SLEEPLEss persons should court the
sun. The very worst sopori6c is lauda-
num and the very best, sunshine. There
fore IT is very PLAIN that poor sleepers
should pass as many hours as possible in
the sunshine. and as few as possible in
the shade Many women are martyrs,
and yet they do not know it. They shut
the sunshine out Of their houses and their
hearts, they wear wells, they carry para
soils, they do all that is possible to keep
of the most potent influence which is in
tended to give them strength, and beauty,
and chserfulness. Is 1t not time to
cnaDge all this, and so get color and roses
in our pale cheeks, strength in our weak
backs, and courage in cur timid souls ?
The women OF America ere pale and del
lcats, but with the aid of sunlight they
may be blooming and strong,-Home

WHISKY AND INDIAN Wars
Among the alleged causes OF the Ute
outbreak, it has recently been asserted
that they we're plentifully supplied with
whisky by rancbers. IF this is true IL
furnishes an equally curious and disgust
ing illustration of CONSCIOUSNESS and reck-
less greed. The ranchers who supply In
~diahs with whisky no doubt belong TO
that section Of the community which is
always 10 favor of exterminating every
Indian tribe that goes on the war-path,
and which is always abusing the Gov
ernmsnt Ior nct protecting the frontier
settlers better. They are, of course, per-
fectly we'll aware that whisky makes In
-6ians mur ierods, and that the more they
drink Of Il Rle greater is the probability
that thy will commit some outrage -.
They may Dven be supposed to know that
q drunken Indian i: as likely TO scalp the
man ~ao sold him the whisky as any
body else, and that they are risking not
only their own lives, but the lives oftheir
'"lfoo auu l)uL UOut Vi lDeSO
considerations have any weight with
them. The Indians are ready to trade
with them for the whisky, or to pay them
cash for it, and their greed overcomes all
cautions and browns all scrupes. II is
to such sordid and sou.less hueksters that
we owe half our Indian wars. 1t is such
greedy wretches that deliberately foment
trouble W ith the Indians for .he sake Of
making market for their beef and corn.
Tho massacre of military detachment
makes no impression on them. II the
Indians are ever turned over to the War
Department it is to be hoped that these
fellows vii be looked after sharply, and
punished with military sternness and en- ?
ergy whenever detected selling whisky TO
1ndians.-Rec07d- Union.

Mr.. CHRISTIAN X. Ross, father Of the
missing Charley Ross, recently received
an anonymous letter saying a man
named Cachnour in the Ohio Peniten-
tiary knew allabout Charley's abduction.
He was interviewed and told an appar-
emily straight story. He said he had
been a detective and Texas ranger. but
he evades direct questions. Hs says hs
had the missing boy in Virginia on June
7, 8, 9and 10, in the year 1877, but re-
fuses to designate the place. He says
further that he was one of a band of
eighty~four men organized tor the pur-
pose of conoealing Charley and keeping
him out Of the hands OF detectives.

tney were no' mefcenafy troops,
their services being conditioned
upon their pay. The army did its
whole duty nobly, and when Con-
gress assembled in the fall, the Dem
ocrats were 50 ashamed Of their
ueanness that they made all possible
haste to pass the Army Appropria
ton bill. They scampered down the
bill with greater haste than they
marched up it. If they wish to dis
grace themselves by repeating that
policy, they have the power to do so.
We are not SO sure, however, that
the President would allow them to
escape the hea, of Washington Ivy
Adjournment now as he did
then. He certainly ought to say,
in effect, to Congress, No adj
journment without all the regular
appropriations. He has the power
to do that and he surely has the
requisite back bone. He has shown
himself to be remarkably firm in his
loyalty to conscience. For a long
time he hraved the enmity of his
own party, and now he has the easier
task of Drawing the hostility OF the
opposition. When duty calls he
seems determined 10 go, but who
will oppose? We may expect, there
fore, that the members of Congress
will be kept at the Capitol unity
their necessary work is done, if it
takes until the beginning OF the next
regular session.
Ben Hill relieved the interim Of
suspense between the passage and
the veto of the second Army bill by
long speech, in which he claimed
that the South was always 'truly
loyal" and the suppression of the
rebellion was really due to the
Northern Democrats. His speech
was absolutely grotesque in It's alb
surdity 1t was a marvel Of indis-
erection. When the iull text comes
to hand, it will repay careful perusal
as hurting out OF the real animus
Of TIE Southern Democracy. 1t
would hardly be fair to pronounce
specific Judgment on the strength
of Geographic report. 1t may be
said, however hat the general drift
and nature of the speech is thor
ughly disloyaed aud deeply sugges-
tive of breakers .

comments of the veto, the Chicago
Jotn7aH has this to- offer: "rhat the
Pr sident had decided to return this
bill without his signature is hardly
more generally conceded than that
he expected to sign il. When he
supposed that it was simply a re-
striction upon hayonet Interference
at the polls, he deemed it simply u

1t is fortunate thing Tor the party
that he was thus inclined, for it
shows that he has no wish TO over

What he will not do is this: He will
not sign away national authority to

THE Advent lunatic, Freeman,who
the other day, at Pocas>ett, Mass,
sacrificed his little child upon an iln-
provised altar, says shat he had
nothing to do with the case at all !;
that God alone is responsible; it was
he who directed his hand and infiict-
ed the fatal blow; he does not IN
derstand why God inipellec him to
do the deed, but, said he, "His ways
are not our ways. They are iuscru-
table" "God is responsible" is the
after-cry of nearly every murderer
who seeks to extentuate his foul
deed. By parity Of reasoning,
God is, no doubt, responsible for ev-
erything that transpires on this
earth. He is responsible for the
laws which decree the punishment
OF murderers, Therefore, let those
who take human life be hanged
therefor. Possibly those contem-
plating murder, and anxious to
charge the deed to God, would be
deferred from biood-letting if they
knew that God would be responsible
for their punishment. 1t is poor
rule that won't work both ways.
