The moon comes out and glimmers,
The stars like diamonds CLEAN,
And long green boughs are waving
Ger a pleasant mountain stream.
And my thoughts travel backwards
Into the long, dead years,
And your face comes before me,
Seen through a mist Of tears.
We met-we loved-we parted;
The story ever new,
We hved--we hoped-we waited,
And so the long years grew.
A vast sea rolls between us,
A gulf that time has made.

Old beauties faint and fade.
Take one last look behind You

Does my face come before you,

THE INCoM TAX.

The income tax floats between wind
and ways. Some time since the Senate
amended the House bill so rs to ex-
empt salaries not received from the
Government, wages Of labor, and all
incomes of q similar nature, leaving
liable to taxation only bank and stock
dividends and incomes from perma.
nent investments. The bill coming
back to the House in this shape on the
23d of April, that body refused to con-
cur, and voted down amendments re-
ducing the rate Of taxation to three
per cent, and exemptinG $4,000 to
S. 500. Mr.. Schenck, In charge Of the
bill in the House, further announced
that he would not ask for a committee
of conference, but would leave 1t for
the Senate to do so fit thought proper.
This leaves the tax just where 1t now
stands under the old law, and 1t will
be unfortunate If 10 change Is made.
The amendment above referred to as
voted down In the House and which
it is understood General Grant favors)
probably reflects but the wishes and
feeling of the country. The Senate
amendment, however, Is q fair one in
its principle, and would be willingly
accepted as a compromise.

RAILROADS AND THE PUBLIC
LANDS.

1t cannot be doubted that the future
will abundantly vindicate the course Of
Congress in having encouraged the GREG
ton of 30 national 4 work as the pres
ent Pacific Railroad. The grant of
public lands, look at it as we may. was
one of the most successful economical
steps on record. Not a dollar has ever
been directly realized by the Govern
ment from the sale Of public lands.
To dispose of them a. actual settlement
demands and at the price now fixed by
law is positive loss, for the expenses
are greater than the profits. True, in
the end the operation pays, but by i'll
direction. There can be no difference,
then, between a gift Of the lands and q
sale, except this, that the gift is the
most profitable, since it saves thou
sands of dollars in the way of land
agents fees, costs Of transfer, etc. But
counting by %indirection, it is plain that
such a disposition of a portion of these
lands as will secure great public I'M
provements, will not only people the
balance more quickly, but will so en-
rich all as to make the public land i'll
vestment one Of great profit to the
country. We do not shut u eyes to
the fact that railroad companies, under
an unqualified gift.may hold OH to their
sections with too keen Il grip. But
this has been provided against in the
gift of land to the Northern Pacific
Company. The provision runs some
thing like this: "That all lands granted
to the company under this Act, which
shall not be sold or remain subject to
mortgage at the expiration Of five years
after the completion of the road, shall
be subject to settlement and pre-emp-
ton like other lands, at 4 price not eN-
ceeding 81 so per acre" 1t certainly
meets every objection that car be
urged against land grants for these
through routes.

From the Independent OF yesterday

From the Independent OF yesterday
Beachey, Wines & Co.'S coach, that

Wells, Fargo 81 Co.'S treasure box.
Charley Haynes, the driver, saw the
situation, and knew that the only
alternative was to pass out the package
called for. On the inside were seven
passengers, and one OIL the box named
Charley Robinson. One of the robbers
stood at the head of the leaders and
the other two at the side Of the coach.
Their demand being ~pcaceably COM
piled with, they gave an order to drive
on. The box, containing $4,000 In
| coin, was broken open and left by the
| side of the road. The transaction has
bean kept quiet, and diligent search
instituted for the robbers, but so far 1t
has been fruitless, with the exception
Of finding a pretty good clue to the
whereabouts of some of the gang.
They must have gone ont from town
and had a spy OH the box when 1t was
put OH the stage, who Informed them
that it contained coin. Wells, Fargo
Il Co. have offered n reward of $1,000
for the recovery of the money, and
$3.50 for the arrest and conviction of
the thieves.
The people living in the ncighbor-
hood of the Upper Hot Springs have

who mixed himself up in family mat
tiers. Mrs. Sharbock thought that a
little wholesome corporeal punishment
would be the best soothing syrup to adj
minister to her refractory lord and
master, and essayed the undertake

the third party, n friend Of the house

THE FAMILY OF ABRAHAM LIN.
ooI.N.~-r ~

- W AL e.
1t is reported that the President has
lately received a letter from Mrs. Lin
coin, which represents that she Is psc,l-
niarily embarrassed, and solicits the
Intervention of the President to secure
to her the relief from Congress so long
expected and desired. Why this act
of simple Justice has been so long de-
layed BY the National Representatives
Is not al all clear. Mrs. Lincoln may
not in all things have entitled herself
to the admiration or gratitude OF the
country, but 1t Is not proposed to re-
ward her for any act or virtue OF her
own. The simplest natured and most
unselfish servant that the Republic
ever had was, after his years Of toll
and sorrow, suddenly murdered ; yet
he lived to see the hard task Of restor-
ing the unity of the Nation completed.
When the darkness of death fell about
him his work wa all done. He had
been faithful to his trust, and swift to
discharge it from the first to the last
hour of his term of office. Amid it all,
lie had been too busy and too honest to
take time for money making. He did
not consider himself nor his family;
all he had of time, or work of brain,
or energy of hand, he gave in unseltish
thought to his country. Struck down
in the night suddenly, the prop OF his
family's support was taken away from
them and now, considering all he
did for the Republic, and that the
shot which killed him was directed by
those who hated him only because he
had been always faithful to his work,
it is right that his family should not
suffer peculiarly distress. They should
be the wards of the nation, and by it
carefully, worthily and generously
bestowed. The bill before Congress
proposes to give to Mr.. Lincoln's
widow the sum Of twenty-five thousand
dollars. The sum is little enough;
but, if she is satisfied, it is sufficient.
Doubtless the delay in this matter has
grown out Of the personal unpopularity
of Mrs. Lincoln; but she was the wife
of Abraham Lincoln, who wrought for
his death, and won, through simple
devotion to his country. She was also
the mother Of his children, and this
large-hearted man, whose tenderness
was wide and deep as the sea, was fond
of his children. Is it right that they
also should suffer for the unpopularity
of their mother? The country In this
case owes something to decency and
dignity. 1t cannot afford to permit
the family Of the noblest Of its patriots
to suffer the want Of little money.

The ISDIASs.-A recent letter from
the Indian Agent at Cheyenne Agency,
states that at present he is feeding
$500 Indians, being 5000 more than
anticipated, that much larger number
is expected, in consequence of the
daily arrivals. The agent asks for
additional rations, particularly coffee,
sugar and bacon, in order to keep the
hostile Indians quiet. The Govern
ment entertains serious ap~prehensions
Of an extensive Indian war. Along the
borders Of the Northern Mountains
and Wyoming the Indians are hostile
and the inhabitants are greatly
alarmed. The causes of these apprc-
tensions are the Big Horn expedition
the Piegan massacre, and the failure Of
the Government to furnish the sup
plies guaranteed by the treaties. y
letter from the Rev. Father Imoda,
missionary. in Montana Territory, to
General Alfred Sully, gives an account
Of a visit to the Indian camps on Belly
River, in the British possessions where
the Piegsns had taken refuge from the
massacre at the Marias River. Father
Imoda had an interview with Noun
tain Chief" Asaca, chief ofthe "Fried
Grease" band, "Boy Chief" ''Stogas,"
of Lame Bulls band, "Cut Head"
and ''Big Talk" all chiefs of different
bands Of the Piegans. The chief COM
plant was that the bands most friend
iy to the whites had suffered most;
other chiefs admitted that the young
men were hostile to the whites, but
asserted that having recently been
beaten, they would obey the chiefs and
give no more trouble. The smallpox
1t is reported, has caused frightful rava-
ges, and it is believed that the Indians
will be more docile. General Sully
advises that if a proper person, with
authority to act, should be sent among
the Indians, they might be induced to
give up stealing and other bad habits.

The APAcHEs. = The delegate in
Congress from Arizona, Richard c.
Mccormick, formerly Governor Of that
Territory, has recently been arguing
before the Committee on Military
Affairs in favor of allowing the Gov
ernor of Arizona to recruit volunteers
to engage in military operations
against the Apaches. He declares that
this lawless tribe had never entered
into treaties Of peace with the United
States, and had for many hundred
years waged a relentless warfare
against the Spaniards and the white
men residing in the Territory. The
United States troops hitherto have
been unable to protect even the prin-
cipal roads, and 1t is asserted that the
whites are murdered, and their bodies
horribly mutilated, almost every day.
1t is contended that q regiment Of bor-
der men will prove the most effective
and economical force that could be
employed in dealing with the Apaches.
