ALBANY, OREGOX, JUNE 20, 1877. Lacky Quen is looking up, and with new machinery tbe stockholders confi dently Took to big "divys" at an early day. We hope their expectations will be fully realized. ... , . Til Jen is announced to sail for Europe on the 18tb of July. From this wo in fer that the quo warranto ot which we have heard so much, is basted, and that Tilden thinks, with the , great body of the American people, that he and a few Democratic followers have made fools of themselves long enough. We hope Samuel J. may have, a pleeant trip. TERRIBLE FIRE. On the 20th inst., St. John?, New Brunswick, was almost annihilated by fire. Forty odd blocks, or nearly 200 acre, were burned over, leaving less than half a dozen buildings that were not totally destroyed. The loss is plac ed at ten or twelve million dollar. Fifteen thousand people were left home less, and much suffering must ensue as not a grocery or provision store was saved from the tire. Six newspaper and tear job printing offices were de stroyed. Meetings have been held all over the country, and large sums collect. d for the relief of the city. Eight or ten persons lost their live?, while acci dents were numerous, especially among the gallant firemen, who done all in their power to save the city. All the leading business house, hotels, banks, churches, theatres, etc., were destroyed. A Washington special says Jones' report of the silver commission is expect, d to be made public in a few days. It is an exhaustive argument in favor ot a double standard and remonetizing ot silver. The position is taken that the contraction of the currency, caused by demonetizing silver has arrested busi ness enterprises aud largely contributed to special depression. To-day Jones ex presses tbe opinion that with silver de monetized specie resumption would be impossible. lie says that if Sherman could possibly resume it would only be temporary, and tbo result would be great Buffering, and return finally to issu ing of paper. Tho Senator favors the passage of the bill to declare the old silver dollar a legal tender for all debts public, and private, and directing that upon any person bringing silver plate, bars or bullion to the mint it sba'l be ! tbe duty til the govornmet to coin it charging only such seigniorage as may be necessary to cover expenses. Anoth r provision of the bill would be to pro ride that upon any person depositing iu . mints a silver bar of given weight aud r fineness, it 6hall be the duty of the gov ernment to give the party so depositing, certificates ol deposit This corresponds t to gold notes, the principle being the ' same. Jones insists that the 4 per cent, bonds are payable in gold com at the ptnton of tbe government. EASTERN NEWS. THE EASTERN WAR. The Turks have recaptured Bayazid, capturing a few prisoners. - '-":, Ensland will occupy Egypt under pretence of neutrality, but really to co operate with Turkey against Russia. Letters received at Athens, from Con stantinople state that the Turkish War Department is destitute ot muds. Two divisions of the Turkish army have effeoted a junction in Montenegro, after six days flighting. Loss, 5,000. Since the 22d Austrian troops have lined the Montenegrin frontier and the women and children are fleeing in num bers to Cottlars. Telegrams to Edinburgh and Chicago give the situation in England as excit ing and grave. The war party seem to have the ascendency. . The London Times ot the 22d says : 'It is rumored tl at the British Parlia ment will vote an extraordinary credit ot 10,000,000 tor military exigencies." Russian agents have been despatched to Hamburg, Bremen and the United States to enlist sailors for the navy. Five new men-of-war are to be launched at Ccrosta. Sunday night tho bombardment of Rutschuk by the Russians became ter rible. The Turks stood lire with great coolness, replying vigorously .and with good aim. A shell has fallen in the prison aud killed two prisoners. Sever al non-combatants have been killed and wounded. Shots have struck the Ger man, English and Belgian consulates. Shells burst near the hospital, but the Russian tire seems directed to the center of the town and continues to-dav with : great vigor. A liustchuk dispatch says cne hundred people have been killed in the streets by Russian shells. The Servian minister ot war has or. dered out for early camp drill sixteen battalions who served in the standing army during 1876, also battalion of regulars and militia officers hitherto available, are to be taken aatn into active service. Tho Russians have made a second crossing at llerzova. A force of 8,000 men passed over, and has effected a junction with detachments coming from Ma'cLin, and will to-morrow (27) march against the Turkish line of defense be tween Czenovoda and Kustondje. Tho Turks are making great exertions to break the lines at Trajan's wall between Czenavoda and Kutondje, which has been strengthened by recent fortifica tions throughout its whole length. Both sides make the usual charges of inhumanity. Tho eastern war has now opened in earnest. Heavy righting is reported both in Europe and Asia. It is now clearly the intention of Russia to push the war with vigor. That it will be done with great sacrifice ot life need not be doubled. The '1 urks occupy very strong defensive positions, and recent improvements of firearms give troops holding guch positions immensely great er advantages than formerly for making successful defense. Y ith such rapidity and effect is the fire delivered that as saulting columns are annihilated before they cau reach the works they are at tempting to carry. But Russia by the sheer weight ot numbers will be able to push simultaneous campaigns against both divisions ot the Turkish empire. Her vast forces will enable her to invest the principal fortresses and still have men enough tor operations in the open field, x 10m this time forward we may look for 6tiiring news. TBE, IDAHO INDIAN WAR. A wind -storm, some eight blocks wide, passed over St. Joseph, Mo., on tbe night ot the 23d, unroofing the Fa ifio Hotel, Tootle's Opera House and large number of business "houses, Several persons were more or less injur ed, but no one reported killed. A fire at Marblebead, Mass., on the 25th, destroyed 40 dwellings, depot of Eastern Railroad, seven coaches aud a number of freight cars, besides business houses 72 in all. Loss not reported. General Sherman is to visit the new soiXitary posts on the Yellowstone and in Montana immediately. On tbe 25th, a wind and rain-storm passed through Missoari, Iowa, a large portion ot Illinois and a section of Mich ia. feevere nail ana lightning pre vailed along the Northwestern railroad ia Illinois. Houses, barns, fences, tele graphs, timber, etc, were prostrated all along its route. ; North and Sooth Carolina and Geor pa gold mines yielded a total ot $19, C0G,225 23 tor tbe year tending June 30, 1876. This show's that the Atlan tic slope yields quite a little sum annual- It to tbe circulating medium. ' Geo. Grant was present at a banquet given at ibe Trinity House, London, on tbe evening of tbe 23d, presided over by tbe Prince of Wales, who, in bis speech remarked that "it was a matter or pe culiar gratification to ns as Englishmen to see him (Gen. Grant) a guest ot this 1 country. , .Earl- Carnarvon, proposing health to visitors, paid a special com. clkoest to Geo Grant. In return the General acknowledged tbe compliment raid to the American Government tbroazh him in a few choice words. No oaaa ever was feted jo England as is Grant at tbe presant time. i'?t Tbe New York Assembly is trying to make a street lair to punish street- loaf ers Wben it gets one that -will work JeCflie bells be rang all over the country. tDasn, asks an -exchange, "at Wl.il (iitLsr grapes of thorns ?" We should say not, unless the night happens to be unusually dark,. A letter from J. J. Crawford, San Javier, Province of Santa Fe, Argentine Republic, South America, April 2d, 1877, tells of the revolution in said Pro vince on the 25th of March, last. Col. YV. T. Moore, through the wiles ot Pa tricia Cullen, au ex-Governor of the Province, native born but ot Irish ex traction, was induced to head the rebell ion. Three hundred reckless men were found who were willing to undertake revolution in the hope of riches. They marched to the crossing of the Sa'adillo river, where they were met by Col. Romero with a company of native troops, who whipped aud totally routed Col. Moore and party, killing Patricio Cullen. - Moore escaped for the time being to become an outlaw, his life and property forfeited to the Government. There were but four North Americans engaged in this affair : Ben Moore, an outlaw from California ; Bill Wines, an outlaw from Texas ; W. T. Moore and Henry Griffin. Mr, Crawford thinks this will be the last attempt at revolu tion for some time in Argentine. A tremendous storm on the 24th done immense damage in Illinois. In Mor gan county the damage to wheat crops i estimated at $100,000. At Cham paign 100 bouses and buildings were damaged, while trees were uprooted, fences blown down, etc. At Firebaogh the unfinished Methodist church was blown down (loss $7,000) while numer ous buildings were unroofed aud movd trom their foundations. Fourteen build ings were unroofed at Brook villa. Tbe east bound train for Cincinnati was blown from the track three miles east of Kankakee, and the 15 passengers more or less injured. -Move to Oregon where we have no such storms. . All accounts agree in tbe statement that the present Indian outbreak began without any provocation whatever on the part of tbe whites. Joseph's band, Salmon ri ver,and other renegade Indians precipitated the outbreak. From the Oregonian ot Wednesday we condense the following : George Popham, wbo witnessed the first attack on Salmon river, and much ot the fight between the Indians and soldiers on the 17th, makes tbe follow ing statement : 1 was stopping at Jack Manuel's, my son-in-law's, since last tall. The first alarm we had was on Thursday about noon, when we saw three Indians go past. Soon after Mr. Baker and Fruth came to Manuel's and told us that the three Indiat.s just passed bad shot Sam Benedict in the legs. Mr. Baker want ed to come to the prairie and inform the people, but Manuel did not deem it safe for any of them to leave. Mr. Ba ker went home, and in a short time re turned with Pat. Price, and intended to come to Mount Idaho. They had only gone a short ; distance when they saw the Zndians coming. Baker, Manuel, and wife, and childien started to go down to Baker's house ; had got but a short way when they were surrounded by the Indians, about twenty in number. They killed Baker and Manue. Mrs. Manuel fell trom her horse and they ravished her. The little girl's arm was broken and the babv boy was killed. Mrs. Manuel got back to the house and the JTudians told ber that if Price and he: self would give up all the arms and ammunition we had they would not kill us. We gave up a Henry rifle and shotgun. We kept secreted that night and Friday night. On Saturday, at about 11 A. M., the Zndiane came down the road from the prairie, went to the brush and stayed all night, I also took to tho timber on Sunday morning. They burned the house, and Mrs. Man uel and child were burned in it. The Indians were all camped on the creek, and the squaws below. About day light the fight commenced between the Tndians and soldiers, and continued about one hour, when the troops fell back and 7" saw no more ot them. The Tiidians told me they were going to cross Salmon river. They killed a large band of cattle and bad a great many horses belonging to settlers. Tiidians told me that they had sent a message up the Snake river and that there was a large lot of Jndians who would join them, and that they had plenty of good guns ; that they would kill arid capture all the country about Weiser, Payette and Boise alleys, with Boise City. They also said runners bad been sent to Falouse, Spokane, Columbia river and Umatilla tribes, who would join them, and that they would capture the whole country about the Snake aud Clearwater rivers, including Lewiston. Tbey said it would take them two months to ac complish it and then they would have a good time. On Monday I started to Mount Idaho. In the afternoon they headed me off and went back, but came up the creek that night, but did not feel satisfied and went back. I learned nothing more aod on Tuesday morning again started. I come through the bru h and timber and reached the fort at 7 P. M. Price left White Bird at 3 P. M. Sunday, packing the little 6 years old girl, by permission of the In dians. He stated that he saw on the road nine dead soldiers. Thev were all scalped and horribly mutilated. Hear rived at Mount Idaho Monday evening, where they now remain. I think there must have been from 150 to 200 en gaged in the fight Sunday morning. On the 20th Chapman and bis scouts found H. C. Brown and wife near the Cottonwood house and brought them in. Ou the 21st chapman's scouts went to the vicinity of the battlefield and saw several dead soldiers horribly mutiluted. Learned trom a Chinaman that all the buildings on Salmon from Brown's, be low the mouth of White Bird, up to Slate creek, were burned, and ail the cattle and horses driven off. Latest re ports are to the effect that the Indiana have all crossed Salmon river at Horse shoe Bend, with all their plunder, and are believed to be heading for Payette and Weiser river valleys, with all their warriors, estimated by sonm at 300. Dispatches the 24th say that Gen. How ard and Col. Perry met at Cottonwood and that the combined force was to move the next day for tbe old battle ground. Gen. Howard telegraphed to Col. Wood a full list of the settlers who were massacred. The list includes 15 men, one woman and two children a total of 18. So far ascertained this is all the citizens who have been massacred by the Indians. Gen. McDowell has been instructed by Gen. Sherman to have the Indians pursued as fast as possible and pay no attention whatever to boundary Hues ot different military command ere; bat to pawn the Indians whenever caught. Clumsy legislation has left Tennessee without any law against horse-stealing, larceny from the person, , house or bridge burning, house breaking with intent to commit robberv. The old laws against these crimes were so severe that tbe last legislature repealed them, bat forgot to i restore the old law or enact a new one. 353 At?

The Doctors there gave me up, and told me if I had any friends I wished to see I had better go and see them, as I could live but a little while longer. On my way to Oregon I com menced using Mountain Balm; it helped me; I continued its use until it cured me of the disease.' Mr. W. T.

"I left Missouri with the consumption. Reached Rock Point, Jackson county. Or., and was taken down.
