EXAMINATIONS IN THE CENSUS BURRAu.-In
the Washington correspondence Of the New ork
Tribune of yesterday, we find statement relati We
to the operations the Census Bureau which In as
unjust a. 1t is untrue. The writer denounces the
course OF examination being pursued with regard
to applicants as great farce and alleges the DELAY
In making the appointments to be attributable TO
desire on the part Of the Secretary to make
political capital by keeping large number. In
suspense, In which event II is not supposed that
they will be likely to their inf uence against
the Administration, He also states that none but
Southern men are to receive appointments, Others
being represented as incompetent, and refers to
the able and efficient officers Of the Bureau a,
persons Of very ordinary capacity. The writer of
this article must either have been most eyreg
imposed upon by those from whom he obtained
his information, or DESTROYS Of gratifying feel
Ing Of political animosity at the sacrifice Of truth
and justice, to shave made any such unfounde ed
denunciations as these. The motives of these
public functionaries, in adopting the wise course
they have, are too well known to need any obser.

yuDrcrous METHOD OF PREVENTING CRIMES
AnosG THE INDIANS. With a view of more
efectually preventing the evil OF drunkenness,
which Is said to prevail to such an extent IN
many OF our Indian tribes, the Commissioned Of
Indian Affairs not long since suggested to the
agents OF such tribes plan which seems thus far
to have worked very well, and 10 Kelly to prove
very efacacious in removing the evil Tbs< was
the propriety Of permitting The Indians to enact
their own laws, and select their own officers for
the execution Of them. The Indians, at least the
majority of the ruling class, seemed well pleased
with the suggestion, and expressed their deter
mination to act upon IL at.once.
The Indian Bureau has just received the INTEL
ligenes Of the frat decisive measures being taken
In this respect, by the Omahas. The success or
failure Of the plan with them will enable the Bu-
reau to determine the expediency and practical
bility Of establishing such as q universal system
among all the Indian races. A regular constabu.
lazy force has been established by the Omahas,
with q chief, who are all selected by the In.
dams from their own number. These officers are
designated by particular badge, which causes
them TO feel quite proud Of their position and "a
condnct themselves In very digniied manner
The Bureau has received a printed copy Of the
code Of laws adopted by the chiefs and member.
Of this tribe I'm council, which are Of q mos
stringent character, and said TO be strenuously
enforced; they embrace every act In the category
Of crimes. Ifsome Of them were adopted by ouI
corporate authorities, and properly enforced, we
think II would add greatly to the morals Of the
place. Thechief and members Of the constabulary
force constitute the tribunal before which all tra
are had the accused being always entitled to fail
and Impartial hearing The decision Of this cour
Is final, and the prisoner 10 sentenced accordingly
Should those who constitute this tribunal, how
ever, fail to agree among themselves, as to the
extent Of punishment to be melted out, then thi.
question IL to be determined by the United State,
Indian Agent, whose sentence 10 to be carried int,
execution by the police forces
The following is the regulation with regard I.
drunkenness:
THAT any member Of this tribe who NAV b,
found Intoxicated or in whose possession an,
spirituous liquors may be discovered, shall b,
punished as the police may determine and tn,
extent of punishment shall be alike common I,
all members Of the tribe, whether chief, membe
of police, or otherwise. . -
That II any chief or member Of the police 4
found drunk he shall forfeit his annuity for tb,
year, or. II deemed best, may be whipped 70
