The Indian Appropriations. From v. N. T. Timet. The Indian Appropriation bill which passed the House Is the one whioh passed that body ' at the end of the Fortieth Congress, ana 1 which, being sent to the Senate, was over' loaded with amendments nntil It sank. It appropriated the sum the Uoum Com , mlttee called tor, namely, 12,413,816; . Senate nearly trebled last session by adding i Itema amounting to $1,341,1102. It now re mains to be seen whether the same disagree ' xnent will again occur. The difference in view Is this: The Ilonse bill proposed only to pay the amounts stipulated for in existing Indian I treaties, while the Senate added those neoes ; earyfor the treaties made sinoe last August by the Indian Peace Commission. The Ilonse action has the advantage of providing at onoe for an expenditure about whioh there cannot 2 a dispute. The Senate aotion has a oertaln show of reason in preoipitating the general question of our Indian policy a most import ant question, involving the whole matter of Indian treaties, Indian government, Indian Bcrents. and Indian wars. There should be no objection, apparently, to considering these two matters separately that is, adopting the House theory, to appro . priate forthwith what money is aotually, iadla- Sutably, and nrgently necessary, and then abating the later Indian treaties? and our Indian policy as a question of itself. The spirited preliminary discussion in the Ilonse, though premature, was sufficiently indicative Of the feeling of Congress and the country upon the present Indian system. What we call our "Indian policy" is only a vast quag mire, into which oontraotora tumble annually xaillionB of appropriations, making it, how ever, only more hopeless than ever. When Mr. Wood denounoes the treaty sys tem as "a fraud on the Treasury and an inj ury to the Indians," he keeps within the bounds of fact. Mr. Lawrence publicly deolares net only that "the whole Indian Bureau is rotten and a mere den of thieves," but that "treaties have been put through the Senate when there were not sue Senators present;" and the re cent abuse of the treaty-making power in re ' gard to the Indians is matter of history. At the very start, the question comes up, Are the Indians foreign powers? If not and oer " tainly while inhabiting our territory, subject , to our laws, they are not the very word "treaty" is a misnomer. Yet that word has been used of late', years, and, under cover of ; It, what is really a contract or agreement, and as suoh a matter legislation, has been ex alted to the super-legislative character of a treaty. Wa admit that difficulties surround the subject; that the status of the hostile tribes especially is anomalous; that it might be as unsatisfactory to call them Insurgents" or "rebels" as foreign enemies; that there is ' something of the nature of a treaty hanging about our compacts with them. Nevertheless, . there is no such anomaly or confusion as Justifies the subordination of the treaty- making power to the legislative power in ' Indian matters. no as to justify the former in buying and selling publio lands through treaties with Indian tribes. Mr. Julian tells as that the new administration opposes this . latter praotice, and is anxious to break it up, It is clear, at all events, that with nearly i dozen new Indian treaties pending, and the appropriations required so large, it is worth ' While to see on what general principles we " 'shall proceed, what claims the Indians really . ' have on us, and how these claims may best be satisfied. Army Changes. From the N. T. Herald. An attempt is on foot to make some politi oal capital out of certain phases of General Sherman's vittorous army administration. We hear of astonishing sympathy for this ffloer who is sent to "exile" on the Plains, or for that one who is mustered out, and alto gether that the movement of regiments from one place to another is a very suspicions and expensive piece of tyranny. It was acknow ledged on all hands that our army was too large for a time of peace, and in cutting down an army we suppose somebody must be out cut of it. Is there an officer left in who is not a faithful and good soldier?. We doubt it. If, then, any that are in had been mustered out In the change there would have been the same cause of clamor from their direc tion as there is now on behalf of the many gallant men left without places. Otherwise fcherman is doing with the army just what Porter justly does with the navy. In both services there are posts that are pleasant and posts that are not pleasant. Snail one set of offloers always have the rough and ' another always the smooth f Porter changes men from the Mediterranean to the West Indies, and from the Atlantio to the Paoiile, to equalize what there may be of hardship and what there may be of agreeable in duty. It is the same in the army. Some offloers . would desire to be always in the luxury of the Crescent City, or to enjoy the edible and other delights of Baltimore, or to forget all else in the varied dissipations of our oity, but for this others must live the neighbor of the In dian, .share his fare practically, lead a mise rable life of frontier, with even an exceedingly small ohanoe for glory. That would be uu- ' Just, and to prevent such injustice Sherman moves the army to and fro between all the points; and generous men who have been having a good time on the pleasanter posts , feel that it would be ill-natured to grumble now at Harder ones. Denmark St. Thomas From the N. Y. Tribunt. Magnificent transactions in real estate seem to have an irresistible fasoination for adven turous minds. Ever einoe a distinguished personage undertook of old to dispose of "all the kingdoms of tbe world and the glory thereof,' at a single operation, (as is reoorded In Matt, iv, 8), kindred, though somewhat less daring attempts to bull or bear the land market have been common. And, muoh as we disrelish and distrust them, we are not insen Bible to their witoherlea. Columbus was i transcendent land speculator; Veapnolus an inferior specimen of tbe breed; Washington dabbled in fancy tracts, but prudently, as became his cautious nature; Aaron Uurr was always a praotioal Lazarus and a prospective Croesus though his iuveterate passion for oneratine in spacious "grants" and "conoes eibns;" and Jefferson made one grand hit in the Louisiana purchase which baa turned the heads of half our statesmen ever since. We . must apply the brakes determinedly, or we sball be run into the abyss. . Governor Seward put us in for $7,200,000 -it . acrwn, with a heavy drain evermore, by bis -Alaska job. It was a horrible sell we would : much sooner have paid the money, and been xouwdfrom taking the territory. Bat Ilus- wM our powerful and faithful ally we eouU not afford to annoy or sour her-so we hut our eyes very tight, ani swallowed the It was a choker; but we got It down at . . . 1.il last. ii.. i n,a .-.itTtfor lobDery is quit oumu- lated by concessions. We had" not fairly swal lowed our ioebergswhen we were summoned to rinse them down with a few earthquakes. Governor Seward, it seems, had made haste to wheedle Denmark into selling us two of her three pretty islets in the West Indies for another seven millions and a half, or we might take all three (Santa Cruz, St. Thomas, and St. John) for eleven and a quarter millions I And. though the Senate has never even attempted to ratify the treaty, Mr. James Parton has written a clever pamphlet designed to prove that our honor requires the acceptance of the hard bargain and our payment of the seveu and a half millions 1 ( We fervently trust that Mr. Parton's pay for his ingenious perform ance does not depend on Denmark's getting the money.) Let us admit at the outset that Governor Seward is fully committed to the payment in question; perhaps Johnson is committed with him. Our Secretary of State originated the dicker pushed it in every way on the hesi tating if not reluctant Danes gave them no rest till he had extorted their consent to the bargain. There is no shadow of imputation resting on them in the premises. And if Mr. Parton had onlv been able to show any sort of authority in Governor Seward to bind his country by suoh a trade, his case would be a strong one. lie quotes the Seoretary tri umphantly as writing to the Danish Envoy that "the United .States" want to buy, aud will agree to pay, so and so; but "Who au thorized Governor Seward thus to commit the United States?" is the main question. lie will find that it cannot be evaded. Russia, it now appears, was quite aware that her extra ioebergs were not sold till Con gress voted the money. If Denmark was not equally well informed, the fault was not ours; for our Constitution and our history lay open before her. Mr. Jefferson was practically the Government, with the people overwhelmingly at his back, when he bought Louisiana; yet he did not hesitate to proclaim his act of no legal validity a naked assumption of power. CongresB might not merely have rejected his bargain it might lawfully have impeached him for making it. It was the acquiescence of tbe people, through Congress, that gave it validity and binding effect. Mr. rarton sums up ma case in these pro positions: I. That wo cannot repudiate Mr. Reward's bargain wltbotit lullictluK a very great and lneparable UJuiy upon a respectable nation, our good friend find ally. '11. mat ir, arier paying lor Aland. we reiuse to pay for these lslanilr, we Bland dishonored before mankind as having one rule for the strong and another for the weak. III. That hjw ever erroneous maybe the sys tem whlcu permits the Executive to commit the country to purchases of land, we have no right to hold Denmark responsible for that ey si em, nor to reiorni it at ner expense. "IV. That when a foreign government has so much as delayed the ratification and execu'lon of a properly concluded treaty with tbe United States, we have teit ourselves to De grossly wronged, and were willing to Beek redress by Violence. "V. That these Islands, In the opinion of pro fessional men, have a great nnd peculiar value, which renders their acquisition highly desirable." -To which thus responds the Tributie: I. Denmark is nowise Injured. She has done no wrong, and incurred no dishonor. She has her inlands as good as new, and may keep or sell them as she sees fit. Even were this not so, our Constitution lay open before her. and she might properly have said to Gov ernor Seward and his emissaries, "When your Congress votes the money, we will con sider your proposal." II. We paid for Alaska, because it seemed not clear that Russia understood the matter. We then gave virtual notice that we would do so no more. If that notice was not sufficient, we mean to give one now that can nevermore be ignored or deemed inadequate. III. There is no suoh "system" as Mr. Parton imagines. A vioious praotice has silently grown up, whioh we must suppress at all hazards. If we give way now, "next day the fatal precedent will plead," and we shall be gone irretrievably. Here is our Thermo pylae, and we shall defend it. Denmark has been at no "expense" in the premises and need be at none. IV. If we were ever "willing to "seek re dress by violence" in a like case, we were wroDtr. and should probably have been thrashed if we had persisted in our bullying. But there Is no suob parallel as suggested above. We insisted that Franoe should pay us, notbeoause she had promised, but because She owed. V. Bosht A decent map of the West Indies refutes this plea. If we want more territory, let us wait till it comes to us freely. Buying populous communities is at once wrong and needless. II we can only behave ourselves, additional territories will voluntarily seek admission into onr Union quite as fast as we shall be prepared to reoeive them. Purchase or conquest is the alternative of monarchies; we can have accessions enough by voluntary, peaceful, fraternal annexation. Four Tears' Suspension of the Tenure-oT- Ofllce Act. From the AT. Y. World. A The Republican leaderHn Washington stand upon the brink of one of the most damaeinz blunders ever perpetrated by a political party. The Republican Senators, divided between a repeal and an eight months' suspension of the i enure-oi-uiuce act, seem disposed to compro- 1 1 1 I 1 1! . . . uiibe an lrreconcuaoie aiuerenoe vy suspend ing the law for four years. This would be a concession to General Grant of all the liberty which he demands during his term, and would probably be accepted by him without further remonstrance, lie has extorted this concession from the upholders of the law by announcing his intention to make no removals unless he can have full liberty of action during the whole of his term. The Republicans wish all of President Johnson's appointees to be turned adrift; atd thote appointees are numerous enough to render their ejeotion an important party object. When Mr. Johnson became President, at the close of the war, there was sot a Federal civil officer in the whole length and breadth of the rebellious Slates. All the civil officers in ten large States are orea tures, besides the numerous appointments he made in the Northern States to fill the vacan cies which ooturred during his term. The proposed suspension of the Tenure-of-Offlce act for eight months was intended to afford General Grant an opportunity to remove these and appoint Republicans in their plaoes. But his refusal to use this liberty, and the known obstinacy of his charaoter, have checkmated the movement. General Graut wants a seoond term ; he knows tb at he can be re-eleoted onl y by getting the Republtoan nomination; and the ower of removal durlog the last year or two of his present term is his chief reliance for packing and controlling the Republican Con vention. His refusal to make removals dur ing an eight months' suspension of the law is an adroit and effective move, whioh compels the Republican party to give np tbe fruits of their recent victory, or else permit him to wield the Federal patronage to supplant his Republican rivals for the suooession, and dlo tate his renomination. Grant's unexpected tactics and the pressure Of the offioe-aeekers have shaken the steadiness of the anti-repeal Senators; and, according to present appear- done. Ianoes, the difference is to be oompromiaed by ens pending the law until the 4 th of March. 18 1 3, which is as great a blunder as the Re publican party oould well commit. It is a stupendous blunder, beoause it will expose both General Grant and the party that elected him to general oontempt, as unprin cipled self-seekers, who abaiidon all con sistency and all ehaine in the pursuit of sordid objects. There is no ground of principle on which General Graut oould justify his refusal to aot under a suspension for eight months which would not equally bind him to abstain from aotion under a suspension of the law for four years. A refusal to aocept a temporary suspension of tbe law for his own particular advantage can reflect credit on his character only on the supposition that he is standing up ior me nguvs ui ma omoe, ana that be scorns to sacrifice its Just authority to personal ends. Tbe eight months' liberty whioh he refuses would enable him to accomplish more valuable reforms in the publio service than the residue of the four years' liberty which he will pro bably accept. Eight months are an ample period for clearing the tervfoe of corrupt and incompetent officials, and if he appoints honest successors, there will be comparatively little necessity for removals during the re mainder of his term. On wjsat ground, then, does he refuse the proffered eight months' liberty ? The only tenable ground that can be imagined is, that he feels bound to stand up for the rights and dignity of his office, and refuses to accept as a personal favor the re laxation of a law that trendies upon the authority which the Constitution vests in the Executive. If, after refusing a short suspen sion, he aocepts a long one, he will confess that he does not act upon principle, and that his only object is to get control of the patron age to promote his re-election. lie will confess that he regards the publio interest as subordinate to his personal ambition. As between suspen sion and repeal he has declared that he will not recognize the former, but will insist upon the latter, if he now accepts a suspension during his term as a substitute for repeal, he will advertise to the country and to the world that he is a vulgar office-seeker and office-broker, who sees nothing in publio ques tions beyond the manner in which they will affect his own interests. Every consideration of prinoiple binds him to treat a long suspen-' sion of the law with the same scorn as a short one. The suspension of the Tenure-of-Office aot for four years will be the most unblushing and disgraceful confession ever made by a po litical party. It confesses that the law is a partisan device for stripping Democratic Presi dents of powers whioh Republican Presidents are permitted to exeroise. If Oeneral Grant should be rtclected, he will claim and will be allowed the eame liberty during his second term that is conceded to him in his first. If he should have a Republican successor, that suc cessor will demand and extort the same exemption which is conceded to General Grant. The Tenure-!- Office act is to operate only on Demooratio Presidents. It was enacted to ourtail the authority of Presi dent Johnson, and will come into force again only to restrain the first Demooratio President elected by the?people. If the next President should be a Democrat, and the Republicans should happen to retain a ma jority of the Senate, the law could not be repealed, and it would come into operation at the beginning of a Demooratio administration without any aotion by Congress, by the mere expiration of the period of suspension. So barefaced and unscrupulous an exhibition of partisanship, such an attempt to make the Constitution mean one thing for Democrats and another thing for Republicans, will open the eyes of the people and contribute power fully to the overthrow of this party of politi cal knaves which is now omnipotent at the Federal capital. Onr Legation In Spain. From the XT. T. Herald. The great importance of the questions grow ing out of the present struggle in Cuba makes it urgent upon the new administration to see that our interests in Spain are competently handled and looked after, and our legation to Madrid should, therefore, be put in the best possible condition, with a live and bold repre sentative of the ideas of the President at the head of it. At the moment when least ex pected some question may be sprung by the oourse of events which will require immedi ate but judioious handling, and Minister Hale, who has been now for some years in Europe, can hardly be in suoh thorough rapport with the administration as our needs require. Besides, the quarrel which has so long ex isted between himself and the Seoretary of Legation has in a large degree diminished the moral power of the mission and created the necessity for the infusion of new blood into it. Anew seoretary has been recently ap pointed, but it cannot be claimed that he shall inspire the head of the legation with the new ideas which have germinate! here in the past six months, and which the fires of the Cuba revolution are ripening in the minds of the American people. The importance of the questions pressing upon us require a first class man in Madrid, and we hope President Grant will soon give the matter his personal attention.' ROOFING. R E A D Y ROOFING.
