THE Sioux Chiefs have returned to
their wild life and wilder scenes dis
gusted with civilization as illustrated
by the officials and the society at Wash

that lying and land-stealing are only
two of the accomplishments Of 1tadi-

THERE is scarcely an inland town in
the South, where enough able bodied
young men may not be picked up about
saloons and street corners to cultivate
farm of one thousand acres. Yet
the cry is for more and better laborers,
and immigration is urged to supply
this, partly imaginary, want. Those
who loaf about in pretended search for
employment, will accept no position
that is not as soft as their own heads,
and when they have proven themselves
unfit for any useful employment glide
into the paths of vice which finally
lead them to the penitentilry or TO
graves dug by dissipation and conse-
quent exposure. The man who evades
the duty of working for an honest liv
ing, without being as useful, is about
as happy aud as much respected a, the
animal which glories in sunshine and
mud.

TIE stereotyped demand for a third
party. which is being insisted upon rs
soreheads, in several States, is trick
of the secret foes of Democracy but
friends of Radicalism to make diver
sion In favor of the intended successor
of Grant. But, whether this be the
object or not, in all seriousness. what
is to be gained by third party? The
answer will be, Of course, reform OF
the abuses in the government. But by
whom is this reform to be consummat-
ed? A third party, to have respecta-
bic numerical proportions, must draw
largely from both existing parties, and
if both be made up Of material too
ignorant or corrupt TO bring about re-
form of abuses through the agency of
their existing organizations, by what
process will they, in passing from one
party to another, be transformed into
patriot- tesmen? We admit that IT
the best material which the country
affords could be embodied in a COM
pact third party, the government could
be purged Of its corruption and admin
istered upon basis of wise economy
and public virtue. But as this is not
to be done by the magic influence of
change of party name and association,
we see no chance to give effect to the
utopiau, third party idea. except by re-
generating the people themselves
demagogues included, by infusing into
them just appreciation of our insti-
tutious, as well as the intelligence and
integrity without which such institu-
lions can not long exist. Until the
third party architects know where and
how much of such material they can
collect together, it is sheer folly TO at
tempt a solid structure of such rotten
material as that which, they affirm, con-
stitutes the two existing parties. The
scheme will appear yet more absurd
when they reflect that the only mate
rial they can possibly get for their
grand structure must be taken from
one or both of the condemned organ
izations, and if rotten where 1t is, rot
ten it will be wherever placed.

VICE President Wilson says he wants
the country to be retained in the hands
of those who carried it through the
great struggle and led it to liberty.
Does he mean the liberty taken By the
Radicals to erect a monster sectional
despotism, or that liberty which has
cnslaved all the higher interests Of the
country to the tyranny of combined
capital? If he does not mean this sort
of one sided liberty, perhaps he means
that which has conferred upon officials
at the north, and carpet baggers i'll the
South, the sole privilege of rObbing
with impunity, both the Treasury and
individuals. In claiming that the Rad
icals have lei the country to this con-
ditiOn of lawless violence and cOrrup-
tion, which he is pleased to term lib
erty, he tells the truth and no one will
dispute the claim. That he should de-
sire the continuance of this state of
things is polite, for under no other
can he hope for preferment.

WE heartily commend the efforts oil
Secretary Bristow to ferret out and
punish frauds by which the government
has lost millions, and its oacials been
enriched, and give him credit Tor hon
est motives-a virtde rare enough
among Radicals to confer high dlstlnc-
ton upon the exception. If, however,
he hopes by his single manifestation
of honesty again to bring his party
into good repute and to continue it in
poSer, he will, We think, discover that
his effort at reform has been made too
late, and the sins he would atone for,
too damning to be erased from popu,
lar memory, except by the interposi,
ton of Omnipotence.

SpEclAL dispatches from Browns:
vile to the Galveston News, of the
18th inst, give an account of a fight
between Captain M'Neely's company
of Texas troops and band of Mexi-
can raiders, in which twelve of the
latter were killed and number OF
horses and arms captured. Captain
M'Neely lost one man. General Cor
tina, the banditchief, is arming, though
his intentions are not known. Gen.
Fuero, with IA Mexican force OF three
thousand men is said to be on his way
from Monterey to attend to Cortina.
The Mexican authorities are trying to
put Cortina down, not for what he has
done to the Americans. but Tor what
he may do to his own countrymcn. 1t
is thought he will resist arrest by Gen.
Fuero. No one knows what day or
an hour may bring forth, and the
Americans are on the alert for any
demonstration by the raiders.
Later advices contradict the report
of the coming of Gen. Fuero. The
excitement continues high, and serious
trouble is anticipated.

be many new performers Of excellent

music is OF the highest order, and EN-

Up in the beautiful little city of Belle

the girl. But it has. Miss Matte c.

M. Smith. Whether or not the parents
of Miss Matte objected to this particu-
lar member of the Smith family on gen.

theirs. They did object, hence this tale.
Last Sunday night, as the youthful
couple were hanging over omebody
else's gate-William wasn't allowed
around the front door of the Janney
homestead-they each swore "by the
moon, the inconstant moon," that ere
another week rolled over their heads
they would be man and wife. They
meant it, too, for last Monday down they
came to this city, to lose themselves

Janney family circle. The father couldn't
pursue them, so he sent his son after
them to forbid the bans. He came,
secured the city, but found no tidings OF
the pair. At last, discouraged and dis
heartened, he posted of to Cleveland,
hoping TO intercept them there. AS the
happy pair was already married when he
got.here, and was blisslully sojourning at
