strong arm of the Government will reach

be uk eful at this time and whether the
murderous wretches are blown from the
mouth of cannon or slaughtered in the field,
it is of little consequence to the world at
large. Certainly the interest of civilization
would not suffer If the entire savage tribes
were exterminated."
