who think the Indians have been hardly
dealt with. They are being rapidly dis
possessed OF their hunting grounds, bus
the exigencies CT civilization demand
this, ana these OF them who may remain
2 few years hence must resign them
selves partially or wholly to an agTieul-
tural life. Bat it is said, and We know IL
TO be the truth, an Indian is considered
as little better than dog by thousands
Of people on the frontiers. They are
murdered they are driven hitheF and
thitbeF, and they are cheated constantly
by Government agents? But what
matter these things? These Indiana,
though wronged, have no right t. be re-
beliiOGs. We sll know how awful
crime that is, and that nothing can
atone for l. but Strengthening people iB
their winter quarters, and destroying all
they msy possess. Therefore this exDs.

DIFFERENTIATION.
History Repeating Itself.


We extract from the Philadelphia
Age the following article touching the
barbarous programme OF Gen. sHERI-
DAN:
An expedition is beiug organized for q
raid upon some or the tribes Of Indians
who have lately been in q belligeTeBt
condition somewhere near the Smokey
Hill river. One OF our Western ex-
changes says: 'Gen. Sheridan will
command the expedition in person. The
plan is to attack the Indians in their
winter quarters, destroy their lodges and
everything they have, take away their
arms, and force all those that escape
slaughter to live on reservations below
the Arkansas.n Most persons will re-
member that thrilling episode in Ma
cauley's History of England, Tecounting
the story OF the Glencoe Massacre. The
MeDonalds had been one of the most re-
fractory of the Highland clans, and Or
ders were cent to the nearest military
officer to eEteFminate them, This officer
marched his troops into the valley, pro.
Tossing the most friendly intentions. 1t
was mid d-winter, and his men were hos
pitably received into the houses of the
McDonelds. One morning before day.
break the signal was given and the SOL
diers began an indiscTimiEate massacre
OF their unsnspscting hosts. II strikes as
that Sheridan might improve his plan il
he would study this Glencoe butc9ery.
II he adheres to his present pre-
grsmme, it is possible that some few
Indians may es0aps daughter y by
running away st his approach. That
he will succeed in destroying their
lodges and everything they have,U
is extremely probable, for Gen. Sheri-
dan is an adept Ia the incendiary busi-
ness. Under the humiliating process
which is now to be applied to them, the
Indians who may escape slaughter will
become speedily christisnized and civil
ixed. Il has been found to be the most
effective mode which modern phiiRnthro.
py has yet devised for the dissemina-

less in business affairs, or unmind-

without being weak or rotten in
his personal character. Show me
a man who never pays his notes

the payment of his bills when it is
possible, and does both things as
q habit, and | shall show you a
man whose moral character is.
beyond all question, bad. We
have had illustrious examples of
this lack of business. We have
had great men whose business
habits were simply scandalous-
who never paid their bills unless
when urged and worried, and who
expended for their personal graft

could lay their hands upon. These
delinquencies have been apollo

gradients; four pounds acetic acid
one gallon molasses, forty gallons

and in three weeks good strong
vinegar, closely resembling that

This acid exists in vinegar in a
