AN EXPLORING EXPEDITION.

In consequence Of the belief Of so many
people in Utah in the truthfulness of the
Book of Mormon, the WORK OF the syndicate
formed by A. j. Miller, of Evansville, In
diana, for the scientific exploration Of Cen
tral America viii be watched with interest
in these parts. Mr.. MILLER, who stands
at the head of this movement, has for
long time been interested in the mystery
which overshadOws the ruined cities and
temples of Central America. There are
voices in those old ruins if they can only be
made to speak. They are the monuments
Of a lost civilization, and if possible they
should be made to relate whence it came,
how it rose and how it sank into decay, that
the present generation of men may have the
benefit Of the experience Of those great ma
lions that once inhabited this splendid con
tinent. That these nations were great,
that their civilization was far advanced,
even grand, we have ample evidence. The
remains Of their mighty works of art, their
pyramids, temples and ruined cities, though
silent, are witnesses competent to establish
those facts. Let no one doubt their
extent and grandeur. One Of the
most thoughtful Of American historians
has said: Considering the vast extent of
these remains Chat is, the remains of an
Gent American civilization), spreading
over more than half the continent, and
that in Mexico and South America, after
a lapse of an unknown series of ages, they
still retain much ancient grandeur which
Times effacing fingers have failed to OBJ
literate, it is certainly no wild fight Of the
imagination to conjecture that in ancient
times, even coeval with the spread of
science in the east, empires may have
tiourished here that would vie in power
and extent the Babylonian the Median or
with the Persian; and cities that might have
rivaled Nineveh, and Tyre and Sidon; for
OF these empires and these cities, the plains
of Asia now exhibit fewer. and even less
imposing relics, than are found Of the for
mer inhabitants of this country Wewish
Mr. MILLER and the syndicate of leading
daily papers engaged in this enterprise
great success. Wrest if you can, gentle
men, from the silent lips of these monu-
ments of ancient civilization, the story they
must know.

"MELICAN MAN MUST CO."

The bard said that worms would turn
being trodden on, and even doves will peck
in safeguard of their brood, but who ever
believed that JOHN CHINANAN, that almond
eyed picture of patience, whose counter
ance always reminds one of a "reverential
CALM would ever be guilty of retaliation!
Or, who ever thought that the slumbering

awakened to respond to the shrill cry Of
the celestials that Mclean man must gOI'
Such is the case however. 4 heather, one
WoU KwoNG REY, formerly of the Chinese
embassy at Washington, advocates an eX-
pulsion Of every American IN the service of
China as a reprisal for the exclusion of the
Chinese from America. Only a short time
ago, in fact in the current number of the
North american RcriclU, Mr.. YAN PHoU LEE
boasts that China's navy would put the
American navy to shame, and now his
heather brother in Shanghai has the
audacity to refer to our navy in con-
temptuous terms and declares it
would be powerless in an aggressive move
ment. That's all very WELL Messrs You
PHOU LEE and Won KwONG REY, but
Americas trust is not in her navy, not in
her army, but in her cheek, in her Yankee
ingenuity that on occasions and instanter
will improvise means to lick all creation
with China thrown in. Evidently Mr.
Won KwONG RRY has net read FRANK r.

we want to, and we can exclude all Chinese
from our shores and let Christian toughs

A VILE SUGGESTION.

The dispatch in yesterdays issue of THE
HERALD which announced that the COM
missiOners appointed to negotiate the pur-
chase of Cherokee lands in the Indian ter
ritory were summoned to be in Washington
not later than the 18th inst, contained also
this remarkable PASSAGE "Should the In
dams refuse to sell, an effort will be made
in the next Congress to take the land with
out paying a cent" Now, such talk as
that is damnably infamous. It may bear
the stamp upon it of American aggressive
ness. but it would be nothing less than
robbery-a breach of faith, disregard of
treaty obligations that would brand forever
the United States with shame AMI infamy.
The Cherokee Indians hold the title to their
lands under a patent granted by the United
States. in which reference is made to the
several treaties between the Indians and
the United States and description OF the
tract of land ceded to them by said treaties
which includes the tract Of 100000
acres now sought for by the government
and conveyed to them by the aforesaid pat
ent, of which the following is an extract:
Therefore, in execution of the agreements and
stipulations contained in the said several treat
jes the United States have given and granted,

The ALEXANDRIA (Va.) Gazette says: mo
country or state can afford to be unjust to
its subjects. The province of Quebec more
than a hundred years ago confscated the
property of its Jesuit subjects. 1t is now
about to pay for it. The United States
government has confscated the property of
the Mormon church in Utah. 1t must pay
for it sooner or later.'' 1t yet remains to
be seen if the supreme court Of this coun-
try can sink to the same level as its legisla-
tive department did when it authorized by
an infamous statute the steal to which the
Gazette refers: if it shall take that course,
then what is predicted by our esteemed
Virginia contemporary will come to pass,
viz: The government will pay for it sooner
or later. ITO cast away shame and dis
honor is the first business of great ma
tion," says the peerless GLADSTONE, and
some time the United States will be great
enough and grand enough to restore that
which may be stolen by reckless blather-
sixties of to-day. 1t can not be doubted, it
is as sure to come to pass as it is that JUS
tice is eternal

and by these presents do give and grant, unto
the said Cherokee nation, the two tracts of land
so surveyed and hereinbefO.e described, con
tanning in the whole fourteen millions, three
hundred and seventy four thousand, one hundred
ard tlirty-fve acres, and fourteen hundredthS
of an acre, to have and to hold the same, to-
gether with all the rights. privileges and ap-
purtenances thereto belonging 10 the said
Cherokee nation forever.
The only restrictions placed upon the
absolute control of these lands are that the
United States shall have the right to per-
nit other tribes Of red men to obtain salt
upon the western prairie; that they shall
not dispose of their lands to a foreign
power, and that in case the Clorokees be
come extinct the lands shall revert to the
United States. 1t is not likely that pro
position limited at in the dispatch would
ever be regarded with favor by Congress,
but the mere suggestion of such scheme
within the halls of our national legislature
should meet with such storm of indig-
nation as would overwhelm the mover of it
with deserved shame.

O OF our representatives abroad, the
American consul at Valparaiso, is in sad
state of mind. He has discovered that the
year before last Chill imported SIS, 100000
worth of foreign goods. The consul is not
troubled by this fact, but he has learned
from an examination of the official reports
that of the aforementioned lot the United
States contributed only 1920, 900, and this
is what is worrying the life out Of the con
sui. The gentleman sends sOrrowful
wall to his superiors, and urges them to
take steps looking to an Improvement on
this condition of things. The consul
should possess his soul in peace. The
United States can struggle along and pay
debts as they shall fall due even if we lose
all the trade of Chill, and the consul's sal
airy is absolutely safe. The matter is not
worth shedding tear over, much less of
tearing ones hair on account of it.

ACQUISITION OF TERRITORY.

Because The HERALD suggested, the
other day. in commenting on the announced
policy Of territorial acquisition by the ad-
miuistration. the island OF Cuba and some
Of the Pacific islands being mentioned, that
possibly there might be foreign objection to
the proposed requirement Of title, an
esteemed Republican exchange falls afoul
of our neck, and asks: what is there to
fear: If we pay our money and the trans
fer shall be made, assuredly we can hold
the property against the seller and against
the world" Our assailant then goes on to
tell how the United States bought Florida
from Spain, Louisiana from Napoleon,
territory from Mexico, and Alaska from
Russia. and tells how we have had no diff
Guilty in maintaining the proprietOrship,
None of which talk comes within gunshot
of the present proposition as regards Cuba
and the Pacific islands. None of the cases
cited is at all parallel to the one now
u. The United States have purchased
vast areas Of territory, but in every in
stance there has been a willing seller, to
whom the cash was of more value than the
land. Alaska was Of very little account to
Russia; in fact, it was thing Of expense,
thesemblance of a government which was
maintained costing many times the revenue
derived from the ice-bound territory. The
money was worth much more to Russia
than Alaska, and the latter was worth
more TO US than the money. France sold
Louisiana because the Emperor was wise
enough to understand that he couldn't
possibly hold the territory by the side of
the young and vigorous republic. Spain
did the same as to Florida. In every case
there has been good and sufficient cause
for selling and an excellent reason for buy
ing, and in every instance there has been a
willing seller. With regard to Cuba the
case is entirely different. The island is not
for sale. Spain is not eager to dispose of
her most valuable possession. The only
way in which we can acquire the island is
to pursue the course that the robber would
pursue if he wanted piece of property
which he couldn't or didn't want to buy and
pay for. The United States can take Cuba
and hold it against Spain, but to do so
would cost US more every twelve months
than the island is worth. This govern
ment is not acquiring territory in that way
and Mr.. BLAINE cannot induce it to adopt
the plan suggested.
When the United States government goes
away from home for land which it does not
need, it will make a mistake: and it does
not need Cuba, nor an island in the Pacific
nor balloon station on the moon. Nor is
it necessary for this nation to get into a
quarrel with any part of the world simply
to crafty an administration that wan IS to
be dashing and aggressive.

WHETHER OR not the fools are all dead it
is evident that the sharpers and swindlers
think some of them are still living, or they
would not be feeling out for them with
such persistency. Before US is another Of
those circulars which rogues send to men
who are thought to be rogues or simple
tons, and in which the senders offer to sell
counterfeit currency for about one-fourth
its face value The New York swindler
who makes the tender in this instance,
mistook his man, for the latter is not traf-
ticking in bogus money. But there are
lots of fools in this world who permit
themselves to be duped by the cunning
scoundrels. The sharpers who issue these
letters are said to thrive amazingly. The
dupe dare not let it be known that he sent
money to buy counterfeits, hence the swim
der is comparatively safe from prosecu
ton. The latter pockets the good money,
gives no bad money in return, and chucl1les
at the simplicity of the other fellow who
would be just as much of a scoundrel as he
if he had the opportunity.

Dressing Children.

For play or school the palmer the dress
for children the better it is for both pa
rents ,and children. for it is torture for
children to wear gown that Is on their
tender little consciences. The more active
and healthy the child the harder it is for
it to be restrained by the ever present re-
membrance of that pretty dress that cost
SO much money and labor, and that must
not be soiled or torn. Dark blue flannel
or calico, cashmere in dark colors, and
linen and the indestructible nankeen,
are all good, sensible materials for ordi-
nary dresses for little girls, and in them
they can move unrestrainedly and have
chance to develop healthy bodies,
which are the foundations Of happiness
