sCHURZ TO BE SENT ABROAD.

Reports from Washington indicate
that Morton's wishes are to be con-
sulted in disposiDg Of Schurz, who.
after brief period 10 the Cabinet, Is
10 be sent ON a. fereign. missien. 1t
appears that his appointment to sue
coed lack Chandler was the result OF
little political move ON the part of the
Hayes managers. Hayes was accused
of being a Kuow-Nothipg. and to prove
that he has eschewed such proscriptive
principles he has appointed Schurz to
one of the highest positions in his gift.
with the understanding, it appears.
that he is to resign in few weeks and
be sent ont of the country.

There is some talk of a change in
the Commissionership of Indian, AZ
fairs by men who want the place. but
that the present Commissioner, John
Q. Smith, will remain at the bead of
that department, may be judged from
the fact that he was recommended for
the place by Hayes.
The Senate Committee on Privileges
and Elections has resolved that VIM.
Pitt kellogg is prima facie entitled, to
be admitted from Louisiana. and that
the oath be administered to him. This
motion was carried in the committee
by strict party vote. as follows: Yeas.
Morton, Mitchell, Wadleigh, Mcmillan
and Hoar; Noes, Salisbury. Merrimon
and Hill.
Washington dispatches say there are
the best reasons for believing that
Schurz will not remain in the Cabinet
a mouth, bat will resign to accept q
foreign mission as soon as be enjoys
for short season the honors Of Cab
ihet position. 1t is asserted that he
was appointed to show the Germans
that If Hayes has been Know-Noth-
ing. he does not now adhere to the
principles of that party.
The Brooklyn, New York, Board of
Aldermen since their election have
been unable to organize, owing to the
obstinacy of the members. who stand
equally divided politically, and the
persistency of the man who holds
the balance of power in always
voting for himself for President of the
Board Yesterday afternoon they
agreedto appoint an electoral commits
sion to decide the vexed question of
who shall be be Presidentof the Board.

Col. Bob Ingsrsoll. the goddess apos-
tie of Radicalism is at loss to know
where he is politically. During the
ssrnpaign, he was in the pay of the
National Republican committee as a
stump speaker. He carried the bloody
shirt at the mast head, and was untir-
ing in his denunciations of ex-rebels.
lie respectfully asserted that the
southern States had no rights which
Republicans were bound to respect;
that they were only awaiting an
opportunity to renew the rebellion, and
shsy and their Democratic allies in the
North could not be trusted. Such
harangues were delivered in accordance
With the programme Of the Hayes
managers, who relied mainly for sue.
osss upon the prejudices thus created
in the minds of Northern people, and
she ability of Southern Returning
Boards to subvert the will of the
majority. Ingersoll was not success
full. but the Returning Boards were.
end now Colonel Bob, who preached
Radicslism according to the instruc-
tons of Chandler. finds himself at sea
politically. and .wonderingly inqairiDg
what has become of his party. He
finds Hayes endeavoring to make
amends to the South for the iniquities
of the Returning Boards which made
him President. He sees an ex.rebel

LETTER FROM ALTURAs COUNTY.

ATLANTA, l. T., February 81, 1877.
Ed WoRLD:-Our little town has
been more lively than usual the past
week. This is without doubt one OF
the rayest little camps on the coast.
The Monarch company is sinking
two shafts on the Atlanta lode and
are taking out rich ore.
The Buffalo company have a large
amount of ore on hand, and their new
mill will soon be in running order. IL
il the best mill in the Territory.
Several hundred feet on the Atlanta
lode have been bonded to San Francis
20 men, and the chances are that sew
eral other companies will be here this
spring.
The business houses here all appear
to be doing we'll, and there is plenty
of Jacobs Best left yet.
Ouite a number of men here are
preparing to go to the Black Hills.
There is scarcely any snow, ana tut
weather is warm. Pioneers say thu
is the miIdest winter they ever saw

A BoAT's Crew ATrAcBED By Saw
AGES. The log of the bark Stonewall
jackson, of Boston, which left New
York for Yokohama, Japan, on July
Sd last, gives an account of marrow
escape of portion of her crew from
savages on Omhay Island, in the Ma
lay Archipelago. On Novembes Sd,
being within three miles Of 0mbay Is
land, the second mate, with boats
crew Of eight men, was sent ashore
Tor water. The single passenger,
friend of the captain, from Boston, al
so went ashore. The men landed, and
at first discovered no signs Of life any
where, but while looking for good
place to shelter the boat they were
surrounded by hundreds of natives
perfectly naked. The chief laid his
hand on the passenger and began pull
ing at his shirt, and the other natives
| took hold of the crew and did the
same. Seeing resistance was useless,
the men gave up their shirts, and then
the natives began dancing around and
fighting among themselves for the
shirts, while some grabbed the mems
knives. The passenger and second
mate discharged their revolvers
among the savages, who fed to the
woods, leaving on the ground bows
arrows and clubs. The men ran to
ward the boat, but some of the natives
started after them, and with large
stone stove the boat. The men, how
ever, soon got the boat ont of thei1
reach and to their vessel.

The downfall and destruction of a
nation is not entirely contained in its
inability to cancel its obligations and
indebtedness to foreign powers; or
when it is laboring under the accumu.
lating responsibility of debt, contract
ed during siege of war, when per-
haps it has suffered an ignominious
defeat and disaster, when it's capital
and state-house are the scenes of per
petual strife and warfare. These may
be all powerful causes for the appre-
hension of the downfall Of any nation.
These may make the bravest hearts
tremble for the preservation of their
liberty. But yet there are other causes
all powerful for prosperity and infu-
ence of country for its future great
achievements, which every nation
looks forward to with hope when it
will be the ruling spirit of the world.
Yet, what win it amount to? what
great end will it achieve, if it's honor
lis lost? for the life of people is in its
honor and integrity; when it is once
gone it is gone forever 1t is like a
soul scared with the deepest of sin,
when its fair pages are blotted and
stained, the sin may be forgiven, but
can the scars be forever erased? God
may overlook them, but the world will
not. When once fallen, it never can
regain it's former lofty heights. Thus
a nation is, when once accused and
mistrustcd of falsehood and dishonor
when once it is looked upon with sus.
picion; when it is written upon the
: walls of its capitol, "Thou art weighed
iu the balance and found wanting
! when guilt and crime stalks abroad in
D high places, without deigning to cover
e up their acts with the mask of limo
/ cence; when the officers filling the
d highest positions accept brides anc
even periure themselves for their OWL
gain; when the country is reeking il
e blood of her slain, and wars desola

@ Iris a little difficult just at the present
writing to locate the hostilcs. They had
crossed to the south side of the Yellowstone
when last heard from, and it WAS thought
would come down on the valley via Clark $
Fork or Still water. just where they will
turn I'D next it seems almost impossible to
tell. Some of our contemporaries think
they are completely henmcd in, that there
are three or four divisions OF troops marcll~
ing from different directions. and prophecy
their speedy capture. We do not anticipate
anything of the kind. They are by no
means effcctually hemmed in. Should they
determine to cross to the north bank OF the
Yellowstone, which is their most probable
course. we think they will have no difficulty
in doing so. 1t is not at all probable tllat
Gen. Sturgis, with only six skeleton COM
punics, can guard such an extent OF country
and prevent their passage. Should they
meet with him near the mouth of Clark's
Fork or Saltwater, there is nothing to pre-
vent their returning up the Yellowstone and
passing out via the Shields river and down
onto the Muscleshell, or through the Smith
river valley, as they may choose.
The Indians seem to be we'll aware that
they can travel where they please through
the settlements, and their not doing SO can
only be attributed to their desire not to
arouse the settlers to wage war upon them.
Should they desire to go towards the Black
Hills, we think they VIII find sufficient room
to pass, unless the government troops move
with greater rapidity than usual.
