KEEP busy. The man who has moth
ing to do is the most miserable of be.
ings. IF you have no work do chores
as farmers do when it rains too hard
to work in the field. In occupation
we forget our troubles and get a res
pite from sorrow. The man whose
mind and hands are busy finds no time
to weep and wall. If work is slack
spend the time in reading. No man
ever knew too much. The hardest
students in the world are the. old men
who know the most. If you lack
books, there are free or very cheap IL
braries, at least in cities, at your COM
mand. The man who does not acquire
some item of useful information be-
tween day-break and bedtime must
mournfully say, with the Roman EN-
peror, Il have lost day."

THE INDIAN WAR.

How near our Indian difficulties are
to close is hard to divine. The hos
tiles are showing themselves to be
good strategists, as well as fighters,
and seem desperately in earnest. The
recent battle between Joseph's forces
and those of Col. Gibbon resulted most
disastrously to our forces, nearly hall
of them having been killed, and all
their horses, supplies and ammunition
captured. 1t doesn't seem possible
for General Howard to ever overtake
and engage the savages with his ar
my, for the longer his pursuit contln-
ues the further he seems to fall behind.
That Gibbons force in Montana should
engage the Indians that Howard is
porsuing for whole day, and yet that
army not near enough at hand to even
be heard Of by Gibbon the day after
the battle is discouraging. These
continued successes on the part of the
hostiIes are nearly sure to rally to the
standard of Joseph large numbers of
other tribes unless he is checkmated
soon. Whole tribes may not go over
to him, but young and restless warri-
ors are nearly sure to find themselves
seeking and increasing his ranks, par
ticularly the Bannocks. Straws indi-
cate which way the wind blows, and
there are straws of news coming from
Fort Hall showing that the Bannocks
are more or less excited Of one
thing we feel quite confident, and that
is that General Howard ought to be
relieved and some one else placed in
command of the forces operating
against the Indians. We know it is
easy to find fault. We are not dis
posed to do so unnecessarily, but when
there seems to be no prospect Of pres
ent commanders accomplishing any
results we think a change becomes
necessary. The way things look now,
we see nothing to hinder Joseph from
whipping round by Yankee Fork, cap
turing that place if he wants it and
pressing his way through the noun
tain passes to his old stamping ground
and destroying the few lives and the
little property he left undestroyed be-
fore the commander of the United
States forces knows what he's about.
And if it should take Howard as long
to get back to, as it has to get away
from, Mount Idaho, he will not he in
Joseph's way much. He seems to act
as though he thinks Joseph is going
to make stand and fight him. That
Joseph will never do unless he is sure
of whipping him. Rapid pursuit and
rapid striking is the only way to fight
Indians successfully. Following a
hundred miles behind with an army
and pack or wagon train six miles
long is not forcible. The people on
the frontiers have right to protection
from the Government. Our people are
not having it, nor will they have it
under General Howard as commander.

FRITZ IN TROUBLE.
from the Brunswick News.l


got somepody to shake nineselt.
Here, Booll here Bool!"
In answer to his. call, a nearly
grown dog bounded to the scene.
"Now, Booll" said Fritz, "you watch
dem velers dot dey don't come down
out, und 1 gets der goon, and shoots
some stufin's out oh dem."
While Fritz was gone to the house
some distance away the boys began
devising means of escape. Mother
Necessity, after hard labor, brought
forth hopeful offspring. One of the
boys had a strong fsh-book, and an
other a stout cord. They fastened
these together and fished for that dog
After many attempts they at last sue
ceeded in catching the hook under the
dogs jaw and drawing him up. Fear
ing that the cord would not be strong
enough to hold him until they got
away, they hastily improvised.a rope
out of their suspenders, made loop
in one end, and cautiously drawing
the dog. to them, put it around his
neck, tied the other end to a limb, re-
moved the hook and line, and leaving
the animal suspended, climbed down
and scampered away. By the time
they were we'll out of reach, the rope
came united from the limb and the
dog dropped to the ground He re-
covered his senses in a little while,
the moose not having been very tight.
He was mad, and working his head
out of the loop, he began savage at
tack upon the suspenders, his mouth
meanwhile bleeding freely from the
wound made by the hook. Thus he
was found by Fritz when he returned
with his gun. Fritz gazed in aston
ishment and horror, first into the tree
and then upon the dog, and finally ex-
claimed:
"Mine gracious! vos dot possible?"
In dazed sort Of II way he re-
turned to the house, and the rest of
the day he moped around in a deep
study, occasionally muttering to him
self:
II toni believe it ov | ton't see it
mine own self. l nefer pefore see
Something's like dot"
The next morning Fritz-as is his
custom when in trouble-came to
town, went to his lawyer, and in a
cautious, non-committal way, ques-
toned him:
"Exposin' weller got some sherry
drees. Amt dot all right"
Certainly"
"Und exposin' der poys shteal UNI,
und der mans dog eat der poys oop-
vos der man exponsible for dot dogr
eyes, the man would be held res
ponsible for keeping a savage beast.
Have the boys been bothering your
cherries, Fritz"
"Oh, no, | tol.'t got some sherry
drees."
'Then your dog hasn't been chaw-
ing anybody up?"
Il ton't got any dog. ! shoost ask
you dose tings, for ven l read a story
like dot vonce | ton't believe it"
Fritz concealed his terror until he
got out of the lawyers Office, and then
be hurried home, saying:
Il vos exponsible, hay? Veil, l fix
dot, you bate"
Reaching home he coaxed Bull ont
to the stable and killed him with an
*, and then dug hole and buried
he dog and the torn suspenders to-
sether. Then wiping a tear from his
rye, he said:
Il most so soon kill der baby as
lot Bool, but he vos get der old Dutch
mans into trooble NIT his appetite.

OLE BULLS CONCERT,

At Steinway Hall last evening Ole Bull made
his last appearance in public prior to his departure for
Europe, before audience that was, as usual very
large and very enthusiastic His programme contained
much less Of his music than is generally the case
and it cannot be said that IL was any the worse
on this account. He played fantasia and Va
riations on air from Belinis Romeo G
GiulIetta," very brilliant composition, excel
lenty well adapted to show off his great agility in finger
ing and fun of tie dicult harm mics in which he so
much delights. As an encore lie played Home, Sweet
Home" in spite OF pressing demands from the gallery
for the Carnival uf Venice" lie also played charm
ing Adago by Mozart with all the intensity of feeling
and expression which he is peculiar. and which GER
tainy makes HIM unique among violinists His last
number was Paganins witches Dance" He was
thoroughly himself throughout, and was recalled again
and again after each piece.
Miss Thursby sang aria, "Non Paventar. from the
"Magic Flute" and the Proch Variations as charmngly
as usual She also sang, an encore little Scottish
song "The Maid o. Dundee" in way that surprised
every one We have been accustomed to hearing her
IN forid operatic music and in scarcely anything else,
that il was extremely pleasant to find that there was
another side to talent and that she cOud sing ballads
with very exceptional taste and feeling her rendering OF
this one was exquisite. Nine. CarrenoSaurct played a
Chopin Ballad and LISTS Fantasia on themes from
"Reoetto" and Tagapetra gave several songs, among
them a Romance from Don Carlos"

SOUTHERN POLITICS.
A CARD FROM BLAINE.


CHAMBERLAIN AppLAUDED- PACKAED's TITLE AS
VALID AS HAYEss.
Bosroy April 11.-Thc Herald will publish the
following tomorrow:
To the Editor of The Herald:
Your Columbia correspondent is in error In his
statement that | had conference with Gov. Cham
berlain in New-York | have seer GOV. Chamber
lain but for year. and that was in the private
c..Dinet-room of President Hayes, on the 9th OF
March, Nor have / written or telegraphed him OF
heard from him in any way. The same is true
respecting Gov. Packard, except in the matter OF
one telegram received from him which L
read publicly in the United States Senate.
But am sure that Gov. Chamberlain knows that he
has the profoundest sympathy IN the heroic thohgh
unsuccessful struggle he has made in South Carolina
for civil liberty and constitutional government.
am equally sure that Gov Packard feels that my
heart and judgment are both with him in the con-
test he is still wagng against great odds for the
Governorshp that he holds by n title as valid MS
that which justly and lawfully seated Rutherford b.
Hayes in the Presidential chair. / trust also That
both Governors know that the Boston press no more
represents the stalwart Republican feeling OF New
England oh the pending issues than the same press
did when it demanded the enforcement OF the L ugi
tive Slave law in 1851. Very respectfully.
