in reference to the above named philanthro-
pist: =
1t is encouraging to think that an effort
will now be made to pacify the Indians.
Nor do we believe that this effort will fail.
Gems. Sherman and Terry are good men TO
have associated with the commissioners.
They will, of course, call Father DeSmet to
their aid. That eminently great and good
priest went, In his youth, thirty-two years ago,
among the Rocky Mountain Indians, where
he remained six years, making peace be-
tween the tribes. leaving them the ,oecupa-
tions of civilization, establishing schools, &C.,
&C.. He Is eminently known and respected
by the Indians. Father De Smet, through
the missions he has established among the
Indians, now at war with US, can 60 among
Them and will be listened TO. If not with the
Indians, he is at St. Louis. With Father
De Siset at the head of Indian affairs we
should have no wars. But though he can
not be withdrawn from his church, the gov

If, as the Chicago Tribune admits, there
is great danger of terrible misgoyernment at
the south, through the ruleof debased ne
groes, agitated and led forward by still more
debased whites, who is responsible p Some
of the radicals have had the effrontery to
hold the mass of whites there responsible.
They charge that the whites won't register
but will let government go by default.
What are the facts In the first place, a
large aumber of the whites are DISTINGUISHED
and can't register. In the next place, there
is nothing to show that the whites who can
register have, to any serious extent, failed to
register. But the most important consider
ton of all is, that the blacks are numerically
very strong, and in seven states majority.
This, taken in connection with the fact that
there is no lack of really mean whites, . who
think they see their chance of riding into
power ON the necks of the negroes, is deci
sive. The responsibility rests with the au
thors of that radical Legislation which ha:
made such o state of things possible.

The Washington correspondent of the Bos,

political interest, we are constantly reminded
that the future of political events is begin
ming to assume a form SO tangible, as, to a
very important extent, foreshadow the COM
plications which radicalism is destined to
encounter in the coming presidential cam
paign. Theeffec oftheremarkable conflict be.
tween Senators Chandler and Fessenden, at the
closing hours of the session, the contentious
which prevailed continuously in the house
the division of sentiment upon the i'm.
parchment questionable general feeling Of
distrust-the apparent willingness of the
members to get away from each other, and
to avoid any further betrayal of the weakness
which dissension breeds-are the signs which
are here interpreted as the sure chickering's
of coming disaster to the party whose pur.
pose was to sacrifice every interest of the
government to its own perpetnation.

The Maine Standard says so many chan.
ges are occurring in politics, and such a
general dissatisfaction with Aloyalty' is ap.
parent, that the central committee of radicals,
in Maine, has been called together to discuss
what they must do to be saved. The com
mittee decided that the state would be lost
to the republican party unless the eonstables
who execute the prohibitory law, were
SCALED off, and they actually voted to cal
them off until after election. Then they

Each corner of flowers, of which there are
twenty, is of different and original design

In the valley beneath the sycamore tree!
Whatever befel
O Moon don't tell
Twas nothing amss, you know very vel
@ Moon you know,
4 long time ago,
You left the sky and descended below,
OF u summers night
BY your own sweet light
To meet your Endymon on Latmos heights.
And there, o Moon!
You gave him boon,
You wouldn't, I'm sure, have granted at noon
Twas nothing amiss,
Being only the bliss
OF giving-and taking-an innocent kiss.
Some churlish lout
Who was spying about,
Went off and babbled-and SO it got out;
But for all the gold
The sea could hold,
o Moon IL wouldn't have gone and told.

He is honest and true,
And, remember, too
