ANOTHER MASSACRE BY THE MODOCS.
—Another tale of horror comes from the
lava beds, not less distressing than the
murder of General Canby, and vastly
more humiliating. Three companies of
United, States troops went out to look for
the sixty Modoc warriors, who still re
main in their inaccessible stronghold.—
They were attacked by the savages with
such fury that all who did not run away
were killed. Twenty-four men were left
dead among the rocks, and fourteen of
the wounded managed to escape and get
back to camp. Five are still missing.—
The officers seem to have behaved with
great gallantry. Three of them died like
brave men, and a fourth was carried off
the field badly wounded. It is not known
that any of the Modocs were killed in the
encounter, although the friendly Indians
co-operating with the United States troops
are reported to have taken four scalps in
another skirmish. The Modocs are arm
ed with repeating rifles, and, being expert
marksmen, they lie quietly in ambush
until the soldiers come within range, and
then shoot:with as much deliberation and
safety as if they were stalking game. They
invariably aim for the officers first, and
generally bring them down. There is
then a panic, and the surviving soldiers
start for their camps with all possible dis
patch. When they have gone the warri•
ore come out from their concealment,
scalp the dead and dying, and multilate
their bodies in the traditional Itylian
style. The officers killed in the late mas
sacre were Captain Thomas, of the Fourth
United States Artillery, a son of General
Lorenzo Thomas, formerly Adjutant Gen
eral of the Army ; Lieutenant Rowe, son
of Major Marshall _Howe, on the retired
list, and a son-in-law of General Barry,
the commandment at Fortress .Monroe;
Lieutenant Wright, of the Twelfth Infan
try, son of the late Major General Geo.
Wright, and nephew of the late General
Sumner. Lieutenant Harris, reported
wounded, is a nephew of the late Bishop
Mcllvane. A despatch to the New York
Herald says that the United States troops.
engaged only numbered sixty-nine, of
whom forty-nine were killed and wounded.

SiirThe telegraph reports a fearful ac
cident at Dixon, Illinois. • A great crowd
of people congregated on the iron bridge
across the Rock river on Saturday after
noon to witness a baptism. The treacherous
structure gave way and many were thrown
into the writer and drowned. Thus far
thirty-two bodies have been recovered.
DIXON, May 4—Midnight—No other
bodies of the'victims of the bridge disas
ter have been received at this point up to
the pogent hour, but several bodies have
bee/picked up at Sterling, six miles be
lew here end doubtless the swift current
has borne others still further down the
stream. The general estimate of the loss
is from ninety to one hundred. •
It is supposed that at least fifty bodies
are stiff in the water. Most of them, it is
supposed, are under the wreck of .the
bridge.
When the bridge Ave way most of the
people were gathered at either end, tho'
a large number were at the centre, and
some of them remained where they were
after the crash, and were taken off in boats.
Several persons jumped from their preen
lions resting place and were drawn ashore.
Two horses attaci'ed to a buggy were
on the Middle span when the crash came,
and remain there still, as there is no way
of getting them off. There were a num
ber of remarkable escapes of children, of
whom there were probably not less than
fifty on the bridge. One little fellow, aged
thirteen years, was caught by both feet in
the iron rigging of one of the spans and
had a leg broken, but he managed by sheer
strength to pull one of his boots off, and
then cooly took out his knife and ripped
the other boot from the crippled leg and
swam ashore. Two little girls, sisters,
standing side by side went down together.

Tay CElLurEuv.—At last the' much
'needed and fong talked of cemetery sui
mimes something ,of' a reality. tleveral,
meetings have been held for the purpose
of organizing an association and selecting
a site for the . proposed cemetery. Recent
ly an exploring,party has been out exam
ining the different sites. It seems proba
ble that a number of those who have the
matter in hand have determined on
Shank's woods, on the left of theHagers-'
town pike, about ' - one and a half miles
from town. We cannot linderstand why'
the most distant point should be r eelected
when others possessing even greater ad
vantages are offered. There are certainly
very strong objections to this location and
it - is-hoped-that-in-their-final-decision-an- -
other site will be selected. It seems that
our country friends favor the proposed
location, but a, very large majority in
town rightly object to it. We don't know
why Shank's woods should be pteferred
unless it is expected that it will not cost
as much as the others, but in this as in
everyth g e e ways 77
cheapest. To make any public enterprise
a success it must be best suited to the
wants of the majority, and this the pro
pcs'ed situation cannot do.
1. The ground is not or but recently
cleare4 so that it will be impossible to get
rid of stumps and roots for dome time to
come. All the other sites offered have
been under cultivation for years and are
cleared of all this.
2. It is not a central Point being off
to the side of town necessitating those on
the opposite side to go tituch farther.
3.—TheLground,cannot beirtade_present
as good appearance or be laid out to as
good advatitage as some others.
4. The greatest of all objections' is the
ing of conveyances to attend funerals.—
This sometimes would be impossible and
Reall times would incur quite an item
of expense to our poorer people. To our
country friends this is hardly a consider
ation. They all have their conveyances
or can get them without cost. And when
, • o_, a- mile or so-farther-can—
not be considered an objection. We do
notcrit i e — iti - the — intemat - of anyindividu
al nor are we prejudiced in favor of any
particular location, but let us have any
other site than the one proposed, either of
the others that have been offered possess
advantages that render them more desir
able. Let us have the cemetery located
as near town as possible. _
THE GREEN-EYED MONSTER.—There
is a man in St. Louis who is so affection
ately fond of his wife, that he is jealous if
a man looks within forty-fivo degrees of
the direction in which she may happen to
be. The other day a gentleman spoke to
her and he immediately threatened sui
cide. His wife was despatched for a bot
tle of poison which she had put up at the
druggist's consisting of a little water col
ored with liquorice, and bottled, with a
glaring poison label outside. When he
threatened to take some of it, and actual
ly poured it into a wine glass, she scream
ed for.help and ran into another room
where she could watch him through the
key • hole, and saw him cooly open the
window and throw it out. Shy
ed back, apparently franti
and implored him not to do
He merely pointed at the glass, and lay
ing down on the floor began to kick out
his -legs like 'a jumping jack. She said
she was determined to share his fate, and
swallowed the rest of the liquorice water
where upon he become really frightened,
called the neighbors, confessed that he on
ly shammeil, and said that if she only
survived he never would trouble her again.
Then she explained the ruse, and he was
so mortified he tried to buy up the silence
of the neighbors, but the story was too
good to keep. He is thoroughly cured.
gAn exchange says the prize-package
boy is doomed. No one Who has traveled .
on an American railway hag failed to
meet him, or to be tempted to murder by
his shrill voice and persistent impudence.
His packages, consisting of unwholesome
candy and occasional bits of brass jewelry
are revolting to any properly constituted
mind ; while the boy himself, with his ob
jectionable voice and his exasperating hab
it of perpetually slamming the car-doors,
is loathsome in the last degree.. The As
sembly of New York has passed a bill
suppressing him upon all the railways of
that State, and other Legislatures will
have to follow this example unless they
are willing to see other railways built up
at the expense of their own. There is but
one effect of the bill which can prove any
thing but an unalloyed blessing. Here
tofore the first thought of any one upon
reading of a railway collision, has been
the wild hope that a prize-package boy
had been killed. With his suppression
will vanish the only possible consolation
which can ever be drawn from a railway
accident.

somewhere incalifornia, about one hun
dred and twenty -miles from San Diego,
where people do not die, according to the
account of one whe has been there, and
where we advise all who wish to live a
century or two to go. A lady writes to
the Grand Rapids (Mich.) .Eagle, from
that desert of bliss, that catarrh is banish.
ed in twenty-four hours, that owing to the
extreme dryness of the atmosphere a pail
of water will evaporate in one day, and
there are no dews at night. , The desert
is a barren wake, devoid of even insect
life, save in wet spots. People, by her ao•
count, do pot die, but dry up, for she says,

. - -7; • veral of the patents owned by the.
Sewing Machine Ring have expired, but
they hold others that will enable them to
continue ,their present system of extortion
for several years to come.
The Wilson S. M. Company do not belong
to the "Ring," and their aim has been to
benefit the publicly reducing prices to a
reasonable standard. Their, machines are
now the most perfect in the market, noise
less, light-running, and capable of the wid
est range of family sewing. While owing to
their peculiar construction and the means
employed for taking up lost motion, they
will last fully 5 years longer than any other
machine. Examine the Wilson and be con
vinced. A. E. WAYVANT, Agent,

The above cut represents our Horizontal
Engine with Improved Side Bed. This de
sign makes it strong, neat and durable and
upon which we have made some valuable
improvements, especially upon the working
parts making hem durable and economi
cal.
We build Horizontal Engines with box
beds of different sizes and designs and up
on the most improved plan.
We also make Upright Engines of differ
ent sizes and styles, and where economy of
space is an obct, they have some advan
tage over the iforrizontal, also in the wear
of the Cylinder,whiqh is always equal in an
Upright Engine.
_
We give special attention to Portable
Engines and Saw Mills; also Agricultural
Engines for threshing grain and for farm
purposes generally. Also
STPLA...IVE BOILERS,
of all sizes. A special point of advantage
in this machine is a recently invented and
patent self-adjustiug BALANCED SLIDE
VALVE for Steam-Engines and Locomo
tives. We direct special attention te. this
superior valve, and invite correspondence.
It leaves the engine in operation as simple
as those of the ordinary plain slide valve
class. Further information maybe obtain
