sire to engage in m uurelontiug warfai with
their ancient enemy.
This state of feeling among the Indians can
not excite much wonder when we reflect up
on the position in which they were placed
Since their last general engagement with the
whites they have beheld much to excite their
jealousy at our encroachments, and provoke
within their breasts desire for renewing a
hostile aspect. They have seen several Of
their tribes, after warfare ending almost in
toward the setting sun. They have seen their
brethren in Florida hunted down by blood
hounds, and destroyed in defence of the graves
of their fathers. They have seen the rapid
advance Of the whites upon the western from
tier. Not content with resting at the "Fath-
err Of Waters" we have already organized
three States beyond the Mississippi, while
three more, -embracing most Of the territory
this side of the Rocky Mountains, will soon
be knocking for admission into the Union
Having witnessed all this, they have turned
their eyes to the Pacific Coast, far away tow
ards the setting sun, aud have seen one State
already thickly peopled, and two territories
embracing all the country this government
then claimed-fast preparing to follow the ex-
ample set them by Iowa, Arkansas, and Mis-
sour; leaving for them no domain that they
can call their own. Ia addition to this, they
have been duped by "trea,ies," and impover-
ished at the expense Of government officials,
men, whom theiE "Fathcr," the President,
taught them 10 rely upon implicitly.
In seeing all this, and realizing that they
must soon be leii without habiiation aud
without name, can it he a matter of wonder
that they should make this, their last conflict,
bitter and unrelentngi However much we
may deplore their atrocities, and lament the
mistaken policy which leads them to resort to
arms, we cannot hut have some sympathy
with their belief in the business Of their
cause.

DEATH OF ROGERS, THE BANKER
pOET.

The AYdgo brings news Of the death of SAM
utL RoGERs the poet, who, though not remark
able for his genius or his productions, was, from
his position and his connections, one oftho mos
remarkable men of the age. As has been re.
marked Of him, ii must have been by an extra.
ordinary combination of position, of intellectual
aud social qualities, Of prudence and Of wisdom
that the same man who was the friendly rival Of
Byron, Wordsworth and Scorr, talked finance
with HusKissoN, and PEEL on equal terms, eX-
changed ION mOtS with TALLEYRAND, and was
the friend of all the eminent men aud OF many
of the INDECENT and miserable who foufished and
suffered during three parts Of century.
The precise age Of RoeERs is, we believe, a
matter Of some doubt, but it has generally been
stated that he was born in the year 1900. Look
ing back over the years that have flown over
the earth since that period, the mind slaggers
under the recollection of the great events which
occurred in the Lifetime of one man. lie was
a young man when the battle of Bunker Hill
was fought, and nine of the Presidents of the
United States were BON since his birth. The
feeble American Colonies, which, in his early
manhood, were struggling for their freedom,
have now become one Of the greatest powers Of
the earth. lie had arrived at man. estate when
Dr. Johnson, the great photographer, died, and
he lived to witness the da5W and death Of many
of the greatest men Of the past century. Scorr
Moons, BYRoS, Wordsworth, SournrY, Col
FRIDGE, NAPOLEON, were all born after he be-
came old enough to remember their birth. His
first published volume appeared in 1897 and was
entitled "Superstion and other Poems - his
"ltaly," which was his last work, was publish
ed tbiry-lour years ago, His honse in London
has been famous for half century for the ele-
giant Inequalities enjoyed there by the great men
and famous women of the time. To breakfast
with RooERs has been the ambition of \ meri-
cans visiting London, and many of our eminen,
countrymen have had the happiness to boast Of
enjoying that distinguished honor. This Mes
tor Of bankers and poets died at his house in st
James'place, in London, on the night of the 9TH
Of December.--N Y. Times.

President SKINNING.-No man understands
how 10 use sarcasm of certain kind, better
than John P. Hale. Here is short passage
from his late speech in the Senate, commenting
upon that part of the Presidents Message,
where be stigmatzes all anti-slavery men, as
enemies of The Constitution. It is one of the
hes, and most richly merited skinnings -
which any public man has lately received
Mr.. Hale said
Thus the President undertakes 10 designate
as enemies Of the Constitution those who differ
from him on this subject. do not know how
others feel, but | say il is an insult 10 the ma
lorlty of this nation. The President knows,
il he reads anything beyond the most seryile
sh.e,s that his creatures send to him, that the
public sentiment of this country condemns most
decidedly his action in that Territory. No
mum knows it better Than he, OF at least no man
ought to know i, better; and when he goes on
to characterize as enemies of the Constitution
those who differ from him, he knows he so
eharacierizes certainly one half of the popular
branch Of Congress, and quite a number of the
members Of the Senaie-nO matter for them,
however; as they do not belong 10 "heallhy
organization" LET them take care of themselves

are here under the same oath TO support the
Constitution which no has taken, as enemies of
the Constitution; and when he does il he comes
down from the high place which God, in his
wrath for the punishment Of our national sins,
and for the humiliation of our national pride,

A DesrArcH from Washington, on the 9th
said-"The mails are all deranged." We sup
pose this is a misprnt for males, no small num-
Der Of those who are now in Washington hay-
ing for some time past given the most unequiv.
ocal evidences Of insanity. The air of Wash.
ngton, indeed. seems TO have a very astonsh-
ing effect on the minds of most men who are
exposed to it. A man Of average honesty
goes there. and he is soon converted into a
rogue. This would be lameniable enough, but
moi so very strange, il the roguery turned out
what is commonly known as "a good specula-
tion," but so far is this from being the case
tina, the charge is as foolish in merely world
" poiut of view as it is in all others. Tins,
a President lately went there who promised to
do nothing to cause "agiiaiion,' aud he in
voked God to witness his sincerity. Every
body was pleased. 1t was thought that we
were about to have a nice time in the United
States, and that the age of silver, at the very
least, was at hand, People were the more
readily induced to have faith in the approach Of
"good time" because of the general good
character Of the President, who was supposed
to mean well, and who could make more By
acting honestly than by pursuing a contrary
course But in less than a year we were all
disappointed. The President had become the
Gcrccst agila,or of all. The change was all
owing to that confounded Washington air
He had lost his head lie had become chief
of the "derangod males" mentioned above
And all for what ! Why, to get chance 20
live four years longer in so bad an atmosphere,
and for the privilege of residing during that
time in a large house that absolutely reeks with
malaria. Some men certainly do dispose of
their integrity for the most extraordinary con
sderations Boston Chronicle
