A STORY OF LINcoLN.-In the
latter part Of 1862 the 157th Penn
sylvania volunteers were stationed
ut Washington, preparatory to NOV
ing toward Richmond. For some
unknown reason their salaries had
been delayed for two months, and
the boys found themselves pretty
closely strapped" for money.
Among the members of Company
ID, was o wild, harum-scarum sort
Of fellow, hailing from Lancaster
County. From everybody he ques-
toned he received the same answer;
Haven't an ounce. Money all
went q month ago."
The poor fellow endured the ago.
ny for while, but finally, becom-
ing desperate, he got leave of alb
sence from camp one morning and
started of up G street in the direc-
ton Of the White House. Arriv-
ing there he stopped for o while
looking over the fence into the
grounds surrounding the executive
mansion and presently caught sight
Of the President walking along the
path in front of the house. just
then @ bright idea struck him.
Mastering mp his courage he stalked
into the garden and presently near
ed the President.
GOOD morning, Mr.. President, "
he said, touching his cap.
"Good morning, my man." re-
piled cold Abe :" 'swhat can / do
for You p
The soldier hesitated for awhile,
but noticing the Presidents kindly
look finally said:
"The fact of the matter is, Mr..
President, we haven't had any mon
ey for two months now, and every
one of US is dead broke and Pm
almost dead for q chew of tobacco. "
A smile lit mp the face of the
great war President as he received
this information, and then his hand
went down into his pocket. Draw
ing forth Q silver dollar, he handed
it to the "broken" volunteer and
said:
'It shan't be said that one of my
soldiers died for the want Of some
tobacco. l need his services toe
much for that. Buy some tobacco
with this, and / think by the time
it is gone you will have received all
the money that is due you."
With q gratified "thank you, Mr..
President" the soldier lifted his
cap and passed quickly out of the
graunds. The back salary was paid
shortly after the occurrence. DE.

THE INDIAN PROBLEM.
Suggestions for its SOlutiun.

The first step is a government just and
strong enough tn keep It's own word. 1t
engages TO civilize and educate the lndi.
ans, and it cannot do this under the pres :
ent system Of partisan agents and a polit-
ical Indian service. Mr.. Remington, in
his late admirable illustrated article in
the Weekly proposes ~ turn over the wild
Indians TO the War Department, aud make
II semi-military organization in the service
Of the government. General Miles appar-
emily favors the same disposition Of them.
Red Cloud saws: "The Indian Department
has almost destroyed us. Save US from IT,
Let the army take charge OF us. We
know II can help us. Let It manage our
affairs In It's own way" But II the prob
lem be 10 educate and civillze the Indians
into citizens, would the work be best &C.
complished by the War Department? An
Indian bureau which should not be po-
litical machine would be- a beginning
and such bureau the present Commits
sioner would organize II be could have
his cwn way. With such bureau, with
adequate appropriations honestly devoted
TO their purpose, with increasing schools
and sympathetic and friendly guidance
we should begin To recover Indian conf
dence In our good faith, which Is the In
dispensable condition Of any successful
Indian policy excerpt war and extermina
