Whether or not there was any real danger that
the Cheyennes would rise is not clear, but General
Sheridan seems to have successfully put stop to
all purposes Of the kind. and it is possible that
his presence may have discouraged those white men
who were believed to have selfish interests in the
fomentng OF trouble. The General recommends
the appointment of q new agent for the Cheyennes,
and he is said to have obtai1ed some practical
ideas in regard to the vexed question OF grass
leases which question he appears to think Is at the
bottom of most Of the recent difficulties.

makes Mr.. Weed responsible formed statement Of

not printed as the language Of Mr. Weed Or Of any

Miss Blanche Williams Of Brantford Canada,
has just matriculsted in the University Of Toronto
The event Is made tho subject Of an editorial
article by The Toronto Globe the reason being that
the matriculant Is young lady Of color. and the
first to be admitted to the privileges OF tho uni
versity. Six years ago two colored girls. sisters.
matrculated. but owing to the regulations then in
force they were not allowed to attend lectures in
University College. Miss Williams, according 10
Tho Globe, passed in mathematics, history, geog-
raphy, classics aud English, and obtained second
GLASS honors In French and German.

The fact that John Roaoh's bids for the Dolphin
and the three cruisers were $315,0O0 below any
other contractors seems to dispose Of tho charge
that he was bent upon plundering the Govern
mont His enemies. however. are equal to tho
emergency. seizing the bull by the horns. they
affirm that this very discrepancy between his bids
and those Of his competitors proves that he had
intention of honestly fulfilling his contract. If he
could afford to do the work for so much less, say
these tricky critics, he must have had positive as
surances FROM headquarters that he could skin
the job" How dishonest is this plea, when, under
National legislation and the contracts of the Navy
Department. every iron plate was to bear the Gov
ernment stamp and every stage in tho process OF
construction was to be supervised by naval officials
II the Dolphin and the cruisers have been made of
defective materials. II there has been any skim

was to oversee every detail Of construction have

COMMUNICATIONS.

Mr.. EDITOR The distinguished
scholar, Canon Farrar, Chaplain to the
Queen of England, makes the follow
ing declaration on the second page Of
his excursus to his Life of Christ,
published by E. P. Dutton & Co., 713
Broad way, New York "All attempts
to discover the month and day Of the
nativity are useless. No data what
ever exists to enable us to determine
them even with approximate accuracy.
In the letter Of u A. Spooner," ap.
pearing in your issue Of the 9th ult.,
it is stated positively, that, under de-
cree Of the Emperor Cesar Augustus,
"the record of that birth (Christ's) was
made and it exists" "And that record
makes the birth day Of Christ Deem
Der 25."
Now, either Canon Farrar or j, A.
Spooner must be entirely wrong, and
as the PRONUNCIATION Of erroneous asser
ton concerning religious matters is the
reverse of beneficial, you will doubtless
feel il incumbent upon you to obtain
from j. A. Spooner, and lay before

REPRESENTATIVE RANDALL, Of
Pennsylvania, is making Southern
trip and SO far seems to be received
with great favor and enthusiasm by
the Southern people. Why is this 7
Il is not because Of bis great oratory
nor Of any one exploit that has called
public attention to him, but because
he is representative Of honest govern
meat, and one who favors the proper
protection of American interests. -
While he claims TO be Pennsylvan-
ian, he considers himself as belonging
to the entire country, and bound to
legislate SO that the interest not Of a
section alone, but of the whole nation
shall be subserved. After over twenty
years service in Congress he can boast
Of an untarnished reputation. Many
more brilliant men have arisen and
for awhile shone in the political horizon,
but have sunk some into dishoner or
disgrace, others in mediocrity. Ran
dall's example is a good one to young
politicians and his career can be
studied by them much to their profit.

THERE are some people in this town
who are continually starting false ru-
mors, either about persons or facts, and
seem to delight in slandering the good
name and fame Of others. Without
any intention Of doing essential injury
to a neighbor, careless remark relat-
ing to some minor fault Of his. is made
by some one in the stores or hotel, and
is seized by a babbler, and, as it passes
drought the babbIing tribe, each one
adds to its bulk and gives its color a
darker hue, until it assumes the mag
nitade and blackness Of base Islander.
We hope that the people will not be
hasty to credit such evil reports about
their friends and neighbors. They
are often the result of misunderstanding
from an exaggerated or partial disclos-
ure of facts. Human nature is tree
bearing both good and evil fruit, but
our eyes are wide open to the latter
and half closed to the former. We
therefore, hope the our good people
win speak more carefully and csutious-
