How IT WORKS IN lowA.-Nearly
two years ago, after a hard struggle,
capital punishment was abolished in
Iowa. This step the humanitarlans OF
that State felt very confident would
materially diminish the death roll from
murder. Such proves not TO have been
the case. Statistics just published show
that ten cold-blooded murderers have
been convicted since the gallows was
interdicted and Of shoetings, stab
bings. and beatings to death In fits Of
anger the list Is a frightfully long one,
considering the population of Iowa.
Opponents Of the halter for destroyers
of human life are not likely to draw
any persuasive arguments from the ex-
perience Of Iowa. ,.a

kilograms from tho seat Of the
Modoc war, a day or two since, stated
that all was serene; Captain Jack.
Scar-faced Charley, Shack Nasty jim
and the rest OF the rampant warriors
had concluded to bury the s~angulnary
tomahawk, accept Of all the good
things that could be given to them,
and then be taken In comfortable con-
veyances to Angel island, in San Fran
cisco bay. on a sort Of picnic excursion,
entertained s~umptuously at Govern
ment expense. They were to come out
Of their lsva-bed f~astnessss to q nice
lot Of tents arranged for their recep-
ton, with plenty Of choice provlslons,
good clothes, forage aud all that sort
Of thing, preparatory to becoming
angels. All this gratifying programme,
however, seems to be knocked In the
head. According to latest kilograms,
our Modoc brethren arc still disposed
to be in~tractable, Notwithstanding the
kind overtures made to them. Instead
of coming to the rendezvous agreed
upon for the final contamination Of
the peace arrangements, Captain Jack
and his braves went out on a deer
hunt. The Peace Commissioners have
given up the matter in disgust, and
have probably By this time given 1t
over to General Candy, who will here
after try and make bloody war upon
these intractable Indians. 1t Is the
opinion of many that the shrewd Cap
tain Jack has, in these pretended peace
negotiations, been simply maneuver-
ing to gain time SO as to'get away into
a country east Of his camp, where no
cavalry force could follow him, and as
soon as he gets to the Pitt river coun-
try he will find plenty Of cattle and
horses.

A Universal Language.

We consider The prospects Of re-
mott future generation as regards their
Goa, (which We are now using exttava.
gautay, so we ought not to DO termed
fUtopfan II we propose q method BY
which our successors will have but lit
tie trouble In learning languages. A
committee Of the scientific men Of all
nations should DO formed, which should
decide OH q language that shall DO
termed the universal language. This
language may be one at present In ex-
istence, or one based upon an existing
language. !,
ei.etussuppose that German Is found
TO DO the NEST expressive and complete
of existing languages. and one decld-
ed on, ass the universal tongue. We
commence our education, not with a
superficial knowledge OF several, lam
lguages. but with a thorough knowledge
Of German only. All other nations
adopt the same course ; and we know
that wherever civilization has spresd,
wherever missionaries have resided
and taught, we who speak this uniyer-
sal language Will be at once intelligi-
BILE, and able to communicate our
thoughts readily. - 20 .5ICZkH :.
Having but one language to learn
and keep up, we should soon think In
this language, and should thus be able
to express ourselves equally as we'll as
In our native tongue.
People would also feel that they
could not get on out Of their own coun-
try unless they spoke this universal
language, and thus so practical and es-
sentlal all advantage would be gained
by acquiring a knowledge Of 1t, that 1t
would be to each person 8 interest to
study It,. At the present time. many
of us feel indlsposed to occupy several
years In learning several languages,
because we know that our residence In
the countries In which these languages
are spoken Is likely TO be Of short du-
ration I; thus, the return tor our labors
would not be adequate, and we, natu-
rally, decline to waste our time on
such subjects. II, however, we know
that one language would carry US all
over the world and while we, In our
I yOuLu, Ct0-oSuuytuS wv NuhNotooA
language. there were also Russians,
Turks, Egyptians, FRENCH, Dutch,
Spanish, Portuguese. Hindus, Caffres.
Persians, Italians, Norwegians and
Greeks, employed In the same manner;
and thus that we could readily comtnu-
nicate with q native Of each Of those
countries by simply learning ono Ian
guage, SO great a practical advantage
would evidently be gained that every
man would have his heart In his work.
The grow1i-up man who speaks the
universal language would, for business
purposes or for pleasure, find himself
rs much at homo among the men Of
business or science Of every foreign
country. as he would at his own socie-
ty; and thus more satisfactory results
would be obtained by n years labor,
In acquiring one Language, than are
now obtained In many years spent In
learning several. Organization and
unity are alone required, and these, we
believe, are even now obtainable.-

The Helena (Montana) Herald says:
A gentleman recently in thi. city,
from Benton, says that the disease
known as tho epizootlc originated
among the ponies of the Piegan In

In the British possessions) were all
sick with a disease that had every
symptom Of what has been since
termed the epizootic, but at that time
was thought by the white traders
among the Indians to be dlstemper. A
good many animals, for want Of pro.
Der care, died. The disease was alter
