a little sketch of the origin Of the Indian Com

short account of tho manner in which the first
effort Of the Commission to secure an honest
fulfllment Of contracts was defeated by the
Ring. He also relates how Secretary Delano
and others prosecuted those who opposed the

Commission, who is still the object of persist

practical familiarity with the doings OF the

tons to the general fund of information on

4 deadly personal feud in Texas has just been
abated by the death of ono Of the parties. These
were two doctors, Nalcttc and Manning practicing
IN the neiglborhood of Scrbin. There profess
sonal jealousics between them, and they hated each
other ~ only professional rivals can. Some months
ago they met and. agreeing TO have it out, went to
Il shop selected each butcher-knife and seeking
all open place began a deadly duel. They we've sep
arated before either was MORALLY wounded, each
vowing future vengeance They recovered slowly
from their wounds Mannng's head ha been almost
severed from his body, and during his recovery he
became feaifuy deformcd, his head being drawn
by the cutting of the muscles out IF its natural posi-
ton. He retired to Bell County while convaescIng,
still Nursing his wrath against Nallctte, who, upon his
part, was more forgiying. No sooner was Man
ming domiciled in his old home than his enemy
sought him with gun. Manning. however was
ready for him, and shot him dead as as he made
Lis appearance. No Corsican vendettaS were ever
more implacable than of these quarrels i'll the
Southwest. They indicate phase of character
with which. in our part of the country, I'M
acquainted-a savage, animal brutality of which We
have in New-York very rare examples. although
they are not entirely unknown. Even in Texas this
form Of human depravity is gradually disappearing,
in spite of climate, tradition and hard-drinking.
Excellent influences are at work in that State, and
in time these brutalities must disappear.

STPPLEUENTiRY TESTIMONY on THE
INDIAN SERUI(F.

SEPPLEUENTiRY TESTIMONY on THE
indian SERTICK.
The improper use Of the indefinite article re-
ceiyes more fOrciblc illustration day by day.
The gentleman whom the Secretary of the In
terror described as 81 Mr. Marsh" has now re-
cei,ed the official Endorsement of the late
Chairman OF the Indian Commission, and II
general series of letters in his support is yet
threatened from the same official source. 1t
may be that by this time Secretary Delan0 has
discovered his mistake. 1t is reasonably GER
tain. at any rate that Prof. Marsh is now so
well known in the Interior Department that he
would not again be described "a Mr.
"Marsh" in an official document.
1t has been notorious in and about the De-
partment at Washington, and i'll the neigh
borhOod of the Indian agencies, that cheating
and swndling in connection with Indian sup
plies had been carried on to gigantic extent.
Charges of this kind were often made but
were either dismissed by the Department with
out investigation or inquired into only in the
most superficial manner, and the results
pigeon-holcd in the Department. The stories
"pIt in circulation by Mr.. Marsh could
moi be so disposed of. Whatever comes of the
present investi cation enough has been brought
out already To indicate enormous frauds in all
branches Of the Indian service, and to give
the next Congress the clcws by which TO
follow up and uncover the whole system. Mr.
William Welsh Of Philadelphia, who was the
first Chairman of The Indian Commission APP
pointed by President Grant as "a measure OF
reform, and whose interest i'll the promotion of
the welfare of the Indians is well known, writes
to Prof Marsh thanking him personally for the
great service he has done the Indians in stir
ring up the press and people to the Importance
of the subject; and suggesting that that work
be supplemented by the testimony of
credible witnesses who have knowledge
of existing wrongs and frauds. Mr.. Welsh
himself has knowledge of many facts in the
history of the Indian service since the appoint
ment of the first Indian Commission, which he
proposes to contribute to the public knowledge
of the subject. 1t will be remembered that
most of the gentlemen originally composing
the Commission, being unable TO act in har
mony with Secretary Dclano. were driven to
resign, and their places We're filled with
persons who did not oppose the Secretary's
plans.
Mr.. Welsh gives in his letter TO Prof. Marsh

The text of the call for "a Convention at
Saratoga, Just issued by the Republican State
Committee, recalls a political extract published
iu yesterdays TRIBUNE, and suggests some
curious "reminiscences. The extract ran: A
"curious feature of the New York canvass is the
"interest taken in the Greeley Republicans For
"poitical pariahs, they are coming on re-
"markdbly well. Both sides are showcring
" them with polite attentions. We sus-
"pect the upshot of it al will be that the
"' leaders will sell out the Liberal vote to
"the Republicans, and will be unable to de
oliver the goods" A year ago these political
paIiahs were not in such demand The Rcpub-
lican party of this State mismaDaged by its self
appointed Administration leaders, considered
itself too strong rather than too weak. It's
chief business seemed to be not to gather re-
cruits, but to punish insubOrdnatiOn. Who
ever had sought reform outside the party was
to be cut off from the assembly of the faithful.
There was indeed 10 law by which he could
be forbidden TO vote the Republican ticket I;
but lie could, at any rate DO told that bi,
room was better than his company, the
door to caucus and convention could
be shut in his face, and he could
be made generally to understand that he was
"a disagrceable person whom nobody wanted
around The Republican Committee ig
