The last resort was that of hanging, and
officers and men of the triumphant army
OF General sherman were engaged In erect
Ing gallows, and hanging up these faithful
and devoted servants. They were strung
up until life was nearly extinct, when they
were let down, suffered to rest awhile, then
threatened aud hung up again. 1t Is not
surprising that some should have been left
hanging so long that they were taken down
dead Coolly and deliberately these hard
ened men proceeded on their way, as IL they
had perpetIated no crime. But il was not
alone the poor blacks Ito whom they pro-
subjected to torture and death. Gentlemen
of high character pure and honorable and
grayheaded, unconnected with the military,
We're dragged from their fields, or their
bins, and subjected to this process oftlreat,
beating and hanging. 7 U sHi
Along the whole track of Sherman's army
traces remain of the cruelty and inhumau-
ity practiced on the aged aud deienseless.
Some of those who were hung mp died un-
der the rope, while their cruel mirderers
have not only been left unreproached and
unhung, but have been hailed as heroes and
patriots. The list of those martyrs, whom
the eupidity OF the officers and men of
Sherman's army sacrificed TO their thirst for
gold and silver Is large and most revolving.

Indian ElOnIIance.

The celebrated speech of Logan, given
by Mr.. Jefferson, has often been quoted for
Its pathos and the speeches of Red Jacket
Farmers Brother, and Cotton.planter are
still esteemed models in their way. Those.
however, who suppose that pathetic appeals
have ceased with the lives of these orators,
win, perhaps, think differently upon read
Ing the following touching appeal address
ed to Colonel Sells by a Comanche chief, ut
the recent Council at Fort Smith:
"Brother, my shirt, yon see, is all In rags,
When return 10 my tribe and say to them
ri have been among friends, they will not
believe me, If rehirn in this ragged shirt.
My wife aud daughter will ask, Where Is
the calico your friends gave you y Brother,
what shall l say about this when | return to
my people2" .i ..I a4f..
The answer to this appeal Is said TO have
been as satisfactory as the the most sangu-
me hopes of the chief could have expected.
