TIME INDIAN TROXIBLES.
The latest reports from the We,st show that
there is by no means that quiescence among
the hostile Indians that some of the recent - at--
counts have indicated. In Western „Kansas
a number of fresh murders, have been coin:
mitted by the Sioux, Cheyennes and Arrapa
hoes, and the demand is thus renewed for
decisive measures for the permanent protec
tion of the scattered settlers who' are so una
ble to defend themselves fromthesemurdering
and marauding bands of Savage's.
The Indian question has been well-nigh
talked and written to death, but very
little has been done ,ha a , practical
way to put a stop "to to these frequent
outrages. There is a very strong and well
founded public sentiment in favot of entrust
ing the whole management of the . Indians to
the War Department, thus breaking up the
Indian Bureau, which, through the iniquities
of its agents, is chiefly responsible for the
enmity which the various , tribes foster so 'bit
terly against the whites. This reform will
undoubtedly be effected, and we hope that it
will be done soon. The Indians have been
shamefully robbed, swindled and persecuted
by these Indian agents, and the peaceful and
innocent emigrant and settler pay the pen
alty of the wrongs thus inflicted.
But it is in vain to pause now to philosophize
or moralize over the causes of these Indian
lirttragea. --- ThelnethWraf - dea'lliFg — fFith them
is the practical question. Diplomacy, trea
ties, appropriations, councils have all been
tested to_the uttermost and have all failed.
The Indian holds obstinately to two ideas.
He believes that he is the natural lo,rd and
master of the soil, and that the white man is
an invader and so a natural enemy. And he
believes, with good cause, Mit ' the whites
cheat and rob him in all their dealings with
him. Andso the war-path is kept open and
constant reports reach us of retaliatory mur
ders and outrages.
This state Gf hostility is kept alive by the
prevailing sentiment of the far Western
people, who look upon extermination as the
only solution of the Indian question, and who
are carrying that idea into practical effect, as
fast as opportunity offers. Said a very intel
ligent and experienced Indian scout to us,
very recently, "We go out to kill everything
Indian we meet;" and it was said in no spirit
of braggadocia, but as the statement of an
admitted fact. A retaliatory warfare is thus
constantly kept up. This practice of Indian
hunting on the part of scouts and trappers
has grown out of the instincts of Ixavenge
and of self-defence, but it needs to be checked,
and it would be checked were the manage
ment of Indian affairs once vested In the War
Department.
But what is chiefly needed for the imme
diate emergency is the effective punishment
of offending tribes. Our past warfare with
them has been ridiculously ineffective. When
we strike we must strike hard, and dispel
once for all the common notion among the
J.ndianii that the losses we sustained during
the rebellion have reduced us to a "nation of
squaws." This idea is widely held among
them, and it will need hard blows to boat it
out of them.
The hostile tribes need first to be thoroughly
thrashed, and then forced into a gradual habit
of sell-support. And this last end is to be
gained only by a gradual reduction of the ap
propriations. Let our Government fix a day,
say thirty years from the present time, when
all Indian appropriations shall cease. Mean
time, let the appropriations be honestly paid,
reducing the amount one-thirtieth every year,
and the rising generation of Indians will be
taught by that best of all schoolmasters, ex
perience, that they must learn to work, or
take the grim alternative that "If any man
will not work, neither shall he
eat." We believe that upon some such prin
ciples as these, and upon no opposite •ones,
can the Indian question be settled. The In
dian must be treated honestly and fairly, in
every bargain that the Government makes
with him; but he must be severely punished
whenever he assumes a hostile attitude, and
be must be taught by degrees to adopt the
usages of civilization, and to earn his bread
by the sweat of his brow. Until these things
are done he will be a stumbling block in the
way of advancing civilization, and a terror
and a scourge to the pioneers and settlers
upon our western frontier;
MAD WE A BOURBON AMONG US?
Most persons will remember the excitement
created some years ago by the appearance, in
.Putnarre.B Magazine, of a series of articles
designed to prove that Rev. Eleazer Wil
liams, a clergyman of the Protestant Epis
copal Church' in this country, was really
Louis EVIL, son of Marie Antoinette, and
the Daupnin of France. The mass of testi
mony adduced was very great, and at the
time it was regarded by many as conclusive;
but in recent years very grave doubts have
been thrown upon it, and the general opinion
at present is, that Mr. Williams had no claim
to the title. Now that the whole matter has
• -p_nearly_forgotten, we are surprised-by-a
revival of the claim, and the production of
additional evidence by a prominent clergy
man in New York, Dr. Francis Vinton,
- • ...a :1 .•

-ing_whoit.tns; 5e...c0:04,41e- teitimony_of_

of Wirtemburg, and to the

Tnis nobleintin Waif' preierif in lir. Viatoll'EV
church in Brooklyn, in ,gebruary,. 1853; Mr.
Williams officiated, and the Duke was very
much surprised at his , remarkable likeness to
the Bourbon familY.7,Xpon tleatiling the, trtt
more about Mr. Wfillamsle , sald, "He: is - no
doubt a Bourbon." . Be also
~ stated that he
had heard it reported in legitimist circles in
France that the Dauphin had been conveyed'
'to America: It was his wish that his state
ments should not be made public until after
his death,and Dr.Vinton now presents a mem
orandum of them, certified to by gentleman
who heard them. The third point is the most
important. It is of the "strawberry mark on
your left arm" nature. Mrs. Commodore
Read, of New Orleans, wrote.to. Dr. Vinton
that she had seen a woman in Louisiana whq
had been in the family of the',Duatiesse d'An
goniBme, the sister of the Dauphin. This
woman stated that she, bad heard ',the Duch
ease sat that the surgeon who inoculated her
brother had made a crescent-shaped scar upon
his back 'With 'a lancet. Dr. Vinton: asked
Mr. Williamst.permission to examine his back,
and he found the scar, in the precise position
designite&- '
' This, with all the other existing testimony,
seems to establish a pretty strong case, and
w4l be likely to convince very many persons
of the truth of Mr. ;.Williams' identity.., The
conflicting testimonY is historical. The Dau
phin Weald to:have died , irk the ',Temple, In
the arms of one of = his keepers. His body
was identified and Certified to by four 'mem
bers of the committee of public safety in
Paris, and by,more than twenty officials of
the Temple.. A. post mortern, examination
was also made by four distinguished physi
cians who professed to recognize him. Of
course it is possible that some of these par
ties may have been deceived, and that others
were bribed to give false testimony. It is
well known,that the Legitimists, headed by
the Count:. of Provence, declared in
favor of the Dauphin's right to the
throne, and made several attempts
to rescue him, so that the revolutionists may
have determined upon the safe policy of re
moving him from the country and circulating
a report of his death. The exact truth will
probably never be known.
The whole matter is more curious thaii im
portant, any rate. Much of its interest is
derived from the tragic history of the poor
royal boy, from the wild romance of his
asserted life in this country,and from the mysf
tery in'which the subject is involfed. The
truth or falsehood of the story can make ho
difference now to the subject of it, for he has
gone to the eternal world. Indeed, Mr. Wil- '
hams, while alive, manifested great indiffer
ence about the matter. He had devoted him-
Self to the sublime career of a preacher and a
missionary, and he was better content with the
royalty of a priesthood devoted to the welfare
of his humblest fellow-creatures, than he would
have been with the heavy responsibilities and
endless tribulations of a ruler of France. He
had the gentle nature of his reputed father,
and it found fuller expression and satisfaction
among the simple Indians, to whom he car
ried the beneficent tidings of the gospel of
peace, than it could have done upona throne.
Now, that he is beyond the influence of tem
poral honors, discussion of the subject can do
nothing mere than tend to the establishment
of an interdating historical fact, and for this
purpose Dr. Vinton's paper is important. If
it reawakens public interest in the matter,
and evokes other evidence, we may yet find
that the old question, Have we a Bourbon
among us? was susceptible of an affirmative
answer.
BRAIN AND STOMA.On.
There is something very ludicrous in the
various methods by which the Democratic
orators at the South are laboring to catch the
negro vote. After holding him in abject
bondage for two centuries; after plunging the
country into a bloody war to perpetuate sla
very; alter opposing every measure that had
for its object the elevation of the negro to
whrd manhood and the opportunity of prov
ing his capabilities for civilization—these ex
slavehOlders are now haranguing political
meetings all over the South, and bidding
frantically for this despised negro vote. It
is no longer possible to keep the negro in
his quarters,while politics are being discussed
upon the stump, and so the orator is com
pelled to steer his difficult and delicate course
between the prejudice of the whites against
the negroes and the instincts of the negroes
against the class who held them in slavery.
It is a very "hard row to hoe," but clever
Southern politicians are not stopped by ordi
nary difficulties, and so we see them charg
ing at this wide ditch, and floundering
through, utterly unmindful of consequences.
One of the latest specimens of this feat Of
arguing for a."white man's government" and
for negro rights, in the same breath, is pre
sented in Howell Cobb's speech, which
we published:on Friday last. Howell boldly
informed his hearers that the' men who kept
the negro in slavery were his best friends,
and the men who delivered him from it his
worst enemies; and then he gives them a pat
ent for catching the negro vote. Here it
"I never talk politics with my negroes, and
yet they voted with me, and will do it again.
The only argument that I offered them was
four pounds of bacon, one peck of meal, a
quart of potatoes, a good doctor when sick,
and one-fourth of my crop. That's the very
best argument that you can offer them. Try
it. You will find that it will convince all
sensible negroes." There is quite a show of'
onesty a • out . Cobb's recipe for making
"my negroes" vote his way. The bacon,
meal, potatoes and medicine were originally
the sole ingredients in it, and the treatment
was thus made very simple. The improved
remedy, however, includes the trifling ad
dition of "one-fourth, of the crop."
This, Mr. Howell Cobb would have it un
derstood,*as an invention of his for the
; enefit - of - "my - negroes," and entitles him to
peculiar favor at their hands, whereas= the
negro well knows that he is indebted wholly
to the Republican party for_anyAhare-th) ;
as the profits of his labor on Mr. Cobb's
lantation.
But Mr. Cobb was not quite as honest as
he looke. He forgot to give his hearers his

words, to drive the obstinate 'believers in the
'truths of Republicanism from, his employ
ment. It iti‘simply 'a' Twitters of bacon with
Howell Cobb, but he ought to , have stated it
more fully, to, his ignorant hearers. He would
have dono so; if heOpilidonli,itairekept,"my
negroes" out of heirlitg; will "go to
meeting;" and so he must needs leave a few,
important ideas to the comprehension of his
audiences without expressing them in 'se
many words. The Cobb doctrine is :
" Deniocracy and 'Bacon; Republicanism
and Starvation." , The . - ,doctrine is a
strong one all the world over, If it can only
be pnt'in force.' 'Unfortunately for : its appli
cation to the Democratic vote at the South,
Mr. Cobb needs the negro labor:more than
the negro' needs Mr, "CObb's•badon, arid it will
be found that-the negro hag a portion of his
brains located elsewhere than in his stomach,
'haddeus Stevens placed perhaps a just es
timate upon the relative importance of his
triuinphs,when 'deelaied that his successful
eftbrkin;behalf of the estalilishment of a com
mon school system , in. Pennsylvania, was the
greatest accomplishment of, Ids political ca
rter.' It was'indeed the crowning glory of a
life that hit bitterest enemies confess to have
been xionsistent in its intense struggle for
universal liberty- 7 a life spent in the very
forefront of progress: The greatest men
this'world has produced- have been radicals,
and Mr. Steyens, like , them, was, ever ahead,
of his time. Ii 1834 he introduced to the
Legislature of .tins State the bill providing for
taxation of the people for,the Support of pub
lic schools. Amid a iMweribl; wealthy,
frantic opposition, he carried the- measure.
'lle next Legislature contained' <a majority
elected to repeal the law, and just as, the fatal
deed was about to be done, Mr Stevens arose,
and in the ablest speech' of his life, turned the
tide in favor of free education. He was un
popular then, because he was the apostle of
future, good, seeing in general education- a
mighty agent for liberty, and for the eleva
tion of his race, and a weapon against that
hateful system of negro slavery, which found
its sturdiest support among the ignorant.
us~ea he writhe loader of th - e - Varignard in
1885, against the battalions of bigotry, so he was
wiser than his generation in these later years.
His old antagonists hardly dare questlon the
superlative sagacity of his action in behalf of
the school bill; and there are those in the
ranks of the opposition to day, who will live
to look back upon the Majestic presence of
"the old man eloquent" in Congresg, and ac
knowledge that his was a brave, unflinching,
earnest struggle for the right; for a higher
and purer civilization; for a jester estimate
Of manhood, its privileges and duties; and for
that perfect liberty which gives to all men
equality before the law, and a voice in their
own government. Thaddeus Stevens' unsel
fishness proves the sincerity of his motives.
His labors were literally without recompense,
excepting that consciousness of duty well
done, which belongs only to such men as he
was. The time has not yet come to measure
the stature ()fhb moral and intellectual great
ness. It will come only when there is a final
triumph for the mighty principles for which
he contended.
A brute of a fellow was tried at the :Quar
ter Sessions for unmercifully beating a lame
and briilien-winded horse, which had fallen
in the street from exhaustion. The case was
clearly made out, but it was unfortunately
committed to one of those stupid juries who
so often bring the whole system ofjury trial
into disrepute, and a verdict of "not guilty"
was returned. The biped brute went free for
the time, but the officer who made the arrest
very properly appealed to the Court for in
structions m similar cases, whOreupon Judge
Brewster sent for the owner of the poor beast
and gave him, a lecture on the subject of
cruelty to animals which he will not immedi
ately forget, especially as it was accompanied
by the imposition of a bail of $5OO to keep
the peace, and a warning that the recogni
zance would be sued out upon a repetition of
the offence.
The excuse offered in this case was so ex
traordinary that the action of the jury has
something mysterious, not to say miraculous,
about it. The plea was made that the horse
was lame and broken-winded when his tor
menter bought him for thirty dollars. He
seems to have believed that this fact en
titled him to the privilege of beating the
wretched beast whenever he broke down un
der the heavy load of a coal cart, andthe jury
was evidently of the same opinion. What
the train of reasoning was that con
nected the animal's infirmities with
the right to beat and abuse him
in the brains of this sapient jury, we
cannot imagine. However that may be, the
cause of humanity is indebted to the officer
who called the attention of the Court to this
unjust verdict, and to Judge Brewster for his
prompt action and his stern reprimand of the
offender. It is to be hoped that the police
will not be deterred from their manifest duty
by these occasional failures to convict in
cases of cruelty to animals. All juries are
not as stupid as this one, and where the case
is as clear as it was in this instance, the
chances are that the law will take its proper
course against the offender.
Whose business is is to keep the sidewalks
free from obstruction by rubbish or building
material ? Thirteenth street, below Walnut,
has now been entirely impassable on the east
side for several days, the entire sidewalk
being blocked up with the bricks and mortar
from a demolished building. It is, of course,
somebody's business to prevent such an im
position as this, and we call attention to it,
in the vague hope that the particular authority
entrusted with keeping the streets open to
pedestrians may be stirred up to the exercise
of the pgwers necessary in the premises. It
is highly encouraging to see the numerous

A nice looking young lady came into

arrayed in her Sunday-go. to-meeting

her. Finally she spoke :

And the man of photographs - was

Litxc.Aersta, August 17.—During the whole of
Saturday, Mr. Stevens's remains lay in state in the
parlor of his. late residence, the sunestion to
place theta in the Court House having been
abandoned: The citizens of Lancaster and vicin
ity, to the number of several hundred, visited the
house during the day,a constant stream of visitors
thronging the street from the time the coffin was
opened in the morning until the doors were
closed late in the evening.
The appearance of the remains is natural, the
face being the same as in life ; the eyes are more
deeply sunken than when he was last at his home,
and the face thinner, but the firmly compressed
lips still give evidence of the indomitable firmness
which ever distinguished him—seeming even
more stern and proud in the rigidity of death.
His death seems to have, in a great measure,
quenched the bitterness of partisan feeling. The
unfaltering consistency of his life-long devotion
to the principles he held has inspired the respect
of all, and it is now fully manifested in the
universal expression of regard for his memory.
The colored people seem to be especially af
fected by the less of one who has been their most
earnest and faithful friend. On the evening of
the 14th they met at the A. M. E. Church, the
proceedings beMg as follows:
At a meeting of the colored citizens of Lancas
ter, held August 14th, }RCS,, in the A. M. E.
Church, after singing and prayer, the Rev. James
V. Pierce was called to the chair, and a com
mittee appointed to draw up a preamble and
resolutions expressive of the sense of the
colored people of the city and county of Lan
caster, relative to the death of Hon. Thaddehs
Stevens, our much honored and fast friend.
The committee retired and brought in the fol
lowing:
Whereas, It has pleased an All-wise God to
remove from earth our late Representative in
in Congress, and the fast and tried friend of our
race, who has always advocated the cause of the
oppressed and• down-trodden, and fought the
battles of right against wrong and oppression
with unflinching integrity and with iron will,
such us very few, if any others, possessed; and,
Whereas, It is becoming and proper that,
whilst humbly bowing to the will of the Ruler of
all things, who is infinite in wisdom, we should
testify our sense of gratitude to one who has
done so much for us as a people; by appropriate
tributes of respect to his memory, we and our
posterity ever cherishing the recollection of his
great worth.
Resolved, That, we deeply mourn the loss of
our much-beloved friend, as the centre of our fu
ture hopes of equal rights before the law, and a
tried friend of our race.

At several of the churches,.reterence was made
to the sad event by the ministry, all paying high
tributeß to the deceased. At Bt. John's Free
Church, Rev. Dr..fluddards, of. Philadelphia, in
cidentally mentioned the fact that since he had
last filled that pulpit, two of the most distin
guished of the nation and of the world had
passed away from our midst, one of whom was
_now-wsiting_to_be rarris to s_buft
place—one whose statesmanship, patriotism and
consistent devotion to principle had made his
public life parrof our national history.
At the primary elections of-the Republican
Party on Saturday, the unanimous vote of the
district was east for the name of Thaddeus
Stevens for the representation in the next Con
gress. This was done at the suggestion of, the
County Committee, as an expression of the
uncitminiehed confidence of the people hi their
distinguished and lamented Representative.
It may be interesting to mention the reason of
the burial of Mr. Stevens in Shreiner's,CettleterY•
He owned until recently lots in both thti princi
pal burial places of the city, but disposed of
them - and purchased the spot where he will now
be laid, for the reason that colored persons were
excluded from the two former, and he desired to
recognize the universal brotherhood of man, for
which he had so long and so bravely battled,
even in his choice of his final resting place.
The Mayor of the city, in accordance with the
resolutions adopted at the citizens' meeting, is
sued on Saturday a proclamation requesting the
closing of all business places in the city from I
o'clock P. M., until evening.
Many places throughout the city are draped in
mourning—the newspaper offices,the Post-Office,
the house of the Shiftier Fire Company, of which
the deceased has long been a member and officer,
and the flags are all at half-mast. The event
seems to have made a deeper impression noon
the community than any other for, many ye - sit.
Bo accustomed of late years to his repeated rally
ing against attacks which threatened his life,
his death at last fell upon the community with
a shock the effects of which are universal.

[Special De:watch to the Plat. Evening BrllothLl
The) first down train this morning brought an
immense number of people from Harrisburg and
vicinity, adding to t,he r
alre.ady vat crowd in Liao
city:;
The remains are now being visited by thousands,
and it is with difficulty that the passages can be
kept open so as to give all an opportunity to see
thon. From every direction the people of the
district are pouring in,, and the crowd is now
greater than we have seen for years.
AMong the arrivals we noticed Gov.. Geary,
Gen. Cameron, Col. J. W. Forney, several of the
State officers, and a nu m b e r '
of other well-known
.
faces. •
'l'here is a marked differsnce between the senti
ments displayed on this and Other 'similar occa
sions.' It Is a spontaneous outpouring of the
people. There is nothing of the usual excitement
and confusion on such days, the solemnity of the
occasion seeming to affect all.
Appearance 01 the Body.
The appearance of the corpse today is not so
natural, the discoloration having appeared in
several places on thc, face, but the expression is
unchanged. The conn is decorated with a
wreath and cross of evergreen and white roses
tu3d =es.
The crowd increases every moment:
The noon train came a half hour late with sev
eral extra cars all crowded to overflowing with
delegations from the several stations along the
routeJ •
We have noted no further distinguished arrl
vab3'as yet. -The special train from Philadelphia
hail just arrived, bringing the delegations' from
the League, and the Republican invinclbles, and
the Mayor, City Councils and numbers of citi
zens. The depot is constantly crowded. The
railroad officials have displayed the national
colors, draped in mourning, and a portrait of
the illustrious dead.
The Services at the House.
The services at the house commenced with an
invocation by Rev. A. H. Xremer, of the First
Reformed Church, as follows:
"Oh Thou Divine God, Father, Son and
Holy Ghost, Who art our refuge in time of
trouble, cast upon us the light of Thy
countenance and grant us Thy
help! Give us grace to impiove the afflictions
of Thy hand and turn our' hearts to keep Thy
-4ommandments!-May-weldt,be-fellowship - of - Thy --
Holy Church brings forth the fruit of a godly life,
and that having persevered in tho way of virtue
and piety to the emf, we may, with Prophets,
Apostles, Martyrs, Confessors and Saints of all
ages, come into full communication with one
another in Thine eternal and glorious kingdom
through the mediation of our Lord mid Saviour
Jesus Christ. Amen.
The Rev. Bishop Bigler, of the Moravian
Church, then read the ninetieth psalm.
He was followed by a prayer by the Rev. E. H•
Nevin, as follows:
Rev. Ale. Nevins's Prayer.
`") God, the only true and living God, before
whom angels bow and and archangels avert
their faces, we come before Thee at this time with
profound grief, humility and reverence. Thou
bast been pleased in Thy mysterious providence
to remove from this city and State and nation an
eminent citizen,,who has filled high places of
trust and honor, and we have been summoned
together to pay our last tribute of respect to his
mortal remains. While we mourn over his de_
parture, we would seek to be resigned to Thy so_
vereign will. We thank Thee for the many
distinguished and heroic virtues
with which he was endowed and
the many xioble works that he was 'successful
in achieving. We thank Thee that he sympa
thized with the poor, and the oppressed,
and the suffering, and that he was willing
to employ his extraordinary talents and
influence to alleviate and improve their
conditiop. We thank Thee for his devotion to
justice and righteousness,. and for the good that
has been accomplished for the land and the world
by his constant and unflinching advocacy of
these divine principles. We thank Thee for
his earnest and undying devotion to the cause Of
education; for all the virtues that adorned his
heart and the manly traits that distinguished his
life. May his example be imitated by us all, and
especially by the legislators of our State and
nation! Bless his afflicted relatives, and comfort
them in the midst of their sorrows; help us all to
be true to our highest and most sacred convictions
of duty while living, so that we may be enabled
to triumph with the consciousness of inward
peace on the bed of death. All these things we
ask in the name of the LordkJesus Christ, our
adorable Redeemer, Amen.
Rev. G. T. Thurloeh, of St. Paul's, M. E
church, read a prayer.
