NEV. WORKERS AND PUBLIC SPIRIT.

At one Of our great public dinners of last
week the assertion was made by distinguished
speakcr-from out Of town-that New orkcrs
as whole are unjust TO the metropolis In
support of his assertion the critic Of our citi-
zens concluded that, while the rest Of the
country recognized the fact that this city is
making rapid strides in many directions, the
typical New-Y Yorker takes view of it which
is essentially pcssmstc, since he is continual
" finding fault with its government and docs
not hesitate to express his disapproval of pub
lie officials before they have been given an
opportunity of making a record of any sort.
1t strikes us that this point is not well taken.
We have distinct impression that the average
New Yorker is as proud Of New York and has
as exalted q conception OF her present mpor-
lance and her manifest destiny as any Of his
fcllow-men who live elsewhere can possibly
have of their respective cities. True, he may
strongly object t. the city governments but
that he does so merely attcsts that he is a
person Of intelligence, capable Of discriminate
ing between competency and incompetency.

those who have entered the ci'yS service with
so foul a reputation that to imagine they
are going to do well by the city is to indulge
in the violent geological assumption that the
leopard can change his spots-and will. In
brief the typical New Yorker, while proud Of
New York is sagacious enough TO see and cour-
ageous enough TO avOw that her prosperity
is not without an alloy. Indeed, in proper
ton to his pride is his sense of the evils which
menace her.
Now, if the critic in question had main

even conceding that their bumps Of local pride
are well developed arc deficient in positive
public spirit, there would have been less room

A STORY TUdT TUHILLS.

"Without single officer and with only
twenty of the boys That is the way one
company-the color company OF the regiment

them "two tattered and battle stained Tags
The story as told elsewhere in this paper is
only the plain, unstuded narrative Of vet
eian who was part of it all, from the meeting
in the little church in the village where the
rastor and the Sunday school superintendent,
the farmer boys and mechanics put their names
to the muster roll, to the day when the twenty
brought back their tatteIed flags with high
and honorable pride, not unmixed with sad
ness, and were mustered out. TO say of a
story that it is cas- good as a novel," or g. as
interesting a. romance" passes for high
praise. But this story of Company II of the
1I5th New-Yofk is better and more interest
ing than either, without suggesting any COM
parson: it is 80 unlike anything in the form
of felton, There is no play of the imagination
in it; more simple and unaffected recital of
a series of stirring events could hardly be con-
ceived: and yet few readers, we venture to
say, will finish its perusal without the culver

rail against the rule of ignorance and corrip-
ton against infamous appointments against

Excise laws; against gambling hells; against
the oyercrowding OF the elevated trains !;
against ticket spectators; against scores OF
other things But they do nothing. Their

are sometimes magnificent but they are never

good citizens. and 50. speaking negatively they
are. But so far as the promotion OF the COM
mon welfare is concerned, they might as well
be bad ones.
Hence it is that every wcllconsidered move
ment which aims to accomplish something

deserving of the heartiest encouragement. In
all the really important fields of reform the
laborels are comparatively few. The supply
of public spirited NEWCOMERS is never equa!

THE ARMY ~ TIE INDIAN SERVICE.

Opinions differ radically as TO the results
that have followed the employment of Army
officers As Indian agents. The consideration
which induced the Government to make this
kind of assignments from the military arm OF
the service relat d mainly TO the restless con-
dition of certain tribes. IL was thought, and
with good reason, that at agencies where there
was tho apprehension OF serious difficulty some
one should be placed i'll charge of tho Indians
who would not only be able 10 administer their
affairs generally, but also to provide against
those movements Of unfriendly bands which 80
often bring Oh critical situations and Away :
operate 10 CmbarrasS the troops. Commissioner
Morgan, Of the Indian Bureau, was not Oligi-
nay in favor of this reform, and still opposes
it as unnecessary. unseryiceable and huitiul Ia
tie discipline of his office. Some religious and
charitable influences sustain the Commissioner,
and the humane suggestion is constantly made
that since our business with the Indians is 10
civze and improve them, and not to kill them,
men trained TO employ the arts of education
and peace rather than those trained 10 employ
force should be placed in charge of the tribes
on their reservations
1t is not possible to agree with Mr.. Morgan
that there would be spirit of INSTRUMENTATION
among Army officers against the authority OF
the Indian Office were they generally employed.
lie considers himself fully warranted in cx-
pressing such a feeling, but the facts have not
been given cut on which he bases his judg-
ment, and we can be by no means certain that
they would lead the public generally TO con-
illusions similar 70 his If there il anything in
the training Of Army officers it certainly does
not tend 10 lead them 10 discriminate between
individuals placed in authority over them, and
it will be hand 10 persuade the people that
they cannot be trusted to obey any one duly
commissioned TO direct their conduct. Much
the more serious difficulty in the way of their
frequent or general employment in the Indian
service arises not from the dissemination OF the
Indian Office 10 receive them. but from their
own dissemination 10 abandon their regular
and moro congenial occupation. They receive
TO CONDENSATION additional T. their regular sal
aries, and the duties cxactcd Of them are al
ways onerous and often dangerous and trying.
They do not enjoy these duties, nor is their
feeling TO be wondered nj. If it be deter
mined to employ them at many agencies, it
would be we'll 10 make il financially worth their
while u aspire to the position. The experience
they thus secure should be looked upon a en-
ttling them to early promotion. 1t should be
badge of honor and an assurance of worth
successfully TO have administered the affairs OF
an Indian agency.
