From Nevada we learn that a compa ny have filed articles of association with the Secretary of State, their object being to build ft narrow guage railroad from Elko to Hamilton, by the most practicable route. ... . '. - .; - Perry Fuller, one of the "pillars" of Andrew Johnson's Administration, died suddenly at Washington a few days ago. - He and Mrs. Cobb were considered among the most intimate of that President's 'advisers. 'J" Owing to the active demand for dwell ings, offices, etc., buildings are going up quite lively over iu Olympia, notwith standing the weather. The Tribune as serts that building operations will be brisk there' next season.' Our friends of Portland succeed but slowly in raising the $ 100,0 W to necure the terminus of the West Side naiiroau. What's the matter, gentlemen of the metropolis ? Have yon no iaitn in ine future of your city ? Perhaps you thiuk the price a large one. It is hard to have to go down into your pockets and bring un those shining twenties those , hard- earned dollars, and such a host of them, too. But can you afford to do without it ? Albany, with less, than one-tenth the wealth of Portland, raised fifty thousand dollars within a week, to buy a railroad, .and congratulates herself now that she got it even at that figure. You have suc cessfully combatted adverse circumstan ces through the years that are past, and are no doubt capable of overcoming many more ; but there is one thing you can not do and prosper", and that is to lose that road.- You cannot afford it, and Uolladay knows it, therefore he comes down with his press. You squirm and wriggle, but it docs no good, lie has got you, gentlemen, and you have but one alternative. "Agree with thine adversary auick.lv." thouah old. is advice that comes by authority. - Have you not always felt an indefinite sense of insecurity, as it dwelling in the region ot some hidden volcano, that was liable at any time to break out and ; visit you with ruin as irretrievable as that, of Pompeii ? Nature has not given you many advantages. Take away what labor and eapital has done tor you, your brick and your mortar, and who would think of selecting that as a site whereon to build a great; commercial city ? No body. You must therefore supplement by art what nature has denied you, if you would survive the fate of those that were" but are not. Portland has reached a crisis and an epoch in her history from which she will date the beginning of her greatness, or her decline. Make her a terminus of railroads improve the advantages that God and nature has given you, and you may laugh at those who are now ready to mock at your threatened calamity. Neglect these, allow this as you have already allowed O. & C. R. R. to pass by on the other side, and you have a city finished. Then'are the days of your prosperity numbered. Everybody will have property to sell, but no buyers. Capital will pass by you. .Your business men one by oue will desert you. Mildew wilhcome up in your houses. Spiders will weave their webs in your parlors, and all over your city, dilapidation will spread the evidences of your departed glory. This is not a pleasant picture to look"at,and if realized would be a calami ty to the whole country, and no advantage to any one ; therelore, citizens ot l'ortiana, do your duty. The world expects :t of you. Do it quickly. The British Government has ordered sixty batteries of mitrailleuses, or Gat ling guns, to be put up at the Colt fac tory, Hartford, Connecticut. Uncle Sam is not only prepared to furnish the world with breadstuff's, but has ample facilities for supplying the nations of the earth with materials for blowing each other to pieces, or cutting each other's throats. The House Judiciary Committee on the 11th inst. heard the arguments of Victoria C. Woodhull, Mrs. Beecher, Mrs. Hooker, Susan B. Anthony and M. A. S. Ridtlle, claiming the right of suffrage under the Fffteenth Amendment. About fifty other ladies were present. The committee listened attentively to their speeches, but took no action. - The bill reported by the Senate Postal Committee a few days ago to authorize the establishment of an ocean mail steam ship service between the United States and Australia, directs the Postmaster General to contract with William II. Webb. Ben Ilolladav and associates for carrying mails monthly between San Francisco and Australia, by a line of steamships, at a compensation not exceed ing $500,000 per annum. I t is believed the bill will pass. - Arizona and New Mexico. Four Texan drovers we(6 attacked by a band of robbers in San Miguel county, New Mexico, which resulted in the death of two of the robbers and the flight of the remainder. .Very rich placer mines have been dis covered near Chihuahua. The Mohavcs and Piutcs are preparing for another encounter. Tho former to the number of about 700 warriors are encamped in a "fortified" village, watch ing with palpitating hearts, for the com ing of their foe, the I'iutes, who it is said, were encamped on the Muddy, strengthening their ranks with recruits from other tribes. At latest accounts, the Piute force was about 400. They claimed to have nearly 150 guns, a much greater number than the Mohaves had. But the latter had plenty of ammunition, and were practicing every day. Both parties had been playing sweet - to the whites soldiers and citizens who, with much good sense, had refused to take up the quarrel of either tribe. Kino William and the Pope. King William, it is said, has offered the Pope the nice little town, in Hesse Cassel, as a residence. If the Holy Father will not make terms with King Victor Emanuel ; it he will not re main in Rome, Fulda would be as desir able a home as any other. The town is well fortified : it is an ancient ecclesias- TelegTaphic Summary. Washington, Jan. 24. The follow ing nominations have been sent to the Senate to day : J. M.

Dijon was at tacked by a large Prussian force yester day, and several engagements occurred at the neighboring villages. Tho troops commanded by Menotti and Rivero Gari baldi in action behaved well. The French maintained their positions. The advanced posts of both armies were close to each other last evening, and it is expected the battle, will ,be resumed today.. The Prussians occupied Dole, after the bom bardment. Arlon, Jan. 23. The Prussians were repulsed at Longway on Saturday. Their guns were dismounted and they were forced to place their batteries at a greater distance from the walls. The batteries of Herselange and Onlry reply freely to the fire of the besieged. The Prussians are waiting for heavier guns, when the bom bardiuent will becoue vigorous.

It seems to be generally conceded that Germany and Russia are co-operating, either under secret treaty or under well understood agreements and com pacts growing out of indentity of j interests. No intelligent observer doubts that Russia is still intent upon her de signs in the south. She' is anxious and determined to face about to a south front, and as this colossal Power emerges from barbarism, want of a southern gateway to the commerce of the world becomes an imperative necessity. Treaties and con ventions are well enough for England, which is rich and content for Turkey, which is sick for Austria, which is fee ble for Luxembourg and Belgium, neu trals ; but for the strong Powers, treaties always rive way to the exigencies and opportunities of the hour. As proof of this argument we have only to direct attention to recent events. Italy wanted Rome she seized the Imperial city, and establishes her capital there ; Russia ig nores the treaty guaranteeing the neu trality of the Black Sea, and Prussia ig nores the neutrality of Luxembourg. - ...I . .... I.. II .HI A correspondent of the S. P. Vlironi cle says that Alsace and Lorraine are not the limits of Bismarck's ambition. Lux embourg is inevitably to be absorbed. It is a dependency of the King of Holland. If the King 'of Holland has not already been bought over to the views of Prus sia, but gives too much trouble, it will involve Holland in the complication, and the Great German Empire will absorb Alsace, Lorraine, Luxembourg and Hol land. - Thus Germany acquires the most important border defenses of the Vosges, the fortified places ot Strasbousg, Metz, and several other smaller fortifications, forever securing her against the aggres sions of France giving her the splendid ports and the great commerce of Holland, constituting her the future commercial rival of Great Britain ; "and if in the terms of peace she can secure tho French fieet, Germany becomes at once the rival "Of England on the sea. Belgium is now an outlying workshop of England. Eng land protects, patronizes and uses it. In the future Germany will either take the place of England and Germanize it, or do the other and quite as probable thing gobble it np. r Dr. Eussell, correspondent of the London Timet, as well as many other correspondents of the English press have called attention to the fact' that there is a feeling of resentment and hatred crowing no in Germany against the English, similar to that which exist ed in the United States during her late troubles.: The Government of England professes to be strictly neutral, bat the Lnglish trader is supplying arms, muni- uu materials oi war to 1'iance. The English press and popular feeling is oiviaea in sympathy.. For these, and it may do, otner causes, the fact is ap parent, say these correspondents, that there is in Germany a well pronounced popular sentiment in favor of a war. with Great Britain. England seems to un derstand this feeling, and is actively engaged in patting herself on a war footing. ieopiscopal palace. The inhabitants are mostly Roman Catholic. It is one of the strange features of these times that the great champion of the Protestant North should be the most zealous defender of the Pope. . . Massachusetts.

A ridge of beautiful black marble, ninety feet high and three fourths of a mile long, has recently been discovered in Girardeau county (Mo.), about half a mile from the Mississippi river. It is said to be susceptible of the finest polish. In New Hampshire, politics arc said to be taking a decidedly religous turn. It appears that the Free Will Baptists, the Methodists and regular Baptists each have a candidate for Governor, and it is thought the Methodists will carry the day. Mrs. Van Cott, the Western female revivalist, when she is in training, and not eick or anything, can convert her reg ular thirty sinners every week on an av erage. - She will contract to do that if the timber is furnished her to work on. In Troy (N. Y-), liquor is allowed to be soldonly to the traveling public. The citizens are to be seen every . morning, carpet-bag in hand, seeking something-! to hold in their mouths.

Pain is supposed to be the lot of us poor mor tals, as inevitable ns death itself and liable at any tiuio to come npon us. Therefore it is important that remedial agents should be at hand to be used on an emei cency, when the seminal principl lodged in the system shall dcvelope itself, and we feel the c.xcrueiatin:r agonies of pniri, or tho de pressing inlluence of disease. Such a remedial agent exists in the Pais Killer, whose lame has made the circuit of the globe. Amid the eternal ices of the polar regions or beneath the intoler able and burning sun of the tropics, its victories are known and appreciated. Undorall la itudes, from one extreme to the other, suffering humanity has found relief from many of its ills by its use. The wide and broad area over which this medi cine has spread, attests its value and potency. From a small beginning, the Pain Killer has pushed gradually along, making its own highway solely by its virtues. Such unexampled! success and popularity has brought others into the Held, who have attempted under similarity of name, to nsurp the confidence of the people and turn it to their own selfishness and dishonesty, but their efibrts have proved fruitless, while the Pain Killer is still growing in public favor.
