" Charles Sumner had lived a few
years longer he might have been a good
deal cut up by the assault upon his
Veracity made by General Grant and
Mr.. Fish, but his continuance In this
vale OF tears would not have been
without it's compensatlons. Many OF
his theories have since his death taken
on the shape Of reality. We all rGmcm-
Der what q storm was caused by his
proposition 10 erase the names OF the
battles Of the civil war from the regi-
mental colors OF the regular army, and
how the Massachusetts, Legislature re-
sented It by o vote of censure. The
Secretary Of War has now done some.
thing Of the same kind, in ordering
that all mention Of battles shall heresf-
ter DO omitted from the Army Regis
ter. Most Of these battles were fought
during the great rebellion, but many
came along In the wars of 1872 and
l84T.8. The change was probably
made not from The pacific motives ;ha
animated Sumner, but because VI
fight 30 many battles nowadays tina
the list was beginning 10 be burden
some to the volume. All the same, !
10 q wonder that somebody has no
made q row about it, either in Con
gress OF through the prtsP.-LPh!ladel

The dispatches published in the Ore.
gonian of the 9th from Howard and
Gov. Potts have two different positions
and intentions Of Joseph, that from
Howard says that the ''hostiles are quar-.
relling and that Joseph with some of
his tribe will try to go back to Idaho
via Payette lakes and valley" That
from Potts says that Joseph with one
half of the fighting men of his force has
gone to the head of the Bitter Root
valley by the Elk City trail and will
form a junction with Looking Glass and
Whitebird near Ross Hole It seems
that there is much uncertainty about
the position of Joseph. It had become
known that soon after the fight at
Clearwater Joseph was anxious to sell
out or give away his rights in further
fighting, but Whitebird and Looking
Glass pressed him by force to continue
among TIE hostiles. An indian who
was at Wheaton's command last Satur-
day, reports that a half-breed who
knows Joseph we'll reported in Nose $
camp that he met Joseph near the Zen
dOreille Lake with several Of his band
aud talked with him, that Joser,h told
him that he had left the hostile on the
Lo Lo trail and took through the noun
tains to the Lake, that he wanted no
more fighting against the whites. He
also said that the hostiles. we're nearly
out of ammunition, had gone to Bitter
Root to buy more and to recruit their
horses.
