sheridan'S Indian Campaign.

The first gun of the campaign has been
fired. and the greatest Indian victory since
the days of Billy Bowlegs has been achieved.
Gen. Custer, with COO men of the Seventh
Cavalry, sailed out in one Of the terrible
snow storms of the plains, penetrated nearly
to the Texas border, and accomplished re-
suits which do not compare unfavorably with
his brilliant war record. 1t appears that at
early dawn he surprised a large camp OF
Arapahoes, Cheyennes and Kiowas, under
the lead of Black Kettle, and the orator SA-
tanta. some of whose deeds would go far to
show that his name told one syllable more
than the truth.
It was a severe lesson 100 of their braves
were left dead, their winter camp was des-
troved their ponies and large quantities of
arms. provisions and the various stores that
even an army of barbarians must have, were
cantured. while the disheartened warriors
who escaped the hard fate of their comrades
are wandering over the Indictment plains,
shorn of their fangs for at least a year.
The list of casualties is severe. Maj Elliott
Can't. Hamilton-a grandson of Alexander
Ham;lton-and nineteen men were killed,
! and eleven men and three officers wounded.
This enormous disproportion attests the gal
,artrv Of our soldiers, and shows that the
battle vas won with the sabre alone. Gen.
Sherman says it gives ga good initiation >
for Sheridan. who, with 5000 cavalry at his
command. bids fair to solve the troublesome
and enormously expensive Indian question.
The beginning is satisfactory to all but the
ultra humane.
For forty years the French armies have
been fighting the Arabs of North Africa, and
for a good portion of the time with the same
Indifferent success that has characterized our
western operations. In many respects their
difficulties resemble ours. The races are
equally nomadie; their bivoaae is their +
home both are possessed Of the means of
readily transporting their families and goods
The Arab has made the most proficiency In

JEFFERSON DAvIs's case has been continued
by the u. S. Circuit Court until the May
term in order that the motion of counsel to
quash the indictment may be decided in the
Supreme Court.
Tx following order has been made
UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT.
At this term of the Cour t, begun and held
at Richmond. in the said district. on the
twenty-third day IF November, one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-eight, and continued
until this day, a motion was made on behalf
Of the defendant to quash or set aside the
said indictments, and to dismiss the same
and the prosecution thereof. and upon that
motion 1t appeared that the said jefferson
Davis had. previously to the offenses charged
IN the said indictment, taken an oath as a
member of Congress to support the Con
stitution of the United States, the question
arose whether, by the operation and effect of
the third clause of the fourteenth amendment
of the Constitution, the defendant is ex-
cmpted from liability to indictment or prose-
cution for treason in levying war and
participating or engaging in the late rebellion
and upon that question the opinions of the
Judges were opposed; and therefore the
said point is, upon the request of the said
defendant, stated under the direction of the
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1868-12-09
The Lake Shore Railroad.

We stated last week that there was some
doubt whether Gov. Pages signature to the
Lake Shore railroad charter made the bill q
law. Our own impression was then, and is
still, that the bill becomes a law and this is
doubtless Gov. Pages view Of it. We also
learn that there have been other instances in
this State, as we'll as instances in the ~legisla-
ton of other states, and in congressional
history. of similar acts Of executives, which
have ALWAYS been held to be legal and proper.
And while the Governor believed that it was
entirely proper for him to approve the bill
after the adjournment Of the legislature, he
might reasonably enough delay such action
if he desired to take time to consider the
bill and a legislature that &C journs within
half an hour after a bill is presented to
the Governor for his signature, might even
be properly enough treated to a" pocket
veto" Indeed, the constitution gives the ex-
ecutive three days at least in which to de-
termine whether he will veto a bill, and any
adjournment that shortcns that time for con-
sideration, ought not to be made the occasion
for injurious reflections upon an officer who
only exercises his undoubtcd constitutional
~prerogative.
