A Most BarbariC Duel.

Albuquerque October 24.-The particulars of a very singular duel recently fought in Taos City are just coming to light. An Indian settler named Wankenshoe and wealthy Mexican Central man named Juan Verega repaired to a place about six miles from the town of Taos just at the break of day to settle an old grudge. The weap- ons were butcher-lnives, and the method of fighting was for each man to submit his hand to his op- ponent and have one finger cut off.
 The cutting to be done alternate ly, and the man who first evinced signs of pain was stabbed to the heart. The Indian by the toss se- cured the first cut, and deliberately taking the hand of his enemy, with quick stroke severed his finger. The Mexican never uttered a sound
 The Indian then reached out his hand and off came his thumb. This continued in silence until the Mex ican had lost four fingers and the Indian four. When tine Indian again reached for his foes left hand the latter's second, being frightened at the fearful flow of blood, sent a bullet through the Indians heart.
 The affair is one of the most bar barous and inhuman ever heard of in any land, and all the parties to 1t are we'll known.
 It is thought the Mexican will die.

There is no such thing as content ment in the world and happy it is for the progress of society that it is so. If men were content with their lot there would be social stag nation. They would be good for nothing. They would make no ef- fort to get ahead. The spur to ac- tivity, enterprise, investigation and public zeal would be gone. They would be torpid, and the race would die out. For it is the discontent ol mankind which leads to the in crease and the progress of the world.-New York Sun.

This Administration has had to explain its explanation of the con- dition of the Treasury and investi- gate its own management of the pension office in the first six months of its existence. The Indian Rights Association is protesting against its management of the Indian Office 1; the civil service reformers who be- lieved what General Harrison said last summer have appeared in pub lie with sack cloth around their loins and made public confession of their idiocy; the old soldiers have found out that the Adminis- tration docs not dare perform what it last year promised them; the business men of New York, regard less of politics, are protesting in the most earnest manner against the Administrations absurd selec- tion of a site for the appraisers warehouse; the Secretary of State is trying to facilitate commerce with Mexico, while the Secretary of the Treasury is trying to obstruct it; and the leaders of the Republi- can party in various States see their recommendations thrown in the waste basket while the offices are given to the personal connections of the Harrison family and to the men who voted for Harrison in the convention. It is a great Adminis- tration.-National Democrat.

lame in three. MT. Russ says il
 that is the alternative will go afoot
 and there is a goodly number oi
 pedestrians with him. He says, in
 a very crisp and conclusive way,
 that the Republican party and its candidate last year made distinct and definite pledges in regard to the civil service which have been noto- lriously broken, and he asks in Bos- ton, as MT. Bonaparte, another Re- publican, asks in Baltimore, "Is there any reason why the pledges of a party and the promise of the head of that party should be loss sacred than the obligations of men to each other in the ordinary affairs of lite?" Is that question answered by saying that the Republican is the party of progress? What are we, the Republican voters, to vote for? asks Mir. Russ. "Is it solely to perpetuate a dynasty of Repub- lican office-holders?" When he is told that he is not to expect perfec
 ton in parties and politicians, MT. Russ remarks that when President Cleveland yielded as President Har- rison yields to his party spoilsmen, Senator Hoar did not say that per lection was not to be expected, bat rebuked him with scathing con- demnation. But no Republican Senator scathes President Harrison. And MT. Russ adds, "Let the lead CTS who dare not rebuke a Presi dent who thus violates his obliga- gations feel the disappointment of defeat" He holds that the cause to which the party vowed allegiance "has been betrayed hy it's leaders" But he thinks that the party is still true, and should chastise it's lead CTS by defeat. If, however, instead of chastising, it tcommends and sup ports them, the prospects of Gre form within the party" will certain ly be dim.-Harper's Weekly.
