A dispatch from Yreka to-day states that a mes sage had arrived at that place from the; headquarters of General Wheat on, commanding the troops against the 3adoc Indians. . A severe battle was fought last Friday by the troops of Wheaton, consisting xf two ?hun dred and fifty regulars, two com pa nies of Oregon volunteers, and 25 ri-file-men; - of California under. the command of CaptL Fairchild, making altogether about 400 men. The battle took place near the eastern shore of Title Lake. ; f C&ptain Bernard on Thursday went around the north end of the lake to the c:vst side, and to. the east of Cap tain Jack position. $JHe watf to ad vance against Captain Jack from the east, and Wheatoh from the south west, the forces of the latter to be under cover of the fire of the howit zers. On Thursday night such a dense fog enveloped the country that they could not see forty yards. The two forces were about twelve miles apart, thougli to communicate with each other it was necessary to go a much greater instance. Friday, morning Captain Bernard opened the battle against Capt. Jack, who had about 200 warriors conceal ed among the rocks along a line of two miles length. W heaton heard firing, but had no alternative but to move to the aid of Captain Bernard without the aid of the howitzer fire. The troops' fought an unseen enemy from 8 o'clock in the morning until dark under a terrific fire, during which scarcely one Indian was seen. The loss to the troops was 40 killed and wounded. The loss to the Jad ocs is unknown. The troops were finally obliged to retreat to their camps. Bernard's force bore the 1 runt of the battle, and sullcrrd terribly. Ail the caval ry fo'igiit on foot. -Among the killed are Frank Trimble and G. R. Brown, of . Oregon.- G. V Roberts .was mortally wounded. Capt. Ferry, of the Uegulars, was seriously and Lieu tenant Kyle slightly wounded. The movement is called a forced recon noissance. Brkakixg Ur of the Gkrman Gaj: bi.in( Houses. Now that gambling has been broken up at the German gambling places Hamburg and YVeis baden will doubtless return to the quiet villages tley were before they were made nictropolii. Hamburg ban alwa-s been a "favorite resort of the English speaking people, and many respectable families intend set tling there who would not have done so ui der the former state of things. But though Wcisbaden finds favor, living "there is far from cheap. Rhine wine costs more than double its p:iceofsix months ago. Jeat and c immodities of all sorts haye risen. Since the war the German character and habits have undergone a .change. Germans now spend money freely, furnish their houses. " luxuriously, drive the best equipages you some times see a three liundre 1 guinea pair of horses and give sumptuous entertainments The breaking up of the German gambling pas will make some strange metamorphoses. An Eng lish paper tells us many of them are going into I iisiness. -Think of these men who have handled incalculable amounts of money,--and been in : the company of the highest and wealth iest, if not the distinguished, of all nations, becoming green grocers, um brella makers, and hair dressers. But then, these people ought to make, g :ou hi. sine-s men. The best por tion of their lives have 1 een devoted to the most methodical habits, and the long years ami mental calcula tion and the incessant handling of men must have well-fitted them for the prosecution of business. Ex-Govekxou Smith. In a descrip tion of affairs at Willard's Hotel, in the Washington Republican oi Satur day morning the following paragraph appears : 4'It awakened many me mories tt old tunes, toseckxtra uniy Smith in conversation with Col.

And these two ex-nfembers of Con gress rattled on about the scenes at the capital from 1850 to 1861 parti cularly." v . w The Taxes of York County.

What the Season Suggests. To assume warm clothing at the com men cement of the cold season is only an act of common prudence. But something more than this is required to put the body in a state of defense against the searching atmosphere of winter. Dump has a de pressing effect on the vital organs and the animal spirjts. The amount of life power taken out of the strongest ot us by the chilling vapors which frequently load the air at this period of the year is very consid erable, and to the weak and languid they are extremely detelerious. To protect the system against -their effects, it must be in wardly toned, regulated and reinforced, as well as shielded outwardly by apppropriate garments. This essential service is more safely and satisfactorily accomplished by, the daily use of Hosteler's Stomach Bit ters than by any other means within the province of medical science. The fact here stated, is as incontrovertible as a de monstration in mathematics. ' Nobody dis putes it. It is a matter of common belief and of general record.- Here; the case might be rested but the public, naturally enough, wants to know why this famous vegetable specific is so far ahead of all other medicines of its class. This reasona ble curiosity can be readily gratified. . The Bitters comprise five important elements, viz : a stimulant, a tonic, an aperient, and a blood depurent. Each "of. these compo nents, as well as each .of the other subor dinate ingredients, is the purest and best of its kintL; Theyj are proportioned jn ac cordance with a formula that has been ; in use for twenty years, and operate harmon iously and simultaneously. Hence the -uniform success of the medicine. , Mathers be Ad viae d Always keen a bottle of DrTatfs Cele brated Expectorant in the house.
