THE DAILY TIMES. An Imllaii’H Opinion of tlie Honesty und Conduct of llie White Man. A Pluto chief, who is evidently both shrewd and sensible, writes to the St. Louis Globe-Democrat concerning the treatment of his rnco, us follows: It is passing strange, that these white pioneers and border men all believe that" they do God’s service when they kill a red man. As for merely cheating the Indians, that is not at all wrong, in the estimation of a majority of Christian whites who reside nearest to my brethren, the noble Bed men. lum disgusted wit h the pale-faced nation, and long to bo among my people once more; white people have no appreciation of the feelings of a red man. I have been often insulted by them ; they ask me to work, or suggest that I had better go to work. Poor, ignorant white man! don’t know that Indian don’t work. Up in the vicinity of Bod Cloud Agency there arc camped from 3,000 to 11, not) red people, and they dance and run horse races, and draw their rations from week to week during the whole year. The beef contractor drives up great herds of beeves, the govern ment, pays for them, and my people have sport in shooting them, and eating as much of thorn as they de sire. What splendid recreations they do have! You see, they refuse to re ceive beef, unless it is turned out to them alive, so they may have the sport of killing it. I shall be delight ed to get back among my race once more, where the contaminating in fluences of civilization have not left any bad effects. I tired of the Indian Territory. The Cherokoes and Choctaws have so far departed from the good old Indian customs Unit they are now very little better than white people. 1 would not care to go into the civil ized business and the role of a while man, if 1 could only get a contract for supplying the Indians. I would like a beef contract, for instance,and furnish 12,000 beeves per annum to Bed Cloud Agency. All Texas broad horns, steers and cows, are averaged at between 1,000 and 1,100 pounds each and paid for by the pound. Or, I believe, tlie contract for transporta tion would suit me. I would got an advance over ordinary railroad rates for all goods and supplies shipped from New York and Eastern cities, while 1 would contract for reduced rates, and then 1 would merely allow the Indian Agent’s Storekeeper at this place to turn the goods and supplies over to the teamsters, who arc always here and clamoring for a load; and l would pay tlie teamsters SI 50 per 100 pounds, while the government would be paying mo $2 to per 100 pounds. J don’t know but l had rather be an In dian Agent, but there is a science about that thing that no feller but a full-blooded white man is sharp enough to find out. How to make $60,000 in two or three years, on a salary of $1,500 a year, is a question too obtruso for the Indian mind to comprehend. The head of that Indian is level, and the late delegation of bravos to Washington also shows that at length they arc beginning to understand the ropes of the government agents. . ♦* An t'nfnU’.iisr *>llsll. The editor of the Gallatin (TennJ Examiner contributes the following to the large stock of weather signs: For more than twenty-live years we have known u sign by which to deter mine the probability of rain for that day, which we have not seen fail in a single instance, and we publish it that others itriv verify its certainty, if theyeimose. ' Go out early in the morning, in the spring, summer and fall, and if the earth and field spiders have, over-night, woven their fresh webs over tlie grass, and about the bushes and fences, set it down tor a fair day, even if it looks like the rain will pour down in live minutes. The instinct of tlie spiders never fools them. They arc wiser and surer titan General Myers and till of his calcula tions of probabilities. A knowledge of this fact may be a sure guide to the farmer as to tiis day’s work. • • A. T. Ktewarl Deals With tlr*. O’l'laii awaii. Mrs. O’Flanagan is said to bo tlie name of the lady who owned a piece or the Congress street, property at Saratoga recently purchased by Mr. A. T. Stewart, the merchant prince. They are telling how she outwitted tin; great merchant. Mr. Stewart called ami offered her $22,300 for her lot, in his usual brusque, yet busi ness-like way, and gave her till four o’clock to accept his offer. “Shure, Mr. Stewart, a brewer from Albany, lias offered mo $33,000 for the proper ty, and given ino ns long as I want to think about it. But I told him he could have it for $34,000 if he was back here by three o’clock. It is now ten minutes to three. Ye can have it for $35,000 if ye get back here before the brewer does/’ The thought of a '‘brewery” in the neighborhood of the Grand Union Hotel did the business. Mr. Stewart closed with Mrs. O'Fiana gan on the spot. — • ♦ • An excellent old ballad lias been made into good modern law in Mr. Joaquin Miller’s remote common wealth of Oregon. The United States District Court in that State has given $2,000 damages to a young German girl of nineteen whose beauty was permanently spoiled by an accident' on board of the steamship Oriflamme, of the Oregon Company, last March. The Judge gave it as his opinion that “personal comeliness is a considera tion of importune • in the case of ev ery daughter of Eve,” since it may affect her power if obtaining “a se cure and independent position in the community by marriage.” The opin ion must be admitted to he sound, and not the less sound that it simply translates into law the famous old verse: My face in my fortune, nir, lu-ail. - • ■ Welili Attempt* to swim tlie English Channel. Nkw York, August 1:1. Capt. Webb, who undertook, yesterday afternoon, to swim from Dover, England, to Ca lais, France, only swam half way across the channel, when lie was obliged to give up, and was taken on board of a vessel.

The following is a copy of the telegram; Pascagoula, August 1:1, 11 ; 20 a. m.— A mere panic; one sporadic case - not well defined. No yellow fever at Bradfields. LATER. Pascaoopla, Miss.. August 13. The yellow fever broke out here on Sun day last. It is not known how it originated, but it is supposed to have been brought from Havana. There are now thirty cases under treatment. The disease is of a most malignant type. Dr. Bradfteld, our leading phy sician, is dead. —•——- Violent Morin In New York. New York, August 13. One of the most violent storms of tlie season vis ited this section of the country yes terday. Bain commenced falling shortly before three o'clock p. m., and descended in torrents for an hour and a half, flooding the streets and sub merging cellars to a depth, in somo cases, of two feet.

Killeu anil Judge H. M. lloltsolaw, represented tho county, and Gon. Eli Warren, Col. W. L. Grice and B. M. Davis, Esq., tho de fense. Tuesday tho testimony began and Hie Auditor decided that the proof of palpably fraudulent items in an account, should such proof be made, would impeach the whole ac count. It will last probably two weeks longer. For tlie last week I have been dili gent in making inquiries about crop prospects. Scarcely aday lias passed during tlie last fortnight but rain has fallen in some parts of the coun ty. These rains have been vory par tial, however. I have heard of several plantations that are yot suffering from drought. Most of tho corn anil highly fertilized cotton has failed to recover entirely from tho effects of the dry spell, but in many sections we hear of good crops and hopeful spir its. We cannot expect a full average either of corn or cotton; probably three-fourths will como pretty near tho right figures. S.

Washington, August 13.—1 tls es timated that from a half to three quarters of a million dollars are add ed yearly to the amount required for the compensation of postmasters in tlie United States by the practice which prevails among postmasters not appointed by the President, and drawing fixed salaries of selling stamps outside their own and within the delivery of Presidential affairs. The law making salaries dependent upon tlie value of stamps sold went into operation July 1, 1874, and can hardly lie repealed before June 3()th, 1876, during which time, unless tlie practice is cheeked, the Government will be defrauded of a million tou million and half dollars by tho process. The department ex pects that the summary removal of a large number of postmasters for this cause will act as a warning, and at least partially check the operations in this direction. • ♦ • Former* i Trial.

If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tho cow's udder and kept dry for years, then mois tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped iu it and drawn gently on tho arm, so as not to draw tho blood, will bo impregnate and change tlie entire system as to prevent the party so vac cinated from taking tho most loathsome of dis eases (small pox) for an ontire life; again, if the Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu brious clime, by simply absorbing from tho at mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus •■liable parties to inhabit malarial districts with impunity? We claim that there is such a remedy, and that we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved it in our Anti-malarial or Euchymlal Belt—and that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit the worst malarial districts without the fear of having any diseases arising from malaria; such as Chills aud Fever, Billious or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem orrhoids, ami that it will cure all the above dis cuses, except tho worst cases of Billious and Yel low Fever. This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt, as it corrects tho humors of the body and produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys tem, and thus enabling it to per.orm its various duties without feariug tho effects of malaria in the least. It has been tried in thousands of cases without a failure. They can be obtained from the proprietors in any quantity at tho Powell Building, junction of Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga. Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran tee that it will cuie or the money refunded. N. B.—None genuino without the trade mark is stamped upon them. I)rs.

Lovk k Willson: Gentlemen—ln April last I was taken sick with regular Fever aud Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try one of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all medicine, and simply wore one of your Beltß, as directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc cessive time thereafter for somo three or four times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe tite and clear skin; and in future, if I should ever have a Chill or Ague, I would wan t one of your Pads, aud no physic. Wishing everybody that may be so unfortunate as to have Chills aud Fever may be fortunate enough to get oue of your Belts, I am, respectfully, etc., W. J. Wilson. Atlanta, Ga., June 3,1876. Dns. Love & Willson: On the first day of December last I was taken with Chills and Fever in Thomasviile, Southwes tern Ga., anil was treated for tho same by three eminent physicians who were able to stop it only for a few days at a time. It made such inroads on my constitution that my physician pronoun ced nie to be in the first stages of consumption, wh en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured mo. I have had but one chill since, and that was the first (lay after putting it on. lam now in as good health as I ever was in my lile, aud think this Belt a God-scud to the afflicted. # J. M. Mathews. Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1876. Some nine years ago I contracted malaria in Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love fit Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months ago. 1 have worn it continually, and have had no chill since, and find my general health, which has been poor, much improved. I would recom mend it to others suffering with malaria. It. A. Wallace. Macon, Ga., June 4,1876. Fiuknd Hodgson: I received your letter of tho 26th ult., on yesterday, I have been off on a fish ing excursion and just returned. The people of this town don’t chill worth a cent yet. I have sold two of the pails, and that I did the very hour I first received them, one to oue of our conductors, and to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in the office. They both say that they tried Quinine und other remedies, and that they failed till they put on the pad; since then they have had no more Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev erybody. * * * * * Alex.
