tain the cause. William Bashare, In

an alarm and started after them,
The fleeing burglars turned and fired sew
eral shots at him, one of which took effect.
Basllare, being nnarmed, turned about and
ran to his home. An Investigation led 10

tween $1,000 and SIS, 900 in cash

NEW York. Dec. 5.--IIon. Samuel j.
Tilden has written a letter to John G. Car
Isle, in which lie advocates applying the

posed to destruction in the twelve
seaports-Portland, Portsmouth, Boston,
Newport, New York, Philadelphia,

not be less in value than SIS, 900, 000, 900.
10 this must be added 4 vast amount
OF property dependent for its
use on these seaports. Nor
does this statement afford a true
measure Of the damage which might be
caused to the property ard business of the
country by a failure to protect these sea-
ports from hostile naval attacks. They are
the centers not only of foreign COM
merce but Of most of the internal
trade and EXCHANGES of domestic production.

become adapted. The interruption of

patton Of one or more of our princi-
pal seaports by a foreign enemy, or the

INDIAN AFFAIRS.

Extracts from the Annual Report of Conn
missioner Atkins lilo Favors the Plan
to Make Farmers of the Nations Wards.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3-The annual re-
port of General Atkins, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs, expresses faith in the ulti.
mate civilization of the indians and in
dorses the plan of al!otting to them lands
in severalty. The amount of land granted
to each Indian should vary with it's value as
farming land, and the title to each lot should
be held in trust for its owner twenty
five years in order to protect him from land
sharks. The money paid for the balance
of each reservation should be invested in
in the education, ETC., of each tribe. When
sufficiently civilized by the farm and school
the rights of citizenship should be bestowed
on the Indians.
OF 260, 900 Indians in the United States,
exclusive Of Alaska, only q little more than
q, 600 are civilized. Exclusive of the lands
cultivated by the five civilized tribes in In
dian Territory the number of acres cult
waited by Indians during the year was 24S,-
PAL, an increase OF lS,473 since last year.
The Commissioner presents at length the
various plans Of the friends of the In
dians for their settlement on individual
farms, but makes no definite recommends
ton of any of them. A history of the
Apache outbreak in Arizona is given. The
report says that wherever courts for the
trial of offending Indians have been estab-
iished they have been entirely successful
aud in many cases eminently useful. Re-
ferring 10 Indian police the COMMISSIONS
says:

that Lord Tennyson received a special

1t would be just rs reasonable to say
that the royal chief received a special

the Princess wedding breakfast. The
Poet Laureate, like the royal chief, is
a member of the Queens household,
