THE. INDIAN Wan IN NKw AlExrco.-N would
seem that the times have been somewhat stirring
Of late in New Mexico, by reason Of the war that
Is be ing carried on with the Jicariiia Apacies In
order TO hasten the termination Of the campaign.
the Governor Of the Territory has called INTO the
field 400 miliha--200 in San Miguel, and the same
number in Rio Arriba county; ono brigade has al.
ready marched, and the balance is cutting under
arms as fast Us possible. Thcse troops are rood.
and viii give good account Of Themselves II they
should meet the rcd skins; but their appearance
Is described as rather amusing. In dress they
arc as various in color and texture ~ was
the coat Of Joseph of old, and their arms
are as various as their uniforms somc have
guns, and some are armed with bows and arrows,
while others have followed The example of .Littlc
David" and have Como forth with sings In their
hands. II Is very fortunate that the archofs and
siingmen require no powder FOR uleir &c gincs Of
war because Just now it IL an article more prccous
than gold dust, In this far on region. Tho whole
force IS mo nnted; some have two horses, both Of
which, as matter OF course they ride at the ean,c
time, which adds much to their oA6ctivcnesa. Sc
Scral Indians have been made prisoners, and afe
now IN close confinement. In the eastern Part OF

Fzsminer tells us that "Virginis is the

intotbe secret that " the mOneyed and busi-
mess classes can control the masses, or in

founded and how true this viewis the recent elec-
tions in Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont and Maine
may perhaps afford an indication. But We fear
the great discovery Of this modern Columbus

some other method of enforcing its policy, and

THE CITY ADVERTISING.

There was lsng but not very edifying discus
sion in the Board Of Councilmen on wednesday,
which was duly reported in our columns yester-
day. II seems that Committee had been sp-
pointed topropose suitable arrangement for sdver
tsing the business affairs Of the Corporation, and
publishing its legislative and other doings in the
journals Of the City, and that majority of this
Committee had reported in favor of giving the
ob to two evening papers, and two morning daily
papers Of small circulation, TO daily German
paper, and an Irish weekly, all to be paid for at
the rates OF advertising regularly charged by those
journals. This Of course was a sheer piece Of
iavoritfm, which the Board very properly re-
jected, to adopt instead the plan of giving tue
advertising to the lowest bidder, each psper to
specify not only its charge per line, but also the
lumber of copies it circulates within tbs City.
This is an honest and correct basis for the bnsi-
ness, beside being, as We think, the only one in
harmony with the Charter and we hope the AL
dermen with assent to it without delay.
The resolutions, as passed by the Councilmen,
require the advertising to be given to seven JApers
This larger number than is necessary. Three
or four will be found amply sufficient, especially
as everything worthy of particular attention in
the proceedings of the Corporation is sure OF
being reported as a matter Of news in all the
journals What need, then, of going to the ex-
pense of filing up seven of them with this mass
of uninterestirg matter! There is not the
slightest use in such an expenditure, and We
trust il may be prevented.
1t s no great object for newspaper to have
this advertising. In the first place, the prices
paid for it hitherto and that are likely to be paid
hereafter, afford no adequate compensation for
the space occupied, while all the Advertisements
the Corporation ever published would not add
fifty subscribers to the list Of either of the lead
ing journals. For our own part, We are not
specially anxious to obtain part Of the contract
in question, and shall probably be underbdden
in our proposals, should We make any; but We
hope that plan of giving the work to that journal
of adequate circulation in the City, which offers
to do the work st the lowest price per thousand
copies circulated, will be rigidIy and impsrtally
adhered to.

The Courier des Etats UNs Of yesterday reiterates
false statement respecting this journal, which il has
repested we know not how many times before, and
which, though of little consequence in itself, may as
wei, be corrected In speaking Of an article IN which
we examined, from strictly military point Of view,
the operations at the capture of BomaSund and rem
dered, as we think, impartial justice to all parties
concerned in that brief affair the Courier takes occs-
sion 10 say that THE TRIBUNE has Russian editor,
an allegation we beg il to observe which is totally at
variance with the truth is the opinion absurdy ex-
pressed by the authority that we are controlled
by Russian sentiments. As to the mere opinion, we arc
quite Indifferent, but by what law of good neghoor-
hood or good manners our cotemporary sees ht to
assert so often and positively fact, what docs
not and cannot know to be such, we do rot pretend to
understand. And since are upon the subject, tho
Courier will allow rather to recommend il to read
and endeayor understand any articles it may desire
to controver and then to discuss their statements on
their own merits, instead OF answering them by an
uutruth to their personal authorship, as Il is wont
so gbly to do. 1t is true the latter method may be
more convenient for hasty and not very ccnscen-
tious writer but the former seems better adapted to
gain the lasting confidence of the public.

PorAToEs-IIIGH PRIcE.-A farmer near Phila-
delphs has been offered sl 25 bushe for thousand
bushels Of potatoes, in the field.
The reports from New Hampshire are more favorar
BILE lately for pretty good crop. From peck to
half bushe have been dug from four hills upon diff
ferent farms.
In this State, potatoes good upon wet meadow
lands, and worthless on dry bills.
In Wisconsin, the crop is universally good, and
quality excellent

We netice accounts of pigeons making their way
south, into the regions of nuts and acorns in large
quantities. The season has been favorable one at
the West for prairie hens. As railroads have ex-
tended further into their domains, We shall probably
have still more than last winter, bat without any
diminuton Of the extravagant price.
BUcKwHEAT AND TUREIPs.-Both these crops have
been immensely benefited by the late rains. Our
exchanges rapurous over the prospect of turnip
butter and buckwhest cakes.
HARD TINES FOR WATER.-We are told that some
Of the people of Lorain County, Ohio during the late
drouth have had to go eight miles for water for ordi
nary household use. We hope none of them got dry
In the night, and had to go to the well for drink. Il
would be quite bad enough to have to go for bucket
full for breakfast.
The LATE RAIs has not been as extensive as VIC
had hoped for. The HarrisJurg Herald Of Sept. l2
says no rain yet, except slight shower Sunday even

fore in 80 years. The Lancaster Daily says the late
rain only laid the dust, without raising the rivers.
The rain was so heavy on the Connecticut River
bat it raised two feet at Middletown.
In Louisiana the prevalence Of late rains has con-
iderably retarded the picking Of cotton.
