The Commissioner for Indian af-
fairs, IN his annual report, prepared
to b e submitted to Congress at the
next session, speaks favorably Of the
progress made by the Indians. More
of them are now living in houses than
there were one year ago; the num-
Der of those who are cultivating land
and living thereby has very consider
ably increased within the past year !;
the same is true of those who are en-
gagged in mechanical shops; and the
attendance of Indian children at
schools is much larger than it was
one year ago. These are certainly
very encouraging facts, and give
good promise of still better facts of
the same kind in the future. The
Commissioner thinks that the usual
appropriation of congress to feed and
clothe the Indians is not adequate to
to their wants, and hence that il
should be considerably increased. II
amounts to only seven dollars per an
mum per capita, which is a fraction
less than two cents day for eacl
Indian. The Courts of Indian Of
lenses, established by congress a
the several Indian agencies, hav,
been productive of good in promot
ing order among the Indians; ant
yet the appropriations to pay the ex
penses of these courts are entirely in
adequate. The Commissioner call
attention to the necessity of NOR
stringent legislation in respect to til
sale of arms and ammunition to th
Indians, and, especially the sale c
Intoxicating liquors to them, and RET
ommends Congress to amend tn
laws on this subject, so as to increas
the severity of the penalty for an
violation thereof. The whole repo
shows most commendable zeal {
the part of the Commissioner, so

make it secure the ends intended |

The uncertainty of the result

st. Louis Wins Its Fifth Consecutive Game
from Indianapolis.
The Indianapolis club seems fated never to
win another game, losing their fifth consecu-
tive ball to the st. Louis nine yesterday, by the
somewhat one-sided score of II to 4. McKeon
and Keenan, did the battery work for Indianapo-
his, while ONeil and Deasley performed like
service for the visitors. McKeon was evidently
not in his best form, and was batted very freely,
besides which he sent four men to5Grst base on
called balls, all Of whom scored. ONeil was
batted for seven base hits, one of which was for
a home run by Peltz. The visitors played a
fairly good fielding game, and earned six
of their runs. Dorgan was taken sick in the
field just before the game was called, and was
obliged to retire, Friess being substituted for
him. 1t was his second game with the club, and
his most ardent admirers must admit that he
was not an overwhelming success in the posi-
ton, having three errors. He made a fine play
in the eighth inning, fielding Deasley out at first
from right field, and having a two-base hit to
his credit, Peltz, in the fifth inning, got the
ball over the %eft-ield fence for a home run,
much to Mr.. ONeills astonishment. The UNI
piring of Valentine was about az bad as
it could have been, two of his de-
cisions on third base being atrociously bad.
He was hooted at and Kissed by the crowd, by
which {. cheerful disposition to mob him was
severed times manifested. When he left the
field he was followed for two blocks by several
hundred spectators, who Kissed, groaned and
shouted at him until he took refuge in a cab.

An Abiding Belief that the South VIII Yet
Win q Bloodless Victory.
Rome CGa.l Special.
There is to be a military encampment of State
troops here in July, and arrangements have been
made to make it q revival of military spirit
among the young men of the South. Among
those whose presence was promised was Jefferson
Davis, but this morning the Courier prints the
statement that the ex-confederate ehieftain can
not come. In his letter, Mr.. Davis says:
The inducements you offer are to me most attract
i've. To see the veterans of the war for State SOW
ereignty and the sonsof those who so nobly main
tanned the cause would be to me a pleasure of which it
is with sincere regret l find myself deprived. Borne
down by overwhelming numbers, Southern resistance
to wrong and usurpation proved unavailiug; but, be.
lieving as | did and do, that the cause was iust--that
we were but asserting the eternal truths on which our
fathers founded American Independence and which,
sooner or later, l hope and believe the American peo-
pie will reassertI cannot admit that ours was a lost
cause. 1t may not bel hope it never will be-neces-
sary to vindicate that cause by force of arms; but,
when the passions of the day subside and reason has
replaced truth upon her throne, ours will again be
recognized as the union of free, sovereign. and indie
pendent States, held together by a common interest
and the noble desire to transmit the blessings to our
~posterity forever.
In printing this letter, the Courier says, edi-
torially:
There is no crying or fawning about the grand old
confederate statesman. His utterances are always in
keeping with the grandeur Of his life. His motto has
ever been, 'Hew to the line, let the chips fall where
they will, and not a single act in his life will belle the
principleh he teaches. Long may the glorious old hero
live; the pride of Southern chivalry.
Comment on the letter by the people is that
Davis always speaks at the wrong time; that as
presidential elections draw near he has to re
vamp something about State sovereignty and
similar exploded political saws, calculated TO
make people think there may be "design in the
old man YETI
