PRIVILEGED MURDERERs.

Question comes from Washington as
to what shall be done With the sur.
rendered Modocs. The sentimentallsts
are evidently feeling the public pulse,
as to whether it would be possible to
put these wretohes on reservations and
thus save them for leaders in future
massaores. Nothing of this kind will
do. If, under the circumstances, these
murderers cannot be shot by the army,
they must be subject to the laws of the
States where their crimes were commit
ted. Triaing, and shifting, and delay
will not be submitted to. The people
demand that justice be speedily melted
out to these bloody and treacherous dew
lis. Fine distinctions and hair.splittings
are ont Of place. The requirements OF
the case are manifest on its face. The
Modoos must be executed, if not by
shooting then, by hanging.
The St. Paul Pioneer takes an ex.
|ceedingly peculiar view Of this Modoc
question. 1t says:
Gas An Independent people they had q
perfect right Of warfare. Their offences
are military not criminal"
What Of the base betrayal and MUIR
der Of Gen. Candy and Commissioner
Thomas, while engaged in a peace
council ? Was this one of the rights
the Modocs enjoyed as Gan independ.

such stuff put forth as sense by a
paper usually so able as the P;on eer.
W.. fail to see Why Indians are or should
be less amenable to the laws than white
men.

sEsTCH OF CAPTAIN HALL.

t,aptail Hall was first heard OF in Gin
cinnati, where he was once engaged in the
newspaper business, publishing the Occa-
siouai and afterwards the Daily Penny
Press In his earlier years he was a black
smith. working AT the forge, and his 70.
bust dev clopment, beyond question was
IN some measure attributable to the eXer-
ercise of that ardent occupation. He was
in no wise scientific or highly educated
man, but had remarkably practical mind
with great deal OF force of character.
He had never studied the science of navi-
cation even. though he was, through eX-
perience and aptitude, as competent to
navigate % ship or conduct an overland ex-
ploring expedition as any OF the daring
band of discoveries that had endeaV0red
to solve the great Arctic problem. He
sailed northward in 1860 in search of Sir
John Franklin, since which time his name
and fame have been the common property
of the world. His personal appearance is
thus sketched: Captain Hall was about
FIVE feet eight inches in height, with Il
compact, firmly knit frame, indicative of
great vigor and strength, and weighed
probably about one hundred and ninety
pounds He had large head with pro-
fusion Of thick, brown hair and heavy
brown beard inclining to curl. His fore
head was broad and massive, with full
development of the temporal and coronal
regions. His eyes were blue and the whole
expression of the cOuntenance firm, but
very agreeable, kind and pleasant
Capt. Hall was an adept in sledgc trav-
cling. He travelled in his time over ten
thousand miles in sledges, and considered
himself acquainted with all the minutin of
such a manner of locomotion. He intend
ed to essay the irksome task of training
his men to adopt the customs of the native
Esquimaux in their food and dress. He
hoped to bring his followers to an apprc-
citation of the uncooked flesh of the whale,
the walrus and the seal. BY using this
food they were supposed to be able to
stand with impunity the dreadful cold of
the Arctic Circle. The dress Captain Hall
approved was deerskin sack Jumper,
with fur hood, deerskin breeche-, ,ieer and
cider skin stockings, one over the other,
and covered with stout moccasins OF deer
skin and high leggings. With these pre-
cautions it was supposed the men could
defy any degree Of cold.
