WHEELER, OF NEW YORK. The editor of the Democratic orgnn In the county in which Governor Hayes resides anys: "I don't believe in Hayes politically, and fdinn't vote for him, but he's a square man, and will, if elected, make an honest Presi dent." That appears to be the testimo ny of nil honest Ohio Democrats. Augusta, Me., July 13. Mr. Ulaine owing to the heavy excessive hent of the past few days, has not improved. The temperature of the Kennebec Valley has been almost as severe as in the Middle States. The effect of the heat on Mr. Blaine's condition fully confirms his physician in the belief lhat the original trouble was of the nature of sunstroke. The tonic effect of the salt uir is strongly commended by his physician. Ho hopes within the next week to have Mr. Blaine re moved to the coast, some forty miles distant. A Pen Picture of Gen. Custer. Gen. Custer was brave, even to reck lessness, as the manner of his death showed. Ho was n bold, dashing ofllcer, who did not know what fear, and not always what discretion, was. His success was a rule without ex ceptions, and his progress an advance almost without pauses. Ite was the youngest Brigadier and the youngest Major General in the army. "He never lost a gun or a color," and "captured more guns, flags, and pris oners than any other general not an army comander," and these guns and flags "were all taken in action and field service." His personal appear ance was singular. Col. Newhall. who wrote "'With Sheridan in Lee's Campaign," described him thus; "Custer of the golden locks, his broad sombrero turned up from his hard bronzed face, the ends of his crimson cravat floating over his shoulders, gold galore spangling !his jacket sleeves, a pistol in his boot, jangling spurs on his heels, and n ponderous elayniore swinging at his side, a wild dare-devil of a general, and a prince of advance guards, quick to see and ac t." While he fought brilliantly and bravely, he does not seem to have been a soldier capable of real generalship. As a subordinate working under sym pathetic direction he did his best. He died us he lived fighting his hardest and at the head of his men. Laws Relating lo Newspaper Subscrip tions and Arrearages. 1. Subscribers who do Dot give express notice to the contrary, are considered wisn ingto continue their subscription. 2. If subscribers order the discout nut ation of their periodicals,ihe publishers may continue lo send them until nil arrearges are ptid. 8. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals front the office where they are directbd, they are held responsi ble until they have settled their bills, and ordered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers movo to other places without informing tho publishers, and the papers are sent to the former direction, they are held responsible. 5. The courts hrve decided that "refus ing to take periodicals from the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled far is primafacie evidence of intentional fraud." 6. Any person who receives a newspa per and makes use of it, whether he has ordered it or not, is held in law to be a sub scriber 7. If subscribers pay in advance, they are bound to give notice to the publisher at the end of their time, if they do not wish to continue takiug it; otherwise the publishers are authorised to send it on, and the sub scribers will be held respodsible until au express notice with payment of all arrears, is sent to the publisher. Pittsburg, July 15. Since the appoint ment and induction into oflice of United Slates District Attorney JieCormicU an examination of the rcooids shows that H. Uucher Swoope, ex United States District Attorney, now dead, was a defaulter to the government in $120,000. It appears that a number of merchants of Pittsburg during Swoope's term were prosecuted for viola tion of revenue laws of disposing of goods without a proper revenue stamp thereon. Judgments were obtuined and amounts with costs and commissions paid to awoope, who, it appears, pocketed the money in stead of turning it over to the United Slates Treasury. As a district attorney is njt authorized to receive any money for the government and as the government is not re sponsible for his nnauuial acts, there is a disposition to collect from the uufortuuate appellants the amounts standing agaiust them on the docket. They have obtained o, rule in the United States District Court oalling upon the government to show cause why the judgement should not be marked "satisfied." Mr McCormick hold3 that the Court has no power in the premises, as a settlement of judgments obtained by the government rests solely with the Treasury Department at Washington. Chicago, JulyU-The Tribune's special from Fort Lincoln gives further details of the Little Horn fight, in which it says Sitting Bull was killed, also a white man named Milburu, Sit ting Bull's chief adviser. Four com panies of the Twenty-second Infantry consisting of twelve office ami 140 men arrived at Fort Lincoln and will leive for Terry's command on Sunday The wounded are recovering, and there will be no more deaths. It Is thought Sitting Bull obtained nearly $20,000, the soldiers ltaving just been paid. Chain carriers foi road viewers will hereafter be entitled to $1.60 per day lot 'their services. Until last winter no fees were allowed for this kind of service. Custer's Defeat. HI KIM.i SIX IMDIANI BiroRI BR II tAID LOW FURTHER PARTI OH LAD I Ot TBR MASSAOKER. Sioux Cily, Iowa, July 12. Agency In dians along the upper Missouri, who have received an account of (Ulster's fight through some lioMlles who took part in It, sny Cutter shot three Indians with his pistol and killed three others with his saber, when he fell shot Ih rough tho head by Hain-in tlie face, a chief whom Cuslcr had forcibly arrested some time ftgi for minder. The Indians lost seventy killed, among them many noted chiefs. The fight was hand to baud. The Indians say they d el not fear the pistol as much ns the sabers. They nre nearly out of am. munition, and will not fight until thoy gal n supply from the agencies. Cheyenne, July 12. On Saturday night a body of Indians raided the ranche of Itnms and Hunter & Abbott, fifty miles north on (be Chug, taking nine horses from the former and thirteen from the latter. Advices from the North Finite state that Mnjor Walker, jnst in from Iiirdwood, re ports the Inninus in large numbers in camp on the headwntcrs of the Dismnl. forty miles north of that place. Herders after stock in that section wene obliged to re turn without it. There is no further news trom Crook, but no uneasiness whatever is felt at Ket ternian far his safety. The latest advices from General Merritt's Fifth Cavalry headquarters sny all is quiet in that vicinity. Atchison, Ks., July 13. Six companies of the Sixth Infantry, under command of Qencrnl Miles, passed through here Inst evening, cn route to the Sioux country. They were from Fort Leavenworth. Omaha, July 18. A dispatch from Fort Fctterrrmn last night says there was not a word of truth in tho rmuor of Cook's fight aud defeat with the Indians. All sorts of rumors are afloat, which are contradicted by oflicers, execept that nothing has been heard from Cook for the past ten days. A courier is expected here daily, from which point news will undoubtedly be received first. Chicago, July 13. --specials from Sioux City say Indians arriving there from the battle with Custer givo an account of the barbarous treatment of the boiies of de ceased soldiers. Uah in-tho-faco cut the heart from Custer's dead body, put it on a pole, and a praud war sauce wns held around it. The Indians are jubilant, boastful and sanguine of making better terms on account of their success. Washington July 13. General Sheridan, who telegraphed to General Sherman ex pecting to hear from Cook last night, tele graphed yesterday, "No news." The oflicers of the Seventh Cavalry have been ordered to join their regiment tunned! ntely. . New York, July 14. A Herald special trom Detroit, giving an extract from a let ter coLtniuing an account of Custer's fight, says; P.eno was to attack the Sionx in tho rear and Custer to fight them in front Keno got in the rear, but Custer, marching tlown on the other side of the stream, saw what he supposed was the front of the camp, and made a charge. The Indians, giving way and letting him right into the gap, Custer rode in with bis three hundred men, and would, the writer be.ieves, have killed the whole two thousand Sioux if there had beeu no enemy behind him. Bui instead of charging in front he was right in the centre of and between three aud four thousand sionx. Those behind him kept comealed until lie was right in their midst, and then when it was too late, ho made a bold dash, trying to cut his wny through them; but tho enemy were too many and he fell about the first one and the horse becatr.o unmanagea ble. The poor soldiers were cut down in less timo than it takes to tell it. The Sioux then turned with all their force on Keno. He charged them with one company and returned with only eleven men. He then retreated to the Bluff, where he was re lieved by Terry and Gibbon. Out of the whole regiment only 32$ men are left. The Indians did not disfigure general Custer in any way, but his brother Tom was opened and his heart takeu. The loss of the Sioux is estimated at five hundred, though it is hard to tell how many were killed as they carried moat of them away. The New York J'ost is impolite toward HencVicks, It says he is ''a politician of the politicians; a poor, shambling shuffling two-faced, flexible waiter upon the tides with no more conviction of principle in him than his neighbor Morton of the Republi can sido; with no more consistency than a lump of dough, which he who handles kneads into shape;, whose habitual attitude for years past has been tint of striding a fence; who, in the Ohio election, strove to ride tho hard-money horse while he fondled the rag baby." The Font seems to frown upon Hendricks as a reformer. Tilden ought to get another nun on the tail of his ticket. Sitting Bull does nol intend to maintain a quiescent position, but will raise up and give battle to overy white man who appears in the Black Hills country, until the ques tion shall have been settled upon such terms as he demands. Indeed he would like to have it settled soon, for he is dis gusted with the savage brutalites of the white men, who kill each other and pollute the nir with the foul stench of their putrid bodies. The place has becomo very offensive to nun because ot the bad smell occasioned by the decomposition of the dead carcasses of the uncivilized whites, who knew no better than to murder each other. A report was current in the northwest at the close of ast week that Sitting Bull was killed iu the fight with Custer, but the news is, per. haps, too good to be true. I'ittvbureik DixX(toh. Another fatality was yesterday added to the long list of deaths caused by the foolish and careless practice of applying carbon oil to a lighted tire to cause it to burn up more lively. On Saturday morning Mrs. Craw ley, residing at the head of Saudusky street, Allegheny, arose early and being in a hurry to prepare breakfast wanted the fire iu the kitchen stove to burn quickly. After lighting the kindling in the fire place she look otf 02e of the lids and proceeded to pour oil into the stove. It ignited very quickly so suddenly in fact that the oil in the can took fire and exploded hjirning the unfortu nate woman in a tcrriblo manner about the face and breast. She also inhaled the flame, burning her mouth and throat frightfully. The poor victim lingered, in great agony until three o'ebek yesterday morning when death put an end to her suf ferings. J'itsburyh Dixpatch. The report of mercantile failures by Messrs. l)un, Barlow & Co., for the six months ended on the 80th of June last is just out. It is not an encouraging document. The number of failures for the six months is 4,600, against, 8,668 for the corresponding six months of last year, and the amount of these failures is $108,000,000 against $76,000 000 for the corresponding six months a year ago. It is noticeable, however, that great number of failures occurred in the first quarter, and that tho last three months, although showing a much larger numberand amount than the corresponding three months of the previous year, exhibit a decided re duction as compared with the first three months of this year. This will be welcomed at least a slight indica tion that we have touched bottom. New York Tribune. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Caution Notice.
