The annual report Of Acting Commis
sioner Marble. Of the Indian bureau, is
full Of eneouraging particulars in regard
10 the Mild and half-ciyilized tribes un-
der the tutelage Of the Uaited states.
They are making steady advancement
ia industry and education. of 255,33
Indians, exclusive u thase Of Alaska
ouly 1860 are clasSed as wild In
dams. There still remain some 5000 Of
Of the old Five Nations eonfederacy in
New York and thereaTe 10000 ChiPpe-
Was ia Michigan. Outside the i've civil
LIED tribes in the Indian Territory, who
are nov self-supPoTting and raise
large crops and herds, Tie agency lndi-
ans have l70,si acres Of land in culti-
walton, Of which y 3s3 acres were bro
ken up since the last report, and they
raised q million and a half bushels Of
grain and vegetables, besides owning
nrarly = million head Of sheep and
cattle. SIR. Marble says that the lndi-
ans ask TO have land given Ia them in
scycralty with great urgency, and lac
recommends that Congress PASS neces-
sary laws To that end. lie also recon-
mends the suppression Of polygamy, the
legalizing of Indian marriages and q
criminal code suitable to the condition
OF the tribes. Mr.. Marble reports a
very encouraging progress in education
among the Indians. There were in OPP
Grafton during the year some 60 board
ing schools and 10 day schools, accom-
odaiing 1000 pupils, while Congress has
made no provision for IL agencies,
which have $1,000 Indians in charge.
The Indians are eager TO learn, and are
learning rapidly. and every facility
should lie afforded them in this direc-
ton, as there is no other way Of fitting
them for the citizenship which must
sooner or later be conferred upon them.
The report contains a great many In
tercsiing details Of the In
which our government seeks to repair
the wrongs which-tAh Indians have
suffered at the hands of the whites and
TO make up to them the loss Of a CONT
nent.

BLAINE has had a long private
interview with Garfield and the CONVEX
sition is said To have been Of u most
frank and friendly character. 1t is un-
derstood Blaine gave his views Of mat
tiers and things with great freedom.
II is probable these gentlemen Will not
meet again until the Inauguration.
such being the case, Garfield was any
iuus 10 hear whatever suggestions Tie
Maine senator wished to make. After
their interview, Garfield was asked I,
question MS To his prospective cabinet,
and lie replied that lac should not agree
in his own mind rs To the members of
his cabinet before February. and that
lie thought that quite Don enough to
come to Il conclusion upon important
questions n OF his iniimates SAYS he

HORACE WHITE and +. w. Whit
bridge, representing the independent
republicans Of New York, presented to
Gen. Garfield an address congratulate
ing him on his election, which sealed
the approval of the principles he had
advocated, and promised him support
In carrying them out. They gave him
their support because OF his advanced
and determirel advocacy of civil ser
vice reform. They dwelt on the dan
gers Of quadriennial election of the pres
ident when spoils are the reward Of par
ty supremacy. No other government
exposes its trusted servants 10 begging
on the hazard of An election. Abuses
of half n century's growth are not re-
formed in n day. We believe, however,
public opinion is in advance Of any
reform of civil service hitherto attempt,
ed, and that you may safely establish
rules for entrance into all subprdinat,
positions, that shall make ascertainet
merit the sole test of appointment, dis
carding both partisan service and part,
afiliation from the listof qualifications
In this way u new basis may he gradu
ally formed for civil service TO rest upon
SO that hereafter, no political party IL

public Offices rs m enemy's camp an,
subject to indiscriminate piilage. i
civil service shall receive the sam

TnE attempt to take the Indian cen
sus by the %patriarchal plan met with
great obstacles. The special agents no.
titled the census officials that owing To
the Indians scattering aud their super,
stitious reluctance TO give the names of
themselves and families, they have
been unable 10 make any Roadway yet
among savage tribes and must have
more men and money. Secretary
Schurz directs the Indian agents Ia as
sist in the matter, but they do not seem
10 have obeyed very effectively. They
do not expect 10 have any reports in
this year, and II appears the attempt To
take families by name will have to be-
abandoned.

An idiot who, PERHAPS, surpasses all
rivals in memory and in the capacity to
make mathematical calculations in his
head, was recently examined before the
students Of the Medico Surgical Aeade-
my Of st. Petersburg. He is q years
old. In his youth he was noted for his
brilliant ability. but was addicted 10 the
immOderate use Of liquors, and led a dis
sipated life He was attacked by an
acute disease. When he recovered he
was found 10 nave lost all his mental
faculties except memory and the power
Of mathematical calculation. These
increased proportionately as his under
standing and power Of logical thinking
vanished. Now he is a living phono-
graph and calculating apparatus. In
the lecture room, Professor Merjevsky
requested him TO square numbers con-
tanning Eve or six figures, 10 extract
the square roots of like numbers, and so
on. All the questions were correctly
answered by the patient in a few sec
onds. No mathematician present could
do anything like it. Then the professor
requested some one 10 read poetry aloud
for several minutes, and the patient
repeated it as correctly asa monograph.
The Professor declared 10 the audience
that he was unable to explain this
psychical phenomenon. The memory
and calculating capacity Of the patient
is still growing. while in other respects
he is becoming a more hopeless idiot.
