party came up in full speed to Capt. Browns COM
pany, when two men, without orders, fired on them,
but Fortunately did no damage. The Indians lmme-
diately retreated back to the main body. In the
mean time there was white man came up and said
they were Sioux and had been out to fight the
Pawnees, and were friendly to the whites we
sent couple of men out TO meet them, and made
them several presents of provisions, and they de-
parted apparently satisfied though doubtless, If
those shots had taken effect, we would have had
trouble We were in the heart of the Pawnee coun-
try and had Just heard Of their having killed two
men and robbing wagons; and 54 men against
1000 was right fearful odds, but little party APP
peared perfectly calm.
We are now encamped six miles below Fort
Childs. This is the first day we have laid by since
we started. We have remodeled our loads, taking
100 days provisions; leaving about 400 pounds ba-
con and the same amount of flour from the wagons.
We can only get two cents for bacon at the fort,
and the same for -four There will be thousands
of pounds of provisions thrown away on the plains,
as emigrants are generally mistaken about the
amount their teams can haul do not see how
such mass are to get along when they get there,
without provisions but all anxious to get there
first, and are pushing their teams, so it is impos-
sble for them to take heavy loads We are try
ing to keep with the first company through. There
are about 500 teams ahead (; but think, by the
time we get to Fort Laramie, we will overhaul a
good portion OF them,

Union by extracts from its old files on this
interesting subject. 1t is new instance
of Loves Labor Lost. We paid comph-
ment to the Union, and the Union treats
it with cold insensibility. This is not the
proper mode of acknowledging such COM
pliment. No man is at liberty to neglect
those Acknowledgements which mark OF
respect like this from an opponent so richly
deserves. This is not the way in which
gentlemen who are ssknown" at Richmond
ought to conduct themselves. 1t would
hardly be pardonable in ''new man,"
from remote part of the State, and not
yet recognised in the fashionable circles.
We trust that the silence of the Union
Will in due time be broken. We trust that
we shall again have its views of this "un-

coalition !" now that it reposes serenely
OH its two fundamental principles-of polit-
ical abolitionism and opposition to Presi-
dent TAYLOR.

For the Republic.

If the recent revolution in the United States flor
revolution it was in many essential respects) has
been productive of change more salutary than
any other it has been in relieving the country from
that most imminent of all danger, an ENHANCEMENT
with the conflicting struggles of foreign nations.
With first magistrate either personally inclined,
or weak enough TO yield TO such influences, inevi-
table intermeddhng would ensue, with conflicts de-
structive of vital interests and the
of which we could not distinctly understand were
we even on the theatre of action. To those who
cooy scan the present state of Europe, il must be
evident that much of its turbulence must originate
in that diseased state Of society, when the most act.
i've members become Disconnected and form vague
plans of change, DESTROYS of imaginary good from
the destruction Of order such as il is At the same
time it can hardly be doubted but that the real peo-
Pile, the body of European society, deplore the
sequences and are hopeless of obtaining any SUBJ
stantia benefit from such means as render loss
certain, and gain doubtful.
Ofsuch Dangers one truly menacing hangs on our
own border; and were the United States ruled by
arpolicy, need we dwell on the sure consequences
Were the highest powers in the government to be-
come also the heads Of political parties, how long
could we, ourselves, escape the Storm Opinions
on national policy are no where else more extreme
than they are in the United States; but when and
where justice, prudence, and humanity are guiding
principles with those in authority and possessed of
influence, and national peace and prosperity more
valued and realized than fanciful theories or mill
tary 81 Try in perspective, futurity can be viewed
with hope and not dread Well is it for the civil
lied world that there exists in its bounds one great
nation to afford contrast, on wide scale, between
order and disorder. Fearful must be the RESPONSE
bility Of those who would mar such an experiment.

Now, this strikes us as little peculiar
No man knows better than Mr.. BUTLER
that the late Executive sometimes exer-
cised the removing and appointing power
Unless we are strangely amiss in our recol-
lections Mr.. BUTLER himself suffered some
thing from the exercise of this power, for
participating in the formation of the very
faction into which he now seeks to absorb
the Locofoco party proper. More than
this; it was by the exercise of this very
power that President TAYLOR was enabled
to ferret out and expose the delinquencies
and Manifestations of Mr.. Eli MOORE, over
which Mr. BUTLER and his successors had
been sleeping for upwards of four years.
Can Mr.. BUTLER deny that these malver-
sations ought to have been exposed' Can
Mr.. BUTLER say that removal which led
to their exposure was not wise and timely,
and demanded by the exigences of the
public service'
But the reunion of the Locofoco party is
indispensable because, among other things,
President TAYLOR has superseded Mr..
SHEPARD by Mr.. PREscoTT HALL as at
torney of the southern district of New
York, and Mr.. Eli Moore by Mr.. TAI.
MADGE as marshal Now, does any sane
man believe that Mr.. Buffers anxiety
for ssreunion' Of the Locofoco party
arises from any such cause as this' Did
he take up arms against the late Admins
tration when Mr.. OGDEN HOFFMAN was
removed to let in his successor to the office
of district attorney of the southern district
of New York! Did he quarrel with it
when Mr.. Ell MOORE superseded Mr..
STILLwELL as marshal! When Mr.. NOR
RIs, of paper-seizing notoriety, superseded
Colonel GRAHAM? When Mr.. LAWRENCE
politely bowed out Mr.. VAN Ness from a
large stone edifice in Wall street?
As we remember the history of those
| times, the virtuous Mr.. BUTLER sought to
organize no opposition to the late Execu-
tive on the ground that it exercised the
appointing and removing power. In the
days of the late Administration it was all
right and proper. Good Locofocos were
put into Office. Such appointments fur
nished no just ground of complaint or op.
position. But now all this is changed. 1t
is now Mr.. Buffers OK that is gored

of President TAYLOR, and build up again

THE ..uNHALLowED COMBINATION.

THE .UNHALLOWED COMBINATION"
We opened the Union yesterday with
perhaps more than ordinary emotion-with
feeling approximate to agitation. We
looked for dish of ''noble sentiments"
We anticipated an exhibition of high
1'moral'' indignation. 1t did not seem
possible that the sole organ of the Oppo-
sition could have remained quiet under
the "disgusting coalition" and the S'un-
hallowed combination" in the city of New
York, of men "worse than Wings" with
pure, unadulterated Loco-Focracy, for the
purpose Of breaking down the Administra
ton of President TAYLOR. We looked for
another chapter on viperdom, and that
sold Federal Journal" Democratic in
disguise,'' the Evening Post.
1t seemed hardly possible that the high
toned sentiment Of the Union should not
express itself in thunder on this forma-
ton of new party, "of all others the
most fatal to the union of these States. "
1t seemed hardly possible that il should
omit TO pay its respects to that worthy
gentleman whom il was fond of styling
Z" the consistent" and "the virtuous"
BENJAMIN F. BUTLER. IL seemed hardly
possible that it should fail to denounce the
determination Of this virtuous man, and
his equally virtuous Barnburning associ.
ates in New York, with Mr.. Frederick
Douglass, the "colored abolitionist," Mr..
Henry Bib, /" the fugitive slave" and
Mr.. Joshua r. Giddings, who, in the &C.
stacy of his emotion, came near wrench
ing Mr.. Buffers arm out of It's socket on
the Buffalo platform. We expected to
find in the Union suitable notice of the
resolutions unanimously adopted by the
Democratic Republican Committee of New
York, which we republished with the com.
ments of the Viper in our paper of Mon
day. We were disappointed. We closed
the Union in blank amazement, with the in
voluntary exclamation" Morality dumb,
too 20
II was well, therefore, that we repub-
lished yesterday, from the Union of Au-
gust, 1S4S, the views then entertained by
that leading and able journal of similar
coalition. II was we'll that the American
people should no: have been permitted "to
burst in ignorance" of the sentiments
which the Union wiH avow on this sub
iect, when it shall hear of what has taken
place. The only explanation we can give
of its silence is in the supposition that it
has not yet heard the news. We cannot
imagine that, as faithful chronicler, it
could intentionally omit to inform its
readers of the important movement that
is now going on in New York-a move
ment not less important than that OF Mr..
BENTON in Missouri, and connected with

An amiabIe Trick suUUested n,

In the leader in yesterdays Union, be-
lieved to have been written by member
of the late Cabinet, the following passage
occurs:
The interference of Government meaning in
the of the steamer United Statesl was
placed on the ground that the Sd section nf tho
OF 2Uth April, 1915 Jour Neutrality law had been
violated. By that section, vessel fitted out in
violation of It's terms is declared TO be forfeited
Mr. Clayton declares that the President has no dis
pensing power. The steamer has been permitted
to 60 TO sea under bonds"
Note, reader, that the complaint of the
Ex-Secretary against the new Admins
tration is, that the Sd article of the act of
1918 had not been executed by the Presi-
dent. In other words, the Secretary,
or the Union, complains that the ship was
not seized and sold under the Sd section,
instead of being compelled, as she was, to
give bond not to violate our neutrality.
What beautiful complaint is this to come
from an Administration which was actively
engaged before it went out Of power-yea,
at the moment of its last death-struggle-
in fitting cut war steamer against Den
mark, while contending against the Ger
man empire What spectacle should we
have presented TO the world if, after one
Administration had encouraged the Ger
mans TO buy and fit out the ship, and had
actually assisted in preparing and fitting
her out at our own maynard, charging
the German empire, as Mr.. MASON di-
rected, on the books of our Navy Bureau
of Construction, with the expense of our
labor upon her, if the new Administration
had then seized and sold her under the Sd
section of the act of 1918, and the Gov
eminent had then pocketed the whole
proceeds of the sale II i'll becomes the
advocates of the last Administration to
complain that this ship was merely com
PEELED to give bond, and not confscated
and sold. The friends of liberty may
Judge from the character of this complaint
of the sincerity of that sympathy with the
great cause so loudly professed by these
champions of the late Administration.
