PRoTEsrANTs ON THE ARoRIGINEs. = How
strange it seems, (says the London Gairerse,)
that the English nation can scarcely ever
conquer the Indian race without DISCRIMINATING
it whenever its numbers are few. Look Mt
America, look at Canada, look at Australia and
New Zealend, and then ask the question,
What has Protestant colonists done for the
aboriginesa They have simply waged a war
of exterminatioEe and in some places they have
succeeded in nearly obliterating the original
pOssessors of the soil But ~, worms W when en-
harm; but serpents and wild beasts can: The
English colonist has never tried to 'cfvilize the
man whose country he has taken possession OF.
He goes forth to them, and says, II am yonr
lord and master; give unto me all you have
and GO hence from this country into another
which VIII allow you for time to possess:
The aboriginal moves away, and IS still
followed by the settler. He becomes despe-
rate, and the consequence Is deadly war.
There has been no attempt at conversion, no
fusion of races, and there they are two hostile
people on the selE-same soil. Can we wonder
| then that there is an Indian war in America
No. we are not surprised; for Professionals go
forth, not to conquer, but to obliterates the
natives of the lands OF which they take

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The figures Of the New York weekly bank
statement, show very flattering condition Of
affairs on the part of the respective institutions
comprising the associated banks. The contrac.
ton Of loans and the boarding Of specie and
legal tenders Were so visible that q favorable
Statement was generally expected. There 10
an increase in specie and legal tenders OF near-
fly S3,tO0,00. Loans were decreased over Two
millions and deposits increased nearly the
same sum. This very favorable statement Is
doubtless due 10 the double necessity which the
banks were under of also presenting quart.
erly statement for the inspection of the Compt-
roller OF the Currency The increase in the
item OF specie is attributed 10 the receipt of gold
interest on government bonds; but, as the
amount disbU rsed for this purpose was about
S6.00,OO0, tits evident a large share of it vet
remains In the hands OF private holders. The
''let up in the money market which was SO
confidently expected by operators in stocks
did not come Saturday. At the outset Of bust
ness, under q limited demand, the rate on call
loans ranged from seven per cent. currency on
government collaterals, IN exceptional instan-
ces, to seven per cent. coin. and TO the same rate
with a commission of one-eighth of one per
cent per day. A great deal of business was
transacted at the legal ra'e, with the commits
sion added. The market was without excite
meEt.

THE EVACUATION CELEBRATION IN Bos-
ToN.-The sixth anniversary of the enanci-

delivered an address, in which he expressed
has doubts of General Grant. and pronounced
negro suffrage at present a humbug. He was
followed by Senator Wilson, was congratulated
the colored people upon the substantial adyan-
tagss they had gained, and the great improve
ments made ia the last eight years, aud pre-
dicted that Congress would do Its duty by
securing 10 the cOiored men equal rights and
privileges with the whites He voucned for
General Grant as a President who would see
equal justice done 10 ALL irrespective OF cOndI-
ton or race, and would carry out the prime piles
OF the party that elected HIM.
