Ben Butler heads the delegation from Massachusetts to the Chicago convention carrying resolution from the convention that nominated him that thanks him "for his fearless pub. lie life" and recommends him for nomination. They have queer dem. ocrats Tn thlt good old state who wish for a democratic candidate from all the parties of the country. A few years since this eminent spoonist was a follower of Grant; previous tc which he was democrat of the ex- treme southern type, having voted for Jeff Davis in the Charleston conven. tion in 1860 fifty-seven times. Re gently he was elected to the Govern. orship oi Massachusetts on the demo. cratic ticket. It is evident that he will in the present campaign receive the nomination of the Greenback. labor party; that it will be ratified by tn. Prohibition party and all disafected organizations that have effected party organization. Mir. Butler was once a Republican and now belongs to and seeks to lead all other parties in the country.

The Courier's plan for tanning Nav ajoes, Apaches and other unchristiar Indians, IS to give Gen. Crook com mand Of Arizona and New Mexico with contiguous portions of Colorado Utah and Texas; then reduce dimen. sions of reservations; drive all Indian ring schemers off the reserves; ailo, lands to every Indian family; furnish them tools, seeds, some domestic ani. mals; teach them book learning and. most important of all, coeiCe them, il need be, into becoming good and use. ful citizens of the republic. General Crook IS especially equipped, in head and heart, for a work of this kind. With proper support from govern. ment and people, he would, in say three years, give the Indians a good dose of such civilization as we boast of and which IS, we suppose, as good as there Is m America outside of Bos- ton.-Prescott Courier.
 Bro. Marion sounds the key note to our Indian policy. Give them a helping hand for reasonable length of time. Meanwhile set them a good example. After which make them amenable to civil law. Encourage them if they are good and hang them if bad. That's all.

Gods agency in forming q nation,
was the subject of last nights sermon
in the Presbyterian Church. After
showing the power of laws and in
stitutions, the preacher referred to
the power of great events in the ma
tional history, in the following man
ner: "We cannot think of the work
done by our fathers, on the 4th of
July, 1867, without recalling some
Of the events prior to and after the
Declaration of Independence events
which are causes and consequences
of the action then taken. Some of
these events occurred in this city, and
have not merely local but national
Importance. In that primative per-
iod, sovereignty centered here, prob
ably as much as in any other part
of, the country"
After referring tothe history of the
Stamp Act, and the burning of the
British brig Peggy Stewart" with
1920 pounds of tea, and the valor Of
the Maryland troops, the Reverned
gentleman spoke of the bravery of
General DeKalb, "who had come to
this country with Lafayette, and

oils, and while here won the hearts
of the people by his pleasing manners
as well as his soldierly qualities. The
announcement of his death filled all
hearts with sorrow, and led Congress
nearly one hundred and four years
ago, to pass resolution for the erec-
tion of a monument to his memory.
That monument has not yet found
its place in Annapolis, but before
many more months shall have passed
we expect to see it on conspicuous
and imposing sight near the State
House.
"The blockade of this port; the hast
ening of troops to and from our city
as the emergency required; the arriv-
al of distinguished officers, the alterna-
tion of gloom and JOY as the reports
of defeat or victory came from the
battlefield, present interesting chap
ters in our history, and show that our
city shared largely in the scenes and
events of the Revolution.
"What transpired here ought to
awaken the patriotism and enthus-
iasm of our people, and give to each
succeeding anniversary of our nations
birth increasing interest. We believe
in remembrance of the great events
of our national history; they show the
hand of God, and how He used these
in moulding and directing the nation. y
