to have become constitutional in the ma
ture of the average New Yorker. Not
withstanding the pursuit Of Tweed and
the flight of Connolly. In spite of the in
vestigations which have exposed the in
Vulnerable and interminable rings Of that
afflicted city. rascality seems as rife as
ever. The last case is the contract 10 con-
meet New York and Brooklyn by a magni-
fcent bridge. The commissioners Of the
work are now defending themselves
against charges Of corrup: extrav.
agance and participation in contract
profits. As the names of these men seem
reputable, and the appointments OF great
responsibility, it leads to the apprehension
that everything is rotten in that Denmark.
Even some of the New York papers seem
to weaken in their hopes of reform and
economy. The Times still makes the
fight but from the number Of skiymisbes

UNIFICATION MEETING.

Last evening when our reporter called
at No. ITO Carondelet street, for the pur-
pose of cleaning information for the pub
lie, he was informed by gentleman at an
inner door that the meeting was private
one. Finding that he had met with q
close corporation, or dark lantern arrange
ment our reporter quietly retired, unable
to comprehend how public good could
be accomplished in secret conclave. The
room where the committee met was only
large enough to hold dozen persons, and
the only face We recognized was that Of
Mr.. !. N. Marks, as the cabinet was not
brilliantly lighted. When the committee
performs its labors with open doors the
REPUBLICAN is ready and willing to assist
in the work. but we protest against any
thing like close political corporations.

CAPTAIN JACK IN IRONS.

Reports from the surrender of the Mo-
doc chiefs represent that they manifest
great repugnance to be handcufed. but
an apathetic indifference to death. 1t
would really seem that their leader has
very little to live for The collision be-
tween civilization ard barbarism is that
between the vessel of iron and that of
earthenware. The rule of savage warfare
is treachery and murder. When resorted
to. it must be met by inexorable punish
ment Such is the lot of the MOdocs.
Driven from one reserve to another; COM
PEELED to leave their hunting and fishing
grounds-a as important to them. no doubt,
as our farms and countinghouses-it is
not surprising the savages should resist in
their savage way, nor that they should
be pursued, captured and shot for
doing so. Then follow the natural
results Of defeated cause. Treachery
and disaffection among the followers of
the chief. This must have been as keenly
felt by the Modoc chief as his blunted
sensi bilities could allow. The betrayal of
the Modocs by the deserters destroyed all
confidence of successful resistance or of
ultimate escape, and the surrender was
sullen and hopeless These savages are
doomed, and it is best for the pro-
gress and safety of civilization that
they should be. but if Caractacus or
Boadicea or any other British savages
have had heroic speeches put in their
mouths by sympathetic poets long after
all danger from their war spears had
passed away. so at some future period,
when the popular scalps shall set firmly
on the caput, it may be supposed the hero
of the lava beds will be made immortal for
the valor of his conduct and the manner

chsritably disposed by means Of playing
cracked violin, harp, triangle, or some
other kind of musical instrument. They
are sent forth in the early morning, after
grudgingly giving them a piece OF common
black bread about three inches square,
which, with the same allowance at night, 10
all the food ever given them.
And the following specimen OF this
cruelty is added:
One of the children is twelve years OF
age. and the son of a farmer IN Calvlello,
Basilcata, Italy. Some one, he says, came
into his fathers house, one night, and TOOK
him from his bed, and the next he remem-
bers was being at sea, with eight other chill
dren from the same neighborbood, in charge
of a strange man whom they were taught 10
call "padrone." and who daily instilled
into their minds the great power he pos
sessed, and the necessity fOr them to obey
him. This man brought them all 10 New
York, and took them to house in Crosby
street, where he lodged them IN cellar,
straw being given them to eleep on, and
without covering. The next day. the boy
says, he was sent into the street with
triangle to play previously y being instructed
what to say if any one questioned him as to
who had sent him out to beg in this man
ner. On returning at night he was beaten
because he did not take home enough
money, and was again thrust down IN the
| cellar. which has been his only habitation,
| with ten others, for the past three years:
| The only food served out was small
square piece of common black bread.
We welcome immigration, and tender
to all the world the protection of our in
stitutions, but it is very sad return for
this hospitality when such a practice as
child stealing and slavery is imported
under the broad invitation. Such seems
the practice:
The children are brought over by persons
| appointed by the conspirators for that pur-
| pose, chief of convoy, who really becomes
| the master or driver. This person Is repre-
sented as the father OF the children, and as
such takes absolute charge, from the time
they are bought or stolen from their native
villages until they are sold to new masters
or "padrOni" in Crosby street.
Very often the merest infants may be
seen in our streets with violin or tam
BORNE, halting wherever they can get a
nickel or crust, and plying their vaga-
bond trade for subsistence May it not
be possible that this slave trade in chill
dren may comprehend our own city with
others? Let the policemen inquire into it.
