THE BEDOUfNS IN AMERICA.

The Apaches, who have given us so
much trouble - though not near 80
much, probably. as we have given them
still claim to number from eight thou
sand to ten thousand. When the Span
iards, in their search for gold in the high
lands Of what is now New Mexico, first
met these Indians they found them
proud and independent, though harm
less and even kindly. Wronged and
outraged, the Apaches at last retaliated,
and the Spaniards were never able to
conquer them. To this day they hurl
defiance at all government and civiliza-
ton. They are the Bedouins of this
continent, and are all mounted on small
ponies capable of great endurance.
These savages, fierce and untamed as
they are, do not scalp their enemies.
They are fond of smoking and of cards,
and when idle have a strange monoto-
nous chant In battle they keep their
ponies in motion, and are themselves al
ways changing position. They seem to
be Monotheists, and Montezeuma, or the
spirit of God, is blended in their mind
with some sort of religious aspiration.
They have superstitious regard for the
eagle and owl, and will not kill or eat
the bear or the hog. Rattlesnakes they
dread, imagine them to be evil spirits.
They never cultivate the soil, live prin-
cipally by pluDder, and are in the main
Informed, emaciated, and miserable in
appearance.

AS a practical issue to the yellow
fever investigation set ON foot by Mrs.
Elizabeth Thompson, that lady is
devoting much attention and giving
countenance and encouragement to a
project for proving the effects of
artifcially-produced frost in limiting
the spread of the disease. She has
taken up and earnestly supports the
proposition of Professor John Gamgee,
of London, to provide refrigerating
and ventilating ship to be propelled by
steam and filled with powerful refriger-
ating and ventilating apparatus, to be
stationed at New Orleans and moved
thence from point to point as required,
and test the effects Of the low tempera-
ture in extinguishing the germs of fever
on board of infected ships and other
localities. 1t is urged that Surgeon
General Woodwork should have means
of proving once for all, whether frost
kills or only scotches the deadly virus,
and to that end Congress is to be
asked to make the necessary appropria-
tions

at Alaska-Indians on the
War-path and Whites Terr0rized.

SAN FRANCISCO, February 16.--A Vic
toria dispatch says: The steamship Cali
fornia left Sitka February 10, and arrived at
E qusmault February IA. There was much
excitement in Sitka when she left, the In
dians having threatened the annihilation of
the whites. The citizens are armed and
awaiting their attack. The two Indians who
murdered James Brown confessed their
guilt, were surrendered to the Collector, and
are on board the California en- route to
Portland, to be turned over to the United
States District Attorney, to await the action
of the authorities at Washington. Three
families came down on the steamer, fleeing
from danger. The storekeepers are prepar-
ing to emigrate by the next steamer.
Father Metropolisky and his congrega-
tion, in conjunction with the American cit
izens of Sitka, have petitioned the COM
mander of Her Majesty's man-of-war, now
lying at Esquimault, to come to their i'm
mediate aid, fearing that they can not allay
the disturbances before the United States
Government can send assistance.
1t is rumored that Cutting & Co.'s can
merry, about four miles from Sitka, is sacked
and burned. No reliance is placed on the
IumOI, uOcduSO tuo cOApduS udNc 1uVldus
in their employ who seem TO be peaceably
inclined.
The Collector of Alaska has telegraphed
Secretary Sherman for aid. The Indians
threaten to kill two white men in retalia-
tion for two prisoners. The night before
the steamer arrived the alarm was given
through some nervous person, creating the
greatest CONSERVATION. People barred their
doors and stood ready for action. The
priests house was crowded with terror.
| stricken women and children, who could
not be induced to return to theil
homes till daylight. The steamers arriva
created more confidence, but fear began te
gain ground at her departure. The whites
are well organized, and In case they can no
conciliate the Indians will make desperat,
fight
James Brown was murdered in his cabiI
while asleep. He was hacked to piece
with an ak, and his remains thrown int
the ocean. Plunder was the incentive
Much of his property was found in posses
sion of the murderers.

Pet Dogs.

The New York Home Journal, referring
to the fashion of making pets of dogs,
says: The amount of luxurious ten
derness that is bestowed on these worth
less creatures by some of our wealthy
citizens is so astonishing as to be almost
unbelievable. tits not at all uncommon
to see a carriage, with two men upon the
box, driving through the Park upon
pleasant morning with only a dog, or
perhaps a pair of them, inside, taking a

Potatoes the Cause.

The Boston Transcript has the follow
ing: One cause of the sort of apathetic
indifference and lack of industry which
up to twenty-years ago were to be found
among considerable proportion of the
population of Ireland, south and west,
was the quality of their food. The
subject was discussed by DR.. Lyon Play
fair some years ago in his work entitled
"The Food of Man in Relation to his
Useful Work" The harmony of animal
life requires mixed food, and the habits
and character of population must depend
on the manner in which this mixture is
habitually made. The Irish peasant
who can only do labor worth seven or
eight shillings week on potato diet
could earn double or treble when well
fed. On the diet to which he was
formerly accustomed, idleness was often
times physical necessity rather than a
moral delinquency. If the potato had
become the diet of Scotland the same
defects might have characterized the
Scotch peasants, but, fortunately fol
them, their ancestors took to oatmeal.

CiDher Investigation.

The Teller Committee met again in Wash
ington on the 12th, and examined witnesses
concerning the political condition of the
South. Gen. Reuben f. Davis, of Missis-
sippi, testified that he was candidate for
Congress in the late election from the First
District. He had been informed privately
of threats to prevent him from being heard.
The idea prevailed that he was endeavoring
to reorganize the negroes in opposition to
the Democrats. After the election, he
heard he had been hung in efigy, and
then burned. He was Greenback candi.

The Yellow Fever Commission has
brought out great diversity of opinion
among doctors as to many interesting
facts relating to this dread malady.
Some hold to the "germ theory; others
do not. Some declare it to be indigen-
Gus, while Others think it imported.
Some believe it can be effectually quar-
antined; others claim that thorough
sanitary measures-local and general
cleanliness-will prevent it. Thus we
see that while much has been done, the
inquiry is not complete. The plague
holds the field. Let the investigations
proceed until we know more certainly
the cause and the possible prevention of
yellow fever. 81.
