VINCENT CoLLYER In his mission to the
Indians IN Arizona, seems to have felt it his
duty to treat the white people with no con-
sideration whatever. He ordered certain
scalawag Indians, who existed mainly by
making treaties to be broken, on reservations
which included some Of the best highways in
the Territory, and then, under his presumed
authority from the President, directed General
Crook to restrain white citizens with arms
from travelling across these reser-
vations, or else punish them. General
Crook declined to do snything Of tbe
sort, and thus matters are as bad
as they can possibly be for the Quaker policy
in Arizona. While we cannot doubt that Mr..
Vincent Collyer has the good Of the Indians
at heart, We must object to his manner Of op-
pressing white people In order TO carry out
his purposes. We would not have him treat
the Indians As guileless angels, nor the white
people as inhuman fends. He il evidently an
Indian philanthropist, much Of character
similar TO that Of Mr.. Bergh the animal
philanthropist, very jealous in defence of his
particular charge, but somewhat unjust TO
white people generally.

TIE Vote or tho State and City. r
The vote of the State this year for Secretary
of State is as follows:-

1t further appears from these fzures that
the democratic vote this year falls short Of
that Of last year 81, ,3l8--a loss due to the de-
moralisation Of the party. resulting from the
Tammany disclosures-while tho republican
gain on their last years vote il 20.67l, max
Ing democratic loss on last years majority

The total vote Of the Stats, nevertheless,

The comparative vote in New York city and

Here it will be observed that while we have
. loss Of only some three thousand on the
democratic vote Of the city as between this
year and last year, we have an increase on the
republican vote of nearly twenty thousand.
This increase is due to those voters who here
tofore have stayed at home, but who this year
went TO the polls and voted. To these men of
this city the republicans are indebted for the
election of their State ticket.
Now let US look at the comparative vote of
Kings county,

Total. ......................... 6O.7S7 69.75e
Here we have an increase of ten thousand
on the total vote Of last year, or an increase
of some three thousand in the democratic vote
and some seven thousand in the republican.
New York and Kings counties together show
an increase of twenty -seven thousand on the
vote of last year, and yet the State falls short
ten thousand. This is due to the comparative
apathy of the rural districts; for it shows that
outside Of this corner of the State the popular
excitement about the Governor last year was
greater than this years excitement about the
Tammany frauds. On the vote cast this year
the republicans gain everywhere except in
few of the counties where Fenton has his dis
appointed followers, such as st. Lawrence and
Chautauqua, and in these republican majorities
are cut down, and Fentonism is the milk in
the cocoanut. Thus, as against Fenton and
al those anti-Grant elements, the election of
the republican State ticket is decisive victory
for General Grant.

Minister Catacsxy and tho Scandal.
There are certain persons in the world who
are never so much occupied with their own
business as not to be able to find time and
inclination to interfere in the business of
other people. Gossip and scandal are their
delight, and they are never better satisfied
than when engaged in the retail of spiteful
and malicious tattle. Unfortunately, many
newspapers are to be found willing to pander
to this unhappy taste, and hence the press
is constantly degraded by the appearance, in
seemingly respectable journals, of all sorts of
slanders and personalities in which the pub
lie have no concern or interest. OF this
character are the stories regarding the Rus
sian Minister Catacazy concocted at Washing
ton, the hotbed of scandal and of all those
petty jealousies and strifes that tend to make
life less pleasant than nature designed it
to be, and circulated through the medium Of
journals that strive to make up for their def
cheney in news by spreading such trash before
their readers. Minister Catacazy is the repre-
sentative Of friendly foreign Power, and his
position and Office should be respected. If he
has any misunderstanding of personal cha
ractcr with any member Of President Grants
administration, or if circumstances render it
desirable that change should be made in the
Russian Embassy at Washington, the matter
can be settled by the respective governments,
and the people have 10 interest in it. At this
time the assaults uten the Russian Minister
are in peculiarly bad taste, and it is to be
hoped they will cease entirely.

Turning Ont IIor.e. 10 Grn.s.

A correspondent Of the New York Times
writes as follows on this subject When
horses have suffered in their work from any
thing of the nature Of a strain of tho sinews
or their ligaments, or when their legs are
very much the worse for wear, they should
be allowed no exercise but such as they can
get in loose box they should be treated
as man would be who had spraiucd his ankle

hand, have seen horses which were good on
their legs, but stale groggy, and tucked up
from hard work, and dry and exciting food

them during the daytime in well-ventiat-
ed dwelling, darkcned so as to exclude the sun
and flies, giving them about peck Of grain
daily with bran and clover chatf they have
then been turned out at night in pasture
IN which there was an abundance of grass.
Under these circumstances they are never
tormented 10y flies when they are out all is
cool and quiet, the long grass saturated with
dew supplies an admirable, cool rerigcrating
poutlce to their legs and feet, and the grass
seems to plump up their bodies without much
interfering with their condition for work. |

about and teasing their companions and so
are better at home. This may possibly be
the case, but with valuable horses we must

Root Crops.

We have heard people say that there is no
adequate return from the root crops that it
requires a vast amount of labor to raise them,
keep the weeds down, and harvest them ;
that there are no iattening properties in them.
Very well; grant it. We will concede that
the greater, by far the larger portion, is wa.
ter. Indeed, from seventy five to ninety per
cent is water, yet it don't follow that they
are not desirable crop for farmer to raise

The Kitchen Garden,

OF the hundreds Of thousands of farmers IN
this country, few give any attention to the
Kitchen garden farther than to raise few
potatoes, squashes beets peas, little corn
and some lettuce and cabbages, None of the

struggle above the grass yielding the smallest
kind OF fruit, but now the worm has put .

acre, or even less, of land which he cult.
Yates, should grow all Of the currants, rasp.

Eaiiening Cntile.

The age at which cattle can be probably
iattened, will depend much upon their breed.

reared. Steers or helors, having from half
to three-lourths Shorihorn or Hereford blood
in them, aud that have been kept in thrifty,
growing condition from calfhood are usually
sufficiently advanced to be put up to latteu

If cattle are put up to iattcn before their
growth has sufficiently advanced, so as to
bring them near their full capacity of laying
up substance, much Of the food given them in

been obtained more cheapy by giving them
