Captain r. II. Pratt. U. s. A., in charge of
the training school for Indians at Carlisle
Blrracks, Pa, made an interesting statement
TO the House Committee on Indian Affairs
yesterday relative to the success of tho school,
In October last ho brought from the West l4O
Indian children, representing eleven tribes
and began their instruction in the rudiments
Of civilization. All readily adapted them.
selves to their changed mode of life, and dis
played an unexpected and unusual aptitude in
receiving and retaining instruction. Many of
them read aud write quite we'll, and are
doclle and tractablc. They have printing
press in operation, cultivate twelve acres OF
land, and three of them have been put to
learning trades-blacksmit carpenter and
painter, Numerous applications Tor the nd,
mission OF other Indian children have boon
made. Spotted Tail desires to send 800 in tho
spring.
A bill Is now before the committee provid-
ing for the utilizing of vacant military posts
for like schools, aud meets the approval of tho
committee, who will submit report to the
House pointing out the failure of all attempts
to educate the Indians by establishing schools
on tho reservations 1t further suggests that
the true solution of the Indian question lies
IN the establishment of schools similar to the
one at Carlisle. A committee of Congress will
probably visit Carlisle during the present scs.

SAN FRANoIsco, June 21.-In the case OF
l.. M. Kalloch, charged with the murder OF
Jhas. De Young, a motion was made to-day
to discharge him from custody, on the
ground that he could not be put in jeop-
ardy twice for the same offense. The mo-
ton was denied by the court.
The Supreme Court to-day rendered a
decision declaring the Mcclure Charter
unconstitutional, on the ground that il
does not fall within the definition OF general
laws.
L. M. Kalloch, as a result Of the exami-
Chas. De Young, was held to answer this

MARE ISLAND AND MINING DE-
BRIS

Representative Whitthorne, of Tennes-
see. the very able and efficient Chairman
of the House Committee on Naval Affairs,
has submitted o carefully prepared report
in relation to the condition of the waters
about Mare Island, and the consequences
of the mining debris upon the approaches
to the Navy Yard there. He views the
situation as serious, and recmomends the
survey and examination of the causes of
the difficulty by naval engineers. The
report states To make such a Navy
Yard as the military and commercial in
terests Of. the United States demand, will
require a very large sum of money. The
total cost will exceed $l2, DOC, 600. With
the knowledge that the permanent USE
fulness Of this yard is so seriously threat
ened, and to determine the question
whether the causes of the apprehension
can be permanently removed or avoided,
the committee thinks it is to the interest
of the Government that these matters
should be inquired into, to the end that
in future such appropriations as may be
called for to protect navy interests on
the Pacific coast may be ~intelligently con-
sideted and determined with reference to
the best interests Of the Government.

LONDON, June 21.-Last week a court

racks, in the quarters Of the Horse Guards,

increased the sentence to 1886 days.
A Daily News special says there is no
longer any doubt the famine fever has ap-
peared in some parts of West and South
ireland. A letter read in the Mansion
House Relief Committee, from Charleston,
County Mayo, says the famine fever OF the
most dangerous character is very preva-
lent, and is making much progress. 1t has
also appeared in Swenford, and in Glen
gariffe, County Cork.
PEsTH, June 20.-The village Of Homann,
in the county Of Seemplin, was destroyed
by fire. Many of the inhabitants were
burned, and others injured. The famine
having ragged since the beginning OF the
winter, the misery is in~describable.
One thousand and eleven houses were

suE PRESIDENTIAL OUTLOOK.

The dispatches from the East, says the
Examiner of Saturday, report the posi-
tive declInation of Horatio Seymour as a
candidate for the Presidential nominal
item at Cincinnati. He will not accept the
nomination, even though it be rendered
TO him by unanimous vote. This ought
to suffice, and now there should be no
more talk of Seymour. The great fight
is made against Tilden. 1t is made by a
combination of the great railroad corpo-
r%ations, Republicans and Democrats alike,
and the mass Of the scheming politicians
are likewise opposing his nomination
mainly because they all know and feel
thew cannot use HIM or hoodwink him.
He is the uncompromising and unyielding
foe to aggressive monopoly and to corrup-
ton in the public service. Hence the
great corporations and corruptionists pre-
fer any other candidate to him. The
New York World is the chief organ Of
the railroad combination to beat Tilden
at Cincinnati. 1t is owned and gulded
by Republicans, although it pretends to
be a Democratic paper. Jay Gould, the
owner of the Tribune, the great hacker
Of Blaine at Chicago, and now the hacker
of Garfield, is working by all his under
ground and stealthy arts to compass the
nomination of any candidate at Chicago,
other than Tilden. He is said to be
favoring Judge Field. The excitement is
growing daily, and by the time the Con-
ventior meets, next Tuesday, it will be
the greatest that has been witnessed at a
Democratic National Convention for many
years. The Democracy Of California will
heartily support the candidate no matter
who he may be. This is the only proper
sentiment.
