NEWS FROM TIIE WAn..--Thereluive•
-been no late important ditpatcheti
from the 'seat of war in the Eafit.
The military:operations of both con-
testanls seem slower than ever. The
Russian troops fail to appreciate the,
advantage of quick and bnld maw:e
wes, and when they once 'determine
upon a course of i action they spend
so. muCh time In preparation, and
they are so slow in execution, that
the opportunity is •gone ir)iee i th4
are ready for it.
The principal news is contained in
the following generalization from the
Tribune: "In Armenia the Russian
prospectS have suddenly- brightened.
Troops have come to the relief of
B.s.vAzio, and have doubtless.route
the Turkish troops. which were intent.
.on forcing, the garrison to, surrender.
This opportime movement will ena
ble the left wing to
,retreat in good
order, or to hold its ground s until it,
receives aid, when it may again cotn-;
I'AsnA to keep a large
force posted to arrest its prc.gress.
The renewed energy disi)layed around
Kars indicate that the Itiisian line's
are still intact. Should that foiiress
alone fall into their hands : the Rus
sians would have reason to be satis
fied with the .cialipaign. The capture
of Eizerum would inevitably follow."
jUtrilE Davis in one of hia temper
ate speeches iq Clearfield, gave some
statistics of the terrible results from •
the use of intoxicating liquor? J UDGE
OaVis said : "That during his entire
practice„at the bar, in • all criminal
cases, the cause could be traced di
rectly or indirectly to the use of in
toxicating liquor, and that nine
cases - out. of ten where murdq is
coipniitted, the criminal is a drinker
of liquor.": Onris stated
that in t, one single case in that County
—the trial of TuaNiat—the- county
ineurrtif - ‘an -expense of .$6,000 ;'then
the . , expenses of TURNER and his
witnesses would be equally as much,
" all traced directly to whisky."
Why the people"of this county have
no idea what the sale of whisky costs
them in taxes each
.`year. They Pay
for it all through . tite ctiarter sessions
court, in whieVour criminal cases
are tried. Would it note
the reader to consider
candy? Then Judge 0:
My friends, have you'an:
it costs to hold one day'
your 'court house ? Why,
openfyoui eyes when I tell you that
$l,OOO will hardly cover the-expenses
for one day." Think of this.. Then
remember that almost• half the year
is'taken up with court and the dock:
et'is i three years behind, These are
facts which cannot be' disputed.

• WE see nu reason to-doubt the wis
dOrn of the Prrsident's conclusion,
that a Republican yietory jai:lqt only.

they differ with him on matters of

country, one of the great sources of
strength and Coherence in the Repub

-intelligence and brains, and they.
have never yet been known "-to spite
tivir face for Itlie sake of their nose."

THE INDIAN OUTBEEAK.
. „
WASHINGTON, July. 8. Carefid
study of the situation in the section'
of 'the country where Indian hostili
ties are now. in progress leads to
the belief in'arnity circles that affairs
ara, much more •serions- than they
have been represented ; that the In
dian forces in the field', 'and those
who may join the hostiles in'case of
any considerable advantage being
: gained by the latter, has been va.stiy
-underrated.‘The attack upon Perty . „'s
command seems to indicate thattlie
i T
Indians left in - G era Ilowaid's
rear, and, suppose ~.to be friendly,
have taken the field and it is the ac
tion of these India a that has led to
the belief that Jose l pk'sntl has.re-,
crossed the Salmon river In- tke'tear '
of General lloward'g fOrces. ' It is
feared the hostile Indiatiaand 'those
desirin ,, a pretext to fake the field on
this skip' of the . mountains.will'be in
dficed to make a demonstration - to
prevent large reinforcements being
sent to General lioward, in which
case the situation would become ,se
tiously alarming. • From informations,
received, it is believed that, the sO- ,
called hostiles who have surrendered
on this side 'of the mou n tains are'
only those . wh? were a ••source of
weakness to the main force. It is-a
significant fact that they ..broughtin
no. ammunition and very few good
guns, most of, the 'arms being old
worn-out shot-guns- or old.flirit-lock
muskets. It is .a well-known fact
that's late - number of young backs
are missing from the rolls of ) the
agencies, and the belief is„ge.neral
`that it will require - the Wisest, Iran
.ageinent on the part of the Govern 7,
ment officials in order to prevent the
inauguration of the mat widespread
and serious Indian troubles the Gov
ernment has-, had to deal . with . in
