The Calamity in Texas.

1t is possible that there may be some ex-
aggeration in the reports which we receive
from the Gulf of Mexico; but even making
allowance for the terror of men who write
with the waves tumbling through their
streets and their roof-trees falling over their
heads, 1t is unfortunately too true that we are
In the presence of widespread, painful and
terrible disaster. The appeal of the District
Attorney is painful in its brevity and force:-
''We are destitute; the town is gone. One
quarter of the people are gone. Dead bodies
are strewn for twenty miles along the bay.
Nine-tenths of the houses are destroyed.
Send us help, for God saker' This is the ap-
peal of one American citizen to the American
people, and certainly there could be nothing
more heartrending in its brevity and truth.
Indianola is one of the oldest towns on the
Gulf 1t goes back to the Spanish occupa-
ton, before the independence of the Repub-
lie. 1t has been shipping point between
Mexico and the United States, and, although
it has grown but little in the last few years,
railroad communications and the ingress of
commerce gave to it bright future. But
people are homeless; lighthouses, wharves,
business houses, dwellings, have been
swept away; fences and trees are piled up in
broken masses, and rails are washed from
their bed. Only five houses are left stand
ing, and the people are suffering for food and
clothing. Thus far the reports show that
from hundred to one hundred and fifty
lives have been lost.
Our first duty in considering this appall-
ing disaster is to remember that there are
fellow citizens who need our immediate aid.
We of the North should be especially prompt
in assisting the suffering in Indianola and
Galveston and elsewhere. 1t is one of the
few opportunities that have been vouchsafed
to us since the war to do a brotherly act to
brethren in distress. 1t was only the other
day that we were doing what we could to
alleviate the terrible calamity that had fallen
upon the people of France. Now the same
appeal comes from our own citizens on the
Gulf New York should send promptly to
these people supplies in the way
of clothing and food, or money
that will buy supplies in New Or
leans and elsewhere, SO that they may be
speedily helped. 1t is only necessary for our
people to know the extent of any calamity
of this kind for them to make prompt and
full response In the presence of visitation
like this-a visitation of God, manifesto
ton of His extreme and irresistible power,
when lives are lost and towns are swept
away, when the uttermost effort of mans
knowledge only shows that we are as reeds
before the wind in the presence of His awful
and inscrutable power-there can be but one
thought, and that is of assistance to those in
trouble. And this should be given not as a
duty but as pleasure. Duties of this kind
are pleasures. They show that whatever we
may be in politics or in sectional feeling we
are one in the bonds of humanity and kind
ness.

A Model Indian Agent.

We respectfully request Secretary Delano's
attention to the statements of a HERALD cor
respondent, in our journal of yesterday, con-
cerning what they call at Washington 'ir-
regularities" at the Fort Berthold Indian
Agency. The Indians at this agency are dis
satisfied, it seems, and they give as reasons
for their dissatisfaction such matters as that
the agent hires them to work, and then pays
them with goods, which are already theirs
that he charges them very high prices for this
property of their own, as, for instance, when
Black VOLTS wife wants sugar the agent sells
her four pounds of her husbands sugar for
a dollar, when she ought not to pay more
than ten cents pound at a traders store
that the agent swindles them in buying their
hides, giving them but two dollars for hides
worth twice the money that he pays them
in checks, and sometimes gives out twenty
five cent check to an Indian who should re-
ceive two dollars, and who cannot read !;
that he keeps an uncommonly profitable
boarding house and supplies it out
of the stores belonging to the
Indians that their cattle last winter starved
to death because the agents brother bought
hay which had cottonwood piled up in the
middle of the stack that when an Indian
chops wood he has to take his pay in checks
on the Indian trader, who sells goods at a
hundred per cent profit, and who, they say,
is partner of the agent that when he sells
a cord to an Indian this unfortunate finds it
afterward charged on the books as having
been ''issued" to his wife that the agent
speculates in the cord wood cut from the
reservation by the Indians that the agents
brother speculates in the potatoes raised by
the Indians, selling them on his own account
to the steamboats, that the servants at the
agency are made to sign blank vouchers for
their earnings, and so on.
Mr.. Delano will find the letter extremely
interesting, especially passage in which it
appears that Sperry, the agent, has been
boasting that he is sure to retain the agency,
at least while General Grant remains Presi-
dent. He meant perhaps, as long as Mr..
Delano remains Secretary of the Interior.
We trust the Secretary will not overlook this
Fort Berthold agency. 1t will take good
deal of whitewash to cover up the rotten
matters there, and he should set some one at
work soon

The LIBERALS IN COUNCIL. That impor-
tant body, the Liberal Republican Conven-
ton, which has been amusing itself for
couple of days at Albany, has resolved to let
its ''party" do as it pleases in regard to the
rival tickets in the approaching State cleo
ton. 1t has indorsed Governor Tilden,
however, and the democratic platform. No
doubt the Governor and the platform will ba
gratifed however Indifferent the tickets may
be as to the action of the "party"
The New York herald., 1875-09-23

This respectable body transacted its bust
ness at Worcester yesterday with easy
promptitude and results which ought to be
satisfactory to its constituents It was
matter of course that it should renominate
Governor CASTOR by acclamation. The un-
expected triumph won in his election last
year, in State which is the citadel of the
republican party, was brilliant testimony
to his great personal worth, and he has so
borne himself in Office as to justify and in
crease the confidence of his fellow citizens.
Whether in Office or out of Office nobody in
Massachusetts, has ever spoken of him but
in terms of respect and commentator, and if
his reelection depended on personal
qualities alone the result could not be
doubtful. But until last year the democrats
of Massachusetts, were so insignificant and
hopeless minority that it is doubtful whe-
ther their accidental success can be repeated.
If democratic Governor should be elected q
second time in that ancient stronghold of
the republican party it would be one of the
most significant signs of the times. The ticket
is strengthened by the nomination of General
Fairchild, of Western Massachusetts,, as the
candidate for Lieutenant Governor. Cen
eral Fairchild is a popular and much es-
teemed liberal republican, and will add to
the popularity of the ticket outside the dem
ocratic ranks
The platform is skilfully drawn. It's Sc
lection of topics throws light on the political
feeling of the State. It's strong Endorsement
of the amendments to the federal constitu-
ton adopted at the close of the war and its
reprobation of secession indicate that the
progress of public sentiment in Massachu-
sets has not been as rapid as in some other
States In most of the States these are dead
questions and the fact that the Massachu-
sets democrats think it necessary to shield
themselves from imputations in relation to
them shows that old prejudices linger there
after their extinguishment in other parts of
the country. Some local questions are skill
prohibition, and especially the labor
question. The labor question is one
of great interest in Massachusetts,
The weavers who are on strike at
Fall River have hosts of sympathizers in oil
the large towns of that leading manufactur-
ing State We suppose the Republican Con-
vention will also put in bid for their votes,
but as the hard times are chargeablc to the
republican party the democrats will prob
ably reap most advantage from the discon-
tent of the laboring classes.
On the great national issue Of imitation the
Massachusetts democrats are sound and
right and in perfect harmony with the de-
mocracy of New York. If they re-elect Cover
nor CASTOR it will be by the aid of thousands
of republican citizens, and their success will
contribute to a reorganization of political
parties if the New York democrats led by
Governor Tilden, should undertake this
task.

the uss or Marrow Gauge Railroads

They begin to talk of railroads down II
Mexico, and the Mexicans see the Importance
of building line to connect with our rail
road system to give them access with thei
products to our markets as we'll as enable
them to obtain ours more cheaply At the
same time the value of narrow gauge roads
begins once more to be discussed. 1t is
doubtful if the narrow gauge is suitable for
trunk line which has reasonable expecta-
tions of great and constant traffic; though
there are not wanting experienced railroad
men who assert that a three foot gauge is the
best for all railroads. However that may be,
there is no doubt that for branch lines for
railroads in sparsely settled districts and
for mountainous countries the narrow gauge
is the best
But the truth is that we do not yet know
all about the use and the economy of the
iron track. 1t is tremendous machine,
which we have begun to use in q crude and,

crude system, without stopping to consider
how the greatest economy might be effected.
For long time it was thought that six-foot
gauge was preferable to four-foot-eight;
and when the Pacific Railroad was planned
there was vigorous attempt to make that
six-foot gauge. Now, however, the Eric
company will, as soon as they can borrow
money to do it, narrow their gauge because
they cannot compete with their rivals on
other terms
1t is not probable that any important line
in the country will be altered to a narroweI

likely that hereafter branch lines will be
built on three-foot or even two-foot-and-a.

extension of narrow gauge and economical

THE TURKISH SPLITTER The cable de-
spatches this morning hint at ''insurgent vic
tories" and tell us that "Trebigne is again
surrounded" AT the same time we are told
that the result of the efforts of the Consular
Commission is not yet known, and that the
report of its failure has been premature. It
is also announced that the Sultan and his
Ministers are fully convinced that certain
concessions are necessary, and that the old
state of things in Bosnia and Herzegovina
must be thoroughly changed. The reforms
indicated in the Consular reports will, there
fore, 1T is said, be carried out by the Porte
under any circumstances, all of which would
seem to imply that the Sultan is somewhat
alarmed at the condition of affairs, and that
the ''bears' in Turkish securities can score q
point in their favor

CARRYING WAR INTo AFR1cA-The pro.
ceedings of the Insurance Convention, now
in session in this city, were enlivened yester-
day by the introduction of resolution by
gentleman from Indiana declaring that there
is a necessity for legislation for the protection
of life policy-holders. The resolution was
followed up by an address in which the ins
surance companies were somewhat roughly
handled and were described as making such
bargain with insurers as the trader enc
deavored to make with the Indian. Money
invested in lottery tickets, the speaker
claimed, has made returns more frequently
than has money invested in life insurance.
policies. Such doctrine must have sounded
strangely in the ears of insurance commis-
sioners, superintendents and agents never%
theless the speaker was patiently heard and
his resolutions quietly quashed. Life insure
ance should be encouraged in the public in1
terests, for it no doubt checks pauperisnI
and saves much suffering. But the best way
to encourage it is to provide efficient protec4
ton to the insured hence the remarks Of
the gentleman from Indiana are worthy Of
consideration.

The PUBLIC SCHOOLS Commits
sioner Wood deserves credit for his cham
pionship of the cause of the female teachers
in the public schools at the meeting of the
Board of Education yesterday. The salaries
of the female teachers have been reduced
about three hundred dollars year and their
labor increased. In the primary schools
there are fifty scholars to each teacher, while
in the grammar schools the ratio is only
thirty-fve Although his resolution to in
crease the number of female teachers in the
primary schools was defeated, it is to be
hoped that the Commissioner will persevere
in his effort to obtain justice for these valu-
able and inadequately remunerated employees
of the city. There is no reason why the
female teachers should not be paid as much
salary as the males. The Board expressed in
plain terms its condemnation of the factious
course of the Comptroller in relation to the
school appropriations. Mr.. Green, it is
charged, neglects, in the teeth of a Supreme
Court decision, to hand over to the School
Department its unexpended balances, and
obstructs the payment of claims audited and
allowed by the Board. But this is only con-
sistent with the Comptroller's policy toward
all the public departments.

government that the Concordat between
Spain and the Vatican should be at once
executed, that the arrears due to the clergy

filed as speedily as possible. The reply of
the Ministers, while conciiatory in tone,
firmly denied the right Of the Nuncio to put
forward his demand under the circumstances
