built for the Nez Perce Iudians. There
was an appropriation made for this tribe
amounting to some $4,000. One con-
tract has been let to build "a miles of
board fence. They are a good tribe of
Indians, and have always been flrm
friends of the whites, and richly deserve
what they are getting. This has been a
remarkably fine winter. AT no'time has
the snow been over four inches at my

horses arc fat, even hogs get most of

live without feeding, and get fat without

RESOLUTIONS.


WHEREAS We. the colored people, recog-
nizss and accept the principles set forth in
the Great Charter of human liberty, as
penned for the world by Thomas Jefferson
aad his adherents; and
WHEREAS, in the adoption of the Fif-
teenth Amendment we ind the doctrine OF
Equality before the Law fOrc1bly set forth
we fully appreciate the importance OF effl-
cient and staunch organization among our
people. for political security, and to support
the true principles that underl1e the Repub-
Hcan party, which conceived, originated
and pushed to final contamination the
grand and glorious triumph OF truth over
error, OF right over wrong OF justice over
iResoEred, /. That It is duty we owe to
G.d, ourselves and the Republican Party,
to rise above suspte eion, prove loyal to our
selves. and stand undinchtngly by the
principles and friends that called into be-
ing the Fourteenth and t1fteenth Amend
ments, and by our votes swell the ranks of
the firm and the true
?. That the Spec1ous argument presented
to US that the Sham Democracy have been
and still are our best friends, and that we
will vote the Democratic ticket, is fabri-
cation as base as it is false, and we there
fore hurl it back with scorn.
8. That 'by their deeds ye shall know
them, ," and the more closely we study the
various records Of the Democratic party
and the character OF the leaders thereof,
the more hxed becomes the conviction that
the party was actuated BY principles of
wrong, hatred and injustice to our race,
and we therefore cannot afford to vote with
4. That we devoutly thank God for the
Gift of Liberty, and that other gift, Abra-
ham Lincoln, who was the handspring in
the glorious machinery by which God in
the last ten years has revolutionized Amer
lean sentiment in reference to our race. As
a father and ueltverer of his country and as
conqueror, he was washington; as q
legislator, he was Franklin or a Hancock;
and his Proclamation of Emancipation is
the impress which his great mind made on
the noble United States Congress, which, by
its action, has placed our beloved country
far in the van of Progress and Christian
Civilization.
5. That the Executive Committee be in
structed to make the necessary arrange
ments for grand Jubilee in honor OF the
ratification Of the fifteenth Amendment,
as soon as it is officially announced by the
proper officers, and that the ARRANGEMENTS

ny Our Patent we entirely Obviate
Id all objections, as we use perfectly dry
filling, com posed of Dry Calcined Plaster of
Paris and Alum. We pack this mixture be-
tween the inner and the outer cases, where
it tremaius unchanged any number or years,
until fire melts the alum (which contains a
large quantity of waIer) and thus saturates
the plaster and forms the steam which al
ways preserves the contents OF the safe.
The plaster, by being wet, sets firmly; and
even if the alum near the Outsi8le is entire
ly melted, it fofms cells which retain the
precise shape Of the Jumps OF alum, ana the
hlIing of plaster keeps the safe as well filled
as before the fire. The advantages Of using
dry filling are very apparent, viz 1t does
not mould the contents of the safe; 1t never
can rust the iron; it viii always remain
