CEN. CROOK AND THE INDIANS.

Papers everywhere gre criticising Gen. Cooks Indian Policy, and we doubt very much whether single one of the writers, ~ho are % anxious to put them selves on record, know anysiling about Indian warfare or the proper treatment to be meted out to the red men of the lrounrAins. General Crook is acknowl- edged by officers of the army and old froltiersalea, wLo have had experience l.. campei.n.as against Indians, to be the L-st I4disa fighter ia the West and per- ,-a,,s U. the United States That he has l.os as yet captured any hostiles of the :; .te outbreak, is nothing to his discredit. Tae Indians were on the lookout, and l-sins country two to four hundred i...ies square, Gu, ~r with almost inpen- stT4DI= mountains and rasines to hide in, it Is to the old mountAineer nothing strange that they should have kept rr- spectakle distance from the troops. That tue General wiil follow them ito their .ens and stronghold in the Sierra Madre Mountains aud make them cry for peace, taere is but little doub.- The only fault ~e have. to find with General Crook is that of allowing Indians to have arms and amnun milton while on the reserva- tion, where they are being fed ard cared for by the general government. Unarmed Indians can to bu. little mischief.

4 NEED.

The importance of the proper develop ment of our widely extended fields oi mineral, is sufficient to justify the gov ernment in establishing at differeu, points schools or stations for the purpose of demonstrating the best methods oi mining and treating the ores of each locality. The field is so broad and di- verse, that the knowledge acquired in in one locality, is often practically una vailable at another, hence the necessity of qualified scientists who are able to adjust themselves to the requirements of any location The establishments of fish commissions and of weather reports form sufficient precedent for the inau- guration of this system, in 2 field vastly more important, the results of which would te permanent and lasting, and valuable fur reference and instruction, So long as there was demand fer their absolute existence. He results thus ob- tained, in fact, become a part of the per iEauent kuo~.edge Of the people forever valuable. The discose.y, analysis and classification of mineral, or the Giscov- cry of an agency which can be economi- cally supplied ia its treatIneu. and use, becomes q permaaea: factor of value, which, compared with the report of the direction Q. the Siad or probabilities of rain or sunshine, ii worthy c: coaS;dera- tiou.-ttM.aius F view.

A SORRY SELECTION.

in sending Granville H. Oury to Washington to lay before the aiministra- tor. the Indian situation in this Terri tory, with view to securing . remedy for that evil, the Pioneers of Tucson have shown but poor appreciation of the importance of the mission. Clothed with the powers of A Congressional Delegate for four long years, Oury was given every opportunity to demonstrate whether or not he possessed the ability and intellect to entitle him to be considered 2 man able to accomplish any good for his con- stituents, and we challenge Lis most ard ent supporters to point to single reform important or otLerwise-he effected during that period. ca his taking seat in the halls of Congress the Indian situa- ton was worse, if anything, than at pres ent. and during his term as delegate two in the history of the Territory occurred to spur him to activity.
 With the public sentiment created by these outbreaks in favor of the removal and disarming of the Apaches, had Oury possessed even ordinary ability he could have influenced the General Government to adopt an Indian policy which would have made impossible the recent out break of Geronimo aud his fellow cut threats. Yet, in view of this utter fail9re to secure even an official investi- gation of the situation,-mueh less prac- iical relief from the evil-he is now, by the virtue of the ipse diris of seventeen fossiliferous relics of bygone days, crea- ted, as it were, envoy extraordinary and minister pienipotentiary to secure foi- ever an abatement of the Indian nui- sance.

Twenty years ago the number of insane persons in the Ueited States was only 24,- 042. In 1870 it reached g, ,432, and in Iss(
 treatment was required for 91, 959 lunatics,
 From 1870 to 1880 the increase in insanity
 was nearly 15O per cent. while that of the
 whole population was about 26. These fig
 ures do not. however represent actual in
 crease, but during this period large nun.
 Der of insane persons previously concealed
 were brought to public notice by more thorough investigation. In America, apart from several large county asyiums, there are eighty state and forty private institu

The propor- ton of in. ane is greatest in New England, while the increase has been most rapid Tn the western states. h the state of New York there are thiriy-6se institutions for the care of these unfortunate people, ac- commodating Il, ,343 patients, while it is said tbere are 4 900 provided for at home
