position to the will of the people; the
swarm OF loathsome creatures who forg-
ed the successive links of the fraudulent
title are quartered In public Office from
the lowest to the highest; the moral rot
thus engendered pervades every branch
of government, loosens the compact Of
soCi .ty, destroys confidence in the sta
bihty of government or the safety Of
business, leads unemployed labor to the
contemplation of violence, and capital to
call for the man of the sword; but accept
anCe of this condition of things Is mo-
mentary peace, and implies official favor
and patronage to certain men at the
South.
Therefore, Mr.. Stephens says, we must
accept it. We must not investigate, we
must not agitate, we must not punish
the criminals, nor do anything to make
fraud odious or perilous in the future.
1t is our duty, according to this new gos-
pei of fraud, to put our hands on our
mouths, and our mouths in the dust, and
placing the foot of the usurper on our
necks, implore him to keep it there until
his appointed successor arrives from
over the water.
Such are the two principal chapters in
the public life of Mr. Stephens, But his
Democratic constituents in Georgia do
not like his sentiments, and, having no.
titled him that he can no longer repre-
sent them in Congress, he is travelling
about in the yellow chariot on an inde-
pendent campaign, in favor of Fraud

TELLER INTERVIEWED.

A Cleveland Herald correspondent in
London, Canada, publishes the following
purporting to be an interview with 0. c.
Zeller. We give it for what it is worth .
The case of @. G. Zsller, late cashier of
the National Exchange bank, who de-
camped April goth with about $45,O00
cash belonging to the bank, is brought to
mind by Fessler's act. Zeller came here
to London by the same route which Fess-
Ter traversed, and it would appear that
the latter criminal was attempting to
take advantage of the others experience.
He has, however, shown himself much
duller rogue than Zeller, who has so pro-
tected himself that the law cannot touch
him nor his money. When Zeller came
to London he registered at the Tecumseh
as al. M. Foster" but his subsequent
discovery rendered this disguise useless.
He trimmed his once long beard, how
ever, and still wears it cut short. His
wife has joined him, and his son and
daughter have visited him here. He is
very msnnerly and quiet in his bearing,
and has nothing to say to any one, hsv-
ing from the first maintained q perfect

San Francisco, July I5.-A Wall a

count of the fight at the Umatilla reser>
walton News reached Colonel Miles,
who was at Pendleton, that the hostiles
were at the reservation. He at once star.
ted for the scene with three hundred regs
ulars. After march of about six miles
and within short distance of Cayuse
Station, he encountered between four
hundred and five hundred warriors.
This was about eight in the morning.
Getting the men into position, Colonel
Miles opened fire on the hostiles who
returned it, but without effect, neither
side sustaining any injury. This was
continued without intermission until IL
o'clock, when the Indians attempted to
charge Miles lines, but were driven off,
the redskins being unable to stand the
fire of the howitzers. In the charge the
Indians sustained considerable loss, those
present estimating their dead at fifteen,
Miles casualties consist of two men
wounded, one in the arm and one in the
leg.
Shortly after I o'clock the Indians fell
back towards the mountains. This is the
first time during this campaign that the
hostiles have attempted to charge and it
shows they are driven to desperation.
During the whole fight they shot wild,
Miles object, in view of the overwhelme
ing numbers against him, was to prevent
the advance ofthe hostiles and ifpossible
hold them in check till reinforced. This
he did, although his force was afoot and
the savages we'll mounted.
During Friday the Indians completed
the destruction of Cayuse Station, which
they had partially destroyed. 1t is feared
Meachams has met similar fate. among
the interested spectators of Miles fight

took sides with neither party, but appear

The Strange Disappearance Of the Morse Settlers

QUEBEC, July 2.-The fitting out of sew
eral Arctic expeditions has recalled the
mysterious disappearance of the Norwe-
gian and Danish colonies which, first
planted on the east and west coasts Of
Greenland about the year A. D., 1000,
thrived apace for four centuries, and van
ished forever in the middle of the fif.
teenth century. The popular story is
that the Norsemen settled in Greenland
in 987. A Danish colony took possession
of the west shore, and Norwegian col
ony of the east shore of the peninsula.
They were separated by desert tract
