SHOWS in the Rocky Mountains may prevent
the transportation Of teas and silks from the
Pacific coast; but, by means of the Signal
Service observations and the telegraph, the
freight can be started eastward one and often
two days in advance of the threatened storm.
The prompt display Of cautionary signals at
the sea and lake ports has saved untold mill
ions of dollars worth of property ..nG
thousands of human lives; and the strongest
argument that need be employed in advo-
cacy Of this great system of weather signals
and of improving the condition Of that most
deserving and intelligent body of public
servants-the observer sergeants7-is that
the saving of one ship and her crew is worth
all the expenditure of the government IN that
service. The delicate machinery of com
merce is, therefore, saved from many clog
and jar by study of the science of meteor
ology.

MuRDERERs on TRIAL. Yesterday was q
notable day in the Court Of Oyer and Termi-
ner, one alleged murderer being placed on
trial and two others arraigned upon indict-
ments found by the Grand Jury. The case
which excited most interest was that of John
Dolan, charged with the murder of James II.
Noe Circumstances seem to point conclu-
sively to Dolan as the guilty party in that
terrible murder, and, if he can be convicted
his punishment will be some assurance that
burglars and murderers cannot escape with
impunity.

The Red Cloud Indian Investigation.


We print this morning a comprehensive
abstract of the report Of the commission ap-
pointed to investigate Professor Marshs
charges of mismanagement and fraud at Red
Cloud Agency, and his imputations of COM
plicity on the part of the Secretary Of the In
terror and the Commissioners Of Indian Affairs.
The Commissioners have devoted the last
three months to the investigation of the al
legged irregularities and frauds, and to the
analyzation of the mass of evidence OBJ
tanned by them from every source of informa-
ton, whether suggested by the Professor or
sought out by themselves in their field OF
operations, and, while they find the most
serious charges to be without any foundation
in the evidence, they have discovered and
exposed some fraudulent operations and
have made many excellent recommendations
for the improvement of the Indian service.
Under all the circumstances shown they
were wise in recommending the removal OF
Agent Saville at Red Cloud. He was evi-
IDENTIFY not adapted to the duties, and, recog.
nizing this fact himself, he has resigned
but Professor Marsh is not sustained in i'm
putting dishonesty to him, and the commits
sion fully exonerate him from the charge OF
collusion with contractors. j. w. l..
Slavens, j. II. Martin and D. J. McCann,
contractors for pork, flour and transportation,
have been convicted of irregular and fraudu.
lent practices and are to be excluded from
future contracts with the government. The
sentence is not severe enough, for the offence
is serious and the finding seems to be justi
fed by the evidence. There are plenty OF
honest men who are willing to do business
with the government on sound and fair busi
ness principles, and the examples which the
commission make of the delinquents will
have salutary influence
The Secretary Of the Interior was found
oddly enough, to have had no Immediate con-
nection with the management of Indian
affairs, and he is acquitted of the Professors
imputations Nor is there any evidence
against the personal or official integrity o
the Commissioner Of Indian Affairs, although
the commission find occasion to censure him
for many errors of judgment. We refer on,
readers to the report, which is able and in.
teresting, and to the list of recommendations
many of which, no doubt, will be carried out
after the meeting of Congress.

Recorder HacIsett and Dictator Kelly.

Recorder Hackett and Dictator Kelly.
Whatever may have been the political
sins Of former leaders in Tammany Hall,
they never increased them by even suggest
iyely interfering with the independence Of
the Court in which have the honor to be
Judge. -REcoRDER HACKETT's REBUKE TO
JOHN KELLY.
In these few lines are comprised Recorder
Hacketts offence against Tammany Hall.
With proper sense Of what was due to the
honor of the judiciary he repelled the attempt
to compel him to put the officers Of his Court
at the disposal of John Kelly, and in so doing
reminded the present dictator that even
Tweed and his associates corrupt as they
were, never went so far as to endeavor to
interfere with the independence Of the Court
of General Sessions He refused to allow
the General Committee of Tammany Hall in
this or that district to dictate to him
who should be the officers of his Court,
and he gave his reasons for such
refusal. These reasons were first, that un-
der any circ umstances it would be improper
to place the criminal records, the service of
prisoners in the hands of political partisans;
and next, that the law very properly placed
the power Of appointing such officers in the
Court and not in the Tammany committees.
But he did more than this. He told John
Kelly>that he was assuming an authority that
even the old Tammany rulers had never been
unscrupulous enough to claim, and it is this
merited rebuke, united with personal en-
nifty, that prompted Kelly to force the Tam
many Convention to refuse to renominate the
Recorder.
The people admire Recorder Hacketts in
dependence and appreciate his endeavor to
keep the courts of justice free from the de-
moralizing influence of partisanship They
will accept the Recorder as the candidate Of
the independent electors much more cheer
fully than they would have accepted him as
the Tammany nominee, and by his reelection
they will not only prove their appreciation
of faithful public service, but will rebuke
the arrogant attempt of John Kelly to make
our judges the mere partisan tools of the
organization over which he at present rules.

The Cotton Mills.
Board.

We print elsewhere to-day third letter on
the condition Of the cotton manufacture.
The facts brought out by our correspondent
in these three letters give promise of a
healthful and prosperous future for this in
dustry as soon as general trade and enter
prise shall revive. For the present, as is in
evitable, the cotton manufacturers are suffer
ing with the rest of the country. Consump-
ton has been severely checked and producers
must wait We seem, consequently, to have
too much Of everything, and at the moment,
no doubt many q one thoughtlessly imagines
our abundance to be curse. But we suspect
it would be true of most Of our other indus
tries, as our correspondent shows it is of the
cotton manufacture, that it has not ID fact
been overdone but that it is not more than
adequate to-day to supply full and active
home demand if such should arise. Unless
our correspondent is mistaken, when prosper
ity returns to the country and it has once more
sound currency it will be found profitable
even to build more cotton mills.
The necessities of the manufacturers and
the lack of sufficient home demand are, it
seems, stimulating them to efforts after for
eign market for some part of their product.
Our export of cotton goods is slowly increas-
ing and promises once more to become con-
siderable. Their present losses should teach
the manufacturers the imprudence of relying
entirely on a home market. If they com
mand also foreign trade they have way of
disposing Of any surplus which may remain
otherwise unstable on their hands, and
which must, while unsold, affect the price Of
the whole product.
Our correspondent seems to have been
struck by the fact that there is no such rela-
ton Of independence on the part Of the mill
owners and subjection on the part of the op-
eratives as was pictured by the recent strikers
at Fall River He shows that the mill owner
suffers such serious loss by stopping his
works that his interest is to continue, even
if he is working at an absolute loss He
cannot afford to scatter the laboring force
which he has trained; he cannot stop with
out deterioration to his machinery, and if he
stops work he has still many expenses. More
over, it seems that there is no such over sup
ply of cotton operatives as would press upon
this industry in even moderately prosperous
times, and that, therefore, wages will
probably regulate themselves usually with
out the intervention Of strikes or lockouts,
and by the operation Of the law Of demand
and supply. If this is true it is an important
fact worthy Of the attention Of trade union
leaders.

THE COLLISION between the yacht Mohawk
and the steamer John Gibson on Saturday is
one Of those accidents which would not oc-
cur in the absence of grave fault on one
side or the other. 1t will be seen from our
reports this morning that each party charges
the fault upon the other The people who
were on board the Mohawk at the time al
lege that the steamer, miscalculating the
speed Of the yacht, attempted to run across
her bow, while Captain Winter, Of the Gibson,
charges that the yacht, when approaching
his vessel, hauled up to the wind and put
her wheel TO starboard, running into the
steamer. Practically these countercharges
mean that the steamer put herself in the way
Of the yacht or that the yacht deliberately
undertook to run down the steamer. Each
side may do the other injustice, but under
the laws of Congress il was clearly the duty
Of the steamer to keep out Of the way Of the
sailing vessel, and if Captain Winter had
strictly obeyed the law it is probable the
mishap would not have occurred.

The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1875-05-06

There is a monomaniac in the Republican
office whose specially appears to be the COM
position of articles in which all /" foreigners -
are spoken of as ''imported" trash, the French
and the Irish being honored with the par
ticular aversion of this fossil relict of the
defunct Know-Nothing party. We have
heretofore disdained to notice the scurrilous
filings Of this "truly loil individual against
the progenitors of more than half the white
inhabitants of Louisiana, the stupidity and
ignorance therein displayed being such as to
divest his illusions of any claims to the atten-
ton of educated men.
But when this retailer of obsolete preiudices
against white men and worshipper of the
s'man and brother" from Africa, impertinently
speaks of "the BULLETIN mans ancestors
about whom he knows absolutely nothing
and inquiries if they were 'Whigs or Tories"
and lived on this or the other side of
the Atlantic, he, perhaps, unconsciously vio-
lates the amenities and decencies of social
life quite as much as the rules of respectable
journalism. If, as we may infer, his own an
cestors were Indians, it would account for his
intense detestation of foreigners" and
might be received as an excuse for his ex-
tremely bad manners.

1t is related that yesterday when the ru-
mors of the death of our esteemed, and we
are pleased to say particularly lively friend,
Major E. A. Burke, Administrator of I'm
provements, were flying about thicker than
Dlackblrds in rice field, a party having bust
ness at the Governors Office, called at the
State House, and was surprised to see quite a
uumber OF negro ward bummers seated with
expectant faces in the ante-room. Somewhat
surprised at seeing SO large a number of
dusky politicians there during the adjourn
ment OF the Legislature, and knowing Of no
political excitement whatever, he yentured to
inquire of specially beaming faced darkev
what the matter was. Saint you hearn the
news?" exclaimed the delighted African
"Major Burke done dead, and Col. Lewis
gwine to be appointed by the Gubbener. and
all we boys 6 vine to hab offices. we are"
The sadness and gloom that must have set
tied upon that party of political bummers
when the Major turned up all right are de-
Gghtful to think of.
En- pdssant, it is rumored tina! several states
were made up during the time the rumor was
believed, which were. however, summarily
smashed when the truth was known. Long
live the Major to Illustrate and put at naught
such schemers and their schemes.

Of a lordly race of men he went into the
Southern war as tried and thorough soldier,
an ardent patriot, lover of political liberty,
an honored citizen and chieftain whom the
young men of Louisiana followed with devoted
attachment. He came from the long contested
war broken in health and fortune, but he
came with clean hands and pure heart, un-
sullied by any cruel act, but glorious with the
honors of many bloody fields of battle.
While the petulant, envious and malicious
phrasemonger of the Chicago Tribune is busy
in his coinage of abusive ISLANDERS, Beaure-
gard remains the admiration and exemplar Of
the Southern people.

THE AGRICULTURAL BUREAU IN
SEARCH OF TANNIN.

Dr.. VIM. McMurtree, Chemist to the Agri
cultural Bureau at Washington, Is now or
q visit to this city. One of his chief objects
is to ascertain what kind of tanning ma
terial can be found in Louisiana. The pro.
curement of sufficient tanning substances has
become problem of national importance
The wholesale destruction of oak and hem
ock, which has gone on in the Northern and
Middle States, has long since compelled the
importation Of large quantities of tannin
prepared from Canada hemlock, and even this
supply is likely soon to be scant, and the old
fields of Virginia and North Carolina are
now drawn on largely for their spontaneous
growth Of sumac. This sumac, prepared by
grinding the leaves and small twigs, sells
readily at from sixty to seventy dollars ton,
and the demand increases.
Louisiana is rich in tanning materials, and
at the request Of DR.. McMurtree, DR.. Copes,
President Of the Academy of Sciences, called
on that body last night for information upon
the subject. Judge Robertson, who investi.
gated the resources of this State for Gov.
Allen during the war, gave list of the fol-
lowing as having been tried and proved:
The bark Of all the oaks, of which there
are many varieties.
The sumac-three varieties abundant.
The wax myrtle, myrica contera, Astounding
near the sea coast.
The three varieties of the wild chamomile,
called bitter chamomile, dog fennel, confen-
mel, or sinking fennel, all species of the
unpleasantly abundant about dwell
ngs, paths and pastures in tannin.
All the magnolia family, and especially the
bay trees, very plentiful in their localities.
And the root of the palmetto-chamorops
which our swamps abound.
