    BUTLEIt CITIZEN.
lOIN H. t W. C. ME6LEY. PRPfBS.
COL. DICK, member in Congress
from this district, favors us with
bound copies of Congressional records,
for which he has our thanks.
Tnß New York Tribune has taken
a new departure, announcing that here
after it would appear every day iu the
year that is, it will hereafter issue a
Sunday edition.
CLERGYMEN and others sending mar
riage notices, etc., had better send a
copy to each paper they wish the
same to appear in, otherwise they may
not reach more than the one paper
sent to. This, we believe, has hap
pened here lately.
THERE is no reason in the world,
says the Indiana (Pa.) Messenger,
why the present session of Congress
should be a long one. Both parties
are in favor of doing nothing—for their
own good ; and the country is in favor
of nothing been done—for its good.
As there is therefore nothing to do it
ought not to take long to do it.
HON. JAMES VBECH, of Allegheny
county, died at his residence near Pitts
burgh, on the 11th inst., aged 71 years.
Judge Veech was formerly of Fayette
county, this State. He was a high
minded, honorable gentleman, and oc
cupied a distinguished position for
nianv years past among the political,
legal and literary men of Pennsylvania.
SWEENEY, Esq., formerly of I
this place, but for many years a citizen
of Clarion county, was in town last
week attending the funeral of his
sister, Mrs. James Daugherty. Mr.
Sweeney has been an Associate Judge
of Clarion county for some years and
yet occupies that position. His old
friends here were pleased to again
meet him.
MRS. JANE GBEY SWISSUELM has
ascertained from Buckle, a good au
thority, that for every twenty girls
there are twenty-one boys born ; and,
Consequently, she infers that every
woman ought to have a husband, and
every twenty families a good common
stock old bachelor uncle, who will buy
drams for the boys, dolls for the girls
and take the young ladies to the opera.
SECRETARY OF WAR MCCRARY has
been confirmed by the Senate as I . S.
Circuit Judge for the District of lowa,
and ex-Governor Ramsey, of Minne
sota, appointed and confirmed as Sec
retary of War. This is the first change
in President Hayes' original Cabinet.
Gov. Ramsey was formerly a Pennsyl
vanian, and at one time was Clerk of
the House of Representatives at Ilar
risburg.
HON. GEORGE G. HOSKINS, Repub
lican candidate for Lieutenant Governor
of New York at the late election, has
been officially declared elected, by 290
votes over Potter, Democratic candi
date. This ends a contest in which it
seemed apparent an effort was made to
count out Mr. Hoskins. The above in
formation is communicated to us by
R. P. Scott, Esq., of this place, the
son-in-law of the newly elected Lieut.
Governor, and may be relied upon as
correct. We congratulate all parties
interested upon this Republican success.
GEN. GRANT was banqueted by the
Chicago Commercial Club, an organi
zation made up of the principal busi
ness men of the city. Of course Grant
made a speeeb, in which he said : "The
allusions of your president to myself
have l>een gratifyingoll the whole, and
the assurances that he has held out to
me that if J would settle among you I
can receive the unanimous vote of this
Club for its presidency, is the most
tempting offer I have had yet. I have
read of numerous places having been
cut out for me before, but this is the
only one that I have had any assurance
of." And this was as far as lie com
mitted himself even in regard to this
non-political position!
MARCTS W. ACHESON, Esq., a prom
inent member of the Pittsburgh Bar,
has been unanimously recommended by
the same for the appointment of Judge
of U. S. District Court, in place of
Judge Ketcham, deceased. Should this
important judicial position be filled
from the Bar of Pittsburgh, wc know
of none among its mauv able members
more competent than Mr. Aeheson to
fill the same. The district, however,
is composed of some forty counties of
Western and Northern Pennsylvania,
and we presume there is hardly a county
in which its Bar is not presenting an
applicant for this appointment. Judge
Ketcham being from the Eastern por
tion of the district, it would seem but
rigtt his successor now should come
from the Western part.
A Good Name.
Ex-Senator Scott, of this State, is
now mentioned in connection with the
next Presidential nomination. It is a
singular fact th.it up to this time the
name of no Pennsylvania Republican
has been brought forward for the com
ing nomination. New ork has a half
dozen, named on one side or the other;
Ohio has as many, and in some other
less important States, some one of
their distinguished sons will be pre
sented to the coming National Con
ventiod*. But old Pennsylvania, the
J '-second State in the Union, the "Kcy
- of the Arch," is nameless so far
? as' to. a Republican candidate, while
ve haVe as good and as able men as
ijf *iber States. Where is there a purer,
firmer, abler man than ex-Senator
jfcfa Scott ? Where a better lawyer,
I which necessarily makes the Statcs
| man ? There are also other good men
i within the Republican party of Penn
sylvania, one of whom should be
brought forward as her choice. If it
should be a citizen of the pure life and
excellent character of ex-Senator Scott,
of Philadelphia, who could object '
Doath of Hon. Darwin Phelps.
Hon. Darwin Phelps, of Armstrong
county, died at his residence near Kit
tanning, on last week, Bth iust., in the
73rd year of his age. Mr. Phelps rep
resented this county in Congress, being
elected in 18C.8, when we were in a
district composed of Armstrong and
part of Allegheny county. He was
followed by Hon. E. Mc.lunkin, who
was first elected in 1870. Asa citizen
Mr. Phelps was a pure, high-toned,
genial gentleman, and much respected
by all who knew him. Ilis death is
very sincerly lamented by his neigh
bors ar.d the people of Armstrong
county very generally.
Taking the Census.
From the peculiar provisions of the
law passed by Congress for taking the
census of 1880, the first thing now to
lie done is the appointment of what
are termed the Supervisors, being a
hundred and fifty of them, and being
that number of districts in the whole
United States. Pennsylvania gets ten
of these, this county being one of
eleven counties in the Western part of
the State that compose the 10th Census
district. The pay of these Super
visors is so small that the positions are
not sought for very eagerly. But
when appointed, which niav be about
the first of January coming, they in
turn will have the appointment of
what are termed the enumerators.
These are the men who will have to
do the work. No one of them can
have a district, town or township, that
contains more than four thousand in
habitants, but may have less. The
first work of the Supervisor will be to
divide every county of his district
into these sub district parts, and
appoint an enumerator to make the
enumerations of the same. For that
purpose he will have personally to
visit every county of his district. Col.
Dick, our member of Congress, is
making every effort he can to have
the above Supervisor appointed from
one of the counties composing our
Congressional district, Butler, Mercer,
and Crawford counties. Whether he
may succeed in this cannot as yet be
known. As soon as the Supervisors
are appointed the work of dividing off
the different counties into sub districts
will, we suppose, commence. We give
the above information in answer to
numerous inquiries made of us. The
work of the enumerators is all to be
done in the month of June next.
Grant at Pitteburgb.
The welcome to ex-President Grant
at Pittsburgh is described by all as
grand and imposing. Thousands upon
thousands were present and every
thing passed off pleasantly. The
speeches made were in exceeding good .
taste, and overflowed with genuine
eloquence and literary merit. We
have not space for much that we
would like to give, but the welcoming j
remarks of ex-Chief Justice Agnew, <
and the reply of Gen. Grant, are so
fiue in sentiment that wc find room
for them. We copy from Pittsburgh
papers of Monday as follows:
The address of welcome was de
livered by ex-Chief Justice Agnew, ;
who, among other things, said :
SIR: While we greet your return j
from that world-wide visit, and con-1
gratulate ourselves upon the renown
you have brought, we view the cir
cumstances of this safe return with
more than common interest.
As we look we see one who, jour
neying through nations of every grade
and clime, civilized and barbarous,
over all waters, through all seasons,
and every vicissitude of nature, where
hot fevers burn and shivering agues
chill, among men of every hue and ;
stamp, now stands before us in safety ;
and in the glow of health and vigor of
manhood. Sir, you have not fallen a
prey to disease, or danger, or accident,
or brought home a broken and en
feebled frame. Thus standing, erect
and firm, surely some power above
has guided and guarded your foot
steps, and constantly held over and i
around you a shield and an armor of;
protection, such as no mortal could i
wield.
Sir, the Cod of Nations alone could
so guard and preserve a favored life, ;
for some wise purpose of Ilis own. |
What that purpose is, is now inscruta-!
bio —known to Him alOnc. Yet, that j
it will redound to the welfare and j
honor of this Union, we ali may wish !
and hope. But now we realize His j
superintending care in your safe re
turn, unaffected and untarnished, after
the highest honors ever heaped upon a
mortal man. Nor should I seek to
draw the viel aside, even though
visions, of a dazzling future to this
Nation and to you were filling my
eyes with prophetic light.
In reply, Gen. Grant said :
Mr. Chief Justice, Ladies and Gen
tlemen : —lt is a source of deep grati
fication to me that my course has been '
approved, so far as I have seen since
my return to this country, by my own
countrymen. It is also a source of
great gratification that in the years of.
my absence I have not suffered a day
of sickness or scarcely a pain, though
in my journey I have passed through
nearly every degree of latitude
from 1 to (51, and every longitude.
It is also a source of gratitude and
acknowledgement that a Power In
visible exerted a hand in the preserva
tion of that health. It is also a source
of gratification that the Europeau
nations and Eastern countries know so
well the history and grandeur and
resources of this country. It takes but
little observation to show that Ameri
cans are never ( able to appreciate the
magnitude own nation until !
they have traveled in foreign countries, j
In addressing so many audiences of
my conn try men. it is to be expected j
®|fje Put lee Uj?£#ml»e« tc,
j that I will rej>eat more or lc.»s of these
sentiments. Hut one thing is to lie
i said that in the contrast or comparison
\ with foreign countries, the point in
favor of this country is the great ease
with which a poor man can acquire a
; subsistence, as compared with those
j foreign countries—even in the most
: favored circumstances. We have a soil
which is very fertile and a territory
which is capable of furnishing food
and raiment for five hundred millions
without crowding each other so much
as in some of those Eastern nations.
This, too, serves to show how great
our country is, and should make our
people more patriotic and love <>ur
country better. With all this I have
one regret, and that is, that I cann >t
reply—respond to the able address
which I have just heard. I should be
better satisfied with myself if I could
rise to the occasion, and respond in the
eloquent manner with which I have
been addressed. Gentlemen and ladies
and .Mr. Chief Justice, I thank you all
for what I have heard and seen.
A Short Ssssicn.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Time* writing from Washington under
date of 10th iust., says as follows about
the present session of Congress and
the probable programme of the Demo
crats, who have a majority in both
Houses :
"The Democrats have been rubbing
their eyes for ten days past and they
have finally decided to advance with
cautious but steady step. Their way
is confessedly foggy, but it will grow
no brighter by standing still and tremb
ling over possible self-destruction. Two
days ago the only thing that seemed to
lie "settled was the postponement of all
Congressional action until alter the
holiday recess, but the Democrats have
suddenly straightened up, and they are
all for prudent and prompt work und a
short session. They will pass the for
tification, West Point and pension ap
propriations before the holiday adjourn
ment, and all seem to have been sud
denly electrified with the idea of ending
| the session by the first of May. The
tariff and financial questions are re
garded cs out of the way, and the Re
publicans arc quite as willing as the
Democrats to skip them until after the
Presidential election. The Republi
cans are not in condition to precipitate
any measure into Congress, and the
Democrats will be solely responsible
for the issues discussed during the
present session. The policy of the
majority seems now to be so far de
fined as to limit legislation to the
necessary appropriation bills, to an
effort for a repeal or a modification of
the Federal election laws, to a refusal
to make appropriations for supervisors
and marshals, if the President vetoes
their bill, and to enforce stubborn si
lence as the only response to Republi
can assaults upon the South. Jlow
long this programme will be adhered
to I will not venture to guess, but it is
likely to work so well for the Demo
crats that they may command univer
sal obedience from the hotspurs."
National Bank—Another Statement.
Having given our readers the state
ment lately made by the Receiver here
of the late National Bank, we now
give that of two former officers of the
same, which is intended as a counter
statement to that of the Receiver.
Wc wish to express no opinion, nor to
have any part in any controversy now
going on or that may take place con
cerning the affairs of this bank, but
there is one thing that perhaps should
be noticed, as it may serve, to a certain
extent, to reconcile the apparent differ,
enecs in these two statements, and that
is that Mr. Cullum gives its affairs at
the time it was closed, and as he found
them last July, when he was put in
charge. He does not seem to have
been asked and does not pretend to
give its present condition. He is col
lecting, and has declared a dividend,
and may for what we know soon dt -
clare another one, and must in due
time render an account of his steward
ship.
The following, by the late officers of
the bank, gives the present condition
of its affairs, or, in their opinion what
should l>e its present condition. They
say :
"The aggregate of his figures are in
the main correct, but it is the manner
in which he divides them up that we
object to, e.g.:
lie reports—
Notes wd bills discounted. good ■$ 1.558 6S
" " '* " wo.thless. 77.G81 44
Total *9<».319 09
Now the evident intention is to con
vey to the public the idea that of the
entire $99,319.0 ft of these notes only
$1,558.68 will be collected ; yet the
facts are, that between the 18th of
July, the date of the suspension of the
bank, and the 22nd day of November,
the date Mr. Cullum had this report
published, some $1(5,000 or over had
been paid on account of this $99,319.09
of notes, and he also well knew that a
large additional amount of the said
sum of $99,319.09 will IKJ realized
either by payment, composition or
sale of collaterals. His second item
of assets is reported as
Overdrafts doubtful $l4O 00
'• worthless 60 86
Total *2OO 86
Now, the facts as to this item are,
that something over $l3O of these
doubtful overdrafts were paid to Mr,
Cullum very shorly after he took
charge. Again, he reports amongst
the assets
Caeh items doubtful $299 00
" '• worthless 250 00
Total $5lO GO
We know, and Mr. Cullum also
knew, that this S2OO reported doubtful
was paid to him long before the publi
cation of his report. The $250 re
ported worthless is six months' interest
on $5,000 Butler Gas bonds owned by
the bank. Take another item in his
report:
Due from National Banks, good ■■S'l.o74 09
" «• " " uoubtful ... 767 78
Total *1,841 87
Tbis s7<>7.7S reported by Mr. Cul
lum as doubtful is owed to the First
National Bank of Butler, Pa., by the
German National Bank of the City of
Pittsburgh, one of the strongest banks
for the amount of its capital in the
city, and wc well know there is noth
ing doubtful about anything they owe,
notwithstanding Mr. C.'s report to the
contrary. Another item he reports : ,
Other stocks ami bauds doubtful if 8.475 0O
'• " •• " worthless ... 15,270 00
To'al ....... £*23.745 00
This item consists of $13,o00" K. C.
& li. R. R. bonds, $5,000 Harmony
National Bank stock, #5,000 Butler
Gas bonds, $1,900 Butler Gas stock.
Mr. C. treats this all as doubtful and
worthless. We give the items and
readers can judge for themselves. We
now take his report of the real estate,
which he makes out as follows :
lianking house and other real ejt-te
doubtful 512.97;, 00
1 Ranking house and ot!:er real estate
worth less 30,933 50
Total $43,960 5-1
How this amount of real estate can
be both doubtful and worthless we
; leave for Mr. Cullum to explain, but
we say that the real estate owned by
the bank consisted of the following:
1. Three-Btorv pressed brick building.
situate at the corner of Main and
Jefferson strsets in the borough
of liiitier, which ivithsife. furni
ture. Ac.. cost th-3 l ank $25,000 00
2. Distillery property in the borough
of Butler, two acres, frame
building, boiler, online: mash
tubs, machinery, .tc , stan.l 4 o:'
the books of the bank at C.'l 0 00
3. }-i of 4H acres (Clynu r property) in
ths borough of Butler, which c >st
the bank 4 030 00
4. Brug'u propelty iu Allegheny City.
which rents l'or $24 per month... 4.000 00
5. J.,' of lit acres v Alex. Storey farm)

6. of 105 acr. 9 . f Und in Brady
township, Butler county, I'a., cost
the bank 2,500 00
7. Several small pieces in different
places, which cost the bank . 403 50
Tot d «U~9C3 60
Why does Mr. C. report all this prop
erty as being doubtful and worthless'?
In addition to thr> above real estate
owned by the bank proper they also
owned the following, same having
been conveyed to the bank by Charles
McCandless to apply on his endorse
ments, viz.: 3 houses and lots in the
borough of Butler, \ of 48 acres C'ly
mer property in the borough of Butler,
! t of SO acres of land in Marion township,
Butler county. The property when
sold will be credited on the notes and
bills discounted reported by Mr. Cul
lum as worthies?, and while we cannot
place an estimate on the property, we
are satisfied that several thousand dol
lars will be realized from this source.
Believing it due to the creditors of
the bank that they should be apprised
of the facts set forth in the above state
ment, we respectfully submit the same
for their consideration.

BUTLER, PA., Dec. 12, I*7o.
Messrs. Editors —Being the own
ers of the J. C. Lee patent right in the
county of Butler, in answer to an arti
cle inserted in your paper of last issue,
we would say that we are not collect
ing on the Teal or Joel Lee patents,
both of which are roller gates, but only
on the J. C. Leo patent Field Fence
and (rate combined, the validity of
which, we are credibly informed, was
tested in the Circuit Court at Ypsilanti,
Michigan, and decided in favor of the
patent, and that we arc willing to test
our right with any one using our patent
and refusing to settle for the same.

Unsettled Russia.
BERLIN, Dec. 10.—The well-in
formed St. Petersburg correspondent
of the National Xeituny says he thinks
that the Russian Imperial Council
which was to have been held yester
day, under the presidency of the Em
peror, was summoned not so much to
| consider the question of peace or war
as how best to retire from the present
diplomatic attitude of aggression. A
new war would produce au explosion
calculated to shatter the whole organ
ism of tho tftate. The last war proved
that foreign enterprises do not remove
the peril involved in the passive op
position of society to the present sys
tem of government—a peril greater
than the desperate conspiracies of the
Nihilists.
Intelligence from St. Petersburg
says: "Another number of the new
revolutionary journal, entitled The
Will of the People, has baen distrib
uted in St. Petersburg and other
parts of Russia. This number was
printed subsequeLt to the re.'e .t court
martial and contains comments o:i the j
trial of tho Nihilist Mursky."' The |
None Vermya, of St. Petersburg, '
states that the Governor of that citv
has ordered every housohoulder to dis
play a red lamp before his door nightly
bearing the number of the house.
LONDON, Dec. ll.—The Standard's
Vienna correspondent reports that
great excitement prevails at St. Peters
burg. The gendarme and police forces
have been largely increased. They
incessantly patrol the streets of the
city and are especially numerous and
vigilant near the Winter Palace.
These circumstances indicate that fresh
attempts upon the life of the Czar are
anticipated.
M. Walujeff, who was formerly a fa
vorite with the Czar and the author of
various reform plans, has now fallen
into complete disgrace, the Czar hav
ing Hung his constitutional projects
into the lire when M. Walujeff sub
mitted them, and dismissed M. Walu
jeff himself. Prince Gortschakotf and
M Giers have regained all their for- :
mer influence. M. Markoff, Home
Secretary, will probably be dismissed,
and General Ijruatieff designated as
Chief of the Asiatic Department of the
Ilussian-Statc Chancellery.
The New*' Berlin dispatch says:
"A St. Petersburg letter states that on
the same day the Czar arrived at St.
Petersburg the revolutionary commit
tee issued a most violent proclamation,
which is being distributed daily, and
in which they avow that the late
attempt on the Czar's life was made by
their order, and though the attempt
failed they are not disheartened, but
are ready to try again."'
Eating His Own Flesh.
OTTAWA, Ont., Dec. 10.—A shock
ing case of neglect has just come to
light in Hull, near this city. A youth
of 17 years of age was taken down
with small-pox and his family deserted
him. The neighbors, hearing of it,
went to the house where he was stop
ping, with a bow lof soup. On enter
ing the room they found the youth
covered with blood and almost at the
point of death. The soup being placed
to his lips he ravenously swallowed it.
An examination showed that he had
eaten the flesh from one of his arms in
his agony of hunger. He died a few
minutes after the arrival of the neigh
bors.

Thrilling Scene at a Meeting of the
Uto Commission.
I INDIANS ANO WHITES KRONTINU EACH
OTHER WITH IfANDS ON TIIKIII WEA
PONS—T:r: CONDITIONS UPON WHICH
THE UTF.S WILL IJE SURRENDERED.
Special despatches to tin; Denver
Tribune from Les Pinos, dated the
<)th, represent that <>n Saturday there
! were some decidedly animated oceur
: rences at the Commissioners' meeting,
j After Jack had declined to inform the
Commissioners what Indians had been
■ concerned in the White River massa
j ere, the Indians retired to Ouray's
: house to debate what course to pursue.
| No Indians appeared at the agency
| until Saturday, but they seem to have
j been engacd at Ouray's in conducting
the wildest dance, and in making lierv
speeehes. -V man was sent from the
agency to Ouray's with feed for the
horses of the Indians, and judged from
the noise 011 the inside that the Indians
were greatly excited. Those he saw
were bedecked in feathers and war
paint, and he was so frightened that he
turned back and did not deliver the
hay. On Saturday at noon the L T tes
came into the agency, and touk seats
inside the agency buiidiug. Jack, Col
orow, anil twelve other White River
Utes, and of course Ouray (having
been among the Indians) were present.
When Ihe Indians and the Commis
sioners had taken seats Gen. Hatch ad
dressed the Indians, setting forth the
full demands of the Commissioners,
their right to make the demands, and
the patience already exercised with the
I'tes. "To-day," he said, "is your last
chance. We will wait 110 longer. We
want your final answer, and we want
no evasions." The list of ihe Utes
charged by the agency women with
! taking part in the massacre was then
| read, and the question put by Gen.
j Hatch: ''Will you surrender the men
whose names are in this paper to be
tried, and if guilty punished, and if i:.-
noeent acquitted?" The question was
put twice, and after a consultation, eva
j sive answers were returned both times.
When the question was repeated the
' third time Ouray replied without eon
j suiting the other I'tes: "How do we
know that these Indians you name
were at White River at the time of the
massacre, or even if they were there
we do not know they were concerned in
it. These women mentioned names
which came first to their lips, whether
they know them to have been present
or not. We cannot depend on what
they say."
" That is what wc depend on," said
Gen. Hatch.
Gen. Adams then addressed the In
dians, making a speech of over an
hour's duration, saying, among other
things that the Commissioners did not
want to punish Colorow, Jack, and
others who took part in the Thornburgh
fight, but the cowardly dogs who par
i ticipated in the massacre of the unarm
ed men at the agency. He closed bv
saying: "We want those Utes and we
will have them."
The Indians held a consultation in a
low tone of voice among themselves,
but did not seem inclined to reply at all.
Then Gen. Hatch again rose and asked
whether the guilty Indians were to be
surrendered, saying that he had made
the last appeal.
No one moved or spoke for a few
moments. Then Colorow lighted a big
pipe, the "pipe of peace." Each Indian
present drew his knife and laid it on hid
i knees, the question of peace or war
being the one pending. Colorow then
passed the pipe to the next man with
out smoking, and it went round the
circle. When the circle was finished he
jumped to his feet, straightened up to
his full height, pulled his belt around
until the knife sheath was in front, and
snatching his knife out, threw it quiv
ering and ringing upon the floor. In
stantly every Indian present laid his
hand upon his knife or pistol, the
whites following their example. The
two parties stood fronting and defying
each other for some moments, each
waiting for the other to make some for
ward movement. There were only six
white men in the room, while the In
dians numbered twenty-live, though
there were fifteen soldier* in an adjoin,
ing room. Finally Ourav spoke:
"We cannot deliver up those Indians
unless they are tried in Washington; j
thev must not be tried iu Colorado. J
The Colorado people are all our en
emies, and to give them up to be tried j
in this State would hang them. Wo j
will bring those twelve men here for
you to sec,and 'hen those whom you de
cide guilty shall be taken to Washing,
ton, and the President shall determine
their guilt or innocence Douglass will
have to go. We know he was in the
White River troubles, and you shall
decide who else. Upon this condition,
and no other, will ye surrender the
twelve men."
The chief spoke with great boldness.
Ouray added that it would require
about a week to bring the men in.
(Jen. Hatch told him that he accepted j
the proposition as far as bringing the I
men in was concerned, but as for tak
ing them to Washington, he would have
first to telegraph Secretary Schurz to
get permission to do so before he could
agree to take the Indians East.
Colorow and Jack were immediately
despatched to bring in the twelve
named, including Douglass and Per

five days. After they had gone, Ouray
again spoke, reiterating his belief that
the Utes could not get justice in Colo
rado, and could only get it in Wash
ington.
"You three," said Ouray, meaning
Gens. Hatch and Adams and their legal
adviser, Valois, "arc all my enemies.
I am one against three. You hate me.
You are all Colorado or New Mexico
men and a French devil. 1 have not
one friend among you. \ou will not

Abolishing Slavery in Cuba.
MADRID, Pee. .">.—Tbe Cabinet Coun
cil lias approval the reports of the Son
ate committer <>n the bill for the alioli
tioll of slavery in Cuba. The Govern
ment has decided to dispatch several
small war vessels to Culia. A council
of Ministers was held to-day to discuss
the report of the Senate committee,
which was read in the Senate to-day.
| HAVANA, Dec. .">.—Accounts from
Madrid say that the home <rovernment
is satisfied with the proceedings <>f
Captain (Jeneral Blanco. Premier
Martinez Campos cannot leave Spain
before the legislative measures lor the
establishment of reforms in Culta have
j been adopted. The return to power of
| Se-ior Canovas del Castillo would con
stitute a political error incalculable as
to its results. Reforms in Cuba cannot
have a possible solution with elements
| contrary to reform entering the Cnbi
j net. It is the irrevocable intention of
(K'neral Martinez Camp »s to carry out
! his projects relative to Cuba, if de
; feated in the Cortes it is believed that
! he will advise the dissolution of that
j body rather than resigu.
A Great Storm Out West.
ST. I'AUI.. Minn., l>cc 10.—A Fargo
I special to the Pioneer Press says the
i hardest storm in the history of the
j Northern Paeific Railroad prevails all
j along the line from Bismarck to Dulutli,
| over an area four hundred miles square,
i The snow is one foot deep on a level
and drifts four feet. Trains were all de
layed and business in the town is stop
ped. It is feared casualties to settlers
in exposed premises will result.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 10.—A very severe
windstorm passed over the town of
Renick, Randolph county, Mo., yester
j day evening. The residence of Byrd
j Pyte was torn to pieces, every member

ries from which she died last night.
The dwelling house of Xoah Burkherd

fences, trees, etc., destroyed.
Oil Weil at Plain Grovo.
Pr.Aix GROVK, Lawrence Co., l>cc.
13, 1879.—At the well now being
drilled for oil on the Hamilton farm,
near this place, the drillers struck the
stray saud at 1212 feet, with a good
show of oil and gas. They were down
at noon to-day 12G0 feet and show slate
anil sand which is believed by W. S.
Biddle, an experienced driller, from

CANCER.
Tlii.s disease like many others is regarded
as incurable. It is not so. If it is taken in
time it is as easily cured as a wart or a corn.
We know very well that it is a fearful disease
aad will eat away until it destroys life, that
is if it is neglected, but if it is attended to
when it first makes its .;}>;u'a r univ, or soon
after, there is no trouble iu eradicating it
from the system. lVr-ion ; will have to be here
during part of t!i • treatment, consequently
there is no use writing to me for information
whether it e.tn b ■ cured without my seeing the
case. I also treat with siveess, Rupture, I'iles,
Fistula, Ulcers, Ulcerated legs, Varicose Veins,
Varicocele Tumors, Ilydr.s'eie, and every form
of Skin Disease.
