The numerous failures of the past few
weeks, will have rather a purifying eff
fct than otherwise on the financial at
mosphere, as the thunderstorm purifies
the murky summer ar. These disasters
will serve as storm signal to reckless
SPECTATORS, and those who are not so
reckless, but are in danger of being
drawn into the whirlpool through the
deceptive glamor of apparent success,
which follows the ventures of their
rasher brethen. The warning comes at
an opportune moment, and if rightly ac-
cepted, instead of being cause of
alarm, will be the means of averting,
later on, a panic, which would bring
close upon its heels the disastrous con-
sequences which led to the ':hard times
of several years ago.

The San Carlos indians have been
transferred to the War Department, for
the present, the Indian ring washing
its hands of them until such time as
it will be safe to attempt the regulation
policy in dealing with them. The In
dian ring, it may be observed in pass
ing, has no use for gentle savages who
are anyways given to warlike objections
against the mouldy beef and half-ration
policy of the ring, but when they get
hold of a good Indian, what there is left
of him is not worth mentioning. The
Apaches, fortunately for themselves,
are not classed among the good Indians.
