UNITED
THE INDIAN TROUBLES. Cuicaao, Oct. 9.
There is nothing new regarding the In- dian war. Officers express great satisfac- tion with the action of Capt. Dodge and his colored troops, who first relieved Payne, although under no orders to do so. He made a march through an infested country with 40 inen; and forced his way through the savages into camp, with. unequalled valor andpluck. The Indians have a pecu- liar hatred for colored treops, which they return with interest.
$15,000 REWARD. Cuicaco, Oct. 9.
Manager Mullen of the Chicago and Al- tor. Railroad, offers a reward of $15,000 for the arrest of the robbers who last night stopped a Chicago and Alton train and rifled the Express Cempany’s safe at Glen- dale, Mo. A proportionate part of the amount will be given for the capture of a part of the robbers.
IRELAND.
Lonpon, Oct. 9.
The address and appeal by Parnell and the Home Rulers to the American Irish, says that apart from the effects of the Am- erican competition with the products of rent- tied Ireland, all Irish evils are referable to barbarous land system. Two things are necessary : the 600,000 landless farmers must be welded into an organized body and aid giventhem. They urge the American- Irish, and’ all who sympathize with the people of Ireland, to furnish pecuniary aid. The address is signed by. Parrell, O’Connor Power, Finnegan, Biggar, and others. It has already won much sympathy. A tele- gram has been read from New York guaran- teeing $250,000 if any Irish member of the advance party will visit the States. Parnell will probably go.
AFGHANISTAN. Lonvon, Oct. 9.
Specials from Afghanistan report that during the attack of the 6th on the prin- cipal heights before Cabul, two compariies of Highlanders were opposed to 2000 Afghans. The latter held their ground un- til the Highlanders were within twenty yards. The Afghan force is said to have been eleven regiments with artillery and an immense number of hillmen. The back- bone of resistance is broken, but the people would rise at the slightest reverse to the British. The whole Brtiish force was to be within striking distance of Cabul'on the 7th.
SOUTH AMERICA,
. Lenpon, Oct. 9. A Valparaiso despatch to-day says there was an engagement between the Chilian and Peruvian fleets. The former captured the Peruyian ram. ‘‘ Huascar” off Mejil- jones.
LATER. Lonpon, Oct. 9. Private telegrams state that the whole Peruvian fleet has been captured, but these are believed to be exaggerated and based on the first reports concerning the capture of the ‘‘ Huascar.”’
NEW ZEALAND. New Yorks, Oct. 9, At the burning of a block of buildings in Dunedin, New Zealand early, in Sep- tember, seven people were burned to death.

can now be purchased 1izht at home, it is the most suecessful preparations ever introduced to our people. It works like a charm in all cases of Consumption, Pnuemonia, Hemorr- hages, Asthma, severe Coughs, Croup and all other Throat and Lung Diseases. No person has ever used this medicine without getting immediate relief, yet there are a great many poor, suffering, skeptical persons going about our streets with a suspicious cough, and the voice of consumption coming from their lungs, that w!!l not try it. If you die, it is your own fault, as you can go your druggist and get a sample bottle and tryit; three doses will relieve any case. Regular size only 75%cts.

Exhibitions.
T'o the Editor of the Examiner.
Sir,—Now that the Exhibitions are over, afew comments thereon may be allowed. While admitting that the labor and de- tail of arranging one is not light, and that the general features were good, one could not help seeing an apparent want.cf direction in placing exhibits at the Queen’s County Fair, ‘‘Textile fabrics. in wool” were about the only things properly dis- played ; and one may question the propri- ety of giving them such a prominent place in an Agricultural Exhibition ; and also painlings, photographs and furniture, which ought to come under an art and in- dustrial exhibition.
The poultry, of which there were some good specimens, were placed in an out-of- the-way and small space, and practically unseen. Roots and vegetables were on the ground at a back tiring distance, Flowers were on a flat surface instead of a sloping or pyramidal. Fruit was scattered and name of kind not attached, while the absence of any one capable of giving and information asked for, was striking.
As the judges in the different depart- ments neglected to advise improvement, for the future, in the cases mentioned (and in others that might be, such as the question- able taste and fitness of a hearse being ak lowed entry), and they must have noticed the want. Perhaps the Commissioners and Secretary may accept it now in the spirit it was offered. Have well-defined sections for each class of entries, and a care-taker who can answer questions. Give the most common and useful articles the most pro- minent place, such as butter, fruit, vege- tables, &c.; and the ornamental will fall into its own place. Require a statement from each exhibitor,of the manner in which his exhibit has been bred, cultivated or made, to be attached to the article, and give prizes for quality, and not so totally
for quantity and size. Pay all judges and sell exhibits by auction at the Bs of the Fair. Ti eer
