about Brizzolari giving place 10 sympa-
thy for the wounded hero, the announce
ment fell upon the public ear that this
brilliant and promising young man had
eloped with his niece, the beautiful
and accomplished Miss Baccigalupo.
The parents were deeply grieved and
mortified that daughter and nephew
should have so disgraced their family
name, but time, which heals all ills, soon
blotted out this little episode from the
memory Of the public, if not from the
minds Of those most closely identified,
and when the elopement was almost for

"A country editor says it has agitated
his curiosity to find out why woman
will spend six weeks working a lot of
sccllops on the bottom of her skirts,
that nobody in the world but herself
will ever get a glimpse of, and then run
about the neighborhood in an old dirty
wrapper, without any belt, and every
other button burst off.

Indians Wasted.
peck's Sun.

Sitting Bull has ut last retired
from public life. He and his band
inevs Withdrawn 70 swan Lake,
eighty miles north Of the boundary
and has given the Canadian gov
crnmont assurances that they will
be good hereafter. II it said that
i'll consequence of this action on tho
part of Sitting Bull, army circles at
Washington arc very much cha
grincd and cast down. Well, they
ought to be. They might have
known, if they had common sense,
that the Indians would not last for
ever, and that if they expected to
continue the regular summer war
they would have TO be saving of
them. The fact IL, the Indians have
been wasted. With judicious man
agement, and proper exercise Of
economy, the number Of hostile In
dians that were in the country five
years ago could have been made TO
last for ten years yet. And now
they are all gone. 1t may be thata
fight or two can be picked, after
this, and that the officers of the
army will be able TO show congress
that any reduction of the army
would be fraught with grave conse-
quenccs, but ON the whole tho In
dians have been literally squander-
ed. All that arc left are q servile
lot Of cowardly ours that an Indian
agent might swindle and rob, and
western desperadocs outrage to any
extent, and they couldn't be made
TO rise and go on the war-path.
They are stoughton bottles, and fer
army uses are no better than 80
many Cinnamon. And now Sitting
Bull, the last Of the game Indians,
has settled down on Canadian soil
10 stay. Having thus wasted their
substance in riotous living, il is
hard to say what the army officers
will do. They now see what they
have done, and feel the mistake
kcenly, but II il too late. Half the
amount Of Indians that were killed
ever summer would have done Just
as well. II has been from first TO
last piece Of grossest extravaganza
and any attempt on the part Of the
army ring TO obtain an appropria-
ton from congress, for the purchase
of more Indians, should meet with
a united opposition on the part of
the people and the press.
