WASHINGTON, OCt jO IoISs
Agent Russell writes to the Commissioner OF In
dian Affairs from tho Mescaero Agency, under date
of October IS. in regard to the Apache outbreak IN
New Mexico, as follows:-

MRS. PRICES BABIES.
The weather was very fine on the journey
from the Grand River to Pueblo, but tonight,
when the train reached Denver, storm of
snow, sleet, rain and wind was raging.
Mrs Price and her two babies are well and
cheerful. On the train and in the stage coach
the children attracted much attention and sang
Ute songs to each other.
CRUSADE AGAINST THE UTEs.
The Denver and Colorado press rejecting
the great excitement prevalent here over the
Indian war. They want Indians killed off,
and the reservation coniiscated and thrown
open to miners and settlers. The cru
sade assumes political aspect, and will
play an important part in tho Presidential
campaign and the next Congress. The hostility
against the Indians is something unparalleled.
"No quarter" is the cry, and the only Utes who
have any show for justice are Ouray, his
wife, Chepe:a and his sister Susan,
the wife Of Douglass. Tho mines of
the Ute reservation are richer than mt first sup
posed, and the Governor will be pressed to call
out the militia to quell the war which will
follow. If the miners crowd, hunt and bush
whack as they threaten the outlook for the In
dians in Colorado is serious. The people de-
clare that they must go.

Mn. HAYES has been busy explaining

Me-. HAYES has been busy explaining
his message to Congressmen ever since
1t was read in the two Houses. He did
ask them to redeem the greenback legal
tenders In coin and cancel them. But
row he Is anxious to make every Con-
gress man believe he only suggested that
such thing might be done, although
he did not expect them to do 1t. The
Philadelphia Times says, "This is the
most unfortunate President ever heard
Of, and it takes him about one-half OF
his time to explain what he succeeds In
saying during the other. half HIS civil
service reform order has been explained
greater number Of times and in q
greater number of ways than anything
ever before heard of, until it has got TO
be too ridiculous for anything. The
President is now devoting his powerful
efforts to making his message appear as
ridiculous as possible, to the entertain
ment of the whole country"
No doubt Hayes feels that he Is q
fraud anyhow, and liable to be kicked
out of Office ii he does not do the work
his keepers expect Of him.

For Admitting Foreign Built
Ships.
From the N. Y. Herald.

From the N. Y. Herald.
Let Congress pass bill admitting for.
eign built ships 10 American registry ON
evidence that they are the property OF
bouA fide American owners. The fIesi-
dent could not veto such bill since hi,
Secretary OF the Treasury has recon-
mend-d IL. If 1t Is thought expedl-nt to
lay an import duty on ships, as Mr..
Sherman suggests, similar to the import
duties on foreign goods. the country will
not complain unless the duty shpuld be
~ high as 70 defeat the purpose OF the
bill. Such an act of legislation would
commend the democratic party to pub
hc favor A. bold and progressiv We party
willing to assume the responsi piity OF
repeating an iquated aud obstructive
laws, however venerable by age or
strongly for,ihed BY pr*jaalce. Such
an act would be powerful appeal To
national pride and interest. It would
lead to the upbuilding of our PROSTATE
navigation, and would In = few year,
put us where We were when the demo
cratic party went out Of power In l861-
| IN she front rank Of maritime Powers.
We were then second only 70 Great Brit
ain In the amount of our shipping en-.
gagged In foreign trade, and permission
to purchase ships in she cheapest mar
kes would soon reinstate us in that posi-
| tion. Al present France and Germany
are the principai rivals Of England In
| great lines of ocean steamers, and they
have risen to this sue sessful rivalry by
the permission Of the governm-i ito buy
ships wherever they can buy them
cheapest. A policy which has proved
of signal advantage To other rivals OF
England cannot Oe bad for us. Have
the democrats in Congress the courage
to move in tnis direclion? They ougbt
not to have any misgivlngs as 10 the sur
port of the country IN policy which
would restore one OF the cherished Oh
jects of natioual pride. Who would op-
pose? Not the West, certainly, which
has no interest in conflict with 1t.
would be a great point ior the democrau
to do something sensible and patriotic
which the West would approve. Ere,
trade in ships is one of the most popula
measures the democratic party coul'
adopt.

A GOOD RIDDANcE.-We were sure
the Democrats in the City Council de-
sired to get rid of the City Hospital.
But the d fficulty was how this could be
done. The matter was submitted 10 the
City Solicitor some months ago, when
an effort was made to abolish the hos
pital out right. But the Solicitor gave
an opinion that it could not legally be
doue. The GAzETTE has insisted that
its expense to the CITY should be stopped
In some speedy way, and we are graft
fed to state that this was accomplished
last night, and the City Hospital will
cease to exist on and after the first oi
January. This will save the city about
$4,000 year in expense, and cease to
detract from its credit in moral aspec,
also. At least there will be no more
defaulting bank officers dined and winet
within its walls.

A COAL AND SHIPPING DEPOT
There is now but little doubt that the
Philadelphia aud Reading Railroad
Company will have coal depot near
the mouth of the Christiana. The road
has been working this way for several
years. 1t has now two ways to the de-
sired point. 1t may come by the old
Wilmington and Reading, and secure a
part of the road of the Delaware West
ern from the point where that road
crosses the r, w. & B., and pass over
the bridge of the Christiana, near the
Walton & Whann phosphate works or
1t may obtain a charter f. ON the Leglsla-
ture and pass on down the river shore
from Hook, and thus reach The point
arrived at without bridge, and at very
little cost for construction. 1t would
then be able to supply coal and iron to
all the works that are now on the river
shore, or that are likely to be started
there. We believe that there is a char
ter now existing for railroad from the
Pennsylvania line to and beyond tht
south side of the Christiana. But tn,
easiest way, it would Sc I'm, for the Phila
delphia and Reading road to reach thu
Delaware, would be to control the Viii
mington and Northern, the old Whining
ton & Reading, as suggested above. An'
this we believe it will do, and erect
coal shipping depot south of the mout
Of the Christiana on The Delaware.
the event of The depot being placee thcr
our city would be greatly benefited.

There was one feature connected with
the late unveilibg of. the Thomas sta ue
that brought excessive modification to
those having the affair IN charge, As well
an to those who largely sympafhized
th the occasion. We refrained from
espe cial ref renee to it at the time for
the reason that it was SO vexttious that
we thought silrnce the best soloce under
the clrcumsi ances. But As some time
has elapsed, and we can speak with less
feeling, we now venture to call att.ntio n
to the fact that the citizen soldiery who
honor-d thai occasion were from the
State of Virginia, which led the van Of
secession and rebellion. We refer to this
now that we may honor the cilizen SOL
diers who made sacrifices to be present,
aud to hold them up as patriotic exam
pie to the troops of the States of New
| York and Pennsylvania, who gave as
surance of being present and failed &c
keep their pledges. The Virginia COM
paEies who were present, evidenced
their soldis ly qualities and vindicatet
their loyalty In their action, while ou

Az SECOND CLASS MATTER.

TIE letters of Mr.. August Belmont
the old New York broker and money
changer--to John Sherman, on the sill
yer question, are the boldest attempts TO
deceive the people ss to what they
should have for money, we have yet
read. Had the people not been told .
year or two ago that the remonetization
Of silver would be the opening of very
Psndora's box and fill the country with
the most dreadful const quences, such as
the return of all the government bonds
from Europe and the sending OF all the
gold there was in this country away, we
should not be 90 astounded at Belmont's
stupidity. For no man that Is not a
knave or an ass can believe that the peo-
pie of this country have so little sense
Is to believe he Is not attempting to per-
petuate the greatest fraud of his life.
He will hot see tha. in spite of all his
prediction to the contrary, that gold has
been flowing into the country as never
before-not the "cheap' silver of Ger
many and France, but geld-not the
government bonds, but gold comes IN
quantities, and, millions upon millions,
in such rapid succession, that we do not
know where to pat it or how 20 dispose
gift, not having sufficient capacity in the
miDts to recoin it as fast as we receive il
from the very countries that we are told
hold at home hundreds of millions oi
sscheap silver" Belmont fears that sill
yer will increase the price of land-thal
1t will make house sell for more and 9
bond purchase less of the fruits of labor
The credit Of the country was increased
vastly by the reconciliation of slvel
and the sale of $s0O,0OO,OOo four PEI
cent. bonds, in the face of the predictions
that the old bonds would be sent home
discredits all this man says. We hav,
no doubt that his private letters hav,
been published by John Sherman II

A Social Ciearino Ho,ise.

The Springfield Republican is OF the
opinion that q social clearing house is
now greatly needed. Starting out with
the declaration that "Among women, a
call has ceased TO be a scheme for meet
iIg people, but a tedious and laborious
way for not meeting them," that paper
continues "Tbe crying need of society
among women is clearly a plan under
which cards can be exchanged and calls
made without the risk, which now eX-
lists, OF find,ng people at home : that ca
tas.rophe which wrecks the best laid
schemes for paying ones social debts in
a single afternoon. What is wanted IS
social clearing house. The bank of New
York long since found it past their pa
tience TO go from bank to bank with
checks against each other. The accord
ingly devised clearing house where
their Iepresen atives could meet and
work off their balances by mutual ex-
change for social debts. A room ought
TO be fitted up dow II town near some
popular millinery store aud as far as pos
slbie from the neglected public library,
with little pigeon-holes marked Mrs.
A, Mrs. B., Mrs, c., and so on
through the social alphabet. A woman
with calls to pay could go there, deposit
her card in the pigeon-holes of her ac-
| quaintance, secure that she would find
none Of them 'at home.' She could &c
to her own pigeon-hole, obtain the cards
there deposited, and triumphahtly r.,
turn the call on the spot. The work o
weeks could be done in a day. Ever,
end now subserved by calls could be &C
complished at great saving of time. AL
