The Indian Summer.

The weather plays more important part
in human economy than we realize A mild
winter bankrupts the skate dealers, and
would bankrupt the coal merchants if they
did not increase their prices in proportion to
the rise of the thermometer. cold summer
iuins the hotel keepers at the seashore and
the lakes. Fogs, it is known on the highest
French authority, drive the people of Lon
don to suicide. Too much rain destroys the
millinery business and too little reduces the
umbrella man to despair Either a long
drought or great flood will reduce pros
porous nation to beggary. A chilly day is q
direct loss to the soda water trade and equiv
alent to new capital to the taverns There
is nothing in the world that people would
rather manage than the weather and nothing
that is more unmanageable. The govern
ment, which has a growing mania for the
management of everything, has taken the
weather into its charge, as far as possible,
and thus far with fair success If it has not
free will it has at least foreknowledge, and
its weather predictions are quite useful. Mr..
Proctor, the English astronomer, says that
during the six months he spent in America
these predictions were only wrong three times
Once clear weather was announced and
Mr. Proctor left his umbrella at home and
got thoroughly soaked; another time rain
was expected and Mr. Proctor carried green
umbrella around all day in the hot sun; the
third time he stayed at home. The veiled
prophet of Washington is certainly more
accurate in.his prophecies than other seers,
but when he says, as he did the other day.
that the probabilities are th it will be clear
in the Middle States, with possibly rain in
New York, does he not hedge little too
much on the future? TO say that it is prob
able that a thing will be possible is to make
| rather safe assertion. However, it is likely
that it is possible that we may be certain that
we will be sure not to criticise too severely a
prophet who is just now 50 agreeable. The
delicious weather which we now enjoy may
not be Of his provision, but he gets credit for
il, and reflected glory shines on him from
tho sky. The autumnal woods do him

The ForeshAdowed Downfall OF Tam
MANY.

The fact that the city Of New York is op-
posed TO the present management Of Tam
many Hall and is prepared to cast majority
OF us votes against John Kelly's organiza-
ton whenever q union Of the opposing ele-
ments can be effected, is conclusiyelv shown
by the result Of last years local election
The true democratic vote Of the CITY was
shown on Governor Tilden, who received
more than forty-two thousand majority over
Governor Dix. But when the citizens came
to vote on the Tammany candidates, they
gave Wickham only eight thousand majority.
the opposition not being united against him,
and they beat Hayes, against whom the OPP
position was united, by eleven thousand
votes. They gave General JONES' the candi-
date of the united opposition to Tammany
for Register, nearly two thousand votes moro
than Wickham, the Tammany candidate, re-
ceived from the Tammany democracy.
Taking the vote for Register Jones as the
basis upon which to calculate the chances OF
the present united opposition against Tam
many, and we find the following encouraging
facts. The vote for Register last year stood
as follows-
For Jones, united opposition. 7l1o7
For Hayes, Iammany ...................... 50, 100
United opposition Tammany ........ II, 6ii
There was not an element that was agains.
Tammany last year on Jones that is not
against Tammany this year on the Haclett
ticket with the single exception of John
Fox. Last year Fox cast his influence in his
Senatorial district against Hayes and the
result was that the vote in the district stood
as follows:-
For For HAYES II a52
Majority for Hayes. 5,l6O
Mayor Wickham was supported by Fox,
and his vote in the district compares with
the vote for Hayes as follows:-
For Wckham. ........................... 1873
For Hayes OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. 1882
wickham over Hayes yes.................. 2,3as
1t is clear, therefore, that two thousand
three hundred and ninety-six votes are the
full measure of all the strength the support
of Fox gave to General Jones in the Fourth
Senatorial district. Fox is this year with
Tammany, but Morrisseys fight against Fox
in the Fourth district will certainly give
more votes in the district to the Hackett
ticket than Fox gave last year to Jones.
Apart from Fox every element that was
against Tammany last year on General Jones.
is against Tammany this year on Hackett.
On the other hand, Morrissey, Hayes, Sena-
tor Ledwith, County Clerk Walsh, Costigan,
Peter Woods and a host Of other local leaders
who were active workers for Tammany last
year, are now openly in the field against
Tammany. The laborers, who were unitedly
with Tammany last year, are now opposed
to the men who held out to them false prom
ises of work, and cut down their pay forty
cents a day. When to these facts are united
the strong feeling on the part of all the
reputable part of the community against
John Kelly's attempt to drive a pure and
faithful Judge from the Bench from personal
motives, it must be admitted that the success
of the Hackett ticket next week seems to be
assured.

many others who are harvesting Of higher
capacity and wider training and equal de-
votion who preach from week to week to
slender and unappreciative congregations.
The Moody and Sankey revival as il IS
called, is, we repeat, a phenomenon worthy
OF consideration. We respect the energy
and enthusiasm of these gentlemen. We
trust that their work will bear good fruits.
We do not in any way disparage their en-
thusiasm or their belief in the teachings Of
the divine Master but at the same time
it is a phenomenon after all, mere
ripple upon the surface of our religious
life. The thousands who crowd the Brook
lyn Rink are many of them, we fear, attracted
Of curiosity by the echo Of names that come
to them from over the sea, who are not above
a new sensation, and who are curious to
feel the influence which has so largely
affected the religious mind Of England.
The truth will be found, we think, that
Moody and Sankey represent, even at
their best, that camp meeting fervor which
may be found every summer in the gather
ings of our various Christian denominations.
As a novelty in England it produced an un-
usual impression but in this country Chris
tian men will find before they get through
with this revival that they are listening to
men who are telling them, only in an odd,
unusual way, the lesson which they are taught
in nearly every congregation in America by
humble ard cultured men whose names have
not gone beyond the confines of their own
parish.

The Wrongs of the Red Man.

The long series Of wrongs heaped upon the
aborigines Of America ever since the discov-
cry and settlement Of this country has
nothing more heartless or pathetic than the
story Of the Temecula Indians which we
print this morning. We are accustomed to
speak Of the cruelty and treachery Of the
savage, but the avarice and inhumanity Of
the white man are even more prominent fea-
lures in American history. in little more
than two centuries the natives have been
driven from the Atlantic to the Rocky
Mountains and tribes as countless as the
leaves Of the forest reduced to mere
handful Of half-staryed wretches. The brave
is no longer a warrior, but loafng and
treacherous murderer, and the Indian has
no rights anywhere. If he refuses to 90
upon a reservation necessity requires that
be shall be exterminated. If he puts him
self under the fostering care Of the Great
Father the Indian Ring is sure to rob him
first and allow him TO starve afterward. Go
where he will, civilization" in one form or
another, is sure to follow him and to op-
press him. To this fate the Tomecula
Indians are no exception. Indeed, the story
Of their misfortunes is one Of the
most pathetic Of the whole series. hun
dred years ago their children swarmed on the
Pacific coast. Now they are reduced to a
beggarly FIVE thousand. Then tie whole
land was theirs Now there is not a foot Of
ground they can call their own. Retreating
before advancing civilization, they at last set
tied down among a cone Of the San Bernardino
Mountains but the white man from over the
seas coveted the spot for q sheep pasture and
the native is not even left room enough to
starve without disturbance One Frenchman
and two Scotchmen have ousted the original
lords Of the soil, and their sheep Craze in the
Indians last retreat Is il thus the govern
/ ment Of the United States takes care Of the
y rights Of these poor poople-the rightful
wards Of the nationP Is it possible that one
4 Frenchrnan and brace Of Scotchmen, either
with or without the consent Of the govern
ment at Washington, are allowed to dispossess
five thousand people, that they may feed theil
sheep on the last vestige Of the heritage Of
the red man? The case, as presented in the
letter Of Colonel Peel and transmitted to Tho
Indian Bureau, is one which not only oxcites
our sympathies, but demands the immediat,
attention Of the department and the country

The Disastrous storms in Great Brit


Special kilograms from London inform US
Of the visitation Of England and Scotland by
terrible storms Of wind and rain, which have
caused enormous damage, with loss Of life by
inundations in England and equally dis
tressing and fatal shipwrecks on the coast
of Scotland, between Pittenweem and
Peterhead. The storm, or rather cyclone,
which has caused this devastation was
similar in every respect to that which
visited the Texas coast last month, but its
curve Of progress did not bring it as far to
the west as our Atlantic coast. The apex Of
the curve or most westerly point Of turning
was located to the southwest of Bermuda, in
the open ocean, and the meteor swept over
that island in its northeasterly course. Sew
erval vessels arriving at American ports dur
ing the past ten days report violent hurri-
canes in the mid-Atlantic, so that no doubt
whatever can exist as to the character of the
storm in Great Britain. The country
inundated by the heavy rains is in the
northeastern counties, particularly that Of
l1luCOluSIlI6. ne IlNGT SOuICCS dI0 IL LILO
hilly districts Of South Yorkshire and Not
tingham, and from this region, favorable for
the sudden accumulation of the waters, the
foods descend and overtop all barriers IN
the low level plains to the eastward, convert
ing them into vast lakes of boiling, surging,
wreck-laden waters. Such scenes as we
briefly describe are well illustrated in the
account Of the fen floods in 'fThe Mill on
the Floss, the scene being laid in the same
region that is now devastated. The wrecks
on the east coast of Scotland show that the
cyclone passed diagonally, as it were,
through England, with very slow progress
sive motion. The poor fishermen who earn
livelihood by the herring fisheries are, in
all probability, the heaviest sufferers. The
HERALD has repeatedly insisted on the ne
cessity Of establishing a perfect system of
international storm signals especially be
tween countries that ere exposed to these
cyclonic visitations. The interests Of COM
merce, not to say humanity, imperatiyely
demand the establishment of such without
