OUR INDIAN AFFAIRS.

We know Of no question at this junoture In
our national affairs move serious than that
growing out Of our India ,',ubles. The mil.
endeavoring to throw some light u7on the sub.
jeot, and are attempting to eluciiate accord.
ing to the knowledge they possess the precise
status Of the difficulties, and to point out the
way by which We as q nation may escape the
perplexities and the voxations which now en-
viron this question. Gen Sherman has given
US his views in his very able and instructive
report, and others are sndssvoring to throw
light upon the subject.
There are few obvious facts which cannot
be lost sight of in the treatment Of this ques.
tion. When II is proposed that the Gov.
ernment show no mercy; that 1t resort to the
rigid and inaexible purpose Of universal eI-
termination, spsriug not till the entire land
is rid Of the last vestigo Of the red man, we
are met with the civilized and Christianized,
impulses and principles Of the age, and q vast
multitude Of humanitarians exclaim aloud,
this will not do-sueh propositions are bar
barous, unchristian and diabolical; the hu.
manitarian spirit Of the age and tho all per.
vading spirit Of ChristiApity and the doc
trines Of brotherly love stand diAmstrically
opposed to all such plans a. look to present OF
even ultimate determination Of these red men
Of our land.
Still after all that the Christian may plead
and the Humanitarian suggest In the way Of
forbearanos and kindness, the practical ques-
tion recurs, what can be donel Is there not
q manifest destiny which doons this race just
as certainly and as surely as there was man.
ifest destiny appertaining to the Csnaanitish
nations when they faded away before the tri.
umphant march Of the Israelites into the very
heart Of their land' In other words, may We
not conclude that Divine Providsncs itself has
decreed the utter extinction and overthrow Of
this race. This is what some people argue,
but We cannot say that we are prepared to
accept this theory in its full purport. We
can see no good reason why this race should
be sIterminated, but we eau sec many reasons
why 1t should be civilized and christiapiIed,
and taught in all the arts and sciences and
practical and economical industries Of the
white race. Why not?
Ono thing is certain, and General sher
mans report shows this-we must either civil
izo and christisnize these people on our West
ern frontier aud bring them to adopt all tn,
peaceful industries of civiliIed life, or We must
extsrminate them. Our present policy 4
neither the one nor the other, and the oonse
quon,e is, that we suffer greatly from our half
way policy. Let US have one thing or tn
other.
tbs very evident that 10 this age we can
not adopt the sxtcrminating policy we mus
therefore adopt the humane and christianirins
policy, which will ultimate In the bringing
of these people into harmony with civiliE,C
life.
We might, If We would, learn something

remodeliugs, directed through cable BY Sec

changed from the shape in which they stood
when the earlier cable dispatches were re.
ceived-a solution has been reached which is

We arc authorized to say that the above

ports progress in his late dispatches to the
State Department. The question Of the
peaceful djustment Of the Alabama claims Il
approaching 4 settlement, and all things look
favorable, but there has been no dsauite con
clusion reached upon any important point, and
up to this time Mr. johnson and Lord Stanley
have not even settled so far as an sgresmsn,
upon the protocol.
There has been q good deal Of correspond.
sucs between our Minister and the British
Foreign Secretary, and 4 very friendly feel

only important fact yet developed is, that th'
prospect for an amicable settlement is favor
