Indian Troubles.

The Indian alarm is real,
whatever the foundation for it
may be; and it is not likely that
frontiersmen are entirely de-
ceiyed as to the probability of
serious difficulties. > In ~
The situation is certainly suf-
ficiently grave to call for pre-
caution and serious preparation
on the part of the Government.
The reported speeches of the
chiefs display a cunning sophis-
try in putting forward excuses
for revolt so ambiguously that,
if there be no war, their words
may be appealed to as evidence
of loyal love of peace. When

ways prudent to marshal suf-
ficient display offorce to induce

peacefully.
Sitting Bull and Red Cloud
are men whose successes overour
troops make them heroes in the
eyes of the young men of their
tribes. If they find in a fana-
teal craze the encouragement
their followers need to dare the
risks of the warpath, the old
leaders may be willing to Close
their careers by a stout effort
to shake off the restraints put

TIE FISANCTAL OUTLOOK.
What Henry Clews. Banker OF
New York, Says.

New York, Says.
The general financial situa-
ton is improving; but, with the
marked conservatism that pre-
walls in every direction, the re-
covery of confidence must be
expected to be gradual and slow.
1t is an encouraging symptom
that considering the past sever
ity Of the crisis, so few failures
have occurred in the Stock Ex-
change. 1t is still more so that
the yigilence of the Clearing
House with regard to the stand
ing Of its members, has disclos-
ed such general sound condi-
ton of the banks, and that the
numerous other financial insti-
buttons have exhibited no signs
Of weakness. This is the most
satisfactory evidence that the
speculative arrangements from
which we are suffering have not
appreciably involved our credit
establishments, which will prove
TO be an element Of very great
value in the coming process of
recovery. Another favorable
factor is that the course Of af-
fairs in Wall Street has not in
yolved any suffering to interior
interests, beyond a partial check
70 the free movement Of COM
mercial credit. Indeed, the
crisis Is strictly confined to the
speculative and investment in
ierests; in which respect the
situation very fayorably differs
from that Of most former up
heavals. Nor is there any rea-
son TO apprehend that the indi-
rect bearings Of the Wall street
arrangements will, for any
lenthy period, affect CONNER
cial interests unfavorably. For
the remainder Of the year, mer-
chants may be inconvincedfrom
the stringency Of discounts; but
1t Is reasonable 10 expect that,
with the opening Of the new
year, the natural reaction from
the present severe strain will
bring money 10 the cities, while
the great fall in stocks will re.

Senator Leland Stanfords affection
for his dead son does not seem to have
lost strength, even though several
years have passed since the young man
died. The Senator is never satisfied to
remain anywhere that he cannot have
a portrait of his son on the wall of his
room. When he visits New York he
always stops ut a certain hutel, and re-
quires the same apartment because i
has been furnished with such a por.
trait by himself. In the great Leland
mansion at San Francisco half a dozen
portraits of the dead boy hang from
the walls in as many different rooms,
and there are a profuslon OF similar
Gkenesses in the Senator's Washington
place OF residence.
Mrs. Sarah Helen Whitman, the last
love of Edgar A. Poe, was a woman of
exquisite beauty, whose face was a
poem and whose life was a romance.
She mourned her poet lover for more
than thirty years after his early death,
and defended him from first to last
with all woman's deep faith and
undying love. His friends were her
friends, his enemies her enemies. He
was an idol. enshrined in her heart of
hearts, to be worshiped there for ever
more. In her latter years she always
dressed in white, with veil Of the
same color thrown over the back of her
head, and she sat in IA room lighted by
alabaster lamps, whose shades were
lined with rose color.
