"We do not think that this majority be materially
varied by the official returns yet to come in though is
proper to remark that the reported majority Wayne of
100 is not very well authenticated"
This result shows that the democrats have done better

nearer 300 than 400 AT the late election the vote of
Alexandria county has been taken in, to swell the whg
vote the amount of 3l4 Strike this element off,

That old established and excellent paper the Hunts
vile (Alabama) Democrat pays the following just tribute
TO the democratic press:
THE SPIRIT or THE DEMOCRATIC PREss-We are glad 10
see that in the midst Of delea and the disappointment
and modification consequent thereupon democratic
coemPoraes everywhere manifest unteuied and in
domabe spirit. They exhor the democracy not TO be
dsmayed, but to grid themselves for renewed exertions in
behalf OF the great principles which distinguish them as
party from the odds and ends of political factions that have
combined together, without any fixed aud princi-
pie OF union, 10 accomplish overthrow. We would
hort our readers in like manner bear their defeat with
becoming iorltude aud TO bow with proper submission to
what seems to be the popular wthat is that Old lack
should be Presidents but let all resolve hence
to rest on our oars in supine confidence that the political
tide will always smooth and wait u.s. without an effort
on our part 70 The desired haven Of political supremacy"

Once OF Indian AfYairs.

On visiting the Office Of Indian Affairs the other morn
ing, friend OF ours fell into conversation with Henry
K. Schoocrat esq, in regard to the famous tribe OF
Iroquos Indians, which is said to have been the most
powerful group OF American aborigines. We were
shown the reprint OF report, originally made by this
gentleman to the Legislature of New York, the history
the departments of Evolutionary history and philoogy
Among the matters discussed in this volume is the curl
Gus fact in apoical point Of view, that tie principles Of
the ancient roquos cOnfederacy required absolute una
nimity in all the cantons in order to bind them in ques
tons OF war and peace. According to Mr. Schoocraft
the lroquols are in state OF advanced semi
agricultural than they consume and appear capa
Bile OF sustaining fair rivalry with their Anglo. Saxon
neghbors in the field of husbandry. Since the pubca
ton Of the aforementioned report, the legislature Of
New York has made provision for extending complete
school system throughout the tribes within the borders Of
that State, and also enacted laws for their especial
benefit We also understand that, under an act
passed by the government OF the United States, Mr.
Schoocrat is devoting his entire time to making
searches and collecting statistics respecting the Indians
OF the great lest, with view to the future policy and
legislation of government respecting them Ii It be
for other purpose but to dsspae the false
heretofore existing regard to the and customs
of the North American ans well as to their char
acter condition, and general ethnoogy the abor OF this
gentleman must meet with friendly gesponse from all,
the frontier elsewhere who capable OF furnish
ing authentic information. Our obligations TO these
tribes not wholly performed by giving them money
and merchandise They have claims TO the patronage of
our government which supply them with the bless.
ngs of education, christianity agriculture and the
TAe Indian tribes now living on this continent are the
remains of ancient but long lost branch of mankind,
who the original possessors of the soil They appeal
to nationality in its highest aspects and
sponsble for treatment of them under the maxms oil
civilization. The labors upon which Mr. Schoocraft is
engaged not only valuable but exceedingly in
teresing, and hardly know of public office in the
city where one can spend more agreeable hour than in
examining the documents and Indian publications which
may he seen at the office of Indian Afars.-National
Intelttgencer.
