According to an item from Dead wood,
D. T„ indians must have a horror of be
ing hung, at least by other hand# than
their own. The dispatch says that a
few months ago three Indians were
trie*! and convicted of the murder of
Private Leo Bader, Second cavalry and
sentenced to be hanged at Miles Pity,
Montana, July 7. On the same day of
the sentence two of tbein committed
snidde by hanging in their cells. The
third was pardoned by the governor.
Abont a month ago another Indian wa#
tried and convicted of the murder of a
Dutchman at Terry # landing and sen
tenced to be hanged at the same time
and place as the others- On Sunday
night he was found to have committed
suicide by hanging.
Dan Sicklsa, the man who shot FhiliP
Barton Key, ie at Washington, and i#
mentioned for Secretary of War, Hayes
being much please*! with the suggestion.
Dan Sickles was a democrat of the
Buchanan school and a warm supporter
of Bnchanan'a administration aP
through. There Is nothing wrong in
that—only republicans can not find
language to express their displeasure of
Buchanan and his policy. But Dan
Sickles got hia fingers into the (at flesh
pots of the war, and now votes radica
and that makes him a favorite with the
crowd that hug Moeeby, Longstreet
Key and other rebel general# that shot
against the Union and vote the radical
ticket.
An item of news from England says
An exciting scene oocamnl in the house
of commons last night.
Well, what of it—don't exciting avne#
occur often in the house# of folks that
want to be more than common T
Harriaborg sporta a maa With five
wirea, and on 9he was honored with
quarters in the Dauphin county jail.
His name is C. A. Carl, bos one wife in
Indiana, one in Ohio, one in Maryland,
one in Pennsylvania and one in Geor
gia. Carl published a directory in Har
risbnrg a few years ago, and while there
married his fourth wife and obtaiue*!
several watches from Harrisburg jewell
ers by representing that he had consid
erable sums of money in bank. He sub
sequently appeared in Georgia, where he
married a lady who owned a valuable
plantation. He was brought on a war
rant from the Governor of Georgia, and
committed to prison, in default of f13,-
000 bail, in two cases of false pretence*
and one of bigamy, the latter preferred
by his Harrisbnrg wife.
"It is related of Prince Napoleon,
says the Paris correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph, "that when Prince
Louis Napoleon left on his ill-fated ex
pedition to the Cape he expressed his
regret at the step which his cousin had
taken, remarking that if he returned
with a slight wound we would have
done nothing to gain any prestige, and
that if he were killed outright that
would be a grave misfortune. 'For,'
said he, 'one might imagine that, for
political reasons at least. I might fee!
some secret satisfaction at such a result,
but I declare that such is not the case,
and that if anything serious were to oc
cur I should find myself much embar
rassed.' The Priace may have changed
his mind since then, for circumstances
often create an instantaneous revolution
in men's modes ofjndging of things :but
although the position of chief of the im
perial party may be a brilliant one it
certainly is not withont its trials as well.
What seems to justify the snrmise that
Prince Napoleon is nndecided as to the
conrae which he should finally adopt is
his extreme reluctance to come forward.
B'hen he received the pressing telegram
which informed him of the death of
Prince Locis Napoleon and summoned
him instantly to Paris be asked hesitat
ingly if it were really official. Moreover
it will be remembered that Prince Napo
leon delayed bis departure some say on
purpose to avoid an interview with M.
Rouher. Be this as it may, it is evident
that the man who formerly went by the
name of the 'Cesar Declasse' has dis
played little or no eagerness to respond
to the historical cry of'Le Roi est mort;
rive le Roi!' The Prince mar perhaps
be feeling his way and calculating the
chances for and against success, since it
is certain that many of the Bonapartists
will fall away and refuse to support
him.
It will please pensioners to know that
there are to be no more examinations
of pensioners already on the rolls. Eve
ry two years the pensioners were requir
ed to go before a medical board and be
examined as to the nature of their ioju
riee. This was a great expense to the
wounded veterans, and was of no real
benefit to the government, as pensioners
who were on the rolls for years are cer
tainly not now recovering in any degree
from their hurts. The examinations
was done away with at the suggestion of
the pension commissioner, Mr. Bentlev,
by a section inserted by a recent act of
congress.
A stalwart organ in lowa considers
the negro of the field and comes to the
conclusion that—
"All over the South be is throwing his
bhllot for rebels and traitors, when he
votes at all. .
"He is too cowardly to vote his con
victions, or too stupid to have convic
tions.
"When the stalwarts get into power
in 1880 he must either be disfranchised
or compelled to vote right.
"The free nigger is a fraud.'
If a Democratic organ bad only said
that the free nigger was a fraud and
ought to be disfranchised or compelled
to vote right now !

THE HISTORICAL EPISOOX REVIVED IT. X!
THE OCVASIOS.
(Washington Co. i't. Ixinis Globe Demo
crat)
In discussing the (.onkling-lamar at
fair, which now seems to have vanished
in words, it is evident from the conver
sation of Republican Senators that tbev
are not entirely in sympathy with Mr. (
Conkltng. Several of them, rectninting
some of the former controversies of a
similar character, in which the Senator
from New York haa been a conspicuous
and an aggressive party, recounted tin
time of his parliamentary tiit with
Blaine on April 30. I'*'#>. The subject
under dis*-ussion was the inveatigation
of Provost .Marsha! General Fry for
frauds charged bv Conkling in the Pro
rost Marshal's Department of the Best

and charged that Conkling w.l# prom-, u
;or in the i-ose, and produce*! u 'rt-r
from Assistant Se* retary of B *r ! na
toUonklifl?, and read the law against
the latter actin;' '"any such capacity.
This Conkling denied '"
ing to interject a rcnia'*. tonEitiig
said, "I do'not wish to have any ntng t >

even so much as to yield to bun t <•

the least idea how profonndlv ln.lifler

would hardly take the trouble t-> rise
here and express his opinion. And. in
apologizing to the House for delaying |
the proceeding#, be characterized
Blaine's interruption- a- "nngentleu. iii
ly and impertinent." Blaine, awaiting
his opportunity, t#ik the floor, and
said : "As to the gentleman's cruel sr
casin, I hope he will not be too w-v.-re.
The contempt of that large-minded g>-n
tleman is so wilting, his haughtv ilis

jetitic, snpereminent, overpowering, tur
kev gobbler's strut has been s*> crush
i;ig to myself and all the member# of
this House, that I k- o* it was an act of
great temerity for me to enter upon a
controversy with him. I know that
within the last five weeks, as members
of the House will recollects, an extra
strnt has characterized the gentleman -
bearing. It is not his fault; it is the
fault of another. That gifted and satiri
cal writer, Theodore Tilton, of the New
York Independent, spent some weeks in
this city. His letters, published in that
paper, embraced, with many serious
statements, a little jocose satire, a par'
of which was he statement that the
mantle ofthe late B'inter Davis had fai
(en upon the member from New N ork
The gentleman took it seriously, and it,
has given his strut additional pomposity j
The resemblance is great. Hyperion to
a Satyr; Thensitre to Hereule#; mud to
marble; dunghill to diamond; a singe.l
cat to a Bengal tiger; a whining puppy
to a roaring lion, -hades of the mighty
Davis, forgive the almost profanity of
that jocose satire." The member from
New York kept his seat in silence.
Since that day to this no word of a per
sonal nature has been exchanged be
tween these gentlemm. In debate, at a
public meeting at an evening entertain
ment, or at a dinner party, they meet
but never speak. Their conduct, how
ever, tempered by the proprieties of
good society, has l>een so directed that
their personal hostility would not be re
cognized by persons not cognizant of
their relations.
Mr. Thurman writes to a friend in
Ohio Concerning the late session of
Congres? "In ra y judgement no ses
sion of Confess has done more for the
vindication of the principles of Ameri
can liberty. We have successfully
maintained'the principal thai the bayo

have repealed the infamous jurors'; t<st

to its ancient bed, so as to establish an
easy water communication between the
Caspian M-a and the region# bordering

This is a scheme which Russia has
cherished for a quarter of a century
"several explorations have been made of
the old bed of the I una, which enter#
the Caspian near Fort hrasnorodak.and
the decision# reached have been diverse
and unsatisfactory. As is well known,
at present the Uxus (or the Anion

the present stream at a point several
days' Caravan march below Khiva and
pursues a soothwestorly course to the
Caspian. This defiection of the great
river of Central Asia, was accomplished
bv the construction of an immense dam.
When this was done has never been
settled. It is 1-ertain that history furn
ishes no record of the enterprise. One
Russian savant has fixed the time as

preponderance of opinion is against

.1 WHITE LACE IN A ERICA.
[London spectator, June 28.J
Major Mrpa Pinto, the Portugese
traveller in Africa who recently turned
up at Durban, has been lecturing on his
travelsat Lisbon. In hisaddresa, which
is translated in the Standard, he testi
fies distinctly to the existence of a
white race in Central Africa, living in
territory "between the Cucbi and the
Cubango." He himself #|H>ke to men of
this race, whom he describes as "whiter
than Caucasians," who cull themselves
< asseqtters, and are not bad people,
though totally uncivilized. They have
tufts of hair on their heads, like short
wool. They have eyes like the l hinese
are powerful, and live a nomadic life.
It is of course possible that an albino
family should have multiplied, but it is
more probable that a small party of
Vandal# or Goths were forced south
ward, or tried to explore southward,
were compelled by circumstances to re
main and, being separated from all
around them by their color, have sur
vived as a distinct tribe. An almost
perfectly white tribe exists in the Atlas,
the descendants, it is supposed, of Ro
mans who (led to the mountain for pro
tection against the barbarians, ana as
far as is yet known, climate lias little iu
tluence on color. The Copts remain
white and the Tasmanians were ouite

a climate nearly identical with that of
Britain.

the sudden and tranieudous revolution ia
the condition of both races is considered
they have borne thrniielve* toward each

does not record so violent a political
change Suddenly the blacks of the south
were elevated ffoms condition of slavery
to the full enjoyment of citieen-sbip,
while their fermer master, impoverished

that more strife has not arisen between the

the whites of the south when he csntidert
all tncy suffered at the hands of the domi

The spectacle of moral grandeur in this

Mr. Wbitthorne presents a pictureofth#

to the verge of financial ruin. Private
property was disturbed and the old save

farm land was reduced from 19U) to HCO
to the amount of $771,700,906. The loss of
personal property of all descriptions
amounted to billion*. This was ths ooa

be wondered that the whole population
mast endure year* of privation But ia
tteaj ef considering this situation the
south has been reproached for denying the
colored people their legal and politic*!
rights; for depriving them ef tho just re
ward of their labor ; and for keeping their
lives and iibealies in constant jeopardy.
Mr. Whitthorne takes considerable pain*
to refute the second charge, as it is assign
ed as tho principal ground of the negr#
exodus. The ether two arc entitled to lit
tle consideration as they have long ago
been exposed as mere reckless partisan ex
aggeration.
As to the ether charge that the negroes
do not receive a tair return for their labor
Mr. Whitthorno shows that the produc
tion in the south since the war has increas
ed. and that a corresponding proportion
ot this increased production was for the
benefit of the laborers Prom 1869 to 1878
the increase of live stock in the south, in
cluding swine, was more than three mil
lion heads In the eight years that pre
c-ded the war 27,142 286 bales of cotton
were produced, while in the lat eight
years ihe production was 31.226,631 bales
In 1871, 7,657,679 acres were planted in
cotton against 12.001)000 acres in 1878
Mr. Wbitthorne estimates that the pro*
duct* "f southern labor to the amount of
$20,000,000 are exchanged far the mer
< handise and manufactures af New Eng
land, New York. New Jersey and Penn
sylvania In regard to wages the follow,
ing dnta are presented In tho northers
and western states the farm laborer re
(.aires seven dollars per head of tho popu
iation ; in the southern states he receives
more than ten dollars per head la the
southern slates in a population of little
mora than nine millions $07,907,174 is
paid to laborers. In the northern and
western slates in a population of more than
fifteen millieni only $114,892,804 is paid.
This much is certain that production in
the seutbern states has considerably in
creased since the war, andjhat this means
an increaso in genoral prosperity and the
improvement of the condition of the la
borers. "Whatovor tho negroes may have
suffered in the first years of their freedom
their present condition is not such as to
justify their exodus. Necessity does not
drive them forth so long as they are wil
ling to work for fair wages. If a majority
of tho negroes remain poor in spite of the
increase of production and ware! that is
not the fault of their employers. As to
the political oppression that is practised
on tbem it is the old story of southern
"outrage" that has lost its influence with
the public. In political matters the color
ed people of tho south understand that
they do best in following tho advico of
their white neighbors. In Kansoa their
political condition would not be improv
ed, but under the most favorable circum
stances they must toil and savo in order to
live. Unscrupulous politicians under pre
tense of humanity have united with the
Kansas speculators in railroad lands in se
ducing the negroes to this exodus. Rut
the negroes are waking up from their de
lusion and there are significant signs that
tho emigration fever which at ono time
threatened to depopulate portions of the
south is rapidly declining.— Patriot.

PA If GOB A SPRINGS, COLORADO.
beautifully loestsd in tho finest part of
the valley sf the San Juan river, below it*
rugged mountain courts, and just above
its entering an tiineee>slbln canon of ore
face .us sand-tsns, is the great natural cis
rinsily known by the Indian* a* Pah-Goes,
or Hulling Water. The main spring i*
described hy Lieutenant Mct'suley as the
largest as well a* the hottest belling spring
In the United States. Indian trail* from
all direction* converge ujHin the spring*,
all deeply wem, the place having been
from time immemorial one of great retort.
Here, attracted by the healing properties
of the water, different fatuities, hand", and
tribe*, have been acrtlrtoßioJ to peaceful
ly alterable, conceiving the springs to be
| a special creation of the great spirit for the
I cure of ths lick of oil tribs*, however af
; dieted.
In tlit tisighborhcod of the springs the
river i* a beautiful trout dream, with a
fall et about fifty tee; to the mile The
main continental divide o to the north and
eat, approximating the arc ot a circle,
with Pah-Go.* *• its centre. A *pur of
llie Snowy Kange, or Great Divide, sepa
rati rig the waten of the Son Juan and Pi
edra tribularlet, paste* to the Southwest,
terminating in Pah-Gota peak, 12.C70 feet
higb--a clearly defined pyramid from the
seuth, and the most prominent point in the
landscape. The spring* lie on the short
ett line of communication from the ea*t to
the lower Son Jusn country. The wagon
road from Tierra Amarilla, North Mexico,
to the Animas region, paste* by them, and
though not the shortest routs, it .1 the one
moit l.aveled, tines it alsne abound* in
wood, water, and grass It I* mainly
along the route ef the old Spasiih trail,
the great highway in olden times, leading
from New Mexico to the Anima*.
The principal springs he upon the entl
side of the river in a contracted valley er
park, a hortdistatice above where the An
"lis* road crosses the river. They are H*
in number, and have a temperature abeve
blood heat. They lie in an angle made hy
a sharp bernl in the river and upon iu left
bank. On the opposite tide, half a mile or
mors to the south, is a group of cold
springs near the river. Le* than a half's
mile down the river a small creek flows in
!ri'm the east, the <>jo Frio, so called from
the number of cold springs along its banks.
Jut below its mouth sharp mesas and
mattes of vertical cretaceou* rock* with
wooded turn 111 it* clote in upon the river,
forming a canon not yet explored The
river it well slocked with trout and other
fish.
The geological age of the springs is very
great. Dr. Newberry is of tho opinion
that the main spring lies in the crater of an
ancient volcano. Originally the mass of
rising water had only a surface outlet,
pouring forth over the sides of the orifice
The mineral matter which the hot water
held in solution was deposited over the
surface in thin sheets forming a great
mound mainly of calcium carbonate ard
sodium sulphate, of greatest thickness
1 near the spring About the main spring
the mats of itaiagmilic rock is honeycomb
ed and cavernous, especially on the north
toward the river. The entire group of hot
•prints occupies ar. are* of about 21 acres,
on lb* central and higher portion of the
great mound.
The opening of the main spring is an ir- :
regular p-ar shaped depression about 70
feet long by 46 feel w.de. the depth being
immeasurable, owing to tha sulagmilic ob
structions beneath the surface Columns
of bubbles rise constantly everywhere over
the surface, giving the spring the appear
ance ot a huge glass of freshly decanted
champagne. The great basin is divided
by a pa ritlion capped with a cone of sul
phur, from which spurts and puff* a liny
jet of water. Near the centre the water
boils furiously. The ebullition, however, j
, s wholly gaseous, the water having a tern !
peralure balow the boiling point at the al
, titudo ot the spring. The waters rise
highly charged with hydrogen monosul
uhtd* ar, j carbon dioxide, and contain in
solution calcium, sodium and magnesium
carbonates, sodium and potassium sul
phate*, and tedium chloride, lbs largest
mineral constituent being sodium sul
pbat*. Around the eastern edge of the,
water are a number ot cavities which the
Indians use as bathing bouse*. At the
southern end is a vapor jet in a cavity, in
which the natives extemporixe a itcati*
bath by means of a blanket. A series of
eareful observations in December gave a
temperature ranging between 140' and
141* Fab. The outflow is through the
honeycombed rock hearatb the surface,
the line of the flow being marked by open
ing*. many of them emitting vapar. The
beds of all outlets ofthe various spring*
and openings are coated with mineral mat
ter, largely sulphur from decomposing
hydrogen sulphide.
A eantor.rocnt for the protection of
Southwestern Colorado has been establish
ed at the springs, and as an offset tu cer
tain claims to the land about the springs,
the l'ressdent reserved, in May, 1877, a
square mile, including the springs, as a
lawn site. At a grand council bald by the
Uto Com mission with the Tie bands last
fall, the Indians begged that tbe govern
ment should retain possession of tbe place,
so that all per'ans, whether whiles or In*
dians, might coma there and be healed
Lieutenant McCauley expresses the belief
that at no distant day these springs are
destined to become a place of great resort,
and la play no mean part in the sanitary
economy of Colorado.

SWIFT, TERRIBLE AND DESERV
ED.
Over Two Thousand CitUcn* Pttniab
with Dcnth the Perpetrator of n
Urutnl Outrage on it Lady.
Coal Valley, W. V*., July A few
days ago Clark Lao, n negro man, who'
has figured to some extent in certain cir
cles of colored society in Richmond, com
mitted a most atrocious assault upon Mrs
Settle, wife of thu County Treasurer of]
119 ' •• . W Va. Mrs. Settle had (hi
courage to resist him, and before Lac
could overcome her he had htoken ona ofl
her legs and Iter cellar boas and pulled
out her tonsils. The screams of Ilia lady
drew her children to the room, and their
outcries frightened oil tha vllhan. The
outrage, of course, occasioned graat excite
ment, and de/.eti* of men, mounted ami
armed, set out ia pursuit af tha fugitive.
Lea. knowing the peculiarity of tie West
Virginians in this respect, fled for dear
life. Ry almost superhuman exertions
and after considerable suffering ha got as
far a> l'arkarsburg.
There n Saturday last he was captured
and tha Fayette authorities notified just in
time to save the life of another nagre, be
lieved to be Lee, who was in the hands ofl
a meb down in the country, and who
wonid otherwise hare been hanged Mon
day. In fact a great crowd was already in
attendance awaiting the event. Lee war
put under the custody of an officer and
sent frem Parkersburg to Huntington by
an Ohio River steamer- ills movements
were wall known, and upon hi* arrival at
Huntington he was met by about two
hundred men. These formed an escort
for him on his homeward trip. H was
put upon the Chesapeake and Ohio train
at Huntington with the ostensible purpose
of being conveyed to Fayette, but it was
well understood that tie judge or jury
weuld be required in his case It it prob
able that if he made no admis-ions he
might have been taken to Mr*. Bottle for'
identification ; but he got frightened out
of bis senses and confessed the assault, and
said that he delisted when the scream* ef
Mi*. Settle's children became *0 loud.
This was enough. It was determined that
he should not live another day.
At C- al Valley, which is a coal mining
centre, Lee was escorted! from the train
and met by a thousand or more miners,
who teemed to know ths design of the es
corting party, and who were ready to co
operate in avenging their outraged coun
trywoman. Lee was taken by the mob,
if *0 orderly and methodical a party o!
West Virginia gentlemen can properly b<-
so designated, Some distance from the tu
lion and hanged. It ia said on one hand
that his prayers for mercy were piteou*
indeed, ar.d that he besought the lynch
ers to do anything they might with biia,
so tbey left bin* life. On the other hand,
it is represented that after commending
bis soul to the Almighty he bare hitmelfj
with the utmost inJifference. The exactj
truth will probably never be known to]
the great public, for the people here, while
among thenielvc- arc free in their talk
ar.d justification of the affair, are some-]
what reticent in the pres a- e of uew spa-.
per men, but the long and short of the
matter is, the offence wai a most barbar
ous one, the punishtner' was swift, tcrri-j
ble and deserved, and while there an
tome who lament the necessity fer the
people taking the law into their < wnj
hands, all agree that if ever mob violence
was pardonable at all it was <* in this in
stance. Lee's father and mother are laid
to reside in Richmond, near the Jiff Ia
vis mansioa.
