THE OFFENSIVE REMARKS.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat says
The following extract from Mr.. Hendcr-
sons speech in the Avery trial, contains
tile reflections upon the president" to
which reference is madcin the dispatches
of the Attorney General:
s'This. is the blot upon our government,
that it is possible for such things to exist.
They could not exist in England, France,
or any other civilized government, but
are peculiar to our boastcd republic. 1t
is party, party, party that damns our
country, and he who has the nerve to re-
sist the bchests of party, is worthy Of more
credit than the bravcst of<old Roman sol
ders. Under the name Of party, every
fraud and infamy within the range Of
possibilities, arc. pcrpetrated. It's to be
hoped and prayed that the time is COM
ing when man who has the impcrious
force Of character to resist the dictates Of
party will be looked up toas hero
But we may goto the bottom-corrup-
tion may feast in all our institutions, and
our nation may decay and fall before we
learn this grand truth. ! respect party,

The Black nm. Commission.

The instructions Issued by Secre-
tary Delano to the Commissioners
appointed for the purpose of treating
with the Sioux indians, are as fol-
lows:
LIST. AS the territory In Nebraska,
north Of the North Platte River, be-
longs to uneeded Indian territory,
which includes the hunting ground
In the northwestern part of the State,
bounded on the south by the Mo
bmra River, the Commissioners will
endeavor to negotiate for the relin-
quishment of all the unceded terri
tory OF Nebraska, as well as the right
TO hunt on the Smoky Hill Fork OF
the Republican River in Kansas.
This, II accomplished, will give to
the United States lawful aud undis-
puted possession OF all the territory
In Nebraska and Kansas.
End. This concession made, would
leave the permanent reservation, as
at present defined, in Dakota, about
which there is no dispute, but that
part of the reservation in Wyoming,
east of the summit of the Big Horn
Mountains, is regarded by the Gov
eminent as unceded territory, the
same as in Nebraska. The Indians,
however, claim that the treaty of
1868 secures the territory to them the
same rs in Dakota, the latter being
the permanent and the former the
hunting ground, so long as buffalo
are found within the boundaries,
which boundaries include the famous
Black Hills. The Commissioners,
therefore, are instructed TO secure the
right of way to the government to
construct a road which shall be kept
open and free from reservation limit
alton, beginning at the southeastern
point of Wyoming Territory, and
running in a northwesterly direction
to Tongue River, in Montana, II
branch of the Yellowstone River,
this road to be kept fifty Iniles east of
Fort Fetterman, fifty miles east of
Fort Reno, and fifty miles east of
Fort Kearney.
3rd. To obtain a REIMBURSEMENT of
all the territory west Of the summit
Of the Big Horn Mountains included
in the reservation in Wyoming and
4th. To negotiate for the purchase
of 10 much of the Black Hills as may
be found to contain gold.
VALUABLE MINERAL LANDS.
The importance of those instruc-
tions does not appear as thus indi-
Gated by the Secretary of the Interior.
The President is convinced that there
are valuable mineral lands in the
Sioux reservation. They are in
Wyoming on the eastern slope of the
Big Horn Mountain, the summit of
which is the dividing line of that
reservation in the Territory of Wyo-
ming; and as the question of ceding
or relinquishing a portion of the re-
servation is of the greatest import
INC to the peace of the frontier, il
has been deemed advisable to make
the task thorough at once, and not
await further developments. 1t will
also be seen that only so much of the
Black Hills as may be found valu-
able for mining purposes will be pur-
chased. The right of way through
Wyoming to the northern boundary,
and the cession of all the lands and
rights in Nebraska and Kansas, are
regarded as of secondary importance
to the sale, for a consideration, of the
mining lands in Wyoming.

A Fe male TrapeZe Perform
err ON the War Path.

Mile. Lola, the irapeze perform
err, whose name was prominently
placed before the public recently
in connection with a walking
match against VIM. e. Harding,
at the Hippodrome, offers to bet
from $500 te $1,000 that she can
perform any feat on the trapeze
ever accomplied by any other per-
former, and that she can whip
the boots clean off an V other
woman on the trapeze to-day 1t
o said Mile Lola 10 anxious to get
on match with Leon Dare, anoth-
err weli-known trapeze performer,
who for several weeks past has
thrilled the habitues of the Oylm-
pic therater with her daring teats
in mid-air. Should Miss Dare ac-
cept this offer of Mile. Lola the
contest will certainly be a unique
affair, but it is doubtful whether
the authorities would allow it to
take place. Several years ago
Mile. Lola entered into contest
with rival male trapeze perform
er at New Brunswick, Dominion
of Canada, and, although she frac-
tured her jaw, succeeded in accom-
plishing a daring feat and winning
the wager.-N Y. Star, 18TH.

Death of II Knife Eater.

The case is mentioned of an
American sailor who died in Guys
Hospital London, a mostmortem
examination Of whose body show
ed that his disease was due TO his
repeated exploits of swallowing
knives, from the effects of which
he had been sick for three years.
The first time he swallowed Ia
knives, he became sick but recov-
cred, and commenced again, bet
ting from time to time on. his bra
vado exploits, while on an English
ship he swallowed II knives in two
successive days; but this appears to
have been too much, and after long
suffering he died. Fourteen of the
knives were found in his stomsch,
but, strange to say, partly digested
the iron parts as we'll as the horn
handles. The stomach itself was
not at all injured. He had a good
appetite to the last, and his sick
ness and death were alone caused
by the haft of a large knife becom-
ing immovably fl xed across the in

A Sheriff Conquered by "a
Woman.

According to the st. Adams Hes
senge,; the dignity of the State of
Vermont was seriously compro-
missed at Cabotrecently, in the per-
son of constable. The narrative
is as fellows:
John Damon, the constable of
Cabot, visited the house of Joseph
Ainsworth for the purpose OF put
ting an attachment on some pota-
toes in his cellar. After Mr.. Dam
on had descended the ladder
through the trap door to the cellar
Mrs. Ainsworth or it. She told Mr.
Damon he could not come up till
he would promise solemnly not to
put an attachment on their pota-
toes. Mr. Damon promise, he said,
",he most solemn vow he ever
promised to a woman;" then she
lei him up the trip, striking him
severely with the fire shovel, as
he came up, over his back and
sides. Mr.. Damon made tracks
for out of doors, and declared she
was too smart for hima and he should
never dare to visit their mansion
AGAIN.

The withdrawal of State subsidies
from Roman Catholic Church in Prus
STA, if consummated will deprive the
church of 100000 annually.
There are more buffaloes on the
Texas prairies than for many years
past in spite of the theory that those
animals are fast becoming extinct.
There are no less than 1000 men
in, and on the road to, the Black
Hills. 1t will take one quarter of
the whole United States to drive
such body out.
At Gloucester, England, recently a
man was fined by a magistrate for
stealing a ride on the railroad, and as
the man was very poor, the magis-
trate paid the fine himself.
The following puzzle is again on its
rounds: "To five and five and fifty
five the first of letters add twill

and drove a wise man mad" 1t was
published first about twenty years
ago and has never been correctly am
swered. But they say there is an an

This is an advertising age. Every
man who is up to the times takes
care that the world knows it. A
trade candle is not hidden under q
bushel, but placed upon hill. Bus
mess is found to increase in direct
ratio with the amount of money ju-
diciously expended in letting the
public know where you are and what

Yes, SIS, 900 is large sum; but
you forget that libel once started
against even an innocent woman
never ends. 1T follows and ever fol

1t is the blight that consumes the
flower of her life; every man who
looks into her face thinks of it, and
when she gets married her husband
may twit her of it. No, SIS, 900 is not
a large sum to reeompense life over

dal, has trailed its Shiny form.

Bee Swarssas.

We have been requested to pub
lish this plan TO save bee swarms
We do it to accommodate our
friends.
A bee keeper gives the follow
ing plan to prevert a swarm Of bees
from getting away from the hive,
with the statement, that during ten
years experience he has never
known it to fail but once:
AS soon as they show the first
symptoms OF sWarming, stop up
some OF the outlets 10 the hive, so
as to force them TO be a long time
i'm coming out. The swarm being
made up in part of young bees,
many OF them unable to fly we'll
and as the swarm can do nothing
until all are out aud flying in the
air, by prolonging their exit, the
eeble ones become tired, and find
ing this, alight TO arrange their
journey. If they leave the old
hive at once they care very little
about alighting.
