THE CHEYENYE OUTBREAKS

Evidence begins to accumulate that our
first superstition as to the cause of the
Cheyenne outbreak was correct, viz: That it
was due to lack of proper sustenance
through the shameful diversion of supplies
from their proper channels by Indian agents.
An officer who has just died from wounds
received in fight with the Indians, wrote q
letter previous to his death in which he
states that his observation had convinced
him that sheer starvation had driven the
Cheyennes upon the raid. For months thew
had not had proper food, and what they did
receive was of a very inferior quality. So
great was the restitution among them that
they had been driven to eating the flesh of
horses which had died from disease or other
causes. Gen. Pope confirms this testimony
in the most emphatic manner, at the same
time remarking that he has frequently
called the attention of the authorities to the
lack of proper rations for the Indians.
There can be no valid excuse for this
state of things. The appropriations for the
support of the Indians have been ample for
all legitimate purposes. They have averaged
about five millions of dollars annually, with
out reckoning the million or moro derived
from interest on funds invested for their
benefit. The salaries of the seventy-four
agents amount to round hundred thousand
dollars year, which leaves handsome sum
to be distributed in clothing and food.
There need be no deficiency and there is no
deficiency in the funds for this purpose.
The truth of the matter is that the affairs Of
the Indian bureau have been grossly
mlsmanaged and the rations issued to the
aborigines dishonesty misappropriated by
the agents and others connected with the de-
partment. No other explanation is admis-
slble under the circumstances, for no other
explanation will account for the fact that
with an abundance of provisions appropriate
ed for the maintenance Of the Cheyennes,
they have for months been in starving con-
dltion. We cannot expect that the Indians
will remain on their reservations with starva-
ton staring them in the face. The most
doclle of our Domestic animals will not do as
much. Under the circumstances they were
justified in leaving their reservation in search
of food. That they committed murders and
rapine in their course is much to be regretted
and deplored but not to be wondered at.
It is clear that something must be done to
remedy the grave defects that are every day:
coming to light in the management of our
Indian affairs. Fraud appears to be the rule.
not the exception. Even though man
may have borne spotlegs reputation through

life, it seems that the moment he becomes
an Indian agent he becomes tainted with
corruption. Some earnest efforts have been
made to correct the abuses by the interior
department, but for one cause or another they
have proved abortive, and corruption yet
stalks openly at almost every supply post and
agency in the land. Unless the interior de-
partment shall prove itself competent to deal
with the plunderers subject to its control,
Congress must try the experiment of entrust-
ing the management of the Indians the
war department, which gives promise of
ability to administer the trast honestly.

Two heightened thieves got stheir just
deserts on Monday, Hathaway, of Fall River
notoriety, being sentenced to ten years in the

defaulting cashier of the Merchants Ex-
change bank of New York getting five years
at Albany. A little more of this treatment
will have Statutory effect, and induce those
confded with the money of others to little
more honesty. Chicago has dozen or more
such rascals in her borders, but as yet it does
not appear that any effort will be made to
punish them.

The yellow fever is now prevailing at near
" hundred cities and villages in the South.
Never before, we believe, has the disease
spread over so wide territory. The deaths
as far as reported up to date exceed eleven
thousand. The negroes who have focked to
the supply depots for free rations have car
ried the disease, which had been confined to
the river bottoms, some two hundred miles
inland, and much restitution, suffering and
death are anticipated in consequ ence.

have not seen anything in your
valuable paper, except one or two letters
from Wcllsburg By canon" very good,
but not much of them (be evidently don't
VISIT the country much), since last spring,
when high official among the Changers
gave you few notes of flying trip
through the county. He saw nothing
but the winding Buffalo creek, saw not
the heavy laden heads of wheat noddiLg
TO him from the hilisides, heard not the
sweet music TO the Changers Of dark
green blades Of the heavy laden
corn covering our rich bottom
lands waving him welcome, his head
had gone ~ wool gathering" as we
country folks call it. HIS whole stten-
tion WAS fixed upon wool. The click OF
the shears WIS heard in the land, and he
was anxious to gather what he could into
the wool house at Steubcnville. THIS
work has been partial success, and we
hope may do more good hereafter. So
far it has probably done more for those
outside than for its patrons. No doubt,
by its establishment, farmers who sold
realized better prices than they would
have done.
Since that tine farmers have gathered
in the most bountitul crop OF wheat,
oats, corn and potatoes they have been
blest with for many years
The hog crop is still being harvested,
and though the price is very low, it is
the best way we can get our corn
to market, Our old friend I'm
Gle Billy Hlnkslon takes cargo
to your city about once week and
gives the farmer "evcry cent they will
bear" The growing wheat crop in this
section of the county is in splendid coz
dition and the acreage nearly double
that of last year. The farmers are look
ing to their interests. Labor is cheap and
plenty and there will be moro land Gull

PARKERSBURG, January 90.
While our daily reports from Marietta
show that tho great revival work there,
load by Mr.. Hammond, is continuously in.
cressing nightly in depth and breadth,
the meetings go on here day and night,
with a steady, satisfactory success that rs
Yet allows no thought of rest from labor
u tho earnest workers. While the field
continues so white to the harvest, the
lborers dare not turn away from the
bending grain.
The meetings sre conducted as usual,
in u manner certainly satisfactory to the
most conservative ideas At Z o'clock
the sacred music begins, and successive
hymns are sung till the house is filed
and packed down, as it were, into quiet.
Then comes the reading OF Scriptures
with comments, followed, msybe, By 8
ing to give their Observation-Disclosures By
short sermon, with prayers and
singing between all these exercises.
The sermon is closed by an appeal TO
tho unconverted, and an invitation to
the anxious who desire the prsyers of
Christians, to rise during the singing Of
verse. During the week past shout
ono hundred, on an average, have night
ly asked for prayers-msny OF whom
being converted, their places are nightly
supplied by others becoming anxious.
AS for excitement, l have as yet, found
TO one who has attended the meetings,
willing TO hazard his reputation by sd.
vsncing such charge. A few pretend
cd infdels and scohers, who never 60
near, express betimes their surprise, when
some of their skepticsl friends, being con-
WINGED, come out on the Lords side, that
men and women Of intelligence and free
dom of thought. like their friends, should
be carried away by this wave of excite
ment, as they are pleased to style WHIST
they are afraid to 60 and witness.
