told your correspondent that the Indian bureau
was aware that the southern Cheyennes We're

tent that we are in the way to become a nation
OF eSquireS. The title is an abSurdity here and
an American is no more entitled to il than he is
TO that OF barOnet or that of knight. To write
Sir Peter Shocks would be just as correct as to
write Peter Snooks, esquire. With the eXcep-
ton OF official titles all titles are improper in
this country. II is proper to speak of his excel
lency the Governor OF Massachusetts,, because
that is our chief magistrates constitutional
designation, but it is incorrect to speak OF his
eXcellency the President OF the United States.
for the chief magistrate OF the nation has no
such title. The plaineSt form of address is the

THE REV. DIR. THOMAS is a bother to the
Rock River OILY conference of MethodistS. He
dow n hiS hief yet he has NOT nraechoS
thing not in accord with Methodist doctrines.
He has simply refrained from teaching that the
scriptures are inspired and that there is a he'll
for the wicked. His conference voted that he
must fully declare his belief; whereupon he
made a statement In which he practically
lodged the point, but promised to carefully
avoid preaching heterOdOXy. The conference
voted TO take no further action.
