THE COLORADO ISpIASs.-The trouble among the Colorado Indians continues Tie Mohayes and Yayapais in recent fight with the Pah-Utes and Chimihuevis were defeated with loss of twenty five killed The tribes are equally worthless and indoleni, and if there is no good prospect of getting them up- on reservations 1t may bo as well for them to wipe each other out We trust the new agent, MT Fudge, will do something to regu- late these redskins or abandon them entirely. The method of dealing with them hitherto has been calculated to excite their distrust and enmity rather than otherwise. Natural ly lazy and shiftless they are, we know, diff ficult people to ciyilize and make productive, but we are inclined to believe that with sys- tematic care, kept upon reservations, and taught habit7 of industry, they may be made an advantage rather than an inc,nnbrance to the whites. At present they are fnt-class nuisance.

Doe TAx.--A law has been passed during the present session of the Legislature leyyin- tax upon dogs, as follows: Any person agaias male dog IaHsf pay tax af ~l Enr the fist, and s f,,r each additional dog. Each '' lady $ dog is to be taxed S. The tax Co Ike assessed and collected in the same manner as the tax on personal property. At tempt, to dodge the tax will be plui,hed by doubling it. Tins law will have the effect 0I reducing the immense number of worthless CUTS with which the State has been afflicted CliyorHic Japer.
 Such a law would be beneficial in Prescott. for we have here an in0rdinate number ol dogs. For protection ai the mines, and on ranches, they are useful, but in town they are great annoyhnee, not only enrating a constant disturbance by their noise, but fre- quently attacking persons. A tax should be imposed and enforced. fla man attaches any value to bis dog he can afford to pay tax and thereby add to the revenue If his dog is considered worthless, the sooner he is knocked in the head the better.

IMPEACHMENT.


Already some of the fre-eaters who, a little
while ago, talked glibly of impeaching the
President, are beginning to moderate their tone
They now talk in qualifying phrases. They
begin to see that the great bulk of the quiet
people who voted the Radical ticket give nc
countcnance to such disorganizing schemes
The country desires peace, and the blusterers
viii have to nurse their wrath and keep it
warm for more convenient season. SO in
REGARD to the revolutionary scheme of subvert-
inc the State governments of the South and
putting up territorial governments in their
stead
The people are already taxed up to the ex-
IRENE point of endurance, and they want no
further agitation. They are not prepared to
support the legions which would be required
to maintain a military despotism, and Butler
and the other braggarts who talk loudest will
iud that the common sense of the nation will
treat with scorn and contempt all such vile
suggestions.

DIFFUSION OF THE NEGRo.-Governol
WORTH of North Carolina, makes suggestion
in his recent message which will hardly find
favor with the Radicals. He proposes that, as
the negroes are poor and wages necessarily lowiu
consequenceof theimpoverishment ofthewhites
the funds expended by the Freedman's Blu
reau be applied to paying the expenses of any
of neutrality-suspicious. who may desire to en-
igrate where they can better their condition.
If their presence is a blessing no one section
should monopolize it; if an i'll, all should IL
mite in bearing it. If the proposition is rejec-
ted, let those who have the problem to solve be
permitted to work out their own solution with
ont outside interference.

TIE Proposed IMPEAcHMENT.-It has been
stated that the Hon. John A. Bingham, Of o.
hio, in several speeches made during the cam
paign pleged himself to move the Impeachment
of the President at the approaching session OF
Congress. This, says the Cincinnati Gazette,
is not correct. What Mr.. Bingham did say
was, that while the Presidcntin his opinion de-
served impeachment, he would only make the
motion for the impeachment if Mr.. johnson
should officially assert what he had unofficial
ly proclaimed, that Congress was anillegal bo-
dy, unlawfully assuming the functions of leg
iSlation. Gen. Benjamin f. Butler, however,
seems to draw. no such distinction as this, as
indicated by his speech in Brooklyn, New
York, on Saturday night. Butler will proba.
lly find in the end that he has little influence
in the matter. The passion of such men will
not be supported by more rational beings

PRoPERTYAT HARPERs-FERRY.

As Congress seems not disposed to re-estab-
fish the Armory at Harper's Ferry, it is to be
hoped that an early disposition of the valuable
property, which is now comparatively useless,
will be made If we are not mistaken, the
Senate at the last session passed resolution
authorizing the Secretary Of War to sell the
property. If this be so, then the action of the
House should be promptly invoked, and this
viii no doubt be done by Mr.. Latham, who
seems to be both industrious and energetic.
land here we may say, notwithstanding bis
Radical votes, in some cases, that we think the
district has made a poor exchangein giving up
Latham for Kitchen-especially as the latter
viii be confronted on his first appearance at
the clerks table, with the stringent oath which
he took offcalty to the Confederate goyernlpent.
The existing iron-clad oath, which Stevens de-
lights in win doubtless be gulped down with
out gasp for breath
But to resume. The watcr-powcr at the
Ferry Is sufficient to drive al1zen factories. and
paper mills, cotton and wooden mills. and ma
chine shops of all kinds may be worked to great
advantage. All the necessary materials for an
extensive business are abundant and acceSsi-
bic Cotton is the only staple which would be
brought from distance, and this could be had
from Baltimore at very low freight The an
uual expenditure at amauulacturing town such
as Harpcrs Ferry might become would be ten
times as great as the Armory ever produced
The country for hundreds of miles round would
be greatly benefited by the change.
We understand that the great natural advan-
tagcs Of which we have spoken have already
attracted the attention Of capitalists.

important Decision.

Discharge Of Prisoners will be recol-
lected that some time ago four Citizens of South
Carolina were arrested, by command of Major
General Sickles and having been tried by a
military court, under the orders of that officer,
were sentenced to DEATH The sentence was
committed by the President to imprisonment
for life and the prisoners having been first dis
patched to the Dry Tortugas, in order to evade
a writ of habedS corpus, were eventually incar-
cerated in Fort Delaware Here they were de-
manded by the civil authority, under writ OF
ha5eas corpus issued by Judge Hall, the Dis
trict Judge of the United Statesfor the District
of Delaware. Judge Hall is magistrate ven
cradle alike by his years and by the dignity and
frmness with which he has through long
career, administered his high Office. The man
date of his court was obeyed; the prisoners
were brought before him, and after patient
hearing of the case, they were discharged, on
the express ground that according to the law
OF theland tn prisoners ought not to and cannot
be held under the commuted sentence of this
military commission and that they be dischar-
ged."
