He'till desires to have the choice of ministers ol marine, war and foreign affairs. M. Du fame made no engagement on lids point, and ii is considered unacceptable. The ministry will probably not be definitely formed for t wo days.

A repoit from another source -iates that a band of Indians vis ited .Madden's rancho at Chey enne crossing of Fiore route and drove off all the st ock. A heavy was discovered last week leading across the Bis mark road. Al the intersection of the trail with the road the In dians had made a crude sketch of an Indian and a white man fra ternizing. -urmounted by three stars. A rancho on the Sidney road, six miles from Crook City, was attacked recently, hut tin* people escaped into the woods.

Ihe <iwinnet j Herald says ihe farmers of that county have rais ed bigger crops than they can | gather. The fields are still white with eniton, and al lea-l half the corn is -till migathored. There has been a great demand for labor in that section. The Douglasville Alodium says that on tin- 2t)th of November, a | very sad accident occurred at N il la Rica. While Air. J. K. J*. Ale • arley was at work with 2 young men. Ales-is. Chambers, in tln ' gold mine, the embankment car ed in. killing both tlie Chambers in-tantly. Air. AlcFarley escaped without any serious damage, ow ing. perhaps, to the prompt as-i* tance rendered him by his fat her. He was covered completely ti]> with the dirt, and was dug out bv hi- lather before he had suffoca ted. Air. Hinton, one of our most in dustrious and energetic fanners, ; has. latteucd quite a number of hogs by feeding to them green corn, stalks and ear, together with kitchen garbage and fruit. The hog seems to thrive on a green die*, which places him in good condition to receive the solid fat tening of a purely corn diet. The above process commends itself jinr i it- economy, enabling the farmer ito utilize material which would otherwise be of no value. We need the general introduction of economic method-in all depart ments of the farm and household. 1 nllmltn,/ Jti'ifisif/•. A party of gentlemen from N. •Mr ey are prospecting in Fanola county.
