Col. JOHN w. STEELE, Agent of the
Post Office Department, seems to have
been the last white person who talked
with Mr. Meeker before the massacre.
Finding the Utes turbulent and violent,
he advised Mr.. Meeker to fly with his
family. Ute Jack, chief, said to him:
"Utes heap talk to me. Utes say Agent
plough no more; Utes say Meeker must
20 away. Meeker say to Utes: Work,
work, work, Ute no like work, Ute no
work; Ute no school, no like school,
No 'fraid of soldiers. Fort Steele soldiers
no fight; Utes heap fight" When they
parted Mr.. Meeker said to Col. Steele (;
~ came to this Agency in the full be-
lief that / could civilize these Utes; that
| could teach them to become self sup
porting. | thought | could establish
schools and interest both Indians and
their children in learning. Ihave given
my bestefforts to this end, always treat
ing them kindly but firmly. They have
eaten at my table and received continued
kindnesses from my wife and daughter
and all the employees about the Agency.
Their complaints have been heard pa
tiently, and all reasonable requests have
been granted them; and now the man
for whom l have done the most, for
whom ! have built the only Indian
house on the reservation, and who has
frequently eaten at my table, has turned
on me without the slightest provocation,
and would have killed but for the white
laborers who got me away. No Indian
raised his hand to prevent the outrage,
and those who had received continued
kindness from myself and family stood
around and laughted at the brutal as
sault. They are an unreliable and
treacherOus race"

NOT SO.

The Democracy, with the proverbial
wisdom that charaCterizes some Of their
leaders, seem bent on attempting to re-
store the old geological system Of finance,
with its wildcat" banks and "red dog"
shinplasters. Sturdy old farmers who
went to bed at night with well filed wal
lets, and risein the morning to find their
money at a discount of ten per cent,
have not forgotten. If that party wants
to dig pit and tumble itself into it,there
is no quicker way to do it than to advo'
cate the old system of State banks.-
Gin, Com.
1t was the Commercial and its party
that favored and sustained the State
banks and in the same hands we have
seen the greenbacks depreciate to 30 cts.
on the dollar, and used for selfish, spec
uative purposes, to such degree as to
crush business and honest industry in a
way almost without parallel in history.
Fluctuations in values are the curse OF
honest business, and it is by means OF
paper money, in the hands of knavish
legislators, operating in the interest Of
the moneyed class, that these infations
and contractions occur. 1t renders all
values and business uncertain.

DEBAUCHERY OF PUBLIC oPIN-
ION,

Are we doing our duty in this matter ?
Can the editorial fraternity, as guardians
Of the common veal, afford to longer sit
supinely by and see the foundations Of
public morality entirely undermined ?
As educators of the people they have it
in their power to provide such swift,su
and sharp punishment for this class of
offenders, as will effeCtually deter others
from the commission of similar crimes.
If our laws are Intellectual to punish
breaches of trust, let the Press 80 edu-
cate the people that he who is guilty of
one will be followed all his life by the
contempt and hatred of every right
minded individual in the land; and the
thief who steals half million from the
taxpayers, will receive the same condign
punishment that is meted out to the bur-
glar who enters house and robs it OF
hundred dollars. Until this is done we
may expect crime to be as rampant as
now for all time to come; and the cor
ruption which overthrow the liberties of
the ancient republics will as surely over
throw OURS Chicago Type FOundr.
The foregoing shows the necessity of
elevating the tone of the Press. The
public morality cannot be improved if
the public Press panders to a vitiated
taste, and shows tendency to make a
hero out of rascal, or fails TO condemn
vice in every shape, The editorial fra
ternity may do much towards maintain
ing the pillars Of public morals, by infu'
encing public judgment in the right di-
rection, so as to make the great public
sensitive upon delinquenCies, both in
public and private matters. All this
shows the Importance of the public
teachers through the Press being in all
respects what they ought to be.

Gov, GARCELoN of Maine, in his hard
money message, objected to the National
banks, as "based upon a principle mani
festly unjust, and which practically gives
to the capitalist double or treble interest
on his investment, and thereby increases
the burdens ofthe people who receive in
return no valid compensation" and be
said: 'In view of such facts, if the au-
thority to issue Treasury notes to a fixed
amount, and sufficient for the necessities
of business, under the Constitution is
clear and unmistakable, there will be no
doubt as to which method the people
will prefer" Gov. GarCelon is correctin
his inference, and certainly not mistaken
as to the preferences of the people. AS
to the COnstitutionality of Treasury notes,
they were issued under the administra.
tions of Jefferson, Madison and Jackson.

SURVIVORS OF THE BATTLE OF
NEW ORLEANS.

Apropos of the battle Of New Orleans,
it is not perhaps generally known that
there are three survivors of that famous
day living in Kentucky-notable men
all. One is Elder Thomas P. Dudley, a
man of 81, man who has been in the
pulpit nearly go years, and is in full pos
session of all his faculties, and bids fair
to continue active in his Masters service
for some years to come. He was present
at the massacre of the river Raisin, and
was at New Orleans with jackson. So
was Gen. VIM. Orlando Butler, of Car
rollton, KY who will be 8S in April. He was
wounded at the River Raisin massacre,
but survived to be paroled, and to march
by way of Niagara and New York to
Pittsburgh, thence going home on fat
boat to regain his strength, and fight at
Pensacola and New Orleans with "Old
Hickory" He was breveted major for
his gallantrY on the field, where, accord.
ing to Jackson, che displayed heroic
chivalry and Calmness of judgment" He
afterwards sat in Congress, and, going to
the war tn Mexico, was voted a sword
for his gallantry at Montery. He sue.
Ceeded Scott in command in Mexico, and
was the Vice Presidential candidate with
Cass on the Democratic ticket in lS4S.
Another survivor of New Orleans ia
Gen. Buffers elder brother, Major Thos.
l.. Butler, who will be 80 in April. He
was one of Jackson's aides, and had the
command of the city during the battle of
New Orleans. The major has Just re-
covered from an attack Of illness. With
these two brothers lives third, Richard
who is S7 They are all sons of Perciyal
Butler, the first Adjutant General of
Kentucky. A sister, Mrs. Jas. Pryer of
Covington, is still living we believe at
the age Of 81; another, Mrs. Ewing. of
Louisville, died two years ago, aged 73.
They come OF the famous Irish fighting
stock eulogized by Washington when he
toasted "The Buffers and their five
sonsl" and Of whom Lafayette wrote,
when wanted thing well done, or.
dered Butler to do it," Another of the
race, Richard, was major general, and
died with st. Clair, who refused to take
his advice on the eve of the fatal 4th of
November, 1871. 81 have some good
wine, General; let us eat, drink and be
merry" said Butler, who knew more of
Indian warfare than his chief; "for to.
morrow we die" The daughter of this
dashing soldier, Mrs. Meason, of Union
town, Pa, died only last month at the
age of96.

BELIEVES IN THE SPIRITS.

Charley Mathews, of the Democrat of
New Philadelphia, attended the Eddy
Flower seance at the College Hall last
Tuesday night, and expressed his opin.
ion that the performance of the spirits
twas as good" as he had ever seen. As
this performance was the most transpar.
ent hunlbug that ever visited Alliance and
as 1t "was as good" as Charley had ever
seen, We conclude that the editor of the
Democrst, in being spiritist, is the
most gullable Of mortals, and we are no
longer surprised that he is a Democrat.

"PADDY from Cork is the boy, sur-r,"
who refused to extend welcome to
Gen. Grant, on the occasion of his pro-
posed visit to that city. The action of
the City Council in the matter meets no
Endorsement from the Irish people either
in Europe or America. a.-AHiance Review.
Who gave the Reuiew man the right to
speak for "the Irish people either in Eu-
rope or America ?" If the Cork city
council did not see fit to go to a heavy
expense to make a great palaver over
Gen. Grant, it was their own business,
wholly and entirely, Americans should
abominate these royal honors and dis
plays, and commend the Corkonians for
their good sense. If Gen. Grant had
had good American sense, he would
have stayed at home, instead of junket-
ing over Europe among crowned heads
and admiring royalty and such stuff.

is mere mockery to tell US that system
is sound, In which ordinary foreign
exigenCies drive us to sacrifice ell ther the
quantity or quality to preserve the other.
The Ohio Idea is not confined TO the
currency alone. II embraces economy
In administration, a tariff for revenue
only, devotion to tho Constitution and
the amendments, rigid adherence to the
doctrine that all powers not granted to
Congress are reserved to the people and
the States. 1t embraces the doctrine of
the equality Of rights of all citizsns be-
fore the law, and that other doctrine, yet
more important, of the equal and abso-
lutte protection Of all citizens in all their
civil and political rights. 1t inCulcates
and enforCes that the right of suffrage
is the basis of republican government
the vital breath of its continued life
and that its free enjoyment without him
drance, or restraint or molestation, or
interference, must be assured to every
citizen Of every race in every part Of the
Republic. The right of suffrage must be
maintained in the States by all the pow.
ers of the State, because it is essential to
republican autonomy. 1t must be sus-
tanned as to Federal officers by all the
power of the Federal Government, if
necessary, because it is essential to that
distribution of political power, which is
the basis Of the Constitutional Union.
The Ohio Idea embraces also firm,
unfaltering adherence to the principles,
traditions, and organization of the Dem.
oCratiC party, as the soundest expourder
of correct doctrine, as the safest deposit
tory of political power, as the surest
agent of good administration and pro.
gressive reforms.
And lastly, if you will let me whisper
1t to you, as in the saCredless of a love
feast, 80 that the reporters will not pub
lish it; and the Republicans shall not
hear it, and no mans modesty shall be
shocked as if it applied to himself-the
Ohio idea is, that Ohio Democrats, up
holding its principles. enforcing its doc
trines and persuading to its support, can
worthily I'll all the high places of power
and honor which have been conhded to

fact of the excess of $370000000, he

SINCE the bigots of Cork insulted the
American people by insulting General
Grant, there will be decrease in the
number of Irishmen "all the way from
Cork" in this country.-RepO8itOry.
All the Corkonians did was to refuse
to give Gen. Grant a royal reception.
They remembered former insult of
Grant to Irishmen, and also remembered
his military order expelling Israelites
from his lines, in opprobrious terms.
The people of Cork did not insult the
American people, and would not for the
world, for they would be insulting their
own flesh and blood, and that they would
never do. The Corkonians believe in
free speech, and exercise it, too. All

election, for the reason, as he said, that
