ALEXANDER MACoMB,


M. dtI. COlliildiueTIu Ciltl.
This official acknowledgement of Taylor's
merit was soon after followed BY promotion
10 the rank of Brigadier General by brevet,
according to the %languauge Of the order, "fol
distinguished services in the battle OF Kissim-
NEE (Okeechobee,) in Florida"
la April, 1888, and soon after his promo
ton, the command of the troops in Florida
was assigned to General Taylor, General Je-
sup having been relieved at his own desire
In this new and responsible position, his en-
tire energies were devoted to the protection
OF the inhabitants from attacks of the indians,
and OF the reduction of the latter to submis-
sion TO the authority Of the United States.-
The perfect accomplishment of these objects
was impraclicable with The means and forces
placed at the disposal Of the commander. In
a communication TO the war department,
written by General Jesup, ON the ninth OF
February, 1888, prior to his recall, he makes
these decided remarks on the subject of the
war;
AS a soldier, it is my duty, | am aware,
not to comment on the policy Of the govern
ment. but to carry it out in accordance with
my instructions. /. have endeavoured faith
luiiy TO do So, but the prospect OF terminating
the war in any reasonable time is any thing
but ildttering. My decided opinion is, ths,
unless immediate emigration b. abandoned,
the war will continue for years TO come, and
at constantly accommodating expense"
Ia the letter, OF which this is a prophetic
passage, the distinguished wtiter earnestly rec.
ommends that the Indians be allowed to re-
main within certain limits, at a distaoce from
The white population. The advice, however,
was not followed, and General Taylor was en-
trusted with the task which four able prede-
cessors had in vain endeavored to perform
From time to time skirmishes with the lndi-
aus took place, and individuals, or small par
ties OF them, were captured or voluntarily
surrendered. But they could never be brought
10 a general action, and after ashort season Of
comparative repose, they renewed, against
the detenceless inhabitants of the frontier,
the acts OF barbaIily which had marked their
first hostllities.
From The day of hi, appointment to the
command OF the army in Florida, General
Taylor had made the most effective DISPOSE
ton OF has forces to accomplish the object,
which was imposed by the government, but
believed 10 be improctlcable by every man Ia
mlhdr with the numbers, dispositions, and
situation oil the Saminoles. The treaty, al.
ready mentioned, was concluded with some
OF their people by General Macomb in p.r.
son, who had lett Washington with diolo.
nalic powers for that purpose. Pending it'll

grateful than ariuous. many Of the noblsst
officers Of the army and of the volunteer
corps. abandoned its policy, and determined,
towards the close Of 1889, to leave the Indians
in their impenetrable strongholds, and to con
fine the operations of the troops to the pro-
lection Of the border settlements. In the
general orders OF the War Department, in
November of that wear, the conduct OF the
commander was approved in these terms:
"General Taylor, by the Jealous and intel
ligent discharge OF his duties, having given
satisfaction to the Department, will continue
in command"
The plan of operation defined for the cam
paign embraced the expulsion OF the enemy
from the settlements, by occupying the coun-
try north Of a line extending from Pilatki TO
the mouth of the Withlacoochee, and thence
along the western coast to the Apalachicola.
To assist the regulars the inhabitants were
armed Tor the protection of their fresides.-
General Taylor's skill and energies were faith
fully exerted TO fulfil these designs, bu: the
force at his disposal was never adequate. The
vengeance of the Seminole continued. at every
deienceless point, to be wreaked upon the
white man; and neither the leebleness Of age,
the innocence of childhood, nor the oN%eliness
of tender sex, pleaded exemption from fright
full torture and death at his hands. Having
laboured four years in this thankless field,
General Taylor was anxious to retire from it,
and, at bis own request, was relieved from
the command and succeeded by General
Armistead, in April 1910. His course ofduty,
however trying to his feelings, may have aid
ed in peparing him for The dangers and diff
culiies of the larger and more glorious sphere
in which he is now TO be presented. In this
he has become known, not only to his coun-
trymen, but to the world. But had the chances
of life closed his military career with his
command 10 Florida, the intelligent student
OF his operations there, would have found
enough to prove his talents, his f%irtnness, and
his courage. his influence over others, and his
iorgetfulness Of himself, worthy of any post
ton o which he might have been called by
the exigences of a great nation.
Gen. Taylor was appointed to the COM
mand of the First Department of the army in
the South west, and relieved Gen. Arbuckle
at Fort Gibson, where he remained in com
mand for FIVE years, Or until his high destiny
called him to the delence of our South Western
Boundary in the great drama OF war in which
he has acted so conspicuous a part, i'll which
the whole force of his character and genius
have been developed. This portion OF his
career we will leave another chapter, pr,pos-
ing to give to i, that space, which will in ure
a clear knowledge of his character and ac-
quirements.

WATER RENTS.


Mr. Editorials editors have to %enlighten
the ignorant, | hope you will explain (what
seems to me a little intricate.) the rule, or
principle by which our City Fathers fix the
rent % be paid by those who are supplied
with water by the city water works.
Is the rent imposed in reference to the guam
tity OF water usrd, or the use to which 1t is
applied? ! used to suppose the quantity OF
water used was chiefly regarded; as well be-
cause such a rule seems TO be just, as because
men with large families bave been required
to pay a higher rent than those who have
small families; and because large factories
were made 10 pay more than small ones,and |
had concluded that the reason for this was,
that large factories and large families use more
water than small ones, and 10 my poor appre-
hension this rule seems both reasonable and
just.
But Of late those who choose to supply
themselves with hose, are allowed to irrigale
the grounds and wash the streets adjacent to
their dwellings and places of business at plea
sure. Some thus probably use more water
in a day than their neighbors (who only use
it for ordinary family purposes) use in twenty
days. 1t Is said that those who thus use
such quantities OF water with their hose, are
only subjected to a very inconsiderable addi-
ton to their water rent-vsry little more,
than many are charged, who only use a few
pitchers full of water a day, at their stores or
places OF business.
Now, Sir, | wish to enquire whether these
things are so? And il 50, where our City
Fathers or Water Committee, find the author
ity TO charge citizens who use no hose, five or
ten dollars a year for water for family purpo-
ses, while others with their hose are suffered
to use ten or twenty times as much for two,
three, or four dollars a year. G

SAND.-Frrderick OF Prussia used to SAY
that he could conceive of the purpose for
which every thing was made except sand. In
his day Prussia had not become a manufac.
turing community. or he would have been
taught the following truth;
1t was The remark Of a sage, edo not despise
small things" How true is this expression
when used in reference to the dust beneath
our feet. Liebig has placed glass as one OF
the fevolutlonizers of the world-rgreat agent
4 the cause OF civilization. Well glass can
not be made without sand. Our castings, The
finest and most mighty, are moulded n sand,
and even the metals could not be reduced
from some of their ores without sand as a
fux. In copper smelling, glass is formed in
the copper ore, so as to leave the pure cop
per-hence to 1t we W the possession OF the
metal. TIN blacksmith uses sand ~toeifect
the welding of his pieces of malleable iron;
and in the reduction of some iron ore sand is
indispensab Bile. We well know the great val
ne of iron, but we place but little value upon
sand, yet were il as scarce as gold we might
even place "a higher value upon it than upon
that metal, as il is and can be applied TO a far
greater variety OF purposes than any metal.

1t is STAYED that General Ciss, in conse-
quence of the fatigues of his journey from
Washington to New York, has grown so lean
that his broad-brimmed white hat no longer
fits him, but has dropped over his eyes, and
now rests gracefully with the brim upon his
shoulders. Thisis thought to be an improve.
ment, as it places his face and his opinions
upon precisely the same ground, one being just
as obvious as the other.
