THE NEW ADMINISTRATION

We have only indirect evidence that
the Senate has confirmed the Cabinet.
That evidence is in the allusion to it by
a Chicago paper and in the action of the
Senate on Mr.. Stewards disabilities.
There is little doubt the others were
confirmed. Whether Mr. Stewart will
be is questionable. 1t involves the Re-
peal OF a portion of the law under which
the Treasury Department was organs
lied, and il seems desirable such a pro-
viso should remain. Ii is to be regrets
ted the disability exists, as Mr.. Stewart
is undoubtedly one of the best selecs
tions in the Cabinet. Very inoppor>
tunely the question of Free Trade is
thrown in as an element of discord. by
the expression of the Merchants meets
ing in New York. IL will undoubtedly
influence to some extent the action on
Sherman's bill to repeal 80 much of the
act as renders Mr.. Stewart Ineligible,
and requiring the action of the House
also, will indirectly give it n voice in
the NaDlnet confirmation.
The resignation of Mr.. Washburne
does him credit. President Grant is in
debted TO him for earnest, steadfast
frien 1ship, and in a great measure for
his nomination and election, so far as
perseyering and we'll directed effort
could effect it. He was "The Father OF
the House." thoroughly sympathised
with Grant in his views of economy and
the latter, probably, as with the others.
did not inform him of his intentions un
til he was appointed. AS Minister to
France he will creditably represent the
country at the second diplomatic post of
honor, and by his resignation leaves the
State Department open for some abler
person. better versed in diplomacy.
The Wholesale shifting of department
commanders, generally TO the departs
ments 10 which they were originally as
signed by Grant as General, and from
which they were removed by johnson.
shows that his purposes were well ma
tured when the original assignments
were made. and that he has had no rea-
SON 20 change them. They are each
much better adapted to and suited for

HOW THE ENGLISH GOVERN.

IL was stated in Congress in the de-
bate on the Indian bill. that the govern
ment of Indians in the British Possess
sion was superior TO ours in the human
ity exercised toward the Aborigines, and
an unfavorable comparison drawn
against our western pioneers. The hu-
manity of the British Government con-
sists in infiexlble frmness in the pro-
lection of its citizens, and in melting
out swift and condign punishment upon
the perpetrators OF outrages upon them
AS instances, the wars in India and
Abyssinia, in which native blood run
like water until the the Government
deemed itself avenged. Recently there
were accounts of a massacre of English
on the 10th of November, at Poverty
Bay, a settlement on one of the New
Zealand islands, in the South Pacific
Ocean. Thirty-four Colonists, men.
women and children, were killed by the
Maylaysian natives, in many respects
like our North American Indians, and
horrors perpetrated rivalling those of
Mana Sahib, at Cawnpore. The Eng
lish did not have long winded debates
denouncing its Colonists, but expressed
its sympathy, and will rejoice at the
tidings that the troops in New Zealand
have made a reprisal and killed ninety
of the natives. Neither will the officer
be decapitated, az Connor was, and as
Custar is threatened. Another massa~
ere is reported in India-One soldier
killed aud two wounded. IL is tele-
graphed over the world and England
will avenge its citizens. What did we
do when Fetterman and his ninety
soldiers were slain To the last man at
Fort Phil Kearney? What, in the hun
dreds of massacres that have occurred
east of the Rocky Mountains Some-
body in Congress and the press de-
nounced the pioneers as cut>throats, and
the Government sent out Peace Com-
missioners to handy balderdash with the
redskins and furnish them powder and
ball to continue their fiendish work
Except Crooks good work on the
western slope, and Custar's in the south.
east, nothing has been done in years but
to stimulate and encourage the savages
and then, forsooth, some esmooth-tongued
Congressman, with the Dnction of an
nuities on his lips. fervidly implores for
bearance toward the Indians, and cites
the rule of England as an example. If
we had little more of England's sys-
tenn there wonld be a vast Improvement
in our Indian affairs.

THE SHOWED m TRAIN.

From a dispatch In the Telegrap phic
column will be seen the state of affairs
on the L p r. r. The train from which
this party of fifty escaped is four days
foot travel west of Laramie. Estimating
their progress at fifteen miles per dag,
the train must be between Rock Creek
and Como Sta ation-the latter 637 miles
west of Omaha. From Rawlins' Station
to Como is s6 miles. which they made
after detention of ten days at the for
nIer place. The train officials seem per~
fectly demoralized and drunk There
are 200 people yet on the train: it would
be hopeless for women and children to
attempt four days trip afoot with shell
ter, food or fuel only at the stations.
The price charged for bread is appalling
NOT so much from the price as the ev-
ident scarcity that permits it, The only
telegraph line. having officers along the
road is owned and under he absolute
control of the railroad company, and the
failure heretofore to have communities
tion from Montanians ia doubtless owing
TO an interdict upon all messages rela-
ting to their situation. The dispatch
says nothing o. any suffering from hun
ger, which is an evidence that food could
still be procured, although at exorbi-
tant rates. We may trust hopefully
that, the true situation being made
known in Laramie, efforts will be made
to open the road, and there need be no
fears bu: that provisions will be supplied
if il has to be forwarded by pack trains
from the mercantile monks of that
American St. Bernard. IL will be a mem
orable trip, and the tale be well told, not
to the credit of those TO whom the dis
patch so severely refers. r-f

mR. JOHNsON,s ADDRESS

There are three principal lineal nui-
sances. viz: Short" debtors, spiritual
mediums, and long obituaries. We
have one of the latter. prepared possibly
in very bad taste by the defunct, and
certainly furnished in very good condi-
ton by the worthy and efficient" tele~
graph line between Washington City
and the town of Helena. We have
thought at times that il would give US
pleasure To accommodate Mr.. Johnson
by publishing an article on that subject,
but really he overpowers US in this in
stance-if it is really genuine. We
have our doubts about that. Cdadrds
are the order of the day, and the wags
of the country win immortal honors
who victimize the press. For instance,
the New York Tribune, in the Burdell-
Cunningham case, the Washington
CtrOniele during the war. the Gazette by
"Old Jakes" letters, and the Posi- by the
ipcumbency of the present editor. The
purported address of Mr.. johnson savors
Il
carefully, there is no point apparent.
Yet ii is deemed advisable TO hold il un-
der consideration. Under the circum-
stances, Mr.. Johnson would doubtless
wish something Original said, and ex-
cepts the suggestion that vetoes should
be submitted To the Supreme Court, we
find 10 new ideas-nothing but that has
appeared before in his messages to Con-
gress or his speeches to the people. He
may possibly conceive that his Bourbon
ized-Constitutional- al-liver-medicines are
sufficiently non-digestive to be admins
tered several times. but If it has not
done our readers good in the previous
of the nausea, il is not
probable they will care TO repeat the
dose just as the physician has his diplo-
ma wrested from him by an indignant
people. If he desire TO offer an apology
for his course, q Ia Reverdy Johnson for
feasting with pirate builders, il was un-
necessary. The country had concluded
if not to excuse, at least TO overlook
both gentlemen hereafter. If IL is for
an electioneering document to assist him
to the Governorship of Tennessee, we
do not desire TO be involved in the local
politics of that commonwealth. So, in
consideration of all circumstances, and
wishing Mr.. johnson a speedy trip to
his home, we omit the two column
groans of the expiring Modern Moses
and respectfully refer those interested
to our Demi-Johnson contemporaries, or
copies neatly bound" and stitched" :"
