TO Florida TO investigate the clarg-
ca on the spot reported, jan. 81,
1877, as follows:
The ballot box and all the pare re-
lating 10 this precinct were in the hands
of Vane9 and Black, and they had full
opportunity TO commit the fraud, and
did, as clearly appears from the evil
dence, commit IL Jointly, as part OF the
faise "a and forged returns were in the
fraud was committed by Black and
Vance. They made n false return,
stuffed the ballot box with Republican
votes, made false poll list, stole votes,
sustain the fraud.
Gen. Barlow, one of the Visiting
Statesmen, exposed this scandal
Gus fraud at the time and relieved
himself from the odium which
justly attached to others, and espe-
cially to the Republican members
OF the Congressional Committee
Mark H. Dunnell, of Minnesota,
and William Woodburn, of Ne
vada-who justified the outrage in
every form and sought by pervert-
ing the testimony to sustain the
scoundrels who had perpetrated it.
After the Inauguration of Hayes
these two forgers and perurers
were appointed to office, one In the
Custom House at Philadelphia and
the other in departmental at WASH
ington.
They are holding places now, not
only In disregard of these grave
charges by Congressional Com
mittee, but also In face of the ties.
timOuy of l.. G. Dennis, the Re.
publican leader in the county
where the 2l9 votes were added,
who swore recently that he saw
Black and Vance at the work oil
forging and fabrlcating the poll
lists to correspond with the false
return they had made. These
facts are as we'll known at
the White House and to
every member of the Administra.
tion as that they themselves are
usurpers in office, and occupying
public honors aud trusts solely by
the rascality of agents like Vance
and Black, than whom hundreds of
better men are now cracking stone
in the penitentiary.

OF deserving men who for years

lures. When called upon to con-
tribute to the campaign fund he
boisterously and profanely refused

to make the most of 1t, claiming
that he had earned his position by
party services and could not be dis.

to remove him, but he vented his

propriety of returning to the river. |
1t 10 a we'll known fact that ut
least two-thiris of these Indians
were opposed to the move now In
progress. They were perfectly sat-
isfled to remain at the old Ponca
agency, which furnishes all the re-
quirements of q permanent home
for these Indians. The move was
arranged through the influence of
a few leading chiefs headed by
Spotted Tail and that influence
was purchased by traders and
frelghters for paltry few hun.
dred dollars, which went to
those chiefs. spotted Tail is one of
the most avaricious red men and is
governed entirely in his actions by
the price paid for his Influence with
his followers. A prominent mis-
sionary in the Indian country says
that with four hundred dollars he
could purchase dhe consent of the
ruling chiefs to remain upon the
river and that all their people
would have cheerfully aequiesced
in the arrangement. 1t is reported
by runners from Spotted Tails
camp that about thousand of
these Indians have already cut
loose from tho main body aud gone
OH excursi ms Of their own. There
is strong probability that a ma
jority of Spotted Tails Indians will
come back to the river before snow
falls.

The police had orders to clear the

Of matters fiscal. Our moneyed

Ia the banks of the Golden Gate

they are not. In addition to the
unprecedented banking capital Of
San Francisco, there are the pro-
tlIgious sums on deposit In the sew
eral Savings Banks. These dspos-
its exceed per capita, by two or
three hundred per cent, those of
any city of the United States. We
are informed that the Hibernia
Bank finds itself so embarrassed by
= plethora of coin that IL has lately
invested very large sums in United
States four per cents. What is
wanted in California Is an intelli-
gent interest in manufactures and
interior development. The stock
board has swallowed up the coin

so many opinions on the subject that it
has been extremely difficult to forecast
the result. Indeed, it has been regular
