Forward!

Dreamer, waiting for darkness With sorrowful,
Linger not in the valley, bemosning the day that
Is done,
Climb the eastern mountains and welcome the rosy
skies
Never yet was the setting SO fair as the rising
sun!
Dear is the past its treasures we hold in our hearts
for aye;
Woe to the hand that would scatter one wreath Of
Its garnered flowers;
But larger blessings and honor will come with the
waking day
Hail, then, tomorrow, nor tarry with yesterdays
ghostly hours.
Mark how the summers hasten through poisoning
fields of June
To the purple lanes of the vintage and levels OF
golden corn;
"splendors Of life lavish" runs natures mystical
tune,
"For myriads press to follow and the rarest are
yet unborn"
Think how eager the earth is and every star that
To circle the erander spaces about Gods throne
Never the least moon loters the largest sun de-
Forward they roll forever those glorious depths
to see.
Dreamer, waiting for darkness with sorrowful,
dropping eyes,
Summers s and suns go gladly. and wherefore dost
Climb the hills of morning and welcome the rosy
The Joy Of the boundless future-uay, God him.

ttvea OF the CAroltnes.
Herbert L. Rand the new consul to
Ponopi, says the communication received
from his brother, Rev. Frank Rand. who has
been missionary in the Caroline Islands for
the last sixteen years, confirms the news Of the
recent fighting on the islands between the ma
tives and the Spanish soldiers, Of which men-
ton has been previously made. Further de-
tails show that in the first battle the Spaniards
were repulsed and forty Of them killed. Soon
after that Spanish man-of-war bombardsd
several villages and troops afterward went
ashore and burned . number Of houses, includ-
ing the kings palace and the missionary build
ings which were on the islands adjacent.
Later a company Of fifty soldiers landed ct
Jana and set fire to the buildings there. The
natives attacked them and all but one, includ-
ing an officer of high rank, were killed. Qua
was afterward shelied. Groves Of cocoanut
and bread fruit trees we're destroyed. On the
Sunday following detachment of Spaniards
effected q landing on Ponopi, and sixty Of
them were killed, the PonopiAns losing only
thirty. On the Saturday following another
party landed and burned all Of the
houses Of the natives church, school house and
mission buildings on the island, including Rev.
Rand's house, in which there were several thou
sand dollars worth of Ponopi books and great
lot of personal property belonging to the mis-
slonaries. The women and children were
then loaded into small boats and taken to the
Tested. Consul Rand will ask the government
to station one Of the men-of-war recently or
dered there at Ponopi until Affairs are finally
settled

LEAVING THE HOSTILES.

Squaws Come in to Pine Ridge-ILdiana
Fighting Among Themselves.
Special Dispatch to the New York Herald.
PINE RIDGE AGENCY, Jan. 9.-Small squads OF
women and children can be seen at almost any
hour Of the day coming slowly down the hill
north of the agency, footsore and weary from
their long tramp Of eighteen miles over the
frozen prairie and through the deep ravines
that intervene between here and the hostile
camp. The squaws are on foot with but few
exceptions and usually are leading two or three
pack horses loaded down with their possessions,
consisting of bedding, cooking utensils, &c.
There appears to be constant quarreling be-
tween the factions composing the hostile camp.
One faction belonging on this agency is strongly
disinclined to go to war and the other faction.
being the Indians belonging at Rosebud and
Kicking Bear and Short Bull, appear determined
to bring about q battle, no matter what the
consequence may be.
Squaws report the two factions have sep
arated. but are still encamped but short dis
lance apart.
The hosties have an abundance Of food and
appear to be able to obtain more whenever
they wish to. They evidently have no fear Of
running short of beef, as Indians who have
come through the section Of country where
they are encamped say that beef carcasses are
lying in every direction, with only the tongue
moved.
Small bands Of hostiles are said to almost
nightly sneak through the military Gordon
about them, go to some of the stock ranches
outside, herd together bunch of cattle and
return with them to the hostile camp. Scat
tered as the military force is over the large
country they are patroling. makes it impossi-
BILE to intercept bands of two or three who wish
to sneak through the line.
The following bulletin was issued by Gen.
Miles today:
He Dog, Jack Red Cloud and about seventy
five or one hundred came in last night and
more are on the way They decided in council
Yesterday to all come in, but they change their
mind every few hours. Their camp is per-
feet pandemonium, fighting and quarreling
among themselves. There is no head TO the
hostile elements, who are mostly young des-
peradoes, perfectly frenzied, destroying their
own property, beating their own people, want
ing to fight, but afraid Of the consequences of
their own acts.

THE DELAMATERs ARRESTED.

A warrant was issued yesterday in Meadvills,
Pa, for the arrest Of g. B. Delamater, G. W.
Delamater, late republican candidate for gov

and upward, knowing all the time that they
