VISIT FROM AN INDIAN. = Indian visits, like
angel visits. are few and far between, and yet
they will occur. 10 evidence Of the assertion we
will state that the spirit Of the famous chief Red
jacket. yesterday sent up his card to the CREs-
CENT. Like everything belonging to his tribe, the
card is very odd and consists of the chiefs pic
ture and name labelled on q square box of cy-
press wood filled with saw dust, the particles Of
which are hon opathically and cleverIy kept
from jsrring and consequent injury by IL square
glass jars. each of which contains quart of what
he sty les Red Jacket Bitters. These ters were
not unknown TO us. but their appearance In the
sanctum was nevertheless hailed with pleasure
Composed purely of Bourbon county whisky and
aromatic herbs, and devoid of the profusion OF
disgusting cubebs and cloves, which charscterizes
a great many other bitters, il is no wonder that
the Red jacket has received the comm endation Of
many eminent physicians and druggists through
out the country who testify to its stimulating and
iDvigoratip9 qualities. Pleasant in taste, women
and children do not hesitate to take it even under
the name of medicine.
The beneficial results which they and the stur-
der man derive from its use, when afflicted with
dyspepsia, loss OF appetite and difficult digestion,
is cure guarantee that il will preserve q well
earned reputation. We are under real obligation
to Mr.. John w. Norris. No. q Canal street, agent
of Bessrs. Barnett Peters, manufacturers of
the Red Jacket bitters, for his kind fhoughtfnl.
ness in renewing our acquaintance with an excel
Lent article in which there is no bumbug.

Secretary schofeld closes his annual report as

Secretary schofeld closes his annual report as
follows:
The relation of the army to the civil authorities
in the States recently restored to civil government
has been q subject Of no little perplexi'y. While
those governments were yet imperfectly organ
lied, lacking to great extent the sympathy and
support of the moet influential citizens. without
organized police or military forces, without arms
and without money, and without even authority
of law to organize and arm militia, the military
government. which the people had learned by
more than three years experience to rely upon for
protection Of life and property, was suddenly
withdrawn. Immediately followed an exciting
political canvass, having for its alternative re-
SUITS in popular expectation 1.-THE support or over
throw of those newly formed governments. The
result has been unusual disposition to lawlessness
and crime, and comparative inefhciency Of civil
government in those States. r-
The only laws of Congress providing for the en-
poyment of the military force of the United States
in support of the government Of any State were
passed in the infancy Of the Republic, with a
jealous care to avoid undue interference by the
national government in State affairs, and not de.
signed for such condition Of society as now
exists in the Southern States.
Hence, with an earnest desire to do all In the
power of the executive to preserve peace In those
States, and enable the people to fairly decide at
the polls the exciting questions involved In the
canvass, il has been found possible to attain these
objects only in an imperfect degree, but it is be-
lieved that, considering the difficulties Of the stu
alton, there is abundant reasons to be satisfied
with the comparative good order that has pre-
vailed throughout the country. The instructions
issued from this department with the presidents
sanction, for the government OF department COM
msDders, and correspondence with those COM
manders and governors of States, are submitted
with this report for the information of Congress.

But with regard to the outside ring-the third

reported that above $500, 900 In greenbscks was

said to have obtained from the secretary of the

by Mr.. Riggs sundry newspaper men and Others
known as lobbyists were the owners of drafts OF
various amounts on the treasurer of the United
States, which, it 10 declared Gen. Spinner books

A list of persons who are stated to have been
thus paid has been circulating here for some time
past. IL certainly includes the names of persons
TO whom such q statement Is decided matter OF
surprise. Among the sums specified in these re-
ports are such items as: New York Tribune,
$40 0c0 manager Of its Washington bureau, $4,000;
publisher of the Washington Chronicle, SIS ,000-
The correspondents Of the Times, World; Boston
Journal, Philadelphia Press, Chicago Tribune,
Boston Advertiser, Evening Post and others, are
all set down as having been paid various sums
