to write Inc the Sd instant, with reference TO the

In the quite unofficial conversation which
had in your absence with Mr.. Vignaud, In April
last, and which you good enough 70 mako

quite disposed to endeavor 10 find conditions upon
which the existing rule might be modified, but
that it expected its friendly intentions would he
reciprocated by the United States Government.
The difficulties of which had given you glimpse
have not been, fear, attenuated by the measures

yBY TELEGRAPH TO TIE TRIBUNE


Washington, Aug. 28.-The correspondence ~
Gently submitted to the Senate in reference TO the
unjust discrimination directed by the French Gov
ernment against American pork contains two diplo-
matte notes-one from NJ Ribot, the French Min.
lister for Foreign Affairs to Minister Reid, and the
reply Of the latter which has attracted almost a.
much attention as did Mr. Reid's able prescnta-
tion of the American case in his note Of July 81
which has already been published IN The Tribune.
These two notes ere dated July II and July %
respectively. In his reply TO N. Ribot, Minister
Reid presents what may be called the ethics of
the controversy, in contradistnction to the
economic and commercial aspects Of the question,
which he elaborated in his note of July 3. The
fact that the friendly and prompt redress Of real
and supposed grievances, when once brought to
the notice of the Government of the United States,
has met no recognition whatever on the part OF
France is, it is needless TO say, the principal
reason why leading men of both parties in Con-
gress feel averse to going out Of their way
in order to please so unresponsve Ministry as
that which now controls public affairs In Francs
and which seeks to prolong its official existence
at the expense of international comfy and Justice
1t is an open secret here that it this feel
ing the part of majority of the members OF
the Senate Committee on Finance which led to
the restoration of the duty works of art, placed
by the House the free list in anticipation that
such action would be regarded by the French
Government as an evidence Of the friendliness
and the goodwill of the United States, and would
lead TO removal of the unjust discrimination
against American pork. The correspondence SUBJ
mitted to the Senate shows pretty conclusively
the ilusory nature of such anticipations The
fact that it was called for, taken in connection
with the able speech delivered yesterday by Sena-
tor Davis, who represents in this regard large
body on both sides of the Chamber, seems to
indicate desire on the part of Congress to apply
the principle of retaliation in kind if the French
Government should continue its present policy Of
| commercial hostility to the United States.
| The two diplomatic notes referred to are given
| in full herewith:

This furnishes lively industry to
many fishermen of the north. who go
out in fleets as soon as the ice begins
to come down and race for the bergs
and fields. The catch averages about
$1,000. 900 worth each year, but the
business is perilous and the risks are
great. 1t is peculiar fact, that has
been lately demonstrated, that all ice
does not form on the surface of the
water, but often makes in from ten to
fifteen fathoms down. Articles that
have been lost overheard have been
found in cakes of ice months or years
after. AS they are heavier than the
water and could not float. this is ac-
counted for by the explanation that
there are spots in the under-current of
the water that are colder than on top
and ice forms when it could not do 50
above.
The photographic Office has been do
ing a great deal to get reliable infor-
nation about the movements of ice in
the lines of steamers across the
Atlantic, and has prepared several
forms and charts that are given to all
marines who will fill them out in ex-
change for any other information that
they may want. ALI ice sighted is put
down on the chart, with the date and
the location. and from the data thus re-
ceived office is enabled to draw result
ant averages as to the probable loca-
ton of ice in the more frequently
Travelled lines. The present year has
been unusual in the number and size
of the bergs that have been sighted,
their appearance having been much
earlier than ever before. 1t is esti-
mated that fully $1O0, 900 year would
be saved in coal alone if steamers could
sail in such courses that they would
not meet ice i'm their routes.

The FUTURE OF MAN.

He Is Destined to Become.

It must be confessed that man has
had long inning. Perhaps it is true
that he owed this to his physical
strength, and that he will only keep il
hereafter by intellectual superiority, by
the dominance of mind. And how in
this generation is he eqHipping himself
for the future? He is a money-makin2
animal. That is beyond Dispute.
Never before were there such business
men as this generation can show
Napoleons of finance, Alexanders OF
adventure. Shakspeares of speculation,
Persons of accumulation. He is great
in his field, but is he leaving the intel.
lectual province to woman? Does he
read as much as she does? Is he be-
coming anything but newspaper
made person? Is his mind getting tc

but of what sort? With the exception
of a conversation club here and there,
and a literary club, more or less per.
functory, are they not mostly social

To the east of and adjoining the

dian settlement. Mayocoba, where live
on tract of perhaps 900 acres some
800 descendants of the branch of the
Aztecs called Mayos, now intermixed
with Il considerable percentage of
Spanish blood. Most of the land is un-
cleared. few acres being all the land
required for cultivation by the natives,
and being all they can till with the
ancient means and methods employed
by them.
The people are quiet, docile, honest,
unlearned, and, though more industri-
Gus than the Northern Indians, are by
no means enterprising. Their needs
are few, their surroundings the most
primitive. Their carts. their cooking
utensils, their plows, their OK yokes,
their contrivances for spinning and
weaving, their water jars-everything
about them is as in the time of Christ.
The native civilization here is like

were here from Chicago, New York

TOO MUCH MONOPOLY.
The Springer Bill Preferable to the
Present Condition.

EDITOR CHIEFTAIN:-As I am a
subscriber of your valuable paper
l would like to say something
about affairs in this neighborhood.
1t is settling up very fast, but
principally by leasers. There are
some men here that have as many
as twenty leases let, these leases
running from ten to fifteen years.
Now these leasers are fencing
with one and two wires and our
horses, cattle and hogs are bound
to suffer. Our honorable principal
chief Joel B. Mayes, recommend
ed in his message that something
should be done in regard to this
leasing, but it was passed over as
usual. IL makes one think that
our councillors have tonne leases
let. We cant't blame them very
much. They passed a hay law,
but this hay land may benefit a
few only, as the law is all claimed
from the Kansas line to Vir6igris
river for a mile on each side OF
the Kansas 4 Arkansas Valley
railroad and occupied by lsasers.
1t prohibits anyone from cutting
hay in oae-quarter of mile from
any improvement. Now that is
very good as far as it goes; but on
the other hand a man can bring in
a thousand head of cattle to eat
out the grass all around a place and
perhaps the real owner lives in
New York. This makes il very
unhandy for women or children
that have 10 do the milking to gel
-four or five cows out of a herd Of
four or FIVE hundred. Our Law
only protects a few and for that
reason / am in favor of allotment,
and stop this public domain bust
ness. Nearly all the people Of
this district have something to say
=bOnt the Cherokee strip, but l am
in favor of home protection. This
is what the platform of both polit-
ical parties of the Cherokee nation
promised. What have they done
towards it7 Nothing. l do not
want a territorial form of govern
ment extended over us If cur own
law car and viii protect US; but il
not protected, l would be willing
to accept theiSpringer bill in full
without any amendments. There
is not a public school between Ca
ney river and Virdigris river and
the Kansas line for Cherokee chill
dren. Our seminaries are used
for few pets, so what benefit do
we derive from our great wealth,
when it is monopoliEed by a few ?
