1
afternoon a young girl, aged about
seventeen years, arrived at the Union
Depot by the Chicago express, on her
way to relatives at Lockport Her
name is Lizzie Smith, and she has
been captive TO tribe of the Sioux
who live north of the Black Hills for
about nine years. Her father resided
in Philadelphia and was engaged in a
dry goods store. She and other mem
bers of the family were visiting in
Western Iowa when the Sioux raided
the place, capturing her and others,
and killing her little brother. She
was taken to their hunting grounds,
and was, she says, treated we'll gener-
ally, but ill-treated at times because
of her inability to learn their Ian
guage. Another girl, year or two
her senior, was captured with her, and
the two, by conversing together, sue
ceeded in retaining their knowledge of
the English tongue. Her companion
was Miss Stewart, who was rescued
at the same time and sent to her
friends at Omaha. Miss Smith states
that party of five trappers discov-
cred them some weeks since and per-
suaded them to make an escape. This
they finally consented to do, and the
party, stealing Indian ponies, left for
the white mans country. They were
pursued four days by the Sioux, but
got off, and in time to reach Rock
City, on the Union Pacific. There
they were supplied with clothing by
their rescuers, Messrs. Welsh, Wolf, |
Schwartz, Botmeyer, and one other
whose name Miss Smith cannot recall |
1ne railway company passed her Via
Chicago, boarding her in transit and
treating her with the greatest kind
ness. The agent of the Pennsylvania
railway did similarly here, and the
young woman was sent to her uncle
at Lockport on the 4:5O train yester-
day afternoon. Miss Smith has been
SO long with the Indians that she has
acquired a few of their peculiarities,
and to the reporter seemed to, have
some Of the prominent features of the
savages. She is intelligent, consider

lieve he Is an honest man, and would like to
see hi-'NScued. But he must be either the
one thu or the other.
There is modicum of commen sense in
these suggestions. The President should
either throw overheard the dogmas that
SEIZURE has injected into his administration
and put himself in line with the Repub-
lican party, or give heed to the syren song
Of the enemy, and throw himself into the
arms Of his present wooers. 1t is due to all
concerned that he should evince this amount
Of decision of character and relieve the coun-
try Of all doubts relating to his status. 1t
must be one thing or the other. There is no
halfway house, no neutral ground between
the two parties for him or his administration
to occupy. This is clearly seen and under
stood by both parties, and it is time that
he put off his hybrid character and became
one thing or the other-a Republican or
Democrat-without hesitation or reserya-
tion. Common honesty and common jus
tico demands this much at this time. II

Song Of the Syren.

The Post was established, no doubt, for
Some purpose, but for what peculiarly, the
unfolding of itself up to the present hour
has not clearly developed. It may be to
make money but unless its ventures and
efforts in future shall exceed those of the
few past days it has lived in this troublous
world, it will pass into history and take up
its position in the tomb among its illustri-
ous predecessors, MS impecunious as II en-
tered upon its brief career. But this is not
what we started to discuss. We are pleased
to notice that our enterprising cotemporary
has taken the President in hand and is ad-
ministering to him all sorts of advice as to
what Is wsest and best regarding the con-
duct of his administration. II says, for in
stance
Just now he is in the position of desertor
half way between the two lines, and under FIRE
from both. To stand where he Is means GER
tain destruction. To go back to the camp he
hus Just LETT means punishment To push on
aud get into our lines means protection al
least.
This is, no doubt very disinterested adj
vice. The President holds in his possession
the ammunition chest and the COM
missary stores of power, and with
these his capture would =. be
very important to the Democratic party
Without them the President would be MS
valucless to that side as the yeriest tramp in
the land. 1t is plunder they want They
are lamishing for the spoils, and ii the Presi-
dent will only enter the Democratic camp
with his baggage he would be despoiled oi
it in day, and stand before the country as
poor and as offensive rs LAZARUS. Already
they assume to intimate terms to him
relating to his desertion of the party
which elected him. 1t proposes the follow
ing conundrums for his consideration during
the present recess of Congress
Does 1t not begin to strike Mr.. HAVE
family that there has beon too much scHuhi
and too little American common sense in hi
administration thus far2 Has II not feebl,
dsw ned upon him that the system OF party or
ganization, which has been good enough for
National Republican., 1877-12-19
Coalitions.

II Is now intimated by certain presses,
which, like MAcAwBER, live in the hope
that something may yet turn up to their
advantage, and which seek every possible
occasion to manifest their devotion to men
irrespective Of principle, are now charging
upon Senator CoNKLISG a coalition with
Democrats because few Democrats voted
with him to reject two of the New York
custom-house nominations where the terms
Of the incumbents had not terminated.
This is broad stretch Of prejudice to get
in a blow upon the New York Senator, but
il 10 made available and the blow is struck.
Tho papers that strike at Senator CoSK-
LING under these circumstances are of q
class who have become the peculiar cham
pions of President HAYES in all that marks
his administration with inconsistency re-
garding the principles and usages of the
party which made him President. They
forget their duty to their party and entel
upon system of man worship that excludes
every other feeling except that of sheer
sycophancy. While it is desirable and best
to sustain the President in all that is honest
and strictly Republican in principle and
policy, there is great question about the
propriety of accepting all the dogmas of the
hour as orthodox Republicanism.
Now, If it is coalition on the part Of
Senator CoNKLING with the Democrats to
have few Democrats voting with him on
peculiar question in the Senate, how much

Democrat in his Cabinet, and who has since
given more important official positions to

are thus throwing stones little more dis
cretion, for there may be glass to be broker
on the side of Executive power.

WoOing n Nightmare.

by the spectre of an ex-Public Printer. II
has informed the public that THE REPuB-
LICAN is edited by an ex-Public Printer, as
If that question had become an important
factor m the matter Of discussing the
merits or dement's of journalism. 1t has
announced that the President removed thS
editor of THE REPUBLICAN from the posi-
ton of Public Printer-when that pleas
ure was denied him-all of which occurred
months before the proprietors Of
the Post conceived the bright
idea of illuminating Washington with
their delightful presence, and had long
ceased to be news when the Post began to
