Some Very Good Indians.

Father Wilbur, formerly Methodist
missionary and for years agent at the
Yakima Indian Agency, in Washing
ton Territory, gives an interesting ac-
count of the Indians under his charge
in letter to the Department, dated
October9. These Indians, now number
ing 3,64O, were taken from the war
path in 1856 and gathered upon the
agency in 1860. They were then poor,
but they now have, according to Father
Wilbur's figures, 1000 head of cattle.
LOO horses, 5000 acres of land under
cultivation with 10000 acres addition
al fenced in) and raised this year A.
900 bushels of grain; besides making
100000 feet of lumber, 10000 shingles,
etc. The property of these Indians is
estimated by the agent to be worth, at
a low valuation, S433, 900, equal to
s119 per capita, or about 5000 for each
family.

see, by the signs of the times, evidences
of the great disasters in the immediate
future. The excessive heat, the unex-
ampled cold, the prevalence of flood
and disasters at sea, the general failure
OF the potato crop, the widespread
chill fever among human beings, and
the equal prevalence of the epizootic
among animals, are mentioned as
among the premonitions of the rapidly
approaching perihelion. To be fore
warned is to be forearmed.' Accidents
excepted, we know very well that the
persons of more vigorous constitutions
and more hygienic habits will have the
better chance to survive whatever adj
verse influence the extraordinary peri
helia will occasion. 1t is well known
to physicians that, in all pestilences,
plaques, typhus, smallpox, cholera,
murrain, etc, the Incorporate, the dis
sipated. and those whose sanitary con-
dition was bad, furnished the victims. -
This means that people should put
their house in order. Cities should
clean their streets and alleys and get
themselves ready for the worst. Indi.
viduals should live temperately, and, in
every way prepare themselves for the
ordeal. 1t may not come; but in case
it shall not, the world will be all the

LETTER FROM JOHN RAY, COUN-
Sell FOR ANDERSON.
He Says Writ OF Error will Probabl,
be Obtained.

NEW YORK, February II. Hon. John Ray,
counsel for Wells and Anderson, writes f. ON New
Orleans TO Messrs. Skeabarger and wilson, ad
visory counsel, as follows:
Gentlemen II received your TELEGRAM snpgeet-
IN the Importance OF making available federal
question in our proceedings IN the case of Gen.
Anderson. This we will do, and note the partic-
ular point you suggest. There is no doubt but a
writ Of errsewill be obtained from the supreme
court of the State, on the question of removal.
We Will throw in all the other federal questions
we can. The difficulty with is that under our
state constitution and statutory law after convic-
ton the arrested cannot be balled, and remains in
jail.
The case cannot be executed until the final de-
clslon OF higher courts, but the prisoner remains
III custody without right to give bail. This then
makes more delay OF less importance, although it
Will be some relief, as the party III the mean time
cannot be sent TO the penitentiary. The convic-
ton OF Andei son aud the entire board Is fore
gone conclusion, anu nothing can save them if
they are tried by the State court.
1t makes no difference what the law and what
the evidence may be- Public pre- judce, aided by
the Manipulation of state law in procuring jury
MAKES convection certain that they have no
chauce. Under the statute and civil lights bill
this question eau be solved 10y the Supreme Court
OF tue United States, on a wit of error from our
supieme court, but III the meantime you see the
consequences. " e are 10 a bad condition aud no
help hope.
Anderson IS as innocent of crime as if he had
never been on the board, yet he has been convict
ed. God help us.
