III
A boy nine years old, named Patrick Quoc,
q son Of James Quoe, Of this city, was burned
to death on Thursday, 18th. The distressing
casualty occurred In the following manner
While his parents wero away from home,
Patrick md his youngc! brothers, In company
hood, amused themselves about hay stack
near the barn aud pig pen, aud managed,
thought1ess Of the consequences. to sct fire to
some OF the loose hay, rapidly spreading, the
flames attacked the stack, which was soon In
full flames. Patrick sent bis little brother for
done, and the other two boys, frightened at the
result Of their mischievous folic, run home.
From some unknown cause Pntk1ck, Instead
of seeking place Of safety, crept Ii between
the pig pen and barn, there being narrow
space Intervening between them, covered over
with boards to shelter fowls: The flames al
most Immediately extended to these build
ings, but before: they were destroyed, the
people Who had gathered to the scene had
ample time to save the pigs, and other things
In the barn. No noise WAS heard and none sus-
pected that tho boy WAS In danger, for 1t was
supposed he had: childishly, run away from
the punishment Of his thought1ess act. After
the iire had destroyed everything within its
reach, smoke arising from between the ruins
Of the building, and an o1or as OF some feshy
substance burning, attracted attention. which,
upon examination, proved to emanate from
the remains Of the unfortunate boy. When
found, he wns in sitting position, with a
tin eol1ander, blackened and burnt by
the heat, over his head, which he had
probably raised to protect him from the
scorching flames. The tlesh had fallen from
the bones, leaving naught but q whitened skcl-
eton Of what had, but half IN hour before
been laughing, playful boy. A coffin was
obtained IS soon rs possible, and when the
remains, which, until then, had c1ung togeth-
or. were lifted to be placed therein, they fell
into An fndfstInguishhbIe mass.

ORR INDIAN p0LICY.

Washington despatch states TINT a
novel" official document has been received
at the Indian Bureau. 1t Is tabular analysis
OF the cost per head to the Government Of
killing Indians and squaws On the western
Plains Tie average cost Of killing an Indian
is set down al about half million OF dollars,
while for squaw the cost Is nearly two mil
lions.
Perhrps The most remarkable part Of this
statement Is that the fact announced Is given
! as novel" one There Is no novelty about
It, Il is merely history repeating itse,f," !"
and it is about the dflttth time that this
"novcl" experience in 1ndion- killing has been
repeated in the history of Ills continent,
Every Indian that has ever been killed in the
way OF Irregular" warfare in America has
cost to the government that killed him scarce.
y less than half a million of dollars. And
yet this fact, repeated oyer and over
agnin, has failed TO instruct the war-nakins
powers IN the fact TINT the policy OF killing
lndians at 20 expensive a rate Is radically
erroneous.
1t Is now generally conceded by intelligent
people who have taken the trouble TO mske
themselves acquainted with the subject. that
had the Government, Instead Of perssstipr in
this policy, invested but small portion of
the money In killing, or Otherwise eiIectual1y
fuprfessing, white rascals who have been en-
trusted With the management of Indian al.
falrs-1ndian traders, etc, the enormous sums
that have been wasted In killing few Indians
and their wives, might have been saved.
This is the lesson which ought TO have been
learned long ago, and which If 1t be learned
now will constitute the only thing s.novcl"
that the subject will present.
