No moral culture is complete that
does not include the determination
which gives strength to character. A
prze was once offered in u large coll
lege for the best answers TO the ques.
ton, "What is the secret OF success"
The student who bore OIL the palm
merely wrote one word: "Determina-
ton" This was the whole thing in n
nutshell. The lack of determination
will as surely lead to failures as de-
termination will insure success. In
educating children, parents should see
that they are not forming the habit OF
beginning things, and laying them
aside before completed. Set them an
example of courage, determination to
begin work and go through it reso-
lutely. Measure their capacity, and
induce them to work up to 1t. Spare
no time or pains to inculcate habits OF
perseverance-no pains to teach them
to have confidence in their own pow
ers,

An Ill.dispOsed Child.

The Allegheny penn Mail says "A
girl named Agnes Hill, not over fourteen
years of age, is at the Central Station,
Pittsburg. charged with poisoning her pa
rents. She has been living for some time
with her mother and steptather, but was
previously in the Home for the Destitute.

of some difficulties. Her parents were
both taken violently i'll on Saturday morn

ing poisoned them, and she admitted it.
She had placed in the coffee a considera-
BILE quantity of muriatic acid which her
stepfather, who is plumber, had been
using TO- soldier lead pipes. The queer
taste given othe beverage prevented her
parenfss from drinking much of it, and
consequently neither of them was serious
ly injured. The girl stated that she dosed
the coffee in revenge for whipping her
mother had given her. She was arrested
and her case is still under advisement.
Her parents decline to prosecute her for
the offense but wish to get her put into
the Reform School.

Chicago August Is. The Times correspond

Terry's force which left Rosebud the Sth, num-
bered 1000 fighting men, and was accompanied
by two hundred and twenty-five wagons with sup
plies for thirty days.
Terry, with the view of joining Crook, will
move down the west bank of the Rosebud, 70
miles, when the combined forces will endeavor to
engage the Indians in the region of Big Horn
mountains. Crow scouts report that the main
body of Sitting Bulls band is camped q river
a tributary of Big Horn, and to engage them if
necessary.
To cross Big Horn Mountains is an almost i'm
possible undertaking at this season of the year.
There appears no prospect of another engage
ment with the Sioux unless the Indians desire to
make fight, as the troops will be unable to over
take them before the appearance of cold weather.
1t is reported large bands of Northern Indians
have been seen crossing the Missouri below Fort
Benton, and it is not believed they will make a
stand against the troops again this year.
mand to the mouth of the Rosebud, about Sept.
10Th. All troops will be withdrawn after that
date. The command will march overland from
supply camp, along the north bank of the Yellow
stone, to point opposite Fort Buford, where a
ferry will be arranged to move the command to
the East Bend of the Missouri.
Troops from that point will march overland to
garrison posts in Dakota, and along the Missouri
river. The steamer Far West will remain at the
mouth of the Rosebud until the return of troops
and will carry the sick and wounded and such
supplies and camp equipage received TO the
mouth of the Yellowstone and down the Missouri.
All of the steamers except this have been taken
out of the river.

PRESIDENT GRANTS MESSAGE TO
THE HOUSE.
His Views ON the Appropriation for the
Consular and Diplomatic Service.

Washington, August u. The President sent
the following message to the House of Representa-
tives:
In announcing as l do that I have attached my
signature of official approval to the act making
appropriation for the consular and diplomatic SER
vice OF the government, for the year ending June
81. 1877. and other purposes, it Is my duty to call
attention to provision in the act directing that
notice be sent to certain of the diplomatic and
consular officers of the government to close their
offices. In the literal sense of this direction it
would be an invasion of the constitutional prerog
| alive and the duty of the executive. BY the con-
stution the President shall have power nv and
with the advice and consent of the S.I4a . L. make
treaties provided that two-thiGs ,nv .,oL4tois
present consent and he shall terminate, and by and
with the advice and consent of the Senate shall
appoint ambassadors and other public ministers
and consuls, etc. 1t is within the power of Con-
gress to grant withhold an appropriation of
money for the payment of salaries and expenses
of the foreign representatives Of the government.
In the early days of the government sum in
gross was appropriated, leaving it to the executive
to determine the grade of the officers and the
countries to which they should be sent. Latterly,
| for many years, specific sums have been appropri-
ated for designated mission or employment, and
as rule the omission by Congress to make an APP
preparation for any specific post has heretofore
been accepted as an indication of a wish on the
part of Congress, which the executive branch of
the government respected and complied with In
calling attention to the passage which l have in
dcated, l assume that the intention of the pro-
vision is only to exercise the constitutional pre-
rog alive Of Congress the expenditures of the
government and to fix time at which the COM
pensaton of certain diplomatic and consular otiic-
shall cease, and not to involve the prerogatve
of the executive which should be compelled to
resist. My present object is not to discuss or dis
pute the wisdom of failing to appropriate for sew
ers offices, but to guard against the construction
that might possibly be placed in the language
used as implying right to the legislative branch
to direct the closing or disseminating of any of
the diplomatic or consular offices of the govern
ment (Signed)
