THE NEGRO IN THE WAR.

The Army and Nary Journaih has an arti-
Gle on the employmentofnegro soldiersin
the war, which upsets some popular no.
tons on the subject. The general couclu-
ions reached are that the colored portion
of the army was very expensive and not
very useful. Perhaps it is not alto
gether proved that they were "not
worth the salt junk they ate" but the
opinion held by most army officers that
they contributed nothing to the strength
Of the army at all commensurate with
what they cost is fully sustained. There
were less colored troops in the service
than has been generally supposed. The
total number Of white troops enlisted
during the war was 2 1856, $50; Of colored
troops ss,o57. The largest number of
colored troops in the service at any one
time was l2s, l56, and this was in the
summer of 1868, after the fighting was
over. The Springfield (Mass.) Repu6R-
can, says that the larger part of the
colored troops saw no fighting at all,
and the commanders had too little con-
6dence in them to use them in the great
final campaigns. The sickness and NOR
tally among them was frightful. At
the close of October, 1865, after one
years service, chiefly in camp, out OF
ls7,o57 negro troops there were but
IS, 024 left. Only SO, 2s5 had been mus
tered out; almost none had deserted;
the balance, over $4,000, had died or
become permanently disabled.
Eight negro soldiers died of disease
where one died of wounds, aud the fig
ures prove the negroes power of resist
ing disease to be less than one-half that
Of the white soldier. The proportion Of
deaths from wounds was many times
greater among the white than the black
soldiers, partly because the blacks were
less exposed and received fewer severe
wounds. These facts and figures by no
means show that the enlistmentof freed
men was a mistake. It paid in moral
results, if not in military, and so con-
tributed something valuable to the 6nal
suppression of the rebellion. It is not
just to the white volunteers to say, as
some enthusiastic admirers Of the col.
ored race do, that they saved the nation
and that the rebellion would have been
a success if the negroes bad not come
to the rescue Of the country. The re-
bellion was in fact at its last gasp be-
fore the colored volunteers were ready
to enter upon practical work to any eI-
tent.

1t is rumored that an attempt will be
made at the Extra Session, to pass a
Land Bill similar in character to the
one defeated last week. The Governor
and his socials are itching for a full
squat on the State proportion of lands
heretofore solemnly dedicated to school
purposes. 1t hath been suggested that
it would take all they are worth, or that
could be realized from them to give

body requesting Congress to repeal the
national statute prohibiting polygamy.
in the Territories. The law in question
has been five years on our books, and
all that time has been a perfect dead
letter. The Mormons have treated it
with supreme contempt, the Elders have
preached disobedience, the SAINTS have
gone on with their wholesale marrying
and sealing, and the head Prophet has
taken his ~forty.ffth help-meet. The
memorial says, to Congress, in effect :
Gentlemen, you see how we despise
your authority /; suppose, for the looks
of the thing, you tell us to do as we
have a mind to-" In a word, Congress

SAN FRANCISCO, March l4-lP. n.

THE Sioux Indians have made a prop
osition to guarantee the safety of travel
through their country, and also the
safety of the frontier settlements, pro-
yided the Government will authorize
the organization of not less than $50
men belonging to their bands, under an
officer satisfactory to themselves. For
this service the Indians desire q COM
pensation of SEQ per month, with ra-
tons for themselves, families and horses
they to furnish their W arms, am
munition, horses, transportation, etc.
Thus far thousands of white troops have
not been able to give protection either
to travellers or to settlements, and it
would undoubtedly be economy in the
Government to accept the Sioux propo-
sition. ..
