Fourteen death from yellow-feY- er dur ing the paht week. The How fever epidemic ends on lta dm hn.'ndred and seventh day. Tub latebt advices from Cabal state that the mutinous tribes, which had been Rather-in- g in General Roberts's rear and threaten- ing his are dispersing. Kearney, of the Dennis persuasion, has had another opportunity of Grant by burning him in effigy in public in San Francisco, but he didn't do it. F'what's the matter wid ye, Dinms? Four hundred Mormon proselytes are at Liverpool, awaiting to the United States. They have been officially no tified that polygamy is a crime in the country of their destination, bat this did not dampen their zeal. According to the Appeal's tally, wtolch has been correctly kppt, beginning with the nrst announcement mad ot a yellow-fev- er case, there have bee. rented to the office of tna city noara or fealth fifteen hundred and four cases and ?0ur hundred and ninety-nin- e deaths. Heports from the districts of England show that two hundred and fifty spinning factories are closed entirely, while six thousand one hundred are running on half V.nie. In Scotland seven hundred are or. half time, and in Ireland two hundred and fifty. Latest reports from tfao scene of the dis- astrous inundations in Murcia and other provinces (indicate that not less than two thousand lives were lost, and the destruction of property is Fears are ex- pressed of a renewal of the floods. Appeals lor aid for the sufferers aro being very gen- erally respwrJed to, the from England beiner especially liberal. The statistics of crime in Italy thow a fearful state of affairs. The report of the minister shows that during the past year more than two thousand murders were com- mitted, an average per million of population onequaled by any other country on tbJ face of the globe. During the amo time the number if ordinary robberies, burglaries, etc., is stated at forty thousand, while there were fifty thoueu-a- d robberies accompanied with violence. I0 her long catalogue of crime Italy stands without a peer. Jack Walsh, the undertaker of Shelby county, has been immortalized. He has been interviewed, and the result has been pub- lished published in a St. Louis paper; an out-an-o- ut daily paper but the character of that interview is questionable. The daily paper aioresaid, the for in- stance, in Riving place to the interview, should bare made a tew changes in verbi" age, etc., in order to localise the interview, In fact, those who knw Jack Walsh and his peculiarities, as well as the aptness of a St. Louis who is supposed to be up to his business, would never recogniw that as a genuine. Jack Walsh interview. It hear evidence of a happy hit of the passenger and trains. Jack got there on time, so did the interview. "When rogues fall out honest men get their dues." The craiy man of the Chatta- nooga Times haa fallen out with the State board of health, and blasts that institution us follows: No. 6 of the quarantine regulations prohibited the Carrying into Mem- phis, during the prevalence of yellow-feve- r, of cotton for purposes of ginning and baling. Dr. Plunke, ptesident of the State board of health., gave as a reason for this the danger of carrying infection to the country in cotton which bad been baled in infected quarters. This reason is absurd. The rule was not based on it, and no reason should have been given for this more than for any other of the regulations. It was part of the means to prevent intercourse between an infected city and non-infect- towns, cities and country places around the infected place. To have given up Rule 6 would have been to abandon the quarantine; and to defend the rule on the ground of Dr. Plunket'a dispatch ba&ing it on the danger- ous character of cotton baled in Memphis, made the board ridiculous. A safe rule in dealing with sick people, lunatics, children and fools is: Never give a reason for any order concerning the government ot your charge, and never allow debate on the rea- sonableness or rightfulness of your proceed- ings. Probably the State board of health has learned this lesson, and should they again be called on to quarantine Memphis, will make good un of the knowledge gleaned from experience." Another Case nf Death from Tooth. Tlnketlns. Lexinoton, Ky., October 23. Another curious chso lrom a dental operation has oc- curred in this city. Sotuo months ngo a youutr married man named William Hale had a tooth treated for destruction of a nerve. As is well known by the dental profession, the agent generally employed to produce this etidct is arsnic. The application became a worse irritant than the former exposed con- dition of tb-- j nerve, and the pain and swell- ing increased, so that the tooth had to be ex- tracted. L5ut the suppuration which hail set in did not cease with the loss of the tooth. It went cn spreading and devouring bone and muscle in its progress, until at last the whole head and face became involved, presenting a frightful spectacle, and causing the death of the patient this morning. Mr. Hale his in- surance in the A. O. U. and Knights of Mac-cnb- ee to the amount of five thousand dollars, which he left to his mother. A Ulasuatea Kofllnh F.mlfrant. New York, October 22.

He said that be wa thoroughly dinHatirttied with his vonture to Texas. The colony settled near Sin Antonio. Merrha says that they found the land poor and the prospects poor. He had intended to pay about three dollars an acre, bat he was not willing to py that for the land offered. The only desirable lands, he says, were the plan- tations near Galveston, which are held in blocks of eight hundred or more acres, at twenty dollars an acre, and therefore beyond the means of the hdglinb emigrants. Many of them have, he says, like himself, left the snot they had intended to settle upon..

Y.) telegram in the New York Times: The largest political meeting of the campaign was held in this cily by the Repub- licans last evening. The operahouso was densely packed to hear General Joseph R. Iiawley, of Connecticut. General Hawley was introduced by Mark Twain (Samuel L. Clemens), who said: "I see I am advertised to introduce the speaker of the evening. Gen- eral Uawley, of Connecticut, and I see it is the report that I am to make a political speech. Now, I must say this is an error. I wasn't constructed to make political speeches, and on that head (politics) I have only this to say: First, see that you vote; second, see that your neighbor votes; lastly, b'G that yourself or neighbor doesn't scratch the ticket.

As a pure citizen, I respect him; as a personal friend ot years, I have the warm- est regard for him: as a neighbor wkooe vegetable garden adjoins mine, why why, I watch him. That's nothing; we all do that with any neighbor General Hawley keeps his promises not only in private but in pub- lic. He is an editor who believes what he writes in his own paper. As the author of Beautiful Snow, he has added a new pang to winter. He is broad-soule- generous, noble, liberal, aliro to his moral and religious res ponsibilities. Whenever the contribution-bo- x was passed I never knew him to take out a cent. He is a square, true, honest man in politics, and I must say he occupies a mighty lonesome position. He has never shirked a duty or backed down from any position taken in public life. He has been right every time, and stood there. As governor, aa congress- man, as a soldier, as the head of the Centen- nial commission, Which increased our trade in every port, and pushed American produc- tion into all the known world, he has con- ferred honor and credit upon the United States. He is an American of Americans. Would we hal ( such men!

And now, in speaking thus highly of the speaker of the evening, I haven't said any more of hiia than I would say of myself. Ladies and trntle-me- n, this is General Hawley. Mr. Clemens was frequently interrupted by applause and laughter. At the close of his remarks, General Hawley stepped forward, and, lor an honr and a half, spoke on the is- sues of the day.

L. CLEMKX3. WHAT INDIAN AKK The Hen who mir Co Indian Wars The Mtery of tne Poplar Klver Agency. New York Sun 1 Wood Mountain, Montana, October 1. In nine cases oat of ten the Indian agent of to-da- y, even when he is not actually dis- honest, is ntteriy incapable of controlling his charges becanse of his inability to win their confidence. His situation and his powerless-nes- s to keep his promises present him in the most disastrous light to the Indian mind, and his facilities for utilizing troops and his dis- position to employ these facilities, stamp him, in the Indian's imagination, an enemy in- stead of a guardian. To this fact are to be attributed all the difficulties that have of late years painted the prairies with blood. The Indiana have learned to look upon (Gift chief or agent) as a lying rascal, who lives in a comfortable houre, has plenty to eat and to spare, and the chief end of whose existence is to invent pre- texts for breaking his word, and to call in soldiers when sharply rebuked for his sup- posed treachery. No matter how honest the agent may be, no matter how excellent his intentions in accounting for the short- comings of a fraudulent department or thiev- ing contractors, his even well-mea- nt subter- fuges are scored against him, and his every effort in behalf of those whom he is sent to govern is accepted as an act inimical to the interests of those who are under him. An- other thing, his selection of employes is in- evitably unfortunate. Prairie men and the agent can get no others are the avowed ene- mies of every redskin on the plains. They have no interest in their work beyond the in- significant wages they are paid, and they devote their time to illustrating the superior- ity of the white man over the red. The hun- gry savages sees them lolling about the agency, their nakedness well covered, their forms rotund; looks in at their windows and sees them feeding from three to five times a day; sees bales and barrels of stores piled away for pale-face- d consumption, and when he asks what there is for him is admonished with an oath to "skin out," and then when ha remonstrates against such manifest injustice is warned that unless the "skinning"' is at once commenced the army will be invoked, and "every red devil driven into the praitie like a nail." And when the battled "devil"' turns sorrowfully away, gaudy dis-- p itches as to how a threatened outbreak was put down by the firmness of the agent are sent to the fraudulent department. Illus- trative of this proposition is the experience of the agent at Poplar River, Montana, last June. For months no stores had been sent to him. During the winter a lot of stuff sent to Bismarck, for north, per- ished for want of attention. At Benton the contractor had cattle in readiness, but the Powers line of boats were makin g more money out of private contracts than they could out of the government; the June rise ras run- ning, and the steamers could carry plenty of paying freight, and ae a result the cattle waited for and four thousand Yanktonais Indians waited for the cattle. The temporizing agent foolishly concocted some stories to account for the delay, prom- ising the most reckless things "by the next boat," which came and passed without help- ing him out. In the latter part of the month Black Cattish, an influential warrior, went into the trader's camp and demanded higher prices than his people had been receiving for robes and skins. "We are starving," ho said, "and you must give us more." This was refused. "Then," said he, "we will not trade with you," and be quit the store. Frightened at the aspect of affairs, the agent sent to Fort Baford lor troops, and a compa- ny of the Sixth iofautry were sent forwaid overland, it took them a week to make the journey, a week that might have been spent profitably by the Indians had they contem- plated an insurrection. A boat arrived soon after with stores. As a matter of course, the redskins supposed them to be for themselves, but found to their disgust they were tor the soldiers. Fifty-on- e lodges packed camp and joined Sitting-Bull'- s band. "We will come back when the White Father sen Is us the food without the troops," they said. Not a few cf the agencies have been without Btores for months at a time, during wHna the agent na tuny ewui fc:a money in eta0" to pacify 1.1 LA A V T- -1 " "t ii the Indians fcy apologies and promises never fniPlled. And this, connected with the irri- tation arising from the proximity ot armed forces, has created a feeling that threatens the whole frontier. To the Indian warrior, war is a profession. Judging others by himself and his experience, war is an absolute necessity to every man who abandons the ordinary avoca- tion of life for that of arms. He cannot be made to understand that armies are for the preservation of peace or the administration of the laws. Given a man in a uniform, and there iB a man spoiling for a fight. J t is im- possible to inspire an Indian iruh a faith in the peacefi'l nature of a soldier. He looks upon a "Long Knife," as he is called, in the light of a foe, employed for the sole purpose of anything in his way. And, as soon as the agent calls for troops, the In- dian prepares for battle. It is argued that the withdrawal of the army from the west would mult in chaos. When the whole force of the government was employed in the southern States, and the crnfcaCto.s who constitute the grete strength of the war and interior departments, were employed in swindling the army, there occurred no In- dian outbreaks. It was even suggested at one time that "our allies, the Indians," might be utilised in reducing the rebellion. As the close of the war militated severe- ly against the interests of the contractors, they turned their faces westward, and they had not more than fairly started in than bodies of troops became necessary to protect their thieving operations. That is the history of the late Indian "outbreaks." The appearance ot the army and the increasing boldness of the contractors made the red men more and mora desperate, and then came a pvoposal to turn the savages over to the troops for settlement and peace; that is, pat one war- rior under the control Of another, with the that a born fighter will read- ily Bubmit to a fighter who learned the art from books. The statement is not an exag- geration, that the frontiersmen who have been slain the past two years were the aggressors. Reports show also that in every attack upon troops the soldiers have been upon the war- path, hunting, too, for ' Indians who have been driven off or cheated out of their reser- vations. Long-wind- ed recitals from longer-winde- d officials of the details of a skirmish almost inevitably read: "We came up with the enemy," etc., which means, "having bet- ter horses and longer legs, we caught up with the poor devils, whom we slaughtered to a man."

Columbus dispatch to the Cincinnati En- quirer, 22d: Miss Fannie M'Colley died this morning from an overdose of morphine, taken with suicidal intent. She had been making her home with a sister at the corner of Water and Noghten streets. Deceased was a fair-looki- brunette, aged thirty-thre- e years, and from the letters left by her there is no doubt that she killed herself because of her unrequited love for Joseph Coffey, in the employ of the Pan-Hand- le company, said to be the yardmaster at Bradford Junction. Miss M'Colley gave the alarm that she had taken poison about three o'clock this morn- ing, and efforts were made to save her life, but it wan too late. She left a long letter to her sister, in which she writes as follows: "What has changed my sunshine into darkness, my day into night? It was my unfaithful lover. The happiest moments of my life were spent with him. I never loved any man aa he. What does he return ? Un- faithfulness! oh, I dare say, hatred! We have been engaged four years. Ofttimes he would say: 'Fannie, we will soon be mar- ried.' Kind reader, you will say: 'How could you pat confidence in him?' How could I ? I loved him better than my own life. He knew this. Dear girls, do not fol- low my path. If you love a man, do not let him know you idolize him, as I have done. Do not let him think yonr heart was made to be troubled, or as a target for the arrow. Only last week I wrote him, as oft I did be-lor- e, that I bad loved him ere we met. His answer was, 'How could I help you loving me before we met, when I was engaged to another, and did not know you from Adam?' I answered last Thursday morning, asking him to come down last evening (Monday, the twentieth), and he would have cause to re- gret what he said. - He never replied. He has been the destroyer of my soul, and he would not come to save me from the jaws of death. Oh, cruel Josey, can you rest on your pillow while I pen these words?" The unhappy young woman also left a let- ter addressed to her lover, in which the fol- lowing occurs: "My prayer is that your life may ever be one uninterrupted dream of happiness. May the flowers of prosperity ever bloom along your pathway. May there be a wreath of love entwined around your heart, and may coldness never enter there. Others may love you when I have passed away, but never again while life shall last will you ever be loved as I have loved yon for six years. Now, I must bid you a sad farewell forever. Give all your people a sad adieu for me. If I have sinned against heaven, I will soon meet my just reward. Be good to yourself, and may heaven protect you. This is signed, yours forever, fannib." Fannie's people say that they had noticed nothing unusual about her except a slight sadness, nor was there any evidence of insan- ity in her letters or actions. The case is a sad one, and the seems whol- ly due to unrequited affection. Unprecedented Kmicratlon to America, Special to the Appeal.! New York, October 25. One thousand and twenty-eig- ht emigrants arrived at Castle Garden this morning. In consideration ot tbe tacts that emigration to America is un precedented in point of numbers, and that emigration in 1530 is expected to be larger even than that of the present year, the emi- gration together with the of- ficers of the society which help to take care of newly-arrive- d emigrants, have made spe- cial efforts to gather accurate emigration sta tistics concerning districts which offer the best advantages to settlers. During the present year tne new lorfc emigration com- missioners have helped about twenty thou- sand emigrants to get to the western States, and not one has returned.

Special to the Appeal. St. Louie, October 25. The official an- nouncement that the fever epidemic at Mem- phis is over, created quite a stir among the Memphians in this city this afternoon, and preparations were immediately commenced by the Memphis cotton dealers and brokers, and grocery and dry goods firms doing busi- ness here, to mo?e their stocks and resume trade at their old home as speedily as pos- sible. The steamers which left here for Memphis this erening were crowded with passengers and heavily laden with freights, and next week the Anchor line will put on extra boats to transport the goods which will be shipped to that city. Cotton factors have already ordered cotton at points below Mem- phis consigned to them here to be landed at Memphis, and by the last of next week the cotton trade of that city will be fully re- sumed.

Diplomatic Complications at Samoa- - aaumeiu communication JCead and Discussed in Cabinet Session. Speclal.to the Appeal.l October 25. Lucien B. Crooker has been appointed collector of in- ternal revenue of the second district of Illi- nois. A communication in regard to the affairs at Samoa was received by the secretary of the navy, from Captain Chandler, command- ing the United States steamer and placed before a cabinet meeting yester- day. It is dated Apia, Samoa, August 23d last, and concludes as follows: "On the twenty-thir- d of this month the British high commissioner, Sir Arthur Gordon, is expected here in one of her majesty's ships. He is just oat from England and may be empow- ered to annex tbe Samoan group or establish a protectorate. If that proves true, I shall protest against the annexation of Pagopago harbor and the land set aside or assigned as a coaling station, ceded by treaty to the United States, and go there, it necessary, to protect our station in the future. Pagopago being in a direct line from San Francisco and New Zealand and Australia, will be a very important point, especially if our com merce in these seas increases as it is likely to do, and as article second ot our treaty with Samoa surrenders that harbor to the United States, I would ad vis 3 most respectfully the immediate establishment of a coaling station, een if the amount of coal landed amounts to o ily a few tons.". Captain Chandler then t .entions receiving as part of his instructions from Rear-Admir- Rogers a telegram sent to the admiral from the secretary of the navy, as follows: "Disturbance at Samoa. Send a vessel to protect our citizens in their rights acquired by treaty. Avoid He continues: "I have endeavored to the best of my ability to avoid and to protect Americans, but I think that a well-educat- honest lawyer, without the privilege of engaging in business, is the only man who can properly represent our government here as consul, tor it requires one well versed in law and diplomacy to meet and cope with the cf affairs existing." Captain Chandler's dispatch and a number of accom- panying documents give detailed accounts of domestic disturbances connected with the conflict between the old and new parties. On the seventh of June the German consul and acting British consul made a protest to tbe American consul against the position of General tiartlett, a private citizen, in con- nection with the old government. Captain Chandler also reports that the chief's new party paid a visit to the American consul to inquire whether the United States would punish them if Bartlett was killed in war. The consul informed them that they would not be punished, but requested them to take Bartlett alive, if possible, and deliver him to tbe consul, which thev agreed to do. lne report showB the condition of anairs to be very complicated, lbere are threa d governments one, the old government party, which occupies and con' trols a portion of the territory; another, the opposition, occupying another portion, and the government of the Americas, British and German consuls over the portion which is recognized by the conflicting parties as neu tral. Tbe lew York Election How the Va rious raetions intend to vote. New York special to the Cincinnati Times, 21st: "The disposition to scratch Cornell is growing among Republicans who favor rres ident Hayes and reject the tutorsbi" " tor Ccnkling. They say; nominated to spite the r thy proVatof man"' IDA LY propose now to make themselves felt not by bolting, but by scratching Cornell and the canal-rin- g candidate for State engi- neer, Soule. In another address just issued, those independent Republicans say the ma- chine deposed from office still holds together for a . last desperate effort to regain official power, and their nominations are its final defiance to reform. In nominating the weak- est instead of the stroneest candidate to head the departments, Conkling has deliberately deprived the gubernator al contest of nation- al significance; and the of Tammany candidates by Republican mana- gers emphasizes this fact. There in another class of voters who, tearing John Kelly will have a considerable Irish and Catholic vote, are determined to vote for Robinson for gov- ernor1, and thus rebuke both Kelly and ' Uncalled for and that may be bad To-D- ay by Calling; at tbe Office at tbe Hours Hentioned.

Fourteen death from yellow-feY- er during the paht week.

The How fever epidemic endson lta dm hn.'ndred and seventh day.

Tub latebt advices from Cabal state thatthe mutinous tribes, which had been Rather-in- g

in General Roberts's rear and threaten-ing his are dispersing.

Kearney, of the Dennis persuasion, hashad another opportunity ofGrant by burning him in effigy in public inSan Francisco, but he didn't do it. F'what'sthe matter wid ye, Dinms?

Four hundred Mormon proselytes are atLiverpool, awaiting to theUnited States. They have been officially notified that polygamy is a crime in the countryof their destination, bat this did not dampentheir zeal.

According to the Appeal's tally, wtolchhas been correctly kppt, beginning with thenrst announcement mad ot a yellow-fev- er

case, there have bee. rented to the office oftna city noara or fealth fifteen hundred andfour cases and ?0ur hundred and ninety-nin- e

deaths.

Heports from the districtsof England show that two hundred and fiftyspinning factories are closed entirely, whilesix thousand one hundred are running onhalf V.nie. In Scotland seven hundred areor. half time, and in Ireland two hundredand fifty.

Latest reports from tfao scene of the dis-astrous inundations in Murcia and otherprovinces (indicate that not less than twothousand lives were lost, and the destructionof property is Fears are ex-

pressed of a renewal of the floods. Appealslor aid for the sufferers aro being very gen-erally respwrJed to, the fromEngland beiner especially liberal.

The statistics of crime in Italy thow afearful state of affairs. The report of theminister shows that during the past yearmore than two thousand murders were com-mitted, an average per million of populationonequaled by any other country on tbJ faceof the globe. During the amo time thenumber if ordinary robberies, burglaries,etc., is stated at forty thousand, while therewere fifty thoueu-a- d robberies accompaniedwith violence. I0 her long catalogue ofcrime Italy stands without a peer.

Jack Walsh, the undertaker of Shelbycounty, has been immortalized. He has beeninterviewed, and the result has been pub-lished published in a St. Louis paper; anout-an-o- ut daily paper but the character ofthat interview is questionable. The dailypaper aioresaid, the for in-stance, in Riving place to the interview,should bare made a tew changes in verbi"age, etc., in order to localise the interview,In fact, those who knw Jack Walsh and hispeculiarities, as well as the aptness of a St.Louis who is supposed to be upto his business, would never recogniw that asa genuine. Jack Walsh interview. It hearevidence of a happy hit of the passenger and

trains. Jack got there on time, so didthe interview.

"When rogues fall out honest men gettheir dues." The craiy man of the Chatta-nooga Times haa fallen out with the Stateboard of health, and blasts that institutionus follows: No. 6 of the quarantineregulations prohibited the Carrying into Mem-phis, during the prevalence of yellow-feve- r,

of cotton for purposes of ginning and baling.Dr. Plunke, ptesident of the State board ofhealth., gave as a reason for this the dangerof carrying infection to the country in cottonwhich bad been baled in infected quarters.This reason is absurd. The rule was notbased on it, and no reason should have beengiven for this more than for any otherof the regulations. It was part of themeans to prevent intercourse betweenan infected city and non-infect-

towns, cities and country places around theinfected place. To have given up Rule 6would have been to abandon the quarantine;and to defend the rule on the ground of Dr.Plunket'a dispatch ba&ing it on the danger-ous character of cotton baled in Memphis,made the board ridiculous. A safe rule indealing with sick people, lunatics, childrenand fools is: Never give a reason for anyorder concerning the government ot yourcharge, and never allow debate on the rea-sonableness or rightfulness of your proceed-ings. Probably the State board of healthhas learned this lesson, and should theyagain be called on to quarantine Memphis,will make good un of the knowledge gleanedfrom experience."

Another Case nf Death from Tooth.Tlnketlns.

Lexinoton, Ky., October 23. Anothercurious chso lrom a dental operation has oc-

curred in this city. Sotuo months ngo ayouutr married man named William Hale hada tooth treated for destruction of a nerve.As is well known by the dental profession,the agent generally employed to produce thisetidct is arsnic. The application became aworse irritant than the former exposed con-dition of tb-- j nerve, and the pain and swell-ing increased, so that the tooth had to be ex-

tracted. L5ut the suppuration which hail setin did not cease with the loss of the tooth.It went cn spreading and devouring bone andmuscle in its progress, until at last the wholehead and face became involved, presenting afrightful spectacle, and causing the death ofthe patient this morning. Mr. Hale his in-

to the amount of five thousand dollars,which he left to his mother.

Meetlaic Weneral Hawley.Polities and "Beantlfal

mow."

Elmira (N. Y.) telegram in the New YorkTimes: The largest political meeting of thecampaign was held in this cily by the Repub-licans last evening. The operahouso wasdensely packed to hear General Joseph R.Iiawley, of Connecticut. General Hawleywas introduced by Mark Twain (Samuel L.Clemens), who said: "I see I am advertisedto introduce the speaker of the evening. Gen-eral Uawley, of Connecticut, and I see it isthe report that I am to make a politicalspeech. Now, I must say this is an error. Iwasn't constructed to make political speeches,and on that head (politics) I have only thisto say: First, see that you vote; second, seethat your neighbor votes; lastly, b'G thatyourself or neighbor doesn't scratch theticket. General Hawley was president of theCentennial commission; he was a gallant sol-

dier in the war; he has been governor of Con-necticut, member of congress, and was prei.dent of the convention that nomiiv; Abra-ham Lincoln,"

General H'iey That nominated tj .ant., iwSin He say, it ras Grant, but I knowoetler. Fe is a member of my church atHartford, and the author of Beautiful Snoio.Maybe he will deny that. Uut 1 am onlyhere to give him a character from his lastplace. As a pure citizen, I respect him; asa personal friend ot years, I have the warm-est regard for him: as a neighbor wkooevegetable garden adjoins mine, why why, Iwatch him. That's nothing; we all do thatwith any neighbor General Hawley keepshis promises not only in private but in pub-lic. He is an editor who believes what hewrites in his own paper. As the author ofBeautiful Snow, he has added a new pang towinter. He is broad-soule- generous, noble,liberal, aliro to his moral and religious responsibilities. Whenever the contribution-bo- x

was passed I never knew him to take outa cent. He is a square, true, honest man inpolitics, and I must say he occupies a mightylonesome position. He has never shirked aduty or backed down from any position takenin public life. He has been right every time,and stood there. As governor, aa congress-man, as a soldier, as the head of the Centen-nial commission, Which increased our tradein every port, and pushed American produc-tion into all the known world, he has con-ferred honor and credit upon the UnitedStates. He is an American of Americans.Would we hal ( such men! So broad, sobountiful m bis character that he never turneda tmrap empty-hande- d from his door, but al-ways ga'i "nim a letter of introHunf.tiin f mHis public trusts have been many, and ieerin me sugnieer. aia ne prove TWnv'.Uiai. fure,honest, incorruptible that is Joe Hawley.Such a man in politics is like a bottle ot per-fumery iu a glue factory it may modify thestench if it doesn't destroy it. And now, inspeaking thus highly of the speaker of theevening, I haven't said any more of hiia thanI would say of myself. Ladies and trntle-me- n,

this is General Hawley.Mr. Clemens was frequently interrupted by

applause and laughter. At the close of hisremarks, General Hawley stepped forward,and, lor an honr and a half, spoke on the is-sues of the day.

The following letter from "Mark Twain"w&a read at the dinner given the Gate CityGuards, of Atlanta, Georgia, in Hartford,Connecticut, Thursday last?

EtiiuA, October 14, 1879.P. D. Pettier, Sad.:

Dear Sir Please receive my best thanksfor the invitation to meet the AtUuta sol-diers and the Putnams. I was On the pointof starting when a committee requested iaeto remain here and introduce 'General JosephR. Hawley to a political luass-meetin- g. Thiswas a great surprise to me, for I had supposedthe man Was well known. Ishall remain, of course, and shall do what Ican to blow the fog from aroand his fame.Meantime will you kindly see that the por-tion of your banquet which I should be al-lowed to consume if I wero present is equita-bly, distributed arong the public charities ofour several States and Territories? 1 wouldnot that any partiality be Bhown on accountof political creed or geographical posit'on,but would beg that all the crates be of thesame beft. I am glad to add my voice toyours in welcoming the G eorgiana to Hart-ford. Personal contact and communion ofnortherners and soetbereBrs over the friendlyboard will do mora toward obliterating sectional !iox and restoring mutual respect andetterni than any other thing that can be de-vised. We cannot meet thus too often; forwnereas we meet as nortnerners ana south-erners, we grow in breadth and stature mean-time, and part as Americ-tns- . There is notany name among the world's nationalitiesthat can oVersiza that one. Sincerely hopingthat our guests will receive a welcome at ourtown's hands which will cause them to forgetthe length of their journey and make themwilling to come agaie I ahi, truly ynurs,'

WHAT INDIAN AKK

The Hen who mir Co Indian WarsThe Mtery of tne Poplar Klver

Agency.

New York Sun 1

Wood Mountain, Montana, October 1.In nine cases oat of ten the Indian agentof to-da- y, even when he is not actually dis-honest, is ntteriy incapable of controlling hischarges becanse of his inability to win theirconfidence. His situation and his powerless-nes- s

to keep his promises present him in themost disastrous light to the Indian mind, andhis facilities for utilizing troops and his dis-position to employ these facilities, stamp him,in the Indian's imagination, an enemy in-stead of a guardian. To this fact are to beattributed all the difficulties that have of lateyears painted the prairies with blood. TheIndiana have learned to look upon

(Gift chief or agent) as alying rascal, who lives in a comfortablehoure, has plenty to eat and to spare, and thechief end of whose existence is to invent pre-texts for breaking his word, and to call insoldiers when sharply rebuked for his sup-posed treachery. No matter how honestthe agent may be, no matter how excellenthis intentions in accounting for the short-comings of a fraudulent department or thiev-ing contractors, his even well-mea- nt subter-fuges are scored against him, and his everyeffort in behalf of those whom he is sent togovern is accepted as an act inimical to theinterests of those who are under him. An-other thing, his selection of employes is in-evitably unfortunate. Prairie men and theagent can get no others are the avowed ene-mies of every redskin on the plains. Theyhave no interest in their work beyond the in-significant wages they are paid, and theydevote their time to illustrating the superior-ity of the white man over the red. The hun-gry savages sees them lolling about theagency, their nakedness well covered, theirforms rotund; looks in at their windows andsees them feeding from three to five times aday; sees bales and barrels of stores piledaway for pale-face- d consumption, and whenhe asks what there is for him is admonishedwith an oath to "skin out," and then when haremonstrates against such manifest injusticeis warned that unless the "skinning"' is atonce commenced the army will be invoked,and "every red devil driven into thepraitie like a nail." And when the battled"devil"' turns sorrowfully away, gaudy dis-- p

itches as to how a threatened outbreak wasput down by the firmness of the agent aresent to the fraudulent department. Illus-trative of this proposition is the experience ofthe agent at Poplar River, Montana, lastJune. For months no stores had been sentto him. During the winter a lot of stuff sentto Bismarck, for north, per-ished for want of attention. At Benton thecontractor had cattle in readiness, but thePowers line of boats were makin g more moneyout of private contracts than they could outof the government; the June rise ras run-ning, and the steamers could carry plenty ofpaying freight, and ae a result the cattlewaited for and four thousandYanktonais Indians waited for the cattle.The temporizing agent foolishly concoctedsome stories to account for the delay, prom-ising the most reckless things "by the nextboat," which came and passed without help-ing him out. In the latter part of themonth Black Cattish, an influential warrior,went into the trader's camp and demandedhigher prices than his people had beenreceiving for robes and skins."We are starving," ho said, "andyou must give us more." This wasrefused. "Then," said he, "we will nottrade with you," and be quit the store.Frightened at the aspect of affairs, the agentsent to Fort Baford lor troops, and a compa-ny of the Sixth iofautry were sent forwaidoverland, it took them a week to make thejourney, a week that might have been spentprofitably by the Indians had they contem-plated an insurrection. A boat arrived soonafter with stores. As a matter of course, theredskins supposed them to be for themselves,but found to their disgust they were tor thesoldiers. Fifty-on- e lodges packed camp andjoined Sitting-Bull'- s band. "We will comeback when the White Father sen Is us thefood without the troops," they said. Not afew cf the agencies have been without Btoresfor months at a time, during wHna the agentna tuny ewui fc:a money in eta0" to pacify

1.1 LA A V T- -1 " "t ii

the Indians fcy apologies and promises neverfniPlled. And this, connected with the irri-tation arising from the proximity ot armedforces, has created a feeling that threatens thewhole frontier. To the Indian warrior, war isa profession. Judging others by himself andhis experience, war is an absolute necessity toevery man who abandons the ordinary avoca-tion of life for that of arms. He cannot bemade to understand that armies are for thepreservation of peace or the administration ofthe laws. Given a man in a uniform, andthere iB a man spoiling for a fight. J t is im-possible to inspire an Indian iruh a faith inthe peacefi'l nature of a soldier. He looksupon a "Long Knife," as he is called, in thelight of a foe, employed for the sole purposeof anything in his way. And,as soon as the agent calls for troops, the In-dian prepares for battle. It is argued thatthe withdrawal of the army from the westwould mult in chaos. When the wholeforce of the government was employed in thesouthern States, and the crnfcaCto.s whoconstitute the grete strength of the warand interior departments, were employed inswindling the army, there occurred no In-dian outbreaks. It was even suggested atone time that "our allies, the Indians,"might be utilised in reducing the rebellion.As the close of the war militated severe-ly against the interests of the contractors,they turned their faces westward, andthey had not more than fairly started inthan bodies of troops became necessary toprotect their thieving operations. That is thehistory of the late Indian "outbreaks." Theappearance ot the army and the increasingboldness of the contractors made the red menmore and mora desperate, and then came apvoposal to turn the savages over to the troopsfor settlement and peace; that is, pat one war-rior under the control Of another, with the

that a born fighter will read-ily Bubmit to a fighter who learned the artfrom books. The statement is not an exag-geration, that the frontiersmen who have beenslain the past two years were the aggressors.Reports show also that in every attack upontroops the soldiers have been upon the war-path, hunting, too, for ' Indians who havebeen driven off or cheated out of their reser-vations. Long-wind- ed recitals from longer-winde- d

officials of the details of a skirmishalmost inevitably read: "We came up withthe enemy," etc., which means, "having bet-ter horses and longer legs, we caught up withthe poor devils, whom we slaughtered to aman."

He was Lo-ved-, bat Conldn't Help It

Mnlelde or by Pol-so- n,

at Oolambas, Because ofUnrequited liOve.

Columbus dispatch to the Cincinnati En-quirer, 22d: Miss Fannie M'Colley diedthis morning from an overdose of morphine,taken with suicidal intent. She had beenmaking her home with a sister at the cornerof Water and Noghten streets. Deceasedwas a fair-looki- brunette, aged thirty-thre- e

years, and from the letters left by her thereis no doubt that she killed herself because ofher unrequited love for Joseph Coffey, in theemploy of the Pan-Hand- le company, said tobe the yardmaster at Bradford Junction.Miss M'Colley gave the alarm that she hadtaken poison about three o'clock this morn-ing, and efforts were made to save her life,but it wan too late. She left a long letter toher sister, in which she writes as follows:

"What has changed my sunshine intodarkness, my day into night? It was myunfaithful lover. The happiest moments ofmy life were spent with him. I never lovedany man aa he. What does he return ? Un-faithfulness! oh, I dare say, hatred! Wehave been engaged four years. Ofttimes hewould say: 'Fannie, we will soon be mar-ried.' Kind reader, you will say: 'Howcould you pat confidence in him?' Howcould I ? I loved him better than my ownlife. He knew this. Dear girls, do not fol-low my path. If you love a man, do not lethim know you idolize him, as I have done.Do not let him think yonr heart was made tobe troubled, or as a target for the arrow.Only last week I wrote him, as oft I did be-lor- e,

that I bad loved him ere we met. Hisanswer was, 'How could I help you lovingme before we met, when I was engaged toanother, and did not know you from Adam?'I answered last Thursday morning, askinghim to come down last evening (Monday, thetwentieth), and he would have cause to re-gret what he said. - He never replied. Hehas been the destroyer of my soul, and hewould not come to save me from the jaws ofdeath. Oh, cruel Josey, can you rest on yourpillow while I pen these words?"

The unhappy young woman also left a let-ter addressed to her lover, in which the fol-lowing occurs:

"My prayer is that your life may ever beone uninterrupted dream of happiness. Maythe flowers of prosperity ever bloom alongyour pathway. May there be a wreath oflove entwined around your heart, and maycoldness never enter there. Others may loveyou when I have passed away, but neveragain while life shall last will you ever beloved as I have loved yon for six years. Now,I must bid you a sad farewell forever.

Diplomatic Complications at Samoa--aaumeiu communication JCead

and Discussed in CabinetSession.

Speclal.to the Appeal.lOctober 25. Lucien B.

Crooker has been appointed collector of in-

ternal revenue of the second district of Illi-nois.

A communication in regard to the affairsat Samoa was received by the secretary ofthe navy, from Captain Chandler, command-ing the United States steamerand placed before a cabinet meeting yester-day. It is dated Apia, Samoa, August 23dlast, and concludes as follows: "On thetwenty-thir- d of this month the British highcommissioner, Sir Arthur Gordon, is expectedhere in one of her majesty's ships. He isjust oat from England and may be empow-ered to annex tbe Samoan group or establisha protectorate. If that proves true, I shallprotest against the annexation of Pagopagoharbor and the land set aside or assigned asa coaling station, ceded by treaty to theUnited States, and go there, it necessary, toprotect our station in the future. Pagopagobeing in a direct line from San Franciscoand New Zealand and Australia, will be avery important point, especially if our commerce in these seas increases as it is likely todo, and as article second ot our treaty withSamoa surrenders that harbor to the UnitedStates, I would ad vis 3 most respectfully theimmediate establishment of a coaling station,een if the amount of coal landed amounts too ily a few tons.". Captain Chandler thent .entions receiving as part of his instructionsfrom Rear-Admir- Rogers a telegram sentto the admiral from the secretary of the navy,as follows: "Disturbance at Samoa. Senda vessel to protect our citizens in their rightsacquired by treaty. AvoidHe continues: "I have endeavored to thebest of my ability to avoid andto protect Americans, but I think that a well-educat-

honest lawyer, without the privilegeof engaging in business, is the only man whocan properly represent our government hereas consul, tor it requires one well versed inlaw and diplomacy to meet and cope with the

cf affairs existing." CaptainChandler's dispatch and a number of accom-panying documents give detailed accounts ofdomestic disturbances connected with theconflict between the old and new parties.On the seventh of June the German consuland acting British consul made a protest totbe American consul against the position ofGeneral tiartlett, a private citizen, in con-nection with the old government. CaptainChandler also reports that the chief's newparty paid a visit to the American consul toinquire whether the United States wouldpunish them if Bartlett was killed in war.The consul informed them that they wouldnot be punished, but requested them to takeBartlett alive, if possible, and deliver him totbe consul, which thev agreed to do. lnereport showB the condition ofanairs to be very complicated, lbere arethrea d governments one, the oldgovernment party, which occupies and con'trols a portion of the territory; another, theopposition, occupying another portion, andthe government of the Americas, British andGerman consuls over the portion which isrecognized by the conflicting parties as neutral.

New York special to the Cincinnati Times,21st: "The disposition to scratch Cornell isgrowing among Republicans who favor rresident Hayes and reject the tutorsbi"

IDA LYpropose now to make themselves felt not bybolting, but by scratching Cornell and the

canal-rin- g candidate for State engi-neer, Soule. In another address just issued,those independent Republicans say the ma-chine deposed from office still holds togetherfor a . last desperate effort to regain officialpower, and their nominations are its finaldefiance to reform. In nominating the weak-est instead of the stroneest candidate to headthe departments, Conkling has deliberatelydeprived the gubernator al contest of nation-al significance; and the ofTammany candidates by Republican mana-gers emphasizes this fact. There in anotherclass of voters who, tearing John Kelly willhave a considerable Irish and Catholic vote,are determined to vote for Robinson for gov-

I sought many remedies here and elsewhere, alsouse of sulphur baths, without permanent cure.

Last May a physician called my disease EczemaRodent spots appeared on my hands, head, andface, ees became much Inflamed and granulated,causing at length Impaired sight.

Internal and external remedies were prescribed bya leading physician for six montb-9-, was then Intro-duced to another, and a consultation of several lead-ing physicians was bad, when a definite plan was de-cided upon, out ail to no purpose. . .

After following advice for four months without anypermanent cure, I bought two bottles of OulicuraRolvent, two boxes of Outicura, and some Soap,and can testify with great pleasure to the effect theyhave had in my case. In eight days being nearlycured.

The physicians pronounced my ease the most ag-gravated one that has ever come under their expe-rience and practice.
