His body was kept on board at the request of the Mor mons, and the Board of Health gave a permit to have it taken to Utah. A Mor mon song of thanks to the officers of the Nevada was composed and . sung, on board. Elder W. C. Staines, the Mor mon agent in New York, saw the immi grants safely depart for their new homes in the West. , Fatal Effects of the Hot Weather In St. Louis. St. Louis, Mo., July 15. There is no abatement In the intensity of the heat. The mercury now Indicates 08 degrees, and in some instances 102 degrees in the business streets, and every one not com pelled to be out keep in doors. . Thirty cases of sunstroke, or prostration from the heat, have been reported to-day, and there have been nine deaths from those causes. " . . ": St. Louis, July 10. The heat is still lntense,but up to noou to-day there have been fewer cases of sunstroke than for three days past. Only fifteen cases were treated at the city dispensary this morn ing and only three deaths reported eo far. The total number of deaths from yesterday was 54. The effects of the pro longed heat are now being felt by a dif ferent class of people than at first Scores of merchants, professional men, clerks, salesmen and many women are becoming sufferers, and prostration of more or less degree are numerous In all parts of the city. Even children are falling vlctims,and the mortality among infants is greater than was ever known, except In time of epidemics. Two horses of Undertaker Coffee fell dead in the streets while conveying the bodies of two victims to the cemetery. Undertaker Smithers lost threehorses In the same service. The War in Oregon. San Francisco, July 14. The fol lowing startling letter has just been re ceived from Pendleton by Governor Chadwick, of Oregon : We have, been having exciting times here to-day. . Hos tile Indians are in force on the reserva tion. Geo. Coggan, of Portland, and Al Bunker, of La Grand, were . shot this afternoon, about six miles from here, on the stage road to Cayuse. Coggan was killed and Bunkor is supposed to be mortally wouuded. Fred. Foster was with them and only got away by luck. Bunker rode with him about two miles after be was shot, when they were com pelled to part Foster brought the news and we started a team, with fourteen men as an escort, to go for Bunker. They got as far as Chief Wincumonat's arm, when they were attacked and driven back, Bfter exchanging a number of shots. ' ' ' i i i The Indians are about one hundred and fifty strong and the Unlntlllns are undoubtedly fighting with them. I Maj. Connover was with the party and thinks they killed one Indian, M he was seen to tall from his horse. The Cayuse House was pillaged and burned.' Our stage station Was not burned at dark. Captain Miles' command will reach the agency to-night ' His soldler'B are ex hausted, and should they go to the agency, thinking the Umatlllas are all right, they may get the worst of it Our families are at the mill and Court House and the town is well guarded." Colonel Efllnger, of this city, has Just received the following dispatch from Governor Chadwick, dated Umatlllas, July 13: I have made a call for 300 volunteers. Take those of Captain Sears 100, of Port land, equipped by the citizens. See that be has men, not go much for number, but for courage, activity and endurance. Short work, boys. I will get the balance here. The Governor's proclamation calling outvoluuteers In substance recites as the condition of affairs that all friendly In dians will go to the hostiles whenever they find that they can be successful against the whites; that all friendly In dians, with few exceptions, are midnight allies of the hostiles, and aid them in re moving stolen stock and plunder ; that their promises and pledges of friendship cannot be relied upon, as they have mis led settles and soldiers and have acted as spies and scouts for the hostiles. He further cautions the volunteers against doing any act not justified by the cus toms governing modern warfare. The men will be raised in Eastern Oregon. A Sawdust Swindler Taken In. The following letter received by Sup't Walliiig indicates that a resident of South Carolina has had $7 in genuine money sent him by a sawdust swindler as an inducement to come to New York and be duped 5 . " i : Johnston, S. C, July 11, 1878. Chief of 1'olice, JV'etw York City. Dear Sin : I received a confleden tlal letter a few weeks since froiri a man In your city promising to sell me coun terfeit money. I answered and told him I would trade for a lot of it, &c, but he must first send me a sample before I could believe that he had it, as I had often had such letters from different par ties. He then sent me a sample of $7 a two-dollar bill and a five-dollar bill. We have no bank here, but I have shown it to all the merchants and they say they could not tell the difference. Would I not be allowed a reward by as sisting to arrest him V He does not send his money by express, but says I have to come on and he will tell me precisely where to find him, Ac. If there is any thing to be made by my going to the trouble please answer. I think he can be arrested by my coming on. Yours, W. H. Foster. Johnston's, 8. C, C, C. and A. RR. Judge Deam and the Druggists. The Altoona " Tribune" says? Judge Dean, of this county, in sentencing druggists recently for selling liquor with out license, had this to say ; Druggists are authorized to sell liquor for medical purposes, subject, however, to the risk of indictment. A physician's prescription is not of Itself a safeguard for the druggist If the latter, even on the prescription of a regular physician, sells liquor to persons of known intem perate habits, or to those who areknown to use liquor as a beverage, he is liable to indictment, and if found guilty, will be punished to the extent of the law. In short, in the opinion of the court, a druggist who sells liquor for any per pose whatever, or upon the prescription of the most eminent . physician in the county, does so at his own risk. . OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington; D. C, July 18, 1878. There is never a session of Congress but has its scandal. In the last it was of Representative Acklen and Mrs. Godfrey. A year before it was a relative to Mr. White, and the sear before that It was Bolknap and bis wife. Nobody's character is too sacred to be smirched in these days. News paper reporters get so driven to the wall for news that they pass ' beyond decency's bounds, for the Bake of getting an item. Interviewing has become a profession in which he succeeds best who dares be ' most impertinent.' Confidential letters ' and in terviews are reported, private communica tions are published, indeed, there is no such thing, nowadays, as privacy. An enter tainment intended to be strictly private, given by a public man or woman, is pried into and heralded to the public, from the one that was drunk down to the number of a lady's slipper. The curiosity of the times allows nothing of note to escape publicity. An interviewing reporter here (very suc cessful with bis paper and of much value to bis employers) has been known to in vade a bed-chamber for an item, bore a hole in the ceiling to hear the evidence of an investigating committee, and even to hide under a desk in the Correspondent's Gal lery iu the Senate Chamber to take down what was said in Executive session. ' This is a fast growing evil. ' No longer ago than Buchanan's time, the disclosure of what took place in Cabinet meetings was con sidered a heinous offense, and would have been swiftly followed by great severity. At the breaking out of tho war, something was said about what transpired at a Cabinet meeting which refleoted seriously upon Buchanan's reputation. Beo. Stanton and Gen. Holt, Cabinet members, wrote to the President volunteering to publish over their signatures a statement of what took place at that particular meeting, and thus refute the fcoahdal. t But Buchanan, thanking them replied, " Cabinet meetings are secret and confidential, and I will not penult the disclosure of what took place, even to vindicate myself." Neither the adjournment of Congress, the quietude of the Potter Committee, nor the grand stampede from town caused by the inteuse heat of the last 20 days, have anyeffeot upon the new party-working-men's, national communists, or whatever they may he called, .i Out-of-doors meetings continue, at which great crowds assemble and long harangues are indulged in, the speaker's usually rejoicing that they "work for a living" and " don't own a dollar in the world." lien Butler appears to be the favorite of this class. Ho is undoubtedly laying his wires for the leading of the National party should it gain power in the land. I don't know why Gen. Butler is called "the widow" and " AVldow Butler," but such is his appellation far and wide, t do not know the significance if there is any. The man is a widower, to bo sure, but so are numbers of our Congressmen. Bluff and rough as Ben Butler la, low and coarse in many cases as be is, away down in his deepest nature there is tenderness, refinement and true gentleness. ' This is shown by his great love of flowers and by his tender love and care of his home friends. His children and relatives idolize him. We appear to be having the hot days all in a bunch this season. It is to bo hoped so, at least, the last 23 days have been too hot for any comfort The noticeable effect of the heat is the exodus from the city it has caused. A great number of the 0000 Government Clerks have already ' vaoated their desks for a month or two. Few of the high officials' familios are left in town. Sec. Evarts is on his Vermont farm, Sec Bcburz is at Deer Park, Md. The Presi dent is at Soldiers Home. The people who are left in the city aro here from necessity rather than preference, and are exlstlug rather than living. Olive. Miscellaneous News Items. Quincv, 111., July 15. Between yester day morning and laBt evening there were seven cases of sunstroke in this city, ' four of which proved fatal. A German named August Stephens, of Red Wing, Minnesota, committed sui cide by jumping from a f8t running pas senger train near Pittsburg. tW John L. Summons, a farmer of Poeetcnkill, N. Y., was burned to death a few days ago while trying to save a horse from a buruiug barn. EST" At JohnBtown one . of Thomas Kinney's feet was caught between the rails, and being unable to extricate it several cars passed over him, indicting fatal in juries. , , 63T" A man named Ludwig, aged sixty six years, rolled out of his bed through a second story window on the pavement be low in Pittsburg and sustained dangerous injuries. . i (W A wretch chained a horse to the track of the Pennsylvania railroad near Johnstown, a day or two Bince, which was released just in time to. escape a passing express train. gT Charles A. Molbauer and a man named Springer were probably fatally in jured at Philadelphia on Monday during a fight among the partisans of rival claim ants to the ownership of a yacht. ' tW W. II. Morrison, a carpenter, laid down in his shop at Pittsburg with his face resting on a coat He was found dead during the day nd is supposed to have been smothered. London, July 10. The nailmakers to the number of 10,000 in the Old Hill, Dud ley, Rowley and Halesowen districts have struck for an advance of thirty per cent, in their wages. Ten thousand more will be in the strike by the end of the week. t&" The Cincinnati, "Commercial" says : " There is a lady living at Fort Jefferson who recently gave birth to trip lets. Two of them are as white as the mother, and one is as black as any negro." Perhaps the mothor herself is black. tW A young man name d James Gilles pie was killed by lightning at Buck moun tain near Hazleton on. Friday. He -was standing in the engine house at the head of the plane, when the bolt shot through the middle of the roof, struck bim and passed through the floor. ; ; - E2T" On last Saturday, several tramps entered a wheat field near Enon, O., and commenced to destroy a reaper while the hands were at dinner. . The owner hearing the raoket went to the field, taking with him a shotgun and opened fire upon the scamps, who hastily fled to the woods. That is the medicine with which farmers should dose such scoundrels when they make an attempt to destroy property. Baltimore, July 10. Robert Dunafan, or Donovan, aged 31 years, was killed this morblng at Gunpowder river bridge, on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore railroad. The deceased was one of a large party of excursionists' who left Linwood, near Chester, Pa., this morning for liar wood park, Md., and it is said was "sky. larking" with others on the platform of a car when he was knocked undor the train and his body out In twain by the Wheels. tW ThO small black pohy belonging to Herbert Miller, son of Dr. R. A. Miller of Huntingdon, met with a sad death on Thursday night last Some time during the night it got its halter chain around its neck, and being unable to extricate itself, it was found dead in the stable the next morning, having been strangled. This was the smallest pony in the oounty, and was a great favorite with the Dr.'s family, in whose possession it had been for a number of years. ! O" While Mrs. Val. Bush, of Juniata twp., Huntingdon county, was making preparations to get dinner for tho harvest hands the other day, sho took from the closet a pot that she bad not been accus tomed to use, and setting it on the hot stove went to wipe it out (as all good cooks will do), when she discovered that there was a live snake in it. Not knowing what to do, she called a couple of neighbor wo mon, and thon the three armed themselves with clubs, boes, etc, and waited for Mr, Snake to bounce out of the pot that by this time had got pretty hot. But he did not get out, and was cooked alive, when he was removed without any further trouble. The pot has since remained idle. t"The Gainesville, Ga., "Southron" snys : A case of wifo whipping was tried before Esquire Simpson last week, In the lower part of the county, It appears that young Mr. O. and wife had planted a water melon patch in partnership be furnished the ground and she doing the work. There was one particularly preoocious melon iu tho patch which had been set aside for a family feast as it should reach maturity, but the husband and his father, it Beems, covertly spirited away the large melon and ate it, whereupon the wife be came irate and threatened to pull up the balance of the vines, which she immediate ly proceeded to do. The husband inter fered with a six-foot root, hence the suit ; husband acquitted. ' FITS I FITS I The undersigned having purchased the property formerly owned by J.
