foRsKY's Chronicle is severe on Col. Bakers

FoRSEY's Chronicle is severe on Col. Bakers
massacre of the Piegan Indians. 50 highly
commended by Gen. Sheridan. 1t says, we
learn that a rich plunder in furs rewarded the
enterprise of the murderers. The great carii-
nal facts in regard to this Piegan butchery
are three and besides them all possible declama-
ton as to the atrocities which may have been
committed by other Indians become irrelevant.
First, the murdered Indians were not the same
bands which have given any pretext for repri-
sails; and second, the victims were not slain
in open war but by treacherous surprise and
third, they were chiefly women and children.
Nothing can palliate conduct like this, whose
savagery is only PARALLEL by its uselesshess.
Instead of having rendered service to the
settlers Of Montana, Colonel Baker has invol-
we'd that Territory in another Indian war, in
which innocent white women and children will
almost certainly pay the terrible penalty for
the slaughter OF their Piegan compeers.
We notice by orr exchanges, that Jas Riley
Weaver, OF West Virginia, has been appointed,
by the President. Consul at Antwerp. Who
is he and what part of the State does he come
from Petersburg Journal
He is young man from Pennsylvania, who
slept few nights in Morgantown, just long
enough to enable him TO date his application
for the consulsbip at Brindsi from West
Virginia" He got this appointment, married
Bishop Simpsons daughter in Philadelphia,
and we supposed had left the couatry. Now
be turns up as the appointee to another post Of
honor and is again charged to West Virginia.
If President Grant chooses not to appoint
citizens Of West Virginia, 50 be it; but when
he appoints people from other States aud
charges them against our State, We fail to gee
the justice of it-W heaiag Int.

only embarrassment. The Robbh Rhg,
which the Union Reform partyswas organ
lied to defeat; has doubled the State debt,
has doubled and trebled State taxation, has
sought to array the blacks in armed hostility
to the whites, and has denied justice to the
whites while according license to the blacks.
Under the rule of that Ring, the whole State
has stood still, and while that Ring controls
the administration, South Carolina cannot
thrive, nor can her people prosper. Another
two years of the rule of the Ring will make
the people OF this State exiles or paupers-
Republicans and Democrats will be whelmed
in common ruin. AS matter, then, OF
self-preservation, and of common-sense busl-
ness calculation, all men who expect to live
honestly must support any movement whose
only object is the overthrow of that Ring OF
Robbers. The only movement which can
overthrow the Ring is the Union Reform
party. And that party every honest Re-
publican must joil--or be ruined, in the
event OF its failure by the insupportaole
taxation, which is the natural fruit OF reck-
less waste in public affairs, and of private
and official corruption.

axe action in regard to the present Crisis DC
tive en- France and Prussia, was very largely
att ended. and the enthusiasm which prevalled
was intense. Ats o'clock over 5oo persons OF
every class of French society we're crowded
into the spacious parlors Of the place OF meet
inc. while a crowd of sympathizers, unable 20
obtain admission, was gathered outside, and
caused no small surprise to the fashtonables
supping in the lower dining-rooms by their
excited talk and gestures. N. Gerdy, having been
chosen president, made brief but stirring ad-
dress. He had always considered war agreat ca
lamity, but their hearts had reached their
counsry's appeal and were ready to answer.
Prussia wished to dismember France, and
even dared 10 lay claim t. Alsace and Lorraine,
forgetting how the people of those provinces
rose en- masse and turled the BrunsWickers
beyond the French irontier. he stated tue
object of the meeting to be to make arrange
ments for subscrip ion to aid the wounded
and the widows. and orphans OF those who
might be slain in the national cause. MI. D.
J. Touhy, an Irishman, asked permission to
speak; he had lived twenty years In New York
and knew that his countrymen sympalmZeo
with the French, not only on account
of traditions and history, but because the
war was declared one between the Saxon
and Celtic races. If France desired Irish
aid 1t would be afforded, for nothing would
please an Trlshman more than to fight under
leader like Mcmahon. [Applause.] In con
cluson the speaker suggested vigilance CON-
mittee, TO see that the neutrality laws be
strictly enforced, and a mass meeting OF
French aud Irish citizens to counterbalancc
the effect of the Prussian demonstration. Al
ter stirring speeches by Mr.. Strauss and Mr.
Fortwengler, subscription committee OF
twenty was chosen, consisting of some OF the
most prominent and influential French citizens
of New York. Mr. Lasalle afterwards address
ed the meeting, and, before its adjournment,
over $4,000 were taken in subscriptions.
