The Indian Rsurcau.

lT Is stated that the Senate Committee on
Indian Affairs has determined to report ad-
versely to the transfer of the Indian Bureau
to the War Department, but that 1t will sub
stitute new bill, making the Indian Bureau
into aseparate department, with its chief enti-
tied to seat in the Cabinet. We cannot see
that this arrangement will be any improve
ment on the present exceedingly unsatisfao-
tory state of affairs as regards the manage
ment Of the Indians on the Western plains by
he Government, and 1t appears to be nothing
more than subterfuge on the part of the
Indian Committee to prevent the control Of
the bureau from passing out OF the
hands OF Its present managers. It Is the
opinion of impartial and disinterested men
everywhere that the bureau should be trans
ferred to the War Department, IN compliance
with the recommendation of Generals Grant
and Sherman, as the surest way of correcting
the great evils which are known to exist.
The House of Representatives took this view
last session, and the subject was one of the
first that engaged its attention when they
assembled this winter. They promptly passed
the bill, which the Senate Committee are now
attempting to smother, by q very large msjo-
rity, and in so doing have, to great extent
at least, removed from their shoulders the
responsibility for the corruption and frauds
which are charged upon the present Indian
Bureau. II is asserted that the unwilling
ness of the senate to accede to the
proposed reform is owing to the fact
that number of the Senators
have friends in possession of fat places in the
Indian Bureau, and that some of the Senators
themselves are fearful that unpleasant dis
closures will be made if the bureau
passes under the control Of the War Depart.
ment, and Investigations are instituted into
the past Encouragement OF Indian affairs
The hesitation Of the Senate gives color to
these rumors, and, if true, this will not be the
first time that important reforms have been
frustrated by men in Congress who re-
fuse to vote for measures that will put their
personal friends out of office.
We hope that the Senate will have the
courage and good sense to adopt the House
bill as it stalds, in spite of the lobby iniu-
ence of the present Indian Bureau; or, il the
proposed substitute of the Indian Commit
tee ID adopted by the Senate, that the House
will refuse to recede from its original position
1t is time that some improvement was made
in the management of the Indians by the Gov
eminent, and If General Grants recommen-
datOn is adopted, the four years OF his admin.
istration will doubtless produce results salts
factory TO the settlers, in restraining the muir
derous propepsities of the savages, and benefl-
oial to the Indians themselves in securing
them all the rights and privileges they are
entitled to.

THR New WAR CLOUD IN EURoPE.-Europs
has been painting and yearning for war for
year, and at last she is about to be gratifsd.
By cable kilograms received to-day we learn
that the troubles between Turkey and Greece
have eliminated in an open rupture, and that
a naval engagement has alEeady taken place.
To all appearances Turkey has the endorse
msnt of the great powers of the West, who
urged upon the Grecian Government an accept
anoe of the Sultan's ultimatum. Bat this
endorsement will be Of comparatively little
avail il Russia sees fit to embrace the golden
opportunity now offered her of aunihilating
the Mohammedan power In Europe. At the
slightest sign OF Russian sympathy all the
Christian provinces of Tnrkey would revolt;
and II concerted action between them and
Greece should be inaugurated, it would not
require very great exertion on the part Of
Russia TO accomplish the ruin of Abdul Axis,
despite the remonstrsnces, and even the
material astistauce OF England and France
and the other Western Powers.

Coughs Apostropha to Cold Water.

Coughs ApostroPha to Cold Wafer.
The celebrated apostrophe to wa
ter given in one Of John B. Coughs
temperance lectures, is a gem. II is
said to have originated with q Texas
Baptist preacher. 1t is somewhat
modified as used by Mr.. Cough.
Pouring goblet of water and :ad-
yancing toward his audience. and
lifting it above his head, he said
Look at that Ye thirsty sons of
earth hehold It'll See its purity
How it glitters, as if mass of liquid
gems It is beverage that was
brewed by the hand OF the Almighty
himself. 7. Not in simmering still or
smoking fires, ehaked with poison
Ous gases and surrounded by the
stencil Of sickening odors and rank
corruption, does our Father in Heav-
en- prepare the precious essence of
life-the pure cold water; but in the
green glade and grassy dell, where
the deer wanders and the child loves
to play: there God brews it; and
down in the deepest valleys, when
the fountains murmur and the rills
sing and high upon the tall noun
tain tops, where the storm cloSda
brood and the thpnde,a crash and
away far put on the wide sea, where
the hurricane howls music and the

THE CHIvALRY.-A Nashville paper says
"a few days since some Democrats from
Randolph, Tennessee, passed over to the
Arkansas shore, and Kidnapped colored
man, took him to the Tennessee shore, and
cowhided him till his back was cut up, and
then covered him with turpentiue. They
charged him with having stolen revolver
from some one of them, of which, however,
there was no proof whatever. He had no
pistol, had not had any, and there was no
trace Of any in connection with him. The
fact is, he was cowhided and turpentined be-
cause he preferred to work for Yankee
who was planting corn on the Arkansas side,
instead Of some of them who tried to hire
him. Whether the colored man so outraged
by these Democrats Will survive it or not, is
very doubtful

/ The Ogdensburg Journal says A gentle
man of this town, heretofore one of the

/ his determination to vote for General Grant
! He says there is no use in trying to disguise
the fact that the people are for the hero of
/ Vicksburg, Fort Donelson and Richmond
! There are other Democrats in the vicinity
/ who have made up their minds to vote for
! Grant
| When Caleb Cushing heard of the nomi-
nation of Seymour and Blair on their repu-
diation and revolutionary platform, he re-
marked that he had hoped that the Demo
Gratis would serve up new dish this time,
but that they had presented the same old
I plate of hash.
/ The New Bedford Mercury states that at

several Conservative gentlemen announced
/ their intention to vote for Mr. Chase, whose

/ but to vote for Grant. We hear that one
prominent Democrat in this section has ex-
pressed the same deteru ination.
| The Washington correspondent Of the
Boston Adcerttser says A gentleman from
Tennessee says that several delegates from
that State to the New York Convention are
going to support Grant and Colfax. 1t is
further stated that they get their cues from
the White House, and that the President,
/ while he will not come out for Grant will dc
! nothing either officially or personally to help
