The CANCELLATION PoLIoY "A "Bos-
teuan" writes from Charleston, S. G.,
to the Boston Journal as follows:
Before leaving home l was strongly
inclined to criticise and blame the poll
icy of the Government for pardoning
so many "big Rebels" tho more
wealthy citizens who had taken an'ac.
tive part in the war l am now in-
clined to think that policy good one.
l could name some prominent individ.
uals of that class. talented, wealthy
and influential, whose influence upon
the people is, / am now satisfied, most
sautatory. Cancellation must begin
somewhere. 1t is utter nonsense to
stand aloof, bad as these people have
been, and attempt to grind them to
finer powder. They havo already
suffered, and suffered terribly, for
their folly, and they see and acknowl-
edge it. Very few ladies one meets
in the street are without mourning.
Very few families are to be found that
have not been sadly afflicted, TO say
nothing of the widespread financial
ruin throughout the Southern country.

INDIANS IN MoNTANA.-A letter
from Sun River, April %. to the Ra.
diator says:
While Nicolas Schern was 'chopping
wood in front of the farm house, he
saw some ten Indians running down
the river, in the rear of the building.
He imm ediately ran into the house to
inform Ed, Huffman, alias Little Tex. /;
but Tex had gone for water; he then
ran up the ladder leading to the top
of the house, and saw Tex running
down the river, and the indians close
behind him. The Indians commenced
firing Tex wheeled and fired, and
then fell. Aftor they had fred sever
al moro shots, they scalped and strip
ped him. Nicholas Schern then fast
ened the doors and opened the port
holes of the house; but, there being
mono in the rear, he could not see what
was going on in that direction. About
this time, party came in front of the
house, some three hundred yards dis.
tant, and commenced shaking Tex's
pants and scalp, and hallooing Wo-
Haw Gee ! &C. They then moved
around to the roar of the house, and
built a large fire, Nick noticed
smoke in the rear building; and, the
wind blowing strong from that direc-
tion, the fire spread rapidly, and the
other buildings were soon in flames,
the fro bursting into the room where
Mr.. Schern was. He then went up
stairs and jumped out of the window.
At the instant he jumped out of the
window, case of howitzer ammuni'
ton, which was over the hall, explod.
ed, making tremendous report, and
filing the air with smoke and dirt from
the roof Amid the smoke and confu.
sion, Mr.. Schern escaped to the brush
undiscovered; he followed down the
river about Two miles, crossed, and
made for the Mission; but being un-
acquainted with the country, got lost
lie finally struck the Benton road, and
on the third day, reached the Dear.
born ranch, almost exhausted with
hunger and fatigue.

SECRETARY STANTON REsIGNING. G.-Secretary
Stanton is always resigning. He has been resign
ing during the past year, but has not succeeded in
getting out of the War Department yet. In short,
It appears that the more he resigns the NOR firmly
he becomes attached to the Cabinet, and the less
probability that the people will be permitted to

successor had been named--by the telegraph.
Now, we are informed that the Hon. Secretary has
not resigned, and that, at present, he will not ten
der his resignation unless compelled to do so by
the President. 1t is added, :" the prospects are,
that be will be sent on some foreign mission during

IMPORTANT THE SICK.-We invite the special
attention OF our readers to DR.. Easteriy's adver
tisements, which can be in advertising
columns this evening. Dr. Easterv's family med
icines are deservssl popular, have rapid sale,
give general satisfaction, and are kept in all the
principal drug stores throughout the western and
southern states. 1t will be seen that DR.. Easterly
does not recommend one medicine to all dis
eases, but prepares a remedy for each particular
disease, which can be relied upon to cure. II
families would supply themselves with variety
of his medicines, many doctors bill might be
saved also much sickness and suffering. DR..
kasterly's medicines have been twenty years es>
Ia blished in St. LOUIS, and wherever known are
regarded as The best in We say to the sick
and afflicted, try them For sale by all druggists.

WINTER PEARs.-A. F. Swsnder ESQ. of
Moline has left with US samples of his fine,
large Winter Bell pears. They are as
plump and handsome as when gathered, and
nearly as hard. The Winter Bell is better
for cooking than eating. and can be kept
through the winter as we'll as the hardest
winter apples.
Now is the time for our readers to order
their pear trees Of Mr.. Swanfer, from his
nursery in Moline, Pears always find q
ready market here at $40, bushel, and they
are IS easily raised as apples, as easily kept
through tho winter and they are just as sure
q crop. Every family should have few
pear trees, of the different varieties and Mr.
Swander can supply them.
He says the fruit trees in this region, as
far Ms he has examined, look well, and that
the prospect, a. present. is good for fruit the
coming sesson-not even the peach buds be-
ing injured.

CONFESSIONS ON THE BOUNTY FUND.-There
has been assessed upon the people of this
town. this year, the sum of $40, 100 55 to pay
bounties to soldiers for filling our quota on
the last call, about gears ago. The town
ship collectors and the township clerks are,
by law, entitled to per cent of this sum for
collecting and disbursing the money,-but 30
heavy did the tax fail upon the people tina,
the question Of charging commission on this
sum entered into the election of collectors
and clerks last spring, and we believe that
these officers, in every town in the county
agreed to collect and disburse this money
free Of charge, In consideration of securil z
their election and receiving their usual fees
on the ordinary business. They had rather
have the Office on these terms than to be
beaten and not have it at all
In this town the election of Charles P. Ly-
man, collector, and E. ". Spencer, town
clerk, was secured on that ground, and we
want to see, now, whether they are going to
stand up to the pledge which secured their
election. The fees to Mr.. Lyman would be
S573.0l on the sum and also S573 oil to Mr.
Spencer. Is this sum OF 81 LAG OF to be taken
out of the taxpayers of this city, or are the
people who elected these officers going to see
to 1t that the pledges made for them are kept7
The people are interested to the amount of
about eleven hundred and fifty dollars in the
answer.
