since
it was opened, however, he favored
making the investigation broad, and
on both sides. If the republicans re
torted to our taunts by saying, "You,
too, had stolen goods," he wished to
incorporate the declaration that the
president's title could not be disturb
ed. If this question be reopened now
he saw danger ahead. Causes more
venomous than in 1S00 were at work,
and the war that would follow would
be as a cyclone compared to tiie civil
war breezo just blown over. Th it
was organized and sectioned warfare;
this would be a cutthroat and commun
istic war. The country wanted peace.
The south desired good government,
and was getting mere from Hayes than
it would have liono from Tilden. If
the district democratic convention
about to assemble repudiated him on
account of his course, he would appeai
to the people over their heads. He
would not be ruled out of the house- of
his fathers' home by thimble riggers
and shysters.
In regard to the alleged insult to the
district democracy, he had nothing to
take back. He did not eat his words.
He belonged to the JelTeisonian school
of democracy, and did not . submit to
the party lash or caucus lasso of Ja
cobinism. In these principles he was
reared and in this temple he would die.
The Transfer of the Indian Bureau.
New Yolk Herald.
In the bill making appropriations for
the arm' for the fiscal year ending
J une "30, 187!), there is a section provid
ing for the formation of a joint com
mission to consider the feasibility of
removing the Indian bureau to tho
war department. This commission
consists of three Senators and five
members of the House. They have
power to sit during the recess, send for
persons and papers, examine witness
es, visit the Indian country, and, in
fact, to do all in their power to airive
at a truthful solution of this vexed
question.
The commission consists of Senators
Saunders, of Neoraska. Oglesby, of Il
linois, and McCrary of Kentucky, and
Messrs. Scales, of North Carolina;
Boone, of Kentucky; Hooker, of Miss
issippi; Stewanl, of Minnesota, and
Van Vooihees, of Ohi. They have
perfected an organization by the selec
lion of Senator Saunders as chairman
and Major Charles Flanagan as secre
tary of the coar.uissiok.. The secreta
ries of the War and Interior hive re
ceived a number of letle:s from the
commission asking for data, statistics
and all genera! information on the very
important subject left for the commis
sion to decide. A number of clerks of
tho-ie respective departments are busy
at work preparing the answers for the
commission.
As this is a question so fraught with
interest to the entire couutry it can be
stated that all persons who desire to
send data to the commission or who
have ar.y information to convey on
the subject, can do so by transmitting
their communications to Major 1 lana
gan, secretary, or the joint commission
United States Senate Chamber.
Senator Saunders, the chairman of
the commission, is a Kentuckian by
birth, but has for nearly half a century
lived in the northwest, lie is said to be
one of the best posted men on the In
dian question in the country, and is
unbiased on the question to be decided
by the commission. He has been Gov
ernor of Nebraska, and is now serving
his first term in the Seriate. The oth
er members of the commission are all
more cr less well versed on Indian affairs.
LATEST TELEGRAPHIC.
THE BERLIN CONGRESS.
Gortschakoff Will Attend To-day's
Sitting What Russia Asks.
London, Juno 2'J. A Berlin Dis
patch states that Prince Gortschakuff
will attend Friday's sitting of the Con
gress. It is understood that Russia claims
no influence, even on the Danube. The
pourparlers seem to show that the Bes
arabian question is so arranged that
Russia only claims territory as far as
the Killa mouth of the Danube.
Berlin, June 27. The report cur
rent in diplomatic circles confirm the
statement that the Austrian occupa
tion of Bosnia is imminent. It is stat
ed that till three days ao the proposal
for the occupation of Bosnia and Herze
govina by Austrian troops was entire
ly disapproved by the congress.
Vienna, June 27. The Presse says:
"Roumania having refused a large
money indemnity lor the retrocession
of Bessaraba, and, having also refused
the proposal to divide Bessaraba in two
parts, itussia now proposes, through
Bismarck, that Prince Charles shall
become the future prince of Bulgaria.
This is opposed by Roumanian states
men, but they express a fear Prince
Charles will accept the offer for dynas
tic reasons."
London, June 27. A Berlin dispatch
says the delegates from Bosnia have
submitted to the congress a memorial
setting forth the wishes of their coun
trymen. Among other things the
memorial declares that Bosnians ob
ject to the prospect of Austrian occu
pation, and intimate that they would
prefer occupation of tho com. try by
Servians.
Vienna, June 27. A Berlin corre
spondent says the pourparlers between
the Austrian and Turkish plenipoten
tiaries relative to Bosnia and Herzogo
vinia cause an expectation that the
Turks may, when this subject is dis
cussed by the congress, abandon the
reserve which they have hitherto irai:i
tained. London, June 23. A Berlin corre
spondent states thai there will be no
reassembling of the congress in t he au
tumn, as it is intended to settle every
thing definitely now, and merely leave
deiails to special commissions.
Greece will refuse to participate in
the congress in merely a consulative
capacity.
'The correspondent states that the
memorial of the Bosnian delegates will
only accelerate Austrian occupation of
Bosnia as a counterpoise of Russia's
occupation of Bulgaria.
London, June 2S. A dispatch from
Berlin states that the queen of Eng
land was informed on Wednesday thai
the congrets would probably end in
ten days.
Prime Bismarck declared that he
should be obliged by fatigue to a'osenl
himself for a long time trout the con
gress unless the delegates were resolv
ed to come to an agreement privately
oil the main questions, t;o as to permit
their prompt hftt'i i:v.nt in the con
gress, minor matters being left to com
missions. Count Corti, the Italian del
egate, replied promising compliance
with the suggestion.
He was far too v.ti! aware of the
feelings which actuated his colleagues
to raise objection to concessions they
deemed it their di:ty to make, lie
merely wi.-.hed to ;tate that Russia
made those saeiifntvs from a desire
for peaee, and that she had no uariow
or seitWi aim.
Lord Beaeonsiiel 1 expresses admira
tion at Prince Gorise'iakoi'f's senti
ments. He acknowledged in the name
of the congress that a desiie for peace
actuated Russia, and hoped the same
sentiment would continue.
It is thought this is ("ortschakoff's
last appearance at the congress.
London, June 2"3. A Benin dispatch
says the Austrian plenipotentiaries
will propose in Friday's sitting of the
congress to occupy Bosnia ahd Iferze
goviuia. They will pledge themselves
to evacuate the provinces under certain
conditions, which, however, are incapa
ble of fulfillment.
The Ii.liaa Hostilities.
San Francisco, June 2Sth.-A Port
land dispatch says: The following in
structions to Gen. Wheatou have been
received at military lr.-adquarters here
and forwarded to that oliieer:
Silver Creek, Oregon, June 20. The
hostile increase as they advance. At
the beginning of the outbreak the Ban
nocks formed a junction with discon
tented Indians north of them, and with
the Piutes under Otis and Lagan near
Juniper Lane. Some Klamaths have
joined them here. Some Umadillas have
been endeavoring to form a junction.
Some have succeeded and are with them
Gen. Howard is of the opinion the hos
tiles intend to move north, following
Silver Creek, and striking the nearest
route to t he south fork of John Day
river; then up Granite creek to Bridge
creek, joining the discontented Cay uses
and other Indians as may be in that
vicinity. To provide for this contin
gency, G rover will be sent at once to
Walla Walla. The companies of caval
ry in the district of Clear Wafer and
those now under Major San ford will
constitute this command in the field
L D, II, F, and M companies total 210.
with such additions of infantry and
cavalry as the district commander
may judge proper to assign. Major
Svinf":d, with D and I companies,
will halt near Malheur City and go in
to camp on Widow creek until the
probabilities of the Indians going
north is determined. If the Indians
move north San ford w ill move his
command and join G rover. Bendire
will come forward at once with the
infantry and artillery battallions now
coming forward. Gen. Howard for
tiie present will remain with tins col
umn, consisting of four companies of
cavalry, two of artillery, and seven of
infantry, total 4S0 men", and will fol
low right after the enemy which ever
way he may go. The Umadillas in
Fox valley are said to have sent their
women and children to the reservation
and threaten to join the hostiles.

Fov.t Sill. Indian Tehritouy,
June 2S. Deputy United States Mar
shal Meershon, of Fort Smith, Arkan
sas, came here after two indiaus who
were confined with a number of others
on the Indian farm, three miles from
here. The Indians hearing his object
sang the war song and attacked the
marshal and possee with pistols and
bowie knives. Quite a lively light en
sued, during which two of the indians
were killed. It is feared the affair
may cause the Commanehes to go on
the war path.
South Caholina Democratic county
clubs, acting, doubtless, on suggestions
from higher management, have resolv
ed that they wiil permit no "strangers"
to come into . their midst during the
coining campaign for the purpose of
misleading the negroes. Tuis is a geu-
tlf intimation Hvif free snpf-rh :ou-l I"?o- i
publican orators from other States are
to be strangely together.
The Democratic members of Con
gress pride themselves much on hav
ing xi powerful scent for fraud; never
theless, they took mighty good care to
keep Cronin's nose out of the Potter
investigation.
Dismissal of Clerk.
The Times' Washington special says
it seems to be a conceded fact that the
grand treasury raid known as tho river
and harbor bill was only passed by the 1
worst log-rolling scneme inai nas mi
been known m congress. Yesterday,
tho first day of the new fiscal year, and
the day upon which all appropriation
bills recently passed, go into effect in
some departments, notably the Treas
ury and Interior, there was a great
many dismissals of clerks and female
copyists, and in others a number of ap
pointments were made. As a conse
quence it was a day of commotion in
all the department's. In the Treasuiy
and Interior departments, where the
greatest number of dismissals took
place, the scene was quite harrowing.
Men and women who year in and year
out draw their little monthly pittance,
living upon the hand to mouth system
as most government clerks do, found
themselves cut off without notice.
