Much gossip is afloat respecting
the Duke and Duchess of Ed
inburgh. On the 1st of April next the
Duke will sail for the Mediterranean,
where he intends to have two years
cruise. About the same time the Ouch
ess will go to Russia, where she
intends to make at least three
months stay. but in reality the
date Of her return to England is
very uncertain Now, the Mediterrane-
an Is not like India, where the Princess
OF Wales could not very well accompany
her husband, nor is the Dukes cruise
connected with affairs Of state. The
consequence is, people are asking why
the Duchess does not go with her hus-
band, and spend at least some portion
OF her long absence at. one OF the
numerous health resorts on the
shores Of the Mediterranean. What
makes the matter still more OK
traordinary, is that the Duke and
Duchess are discharging their servants
and selling off stock. while Eastwell
Park will be completely shut up in. a
short time. It was expected that the
Duchess would go on, a visit to her
august parents, but the longest period
report fixed for her stay in the Russian
capital was originally three or four
weeks.

Senator Oglesby, during the debate on
the Indian question last week, expressed
the opinion that the red brother should
be accorded the privilege OF American
citizenship. Said he:
THAT Is the solution; that is the
policy: that is the way it must end, or it
will end in ruin or heartless extirpation.
I will not dip my fingers in this blood,
Mr.. President. I So Let us bury
the past with the tomahawk; let Us eX-
tend the warm hand of greeting to our
ancient and venerable enemy Of the
plains, and ask him if he will not come
in, ratify all the constitutional amend
ments, and stand up with us in the
onward march to that glorious ,fructi-
fication in which every man shall. be
a potentate and nobody shall be a
subject" qseoL hnB'laiI1
This is quite a wonderful exhibition
Of liberality toward the Indian, for
Republican. And now, if Senator Ogles-
by was as willing to indulge in that
onward march to that glorious fruc-
LITIGATION with the white brother of
Southern birth, there would be some
consistency in his remarks Courier
