The report comes from London that

There Is trouble in Louisiana, and
large numbers ot negroes have been
killed.
The President argues strongly in
favor of an early return to specie pay

a responsive cord in the heart of every
man on we coast.
Wheat is quoted firm in London,
with an advance of one shilling. It is
thought the lowest rates have been
reached.
Trouble has already begun in the
Black Hills, In consequence of miners
going there in search of gold, in diso
bedience of Government orders. Dis
patches state that the Indians had been
defending their territory, and the re

Hon. YT. W. Bristow, State Senator
of Lane county, died at his residence
in Eugene City on the morning of the
8th inst.. aged 48 years. Deceased
was a Kentuekian by birth, but l.ad
been a resident of Oregon for twenty
six years. He was a member of the
Convention that framed the State Con
stitution. In 1872 he was elected to
the State Senate from Lane county,
and served with marked ability during
two sessions of that body. His terra
of office, cut short by death, would
have expired in 1S76. Senator Bris
tow was a Republican in politics, and
an honest, capable and true man, and
in his death Oregon has lost one of the
men whom it could least afford to lose.
Peace to his ashes.
Edward Madden, editor of the Mer
ced, California, Tribune, was assassin
ated while on his way to his office on
the morning of the 7th inst., by Harry
Grantee, stepson of the editor of the
San Joaquin Argus. The cowardly as
sassin, a worthless character, was im
mediately arrested, but subsequently
effected bis escape. Madden was uni
versally respected in the community,
and the cowardly manner of his death
caused the most intense excitement,
and every exertion was being made to
secure the murderer. Parties were
scouring the country in every direction
and it was thought he could net escape.
If caught he will most probably be
lynched.
The impression deepens, and grows
with most people into an assurance,
that Mr. Dawes has no chance for the
Senatorship. This may not be so. how
ever. The Republican majority in the
Legislature may knit itself together,
and if Mr. Dawes and his friends insist
they may wear out the opposition. It
is thought that one Wm. B. Wash
burn may consider himself a safe avail
able man. There Is, of course, the
usual talk about Mr. Adams, the late
Minister to England, but I shall not
believe be can command a majority of
the Legislature until I see it. Boston

A sick man at Adrian, HI., recently
went without food for 21 days, and,
foreseeing that be most die of starva
tion, he slyly tore the bandages on his
head into strips, while his friends were
absent from the room, and stripping
them up made a rope of them and hav
ing slipped it around his neck and tied
the ether end to the bed-post, he, by
a tremendous effort, pushed the bed
from the wall and threw himself upon
the floor: but before be was strangled
his friends came in, and he was obliged
to starve to death, after all.
When the children have reached the
"wandering away" age, but are hardlv
old enough to talk plainly, mothers
are learning to pin labels on the young

this plan works well and allows the
little ones to play out on the side
walks pleasant mornings.
The Woman's Temperance Union
of Rochester are makeing it lively for
the liquor-dealers of that place. Sev
eral of the latter are on trial for vio
lating the Excise law. The whisky
sellers are defiant, however, and have
raised a large fund among themselves
to be applied to their defense. It will
be interesting to note the result of the
fight.
A young lady In BrookvHle, Pa., re
cently came near dying through the
presence in her stomach of a spider,
which having entered one of her nostrils
while she was asleep, flnallyjworked its

and was unconsciously swallowed. The
lady's life was saved by copious doses
of brandy, which procured vomiting.

the SINGER do not exceed all others by
thousands upon thousands. While all the
other old companies' sales in 1873 decreas

and keep at the head, where it always is
and should be.

1873.
The table ot Sewinsr Machine Sales for
1873 shows that our sales last year am
ounted to 232,444 (two hundred and
thirty two thousand, four hundred and
orty-four) machines, being a large in
crease over the sates of the previous year
(1SJ2.)
The table also shows that our sales Ex
ceed those of uuy other Company, for
the period named, by the number of I1J,
234 Machines, or nearly double those of
any other Company.
It may be further stated that the sales
of 1873, as compared with those of 1S7S,
snow a relatively larger increase, oeyona
the sales of other makers, than of any-
other year.
For Instance in 1878 we sold 43.W0 more
Machines than any other Company, where
as, in 1873, the sales were
113,234 Machines in Knew or oar
ni(ne ompeuior.
These tlirures are all the more remark
able, for the teason that the sales of the
innctpai companies in ltns are less (nan
heir aalea in 1H72 : whereas, as has
been shown, oar sales have largely
increased.
The account of sales Is from rtvorn returns
made to the ownersof the Sewing Machine
Patents.
It will hardly be denied, that the superi
ority of the SINGER MACHINES is folly
demonstrated at all events that their
popularity in the household is unques
tionable. Increase
