ST.. LOUIS, May ia special session
OF the Choctaw Indian council met ut
Armstrong Academy, the capital of the
Nation, yesterday, having been called
by principal Chief McCurlin to consider
the freedom question, by the treaty Of
1866, between the Federal Government
and the Confederate Indians. The
Choctaw and Chicaksaws agreed to eman-
cipate and give the usual rights to the
colored people in their Nation within
two wears, for which tho United States
was to give them $500, 900; but if they
did not want to adopt them in that tirae,
the money was to be used to remove and
settle the darkies elsewhere. The
Chocktaws failed to adopt them and the
Government to move them, and they
have been there ever since, without
either citizenship, rights or title to the
laad they work. The Chocktaws now
desire to adopt them, and for this pur-
pose their council was called.

An Adirondack Black Animal


 The fisher, or black cat, as he is famiIiarly called by the trapper, is an animal of the wea- sel family, but larger than fox-about four feet in length from end of nose to tip of tail, is dry land animal, live tree climber ; in fact, can go up and down more trees in a given space of time than any other animal in the Adirondacks. Why it was ever called by it's present oognomen of a fisher is mystery, as know of nothing in it's habits to warrant the appellation. It is carniverous animal. The only departure from it's flesh eating hab. it that ever noticed was that it would eat beach nuts in season when they were plenty, which is also fact as regards the fox and the sable. The fisher is strictly an inhabitant of the primitive forests, as he never ventures
 out into settlements or detached piece of woods. He is great traveller, it being neth- ing uncommon for one to take ten to twenty miles in a night, and this without any per- ceivable purpose, as he is quite as likely to 1 find himself in the morning near where he started from the night before as otherwise. | It is nocturnal animal, and is 8 little larger
 than the fox, shorter legged and little less l bushy tail it's head and shoulders lightly tinged with gray, while the rest of the body l and tail are. black. It has splenndid coat
 of fur, and is worth from $s to $lo- It Is not shy and cunning. like the fox, but can be easily baited and trapped, but IS very strong, requiring a smart trap to hold it. It has formidable set of teeth and plenty of muscle to use them to advantage.
 Speaking of it's biting qualities reminds me of little incident that occurred few
 years ago. On going to my traps one morn l ing found 2 fine large fisher. had some friends visiting me at the time, and one of them had expressed great desire to see a live fisher, and decided at once to take it
 home alive and so gratify my friends desire

| GIVE US A BOARD OF PARDoNs. It is to be hoped that the last days of the
 legislature will be it's best, and that 1t will in those days make such record that those
 who write obituary sketches of it can say
 better things of it than they could say were
 the session to close tomorrow.
 One of the things which the legislature
 ought to do is to pass 8 bill for the estab.
 lishment of State board of pardons. The 1 State Prison committee has reported favora-
 ply bill providing for such board. This bill provides that the board shall consist of the governor, 8 judge of the Supreme court
 to be designated by the judges of that court 1 at their annual meeting, and four persons to l be named by tho General Assembly, one of l whom shall be physician. The exclusive ju-
 risdiction for granting commissions of pun 1 ishment and release Conditional or sbso1ute)
 from the State prison, shall be vested in this l board. The board must all concur to make l 8 release or commission operative It shall hold two sessions at Hartford in each year be- ginning on the first Monday of next Decem- Der thereafter the meetings to be held on the first Mondays of June and December in
 each year, in the Supreme court room at Hart ford ; 1t may hold special meetings whenever
 occasion may require, and may fix by rule the mode of proceeding before it. and the manner in which it's judgments shall be carried into effect. The bill provides for the terms of service of the members appointed by the legislature, and the filling of vacancies The members of the board shall receive for their travelling and other expenses $5 per day for each day employed the board shall have the power to appoint clerk at an annual salary of $2Oo.
 There are some provisions in this bill open to criticism. For instance, it might be bet ter to give the appointment of the four mem- bers to the governor, subject to the appro- val of the legislature, rather than to the legislature itself. But the legislature should pass soms such bill. We have frequently pointed out the need for the establishment of a board of pardons. Year after year com mittees of the legislature. composed, of course, of different men, waste much time and patience in hearing the stories of those who petition for release from State prison. Convicts hope that if they and their counsel cannot succeed with one committee they may with another, and sometimes their hope is realized A State board of pardons would examine cases and settle them. at least for 8 few years. Records would be kept and much time and trouble saved. And with all due respect to the legislative committees, we consider it highly probable that g board com posed of the governor. judge of the Su- Al, table persons would be quite as apt to do equafand exact justice as the State Prison committee of the legislatare, composed, as it must usually be, of men not especially fitted to deal with the delicate questions which are frequently connected with con vict's application for pardon.

Biennial Sessions.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 I have read with pleasure your remarks upon the bill for biennial sessions under head of tFewer Sessions"-''Hon work of leg islation does not require annual sessions If it does tell us why" Now the best argu ment have heard in favor of annual ses- sions was by former lieutenant governor, when he said that he thought the benefit was next to common schools, as it qualified mem- bers from country towns to understand bet ter how to conduct town business. Now this idea may in measure be true, but as it costs the State $600 to send two members and with incidentals perhaps $1,O00 year for a town it strikes one as rather expensive edu- cation and that such education for the alter nate year could be obtained at a great saving to the people. The idea of spending the time of so many three or four months out of every twelve to make new and patch up old laws for the other eight or nine months looks 8 good deal like farce, and this was my opinion few years since when the same question was before the people of our State, and voted for it, and I should again.

By the law of Pennsylvania intoxicating liquors cannot be sold to minors, and it is a misdemeanor, punishable by fine and impris onment for any minor to represent himself to be of age for the purpose of getting in toxicating drinks. Some of the liquor deal CTS have taken advantage of this law in peculiar way. When charged by parent or guardian with selling liquor to a minor the seller finds it easy to threaten the minor with prosecution under the act for lying about his age; and this blackmailing scheme may be practised even when the only viola tor of the liquor law is the saloon keeper himself. This law ought to be fixed.
