NATIONAL CAPITAL.


In the Cabinet session Tuesday a letter
from Mexican authorities was submitted by
Secretary Evarts charging that Americans
have been crossing into Mexico, stealing
cattle and driving them across the Rio
Grande into the United States. brief
discussion occurred, but no action.
The Secretary of the Treasury has issued
call for the redemption of five million $40
bonds of 1866, consols of 1865; q millions cou-
pom and p millions registered.
1t has been practically decided by Third
Assistant Postmaster General Hszsn to extend
the registry system to third class mail matter.
This change will.go into eject generally about
October LIST, and become feature of the regu-
lar postal system. r1
Assistant Secretary Howley has reported to
the President that he has made careful and
patient examination of the charges filed against
Collector Thomas of Baltimore, and the evil
dence fails to sustain them or to show that the
collector has violated executive order No. 1.
Washington was the scene of the occurrence
of little speck of war Friday afternoon, the
results of which babe fair at one time to be Sc
rious. Six white and three colored laborers
were placed at work upon the ground recently
purchased by the Government for the new
building OF the Engraving and Printing Blu
reau. About one o'clock crowd, numbering
200 white and colored men, armed with shovels,
picks and clubs, made their appearance on the
grounds and demanded that the laborers should
cease work. The pretext assigned was that the
msn were working too cheaply. They were
supposed to be getting only IS cents per day,
while the rioters demanded that no laborers
should WORK for less than $l.50 per day. The
workmen at first paid no attention to the de-
mands of the rioters to stop work. whereupon
they were assailed with stones, and were forci-
bly, driven away, one of them being seriously
cut and bruised. The crowd increased with
auxnriainr randifx and the runanr anraad

lNrEmpERAHcE IN RELIGION.

Dispatches from Atlanta, Ga, reports
that there is a remarkable religious
excitement prevailing among the ne
groes of that place. Some five or six weeks
ago revival began in one of the colored
Methodist churches. In about three weeks
it began to spread, and now has taken such
strong hold upon the fancy of the colored
population that it is almost impossible to
get any one to do job of work. Services
are held in the churches constantly-day
and highland occasionally wave of un-
usual excitement will sweep over the crowd
and there will be shouting and dancing rn-
til the actors fall in convulsions or sink
into state of insensibility. One old woman
died and just before expiring cried, "Gloryl
de Lord send his ladder for me-" at the
same time pointing upwards The attend
ants all declared they could see the ladder
Of the Lord let down from heaven for the
spirit Of the departing sister to mount upon.
After her death all the great crowd which
had been gathered about the house saw an.
giles in chariots, and could see them waving
flags and playing npon drums, Through
the window ofthe room in which the woman
died could be seen procession of angels
with waving banners. Many Of the converts
claimed to he inspired and to speak as clo-
thed with authoity from heaven So wrought
upon by this phrenzy were most of the peo-
pie that no thought was given to their tenn.
poral needs, and many cases of semi.starva-
ton are reported.

A correspondent at Bismarck writes
US letter upon the subject Of terri
torial politics and in favor of the e-clection
OF Judge Kidder to congress. The commu-
nication takes the ground that Judge Kid
der can harmonize the republican party of
Burleigh county and can draw largely from
the democratic vote. 1t holds that there Is
no Burleigh county man available for the
position-that Col Lounsberry is unpopular
and has many personal enemies in his own
party, who would bitterly oppose him-that
he is postmaster and an editor and should
be satisfied and not wander off into the
crooked paths of politics. Our correspon
dent admonishes republican friends in the
Black Hills not to incur risk of defeat by
nominating man who will be unable to
carry the election from lack of standing and
his minus quantity Of backbone. The let
ter states that the democrats of Burleigh
county are organizing quietly for a strong
fight and claim victory in advance. "Therc-
FORE" it says, 1--WE should unite on the
strongest man and stick to him, frowning
down all attempts of ambitious demagoguea
to work strife and dissension in the party
We are perfectly willing to agree with oul
correspondent that it is the business of the
party to nominate the best and the strong
est man, but down this way difference of
opinion exists as to who that individual is
and we have generally agreed to leave a
decision to the convention. As the letter
referred to contains some severe reflections
on other aspirants we do not feel like Civ
ing it place.

The instructions given by Secretary

lect locations for the Red Cloud and Spotted
Tail Indians indicate that it is the purpose
Of the department to fix for these Indians
homes which shall become permanent, with
a visw to rendering them selfsupportine
through the medium Of agriculture and
stock growing. The leading points in these
instructions are as follows:
The selsctions of land for the permanent
location of these Indians are TO be made
with their own consent having in view the
requirements of ofarability, water, timber and
scosnibility to the Missonri rivsr Or The

A correspondent writing from the Black
Hills desires to correct the misrepresentation
that Judge Bennett is no longer candidate
for congressional honors. The statement
that such was the condition of affairs came
from source which makes US think that the
wish was father to the thought. 1t came
from slums of corrupt Deadwood ring
which essays to direct political matters for
its portion of the territory and scruples not
at the means employed to accomplish its
ends. A malicious attack for base partisan
purposes from conscienceless element will
react upon its perpetrators, and Judge Ben
nett need have no fears that it will preju-
dice his case before the convention. He
will stand as we'll rs he would have stood
had it not been undertaken. 1t may even
give him increased popularity, as his high
minded qualities and steadfast integrity will
become more prominent by contrast with
the petty littleness of his detractors.

years of age at least l60 acres. The com.
missioners are instructed to explain to the
Indians that any location requiring long
wagon transportation will be improbable to
them, because all the money paid for trans
portation will come out of the money they
would otherwise receive for their subsis-
tence.
The experiment of compelling these wild
Indians to support themselves BY their own
labor will be watched with Interest and with
many missivings as to its success. Still
the result hoped for is worth the trial and il
it can be accomplished We will all be will.

A Bismarck correspondent Of the St. Paul
-Pioneer-Press reports the arrival at Bis
marck, on the Goth Of June, Of flight Of
rrasshoppers. He adds, however, that they
came from the south, and this explanation
will dispel any fear of general raid, as it
is known that the south has not produced
any considerable number of hoppers this
year. The colony reported are probably
the offspring Of few who escaped the fate
of the winged millions that last year turned
up their toes throughout Kansas. Nebraska,
Iowa. Dakota and Minnesota-the last ol
their race, who were accommodating enough,
to die without leaving any provision for q
succeeding generation. We fully believe
that we have seen the last of the grasshop.

As Indian Commissioner Hayt is now in
a portion of the country where he will be
liable to read Dakota newspapers, we desire
to call his attention to the fact that his de-
partment can save money for the govern
ment by making Yankton the shipping
point for Indian supplies instead of Sioux
City. For several years this city has been
the starting point for steamers carrying gov.
ernment supplies over upper waters, but du-
ring all that time Sioux City has been made
the point of delivery in the contracts with
steamboat owners. Supplies are there de-
livered to river contractors and brought to
Yankton by rail at river rates, instead of at
the cheaper railroad rates. On twenty-five
hundred tons of freight the saving would be
all Of $4,000, and this could be accomplish
ed by simply substituting Yankton for Sioux
City in the advertisements calling for bids.

All those who have heretofore acted, or now
desire to affiliate. with the republican party Of
Dakota are cordially invited to meet in their re-
spective counties and select delegates to repre-
sent them in this convention.
The attention Of republicans is called to the
necessity of nominating candidates for district
attorney in theirrespcctive districts, and as there
are no district committees, the territorial com :
mittee suggests that the delegates to this conven
tion be authorized to appoint committees for
their respective DISTRICTS to call conventions for
this purpose.
