curious scheme of cooperative colonial
ton, by which New-YOrk workingmen seek to
populate the Indian Territory, is described In
another part of this paper. Like enterprises
are developing in all parts of the country, and
some are meeting with extraordinary success.
Nor is the West alone the locality to which
co6peratives naturally tend. On Long Island,
numbers of Germans have formed colony
and built respectable town at Breslay, where
two or three hundred families now cOngregate.
Each year adds to the population and import
ance of the place, and it promises to be very
sncceSsfnl.

We understand there are many policemen
yet to be tried for drunkenness while on duty,
and we presume the Commissioners will, as
usual, dismiss them from the force. They
ought to be tired, by this time, of duty
which shows SO clearly the Generalization of
the Department and to thank us for the sug-
gestion that it can be avoided by proper use
of the appointing power. If they persist in
putting the tools Of Tammany on guard, they
cannot expect to spare themselves the shame
to which they have 80 often been subjected
during the last few weeks.

The Indian Territory promises soon to
become one in fact and form as well as name.
The semi-civilized Choctaws, Cherokees, and
other tribes concentrated in that district, are
engaged at this time in forming Territorial
Government, and are to ask admission to the
Union as State. The condition of these
tribes, socially and industrially, has greatly
improved of late years and under a good
Territorial Government they ought to be soon
instructed in the civil duties and become worthy
citizens of the Republic.

In all parts of the country the Roman Catholics
are expressing their sympathy for the Pope,
lately expelled from his temporal possessions i'll
Italy. AS might naturally be expected, the civil
and religious relations of His Holiness become
greatly confused, and much mixed metaphor
in reference thereto marks many of these res
olutions. The hight of the ridiculous was
reached by the Roman Catholics of Albany
who yesterday resolved that the personal in
dependence of the Sovereign POntif" was
"a right dear to American citizens

UAEGING IN MALABAR.

In spite of all the efforts of the English, the
people in Malabar appear to lag sadly behind
in the march of human progress From late
Calicut paper we learn the details of an exc
cution which took place there recently; and
if the other aids to civilization imported for
the benefit of these heather find no warmer
welcome among them than does hanging, the
people of Malabar are in bad case enough.
The execution Of ono of their number, we are
told, called forth the most vehement emotions
of horror and disgust Gmcng the Nair pop
uation. The crowd which followed the
cart out to the seaside, where the gal
lows was erected, surrounded the unfortu-
nate victim IN solemn silence and pity. The
particulars are given by the Calicut journalist
with q grave, awe-struck simplicity which
contrasts oddly with the accounts OF such
affairs to which we are accustomed from Chris
tian reporters. "Pokote Achuden,' the muir
derer who was to be murdered, expressed
" wish for coc0a-nut water. The doctor said.
" Yes, he must have it; but who will pay for

Still further down the Loire the French
have been driven. On Friday the Germans
occupied Vend6me, for which they had been
fighting the day previous, and the French fell
back toward Tours. This city, it seems, had
been evacuated in great haste, but whether
occupied by the Germans who lately ap-
peared south of the Loire does not appear.
If Tours is held by the Germans the situation
of Gen. Chauzy becomes desperate.
