REPREsENTATIoN.-The Sussex Journal

that it would be ruirous TO allow representa-

poses the principle aud deuouaces 1t as fraud.

influence, and talks as though Wiimin2tonians
had not as much honesty, Intelligence OF patti
otlsm as other portions of the State, and yet
concludes with the remark mo party can
afford to be unjust and no party can afford to
tamper with so vital question except to ei-
feet such legislation rs wi! satisfy all parties

EDrcArIoN.-Tle Importance of c4Aciilhg
youth of all classes and conditions cannot he
sainsaid, and we therefore expect that the Leg
islature will authorize the taxing oil coloied pee.
pie, as well as whites, for educational purposes
At its coming session. indeed, We are surprised
that such action has been SO long delayed. The
colored people constitute one-sixih Of the pop
ulation of the State, and it is important that
they be educated in such way as to make them
good citizens. The white class, the property
holders particularly, are interested in the mat
ter, and they should understand that ii costs
less to maintain schools than prisons and AIMS
houses, and not interposc obstacles to the en-
actment and carrying into effect Of law that
will provide opportunities Ior the education 'i
all. We might 90 step further AMI make edu'
cation compulsory, imposing pains and penalties
on the parties responsible for the training "l
youth, on neglccting to have all taught to read
and write, and cast mp simple accounts.

ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO THE GAzETTE.]
The Captured MOdOcs.

New York, June 2l.-A. B. Meacham,
Chairman of the Peace Commission, to treat
with the Modocs, aud who narrowly escaped
the fate of his associates, General Candy aud
DR.. Thomas, is in this city on his way to Fort
klamath where the military commission tor
the trial of the captured members of the band
will sit Meacham has no use Of his right
hand, the nerves of which were parayzed by
ball through the wrist. The fore finger OF his
left baud is twice the natural size. There still
remains slight scar on his forehead from
ball and from the same cause lump is on the
right side of his head Other Wounds recelv-
ed on the ear, 10 the side and elsewhere have
entirely healed. His story Of the treachry
which resulted 10 the death of Canby and
Thomas is but retcratioD of that already
told. Meacham says that himself and the 9th
ers had full information of the fate IN store tor
them, but as Candy and Thomas would not
accept the warning he could not remain behind
while they went into danger. 1t was Captain
Jack who gave the signal for the slaughter and
shot General Candy, while Old Schonclun at
tended to himself with pistol and kDlie. La
the issue of the forthcoming trial ne expresses
no doubt but the Modoes who participated IN
the assassination will be convicted and eAecu-
ted. The effect of u virtual acquttal or pardon
after conviction would be disastrous; with such
result before their eyes turbulance OF other
tribes could not be constrained The white
men who murdered the Modoc prisoners should
be hanged, Meacham thiuks,on the same gal
lows with the Indian uurderers. During the
war the Modocs killed and wounded about
three soldiers for every warrior 10 their force
at one time numbering not more than thirty
five, and that during the first three days fight,
they not only held out against eight hundred
troops armed with every appliance of modern
warfare, but kept passage open for retreat,
which even the Warm Spring Indian scouts
could not close. Meacham advises that those
not guilty of participation 10 the massacre be
remanded to their reservation. To distribute
them among other tribes would be punish
ment to somc only His idea of the best
policy for the future is that all tribal lines be
abolished, and that the Indians be made ans
werable to the laws and be placed on the same
footing with other murderersi 10 the community.

LIMITATION OYSTERS. THE oyster Of Fir'
GINA will be likely to suffer if there is any truth
in the report which reaches US that a man IN
Maine has discovered a compound that is
equal to our delicious bivalve. It seems that
his patent oyster is made out of -four, tapioca,
salt and water. The inventor puts these 10
second baud oyster shells, which are carefully
glued around the edges. We should like to
see one of his real limitations of the York River
or Lynuhaven Bay oysters. What next?-
