VIZ notice that the President has up.
pointed Gen. B. F. Kelley Superintendent
Of the Hot Springs Reservation in Ar.
kansas and that the General has accepted
the appointment twill be remembered
that President Grant appointed Gen.
Kelley to the charge Of the Indian agency
at Santa Fe, New Mexico, just before the
close Of his administration, and that he
declined to accept the appointment. The
present position ia one nearer home
within the bounds Of icivillEation, ,as 1t were
in fact an inviting appointment. The
Hot Springs is great resort for people
afflicted With various diseases to which
flesh is heir, and we have, no doubt the
society gathered there makes it pleas
ant spot whereat to enjoy the honors and
emOluments Of an official appointment.
We therefore congratulate the General on
hi, good fortune, and hope he will have a
pleasant time down in Arkansas.
