"The Beecher-Til!on investigating com.
mittee have finally succeeded in suppressing
the leakage OF so many false and garbled
statements of what has occurred at their
meetings as at one time threatened to in
yoIre them in serious Observation-Disclosures.
The sittings Of the committee ought to be
absolutely private, or they ought to be open

WISCONSIN, AND THE RAIL WAYS.
The State Of Wisconsin is about to enforce
the law recently passed BY the Legislature reg
ulating the freight charges of the railways.
The latter intend to contest the constitutional
ity of the law, and the matter will doubtless
be speedily brought before the Supreme Court
Of the United States. That IL will be decided
in favor of the railways is generally expected,
but such q decision will only be the beginning
of the struggle between the railway monopo-
lists and the States. Il will create feeling
scarcely less intent than that created by the
Dred Scott decision. The decision will be be-
lieved to be due to the presence Of judges on the
bench, who were formerly in the employ Of the
railway companies. As the Dred Scott deci-
sion led to the formation of the Republican
party, so decision against the constitutional
ity OF the Wisconsin law will give birth to the
anti-railway monopoly party. Public opinion
will either rally to the support Of some of the
schemes Of water communication reported upon
by the Congressional committee, or win de-
mand the construction by the Government of
freight railway from the Atlantic to the Missis-
appi. The effort to enforce the law in wiscon-
sin brings the dispute between the railways and
the people to q definite issue, and henceforth
the railway question will take It's place as the
great political question of the country.

C0MAYCRE CHARACTERISTICS.

COMANChE ChdHAI1 bh4oL LSO'
(Letter In The Natlou.l
While walking around with others, looking
at the fantastic dress and equipment Of the
Indians sitting on their horses, who constituted
the greater part of the audience, we noticed q
Young woman that had cradle, apparently
empty, hanging from the horn of her saddle.
One of the party lifted the flap Of calico that
ordinarily shields the head Of child In the
cradle from the sun, and then, to our surprise,
we saw that in the cradle was Q rosy-cheeked,
haxen-haired American doll. One Of the party
was so inconsiderate as to ask her, through an
interpreter, why she carried with her the cradle
and doll. The poor creature replied in q sweet
toned voice, and in an sbsshsd and mortified
manner, that It was her misfortune to be q
childless wife, and that she carried the cradle
and doll because she believed they would aid
her in becoming mother. learned from one
of the interpreters that the small Comsnche
made dolls, fabricated Of buckskin, beads and
silver, 90 as to resemble Comanche warrior
one of which gave the Smithsonian 1nstitu
ton in 1862 or 1863, are given BY young wive'
to their husbands, and are worn on their breasts
by their husbands with the same object thai
led the young woman to carry the cradle anc
doll.
By-the-by, the best interpreter here, Mr.
Jones, Of Fayette county, Texas, tells me that
the Indians known as Comanches say that that
name was applied to them BY the spaniards
and others, and is foreign to their language,
which is the correct language Of the plains
They call themselves ns-um-the having tht
sound it bears in-the French alphabet, which
he says signifies "our people" He also tells
me that the language of this nation is con
tinually changing. For example, when
woman who was known as "Tall woman
the word "wyepe" then meaning woman
died, they at once dropped the use of the word
"wyepe," and invented and substituted the
word "tootche" to signify woman in its place
So with other words. They told him that they
did SO in order that the use Of word shoult
not prolong their grief for the person who's
name it constituted-that they had sorroW
enough for the dead not to be reminded o
them by their names. For this reason thel
bury their dead secretly in some obscure gully
and at once obliterate all traces Of their graves
The burial, like most of their work, is per
formed by women.
