Death Of Colonel billy Wilson.

Colonel William Wilson, OF the once IA
NOUS Zouaves. died in New York city
on Friday last. aged forty. In other years
he was an active ward politician, of the
Democratic persuasion. and at the break
ing out Of the rebellion gathered together
thousand Of his followers and marched to
tho front as colonel Of the Sixth New York
Volunteers. His men were the "roughs' of
the rough places in New York, many OF
them Eght-fngered. hea eavy-dsted, and even
criminal, and they were terror 70 their
comrades, if not TO the enemy, and it was
only by strict military discipline that they
were converted into good fighting material.
For two years the regiment served about
Pensacola and Fort Plckena, and afterward
came 60 this city and was attached TO one
OF the army corps in the Department of
the Gulf. They re ndered gallant service at
the battle OF Irish Bend. In 1864 Wilson
was made Colone! Of the Sixty-ninth Regi-

WASHINGTON, November lS.-The Com.
missioner Of Agriculture says the demand
for semi.tropical fruits fer experiment in
Southern States is very great. and it is be-
yond the ability of the Department to sup

in demand. and many thousands of young
plants have been distributed during the

The Case Of Satanta.
In regard to the recent dispatch sent by
order OF the President to the Governor Of
Texas, 1t is stated that without forming or
expressing any opinion as to whether or not
Satanta had violated his parole, the Presi-
dent and Secretary Delano, fearing he
might be executed before the evidence
could be fully collected, considered it mere
~ just to delay his execution. 1t 10 today

incumbency the sentence of Satanta was
commuted from death to imprisonment tor

lately been placed in the Texas peniten-

Indias Affairs.
The annual report of the Commissioner
of the Indian Bureau has been prepared,
and is a generally satisfactory statement Of
the condition OF these wards of the nation
during the past year. The commissioner
has little to say regarding the recent war
fare in the southwest, except to express his
commendatiOn Of the policy of Furnishing
the marauding savages in pursuance OF
which General Mills and other expeditions
inflicted sharp chastisement on the Kiowas,
Comanches and ArapahOes, who had been
raiding and slaughtering in Texas and New
Mexico.
The proper mode of treating such Indians
whom he classes as wild and intractable is,
in the commissioners view, to feed $them
while they are peaceable and punish them
promptly and severely when they take to
the war path against the whites. Of the
other divisions OF Indians. classified as more
or less civilized, and comprising the large
majority of the whole number, the com
missioner speaks most encOurag;ngly in
respect to their permanent location on re.
servations, and their disposition to farming
and the pursuits Of peace. He recommends
new legislation by Congress for the purpose
Of extending the jurisdiction of national
and State laws over the Indians, and as far
as possible making them amenable to the
courts Of justice the same as ordinary citi

Outrage Bubbles.

A communication from Rev. James Hay
ward, pastor of Mount Zion Church, of the
Methodist Episcopal denomination, on Jack
son street, calls our attention to an article
which appeared in the Picoyune on the
ninth instant, which states that two broth
ers were torcibly put out of the church and
beaten for the reason that they had voted
the Conserv ative ticket. So far as politics
are concerned the statements are untrue.
The disturbance raised in the church on the
Sunday night in question was made by sew
eral colored men who were strangers to the
officers Of the church. They wers put out
because they were disorderly, and for no
other reason. Disturbance of church meet
ings by the ungodly are not uncommon
and at any ether time it is probable the
event would never have been noticed, save
by the police; certainly it could never have
been tortured into the semblancs OF po'
litical outrage. Nr. Hayward is hard
working preacher. and no politician. and
his words are worthy Of belief.
