The principal object of the Indian COM
mission which recently visited the Sioux AT Rcd
Cloud Agency was to procure the surrender of
all that region known as the uncedod Indian
territory by verbal agreement made by the
Gen. SHEPMAN commission In IS6S RED CLOUD
and his chiefs were guaranteed the occupation
for n long term OF years OF territory extending
from the Big Horn Mountains IN Wyoming east
ward two hundred miles, and northward along
the western line Of Dakota one hundred and
hfty miles. UpoD the first broaching of propo-
sition that they should give up this territory,
the Indians who met in the council exhibited
such violent passion that the matter was sum
marily dropped. In the attempt TO induce the
Sioux to re.inquish the right of hunting on the
Republican river, the commissioners were
equally unsuccessful; and all that they appear to
have really accomplished was to procure the
assent Of the Indians to the removal Of the Red
Cloud Agency from Its present location to the
Grand Sioux Reservation in western Dakota.
The commissioners profess faith In the peace
able intentions of the Sioux, and 80 far as the
majority Of those Indians concerned their
confidence Ia doubtless well placed. But there
are at least one thousand Sioux warriors VINO
are hostile, many of them young men who care
nothing for this authority Of their chiefs. whilo

The Nation has recently put forth nm
extraordinary statement respecting President
GRANTS share IN the revolution which took
place In the management Of the Erie Railway
Company In the spiing Of isT2. This statement
Is as follows:
"The President Of the United states wss entitled TO
these sefcyident facts. the President Of the United
states gave Gen. SioKLrs leave Of absence from his
post ut Madrid TO come homo and engage effort
gam control Of this road Not only dld he xiv. Cen
Issued preposetoW order authorizing an inspection
81 th DoOhs 81 the Erie Hallway an order so absurd
that was nfterwsd revoked by the Secretary Of The
Treasury"
The order OF the President, In which he un-
dertook to give Gen. SiuKLEs authority to take
possession OF the books OF tho Isrie Railway
Company aud inspect them, was based, os we
understand, upon an assumption that the oom-
pNny had not paid the amount of taxes due
from them TO the internal Revenue Depart
ment. Upon this assumption Gen. GRANT
signed this astonishing mandate empowering
the Minister TO Madrid to break open tho safe Of
the company and take possession Of its books.
The President had no moro right TO give such
an order than he had to order Gen. SICliLEs 10
put on the robes of Archbishop MCCLusKBy ana
say mass In ST. Patrick's Cathedral. The one was
just US great a violation Of the law and Of pro-
priety as the other would have been. Aud yet
the President did not fear To give Il his oficai
sanction and signature.
II anything Of this sort had been proven against
ANDREW JOHNSON in the impe achmcnt trial. not
all the ability ana learning Of Mr.. GRorsuYCK,
Judge CuRTIs, and MIR. EvARrs would have
saved the accused President from conviction and
punishment.

The author of this shameful, vllainous
letter, is one of the leaders of the Phadel-
phia Ring; and the presence in that city
of such cor;uimg power naturally con-
iicts with the purposes of great celcbra-
tion OF thf' national anniversary such AS is
desired.
Indeed, seeing that the citizen of Phil
adelphia are not safe in the hands of
these rulers; that their property is taxed
away from them by reckless plundcr-
ers; that justice among them is per-
verted by colrTH ION; that faithful public
officers who caiihot be seduced are assas-
sinated; that elections are carried by
stufling ballot boxes and false counting;
and that courts and juries belong TO the
brigands who fatten upon the plunder OF
the city-it is not surprising that people
from abroad should hesitate about invest
ing their money there, or going there TO
remain for any length Of time themselves.
But excess Of evil works cure, and there
are signs that political salvation Is not i'm
possible even in that unfortunate city.
Let us hope that the people there may
show that they possess virtue and patriot
ism, and that "A thorough reform may he

obstacles in the way of the Centennial

Every year increases the popu-
larity of this valuable Hair Prep
aration, which is due to merit
alone. We can assure our old
patrons that it is kept fully up to
its high standard; and it is the on
ly reliable and perfected prepara-
ton for restoring GRAY OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color, making
it soft, lustrous, and silkeu. The
scalp, by its use, becomes white and
clean. 1t removes all eruptions and
dandruff, and, by its tonic proper
ties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, tho
hair grows thicker and stronger.
In badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HA1R-DREssING ever
used, as it requires fewer applica-
tons, and gives the hair a splendid,
glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,
Md, State Assaycr of Massachu-
sets, says, "The constituents arc
pure, and carefully selected for ex-
cellent quality; and l consider it
