LIEUTENANT DERBY.

This person was character 10 the ear
y settlement Of California, and his book
has been generally read throughout the
Pacific coast AS humorist he had few
supcriors. He wrote under the nom de
plume Of John PhGnix. It was he who
took editorial charge Of the San Diego
Herald for week, during the temporary
absence Of Ames, the proprietor, and
changed the politics Of the paper from .
Democratic to Wbig sheet. He died
several years before the war. The follow
ing anecdote from the Oakland Tran
script, is illustrative Of his pleasantly
When Jefferson Davis was Secretary
Of War, he issued circulars to all the
army officers, asking them for specifca-
lions for proposed new uniform. Pho
nix, who was splendid draftsman, set to
work and produced q design. He made
10 great change in the uniform, but he
proposed revolutioniziDg the entire sys-
tenn of modern tactics by an iron hook
This hook was to be attached to the scat
of every soldiers pants.
1t applied to every man Of the service,
cavalry, infantry and artillery. BE illus
traicd its use by series Of well-executed
designs. He quoted high medical author.
ity proving its advantages in . saDguinary
point of view. The heavy knapsack, he
argued, induced, a STOPPING position aud
very great contraction Of the chest
But hung on the the hook By strap
connecting with the shoulder, it would
brace the body back and expand the
chest. The cavalry thus were TO be rem
dered more secure in their seats, hooked
to a ring in the saddle. AL the commits
stoned officers we're to carry light 20
foot pole, with ring attached to the end.
This was to be used during an engagement
in drawing the stTagglers back into the
ranks. He illustrated terrific battle,
the Generals and Colonels being thus oc-
cupied, running about hauling stragglers
back into the ranks. In many other un-
heard of ways did he expatiatc on the
value and efficiency of his hook. Jcfer-
son Davis was enraged. His dignity was
wounded and the service iDsnlted. He
instantly made out an order directing
PhGnix to be eourcmartialed for con-
tempt.
Marcy was made aware Of Phoenix's
transaction, as we'll as the cloud hanging
over him. He looked over the plates
He saw regiment, their backs toward
him, drawn up in line, knapsaeks,
blankets, hams and all manner Of camp
equipsge, pending from each soldier on
the hook.
! Marcy broke down. Said he to Davis:
I.It's no use to court-maTtial this man
The matter will be made public; the
laugh will settle entirely on Us, and be-
sides, man who has the inventive inge-
nuity here displayed, as well as the facul-
Ity of design, illy-drirectcd though it be,
is too valuable to the service to be trifcd
with" Jno. Phoenix was not brought to
grief, and Davis anger was at length
sufficiently modified for him to enjoy the
Joke It does not appear, however, that
they adopted Phoenix's plan.

FROM THE INDIANs

Dir. Garfield, of Ohio, gives tho fol.
lowing illustration OF the manner in
which the public money is used by
the Indian Bureaus, in an extract from
n letter written by distinguished ar
my officer for many years in the ter
ritories:
81 speak what / know when I say
that of every dollar appropriated by
Congress for the Sioux during the
last ten years, eighty cents have been
stolcn-only twenty cents reaching
the Indians. In 1856, when the at.
ficted tribes were brought from Tex
as, large sum was paid for moving
them, although they moved without
aid. They were settled on thc Wa
shita and fed by Government until
the rebellion broke out. They never
exceeded twenty-five hundred in mum
Der, yet they were mustered on paper
ut six or eight thousand. The con-
tract was let to feed them one pound
of beef and one pound of flour per
soul daily. Texas cattle not averag
ing over four hundred pounds net
were issued to them at eight hundred
pounds; and although the contract call
ed for good mcrchantable -four, yet,
during the year and n half | was there
the Indians never saw an ounce OF
-four. The agents gave them shorts
and middlings, while the government
paid for -four
These rogucries have been going
from bad to worse fo7 the last 20
wears.

AN OUTRAGEOUS INSULT TO
OUR COLOREO SOLDIERS.

We arc informed by the daily press
that "thc Indians OF the plains will net
take scalps from the heads of negro sol
diers killed in battle"
Is not this a fragrant violation Of the
spirit Of the civil rights bill, Of the new
amendment to the Consultation, and Of
the reconstruction policy OF Congress !
This is the crowniBg insult TO our col
ored citizens.
Shall the red skins be allowed TINS to
make distinctions on account Of race and
color
When the colored troops fights brave
", may those untaxed Indians scOFn their
scalps as being no trophy worth the TAX
ing off
This contemptuous treatment of the
black man by the red man is nor to be
borne.
| Senator Sumner must attend to this.
He must illuminate speeches against the
noble red man of the forest, who. when
on the war path, dares 10 show savage
disrespect to WOOL
He has abolished the word "wLite" In
the District OF Columbia, let him abolish
the word "black" on the plains.
Let him cause it to be enacted that
when the untaxed red skin says
"Ugh. big Indian no scalp nigger "-
somebody shall shoot him on the spot.
It is not because of the dif6cnlty Of tax
ing off the colored mans scalp.
No such thing.
Indians scalp very short haired, white
soldiers.
1t is their contempt for the negro -
an inferior race.
They must be taught better.
Here is missionary work to do.
And new stipulation should be made
| in all Indian treaties, that no distinction
of race or color shall be made With the
scalping knife.
The insult is too cutting.

A DOMESTIC PICTURE.

SuE sat on q sofa, her feet on II stool,
In her hands were ncedlc and yarn,
bundle OF stockings was piled ut her side,
Which needed both stitching and darn.
She took up stocking, twas out at the toel,
In the ley was gaping wound
While gazing upon u her lips wcro compressed,
And II seemed to me that sho frownsd
but Il passed like shadow from 0'or her swec
face,
AZ IL her good spirit said mo T.
And bending down cheerily over the work.
Her needle went fast To and froi
Her dark eyes turned downward. her dark hail
combcd back.
Her face very youthful and fair,
Thus busily plying Der needle and yarn,
Sho stitched with most wonanly care
As thus she sat darning in silence. alone,
T was q tabloau more striking 10 me
Than visions of EplendoF mong fashions proud
thTong,
In tho rich halls Of rcvclry.
I've seen dazzling beauties like fairies glide On
When the dance and the music went round,
But never before, on tho shore,
A prettier picture have found.
I've soen ssnoritas take harp and guitar,
Aud melody sweep from the chords,
Most enehunting-'t was less attractive 10 mo
Than the scene have painted In words.
Since then waves Of Lcthc have swept o'er m.
heart,
Defacing youths strong hopes and fears
Friends trusted and cherished have changed oi
have perished,
And dead Is the life Of gene years
But will remember. Till deaths chilling breath
Has froEen all liIs from my heart,
The action, the grace, and the face Of the maiden
Who darned with such womanly art

YOUR FIRST swEETHEART

You never can forget her. She was
so very young and innocent, and pretty.
She had such way Of looking a. you
over her hymn book 10 church. She
alone, of all the world, did not think you
n boy at eighteen, bat wondered at your
size and your learning, and your faint
ioreshudowing Of a sandy mousiachc. and

and the girls, who should have eaten sup.

bic eve, she pokcd with the druggist
clerk, and never even looked at you, how
miserable you were. 1t is funny to think
OF now, but it was not funny then, for
you were awfulIy in earnest.
Once, ut picnic, she wore a white
dress, and had roses twined ia her golden
hair, and she looked SO like a bride that
you fairly tremblcd. Sometimes you
thought, in just such snowy costume
with just such blossoms in her hair, she
might stand beside the altar, aud
you, most blessed Of all mortals, might
place golden ring upon her finger and
when you were left aIonc with her for Q
moment, some of your thoughts would
force themselves into words, and though
she blushed and ran away, and would mol
let you kiss her. she did not seem angry
And then you were somehow parted for q
little while, and when you met again she
was walking with another gentleman. Q
large, wcll-whiskcred man of twenty-cighI
or thirty, and had neither word or smile
for you and some weIl.meaning GOSSIP
informed you shortly after that she wa:

black whiskers, aud that sit was splen

then, and sent you off too some great city
far from your native place, where, after 0
good deal of youthful gri'f, and many
resolutions to die and haunt her, you re
covered your equanimity, and began tc
make money and to call love stuff and
nonsense.
You have rich wife of your own now
and grown up chIdren-aye, even two OF
three grandchildren, about your hearth
your hair is gray, and you lock your
heart up in tho fre.pFoof safe at your
counting house when you go home a,
night And you thought that you had
forgotten that little episode of your nino
teenth year, until the other day. wher
you read of her death in the papers. Yor
know she was stout lady. who wore
glasses, and had daughters older than she
was in that oldcn time, but your hear
went back and you saw her smiling ant
blushng, with her golden hair about hcl
face, and yourself boy again, dreaming
of wedding rings, and you laid your gra,
old head upon your Office desk and wen
