INDIAN DEPREDATIoNs. A st. Louis dis
patch says that letter from Fort Benton dated
July Essays that the express from Cow Island,
under charge of man named Courtney, was
attacked by the Pi-ute Indians, July 10th, and
robbed of all valuables, and what could not be
carried off was burned. A few days before
they sacked the post-office fifty miles below
Fort Benton and tore down stOckade to raft
themselves across the river. They have stolen
every horse at Camp Cook and shot a man
named Fenix. Every place on the river be-
tween Benton and Cow Island has been pilag-
ed and destroyed. The main CAMP is now across
the line on British territory, from which they
make incursions upon our settlements. They
declare their intention to clean out the whites
this winter.

The CUBAN EXPEDITION FROM MONTREAL.
A Montreal despatch says the Governor Gen.
eral has issued proclamation warning Her
Maiesty's loyal subjects to abstain from any
participation in expeditions now being fitted
out to assist the rebels against Spanish autho-
rity in the island of Cuba.
The judicial investigation by Judge Coursal
into the affair commenced Thursday. Consul
General Satrusique arrived from Quebec, bring
ing with him two officers of the expedition who
had been arrested in that city. They were
quietly conveyed to the court house, under
guard, and there privately examined. Mr..
Carter, the Queens counsel, attended ON be-
half of the Spanish authorities. The prisoners
divulged the whole affair, and before noon a
number OF arrests had been made. Those ar
rested were held for examination to-day.
A sub-edtor of leading journal was exam
ined at great length as he first published the
report of the expedition.

~ The Boston Post is one OF the most high
toned and every way reputable Democratic
papers in the country. VS. always expect
from it The most candid and honorable expo
sition OF Democratic principles that is posi-
ole in the nature of the case. Our readers,
therefore, will share in our surprise at the fol-
lowing appeal to The lowest and most dis
honorable motives of our citizens, whish we
find in its issue of Friday:
So scrimped is Mr.. Boutwell, for means with
which to keep hundred millions of gold living
idle in the Treasury, and to continue with
out interruption the payment of the debt,
his ingenuity in twisting the laws to make
them screw the last dollar possible out of the
people is atched only by his industry in
counting up the sum of the monthly yield.
Lest the ship- building interest might not be
utterly chrushed, but have managed to retain
life enough To recover itself entirely under a
changed system Of legislation, he has set hon
est detectives to work 10 discover whether
every vessel THAI clears from one American
port to another, having permission to touch
at a foreign port, really pushes on to its place
OF destination as indica ed in its clearance pa
pers. Having discovered that now and then
one such pursues its convenience rather than
spoil its voyage by sailing by Congressional
statute instead Of the chart, he has issued
proclamation accordingly. All vessels that
hereafter fail to comply strictly with the let
ter and punctuation OF their clearance papers
will be mulcted in the full amount of tonnage
duties; in other words will be compelled TO
pay thirty dollars per ton when they return,
as well as when they set out. The Republi-
can ship-owners in Maine will be eager lust
now to know how tender this jobbing Ad-
mlnstration is of their interests, and ought
to be relied on to discharge their tonnage dues
once for all at the ballot-box.
We have heard public officers arraigned-
the Tammany tunctionarles for instance
for their incfficiency, carelessness and dishon-
esty. But this is the first time we ever knew
Secretary of the Treasury denounced solely
on the ground that he epdedoors to do his du-
ty. Mr.. Boutwell, is not blamed for any neg
ligence or incapacity. The Post finds him
guilty of collecting The just, legal dues uf the
government, and calls upon the Republicans
OF Maine to join it in rebuking hims We are
personally acquainted with some of the ship
owners of Maine, and we hardly think they
are open to suggestions of this kind. The
editor of the Post must be taking his vaca-
ton, and some grog- shop loafer has usurped
his functions.
The Portland daily press., 1871-08-05

The New York papers are still discussing
the late movement here in behalf of the
Portland, Rutland, Oswego and CHICAGO
Railroad. The latest delivery on the subject
is that of the Post, which thinks that the
government ought not to go into the railroad
business, and that $4,000 mile is a pretty
generous provision for a road which, in the
words of Senator Hamlin, "does not take a
dollar from the public treasury, or ask foot
of land"
The Portland daily press., 1871-08-05

SOME of the New York papers do not take
kindly to the 1ribune's sugges tion that Hail.
Connolly and other Tammauy thieves should
be sued. The Standard says:
That would be to give Tammany precisely
what it wants,-time. All that the members
of that concern are praying for, is to tide over
the present excitement and give easy. going
mOney-making New York time to forget ali
about the damaging revelations. Besides, a
law suit against Tammany man before
Tammany judge would be the sillest of farces.
The issue demands action, prompt decisive.
effectual Let ever man who has taxes to paw
decline to pay them until there is some assur-
ance that they dc not go into the hands of Mr..
Garvey, Mr.. 1ngersol and their partners.
This is an easy, simple solution. We presume
1t is revolution just now New York is ripe

His father was chamberlain to the great Nann
Icon, aud his mother, who was a writer of some
note, was an intimate friend of Josephine M.
Remusat is lawyer by profession, but his life
has been devoted to politics and literature. He
has been member of two cabinets formed by
M. Theirs, and has suffered exile from Louis
Napoleon. He is fine scholar and orator, and
will add strength to the Theirs ministry,
