The bloody massacre of Glencoe has
found its parallel in the recent butcacry Of
Indians on the PLAINS of Montana. In the
former, in 1922 Sir John Dalrymple. having
obtained from King William an order for
the determination of the Maci0nald5 Of
Glencoe-which it is said the King signed
without reading it-with 100 Highland sal-
diers, slew sixty unpreparci and uurcsjst-
ing men, and drove many women and child
rem out from their homes into a dark and
freezing night to perish with c.da0i Iun-
ger. In the latter, Colonel Baker of the
United States army. with three hundred and
eighty troopers, surprised an Indian vii
lage, on the 23i of january last. and
butcherei one hundred and ni1cty-scven In /
dians, of whom only fifteen were fighting
men Ninety women We're murdered, from
the ages of twelve years and upwards, and |
fifty children under twelve years. some of |
whom were killed in the arm= Of their pa
rents
We are told in the accounts of the mas-a-
ere that one soldier, private MulIi-. "alone
killed twenty Indians, mostly no doubt wo-
men and children. That it was an unrc-i---
Cd butchery, is shown by the fact that LUZ
one soldier was killed and none wounded.
This throws in the shade the infamous Chiy
ington massacre, and is the GROWING infamy
in the black list of crucltes inflicted on the
redskins. The Indians are cruel and mcrci-
less enough in their warfare; but this is far
worse than savage cruelty, for it was com
mitted by men who claim to De civilized.
President Grant has shown desire to be just
and kind to the Indians, and we trust viii
order an immediate court martial for Col.
Baker

the example
The exhibits Of our exports and home produc-

Of our national securities. For example Over
one huldrei million gallons Of petroleum-the

porter for a New York paper interviewed a

Of The man Of business thus summed his views
on the subject;
God has gone down because there was less
demand for it than hitherto, because the sales Of
government gold break speculation, because our
securities abroad have appreciated, our exports
Of cotton-balzncing exchanges have been largely
increased, our home resources Of every kind
hugely swelei, our Union established stronger
than ever, and because Of many other things it

a.! Hail ieW Hamp-hIre.

The result of New Hampshire election is all we
could have hoped fer. Gov. Stearns is re-elect-
cd by,l2OO majority, with a Legislature strongly
Republican in both branches, which will return
Republican Z. S. senator to Congress. Gen.
Donahoe, democrat, who is personally popular
and took some soldiers votes, probably elected
Railroad Commissioner by q small majority.
The figures show that the mass Of the democrats
stood by their candidate for Governor, the labor
reform ticket drawing of but little over a third
OF the democratic vote while the straight tenn
perance ticket polled less than 1900 votes 1t
was hard fight, and the Republicans Of the
Granite State have done nobly. In spite of for
mldable combinations without and divisions
within their party, they stood squarely to the
hight and their victory is really greater one
than those of former years when they elected
their men by larger majorites.
