Lamars Tribute to n Dastardly Outlaw.
New York Graphic tDem., and Ardent Administers
ticn.l
Secretary Lamar, in ordering the flag over the
Interior Department to be placed at half-mast
and in suspending public business in honor of
the memory of ex-Secretary Jacob Thompson,
committed serious error DUE doubtless, to the
momentary forgetfulness of incontestable his
torical facts
Jacob Thompson. of Mississippi, had placed
himself beyond the bounds of civilization by
self confessed acts of arson and incendiarism,
committed under his orders and direction in
Northern cities during the civil war. Certain
modes of warfare ara deemed proper and legiti-
mate under the usages of civilized nations and
the rules of international law Burning cities,
far removed from the seat of by stealth and by
means of Greek fire. explosives and torches in the
hands of non commissioned, uncnlisted soldiers

fare It involved the destruction of non-com-
batants without notice to withdraw from dan
ger, and the burning to death of thousand of in
nocent children and women, and the criminally
wanton destruction of food, clothing and other
property not in any sense contraband of war.
Jacob Thompsons acts and crimes were pre-
cisely identical in their nature with the barbar
Gus acts and monstrous crimes of the dynamite
outlaws who undertook to destroy public and
private property and innocent lives in London,
instead of New York, by similar means Thomp-

Secretary Lamar did not come to the depart
ment to-day. He remained at home by the ad-
vice of his doctor as he is suffering from cold
and is besides, considerably worn out by the
strain and pressure Of the past three weeks. He
has been in the habit of coming to the Office at 8
o'clock and receiving everybody that called up to
1870, and then for tho balance of the day he re-
ceived members of Congress and his personal
friends. In addition to this he has undertaken
to attend personally to the great mass OF matters
that como up in the business of the department.
His friends think he is overworked, aud he will
probably now take their advice and transfer a
part of the burden to other shoulders In spite
OF the great rush of visitors Secretary Lamar al
ways maintained his good nature. A few days
ago gentleman called and said to him as he
shook hands:
II am not after any Office, Mr.. Secretary, and
want to ask no favors."

Admirable Conduct of the Family.

New York Special.
The conduct of the Generals family in their
bereavement has attracted the admiration of
every body. COL Fred. Grant who has been in
constant attendance on his father, day and night
gets especial praise. He has worked unceasing-
ly ever since his fathers illness, months ago,
and it is due to his untiring watchfulness that
the General has got along as well he has.
Mrs. Grant, too has been one of the most con-
slant watchers, and the long siege of anxiety
which she has undergone is beginning to tell on
her. Her cheeks have lost their color, and her
face is pale and careworn. The physi-
clans compel her to take long drive
through the park every day, in order to
keep her from breaking down completely, and
they do everything possible to relieve her ankle
ty about her husband. She awaits the end with
heroic fortitude, though constantly hoping for
some change that will postpone its coming
The return of Mrs. Sartors last week was
also relief to Gen. Grant. She has always
been the life and spirit of the household. as we'll
as the pet, and her endeavors to tighten her
fathers burden have not been without their
good results. The General wants her with him
all the time, and her presence seems to relieve
him. Sometimes she reads and again she talks
to him, and he listens with rapt attention. 1t
always pleases him, no matter what the subject
is, and she helps to pass away the lingering
hours Of his confinement.

Talk About Dakota's Admission.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1S.-The Times
(Mugwump) says Of the admission Of Ds-
kota: There is nothing startling in the ac-
ton of the somewhat fresh pioneers Of Oa-
kots, Michigan, California, Colorado and
other Territories setting up dummy State
government before they had enabling acts
from Congress. The business of creating
pocket commonwealth was so largely over.
done In the cases of Oregon. Nevada and
Colorado, that Congress will likely be slow
to repeat the folly Of Oregon and Nevada
with more than half a generation of time to
grow. They have never yet got beyond
single Congressman.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1S.-The admission Of
Dakota is the topic of morning editorials.
The Tribune says Senator Buffers resolution
was inspired by partisan motives, and cites
Democratic precedents for the admission of
Territories similarly situated to Dakota.
The Worlds Washington special frankly
comedies the partisan issue, and says: The
Democrats In Congress have steadily OPP
posed Its admission, and will continue to do
so. II Is remembered here that California,
before 1t was admitted, pursued the very
same policy now being pursued by Dakota.
California organized as 3 State, elected q
Legislature, and even went through the form
of electing two men to the United States
Senate. Dakota is following CALIFORNIA;
example, hoping to accomplish . similar
success. The threatening talk Of the people
OF Dakota 10 regarded here Is 10 much empty
bombast.
The Eoening Posts Washington special
Gays: Indications favor . long partisan de-
bate on Senator Buffers resolution. South
ern men interpose more obstacles to bring
ing this State into the Union than they did
to taking State out of It.
Representative Morrison said: "The pres
snt Congress will certainly not consent TO
the admission Of oIe.half as State. The
admission of the entire Territory to the
Union may be possible"

secure the approval and cooperation Of
Senator Edmunds, who secured the defeat

no doubt the latter was acting conscientious
ly but he certainly did not realize the situa-
ton In Montana. With oil three judges

pointed terms, and writing their opinions,

a desirability Of another Justice lies in the
benefits that would be derived from having

THE following in Q Washington letter TO
the Philadelphia Times will be appreciated
by those who remember Congressman Symes
when be was Associate Justice of Montana:
"a little. headed, d-whiskered, psle-fsced
man, who sat upon the outer row of seats
with his arms folded complacently across
his chest, attracted considerable attention
when 1t became known that he was the sue
cessor OF Bedford, the 'red-headed rooster
of the Rockies This little person is Mr.
Symes, of Colorado, who refused to answer
when the Clerk first pronounced his name
as though 1t was spelled Sims and 10 deep
bass tones responded 'here' when the Clerk
gently put the accent upon the ~ 1t Is
said that after the last Presidential election
several Republicans were discussing the
result In Symes' office. One OF them thought
that the election Of Cleveland would result
IN the payment by the government of the
Confederate war debt. Another believed
that ex- Confederate soldiers would be pen.
stoned and third predicted other dire mis-
fortunes TO the country. Gentlemen,
exclaimed Mr.. Symes, IN rich, orotund
tones, you are probably partially right In
your conclusions, but you forget one thing
will be there to protect the interests Of the
nation.'"
