RUSSIAN SCHEMES on THE DANuBE.-A
cable despatch Of yesterday informs US that
Russia has been urging on the Western Powers
scheme for the Independent union of the
Danubian Principalities. These principalities
(Wallachia and Moldavia), under the name Of
Roumania, have enjoyed species Of autonomy
and have been governed by prince nomi-
nally independent since 1861. The present
ruler, Prince Charles-a member Of the reign
ing house Of Prussia-has been in power since
1866. In certain respects these provinces
are still subject to the Ottoman Porte, the
Prince recognizing the Sultan as his liege
lord and paying him o nominal tribute. II
this telegram prove tc be correct II will be
difficult to resis, the conclusion that II Is the
object Of Russia by securing the independence
Of Roumania, on the one hand to isolate Turkey
mere eHectually from Austrian sympathy
and on the other hand TO diminish Austria's
chances Of aggrandizcment In the East II is
par, Of tho game which Russia is playing
altogether too keenly.

There has been rather a serious conflict OF
nationalities at Wards Island, the refuge of
unemployed immigrants and invalided strangers
landed from the emigrant ships. It is not un-
usual to find the Celtic and Teutonic races at
variance. It is only when they come to share
the labor which is the common lot of each
that they harmonize and learn the habits and
usages Of each other. In the comparative idle
ness OF public institution like Wards Island
they have no such opportunity, and the hos
tility towards each other s, therefore. not so
difficult to account for. Put these men to work
upon railroad and they would probably
never come into conflict. The riot at Wards
Island appears to have sprung from very
small source, but we can readily understand
how in q community Of idle men numbering
fourteen hundred or thereabouts, and divided
about equally between the representatives OF
two nationalities-as the facts show-and each
ignorant of the language Of the other, the
smallest trifle might have provoked riot
Under these circumstances 1t would seem to
be q necessity that there should be some kind
Of police force maintained on Wards Island
sufficient TO prevent the recurrence Of such
violent demonstrations. It is State institu-
ton, maintained by the Commissioners OF
Emigration chiefly out Of the Emigrant Com
mutation Fund, and the Commissioners should
see to II that subordination Is preserved. In
this case II does not appear that there were
any means at hand to suppress the riot except
the moral suasion Of the acting Superintendent
Mr., Hincks, and DR.. Dwyer, who, no doubt
did the best they could to suppress the tumult
until the arrival Of the police, who came to
their aid on the ice, by scows and boats and
every other means of transportation whereby
the isolated and unprotected island could be
reached.
If we are to have an asylum half prison and
half hospital, place Of refuge for the unem-
ployed, the siok and helpless, In the immediate
vicinity OF the city, like Wards Island, there
should at least be force maintained there to
keep the peace and prevent the repetition of
such scenes as occurred on Thursday. II is
evident that superintendent, three or four
doctors. half Q dozen watchmen and few
nurses cannot keep . thousand Idle men in
subsection II they get to quarrelling. The
Commissioners of Emigration should look to
this matter.

Western Indians Waking Cp Again.

What with the journeys Of special Indian
commissioners and their long and elaborate
reports of councils of war and councils Of
peace, 1t was supposed that the tomahawk had
been buried at last and the calumet perma-
nently substituted for II. But this supposition
proves incorrect, and the old stereotyped
almanac phrase, "About this time look out
for rain or snow," is still applicable to the
present date, with slight variation-"About
this time look out for Indians" After hiber-
mating in comparative quiet, the Blackfeet,
according to the latest news from Montana,
are waking up, as usual, with the approach of
spring They infest the Fort Benton road be-
tween Kennedy's ranch and Gun river. They
have killed at least one man, run of q hundred
settlers throughout the adjacent region. They
have burned Kennedy's ranch, thirty miles
from Helena, and carried of captive Mrs.
Kennedy and her children. Twelve hundred
Indians have gathered around Fort Laramie,
and their insolent threats and actual depreda.
tions indicate that they feel embodened to
repeat their old atrocities With the growing
grass WHICH Will sustain tnelr uOISeS tnelr vain
hopes revive of being able against all odds to
resist the invading railroads that begin to
penetrate their hunting grounds, and, as they
not unreasonably fear, to deprive them Of the
game which they mainly rely upon for their
subsistence. In word, they seem to be de.
termined to make desperate stand against
the encroachments Of civilization. There
might be something heroic in this determina-
ton If there were not grounds for suspecting
that, after all, they are simply resorting tc
their of-repeated trick Of setting out on the
warpath with the expectation Of soaring"
Uncle Sam into new treaties and fresh contri-
buttons of blankets, powder, firearms and,
above all, fre-water. Before the grass fairly
grows Uncle Sam should hasten to teach
them the folly Of such an expectation. Surely,
1t Is time for the United States government to
disabuse the Indian mind and put an end to
Indian wars forever.

must not and cannot be disturbed He will
be wanted to push through the work Of these
Southern radical reconstructionists to the grand
finale of a radical delegation from each of the
States concerned to each branch of Congress.
After all, though it does not appear in the in
dictment against Andrew Johnson, his removal
as an obstruction to the radical programme Of
Southern restoration Is the main idea underly
ing his impeachment. In this view, with the
promotion OF Wade to the chair Of Johnson,
the President pro tenn of the United States
however desirous to be the master of his Cabi-
net, will have to submit to Stanton as the real
master of the administration In the manage
ment of Southern reconstruction.
Parson Brownlow will be the right man for
the Interior Department under President
Wade. He Is fighting parson, and having no
more rebels to fight he ought to be allowed to
try his hand among the fighting Western In
dians and with that other fighting parson
Brigham Young, Of Utah Territory. John I'm
derwood, of Virginia, or John Minor Bolts will

the day, to these Cabinet speculations. Events
will soon determine what is in store for US.

sure az the rising Of the sun with the promotion
Of "Old Ben Wade' to the Executive man

The CIVIL WAR IN JAPAN.-A cable despatch,

dispatches had been received in that city
from China and Japan to the effect that c!yii
war was raging in the latter country with
great violence. The Shagoon party and the
Mikado party are said to be at open war. So
great, according to the despatch, was the in
security which reigned at the port of Osaka
that most of the foreign ministers had left.
This news does not surprise us but consider

reaching us, it is well to receive 1t with eau
