TUE ADVANTAGES OF A WINTER CAMPAIGN
against the indians have been fully proven
by Clusters celebrated Wichita campaign,
and Crooks experience in Arizona. The
Indians always live in camps in winter and
subsist upon the result Of their summers
hunting, in the shape Of 0ffalo meat and
vcnison, with an occasional dog stew % a
luxury. The capture of their stores would
compel their surrender or would starve
them to death. There are other adyan
tages, too, in this manner of fighting. An
Indian will not fight when his squaws and
pappooses are in danger. When tribe ID
on the wsr.path the Indian women and
children are generally sent into some place
ito remain until the return of the warriors.
Being surprised in the winter, there would
|be no place for them to hide were there
time to hide them.
This probable campaign will no doubt
be conducted by General Crook. although

him strong claim to the command. The

Last Friday, . week ago, the Western
Union wires leading from Washington 10
Cincinnati and St. Louis were taken pos.
session OF by the manager Of the company,
and used exclusively for some hours In the
transmission Of voluminous dispatches
from the President to parties in the two
cities named. The name of the Cincinnati
party is net known. but it is aseertained
that the St. Louis dispatch was address sed
to Gen W. +. Sherman. The circum
stance has been pazzling one, and a.
though the facts given, while it WAS en-
Ideayored to keep them concealed, have
|been Known for day or two, eli efforts
to ascertain what emergency could have
arisen to warrant such extraordinary pro
ceed,ngs have met with no success. The
best inforraation at hand indicates tina,
this correspo. dence had reference to osI
affairs with Spain. and this presumption
lie stren2 thened By the circumstance that
on the same day the President commnn,-
Icated at great length through Secretary
Fish with Minister Schench ct London,
|by means Of the cable. On the same day,
lit will be remembered, the cabinet at Mad
rid held session to consider the American
mote with reference to the Observance OF
the treaty Of l7aA. While the contents OF
the American note was not known. it is
Judged, from the fact that j: has been
frequently noted by the authorities OF our
Government that Spain has never fulfilled
her obligations under the treaty, and that
the note in question made complaint to
that effect, the treaty of 1906 is little more
than 0ne of friendship, and the complaint
that Spain has failed u reciprocate the
kind and friendly Offices that nave always
been manifested by the United States has
been standing one for many years.
Unless, however, . war with SPAN 10 an

FRAILTY AND F4L1LBIL1TY

The road TO ruin is paved with good
intentions, Ii is strewn with broken
resolutions, and all along its crooked
and winding ways are scattered the
wrecks of what might have been the
noblest specimens of manhood and
womanhood.
Frailty and fallibility are common
to human nature. "There are passions
strong and ambitious Wild" that leads
liie's wayiarers, step by step, down the
long grade, until demoralized and
weakened, both in body and in mind,
they fall by the way, and in their dis
tress and helplessncss they find none
TO comfort them.
God knows we all need mending, for
it is as impossible for men or women
TO attain absolute human perfection as
It is for them TO touch with their hap
less hands the stars that CLEAN in the
broad arch of the universe. Our lives
20 on and fail we arc tempted and
we fall,
And yet with all our failings and
weaknesses, we may be useful, good
and true, if we are only resolute, firm
and brave. There is hope and promise,
and possible bright future Tor even
those who have joumeyed far on the
fateful road. There are hands to lift
them to their feet again if they but
strive and struggle to regain their lost
manhood and womanhood. Even for
the most world-wcary heart
There is hope that never fades nor dies
The hope OF Heaven, how marvelously grand
Tho all liie's howling tempests that arise,
Sweep DER the Rock Of Ages where we stand
We glance down the pathway we have trod
And leave our mperfeetons all with God

SELERELIANCE.

There is nothing more likely 10 re
suit in the successful career OF young
man than confident selfreliance. 1t il
astonishing how much more youth
will accomplish who relies upon him.
self, than one who depends upon others
for assistance. Having first ascer-
tained the direction in, and the means
by, which his object is to be reached,
let him put his whole energies to work,
and, with unflagging industry, press
forward. The young man who, in
stead of rising at five, sleeps till seven
or eight, and who spends his evenings
on the corners, or in the com panion-
ship of those who are wanting in lauda-
BILE ambition, rarely ever wins posi-
ton of honor, or achieves reputation
above that enjoyed by the common
masses.
In a country like ours, where the
avenues to honor and wealth are open,
alike, to all, there is no reasonable ex-
cuse that can be offered for man s
failure to achieve one or the other or
both. lll-health, or extraordinary mis-.
fortune, may keep him down, but these
are the exceptions that establish the

THE NEW BELL AND CLOCK
FOR INDEPEN DENCE HALL.

City Councils having accepted tn,
offer of Mr.. Henry Seybert, of thii
city, to place a bell and clock in th,
tower OF Independence Hall, to com
momorate the first Centennial anniver
sary of the National Independence
Mcssrs. Menecly & Kimberly, OF Troy
n. Y, are now engaged in collecting
suitable material to be used in casting
the bell, and the American Clock
Company, of New York, are construct.
ing the clock.
The bell will weigh $4,000 pounds,
or 1000 pounds more than the bell Of
ST. Paul Cathedral, London. On the
crown of the bell will be the inscription.
"Glory be to God in the highest, and
on earth peace, good win toward
men" and at the mouth, proclaim
liberty throughout the land and to all
the inhabitants thereof On the face
will be the Coat of Arms of the United
States, and the motto, "E Pluribus
Unum," with the figures "1776-1ST6."
"Meneely & Kimberly, of this city,
who are making a bell of 10000
pounds for the tower of independence
Hall in Philadelphia, have, upon ap-
plication to General Haynes, and upon
endorsement Of the War Department,
received permission to select several
cannon from those now in store at the
Watervliet Arsenal to be cast in the
bell. The selection will be of cannon
which did service in the Union and
rebel armies during the late civil war.
1t is the purpose Of the donor of the
bell { Henry Seybert, of Philadelphia.
and Of the authorities of that city, to
have the bell in position in Indepen-
dence Hall tower July 4th, 1876. 1t
will thus have both u national and
Centennial signifcance-that OF a
country grown in n century from a
Union of thirteen States to thirty
eight, and population increased from
1000, 900 to 40,000,0OO. The object of
the special cannon in the casting of
this bell will be to carry out the idea
of peace in the blending OF North and
South, and quite in keeping with the
spirit in one of the Bible Inscriptions
which will be cast upon the bell
Glory be to God in the highest, and
on earth peace, good will toward men, y
