TIE Court proceedings are concluded

THE Court proceedings are concluded
in our columns today. Much com.
plant is made about the trivial charac.
fer of the causes tried, and 1t is even
said that the expense of the Court was
much greater than the whole amount
involved in the trials. This was partly
owing to the fact that the important
causes were continued, mainly owing
to the absence Of Mr. BUCKALEw, but
the fact still remains that the Court
docket is crowded with trivial cases
that scarcely involve enough to pay the
fees of the attorneys engaged What
remedy there may be for this evil we
are not prepared to suggest, unless the
attorneys themselves set their faces
against it. The two opinions of Judge
ELwELL, quoted in the proceedings,
will relieve their monotony and com.
pensate the reader for the room that is
occupied.

THERE is remedy for Group going
the rounds, which may, perhaps, prove
efIicacious. 1t is simply allspicc tea,
the tea being made Of whole grains of
allspice. According to all accounts, it
gives almost instant relief in cases
where other remedies have failed, and
seems at once to cut the phlegm loose
and relieve the child.

The Indian Question.
From tha z. D. Union.

The recent debates in Congress 6a the Iadi- an question exhibit degree of ignoran. and stupidity on the part of Eastern members which is not only inexeusabs, but, in the light of the testimony which has been poured iato their ears from Arizona New Mexico and ths Texas fronier-positively wicked It was with the utmost difficulty that the frontier members obtained even the grace of a hearing. Final. Y, the following resolution was agreed to, and it IS all that Congress has conceded in behalf of the suffering people of the froutier
 Resolved, That the Committee on Military Af- fairs be, and k hereby, directed 10 report what measures are necessary to secure the better protec- tioa of the frontiers of Cexas, Arizona and New Mexico from the iscuTsions of hostile tribes of h. dians; and that said committee be authorized to report at any time.
 In speech in the House, February 8tl5 Gen, Logan, alters statipg his views (which We think very unsound) in opposition to employ- ment of volunteers in the Territories, made the following remarks, which are true to the letter.
 If the army of the United States is not sudcisnt- y strong to protect the frontier Of OUT country, make it strong enough to do it. I think it is strong enough to do it. think we have more than are absoutely necessary in the service of the country to-day, if they were properly disposed of round the borders. There is no necessity for mere troops than we have.
 The army is strong enough; but Go7ern-- meut shows no inclination to make 'proper disposition of its forces Reg;nents are idle in the heart Of Texas, while tae frontier posts are tbinIy gariisooed; others are sent to mala- rious districts in Boai5iAna and Florida to die of disease; aud thousands of soldiers are stationed at various points i'll the Eastern States where there is no req! use ter tAem.At the same timo, tin Arzoua where the Ap2ehes are muIdering and robbing the settlers, and gradually extirguishing civilization, there are ony tbree regiments; and company of these troops the other day passed through this ely for Benicia If the Government really means to do anything for its citizens in Arzona this policy must be changed without delay, There should be at least ten regiments oftrooFs sent into Arizona at once With this force, under the command of ,he brave officers who unders, tand Apache warfare thoroughly, the Indians could and would be subdusd in a few mogths. Does the Government means business?
