the young men you see here want to
say good-b bye, and we also want to
ask about pay for those who came

said something about the men who

not say they had come on our account,
and they had been a sourceo of mischief
ever since they had been here. They
have led you into bad practices, in
sisted on you leaving quarters as
signed you, and now have the impu-

kind services. l told you the agent

Reyeriy johnson on Grants Third
Tern Letter.

NEW YORK., June 4.
The Herald publishes a long letter
from Reverdy Johnson, of Baltimore,
in which the writer gives his opinion
on Grant'sthird term letter. He says:
'NVhat sacrifices the President may
have made in accepting the first orsec-
ond nominations has nothing to do
with his action for the third term, n
whateverabuse he may have been sub
jected to during the time he has held
the presidency is equally irrelevant.
The Constitution does not prohibit and
the people are at liberty to elect Grant
for Il third term; but Grant, nor none
of his predecessors who held office
two terms, ever limited OF accepting
the Office again, nor was 1t ever sus-
gested. The idea of the President,
that the safety OF. tie country may de-
pend upon his reelection to a third
term, he considers an idle CONCLUSION,
having no other support than rs
gorgeous vanity. The question agitat-
ing the public is whether Grant will be
elected TO a third term" Johnson be-
lieves he will not be nominated, and If
so will hardly receive the vote OF one
State. The President seems TO -egard
it as a matter OF dollars and cents, and
johnson infers that If the salary the
President now receives should be Sc
cured to him as a retiring pension, he
would gladly leave the office.

if gold was found in the Black Hills
the Government would pay them lib

them to take all that had been said to

sible. The Indians were photographed

ted Tail said the Great Spirit told him
never t o steal anybody's country with

piled that lie had not accused him or
his people of stealing, and did not
want Spotted Tail to accuse the Great
Father of stealing from him. Spotted
Tail wanted to talk about agency mat
ters before he went home, and wanted
to go home tomorrow. The Secretary
left, saying they might talk all night
with the Commissioners If they so
wished.

its supporters, why are our industries

BrunOt's Plan for Improving the
Navigation Of the Ohio.

NNANAAAANA4AA W NsAN @A~ANN
Wegayc recently, through the favor ol
Capt. JONI McLunE, some account Of the
meeting Of the Ohio river Commissioner
at Washington City, including their rec
ommendation to the Committee Of Com
merce in Congress to report in favor Of an
appropriation to test the value Of the
French system Of locking and daming
rivers by an experiment on the Ohio,
We notice since then that Gen, MORE
HEAD, member Of the Commission from
the State Of Pennsylvania, seems inclined
to favor what is known as the movable
DAM invented by FELIX R, BRUSoT.
We notice also that the Pittsburgh Ga,etle
thinks BRUSoTs plan much more likely
to prove practical and effective than the
French system, so far Us coal boat nayigu-
tion Ia concerned. Some Of the points
made by the Ga,eiie in favor Of It are in
teresting, 1t refers, for instance, 10 the
fact that in times Of a ireshet in the river
the current Is very swift and the whole
available capacity Of the stream is used
for coal aeets, OF the fifty million
bushels Of coal sent down from Pitts
bnrgh annually, nearly all Is aOated
at high water. Coal fleets are large,
and must be made up firmly, and
hence the difficulty, amounting nearly to
an impossibility, Of taking them through
locks Hence, there is need Of dam that
will not be an obstruction at high water,
and which will automatically replace 1t.
self when tho water Is low, The average
width Of coal aoctisl25 feet, The least
width Of chute that can now, in advance
Of experience, be assumed "a necessary is
200 feet. The first question, therefore, Is,
can a gate be constructed that can be made
to close or open this passage at willP
To meet this necessity requires that the
pressure Of the water, whether standing
or flowing, should furnish the power by
which the dam Ia erected or removed.
This is the idea upon which Mr. BRuSors
invention rests. It consists Of movable
gate so arranged that 1t will work nearly
automatically. The gate being down, and
the pass or chute open, It is raised, and
the pass closed, by shutting the down
stream wicket, and opening that which
connects with the upper pool. The gate
being up, tits dropped by shutting the up
stream wicket and opening that which
connects with the lower pool. II the
back waterls above the top Of the cham.
Der, the valve in the gate Is opened, and
the downstream wicket at the same time,
and the gate will sink. The time reqnir.
ed for the rising and dropping the gate Ia
controlled by the size Of the wickets and
ducts; and by placing these as they
should be placed in long gate, at several
points, itmdy be easily made 10 odrop or rise in

no two staple commodities Of extensive
consumption have been as much de

continued to fall in price almost unin-
terruptedly since the panic, until very
recent period, Despite large shipments
abroad 1t has steadiastly declined. The
product was too great for the cOnsump-
tion, great as Is the latter. But lately
things have taken turn. That which
goes up must come down, and no less
true is it that that which goes down
too low must come up, So il has been

Pittsburgh papers quote crude oil at
81 l2l and 81 10 ut the wells, Holders
arc confident Of still higher prices, al
though, as the Commercial remarks, at Is
more than probable that present prices
will bring into the market a largely in
creased supply" Refined oil Is quoted at
about 10 to lOi at Pittsburgh, which Is
an advance Of 9 or more cents per gallon
over the bottom figures lately touched.
The Pittsburgh Ga'ette has advices to the
effect "that producers and operators gen;
orally are very hopeful Of the future"
at Is claimed that the production con-
tinues to fall of, and we presume this Is
correct, as there have been no strikes Of
any consequence reported for q consider
able time, and, furthermore, we are u.s.
sured upon good authority that develop
ment has been almost suspended; our
latest intelligence In regard to the point
in question, reports that there are not
over % new wells being put down in the
whole producing country, against from
260 to 300 ordinarily, and Il Is certain
that the production cannot be kept up II
development IL allowed to run down.
This suspension Of development was not
the result Of any combination among
producers, but was caused by the fact that
oil could not be produced ut the rates
which have been prevailing until recent-
ly, and II ia doubtful, even at the advance
Of 5Oc per barrel which has been estab.
lished within the past two weeks, whether
there Is a margin for profit. There is no
question but what the unusually low
