Sitting Bull Is reported as having made h

Sitting Bull is reported as having made his
appearance In the neighborhood Of the Black
Hills with several hundred lodges. His
braves are said TO be well armed with needle
guns of the most improved patterns, and to
have an abundance of ammunition. OF course
it Is impossible for these miserable. half
starved savages that have spent the winter in
the far North. to have had the means Of max
ing these costly purchases from traders, and
they have procured them from tho Indian
ring beyond all question. There should be
some way Of preventing these yearly re-or-
ganzations OF the Sioux for the murder Of our
frontiersmen and the devastation OF the Dor
der. This traffic in the blood Of such men az
Custer should be put an end to. and that 1t has
continued SO long, from year TO year, Is dis
grace to our government. Those who are
engaged In II, and all are who assist in arming
these blood-thirsty savages, are all guilty Of
crimes Of such horrible atrocty that there is
scarcely name for them. Is there no way to
discover who they arc and visit on them the
vengeance they deserve, and ut the same
time put an end to their nefarious trafIic2

accessibility. From these lands the State
now realizes almost nothing, for the reason
that they yield nothing to their owners and
are to them but q profitless burden. They
are assessed now at mere nominal values, and
even then the taxes upon them are eytprted
with the utmost difficulty when paid at all !;
but so soon az this road reaches them they
will be given an actual, appreciabIe, market
value which must rebound to the benefit of
the State in the same ratio that they become
valuable to their owners.
1t would indeed be terrible calamity to
every material interest Of this State should
the Supreme Court feel itself obliged to re-
fuse the mandamus in this case, and VIC can
only hope that such will not be the case II
would be hard indeed should the law forbid
arbitrarily the issue of these bonds, from
which benefits alone arc promised to all con
eerned- to those that give not less than TO
those that receive Truly they have quality
that is not strained.

Mr.. Hayes having appointed MIR. George l..
Smith Collector OF this port, 1t now remains
to be seen whether or not the Senate will end
the agony and confirm him. Everybody has
become Disguised with this affair, which has
become subject of ridicule throughout the
land and disgrace to the Administration.
We have long ceased TO hope that this impor-
tant Office would he conferred on any one ac-
ceptaple to the public here, and so we are
entirely Indifferent now as to who Is appointed
or confirmed. Among the worthless from
whom the President was evidently determined
to select we had and have no choice. II ia
variously charged that Mr.. Smith will be the
partisan of Anderson. the friend of Warmoth
and the ally of Packard. From what we
know Of him we are disposed TO think he will
be very decided partisan Of Geo. j.. Smith.

short time ago the local signal officer Mr..
Simons. at the desire Of many OF our mer-
chants, applied to tho chief signal officer Of
the army for permission TO establish a
cautionary signal station at Port Eads. The
chief signal officer delayed action on the ap-
plication; but we learn that First Lieut. John
Mcclellan, Of the United States Artillery, act
ing signal officer and inspector United States
army, who is now In this city inspecting the
local signal Office has intlmated that the
chief signal officer is favoraby disposed to-
ward the project, for the additional reason
that a station at that point would be OF great
meteorological Importance. Our merchants
ought to endeavor to secure favorable re-
port from Lieut.. Mcclellan. who. we under
stand, LIS very favorable inclined already.

In the debate in the Senate the other day
suggestion was thrown out that, II followed,
might prove great saving to the govern
ment. 1t ls well known fact that the esti-
mated maximum cost of any public building
generally falls short about 10 per cent Of be-
ing its real cost. Thus In building the New
York Postof1ice, Congress limited the amount
to be spent on that building to So, GOO. 600. The
amount was spent and the building far from
completed. New York asked for another
ss,00O,Oo0. This also was given. but Congress,
at the same time, announced that no other
appropriation would be made for this build
ing under any circumstances The second
$3,0o0,00O failed to complete the postof1ice, and
Congress after having made these two pledges,
appropriated another million, then another
million, and wound up by making the total
amount spent on this S90O,000 building
$s,7O0,oOo.
1t was the same story with the Boston post
Office the same story with every public
building ever erected in this country.
"After the whole appropriation for any pub
lie building has been spent without COM
pleting it." said Mr.. Beck. tho appeal Is al
ways made to us to finish the work other
wise we would lose the money"
II would, perhaps, be we'll il tho govern
ment did not always show itself weak in this
respect. If q million dollars is appropriated
for building, and if a pledge Ia made that it
will be built for this amount, let the govern
ment stop with its work when the million ia
spent, and leave the halfoompleted building
as a monument to its architects and origina-
tors. The State of New York has done this
very thing. and found it advantageous and
paying. It began to build new State House
at Albany, to cost only s6.oOc.ooe. The
amount was spent, and the building was only
