Our PerRdy Towards the Indians.


The fate Of the gallant Custer and bis
companions in arms is the result of q
breach Of faith on the part Of our govern
ment with the Indians which has involved
US in war with these frontier tribes. The
Black Hills are situated in the Reserva-
ton which belongs to the Sioux by solemn
treaty stipulation. There is gold there,
and the miners are trespassers upon the
rights Of the indians, who went to Wash
ington about a year ago, at the summons
Of the Government, to treat for the cession
Of these lands to the Government. But
the terms offered were not satisfactory,
and the Indians departed for their homes
in spirit of evaporation and discomfort
Hostilities have ensued The Indians are
not disposed to be robbed by the white
man, who not only takes the gold Of his
hills without authority or right, but robs
him Of the provisions and supplies sent to
him by the U. S. Government, and leaves
him destitute. This is the simple story
Of the wrongs which have induced the In-
dams to take up arms in defence of their
rights against the sapacity Of the white
man.
Custer had been Inundated, II is alleged,
BY the appointment Of another over him,
on account Of his testimony before Con-
gress in reference to the army post trader
ships. Stung by the insult, he resolved
to snatch the laursls of this Indian cam
paign before they could be plueked by
another. He charged the Indians by the
troops of his division of the army, expect
ing victory, but found the red men in
superior numbers, well armed with Enfield
rifles, and fell victim, he and his COM
mand, to rashness on his own part, and a
perfdious policy towards the Indians, on
the part Of the Government. And now
there is to be another expensive Indian
war, and Republican politicians are clam
oring at Washington, against the reduc-
ton of the army expenditures proposed by
the Democratic House, alleging this In
dian war, thus brought on, as an argu-
ment against it.

Mn. HAYES ACCEPTS. -The letter Of
Governor Hayes, accepting the Republi-
can nomination for tho Presidency, was
published on Monday. He declares for
reform in the civil service, and the reten-
ton of officers during good conduct; says
it is his inhexible purpose, if elected, not
to be candidate for u second term; and
declares for hasd money.
Mr.. Hayes was month, lacking four
days, in publishing his letter Of aecep-
lance, which made its appearance on Mon
day last. The World says the most OBJ
vious criticism on the letter is "that it has
been carefully constructed by the party
managers for political effect, and that there
is not one hearty, outspokcn word in it
from beginning to end" The New York
Sun says sit is weak letter, notwith-
standing the fact that so many politicians
have assisted him in getting it up. Mr..
Hayes is not the man for the times--not
the reformer needed by the country"
