Secretary Lincoln has just seen the
President, lie says he expected to see
i very ill man, and that his expecta
tions were realized. J le had not seen
the President since the afternoon lie

liis condition continues favorable.

passed a good night and awoke re

tinted haze prevails. Hamilton is sat

as are also Swaim and Rockwell.
Should the President make the request

clining chair for a short time,
THE l!E('I,INL(t (.'HAUL

Elberon, S,e'tVv. 14. Thv-l'o. is an iu-f

tdniperature, pulse and respiration, but
it is so slight as to, not necessarily indi'
cate the condition f blood as produc
ing any new complication. The trou

and is causing hint the least annoyance.
He has taken adequate nourishment

I'GLY L'TKS.
Washington, Sept. 14. A telegram
received at the War Department from
(ieneral Sheridan, dated Chicago, Sept.
10th, says the Indian troubles in Arizo
na are confined to the White Mountain
Utes and there is no reason to believe it
will spread.
MILITARY MOVEMENTS.
Col. Bradley has gone toward Fort
Apache with two companies of cavalry
and three of infantry and will be soon
joined by (ieneral McKenzie with six
companies of the Fourth and additional
companies of infantry are being col
lected at Wingate and nine companies
of infantry at Uncompahgre will be
sent there if necessary. It is thought
best to hold them in the Ute country a
little longer although the Utes seem to
be going to their new reservation all
right, deneral Pope has been of the
opinion that he controls sufficient troops
to protect New Mexico and help Gen
eral Wilcox. If I get the slightest in
formation that will lead me to believe
trouble will spread I will send the
whole of the Third Cavalry and one
regiment of infantry from the Depart
ment of the Platte, one from Texas ami
one from Dakota and one more can be
pushed out from the Department of the
Missouri. We cannot prudently spare
these forces but will taKC the chances,
as cold weather is coming on and the
Indians will keep quiet in the north.
Another dispatch dated Sept. 11,
from Sheridan, is as follows: (ieneral
Pope telegraphed me last night that ad
vices from (ieneral Wilcox are to the
effect that there was no connected at
tack of Indians on Fort Apache, but
that what occurred was merely a tem
porary outbreak, occasioned by the ar
rest of a medicine man, and the unex
pected firing of (ieneral Carr's scouts,
which killed Ilenti"- and six men.
There have been no depredations since
the firing on the burying party, the day
after officially reported, (ieneral Pope
expresses some doubts as towhethcrtne
Indians will lire on the troops now ad
vancing on them from every direction.
DADDY KIKKWOOD'S KEQCEST.
Secretary Kirkwood has requested
General Sheridan, through the W ar De
partment, that if the movements of the
troops become necessary, to leave the
troops now guarding the lite Indians
until the last that are to be sent are
away. The Indian Bureau regards the
outbreak at Fort Apache as temporary,
and thinks the trouble is now all over.
GOV. SHELDON COUNSELS CAUTION.
Governor Sheldon, of New Mexico, in
a letter to Secretary Kirkwood, writes
that the Indian troubles have been
greatly exaggerated. As a matter of
precaution, however, Sheldon urges the
arms to be sent out to arm the compa
nies of citizens that have been formed,
lest the Indians that have been lighting
might seek to join with Nane in his
raids.

Geneva, Sept. 14. With reference to
the land slip near Elm, Sunday evening
last, it is feared the list of victims mu.-n
include forty men of the neighboring
villages, who came to aid when the first
land slips occurred in the evening, and
before the village was overwhelmed by
the second slip, which took place ít
midnight. The river on which Elm is
situated has been turned into a lake,
and fears are entertained that the val
ley below will be Hooded. As the place
is much frequented by strangers this
season it is feared that sowe have per
ished. LANP LEAGt'E NOTES.
Dub),in,. Sept. 14. The executive
eo.nunittee of the Land League, will
submit resolutions to (he national con
vention declaring that the cause of po
litical and social U and the impov
erishment of the country is the detest
able system of alien rule, and that the
poodle can never be prosperous and
contented until they enjoy the right of
self "government fur which they will
never cease to sirnggle. The second
section denounces the coercion act as
having been devised in a spirit of ma
lignant hypocrisy and for the gratifica
tion of private vindictiveness and for
the suppression of admitted public
rights upon men who bore a lieavy
share in the movement which led the
Government to initiate the land bill.

Jim for a chew of tobacco. Jim felt in
his pocket and couldn't find any.
"Never mind," said Jess, observing a
passenger train approaching, "I will
go over and get one irom the engi
neer.
So, walking o vex, he threw a few
stones on the track, and when the train
stopped he asked the engineer for a
chew.
"Don't shoot, Jesse," the engineer
replied, and jumping from his engine,
gave Jess his watch and if lo t..!) m
money, and seizing his coal hammer,
sprang to the door of the express ear
and beat it in. Jesse laughed, lhe
door Hew open and the messenger
tossed the safe out, while the passen
gers came up and Handed over their
money. Jess laughed again three
times, and told the engineer to pull out.
Then he went over to Jim, who fell
asleep watching Jess, and waking him
up, told him the "G fools gave him
$4.000, but no tobacco."
1 hen they both laughed and took a
drink out of a flat bottle.
Mr. John B. Farrish, of whom men
tion has previously been made in these
columns, left yesterday for the State
Line mines, Ncv,, where he has recent
ly been appointed to an important pos

gram just as he'vvas about making ar
rangements to locate in our city. Mr.
Farrish is a genial, pleasantgentleman,
and while we congratulate him upon
his good fortune in securing an advan

much gratified to have him become a

Our popular attorney, Louis Snlz-
bacher, Esq., came into the Gazette
office yesterday afternoon, evidently in
a state of mental elevation quite unusu
al to him; calling loudly for the editor,
upon being informed that Mr. K. was
out, he said "When he conies in, tell
him its a girl." We are an entire st ron
ger in this community, and yet we
readily understood what Mr. S. meant,
and we doubt not but the public will be
equajly ready to congratulate him upon
this accession to his family after read
ing this article.
Everett Donough, one of the parties
robbed on the C. &A. train recently,
has brought suit to recover the amount
lost from the company. His petition
alleges the loss of $155 in money and a

askes for a judgment for $185 and
costs. The decision will make a very
important precedent, and will doubt
less be contested until it reaches the
court of last resort.
