Mercy.

The San Diego World suggests to
Governor Pacheco the exercise of his
executive clemency in the case of Fe-
lisario Alipas, the Indian boy, aged II
years, who has been condemned to be
hung on the I'd day of July for the
murder of Rogerson. He is ignorant,
not specially vicious, and it is supposed
that Cueyar, his associate, really plan
ned the job. The latter is feigning in
sanity with the skill of Five Points
murderer, while his poor, ignorant,
Indian accomplice is likely to suffer
the extreme penalty of the law. 1t
may be only the life of a poor, debased
Indian boy, but Governor Pacheco
will be generally endorsed in the ex-
tension of q Communication to this GRIM
inal, more especially as the shrewder
murderer has played the insanity dodge
80 successfully as to save his neck. In
the excitement of politics we trust the
Governor will not forget that the rope
is ready for the official strangling OF
this Indian boy on the I'd proximo.

The American Peace Society.

We have received circular from
the American Peace Society, which
furnishes number of interesting
sketches, from peace standpoint, to
show that peace is preferable to war.
This proposition, in the abstract, needs
no argument; but the. extreme to
which the Peace Society carries the
doctrine, might stop the wheels Of
progress and sacrifice the liberties of
millions. Their endorsement Of the
present Indian policy seems to us to
be great mistake. 1t is idle to dis
cuss the causes that have produced the
present debasement of the Indians of
the Plains. 1t has been the work of
many years and the hand of the thiev-
ing Indian Department of the Govern
ment is apparent in their present de-
moralization. The Indian of the
Plains is as humane as the rattlesnake,
and as amenable to law and order as
the coyote, and the attempt of the
Peace Society to resolute him into a
worthy member of Society, is mel
ancholy farce. The murder of hun
dreds of the pioneers of the frontiers of
Texas, Kansas and Nebraska, is di-
rectly charg cable to this Indian policy,
which has placed the management Of
affairs in the hands of such mercantile
traders as WIN. E. DODGE of New
York, and the immediate control of
tribes under men like Superintendent
HoAG, whose capabilities should have
continued him in the butter and egg
business in the Philadelphia markets.
The present peace policy in Indian
affairs kills white men, outrages white
women and brains white children, and
with such results, at such an expense
of blood and treasure, none but
maudlin sentimentalists can en-
dorse 1t.

Freemas0nry.

The cosmopolitan character of Free
masonry is shown by its universally,
including in its Lodges members of all
creeds, citizens of all nations and men
of all ranks. The Prince of Wales is
now Grand Master of the English Free
masons, and the humblest Freemason
in the realm meets with his future
sovereign on level in the lodge room.
The Lodges most peculiarly consti-
tuted, however, are in the Holy Land,
where nationality vies with national
ity, and sect with sect, in an affort to
extend the realms of Freemasonry. In
the First Masonic Lodge of jerusalem,
it is said, the Master is an American,
the Past Master an Englishman, the
Senior Warden German, the Juuior
Warden a native, the Treasurer Turk,
the Secretary Frenchman, the Senior
Deacon Persian and the Junior Dea-
con Turk. There are Christians,
Mohammedans and Jews in the Lodge.

LETTER FROM ORANGE.
The Orange Good Templars' Festival
A Good Time wish Pleasant People.

EDITOR HERALDI On last Friday
night I had the pleasure of attending
the Good Tempars' Festival given by
the Orange Lodge, and held at the
Hygean Home kept by Maj. w. T
Larkin and his estimable lady-and,
by the way, good place stop at. The
occasion was one Of the most enjoya-
BILE that has been my good fortune to
participate in for long time. Many
regrets were expressed at the failure
of the excursion from this place by the
members of Merrill Lodge, as they
had anticipated, as the good folks of
Orange had made ample arrangements
to give US hearty welcome and a
good entertainment and our lodge Ger.
trainly missed great treat by not
being there.
The Orange people are whole-sOuled,
hospitable and generous, as we'll as
alive to the best interests of their
town and community, and hence the
salOon-man, with his pernicious traffic
and influence Is denied place among
them, which fact evidently shows
their good sense and wisdom. A finer
country and better crop prospects are
nowhere to be found In this county
than Orange.
Financially, the festival was sue
cess, and the abundance of good
things to supply the inner man spoke
volumes in praise of the liberality and
good taste of the Orange fair ladies.
May their hearts never know sorrow
and their shadows never grow less.
Yours, ETC., ID. A. WILLIAMS.

smile with orange groves and luxuri-

the magnificent bay, offering safe
harbor for vessels in any storm, will
In due time dwindle down to its natu-
raj proportions of tolerably safe road
stead in quiet weather; the "swift
and elegant steamers will, without
our assistance, chase each other over
Sum mer seas into fairy land whence
they came; the railroad will probably
fulfil the mission for which it was de-
signed and carry supplies to the min
ing districts, and the bullion and pro-
duce of the country through which it
passes, to the coast; and unless the
projectors of our Napoleon are pre-
pared to construct wall something
after the style of the great one of
China or furnish the "actual settler"
with aliberal supply of log-chains with
which to anchor out his orange Or
chards. they will inevitably be waited
away by the gentle Summer zephyrs
and recede in the dim distance until
they find their natural abiding place
i'm the warm. fertile valley of Los An.
geles and the more protected regions
inland. And our Napoleon with its
one hundred thousand Inhabitants and
all its gilded incidents will subside
into the place to which it belongs and
which it must forever Occupy-that of
one of the seapOrts of The City of the
Southern Countrywide future capital
of a future State. And the terrific
storm, which to-day threatens to over
whelm us, we shall in few months
discover to have been nothing more
serious than tempest in teapot.

Moody and San key.

LONDON, June 23d. The revival
meeting, as originally proposed, was
not held at Eton, because the local
authorities would not furnish the po-
lice force which was considered neces-
sary to keep the peace. In addition
to this, the Opp0sers of the scheme per-
suaded the Mayor of Windsor to with
draw the permission for the use of the
Town Hall, by Moody and Sankey, but
a meeting was finally held yesterday
in private garden, at which 1000
students at Eton, five Masters and 300
citizens were present. The Earl of
Cavan, Lord Wiothesby and Earl
Russell accompanied Moody and
Sankey to Eton. During the service,
Moody announced that he had just
received telegram stating that the
Governor of Eton sustained the head
man and removed all obstacles to the
proposed meeting, but he Moody had
no intention of holding further service
in the neighborhood.

The New Napoleon.
dorse it.

We are all familiar with the vast en-
terprises conceived by the brilliant
intellect of Colonel Mulberry Sellers,
who possessed so lofty an order of gen.
ius that it grasped at nothing short of
millions. We know, too, that the
grandest scheme projected by him was
the proposed building of the city of
Napoleon, laid out on a new and i'm
proved plan, all corner lots, the price
of which was destined to run up into
the thousands. The muddy creek was
to be deepened and dignitied with the
title of river. 1t seemed likely to
prove national blessing and an ever
lasting monument to the honor and
glory of Its protector, SO promising did
1t look--on paper; but it expired al
most at its inception. Yes, the city of
Napoleon is dead; but like history is
destined to repeat itself, and the Col
onel is still alive and at his old tricks.
Our new enterprise cannot boast of
some Of the advantages of the Old, but
then it far excels it in other respects
with it's perennial streams, from living
springs, flowing through the streets,
and It's crowning glory, its bay-and
such bay. We have carefully ex-
amined the glowing prospectus 10y
which it is introduced to the public,
and are compelled to admire the genius
and unbounded imagination displayed
in its production. Still, we think
there is room for improvement in the
map. For instance, why not reserve
block beneath the "Y. L. Seminary"
block and nearer the ocean, to be
known as the Yacht Club block, and
another, occupying a similar position
below the University block, to be
styled the Jockey Club block? In
addition, there should be plaza,

The Beeeher Case Committed 20 the
Jury.

New YORK, June 24th.- In the
Tilton-Beecher case the Judge charged
the jury to-day. The charge is con-
sidered favorable to the defendant, but
both sides express themselves satis-
fed. The Judge denied the motion to
reopen the case. At 10 o'clock moth
ing had been heard from the jury.
Judge Nelson adjourned the court till
10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Mrs.
Tilton will publish an affidavit to-
morrow denying In toto all charges of
criminal intimacy with Beecher, and
stating that no one was employed in
laying carpets in the house at the
time mentioned by Lees, Louder and
Price, and to her knowledge they were
never in her house.
