THE proclamation issued some time
since by the Indian Bureau, ordering all
white settlers to yacate the lands of the In
dian Nation who have not paid III 'ir tax and
obtained permit from the Indian authori-
ties, is now being enforced. Lieut.. Shoema-
ker,with company Of United States soldiers.
together with force of Indian militia under
Gov. McCurtain, have been stationed on the
border Of the Territory, near Fort Smith,
for the purpose of ejecting all settlers who
are not disposed to 60 voluntarily. Many of
the settlers claim to be unable to pay the
tax, and their forcible dispossession is said
to work a great hardship, leaving them and
their families homeless.

An Unexampled Episode.

The violent alterations Of hope and fear
through which the people have passed dur
ing the last eight weeks constitute an unex-
ampled episode not only in the history OF
this country, but in the history Of the world.
Indeed, such an episode could not occur in
any other country, because in no other
country is there such universally OF respect
and love for the political institutions thereof.
As every citizen of the United States is part
and parcel Of the Government, a vicious blow
aimed at the heart Of the Chief Executive
of the Nation wounds every citizen. Every
citizen resents it as personal indignity, and
every citizen is touched with sympathy for
the sufferings OF the chosen head OF the Gov
ernment Of which be is part. Hence In
every household in the land the cloud of sor-
row which hangs heavily over the Ex-
ecutive Mansion is reflected. Under these
circumstances, the extreme tenderness
which has characterized the sentiments Of
the whole people toward President Garfield
and the members Of his family in their
great affiiction is most appropriate, most
creditable. 1t is new revelation OF pa
triotism, and an assurance that neither tne
strife of politics nor the greed Of gaia has
ayaied to harden the heart or the
American people. In great emergency
patriotism emerges from the shadow or fac
tional and partisan controversies, and greet
ings Of universal good fellowship are heart
lily exchanged. A great sorrow has been po-
tent to unite a great people. II
the ray OF hope Of the Presidcntn
recovery is destined to be dis
PEELED, and the great man finally sinks
away to rest, there is no nook or corner OF
the land where he will not be mourned, no
place in the Nation where his memory will
not be tenderly reyered. On the other hand,
il the ray OF hope shall expand into the sun
shine Of full assurance Of the Presidents
recovery, there will rise to Heaven one uni
yersal acclaim Of thanksgiVina- --Cbscaao

patients barely escaped. The pub
lie parks are shorp of some Of
the finest trees and otherwise injured.
The damage along the wharves and among
the shipping is immense. Many lives are
known to have been lost, especially OF coll
ored people occupying little huts on rice
plantations and along the river. Ten negro
hands OF the Coosaw Mining Company, re-
turning home Saturday night, got in the
ferry house at Port Royal Ferry for protec-
ton. The house washed away and the men
were drowned.
A TERRIBLE accident occurred near
Maroa, ILL.,, on the night of the 2Sth. Uriah
James and his wife started to 60 into their
cellar with a lantern, to move some milk
crooks from under the drip of a leaking can
Of gasoline. While on their way down the
cellar stairs drop of the fluid struck the
lantern, which also contained gasoline, and
Immediately the whole thing exploded, burn
ing Mr.. and Mrs. James in shocking man
ner. Mrs. James died soon afterward from
the effects of her injuries, and Mr.. James
was not expected to live.
A FIRE at Beaver Falls, Pa, on the
2Sth, destroyed Mellon & Sons four-mill,
the Pittsburgh Hinge Works and the Beaver
Falls Steel Works. Total loss about $140,-
600; fully insured.
A RECENT dispatch from Algeria says:
All the country around Philippeville, to the
extent of sixty square kilometers, is one
vast confagration. Stora, the port Of Phil
ippeville, has been destroyed. A forest of
cork trees is ablaze, and, famed by vo-
lent siroccO, is carrying all before it. tits
hardly possible for the garrison aud popula-
tion to effect anything in the way of subdu
ing the fire, owing to the heat. 1t is feared
that the fire originated with the Arabs.

Grand Trunk Road was thrown from the
track near Detroit by broken rail, and nine
cars were wrecked. A brakeman named
Egroven was thrown into the air and in

THE President of the Swiss Confeder-

Cramer, expressed the sorrow and anger Of
Switzerland at the act which brought Pres

an earnest hope for his recovery.
THE steamboat State of New York,
plying between Hartford, Conn, and New

A passenger, his wife and child, went over

GENERAL HATCH says that Mana has

GENERAL HATCH says that Mana has
crossed the line into Sonora with sixty Apa-
ches, and Lieutenants Dimmick and Taylor
are on his trail. Two companies of the Ninth
Cavalry have taken the field from Fort Cum
mings, and ten more companies will scout the
Black range. The band Of Indians which
have just crossed the line are thought to be
the main force, but there are others in San
Mateo Mountain who have committed some
depredations and killed several people.
Since the campaign began troops have en-
gagged the Indians in fifteen battles. The
body Of Lieut.. Smith, who was killed near
Mill Station, fell into the hands of the In
dians and was horribly mutilated. Advices
from Fort Cummings state that party OF
seven Mexicans travelling in wagon between
Cooks Canyon and Mule Springs We're at
tackled by the Indians and six of the party
killed. Twenty one men in all, American
and Mexican workmen, have been killed in
and around Mule Springs. Ayoung Amer
ican lady, the daughter Of an artisan Of Lake
Valley, was captured by the Indians on their
raid through that section, and is now held a
prisoner. Forty men from Lake Valley and
two companies Of troops have started out to
rescue her. The greatest excitement pre-
walls in that part OF the Territory. Miners
are abandoning their mines, stockmen are
leaving their ranches, and they are collect
ing at different points for protection.

PRESIDENT GARF1ELD's condition 3

1
the 9th Saturday was so extremely criti-
cal that even the sanguine DR.. Bliss for the
first time was forced to admit the improba-
bility of his recovery. The noon bulletin of
that day was the most discouraging yet is
sued, and non official dispatches all agreed
that fatal termination was anticipated, and
that probably within twenty -four hours.
Greatly to the surprise and delight of all,
however, towards evening the President
rallied somewhat, and the improvement,
although slight at first, continued without
any serious interruption. This Improvement
was manifested in four important symptoms
the pulse became lower and stronger, the
stomach resumed its normal functions, the
inflamed gland suppurated freely, while the
wound again presented a healthy appear
ancc. In short, the President had success
fully passed another and the most serious
crisis yet encountered.

PARLIAMENT was prorogued on the

speech says: 81 warmly appreciate the zeal

yourselves to the task Of maturing measures
for improving the relations between owners
and occupiers of land in Ireland and for 9TH
erwise bettering the condition of its agricul-
tural population. 1t is my earnest hope
that the new law may be productive of bene-
fits commensurate with the care you have
bestowed upon the enactments. 1t has been

bat the con1agration. The Post office with
all its contents was consumed. The origin of
the fire is not positively known. The aggre-
gate losses will foot up between $500 900
and $3.50, 900, with but comparatively small
insurance. Many people are left entirely
destitute. About the same time fire at

trust that Senator Thurman, now
Chairman of the Committee, will find
time to prepare report. The idea
that the militia, and not regular
army, is dan erous to the Republic is
one that none of the fathers maintain
ell.
There is now almost certainty
that the appropriation bills will be
passed before March 4tE. This fact
was incidentally stated in the Senate
yesterday, when proposition was
made to consider the funding BILL In
deed so admirably have the appropris-
tion bills been prepared by the House
Committee that they present no reason
able excuse for delay. In this list do
not include the River and babor bill,
which does not come from the appro-
priation committee. If possible, the
bill is worse this year than last.
Many proper subjects for Federal aid
are embraced in the provisions of the
bill-such as the principle harbors and
rivers of the country, and other rivers
which, being in the general line of
travel only need improvements 10 be-
come impCrtant-but the Biographies
and aliases have been searched for
streams unknowa to legislators, tour
lists, or business men, and much Of the
ten million al propriattd go 20 them
This is supposed to be made necessary
in order to get votes in the House for
the really proper expenditures. The
experiment of a really honest River and
R2rbor bill has not yet been tried in
the House within my recollection.
The Re-apportionment bill is not in
good condition for passage at this ses-
sion. Mr.. Cox has injured lis chances
by his violent opposition TO other meas
ureS. Mr.. Reagan no longer hopes for
action on his Interstate Commerce
bill, though it will probably be given
one or more days in the House next
week Senator Morril yesterday said
he feared there would be an extra ses-
sion il the funding bill failed. There
seems to be no good reason now for
doubling an agreement of tie two
Houses on this measure. There is q
disagreement as to the rate of interest,
but no other that can not be readily
arranged. The probability is confer
ence committee will be able to bring
the two Houses together Oh the sub
ject by the 4th Of March.

Senator yet.

1t turns out that Mr.. Hayes, the
great civil service reformer who has
for nearlyfour years occupied the pres
ideney in spite Of the notorious fact
that he was not elected thereto, has
compelled the treasury officials to pay
him his salary monthly in advance.
This he did in plain contrayention of
paragraph 3,64S of the revised stat
utes, which provides that ''no advance
of public money shall be made in any
case whatever" and in spite of the
protests of the officials of the treasury
this bold violation of the law. When
demonstrated with by member of his
cabinet, he simply answered that he
must have the money for investment.
But then, could anything better be ex-
pected from a fraudulent president?
