C5Y- President Hayes, being waited up
on by delegation from Richmond, Va,
and urgently requested not to recommis-
sion Miss Van LEW as the Postmaster of
that city, inquired whether she had not
efficiently discharged the duties of the
office The delegation were compelled
to admit that such was the fact. The
President then asked why they insisted
upon her removal, and was informed that
she offended and insulted the people of
Richmond by the bold proclamation of
her political views. Though net a voter,
she happens to be Republican in her
sentiments, and does not hesitate to say
what she thinks. The President courte-
ously bowed the gentlemen out, after
giving them a significant hint that their
kind of civil-service reform is not the
kind referred to in his letter of accept
ance or which he meant in his inaugural
address. This case is only one of
thousand illustrating the ostracism and
social prescription practiced extensively
at the South against those who boldly
avow Republican principles. II is semi
barbarous, and, indeed, the milder form
of "bull dozing," and upon certain
classes quite as effective. The Southern
people will never be thoroughly recon-
structed or in harmony with the genius
of our institutions until they cease to be
intolerant and proscriptive toward those
who do not adopt their political opinions.
Free speech for Democrats, but not for
Republicans, will hardly do for this land
of liberty-N Y. Independent.

take them to Fort Rupert for seven dol
lars each. The white men were with
out arms, and when night came and
all were asleep the Indians murdered
them and threw their bodies in the sea.
After stripping them of everything Of
value, the money in the box was divided
by the savages, who then came ON to
Victoria and spent the coin. An Indian
woman says she picked up the head of
white man on the beach at Cape Caution
few months after the wreck, and was
told to put it down again and say moth
ing about it. The officers found no
property belonging to the Wright except
portions of the wreck, which probably
drifted ashore.
With respect to the destruction Of the
village, Sergt. Bloomfield landed, and,
with three others from the Rocket, de.
manded the four men who are suspected
of completely in the murder The In
dians came out armed and refused to
give up the men. The party then secured
two of the suspected savages and made
for the boat. They were fired upon,
but got back to the ship safely. Capt.
Harris then gave the tribe six hours in
which to surrender the other two men.
After the lapse of six hours he extended
tire time three hours longer. He then
fired blank cartridges and the Indians
ran away. The village was then shelled
and afterward burned. The two men
were secured. No one was killed.

Big English, the boot-black, had hand
full of lead nickels in his possession, the
boy was yesterday interviewed on the
subject.
E" Yes; I've got nineteen bad nickels in

ply.
And what are you doing with them?"
"Holding right to 'em. You needn't
think you've got a case again me, for you
haven't"
"How did you get those bad pieces?"
Rich man, who shall be nameless-
black his boots every morning hands
me out lead nickel-thinks he's got a
soft thing on me, but I'm layin' for him"
"Howg"
Why, he's got a daughter bout my
age. I'll be thinking of marrying in two
or three years more, and I'll shoulder a
bag of his nickels, walk into the parlOr
and gently say: Mister man, love thy
fair daughter, and demand her hand in
marriage Behold the proofs of your
vile peridy, and come up to the rack or
go to the jugP You just keep still and
let him shower out his bogus coins. |

The Presidents order for the Removal
Of the Troops.

EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WARRINGTON, April 3, 1877. (
SIR: Prior to my entering upon the duties
of the Presidency there had been stationed,
by order OF my predecessor, in the State
House at Columbia, s. c., a detachment of
United States infantry. Finding them in
that place, have thought proper TO delay a
decision of the question of their removal
until could consider and determine whether
the condition Of affairs in that State Is now
such as to either require or justify the CON
tlnued military occupation Of the State
House. In my opinion, there does not now
exist in that State such domestic violence as
