the secretary gives an explanation of the
important change which has taken place
with regard 10 the reservation system

found 1t the reservation policy which had
so long been followed By the Indian
otica, m0re extensive observation and
study Of tie matter gradually convinced
him that this was a mistaken policy;
that 1t would be better for the Indians,
and more In accordance with justice as

home attachments, to leave them upon
the lands they occupied, provided such
lands would yield them sustenanee by
agriculture, or pastoral pursuits, and to

Hon John GOode.

The course OF the Hon. JOHN GOODE. OF
Norfolk, in declining to be candidate for
denomination for Congress, is in keeping
with his reputation for true patriotism and
for devotion to the Democratic party. He
was the first congressman last year TO take
the stump and risk all for the sake Of the
welfare Of Virginia. He put aside oil self
ish considerations, and became one OF the
most earnest, active, and efficient OF the
advocates Of the ratification OF the MCCUL-
LocH bill. The negro vote in hi. dis
trlct is so large that he would stand
no chance for election to Congress un-
less he could thoroughly unite the white
voters. This he has no hope OF doing.
Unlike most aspirants TO place, he sees the
facts of the case, and refuses TO be in the
way Of any Democratic any such there
be-wbo can reunite the white voters. We
fear that there Is no man in the district who
can accomplish this desirable object, and we
suppose it may as well be conceded that the
Republicans will probably elect their nOmi
nee in that district.
The State loses one OF her most capable
faithful, and popular congressman when sh'
loses Mr.. GOODE. He stands high in The
House OF Representatives. The Norfon
district will not in the next twenty year
have another representative who can do a
much for her material interests as Mr.
GOODE has proved himself able to do yea
after wear.

Mr.. Massey's Fortune.

II we may judge from the Wings boasts,
1t is Of the opinion that Mr.. MASSEY has
paid the arrearages due the school fund. the
lunatc asylums, &C., out of some fund
which would not have been available TO
Auditor TAYLOR had he remained in Office
and in life. We beg our neigbbor to be
more specific. Tell us why Mr.. MASSEY is
entitled to any credit for hsving paid these
ARE garages. II he paid them out OF his own
private funds, he must be wealthy man
indeed. II he paid them out of the funds
provided by Democratic Legislature, (for
the last Readiuster Legislature reduced
rather than increased the amount OF the
States revenue,l we fail to understand why
be is entitled to any special credit for so
doing.
Again IL under existing circumstances
Mr.. MASSEY can get along without embar-
rassment, is it not plain that IL the McCUL-
LOcH bill had gone into operation, the State
would have saved annually in the item of
interest alone over two hundred thousand
dollars, and been perfectly free hereafter
from all trouble on account Of her financial

saving that there is no doubt about the sue
cess of the Cincinnati ticket, and Mr.. Bay
ard. all know, is not i'm the habit OF eX.
messing opinions without due dclibeIafion.
Mr.. Charles COe, assistant register OF the
Second congressional district IN COnnectl-

Republican party OF his State. has written

Their Animus.

The por,ion Of the letter OF the Rich

american which we reproduce this morn
ing tells a good many things which W. ID
II. learned from the ReSdjusters during MI
sojourn In Richmond as the represen'a''N'
OF the leading Republican journal pr'n'e'
south Of the Potomac. Note:
1. Nr. MAssEY's declaration 'na' u "

more important TO maintain Resdiuster rule
IN virginia than to elect anybody President

HANCOCK man.
2. The declarations OF nearly every Ke'
adjuster speaker to the same purport as Mr.
PAur,s. Fine specimens Of HANCOCK men,
all OF them.
4. Had General GRANT been nominated at
Chicago. and General MAHoNs had deemed
II nroper 10 frame GRANT electoral ticket,
the ReSdiusters in this Convention wouId
have let him have his way. These be HAN
COCK men Of a peculiar sort.

come 10 nought. Mr.. HARRISON, TOO, was
warned that II he persisted in his motion 10

electors or the regular HANCOCK electors
This latter will be notable achievement Tor
a HANCOCK leader-an original HANCOCK

7. What the Readjusters proper think OF
the Republicans proper. II the northern
Republicans send money to Virginia, 1t VIII
either be stolen by the office-holders or ''re-
adjusted" 10 the purposes OF the Read

than OF his Virginia ancestry.
Read the letter for yourselves, and Judge
for yourselves whether an electoral ticket
made up by such a convention is genuine,
or a regular, or a Democratic. or even
HANCOCK electoral ticket. Do these men
care one straw whether HANCOCK is elected
or not? Let Mr.. JOIN S. WISE, who is one
OF the men now asking for votes as HAN
COCK elector, answer. He SAID in a recent
letter TO the Wing:
"Wben we gel there [to the July CoDven-
tion]. and the party policy is settled after
full conference, | will, for one, abide by its
determination, whether our course be to sup

Democrats from several different sections OF
the country said last night that Hancock was
going l. be elected any how, and that he hoped

ton would etiectually prevent a single one
of the horde Of Ofijce-seekers from that STATE

that this remark was approved by all VINO

He also said that he and his party would
