TIE MILITARY 50 IN ALAsKA.-We cannot
let our wretchel Alaska Indians alone, itseems
No sooner do our troops get there than - they
must imbrae, they must have incision.' Both
the army and navy got at the unfortunate crea-
lures this time, and after some firing and kill
ing, chief was captured. The following detes-
table items Of news also occur in the dispatch
&C good deal of bad feeling exists between
these Indians and the military. Their villages
are remote from the sea, and men-of-war cannot
get near enough to shell them
1t might be pertinent to inquire whose fault
it is that this bad feeling exists between our
military" and the Indians, since there was
no such bad feeling between them and the Rus
sian - military during the many years the
Gar held the country. Probably most people
here who aspire to the name Of Christians, viii be
very glad that our men of-war "clnnot near &c:
enough - to the Indian villages 10 she'll them.
1t is an abominable thought that We have only
extended our dominion to the North Pole as a
means of butchering the miserable people who
have built their nuts around II lur the last inou-
sand years. 1t seems to US that some of our
philanthropic societies might very consistently
look after this Alaska butchering. The officers
of the British troops in Jamaica were brought to
strict account for their excuses in suppressing
the nenro uprising of go, mainly by the ener-
getic action of the religious societies in London
Something like this might be useful here. But
at any rate let Secretary Borie and Secretary
Rawlins take our over-oficious " military - and
men-of-wsr in hand

other men to make the frightful plunge from the
window Of the car The train was Immediately
stopped, and backed three or four miles, but

The popularity Of Louis Napoleon is shown
BY a recent occurrence in Paris. At a lecture IN
one of the theatres on /" the phenomena Of
light" the lecturer, in order to demonstrate
certain theories, proceeded to enlarge some pho
tographs of celebrated persons, by means Of
strong magnesium light. All the theatre, except
in the immediate neighborhood Of the operator,
being in almost total darkness, the audience
coull be heard, not seen. The portrait Of the
Emperor was received with a storm Of Kisses and
cries Of Turn him out - "Viye la Repub-
Iquer' q His time will soon be up - etc. That
of the Empress met with worse reception, Il
possible, than her husbands. The portrait OF
Macmillan was received with cheers and cries OF
"who betrayed him. The experiments were
brought to an end at once, but the agents were
bafied by the darkness.

The President has signed the bill for the fur
ther security of equal rights in the District Of

word - white, " wherever it occurs in the laws
relating to the District Of Columbia or in the
charters or ordinances Of the cities Of Washing

on the right Of any elector Of such District, or Of
the cities, to hold any Office, or to be selected
and to serve as juror. The distinctions hereto
fore existing between the whites and blacks as to
civil rights in the District, which is under the
special control and care of Congress, are thus re-
moved, and the District of Columbia is as free
