The i~nsolent presumption Of the ne
croa.. Dunn and Isabelle, when called
,nou byltheir carpet-bag friends to pre-
.;de over the respective branches Of the
i,ecisl.ture of this State, cannot fail to
dseust the thinking portion Of the Radi.
e.I party throughout the North and
West. Forced into positions always be,
fore flled by men of high intelligence,
these dusky imp~erfections Of humanity
undertook to set all Law and precedents
=, defiance. Even the orders Of the Com
handing General and the all but su-
s,eme mandates of Gen. Grant were
treated sith contempt by the ebony agents
NJ Radical authority, who undertook to
ba not only a law unto themselves, but
N everybody else in this bcnighted re-
sioo. The facts show a clear case of that
madness which precedes destruction, and
nnvise indeed would be any attempt on
nort Of the unterrifed which would 30
change the record as to conceal these
facts or dwarf them Ivy more imposing
wrongs. Nothing could be more FORUM
.tr for the general interest of conservat-
lam than the !swless, insolent and des-
motto course pursued by the Dunn colored
idols of Radicslism.-N. o. Times.

A miniature rebellion took place the
other day near Washington, in which the
negroes pursued their b~enefactors, the
Freedmen's Bureau agents, with their
usu,l. weapons, raz 'rs. 1t seems that
4 negro settlement had gone into the
bog raising business, and carried it on to
,uch an extent that it became detrimen-
tai to the health Of the neighborhood.-
A mild ~remonstraoce on the part of the
benevolent individuals having the ma
tiou's wards in charge, soon convinced
them that their chances with Ethiopia
when crossed we're little better than with
rebels.

The INDIANS ON THE RAMPAGE
The Indians have broken their
parchment treaties already, and the
San Antonio Herald has u letter
from Fort Mason, dated Dec 13,
which says:
This county has for the last three
days been literally besieged by In-
dians. On the night of the 10th
they stole fourteen head Of horses
from Mr.. Moore, who lives near
Fort Mason. On the morning of
the llth they stole, or rather took
from him, Mr.. Hopes horses, who
lives on Willow creek, eight miles
east of this post, and on the same
day they gave Adam Keller q hard
run for his life, on Rock creek, a.
bout seven miles south of the post.
Sergeant King and another soldier
from the post were out horsehunt-
ing, and found four ponies badly
used up, and left by the Indians.
The horses were brought in. One
of the ponies was branded NJ on the
shoulder.

the post, Immediately sent out w. o

A New COUNTRY DISCOVERED
San Francisco, Dec. g. Honolulu
advices of the 18th November have
been received. The Advertiser, Of
that date, contains an account ofthe
discovery of land in the Arctic
Ocean, by Capt. Long, ofthe whale
ship Nile. 1t is thought It will
prove to be the polar continent
The past session was the mildest ex-
perienced by the oldest whalemen,
who were enabled to reach latitude
1880, and examined the land atten-
lively along the entire sout h G + Il
coast, and sEetched its appearance.
1t is quite elevated in appearance,
and contains near tho centre, about
longitude so. what resembled an ex-
tinct volcano, which is estimated at
5000 feet high. He named the coun-
try Urangell's Land, after the Rus
sion explorer. The west point is
i n latitude 1906 north longitude
1880 east. Ii c named tn c Cape
Thomas, after a seaman, who diseov-
cred it. The southeast point is nam
Cape Havan. The Nile sailed sew
eral along the coast and approached
within fifteen miles. Th e lower
part of the land was free OF snow,
and appeared covered with vegeta-
tion. 1t is impossible TO tell how far
the land extends northward. He
could see ranges f mountains n
the distance.
