Why Hancock Node Down the Line.

at is well known" said Judge George
NJ. Curtis, the other day, "that Gen. Han
cock did deed Of supererogation at Get
tysburg, in riding up and down in front Of
his line. He told me about it awhile ago.
He said he had splendid body Of men
and they had been fighting for two days
and were much exhausted At the time
spoken Of they had been under the fire of
$50 guns for two hours-an experience cal
culated To unnerve some men, even
though they are brave, and II is said to be
far more fatiguing than any march. They
were waiting for the end of the cannonad-
ing, and expecting that Longstreets corps
would charge across the valley and at
tempt to capture their position.
"'Just as we were awaiting the onset,
said the general, and few minutes be-
fore il look place, the historical incident
of riding down the line of Massena's 'front.'
on the left Of the French army at Wagram
occurred to me He rode up and down
many times to keep the men steady I'M
der fire, and it quieted their nerves Won
derfully. Men will dare anything il they
see that their commander asks them to
face no danger that he is not himself will
ing TO share. As soon as the incident
came to my mind, acted on it, dashing
out in front Of the men and riding up and
down between them and the advancing
enemy. That'sall there was about it. Ii
was done for purpose, and when the
men cheered and stood firm as IA rock,
knew il had served the purpose well. ~

IT APPEARS that the Chinese are
taking q hand now in Strengthening
foreigners. In the province of Quang
Bug, in China, they have just killed
some 400 and odd Catholics. Probably
most of these people are natives and
have been murdered by ignorant IA
natics, but as the massacre occurred
among the Catholic missions, doubtless
numerous citizens Of other countries
were killed, who were missionaries.
1t might pay this country 10 look into
the matter, In order to learn whether
any American citizens were Of those
who were killed. II 80, then the
United States might claim an Offset
to the demand OF China for that in
demnity which The Son Of the Sun de-
mands Of us. and justly, for American
outrages on Chinese In America.

Now Is the time to dig bitches.
Experience teaches, in this country,
that il hay be cut in quantity from the
prairie one season, less crop will be
cut the next year, and the third cut.
ting will not be worth raking. Those
who attempt TO cut consecutive crops
of hay from the same fields without
irrigation will fail. We recommend
our people who need TO cut hay, on
their farms and ranches, to commence
their ditching now, so they may have
them when needed. BY irrigating
our lands, at small cost, great results
are obtained. The increase and the
certainty of crops are sufficient to over
balance the extra expense of ditching.
Observation, moreover, shows that
when hay is cut for several seasons,
from the same piece Of ground, not
only does the crop pinch out, but the
land washes with the floods, which
come with occasional rains and melt
ing SHOWS, and becomes useless for cul-
tivation afterward, because of the
broken condition resulting from the
washing. Irrigation makes the grass
luxuriant each year, sets the roots, and
thus prevents washing. Our territor-
ial laws afford protection and induce
ment to those who desire to take out
bitches from the streams. and our peo-
pie should avail themselves of their
privileges.

Wednesday, April 7, 1886.

THE psrogative of the executive was
asserted in a signal case, as will be re-
membered when the executive of the
nation caused ii TO be known that the
bill creating the Office of general OF
the army-retired-and naming Gen.
eral Grant for the office thus created,
would not meet his approval, as it
was assumption by Congress of the APP
pointing power. Hence the office was
created and no one named In the bill
10 fill the position. A similar thing
has now been done in the case of Capt.
II. III. Pratt, the official head Of the
Carlisle, Pa, Indian industrial school.
Each appropriation bill of late years
contained clause giving 81 900 extra
pay to Capt. Pratt, of the Tenth cav
airy, as additional compensation on
account of his services in the Indian
schools. This year Capt. Pratt's name
is conspicuous In its absence. The In
dian department claims its privilege
OF appointing Capt. Pratt or any one
else whom the commission may desire
rs the head of the large Indian school
at Carlisle barracks. Capt. Pratt has
done good work among the Indians.
The extra $1,000 which he received
has been as thorn in the side Of
frontier officers of white regiments
iTenth cavalry is colored) and the
army officers have no fondness for
Capt. Pratt. The appointment of
some one else to the Carlisle school
would not be displeasing to the army
folks. but it might not be rs well for
the Indian. In the assertion of the
executive perogative, ii is to be hoped
that the education and civilization Of
the Indian may not suffer. The COM
missioner, General Atkins, will doubt
less do the right thing.
