JUNE 27, 1878. Herald Steam Printing House. Tbe Herald Steam Printing House la not surpassed by any Job Printing office i on tbe Pacific Coast, outside of San Fran olaoo, In facilities for doing Job work. Low prices, good work and expedition nay be relied upon at this office. A Comsiese World. Tlie panic of Vienna ushered in our panic of 1873. Wo now look back over five years and a fraction of unexampled commercial pros tration. It has not been confined to j any seotion of the globe. Calami ties exceptional in the spread of I distress following upon them have j been noted from the Coromandel and Ganges to the Rhine and Dan ube. Germany, with a thousand million dollars of French indem nity, has been lamentably poor, Md she ie poorer now than ever. Russia is so much of a pauper that, with victorious legions numbered - by the half million, she has allowed | herself to be bullied by England. Turkey is a pauper, and the Eng lishmen who have lent her money are now repenting their liberality in sack-cloth and ashes. Tbe en i terprislng IChediv of Egypt has Borrowed and built and improved until he, too, with all the resources of his highly developed Nile valley —a region whose fertility is coeval with the world's ascertained his tory—is as poor as a church mouse. Tbe new Kingdom of Italy, with , all its aspirations tinged from the classic days away back (o Romulus and Remus, and with all its new born aspirations, is a helpless bankrupt. Not all tbe commerce of the Adriatic, nor all the resour cer of a diversified nationality wbloh counts up thirfy-five or forty different languages and ' Idioms, have rescued Austria from jf' a state which may justly be called bankruptcy. Spain, having no credit, is practically out of the count, but Spain has poured out her last dollar, and sacrificed al most her last attainable man, to bold on to the Island of Cuba, which she to-day, notwithstanding lieca | tombs of slain, on one side and tbe other, holds by v most un certain tenure. England lias im { mense accumulated wealth, but 1 abe is confronted with the fact that . her Cornish mlues are already at > a depth which makes further labor ' almost impossible, and tbe most •anguine "calculators and econo mists," to employ the phrase of Edmund Burke, do not dare to ad vance tbe practicability of her coal supply much beyond Ihe opening of tbe twentietli century, which is now only about twenty - two , ssais distant. England Is further menaced by tbe fact that Ameri can cutlery, in the past three years, has uudersold the English staple in Birmingham itself, and American cotton prints have uu dersold the English in Manchester. Sixty years' accumulations will last the Euglish some time, under any circumstances, but the drift of things is against the long contin ued supremacy of England in the commercial world. The only nation in Europe which has made a conspicuously gratify ing record iv the past five years is France. Notwithstanding the Franco-Prussian' war, France has paid her indemnity and has about got it all back. She presents the spectacle of tbe 0110 aggressive, . prosperous nation iv the world during the period we have re viewed. in face of these facts it certainly becomes an interesting question as to bow the future looks for the United States. We confess that we think we have reached the end of the lane and that the turn is just at baud. The transition from Ihe flush times of the war to the steady going pace or peace has al ready been almost accomplished. We have guarantees for the future which are almost conclusive. In the single State of Pennsylvania we have deposits of both • bituminous aud anthracite coal which over-./ • all tbe as certained coal measures of the world put together. In addition, tlie coal measures of Virginia, of Ohio, of In liana, Tennessee, Illi noie, Missouri, and other States and Territories, are almost inex haustible. Our supply of all the base metals, Iron, copper, lead, etc., are Inconceivably large. Even on the Pacific Coast our Iron, coal and copper mtasures are prodigious. But, on the Pacific Coast, in addi tion to all these, we have deposits of silver aud gold which discount any record heretofore established on earth, and which dwarf the sto ries told of the ancient Ophir. These deposits in our time are practically illimitable. Bonanza after bonanza will be discovered, and half a duzeu bonanzas at a time will frequently be witnessed contributing together their stores of solid c iiu to the arteries of com meree, iv tlie next Ally yeais. These facts, taken in connection with the extent and the eponta uiety of our agriculture und the vigor of our mutiufnctures, lead us lo look for the next marked com mercial, industrial aud fiscal re vival of an at present comatose world iv the United States, aud notably lv tbat portion of the GENTLEMEN AND BOY'S |PURNISH[ING GOODS, the Very Best Assortment in United States known as California. We have waited quite a while for tbe light to break, and we think it is breaking now. Notwithstand ing the lugubrious prophecies of Prof. Gunning, we think Its first beams will be shed from the Corn stock lode. Nevada will bo In the van of tbe States of the American Union which will bring us back to the old conditions of prosperity, and California will be almost neck and neck with Nevada. We think the present year is the dividing line between a very bright and au unquestionably gloomy era of our history. One of Ihe most interesting fea tures of the Potter Investigation is the ardor with which Gen. BeojA" mlv F. Butler has thrown himself into the bußiuess of ascertaining tbe facts—the cold, steel-biue facts —of that case. A corrupt witness— who has admitted enough to damn himself aud his eniployerj—char acterized Ben as a "rowdy." We much mistake tlte signs of tbe times or tbe American people are thoroughly partial lo such " row dies." It will probably not be dis puted that tho Herald has occa sionally been severe on the Repub lican party. But we have always been careful to tuako reservations. The Republican party may be be trayed by its leaders, but there is a still email voice of conscience in tbat organization which will be repelled by evidences of double dealing aud chicane. What tbe American people de-ire ia not to sac Johu Sherman, or the Visiting Statesmen, triumph by a techni cality in wbloh personal and po litical honor is sunk although the penalties of the law may be es caped, but to see evidence that the Republicans sent by Grant to Lou isiana were not outright shysters. Ben Butler sympathizes, although a Republican, with this gcuuine American impulse; aud, from the bottom of our heart?, we honor bim. Tliero may have been, in tha last fifteen or sixteen years, a mislaid spoon or two, but it is pleasant to know that the heart of the Essex statesman is in the right place. By Monday the deadly uncer tainty which lias attended the re sult of the Constitutional election will be dissipated. On that day the several Boards of Supervisors of tho State meet and cast up Ihe totals of the vole. One thing seems to be conceded, nnd that is that (hose of the Non-Partizan ticket for delegates at large who had uot only that nomination but either a straight Democratic or a stiaiglit Republican one, are elected. It is not straining hope to expect that Col. Ayers, aud a few othets of the Non-Partizan nominee* who did not have this ad vantage, will also be elected. Col. Ayers himself thinks that tho chances lie between him aud Mr. Tully, of Santa Clara couuty. It is gratifying to realize that our neighbor, Arizona, is advanc ing with a lightning speed ou tbe path of mineral development. Forty bars of bullion in tho offlce of Wells, Fargo & Co., iv Los An geles, is one of thosd earnests of progress which are continually emanating from that promising territory. We predict that, year after next, in the treasure outcome of the coast, the summary will read Nevada, California and Ari zona, iv the order named. LAST NIGHT'S NEWS. |v tlie HeriM by the Wes'ei a till In n Telegraph I '<>m)>an> -1 Pacific Coast News. Victory Over tlie luillH.ua." Han Francisco, June 26th.—A Silver City dispatch says that the issault made by tlie Indians at Lurry Creek turns out to be a sue ;ess. It was a surprise to the sav iges, about forty of whom were killed. The soldiers were very :00l in the charge. The Indian force present was estimated at 700, aut it probably was not so much, rhe Indians retreated to their stronghold in Stein mountain. Howard, with tlie forces at his personal command, is making 45 miles a day, aud will effect a junc tion with Bernard to-night. It is estimated that the whole force of savage warriors number 2000. One hundred and three camp tires were counted. The Indians will be pur sued, and there is every prospect of a protracted campaign, as the Stein mountain country is well adapted for defensive operations. Tbe Rutro runnel Almost cuii |>lettd.

Ban Francisco, June 20th.—A Silver City dispatch says: Tlie In dian camp, comprising a large number of squaws, papooses and old Indians, recently discov ered by some stock men, about twenty-five miles from camp Lyon, belongs to the hostiles. Those peo ple bave been left there for safe keeping until the battles are Mu lshed. Volunteers will probably go out and rout them if Major Eg bert's force does not. A Boise city dispatch says the force under Col. Bernard in Ihe re cent fight, Including scouts, num bered about 200 men. Tbe number of the 11ulI ins Is unknown. One of General Howard's scouts arrived here yesterday from Bo nanza City, iv Lieuapl county. He reports that on Thursday last the mall carrier between Salmon City and Bonanza brought intelligence that Indians belonging to Ten Days' band of Bannocks had mur dered the herders of Col. Sboup and others who were herding stock on Cimirine creek, near Salmon City, about sixty miles dlstaut from Bonanza. Two of the bodies of the murdered men had been fouud and there were others miss ing. This news ores ted intense ex citement and the mines aud ranches of that i-cctioii wero being abandoned. Ton Days' baud numbers several hundred warriors belonging nominally to tbe l.ietulii reservation, but having their h.Hints and bunting grouutlsamong the settlers on upper Salmon river and iv adjoining sectious of Mon tana. These Indiaus have beeu foraging till discontented, though protessing friendship for tbe whites. They are now probably all ou the warpath. Jinn;*, il Ooih Mini AilJuuriiiiK'Ul of Murk Btinrill.

A large part of his band Is composed of renegades from other tribes. The Indians on the reservations sym pathize with Moses with but few exceptions and in case of an out break Moses would be reinforced by 4000 or 5009 reservation Indians. It this should be the case it would take 20,000 troops to capture him. Moses says lie doesn't want to right, but if tlie whites want to light he is ready ami if he is taken to the reservation he will be taken there dead. s-euleaic* (I lo be Ilrtiiaril.

Washington, June 20.—Owing to tbe pressure of current business and the importance of the ques tions involved, very little progress has yet been made in the prepara tion of instructions by tbe General Land Office to carry Into effect the recently enacted laws providing for the sale of Pacific Coast timber lauds and for the free use of timber in the territories for specified do mestic purposes. The delay in the final preparation aud promulgation of the necessary instructions will probably continue about a fort night. Improved v: aelinii a Kxutblf. New York, Juno 26th.—The Public says tlie third week iv Juue gives very satisfactoty returns of banking exchanges. At nineteen cities, for the week ending June 22d, a loss of only one per cent, ap pears as compared with tho corres ponding week of last year. There Is still some loss at most of the chief commercial cities, but His to be noted in every case, excepting at Pittsburg and Providence, that tlie loss is smaller than the ascer tained decrease in prices. Boetuu Wool Market. Boston, June 25th. —Wool mar ket unchanged. Fair demand from manufacturers, but no pressure to buy beyond for immediate wants; prices continue to rule quite low. California wool iv fair Demand at 20@30 for spring; IG@lB for fall; superior aud X pulled wools steady and selling at 23@10, mostly from 35@38. Illlui.ls R«<puulle»u CuaTesllou, Springfield, Ills., July 20th.— The Republican State Convention ivas called to order at noon by A. 0. Babcock, Chairman of the State Central Committee. William A. James, of Lake couuty, was chosen temporary chairman. On taking the chair he briefly recalled tbe services and triumphs of the Re publican party in every State and National crisis, and urged tbat there be no weak or uncertain timber in the platform which was to be constructed by this Conven tion. After the appointment of tlie usual committees the Conven tion took a recess until 2 o'clock. Upon re-assembling none of the committees belnj; ready to report, a speech was made by General Hurlburt, alter which the Com mittee on Permanent Organization reported C. E. Llpplncott as Presi dent, with a long list of Vice Pres idents. Candidates for State Superin tendent of Publio Instruction were then put in nomination and Slade was nominated on the second bal lot. General B. C. Smith was nominated for State Treasurer on tbe second ballot. Following are tbe nominations for clerks of the Supreme Court: Northern Grand Division, E. F. Dutton; Central Division, M. B. Converse; South ern Division, Aden Knoppy. Tho platform deolares frith in the principles and patriotism of the Kepublioau party, State and Na tional, and iv its permaneut fitness and ability over all other parlies to administer the government of both State aud Nation wisely and suc cessfully; tbat the Democratic pat ty, bclug largely composed of re cent rebels and their sympathizers, cannot be safely entrusted with the administration of the Government; the permanent pacification of tbe Southern section of tlie Uniou and complete protection of all its citi zens in all their civil, political and personal rights is a duty to which the party stands sacredly pledged. In order to redeem this pledge it placed the recent amendments in the Constitution of tho Unit ed States and upon the righteous base of said amendments it will go forward in the work of pacification uutii peace shall come through right doing aud content ment through justice; that the criminal code shall be amended for the protectiou of depositors in sav ings banks by providing for the punishment of dishonest bank managers. Finally, be it Resolved, That those who pre served tlie couutry should govern it instead of those who attempted to destroy it. The platform was unanimously adopted. Columbus, Juno 26.—The Dem ocratic State Convention re assem bled at 21. M. Durbin Ward was chosen permanent Cuairman and E. 8. Dodd, of Toledo, Secretary. The following ticket was nomi nated: For Secretary of State, David B. Ray; Supreme Judge, A. T. Hume. Tlie following platform was adopted: The Democratic party of Ohio re affirms the following clauses in the platform of the Con vention of July 25, 1877: Tbe pledges of devotion to the Union and Constitution with amend ments. It declares as essential to the preservation of the government a faithful adherance to the follow ing principles: Strict construc tion of home rule; suprem acy of the civil over the military power; separation of church and state; equality of all citizens beforo the law; libeity of all individual action uuvexed by sumptuary laws; absolute acquies cence in the lawfully expressed will of the majority; opposition to all subsidies; the preservation of the public lands for the use of act ual settlers and the maintenance and protection of the common school system as pertinent to is sues now pending before tho peo ple; that tbe investigation of the frauds committed at the last Presi dential election iv Florida and Louisiana ought to have been made by the Electoral Commission; the refusal to do so was a violation of the spirit of the law under which it was organized and a gross insult to the people of the United States; and whilst the decision made by the 44th Congress of the question as to who should be declared Pres ident of the United States for tlie present Presidential term was, in our judgment, final, that decision ougiit not to preclude the authen tic Investigation and exposure of ail frauds connected with the elec tiou and the due accountability of all who were guiltily connected with them. ludlaii Outbreak ni D ettilwiioil. Deadwood, D. T., Juue 20th.— Last Sunday the Indians made their first demonstration of hostili ty of tbe season in this section by firing upou two citizens of Dead wood who were on a hunting trip near the Bed Water, thirty miles from here. The men had killed an antelope and- were fastening it on their pony, when two shots were fired and struck in close proximity to them. They quickly dropped the antelope aud made their es cape, followed by several more shots from tho hostiles, five of whom were lv view. Yesterday three men made their appearance in Galena City from the Bear Buttes and reported that a band ol about fifteen Indians had ruu them in. Geo. Bradley and eomnmid are iv the vicinity of Red Water, and will doubtless soon come In contact with gome of the roaming hostiles. Sherman's Liberality. Greedy of gain as John Sherman is known to be, and without scru ple a 9 to the means employed to attain this end, there are occasions ou which eveu his avarice yields to another passion or interest. He sent a check for five thousand dol lars as his offering to the bride of Don Comeron at the recent wed ding. And now, when his charac ter is assailed by a cloud of wit nesses, and bis own letters rise up in judgment against him, he bauds over auother cheokof five thousand dollars to his counsel, as a retainer, iv the hope of being saved from an impeuding doom aud disgrace. All great criminals are liberal In their expenditures for counsel, when threatened with the peniten tiary. Tweed squandered enor mous sums in tbat way. The great bank burglars and other profession als of tliat type keep able lawyers regularly retained, as the great corporations do, to be prepared for all emergencies. John Sherman only follows in the beaten track of illustrious predecessers. It costs him nothing to pay the largest fees. Hy lifting bis linger any day iv Wall street he cau make what he pleases, merely by an abuse of the iiower he wields in the Treas ury Department. A man who entered Congress poor, who has pursued politics as a vocation, who has engaged In no other business, and who at the cud of twenty years' service is reputed to be a millionaire, and Who is cer tainly known to he rich, must have found ways of wealth that are not common to the ordinary legislator. Honest John Sherman was at the head of the Finauce Committee of tbe Senate when all the public loans were authorized, and he held the most intimate re lations with Jny Cooke & Co,, who negotiated their sale, and stood near to the confidence of Mr.Cbase, then Secretary of the Treasury. When these facts aro all dovetailed together, anil It Is remembered how tho civil war engrossed public attention, so as to withdraw scru tiny from these huge financial operation, many of which will yet be exposed, it is not difficult to un derstand how easy it was for any man In Sherman's position, and with his desire to accumulate a fortune rapidly, to have put aside millions against a rainy day,*and to have enriched his friends with out the least exertion. He loves money for Itself, and worships wealth as a power; but he is pre pared to open his private coffers, and indeed he has already opened them, lv order to esoape the pun ishment due to his crime. What is half a million or so to him, If the prejudices of witnesses can be con quered, and impeachment or the peuitentiary be avoided? — New York Sun. The gentleman who attracted at tention in church last week by crying out "Holy Moses," had no intention of disturbing the congre gation. He had been tacking down carpets on the day before, and Just as he sat down in his pew he suddenly remembered that lie had half a pocket of tacks in his skirt pocket.
