Der, 1877, the red chief and his warriors, and
even his squuws, treated HAYEss embassy
with insult and contempt But that blum
dcring mission was sent long before tho
time was ripe for it, and hence made hui
initiating failure. SITTING BULL needed to
be let alone until he had felt the rigor OF
that higher latitude, the lack OF trading
privileges, the dlminuton OF the buffalo
supply, and the suspicion with which he
was regarded by the Canadian tribes.
What stands in the way of taking this
warrior at his word, when he now says he

at Fort Walsh he promised peace, and has
ever since kept it. II is true that TO reject

great Indian enemy on the border, so as to
have larger army there; II might suit the

would dare to propose. ViceAdmiral
poT1IUAN would have been an excellent
choice, but France is not rich i'm naval
powers, and there seems to be an incongru-
ity in placing n sailor at the head OF tho
Government. Thus, JULES GRfvY, Prcsi-
dent OF the Chamber OF Deputies. became
the person upon whose election everybody
seemed TO agree from the very outset.
He Is an excellent lawyer, an unusually
able and accomplished man, and n Rcpub-
lican who has proved the sincerity of his
convictions by fighting on the barricades in
1880. His abilities rs statesman have
been amply proved during the severe
trials through which the Chamber
Of Deputies has passed during his
Presidency. His only drawback is Of n
domestic nature. For years past he has
been separated from his wife. and much
more recently his daughter has got into a
scrapc with the tenor CAPoUL. OF course
these things should not affect his position
as statesman and as the head OF n Gov
eminent. Nevertheless, 1t cannot be Qucs-
toned that domestic circumstances OF this
kind will prove an Inconvenience to Presi-
dent who has to give hospitality to the dip
lomatic representatives of the whole world,
and frequently to royalty itself.

VIVA, Shall BE Done with Sitting Bull,

The HAYES Administration now has on
hand an Indian problem in which any ser-
Gus laundering will lead to war far more
terrible than either Of the three with which
it has already cursed the country. The
Teton chief who for two years has been en-
campcd beyond the Canada border, has
crossed the line. He comes, however, not
% make war, but, classifying military pre-
dictions, to sue for peace. This attitude has
so treasured and amused some OF the Wash
ington wiscacrcs that they already treat
SITTING BULL as avery contemplate figure,
and those who do not propose a policy Of
burlesquc, in replying to him, urge one Of
bravado. He and his bands are spoken of
n a gang Of tramps, who must work for
their yictuals; or, again, other statesmen
are for sending him back to his White
Mother, with warning that if he ever comes
again the soldiers will be set on him.
1t seems to be forgotten that these Ind
ians, tired Of war, and sick Of exile from
their old hills and haunts, are the same who
annihilatcd CUSTER on the Little Big Horn;
and that tlthe Of the number Of braves led
by SITTING BULL, under a Chief JOSEPH or n
DULL KNIFE ravagcd the frontiers and de-
feated the whole army, until warriors Of
their own race We're hired TO hunt them.
There is nothing in the history Of SITTING
BULL and his bands which should prevent
them from being put ON n level with other
Indians DESTROYS Of living at peace. The
battle Of the Little Big Horn is spoken Of as
the CUSTER massacre; it was an engage
ment in which the Indians suffered severely;
it began in an attack ON SITTING BULLS
lodges by the Government troops. One
reason why SITTING BULLS force was so
large there, was the issue Of a Government
order declaring that all Indians absent from
their reservation after fixed day would be
treated as hostile-an order which forced to
hostility friendly hunting parties that had
been delayed from complying with it, and
who were out by permission, under treaty
stipulations. A few months after the battle
Of the Little Big Horn, Cen MILES, who
was conducting a campaign against SITTING
BULL. met that chief in conference, and
offered terms OF peace. which, though they
were not accepted showed that the so
called CUSTER massacre was not to be
treated otherwise than as ordinary Indian
warfare. Finally, some Of the iiercest bands
that fought under SITTING BULL have since
been received, and settled on reservations.

Instructing ConkIing and Herman.

The old practice Of legislative instructions
TO Senators in Congress has almost wholly
come to an end. It played great part in
its day. In times past it caused some dis
tinguished men to resign their seats because
they could not conscicntously obey instruc-
lions to vote in q particular way on import
ant questions pending before the Senate.
Always OF doubtful constitutionality, the
practice began by and by to be regarded as
an unwargatablc interference with the
judgment of0Scnators by Legislatures in
matters with which the latter had nothing
whatever to do and so it gradually fell into
disrcpute.
But there were dignity and dccorum In the
old method, and it carried with it due re-
sponsibility In regard to members OF Lcgis-
latures, for they had 10 go upon the record
before their own constituents concerning the
matters whoroon they presumed 10 instruct
Senators.
IT, then. the Legislature at Albany think
they have any business as Senators and As
scmblymcn to interfere with the appoint
mcnt Of n Collector and Naval ON GER at the
port OF New York. and any power to instruct
Mr.. CoNKLING and Mr.. HERMAN how to vote
on the nominations now pending at Wash
ington, we advise them TO resort TO the
practice Of bygonc times and express their
opinions openly.
If Senators and Assemblymcn approve OF
the suspension Of Gen ARTHUR and Mr..
CORNELL, and tho appointment OF Mr. MER-
RIFT and Mr. BURT in their places. let them
say so in the way Of joint Legislative rcso-
buttons in the ancient fashion. and let them
instruct Mr. CoNRL1SG and Mr. KEENAN, to
vote for the confirmation OF MERRITT and
BURT and let it all 20 on the journals ac-
companied by the yeas and nays, where the
people can see 1t. This would be II more
digniiicd mode OF getting at the precise
| opinions Of members Of the Legislature,
than wandering through the dark passages
OF the new Capitol and procuring their sig
natures to "a sheet Of foolscap, addressed TO
Mcssrs CoSKLING and KEENAN,, which
might he mistaken by an Asscmblyman for
n subscription paper. or be treated with con-
tempt by the Senators to whom it purports
! TO be inscribed.

martyrdom as another bit Of free advertising
