rHE HomE OF rEg mopoas.

The San Francisco Bulletin gives the
following description Of Fort McPher-
son, the future home of the Modocs !:
"The post was established February
20, 1866, and prior to that time the
locality vas known as Cantonment Nc
Kean, and also as Cottonwood Springs.
According to information given by
Brevet Major General William II.
Emory, Colonel Of the Fifth Cavalry,
August, 1869, the commanding officer
at the time, the location is latitude forty
degrees, longitude from Greenwich one
hundred degrees thirty minutes. The
post-office is at Cottonwood Springs,
Nebraska, twelve miles distant, the near
est town or settlement. The quarters
are for five companies, built of logs,
with shingle roofs q part of the build
ings are entirely frame, well chinked
and spacious, with large windows. The
post obtains water from the Platte
River, about six hundred yards distant,
and the wood is supplied by contract.
The land is not arabic, and no timber,
crops or vegetables grow there. Three
miles from the post the grass is good.
The soil is sandy. The Platte River
rises in April and falls in July. and is
forable about seven months in the year.
g The climate is very dry. The esti-
mated average monthly temperature for
twelve months, ending June 80, 1869,
was fifty-one degrees fifty-one minutes.
The sanitary condition of the locality is
exceedingly good. The post commands
the butfola range to the south, ana will
be cavalry station of importance as
long as there are hostile Indians on the
plains. The Modocs will doubtless be-
come disguised with this locality in a
very short time, because of the vigorous
weather in the winter and it is barely
possible that few of them will dscamp
and become outcasts, or affiliate with
rowing savages in more temperate zone.
One reason given by the Modocs for
their clandestine departure from the
Klamath reservation was that they suf-
fered severely from the cold weather of
that region and could not become accus-
toned to it. They will find the chill
ing influences of Nebraska winter far
more uncomfortable than anything of
the kind experienced at klamath. The
report is current in official circles that
the Modocs will eventually be located
in the Indian territory-the land OF
plenty, where thousands of the red men
have created pleasant homes"

History repeats ITSELF" and some
times it is well to look back to past per-
iods Of trial, and to draw therefrom not
only instruction, but inspiration. Six
teen years ago this country was just be-
ginning to emerge from panic that was
more legitimately begotten than the pre-
sent. just about this time in 1857 the
banks resumed, as they now have. With
in three months from the time of re-
sumption stocks rose in value from
twenty-five to forty per cent, and mer-
camille paper was eagerly taken at five
per cent. per annum. In 1856, how
ever, there was general failure of the
crops in the West, so that in 1858 there
followed a reaction. There is no dan.
ger OF such calamity in 1874--for the
crops OF the West and South are enor-
NOUS, and there will be an abundant
and good market for them. Look out
for turning of the tide, recovery of
values and an accumulation OF money
at the financial centres. The upward
movement may be put off few days,
but cannot long be delayed. Newark
