ISDIAN MANAGEMENT.-The bill TO trans-
Ter the Indians from the Interior to the War
Department passed the House by vote of
nearly two to one. Representative Lane, of
Oregon, made very able speech in favor of
the change, ami by his arguments contribu-
ted greatly to the SUCCESS OF the measure.
1t is feared that the Indian ring thieves will
have sufficient influence to defcut the bill tn

ANOTHER PHRASE FROM GRANr.-
Once more Grant has given US a
phrase which expresses piihily and
happily a thought and aspiration of
the whole people. He is famous fer
his phrases. Several of them ere in,
seperab!e from the history of the war.
On some occasions he concentrated
the programme of a campaign in an
epigranl as when be said, "the Cons
federacy is SHE'LL" or, Il will fight
1t out on this line" &. His declara-
alton to the republican party, that it
was time to unload was Of the same
sort. Now he expresses, with sense
OF lmpatience, hls wish that the 4lh
OF March, -, where already here
in short, that he were out of Office.
How deeply and widely the whole
American people are with him in this
respect, how precisely he has given
words TO their thought in utterIng his
own, he can never understand.

THE DETECTIVE BELL.
Who He is md what He is-sonie Facts
and Figures Concerning HIM.


and Figures ConeerRinS HIM.
The Omaha Herald gives this
sketch of Bell the detective: AS
there has been great deal said about
c. S. Bell, of Jackson, Mississippi, in
the recent Washington dispatches, in
connection with the War Department
investigation, Herald contribution
to the current literature of the day on
that subject may possess some inter-
est. While connected with the Nash
vile (rcnn.l press in 1873, the writer
became acquainted with Bell, then a
Special Agent of the Internal Reve-
nue. Departmental Supervisor Cobb's
district, and being thrown in his com
pany frequently, learned something
Of his history.
When the war broke out, Bell,
who is New Yorker by birth enter
ed the Union service in Missouri, as
a scout, and in that. capacity served
his country in a most effective man
ner during the entirs war, IN the
course Of which he travelled through
out the Southern States and met with
some remarkable adventures, which
latter were written up at length IN
the New York Ledger, as the close of
the war. When Gen. Reynolds was
in command Of the Department OF the
Southwest, Bell served in his depart
ment as detective, in which llne he
was instrumental in bringing to the
gallows some of the greatest despera-
does Of the age, but at tire cost OF
many terrible cuts, shots and bruises
upon his own person. About i've
years ago he married the daughter OF
the matron of Mississippi's deaf and
dumb institute, located at Jackson
and has consequently made that city
his headquarters ever since. His wife
is a remarkably handsome woman,
and he has a couple Of charming
children. Bells personal appearance
is of such 4 character as would at
tract attention anywhere, being tall
and well built, with , long flowing
beard of q rich brown color. He is a
man of wonderful nerve and deter
mination, aud. where occasion to re-
quire it, would shoot a man down
without a moments hesitation, and
his eventful career Of the past
fifteen years has frequently dyed his
hands with the blood of his fellows.
His manners are easy and graceful,
and he Is an excellent companion
with whom to while away leisure
hour. Heis ready, graceful writer,
and we remember that upon one Occa
sion he asSilted Us in writing up the
execution OF Il negro at Nashville, up
on which occasion he did the descrip-
tive part in a mastery manner, and
apparently without the least mental
effort, the glowing adjectiyes slipping
uninterruptediy from the poiht of his
pencil from an apparently meXhaus-
tible fountain.
He is a man of brilliant abilities,
but belongs TO that large class who
came out of the army untitled for any
other than a life OF continued excite
ment, and of late years las dritted
into Objectionable habits.

CtuFoEyTA AND THE CHIYAWAY.-
The Supreme Court of the United
States having, in a recent decision,
swept away the local laws of Cali
fornia for the suppression of John Chi.
naman, the disgusted Caucasians OF
tha. commonwealth are getting up
indi,natioa meetings on the subject.
At oae Of these anti>Chinese assem-
b,aces in San Francisco, at which ten
thousand warlike white men were
present, the Governor in the chair,
resolutions we're adopted in favor OF
an appeal to Congress ani to a new
treaty with the Celestial Empire
whereby the detested Mongolian i'm
migrant will be, as far as possible,
excluded from the soil of California.
II must be said, however, 10 the
credit of the local authorities OF San
Francisco, that. to prevent threaten
ed raid from this white mems meeting
upon the Chinese quarter Of the city,
Gordon of the poliece force was
stationed around it, and thus the poor
bewiIdered Chinese therein escaped
the wrath of a bowling mob Of" out
side barbarians." Still, it Is true
that there are two sides to this Chi
nese question,and that unless We have
soon a comprehensive law from Con-
cress in relation 10 immigrants, en-
bracing their protection and the pro-
lection Of our Seaboard cities against
the importation Of coolies, vagabOnds,
outlaws and vicious characters By
Wholesale, ;here will some day be
such scenes of violence and bloodsbed
in San Francisco and other cities as
will enforce legislative and Diplomatic
action on the subject.

While in this slough, the boat struck

Smith and Morton were drowned .,
but Elliot swan toward the bank,
and after several attempts TO make a
landing, was compelled to hold to a
bunch of willow III the water; and
there, unable TO render his companions
assistance, sat and observed them
struggling In the current till they be-
came exhausted and sank. Elliot
shouted for help till a man came, who,
after vainly eudeavoring to rescue
him, left and hurried to Jefferson for
means to succor Elliot. A party
with boat on a wagon reached Eli
OFT about ten o'clock last night and
relieved him, after his having been in
the water and holding to a bunch of
willows for six hours. The bodies of
the drowned men were not recovered

Nor At ALI SuRrlIstNG.-TLe Gov
ernment Office holder, however capa-
bic and upright lie may be, in these
degenerate times is an object Of sns-
picion. When he walks the street he
looks upon the by.passer - one who
has it in his thought, " Who knows
but it Will he lis turn next :" To the
sensitive man Of refined feeling, a
position of the kind is disagreeabie
aud embarrassing, The slightest Off
cial error exposes him to public cen
sure, and his purest motives are liable
to miscoustruction. This was not al
WAYS the case. There was a period
in the history Of the Government
when, TO he recognized a, worthy of
wearing It's livery was an honor which
most men priced. 1t impaired dignI-
ty and gave a claim upon high social
position 10 the incumbent, whose am
bilion was to adorn his Office ANA re.
tire from it with the esteem Of his
fellow citizens. That was before pecu.
laIion became the rule, and distrust
was seldom or never induIged, Ee-
cause of the rarity of official delin
quency. The public servant was not

become, nor placed in an attitude Of
