DON'T TRUST THEM.

General Sherman's ideas Of the In
dian character r not exalted. He has
had enough experience OH the frontier
to be tolerably posted, and the follow
ing communications show that he Is
just now considerably disgusted with
their management by the Indian Bu-
rcau. Lieut.. Col. Brooke, commanding
at Camp Supply, addressed an official
letter to the War Department. stating
that the Cheyennes aud kiowas arc of
their reservations. The letter went to
Major-G General Pope and was forward
ed by him to Lieut. General Sheridan,
who endorsed It as follows /: "Rcspect-
fully forwarded for the information Of
the General Of the Army aud the In
dian Bureau" General Sherman re-
ceived the letter, read 1t and forwarded
1t to the Secretary Of War, with the
following endorsement:

The LIBEL. LAW IN PENNSYLVANIA.
Following Is the section or libel
adopted by the Constitutional Conven-
ton OF Pennsylvania last week:
Sxcr1oN Z. That the printing press
shall be free to every person who I'M
dertakes to examine the proceedings
of the Legislature or any branch Of the
government. and no law shall ever be
made to restrain the right thereof.
The free communication of thoughts
and opinions Is one Of the invaluable
rights Of man, and every citizen may
freely speak, write and print on any
subject, being responsible for the
abuse Of that liberty. No conviction
shall be had In any prosecution for the
publication Of papers relating to the
official conduct OF officers or msn In
public capacity, or to any other matter
proper for public investigation or in
formation, where the fact that such
publication was not maliciously or
negligently made shall be established
to the satisfaction Of the jury. And
in all indictments for libel the jury
shall have the right to determine the
law and the facts, under the direction
of the court, as In other cases.
1t will be observed that this gives
public journals full right to criticise
the official acts of all public officers
without subjecting them to conviction
for any discussions upon officers or
acts which are proper for public inyes-
tigation or information, the only facts
required to be proven to the jury being
that such publication was not mali
ciously or negllgently made.

STILL ALIVE.

1t seems that Van Buren,, jays sus-
pended Vienna Commissioner, Is not
entirely squelched yet, despite the fact
that he was tried and convicted Of "in-
competency" before a court In which
the chief prosecutor sat as judge. Van
Buren, has many warm friends among
the New York, New Jersey and New
England Congressman, and the whole
trouble is said to have grown out Of
an old personal contest between him
self and Jay, before the latter obtained
the Mission to Austria. 1t Is now
stated that all the American Commits
sioners who were suspended will make
common cause, and 60 before Congress
next Winter with q resolution de-
handing the publication Of a full his
tory Of the case. They assert that
gross injustice has been done them,
and that they have had no opportunity
to vindicate themselves, and avow
that when the whole correspondence,
etc., is made public, it will show that
their removal was the result of a plot
between Secretary Fish and Minister
Jay, and that there is no evidence Of
the truth Of the charges preferred
against them other than the bare asser-
ton Of Minister Jay. They are evil
IDENTIFY determined that the controver-
sy shall not end with the State Depart
ment, and are plainly opposed to hav-
ing their characters pigeon-holed in
the Secretary of States Office and GOV
cred with Grape. The feeling is but
natural, and the p~erslstency Of these
decapitated individuals evidences Ell
Their a consciousness Of unjust treat
ment and entire absence Of criminal
ity, or an amount Of cheek in exces
Of ordinary measurement. In either
case the investigation car do the
country no harm, whether it shall vim
dictate the action Of Secretary Fish and
Minister Jay or prove the honesty Of
the Commissioners. 1t Is most de-
voutly to be hoped, however, that no
whitewashing will be done on either
side. Let the people do that, II they
choose, after they know the facts.

HbEi. A. u. Stephens on the Viz )
gluius,

Hon Alex Fl stephsns, who arrived
here las, night to take his seat in the For.
ty-'hird Congress, quarters at the Ma
tioual Hotel, where he will remain for tire
session. He bore the fatigue Of the
journey much better than he Anticipa.
ted, and having slept well last night,
received large numbers of visitors to-
day. He is already specializing con
cerning assignment to committee duty,
and expresses preference for the For
eign Affairs Committee, on which he says
he should like to serve at this time
When asked as to his status ON the Cuban
question, Mr.. Stephens replied that he
was where he always had been, that he
rarely had occasion to change his opin
ion, and certainly would not change it in
this case. He was no filibuster, either in
person rim sentiment, still he did not
think the government should interfere
with such expeditions after they had left
our shores. II any of our citizens should
see lit to engage in such enterprises, let
them assume the risks. With regard to
the capture Of the V,rginius aud the exc.
cu'ions of those On board, he expressed
himself very strongly. He holds that the
American flag should have protected all
on board If the vessel had been cap
tured in the act of running the blockade
i. would have been d'ff.rent matter; and
even then the Spanish authorities had NJ
right to put those on board to death, and
for this, as well as the insult to the hag,
they should be held to strict account -
Mr. Stephens, though very feeb e pnysi-
calls and unable to walk without a cane
or cruiches, was as brilliant. intelligent
and as eloquent as in his best days
