few days ago a medicine woman OF
the Piute tribe of Indians, was shot
to death for failing to cure a sick
child belonging to the chief. This
was the third case Of Indian justice

American Pride.


 We may we'll be proud of what we have done; but if we cannot govern ourselves-if we cannot give to every man his rights-if we cannot operate the machinery of the free popular gov ernment which has been our principal boast-all this goes for nothing in the establishment of the national honor. We can be the richest, most comfort able, most prosperous, most intelligent and benefcent people of the world, if we will. There is no limit to our wealth or our influence, but such as our weak passions and selfish demagogism may build before us. If we cannot be proud of our government, of it's justice, it's aggregated and consolidated powers, it's easy and safe adjustment to circum- stances, it's stability and it's purity of administration, it will be we'll to put boasting far away from us, and to ac- knowledge with shame. rather than proclaim with pride, that we are Americans. If we are to drift into rev. olution, or even into danger of it, with every diticulty, we may we'll hang our heads before the disgrace of the Eng lishman's scOrnful laugh, and the greater disgrace of the Frenchman's fraternal sympathy. -Dr. /. c.

Victor Emanuel's Guards.

Although Victor Emanuel is physi- calIy vigorous, rising every morning at five and taking stroll in his garden before breakness, he is not without superstition. He had not been long in the Quirinal Palace before he discovered a trap in his bedroom. It communicated with vast gallery, in which the King and his attendants walked for twenty minutes without finding an outlet. It seemed however to lead to the castle of St. Angelo. His Majesty declined to investigate the matter, and ordered the trap door to be bricked up.
 Soon afterwards he discovered a secret door in the wall which communi- cated with narrow staircase leading to the roof. It, too, was bricked up, but since this discovery, we are in formed, that whenever His Majesty sleeps at Quirinal two huge black dogs also sleep at the foot of the royal bed. They obey no one but the King, never bark; and would strangle, without any parleying, the first person who entered ! the room.
