THE BATTLES ON THE YELLOWSTONE

We continue this morning the graphic mar
rative of Gen. Clusters two battles ON the
Yellowstone, from the pen of our special cor
respondent who accompanies the expedition.
Fortunately the loss of life in these two en-
gagements has been slight in proportion to
the number of the combatants and the yigor
of the attack; but we cannot shut our eyes
to the Importance of the affair as an ndica.
ton of the disposition of the red men in a
region which is shortly to be opened to our
pioneers. The savages undoubtedly were
well acquainted with the organization of
Gen. SANKEY'S little army, aud knew
that it was one of the most for
midable expeditions that had marched
into the Indian country for many years
The Modoc campaign, however. had
perhaps taught them that soldiers were not
invincible; at any rate they ventured to hang
about the route, and on the 4th of August
they made bold and well planned attack
upon the advance party of Gen. Custer. This
officer had 80 men with him and was only
few miles ahead of the main body, but it was
only after three or four hours hard fighting
that he succeeded in dispensing the ASSISTANTS
by II gallant charge, just a. Gen. Stanloy's
column came in sight. This was the battle

effect Mr.. Tracy says that the use OF
nublic funds for private purposes by City
Treasurer is not a criminal act If the embez-

remarkable code, are innocent OF any CRIME
because they returned what was stolen. ana

latter for their liberal subscriptions OF money

Eberality is yet unexplained. 1t is noticeable
that the officials of the telegraph company are
unable to furnish any record of the kilograms
which passed between Sir John Macdonald and
the railroad men relative to the pecuniary
aid which the Premier so urgently demanded
and readily obtained. This is case OF sup
preston or abstraction of evidence; or some
body has forged Sir Johns name.
San Francisco dispatches give fuller de-
tails of the late popular victory IN that city !;
but the exact classification of the Legislature
is not vet completed. With a confidence that
does honor to his hOpefulness, however, the
press reporter has lately given us some cal
culations as TO the number Of votes when
Gov. Booth, for United States Senator, Will
have in the Legislature, presumably anu
railroad. AS for San Francisco, that city mas
chosen an independent or aGti-railroad dele
cation to the Legislature, as well as Mayor
and other important municipal officers. Inc
independents, though largely Repubhcans'
worked the machinery of the old time Peoples
Party of San Francisco in opposition TO the
nominations of the regular Republican ana
Democratic parties. Profting by this breaking
up of the Republican ranks, the Democrats
have gained several influential Offices III the
city, but the independents have majority IN
the Board of Supervisors, which body has
heretofore been very much the friend OF the
railroad monopoly. Altogether, the results OF
the election are most encouraging 10 tne
friends of popular reform.

The proposition of Controller Green to con-
solidate the various city and county stocks
has one recommendation which we believe
he does not make. If carried out there is
some probability that it will simplify the alb
surd and mysterious method by which the
public accounts are kept, and make it possible

Nobody expected much enthusiasm at the
Maine. election, yesterday. Nobody will be
disappointed, unless it may be that some of
the oyer-secure Republicans who were unex-
pectedly defeated may murmur at their fate.
last year Perham had majority of 1876 in
q total vote of 12661s. This year Dingley,
the Republican candidate, has probable ma
iority of 1900 in a total vote of $4,000. Cen
eral Apathy led at the polls; but the easy
going Republicans suffered the opposition to
score decided gains in various localities.

There is something extremely saddening in the
sudden extinction of cherished illusion. AS sci
ence Spreads 80 do ancient traditions become as if
they never had been, and the exchange reader Is
made perpetually to mourn at the funerals Of his
boyhood's dearest beliefs One Of these-and very
tough and sturdy one-has just gone to the silent
tomb in Vermont. The power of the human eye
over the wild and ravening wild beast has long been
an engaging subject for School Readers and peda-
gogcal anecdote, and among the firm believers i'll it
was certain Professor of that State Various skep
tics of his acquaintance having dared to doubt this
power, the Professor was tmoved to convince them,
and selected for the object of his experiment fero
cous animal Of the bovine tribe which had long
awed and terrified the neigborhood. Attended by a
retinue Of disbeievers this scientific gentleman
sauntered into the pasture where the animal was
peacefully grazing and fixed his awful eye upon the
same. The next thing which the bystanders OBJ
served was the spectacle of somewhat discOm-
posed philosopher being tossed twenty-seven feet
into the air, and coming down in state of mind on
the safe side of the fence. So pass away the
beautiful dreams Of youth.

"A new and useful phase of pulpit oratory is its
tendency to discuss practically the practical affairs
of every day life From California comes a report
Of a sermon on Christian craftsmanship; from New
Hampshire one Of a sensible discourse on common
schools. The California clergyman begged the cit-
zen to vote intelligently and to forbid the profess
sional politician to do his thinking for him; and
furthermore to vote for candidates known TO be
honest and capable. All of which, we submit, does
him honor, and does not impair the sacredness of
the pulpit from which man should not only be taught
the highest duty but also his duty to the State The

Of the vital powers which the methods Of schools
demand from delicate young children, the needless

Whatever plan Gen. Custer might have had for the
morrow, however, was subject to revision about
o'clock the next morning. Two or three solitary
rifle shots, then doubet then triplet of cracks
and finally whole voey from the other side of the
river was the nature of the reveille that suddenly
startled us from our blankets in the morning. The
Indians! the Indians! they arc firing from the
other side" shouted one of our number. We jumped
up and dressed Immediately. Our men seized their
guns and rushed to the front, aud began to fire in
turn. As yet only few Indians had appeared on
the opposite bank. Gen. Custer ordered our firing
to stop until the Indians should come
down in larger numbers and give us better
target The horses were not moved at first
TO furnish no cause of confidence to the
Indians. Presently. however large number came
down from the hills, and spreading themselves in
the woods on the other side opened heavy fire on
our camp Our horses were Immediately moved
back to the edge of the woods and afterward TO the
bluff beyond rifle range. Only one tardy man, who
had tied his horse to a log and was in no hurry to
move him, lost his horse. He was shot dead. A
bullet struck the tree under which we had been
lying, others whisted by and warned us to move
our breakfast room. The Indians had attacked us

time TO seize one piece of hard tack then rush to

In the mean time Gen. Custer Reynolds,
several officers, the members of our party, and
several of the best marksmen among the men. had
taken positions behind trees and were returning
effectively the Indian fire. The long range-45O to
800 yards-made accurate shooting difficult. and
Gen. Custer did not wish TO waste ammunition by
ordering general fire. While the firing was going
ON in front, Gen. Custer had stationed men on the
hin fs hehind liz commanding view OF the river, 60
guard against the Indians crossing and attacking us
in the rear The firing at the river kept up for
two hours and then fell of. An incessant shooting
was kept up by the Indians, and some of them held
a long-range talk with our scouts while using the
trees for breastwork.

those who mourn, and the trials OF

The Pen n.ylvan,a Constitution.

The new Constitution of Pennsylva-
MIA. upon it's submission to the people
for approval, received mujoIity III its
favor Of 200, 900 votes. The rogues and
"ring" Of that State worked
hard to defeat it; but their arts were Of
little avail. The Constitution springs
from the necessity of checking their
evil practices in stuffing ballot-boxes.
and in innumerable other forms OF cleo
tion abuses. Its positive features are
also considered great improvement on
those of the old, which they replace or
modify. Frequent elections are abo.
lished. The Governor is to be chosen
every four years. Senators are to hold
their places for four years. and members
OF the lower House for three. The
General Assembly meets biennially. A
Supreme Court Judge has twenty-one
years to serve. There may be, and
doubtless are, somo disadvantages in
these changes; but, upon the whole,
they are to be commended, IS likely TO
secure experience and knowledge Ia
public men, general saving of time,
ana diminuiiou Of tho eScitements and
check Of the corruptions which attend
elections. One excellent provision is
the requisition from every voter to
place his name on his ballot. II bribery
and corruption are practiced. they can
thus be traced.
