Orange Riots Anticipated In Montreal on the 12th Secretary Sherman Will not Announce the Resumption of Specie Payment Prior to January 1st, FOREIGN. London, July 6.—A Vienna dispatch says regarding Turkey's reservation in ac cepting in principle the Austrian occnpa patioo or Bosnia and Herzegovina, that Aus tria and Turkey shall directly negotiate the detuilg, while Turkish claims were pre viously expressed in a sort of detailed man ner. Tliey reappear in tbe declaration of CaTotiiodori, the Turkish plenipotentiary, under the veil of a general reserve guided by the old custom of Turkish diplomacy. One has reason to believe that the Porte has recourse to this manoeuvre, merely to spin out as lorg as possible the question of the occupation. A significant enough proof of the mood prevailing in Turkish government circles Is found in the rumors which circulated here yesterday, with some appearance of foundation, that the Ottoman embassy would quit Vienna shortly.

St. Joseph, Mo., July 2.—The Missouri river at thia point is now higher than since 1844, belog seventeen feet four inches above low water mark. Considerable damage was done today to the iron bridge span ning tbe river at this point by the current washing in and causing the east abutment to sink down some eight or ten feet, letting the shore end of tbe llrst span touch tbe shore.

Kansas City, Mo., July 2.—The tow-boat Grand Lake No. 2. in charge of Captain Gall, which left St. Louis a week ago with three large barges, arrived here safe this af ternoon. The barges were towed to the Union elevater where they are now receiv ing a cargo of 100,000 bushels of corn, which will be (hipped to St. Louis and t'.eace to New Orleans. The barges have been vis ited by hundreds to day, inclnding many of the business men of the' city. The arrival of the barges is looked upon as a new era iu the grain trade, and it's supposed to ^settle the fact that in future the Missouri nver is to be utilized at the great outlet for the im mense crops of the west. Elk Point Curier 3d: The "Old Muddy" has again sloped over its banks on this Bide of Vermillion, an 1 a number of farmers be tween this city and the place where the wat er came out are experiencing quite a spell of dampness, and go a visiting on flat boats.

Considerable damage will be done to the crops in this locality unless the water recedes or dries up very soon The water is within a mile of this town about where it was two years ago when we had the big overflow although there is not near the amount of water new as came down at that time. The new Missouri river p&ckt Eclipse, G.D.Moore captain,and A. S. Sbepard clerk arrived here from below early this morn ing, en route for Fort Benton and other up river points. This is the firet trip of the Eclipse, she having been built tbts season in Pittsburg. Her length is 170 feet, breadth 30 feet, and depth 4 feet.

Vermillion Republican, 4th: On last Sat urday night some fifty feet of the road bid of the Dakota Southern went into the raging Missouri, and all the woik done so far by the railroad company rendered a useless ex penditure Supt. Merchant arrived here Sun day to survey the wreck and prepare tor future efforts to keep the road open. Mon day morning VanAntwerp, the civil engin eer of the road came down from Yankton, and looked over the chances of the road to ptss over the bluff. After a careful survey, above and below town, it was fiually decided to cut higher into the bluff, back of the washout, and some fifty or sixty men, with teams commenced work Tuesday morning. The city assisted by the railroad company commenced operations Tuesday, looking to wards filling in trees at the worst cutting point of the river. Some two hundred trees were cut along the line of the road, just above town, to be used for the purpose. The council' on Tuesday evening, intrusted Aid ermun Potter with superintending the work. A large number of our citizens were engaged in rip-raping the ink with trees and cov ering tliem with dirt. An examination this morning shows, conclusivily, that the cutting of the river may be stayed if not permanent ly stopped, by treating'the entire river front, at the exposed places, to a similar dose. Will it be done? NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS. Bon Homme county winter wheat is ready to harvest. The Sioux Falls railroad has crossed the Big Sioux river.

Vermillion Republican: The general pros* pect of the crope continues very fine. Some fields of wheat, here and there, begin to show some signs of "rust," but this fungus is, so far, confined to tbe leaf. Oats cannot fail of being very heavy. Corn ia coming forward with great rapidity. Nothing now seems te atand in the way of an immense crop in south-east Dakota this season. /""Vermillion Republican 4°,li: Laat Satur lay Mr. Charles L. Deming severed his con nection, for a while, at least, with the stage pusiness in Dakota. Four years ago he was the succ^ssfal bidder oa two routes, one from Yankton to Sioux Falls, and the other from Vermillion to Finlay, in Turner county. Mr. Deming has been a faithful contractor and few are the times he has failed to have the mail through on time, despite the bliz zard, and bad roads of winttr, or the burn' ning sun of summer. He has earned the gratitude of people along both routes, and can number friends among his acqqantances, who will say well done." VEGETINE FOR DROPSY I Never Shall Forget the First Dose. MR. H. R.

ALL DISEASES OK THE BLOOD.—If Vegetine will relieve pain, cleanse, purify, and cure such diseases, restoring tlie'patient to perfect health, after trying different physicians, many remedies, suffering for years, is It not conclusive proof, if you are a sufferer, you caa he cured? Why is this medicine performing such great cures? It works in the blood, in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the tireat Blood Purifier. The great source of disease originates in the blood and no niedieine that does not act directly upon it, to purify and renovate, has any just claim up on public at' attention.
