England and samoa.

The English government has recalled
the English vessel which suppressed
Steinberger and his Ministry in the
Pacific island of Samoa 1t is inferred
from this that the conduct Of this officer
does not meet the appreciation of Lord
Derby. AS An illustration Of our own apathy
in a matter which concerns us far more than
it does England the whole Samoa business
has been forgotten already. and no one
knows what has become of poor Steinberger.
If this Samoa affair had taken place in the
early part of the administration, with a new
President and q new party in power there
would have been q different policy with
England ThorG can be little doubt that
American interests were kicked out of Samoa
in the most nncercmonious manner, and
that we submitted to the indignity with a
calmness which no English government
similarly situated would have done. The
question arises now, as it has arisen before,
whether the honor of the country is ever safe
in tho hands of an administration which has
lost the confidence of the people. Even if
Grant had high duties before him, we
question if he would be allowed to dis
charge them in a time like this The time
must come when the voice of the people in
the administration of the government will
find Immediate expression as it does now in
England. A discrcdted government is
never sensitive to the nations honor.

would deprive Presidents in Office Of the vast
machinery which they are tempted to use to
secure their reelection. 1t would render
the civil service as neutral in our political
contests as the military service or the judi
ciary; for the civil officers could no longer
be employed by our Presidents IS q vast
army of partisans and used to pack caucuses
and conventions and overrule the will of the
people by their address and activity. It
would cut up by the roots the bad practice
of farming out the federal Offices to members
of Congress in exchange for their support,
and prevent the civil service from being de-
graded into base tool for promoting the
selfish ambition of little great men in the
Congressional districts. 1t would relieve
both the President and members of the two
houses of Congress from the endless con-
sumption of time which they ought
to devote to the proper business Of
their stations 1t would cure that wide
spread disease of office-seeking and political
subservienoy which is sapping the founda-
ton of public morals and threatens to en-
gulf our institutions. If the President had
only to fill vacancies caused by death or
resignation he could give deliberate atten-
ton to every appointment with an infinitely
better chance of fit selections.
The rule of permanence for faithful, ef
fcient officers during good behavior would
not apply to such officers as exert real in
fuence in determining the policy of tho
government. The President and Congress
would continue to be elected at short inter-
walls, and the heads of departments and all
persons employed in the diplomatic and
consular service should be subject to re-
moval by the joint action of the President
and Senate. But nothing would have SO
powerful tendency to purify our debased
and degraded public life as curailment Of
executive patronage by making competent
and faithful subordinate officers indepen-
dent of party changes, and permitting their
removal only for reasons disconnected from
party politics

sitti.g BUR. Autobiography.

We print this morning q series Of draw
ings by the Sioux chief representing events
in the life of that warrior from the time Id
became brave among his tribe until he waa
fully recognized as a great chief 1t will DO
seen that the standard by which he meas
ures bravery and courage is not
high one, and that manliness has no
part in the nature of q savage. According
to his own showing he is as apt to kill
woman as warrior. and he depicts the steal
ing of mule with as much elaboration as
victory over his enemies But for all this
there is character in these rude drawings
which shows that the mind which conceived
and the hand which executed them are ca
pable of something more heroic than the vul-
gar murders in which this coarse savage de-
lighted to paint himself as the hero. His
fight with Custer gives him az high q
place as wnrrior as any Indian
ever attained in the long wars between tho
red man and the white. In that battle he
showed cunning, courage, dash-everything
which pertains to soldier, including. per.
haps, even magnanimity. These qualitiei
make him all the more dangerous as foe
and the picture story of part of his career
which We have from his own hand, and ar
able to reproduce this morning. shows how
cruel he may be upon occasion. With him t.
wreak vengeance upon his enemies is tho
great object Of the life Of brave
man, and Sitting Bulls whole career has been
the seeking out of those whom he chose to
regard as his foes. that he might kill them.
He is a savage after the kind whom OUT
ancestors found on the shores and rivers OF
the Atlantic when they first came to make
their homes in the wilderness-a chief az
bold, as brave and as cruel as any warrior
that preceded him. This is shown espe
cially in his recent exploit; but
every line in the sketches this savage
chleftain drew of his deeds of blood is in
stinct with the unheeding and unmanly
cruelty of the savage. In presenting these
pictures to the readers of the HERALD we lay
before them what is, in fact, the autobiog-
raphy of the now famous chief From them
we may learn more OF the warrior and the
savage in few minutes than it would bl
possible to obtain from any other source.
and, therefore, we feel a certain thankful
ness toward Sitting Bull for giving the white
man such an insight into the character Of
his Indian foe.

GOVERNOR TnDEN was yesterday officially
informed of his nomination for the Presi-
dency by tho st. Louis Convention, and, in
response to the speeches of General
McClernand and Mr. B. w. Hanna, he ac-
cepted the proffered honor and promised to
write formal letter of acceptance. 1t will
be observed that the speeches are singularly
songratulatory in character and that of MIR.
Hanna, especially, will be likely to afford
some amusement to the rhetoricixns Of tho
republican party.

GENERAL CRooK.-A despatch from Fort
Fetterman announces that since the de-
parture of supply train some time ago for
Crooks camp on the south fork of Goose
Greek, at the foot of the Big Horn Range,
no news has arrived from General Crook
1t is evident that no uneasiness exists at
Fort Fetterman as to the condition of the
expedition, because it is stated that a
courier from Crook is daily expected. If
the officers in charge of tho fort entertained
any doubts about the safety of Crook they
certainly would say so in their dispatches.
A telegram from Omaha states that
nothing has been learned there in con-
irmation of the reported massacre Of Crook

CENTENNIAL FIRES in this city numbered
ninety-eight, and eighty-eight were caused
BY fireworks. We have had marvellous
escape from q disastrous confagrntion, and
we hope that in future the Police and Fire
Department regulations for the Fourth of
July oelebrations will render such catas-
trophe well nigh impossible. The warning
of the Centennial Fourth ought to be sufti-
cient for another century.
The New York herald., 1876-07-12

and his command, and tho rumor is gener-
ally disbelieved The silence Of Crook for
such long time is, nevertheless, sugges-
tive of trouble. Perhaps the more correct
view of the case would be to consider that
his couriers have been intercepted or driven
back, either by the Sioux scouts lowering
in his rear or by the bands of friendly
Indians" moving from the agencies to join
Sitting Bull The fate Of Custer makes that
of Crook matter of painful anxiety. which
can only be removed by reliable news of his
safety.

Our PARTING GUEST. Majesty Dom
Pedro, who leaves this country for his
European trip this morning, will carry with
him the highest respect and esteem of the
American people. Although His Majesty
has made a point of not accepting any of
the attentions that would have been
showered upon him in his quality of EN-
peror, still it was impossible to forget that
he was something more than . nobleman
and a man of science that he was the chief
of the greatest nation in America next to
our own. The American people were not
only glad to welcome His Majesty for per-
sopAl reasons, but as q mark of their esteem
for the Brazilian people, with whom we have
al~.ys been on terms of amity and in whose
prosperity we take 30 deep an interest He
has our best wishes for happy voyage; and
should he ever honor as with another visit
he will be received with all the respect for
his charaster and requirements which bis
sAoet stay has inspired.

MUNICIPAL ORGANIZATION is just now the
important political question in France, but
it involves no principle, the only point being

adoption of the government policy.
