A FruitIess Search.

SPECIAL TO THE sENTINEL.I
SAN FRANcIsco, Feb. 20.-The United
States Revenue steamer Richard Rush ar
rived tonight from a cruise among the
Aleutian Islands and in the Behring Sea
in search of the missing whaler Amethyst,
with q crew of 40 men. After leaving San
Francisco on January 2 she steamed
towards Akonton, one of the islands.
reaching it ON the 18th. 1t was learned
from the natives that in November las,
there was found some portions Of the boat
and two buckets, such as are used by
whslers for boat boilers. The natives had
not seen anything of the vessel off the
Ounalssks. St. George and 81. Paul
Islands. Nothing could be ascertained,
All the islands were visited and carefully
examined. Inquiries were made, but all
endeavors at discovery fruitless. No
body had heard or seen anything of the
Amethyst. Captain Hooper, Of the Rush.
says it is possible the Amethyst met with
disaster after leaving the Arctic in the
Pacific, where she may have foIndered in
one OF the terrific gales common in the
months of November and December. The
cruise of the Rush was attended with 10
accident, save an injury to one sailor, who
fell from a mast and broke a leg. The
weather has been intensely cold, but no
suffering among the crew was felt.

THE l. N

A correspondent of the New York In.
dependent makes a very rem arkable
statement concerning the Moody and
Sankey movement in Nashville, Tenn.
Mr.. Moody is preaching with all his
might about Christian charity and the
brotherhood of man, aud Mr.. Ssnkey is
singing the gospel of love into the will.
ing ears OF immense crowds. So far,
well, In this ATHENS of the South"
Nashville, there are about twenty
churches for colored people. The min.
listers of these churches aud their con.
gregations are rigidly excluded from the
promises of the Lord as dispensed through
Mr.. Moody. Tickets of admission are
given to white sinners. but not a ticket
to black sinners.
The color line, however, is visible only
in religion. Politics knows nothing Of it.
When a mass meeting is to be held and
votes are called for, then the colored
man is a citizen and a brother; but when
Mr.. Moody is praying for good gifts the
whites are possibly so afraid there will
not be enough to go round that they
shut the negro out and tell him to do his
praying for himself. The politics oil
Nashville are better than its religion.

Tur INDIAN TERRITORY.

The pressure upon the lands OF the IN
dian Territory is so strong that no doubt
the present Congress will adopt some
legislation looking to their opening to
settlement. Mr.. Townsend and Mr..
Weaver in the House and, Senator Van
WICK in the Senate have introduced
hills for creating a Territorial govern
ment in the Indian Territory; but a good
deal more than this is needed. The In
dian title to the surplus lands must be
~extineuished, and to do that it Is neces'
sary to get the consent of the Indians
who hold these lands by patents IRON
the Government. Nor is this all. Con-
press ought, in the interest OF farmers
and laboring men. to take great care that
these lands, when they come into mar
ket, are not gobbled up by wealthy syn
dicates of capitalists, who stand ready,
as is known, to bid in large tracts and
hone to make a very lucrative land specu'
lation at the expense of intending settlers.
The lands of the Indian Territory are
described by men who have seen them to
be the finest unoccupied on this CONT.

as much as a farmer needs in such a
country, and the Commissioner OF In
dian Affairs, Mr.. Adkins, who has been
in the Territory. is OF the opinion that
whenever these lands come into the pos
session of the Government extraordinary
care will be required. and rigorous and
unusual regulations, to keep them out OF
the hands of spectators and land monop-
olists and reserve them, as they ought to
be reserved, for the occupation of actual
farmers.
Congress has authorized several rail-'
road companies to pass ehrough the In.
dian Territory, giving them authority to
buy right of way from the Indians.
Some of these companies are said now
to be making surveys. Unless they have
charters from Congress they could not
enter the Indian lands at all; their sur
veyorsw would be expelled by the author
tiles.
Secretary Lamar holds that until Con.
gress by law provides a different policy
he is bound to protect the Indians, wher-
ever they may be, in their rights, and to
exclude white men from the Territory;
he will do this by force Of arms if it Is
necessary. Meantime the consent-of the
Indians ought to be gained to surrender
ing their surplus lands to the Govern.
ment; and that will take time. The
more prosperous Indians prefer the patri.
archal life in which they now live, and
object to all plans which would, by the
introduction of white settlers, force upon
them a new civilization, so.called. They
are not yet able to see that they cannot
much longer maintain their present po-
sition. and that, in common prudence,
it is now time for them to come forward
with an offer of their own for the open.
ing Of their surplus lands. II they wait
too long they will get worse terms.

Tuscarora Times. Review: Some of the
Nevada papers speak of the Sherman
bill as a compromise" measure. 1t
merits no such appellation. 1t is simply
a decoy bill designed to delude credulous
and Weakened silver men into a trap.
1t provides for the suspension of silver
coinage, which, once effected, the balance
of the gold bug scheme would be easily
accomplished in the near future. Ii
means the degradation of silver as a coin
