B. STOLL, i # Ligonier, Ind. - R ML ORI AP S L A Horrible Story—Small Pox Among : the Indians. . : The World’s Washington correspondent writes:” “Commissioner Parker, of the Indian Bureau, has received a letter trom General Alfred Sully; Superintendent of the Montana Indiang, in which he reports that the raviges made hy swallpox among the Gros Ventres and Assiniboin tribes have been so great as to ale most exceed belief. By General Sully’s letter it appears thatifi{nce last September to the first of February, when the smallpox brok® ont among the Gros Ventres, there have been 741 deaths, which leaves

~ only about twelve bundred cf this nation - alive... What ‘makes this calamity still . more "to be deplored is, that, of all the ' - Indians in Moutana, the most friendly .towatrds the whites and among the Indians most disposed to accept civilization . are the Gros Ventres, and they have suffered terribly. I am informed at one time that death¥ at the agency were so rapid that the few men there\could not dig graves fast enough. They had to fill _up the ice near the fort with thie dead and then cover them’ up. Tt was fortunate that the weather was cold, otherwise it would have been necessary to abandon ¢ the agency. It furtherappears that when Jthe disease was at its height those suffering with it would prevail on their friends toca'ry them from their huts into the open air, when, they would crawl to the -. riverside and remain for hours immersed in the’ ice-cold water. The consequence was that many took coeld from the expo- " sure and died in frightful torment. ~ Others committed suicide to escape further ‘suffering. The locality of the camp was made known by the cries of the 'sick, which could be heard a long way off. — ‘Under the superstition common among the Indians when greatly afflicted Ly disease, one of their medicine men was killed to propitiate the offended deity. The ~ sCene for long weeks was appalling in the extreme, and it was only through the exertions of the physician and the few citizens employed for the purpose that | the ravages of the disease were checked. ' The late action of the commissioner in M sendiig out an-abundant supply of vac- - cine girus, it is thought, will prevent the * -recargence in future of such terrible mor- " tality among all the tribes.” _ ; : dml s Summier Tour. ~ The President has expressed his inten- - * tion of locating for the summer at Long Branch and of repeating the programme carried out last year, probably extending is travels westward beyond the Missis{ippi and making a general tour of the _principal western cities north of the Ohio: * The most of his.time, however, will be tat Branch on aéecount of its m pl‘olliz‘i?y to Whlhington.“o_d that in the event of another ?:uh in the Cabinet he may be on hend-—in time. | il \ kvgw —Canfield & Emery are in m they are offering to the public at : mm !im Mlfifl'gfid‘ to o-”fi A é MM ~‘ ef KU s

THE UNRULY AFRICAN, The Logansport Pharos is of opinion that the newly-made colored voter will give the Radicals no little uneasiness.— “He knows his rights, and knowing dares maintain them,” and does, therefore de- | mand that he shall have all the benefits and incidents of an elector. He wants not only to exercise the priv_ile{;e of voting early and offen ; but thinks that he should have a person of his own color on | the ticket he su'pports. to represent his interests, The “ nigger” believés in rota- | tion in office, and thinks the timec has | now come for the Radicals to make good all their promises, and give his people a fair sprinkling of candidates. In Marion county, where the colored citizen can mus- | ter about twelve hundred votes, the ele- | ment demands that one of their gwn color be placed upon the county ticket, and threaten, if the demand is not complied with, they will bolt the nominations.— Confusion and alarm have seized:Bpon the radical leaders, and the question; “ can we. trust the nigger ?” is now seriously agitat- | ing them. They had confidently counted |on the pegro vote. There has been a dei gree of flattery towards the colored voter { upon the part of the radical politicians ' that has been as abject as it was unbecom- | ing, and all to secure the vote of the rew'ly enfranchised. But the negro is master ‘of the situation and knows it, and pro- ~ poses to use his new privileges to his own advantage. There is a fair prospect that the radical party will yet be hoisted with t its own petard, and in the end will either baye to succomb to the negro, or dishand : its orgamization. The corollary of negro - suffrage is negro office:holders, and .Radicaliem should have co?sidered the one in securing the other. It is too late to go i back on their colored friends now. They’ have the African, and must provide for | him, and effice is the provision he craves with all the intense desire of his white brother, i , _ B = | . IFhe'Advance System. | In speaking of the payment in advance | tor n.wspapers, the Whitley Commercial says: “ Nearly all the publishers ot county papers. are mloptiug the cash system. i We are confident that it is the only way by which a paper can be successfully printed.” After quoting the above, the Warsaw Union adds: “ We have tried it for six years, and came to the conclusion that we would not publish a paper any othereway.. We believe there is no busi‘ness in which an honest man may engage in, that is so much below par, that is dependent on the charitles of the public, and at themercy of bad and unprincipled people of all kinds, as the newspaper that is published on the credit system. Brethren of the.press, if you would exalt your business, do justice to yourselves and to the profession, we say, adopt the cash system, We are not ashamed to say, that after hours of toil, often in the silent hours of the night, we were at a loss to get money to purchase the blank paper upon which to print our edition, not because we had not earned the money, for didn’t our subscfibers owe us hundreds? but beeause they knew us not.. We concealed our distress, even from those who would have assisted us, and so far murdered it thro’, without any material assistance from any ibheY 0 ol .

‘ VT e The Editorial Convention. ‘The semj-annual convention of the Editors and Pablishers of the 10th and 11th Congressional Districts, the official proceedings of which are published elsewhere," met in South Bend on the 9 h inst., and most of the members enjoyed the unbounded hospitality of the denizens of our neighboring city for a period of two days. Friday was mainly spent in attending to the business of the association and exchanging those professional civilities of the season which the pen too Jrequenfly turns into incivilities. . In the evening the united fraternity, the ms(! of whom were accompanied by their wives, met at the Dwight House and sat down to a feast of good things that will be remembered as long as the editorial palate’ retsids its cunning. The leading and Lospitable citizens of the city threw open their doors and spared no effort to make every one of the fraternity feel at home and at perfect ease. Scores of families insisted upon entertaining various numbers of guests and the supply was far from adequate to the demand. Hospitality is a virtue not neglected by South Bend, and her enterprise and rapid development may be largely attributed to her generosity and broad liberality. . After enjoying a nights rest and .being entertained in a highly satisf#ctory manner, the party were taken in- charge by Mr. & Mrs. Molloy, of the Union, and Messrs. Beal, Miller & Crockett, of the Register. Carriages were supplied and a tour through the city commenced. The ‘party first halted at Studebaker’s mammoth ‘Carriage and Wagon Manufactory and were shown through the entire establishment from basement to roof. The Woclen Mill was then visited; the factory of the celebrated Strayer Grain Drill inspected, and a look through thelarge factory of the Singer Sewing Machine Co., brought the party to carriages prepared to take them to Notre Dame and St. Mary’s. It is unjust for us with the limited space at our disposal, to attempt a description ofthese colossal structures of learning. Notre Dame is perhaps second to no college in the United States, and it is capable of accommodating 500 students. Its celebrity is co-equal with the bounds of the Union, and students i are in attendance from every part of the _continent. The professors showed our party every attention and conducted us througheach department of the college, explaining the whole with a minuteness that } deserves the thanks of all. The party vis(ited St. Mary’s Female Academy, which is 1 under the charge of Mother Angela, a “member of the famed Ewing family, and ‘ Sister-in-law of Gen. Sherman. . Here we met with a cordial reception and were ‘welcomed with a poetical address by two young lady students. We were shown through the building and treated to some excellent music by the young ladies. The grounds of St. Mary’s are splendid and the school is largely patronized by people of different religious faiths. From St. Mary’s we returned to Notre Dame, where we sat down to an excellent dinner that was-keenly relished by all, "After looking at the sun thgpngh o large telescope, presented to the College by Louis Napoleon, and ringing the big bell—the largest in America, we reluctantly took our leave, retdrn. ed to the city, and took the evening train for home. | e : Go to Capfield & Emery's for cheap

i ~ i _ For the Banner. ‘Slap Jacks, 3 Or pan cakes, whichéver you like to call them, are familiar to most American people, but not the kind I intend to speak of. In the spring of 1860, having accepted an invitation to spend a few weeks with my | old friend C——, I packed my traps, fishing tackle, &c., and took up the line of march for what is known as the “Kingdom,” situsted on the Wabash river opposite Grayville, Illinois. Well, I arrived in due time, met a cordial welcome from | ——, and made myself ‘“tu hum,” as a | yankee would say. Now C—— had in his | employ a number of journeyman farmers, | and one of them imagined that the Creator + had made him an extraordinarily smart * man. - This individual took every opportu- ' nity to turn up his nose at the city gent, |as he was pleased to call me. So I made | up my mind to-play a slight joke on the | fool. One of my pastimes was to set out i :vhat is called ‘“‘night lines” to catch fish ' ealled Buffalo. The bait for the same be-- " ing made in this way: Take a kettle of | water and while boiling sprinkle in it corn | meal, and cotton picked-very fine. While _l making the same the idea occurred to me | that now was the time to play my joke on | thé smart youth. This evening we were | to have slap jacks for supper, and my | friend, the jour, being a perfect gormand, { with a mouth spread all over his face, was | very fond of slap jacks. Well, supper ' time came and with it the men from ' the field. I tobk them;one by one aside i and told them mot to take the cake I would bake. Supper was cafled and the slap jacks disappeared rapidly from the plate of my frignd. I quietly asked him how quick he thonght he could eat a slap jack He answered, “in half s minute.” I said, I will bet you five dollars you cant’t eat one in five minutes. [le took the bet. 1 took some of my fish bait, made stiff with cotton, and baked the cake. Time was called, and at it he went. He could not get a piece off, a pull to the right a pull to the left. His face became purple with rage, but the slap jack 'was still v;ho‘le and the men were convulsed with laughter, which enraged him all the-more. = He | tried to swallow, it whole, but it was too }large. Time's up, eried C——, and the lout taking the cake in his band flung it at my-head. Such a shout of laughter as went up I never expect to hear again. ; ; : WoXo o e & e . FearruLLy BUrNED. —A little six year old child, the daughter of J. 11. Lock, of Noble township, was recently birned in a l most shocking manner. It appears that | .she was sitting on a pile of straw in the door yard, when & little brother dropped a cole of fire near her. Thestraw ignited, and, communieating with her clothing, speedily envelcped her in a sheet of flame, from which she was not rescued until va‘rious parts of her body were badly burned. For a time but little Hope of her recovery was entertained, but’ we are pleased to learn that she is now much better, and will no doubt recover.—La Porte Argus. —_— e ——— > — - Pararyzep.—Our readers will be pained to hear that Hon. John Reynolds was on Thursday last stricken with paralysis. He was in Chicago at the time and was conveyed Lome on Friday morning. Mr. R. has hosts of friends who will* deeply sympathize with him in this afliction and ' should it result fatally, the country will ‘lose an honored citizen and & good man. . l'—Laporlc Argus. A : |

A Srtraw.-—The recent election at our neighboring village of Niles, Mich., fully illustrates the change in sentiment that is now taking place. Niles has formerly been about evenly divided 7in politics, but the enfranchisement of 63 negroes elated ‘the Radicals and they felt sure of a sweeping victory. ' The result surprised them, for ‘the Democrats swept the field, and elected their ticket by 90 majority. i e ety @ e : Horse TuiEvEs.—On Monday night -last a valvable span of bay mares were stolen from the barn of John F. Ullery, in German tp., together with a Cleveland buggy and a sett of double harness. The theft was not discovered until next morning when pursuit was immediately given, and bills struck and sent out to parties designated by Sheriff Clover. . On Tuesday evening one of the horses was discovered near Westville, Laporte county, and the probability is that ere this reaches our readers, the other, with the horse and buggy will have been secured. We hope the thieves may also be caught. Mr. Ullery offérs, in another column, a reward of $lOO for the recovery of property and thieves.— South Bend Register. . Last week we published a big day’s sawing by the Oglesbee mill at this place, and expressed the belief that it would be hard to beat; but it appears that this was a very -ordinary day’s work compared with what was done by a mill owned by the same partiesin Polk township.. On Wednesday of last week, this mill cut 23,803, into inch boards, and sawed the heart boards into flooring and fencing, Inside of ten ‘ hours. During the day, the mill cut 2,600 feet in 556 minutes. The men who performed this feat were G. F. Spaulding, foreman ; John Rodabush, sawyer ; E. A.Guy, fireman ; John Teeter, off-bearer. . Who next ?—Plymouth Democrat. ;

The St. Joseph Herald says Mr. Grimm, a fisherman, took up 75 nets on March 22, which yielded 40,045 pounds of dressed whitefish and trout ;an immense haul. In this connection a curious fact is noted.— Every spring, the earliest fishermen take ducks from the nets they set at the bottom of the lake for figh, and on the occasion of the above haul no less than 800 pounds of ducks were taken at a depth of 90 feet; the number béing estimated at 1,200.
