THE IND I &IV OUTRAGES.
The sickening details of more Indian out
rages are coming to us in daily telegram%
and, as on all former occasions, the military
dispositions are found insufficient and Un
ready to meet the. emergency. Murders, out
rages and robberies of the most appalling na=
ture spread terror throughout one of our
Western States, and the wretched perpetra
tors of them go off again, feebly followed by
trifling squads of soldiers, to repeat their
murderous raids upon other settlements, or to
renew them upon the same ground in , another
season.
The people of the West understand the
necessity of a stern treatment of these
savages. Here and there may be found a
solitary writer or speaker, who wastes tine
and - breath in descanting upon the origin of
the Indian troubles, about as profitably as did
some of the old sehoolmen on the abstract
question of the origin of evil. But the pre
vailing sentiment is one that is based upon
just such horrible experiences as those now
reported from Western Kansas. It is a
sentiment that deals neither with use
less moralizings upon the past, or with
equally useless speculations about the future.
It simply holds that these hostile Indian tribes
are now dangerous to the lives and property of
all white settlers and sojourners; that they are
treacherous and cruel beyond description;
and that every instinct of self-preservation de
mands such a chastisement of them as will
put it out of their power to repeat the scenes
of blood and outrage which they have en
acted again and again along-the whole-fron
tier line of the West. --
The Government is doing the Indians no
kindness in its false lenience toward them.
Every recurrence of these annual outrages is
deepening the hatred of the Western people
toward them, and increasing the number and
bitterness of those who feel that they must
take their protection into their own hands,
and who seek, with an indiscriminate ven
geance, for the lives of all Indians, innocent
or guilty, wherever they are found. It is
perfectly well known to what tribes the halide
that are now over-running Kansas belong,
and those tribes should be made to feel the full
weight of the Government, and that at once.
The military force distributed throughout
the Indian country is quite a Considerable one
and is under the command of some the most
experienced officers of the army. A partial
concentration of these forces is certainly
practicable, and a blow may be struck among
the Cheyennes, the Arapahoes and the Siciux
that will be felt to their most distant lodges,
and that will teach them that there is to be
no more trifling with their treacherous cru
elty. We have no patience, under such emer
gencies, with disquisitions upon Indian
wrongs, or future policies for the Indian De
partment. There is an immediate, urgent
need.-for hard blows, and when it has been
made safe for men and women to settle down
and live peacefully in Kansas, or Nebraska,
or Minnesota, it will be time enough to renew
discussions which become puerile and imper
tinent in the presence of the fearful facts of
an actual Indian invasion.
DEMOCRACY AND THE NEGRO.
The New York World of yesterday de
votes a few lines to the consideration of the
merits of a certain negro who has announced
his desire to represent Savannah in Congress,
and it concludes with this bit of advice to
Democratic voters: "If you want this black
amour and others like him, to make your
laws, vote for Grant. He is running on that
line you know."
This is a fair specimen of the ridiculous
inconsistency of the Democrats in their, con
duct of the campaign. The writer of the
above paragraph knows that the Southern
members of his party are making the most
strenuous eflOrts, by threats and cajolery, to
induce the enfranchised negroes to enrol
themselves in the Democratic ranks, and they
even condescend to fellowship with the
blacks, to effect their purpose. The late
Democratic Convention, in Charleston, con
tained negroes. Wade Hampton says 1 17
are his friends, and he admits their political
equality, jlowel! . 1 2obb, 13. H. Hill, and
other lights of the late Confederacy and of the
present Democratic party, have both
made similar declarations during the
campaign, and, they prove their
sincerity by catiVassing the country In the
-stotelpiitiy Of pool negto orators.
the Southern papers are filled With lettets
Written in the interest of the Democratic party
by negro clergymen who have been flattered
into sympathy with their late masters; Demo
cratic clubs in the t contain negro mem
bers, and barbecues are bivee by the whites
to the blacks. Negro Orators are paid by the
party to stump their diStriets and delude their
fellows into casting their votes for Seymour
and Blair, and the Southern papers urge the
engagement of more such men for the work.
The Tennessee Democratic Convention has
issued an "official welcome" to the freedmen,
saying, "Common justice and common grati
tude demand that we should not disturb them
- - - 531 any rights they now possess." Democratic
colored clubs are organized in every Southern
state. In "Yazoo, Mississippi, last week, a
Democratic meeting passed a resolution de
claring that the Democracy intend to confer
"impartial suffrage on all men, irres
pective of color." To crown all, a

negro 'Was a member of the Demo
cratic Convention that met in Tam
-rimy-Hair Efe - sat - with - The - Saints, -- voted
with them, and helped them to construct the
platform to which ,the very•men to, whose
bigoted prejudices the World appeals, give
their allegiance.
The New York World, itr common with
kiwirctl sheets, is fully aware of these facts,
yet it carefully withholds them from its
readers, and shouts that senseless old war cry
of the Democracy, "nigger! nigger!" In their
fierce struggle for office, this party has deter
mined to neglect no means to accomplish its
end. In the South it needs the negro, and it
buy him with false promises. In the North
it requires the suffrage of the ignorant,brutal,
negro-hating white, and it descends to pander
to his meanest instincts. It is all things to all
men. It works a lie in professing to have prin
ciples, and in preaching three or four different
doctrines in different sections of the country.
The World makes up its dish of mild false
hood and genteel misrepresentation to suit its
Northern readers. The Memphis Appeal,
laboring for the seine end, contains para
graphs concerning the negroesovhich, in the
old slavery times, would have cost the editor
his life.
We do not blame them for giving negroes
political equality with their white members.
Many of the blacks, from their intelligence
and patriotism, are more than worthy of it.
We find fault with the mean and contemptible
conduct of the party organs in attempting to
encourage the prejudices of the lower classes
against the negro, while in the South they
are professing the most affectionate solici
tude for his welfare. It would be unreason
able to expect truth and decency from that
organization. Experience has proved the
folly of such hope. But the impudent in
consistency of its present attitude surpasses
any of its former achievements in that line.
IR ON U HEN V TO THADDEUS S ',EVENS.
Thaddeus Stevens put a just estimate on
his public services when he said recently: "I
think and feeL I hope without vanity, that
the crowning utility of my life was the
adoption of the common school system of
Pennsylvania." He undervalued his career
as a statesman, but he had lived long-enough
to see the practical benefits which he con
ferred upon Pennsylvania, more than thirty
years ago, when he became the virtual
founder of her system of free education.
Upon the foundation which was then laid by
the ssgacily, patriotism and broad-minded re
gard for the common people displayed by
Thaddeus Stevens, a magnificent structure has
arisen upon which it was most natural
that his closing eyes should look with pecu
liar satisfaction. Nearly 800,000 children in
Pennsylvania, in nearly 14000 schools, are
to-day enjoying the benefits of his noble ef
forts in their behalf. He lived to see his ex
periment tested by the experience of a whole
generation, and he wisely felt that, far above
any political fame, so proverbially ephemeral
in the rush and whirl of American progress,
the system of a free education which he had
founded in middle life, and which had borne
such glorious fruit in his old age, was the
"crowning utility of his life."
Thaddeus Stevens is buried in an open lot
in a neglected cetnetery in a corner of Lan
caster. He chose his own resting-place in
accordance with the free spirit which was the
motive power of his whole public - life, and it
remains for a grateful people to mark his
grave with a fitting monument. And what
so fitting as a monument erected by the free
,Schools of Pennsylvania f An average of
less than a dollar from each school, or little
more than a cent from each scholar, would
produce a fund of ten thousand dollars,which
would be amply 'sufficient for the pur
pose. There are, of course, some
of the remote schools, which are
small and poor, but there is no school where
it should not be felt that there is a great
unpaid debt of gratitude due to Thaddeus
Stevens for the blessing of a free education;
and there ought not to be a teacher or school
director in Pennsylvania who would not re
cognize the privilege of contributing a mite
toward so worthy an object.
We present this proposition to the common
schools of Pennsylvania. It is one that rises
far above all political differences and consi
deralions, and which may be carried into
effect without compromising the
opinions or position of any citizen
who may choose to condemn the public ca
mel of Thaddeus Stevens upon other ques
tions. "The crowniug utility of his life"
stands .completely apart from all his other
acts. We hold him to have been very great
in many other ways, but he judged right in
assigning to his labors in behalf of the cause
of universal and free education the place of
highest honor. If the schools of Philadel
phia will start the project of a Free School
Monument to Thaddeus Stevens, it will be •
quickly carried out, and every one of the two
thousand school districts of Pennsylvania
will see to it that it is not omitted from the
roll of honor, upon which will be inscribed
the names of those who hofrOt
helloing; the man who give iteln the inesti
mable blessing of a free and liberal edu
cation. Who will begin this worthy
work ?
LIPPIA CO TI'S FOR SEPTEMBER.
The most important article which we find
recommended to our editorial vision by the
honest, open-faced type of this fresh number,
is Charles Astor Bristed's statement of the
dispute at present shaking the foundations of
our educatiocal„ • system, between the old
school and the new. It is the ancient quarrel
between the ideal and the practical training.
The old school, observes the writer, aspires
to discipline the mind; the new, to store it:
the former proposes to furnish tools, the latter
material. After stating very cleayly the
grounds of difference, and the demands made
upon education by a practical age; the
writer promises t clearer classification of
the more prominent - studies between
the hostile theories of instruction;
we look forward with interest to his nest
paper.—"A Glance at Two of our Presi
dents," by Henry 'Flanders, presents graphic
sketches of Adams..and - Jefferson. Mr
Flanders has in him the making of a pictur
esque and philosophical historian.—The pure
and noble story of Mrs. Harding Davis,
' Dallas Galbraith,” in continued.—Miss Kate"'
Field has a lively article, spicy with the satire
iiore - adilysig — geite — d - 'fir' - the theme, entitled
"A Praßapbaelite at Saratoga."—A. very
-- grat - efutelnrynf - Paris - life; - "Otr Essidertnus
lea Galata," Is by A. Augustus Adee.—There
are plenty of old wives' tales and local pro
verbs pleasantly woven together in Mr. Win.
B. Drake's description of Nantucket.—"ii
Vigil" is a short anonymous fictitious sketch.
"My two" is a good ballad told in regular
blank verse.—Mr. Emery, in "An American
in Warwickshire," recites the epigram . about.
Malone, Sbakspeare's most objectionable
editor, who
"—Smeared his tombstone as bo marred his plass."
but misses the ,point in 'imagining that the
critic, after taking a cast from the Stratford
bust, merely left it in a stained and foul con
dition. The fact is that the monument, like
the O'Coombe and Lucy tombs in the same
church, had been originally colored in imita
tion of life; and that Malone,in his desperately
classical taste, had the image whitewashed,
and fended he improved it: the squib refers
to this act of ill-timed restoration, and not to
the indecency supposed.—Mrs. Henshaw has
some gossip about the kitchen.—Mrs.
contribntes_a _tale entitled ': Who-shall
separate us?"-Hugh Davids is the author of
a paper on Expression in Sculptare, with
many of whose opinions, with much of
whose - orthography, and notably with
whose hardy onslaught upon Michael Angelo,
we profoundly disagree.---Bayard Taylor's
poem on Sorrento, rather above the average
of magazine' poetry, ••has been already
published An this paper.—The Gossip
commences with some hints to-would-be
contributor's, in which ari old - matter 'of ad
vice is made quite fresh by modern instances
and timely examples. The editor surprises;
us, however, in the low standard he assigns
to the best American authorship, in matters
technically belonging to the profession.
Few authors even pretend to be perfect in
punctuation (he asserts); the arrangement of
compound words is one' of theft'
stumbling-blocks, and had better
be left to the proof-reader, while
the class of exact writers, who wish their
MSS. literally followed by the printer, are
pronounced to be almost invariably wrong
in all the minor points that go to add beauty
and clearness to the diction, such as the
proper placing of paragraphs and sentences,
compounding of words, and the correct
punctuating, capitalizing and italicizing of
their matter. We had supposed American
authorship to be in rather a higher condition
than this. The antiquarian anecdotes col
lotted for this department are agreeable and
new, as they always are. The BOok Reviews
are scholarly.

WASHINGTON, Aug, 19.-9 letter Just received
from the Chairman of the Committee of five ap
pointed by the Mississippi Constitutional Con
vention says: "There Is eviaently a strong
disposition on the part of the Democratic
party South to make an issue on the question
of the right of Mississippi and other excluded
}Rates to vote in the approaching election. If
the least encouragement is given by the Presl
dcn t •in that_ direction they will yin.
doubtedly hold an election, and I fear the
bill passed by Congress is not sufficiently explicit
in all its features. He says the Republicans
are anxiously expecting the reassembling of
Congress in September, as• their very existence
as a party and as individuals depends upon
some prompt and decisive ; measures for, their
relief.
The proceedings of the Democratic Executive
Committee of that Btate,at a recent meeting held
in the Senate Chamber at Jackson, are enclosed.
A resolution to proceed at once to nominate
candidates for Electors was rejected and the fol
lowing was adopted ittits_place;
Resolved, That this Committee deem it Inexpe
dient at this time to nominate an electoral ticket
for the State, but will defer a further considera
tion of that subject to an adjourned meeting of
this body, to be held in this Chamber on Tues
day, 22d day of September next.
It was also,
Resolced, That in the opinion of this Com
mittee the act of Congress above referred to ex
cluding the State of Mississippi from her right
to vote in the Presidental election, 1s in-con
travention of the constitution and the rights of
the States thereunder.
Other resolntiona adopted declare the ex
pulsion of Governor Humphreys from the Execu
tive iiklansion by military forces under General
Greet to be without authority of law,
and appoint a committee to corre
spond with General Grant and the Presigent
on the subject. That tepresentative men of
Southern Democratic sentiments be requested to
represent the South on the Northern question in
the present canvas, and that a Committee of Cor
respondence be appointed.to bring this subject
to the attention of the Democratic Committee's
and leading members of the party North.
A committee was also appointed to prepare an
address to the Democracy of the Northern States.
From information which has reached here from
Virginia and Texas it is believed that the Demo
crats of these States are pursuing the same policy.
with those in lississippl, of waiting until after
the time of thelSeatember session of Congress be
fore putting their electoral tickets in the field. The
full development of the • plan contemplated in
South Carolina and other States where Democrats
do not expect to be able to overcome the Radii
cal majorities, of holding a separate election for
white voters under the Johnson provisional gov
ernment, is also believed to be held in abeyance
until the last of September, for like reasons.
From Washington.

[Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.]
HARRISBURG, August 19th.—Application has
been made for the reprieve of Alexander, sen
tenced to be hung in Philadelphia on Tuesday
next, for the murder of Mils' Proctor, a colored
woman.
The special plea is raised that the wounds were
not sufficient to cause her'death, had she tAken
care of herself and employed proper medical and
surgical skill.
The Governor has submitted the matter to the
Attorney-General.

FORTRESS MONROE, Aug.. 19.—The body of
Ciaptain Adam Dennis, who commanded a small

cargo of goods i valued at $BOO, which he intended
to dispose of to the farmers for a return'cargo of
produce. He had also ,about his person some
1600 in currency. When he left the city ho was
accompanied by a young man about eighteen
years of age, who subsequently left the yenel at
Elizabeth City. A Strange man, whOse name has
not been ascertained, was shipped at
Elizabeth City . to ,supply the place vacated,
and suspicion points to him as the guilty
party. . When the body was found
there was a heavy axe tied to it for the pur
pose of sinking It. The schooner was found in
Wichicon Creek, widch empties into the Chowan
River, a few miles above Colrain.

Money continues In abundant supply at four
per cent. for call loans to the Stock Y.:change
with exceptional transactiers, at three and five
per cent. In the discount line there is considera
ble firmness, and the supply - of commercial paper
is larger than usual of late, the beat grade being
rated at 6(?)7 per cent., according to the length of
time it has to run. The disposition to realize
on stocks reflects to some extent the
feeling of apprehension. which prevails in
relation to the - future of the money market;
and in this connection it is well to say that
nil fears of stringency through the operation of
natural causes at any time this year are un-
founded. We shall merely have a healthy demand
for money at six and seven per cent. in October
and a part of September, and the indications are
that the supply will be more than equal to it even
when the drain westward is most felt.~ The
Treasury will not, as in former years, interfere
with the free eirculatiori of the currency. It has
ceased to be a horrower and it has no gold to sell
and consequently its operations can have no effect
in disturbing the course of monetary affairs.
Then, currency contraction having long ceased,
the trade of the country has become adjusted
to the resent volume of the circulation, and full
provision is made for the redemption of the fifty
millions or less of compound interest notes` out
standing by the Clone of lifty.millions of three per
cent'eerfificatec which can be - held - aa - legal - ten- -
der . by the banks. Moreover, the general trade of
the country ii without any , speculative features,
and the interior demandfor currency this autumn
will be confined. almost, entirely to the West for
the -the crops.
In the market for government securities an
imPreved feeling and a. Diner volume of ,busl
tees was generally reportelthough at the close
prices were fradtiori-lower than last evening.
The-leading dealers are still enabled to borrow' at
three per cent., but the• disposition of the street -
Ls to overdisconnt higher rates, and In this way
a very heavy "short" interest kas been created
which will materially assist the wpward-reae—
Lion which must inevitably feAlow the present
depression.

NEW Your, Aug. 19.—Arrived, steamship
Saxonia.
Gen. Grans at Home.
The President of the Galena 'Bink,, writing to
a relative in Boston, gives the following account
of Gen. Grant's reception in Galena, on his re
turn-from Colorado,and of his deportment among
the'friends of his former home:
"Gen. Grant is here, quietly spending a fort
night in his home. I sent you a paper contain.
lug an account of his receptiein. The reception
was spoptaneous and informal, but genuine and
hearty. the serenade at his house it was not
expected that there would be any speaking;
but the crowd called some of us „out. I was
taken entirely by surprise, but could not
back out, as I was standing on the porch Heir
the General, and had to say a few words.
He is in fine health and spirits. He walks about
town every day in plain citizen's dress—the most
unpretending man in the niece: He spent most
of the forenoon to-day sitting with us in the
bank. He is one of our stockholders. In pri
vate he is very social, likes a joke and enjoys,
company. He reads the papers diligently, keeps
himself posted, and has a pretty good Idea of the
political situation. 0n Sunday he and his wife
and family walked to the Methodist ehnrch,about
half a mile, instead of riding , in a carriage, as
most great men would have done ; and this, too,
when his friends have placed horses and carriages
at his disposal whenever he chooses to call
for them., But he is a radical democrat
in the true sense. If the good people who are
distressed by the stories told by his enemies in
regard to his habits-could only-look into that
clear, calin, serene and candid face for a few
moments, they Would say that its wearer could
not be a man of bad passion or vicious habits.
It is astonishing how such slanders of public
men, if persistently repeated, will come to be,
believed by their •political opponents, and by and
by even perplex and distress their friends. The
only really,bad thing his enemies say of General
Grant is—that he drinks. This would be bad
enough, indeed, if true, but nothing could
be more • false or malicious. - Dtirhuc all
the time he lived in Galena, I never heard of
his drinking-ardent spirits,- and-I-have-rtever-- ;
been able toJirld. any man, friend or foe, living'
here, and who knew his habits, who could say
that he was intemperate. In fact, there . was no
more temperate man in the city. That
his habits in this respect are the same now, none
who knowhint and meet , him can fOr a moment
doubt:'
"But I have dwelt too long on this, for I know
you have, no doubts on this point. IVe are golne
to have a big mass-meeting here on Friday next,
and expect a crowd to see the General. He will
take nopart In any political meeting, but will be
at borne to see his friends."

Italy and Her Allies.
The,Londoit Mandard says it has no sympathv
with either the French or the Prussian party in
Italy.. The Italian who can, dwell with satisfac
tion on the general relations between his coun
try and its first protector must be either very
forgetful or very forgiving; and the Italian who
can hope for any, romantic assistance froth the
statesmen who were, ready only two years ago to
strike "Austria at her 'heart" must be exceed
ingly obtuse. Matters of sentiment apart,
Italy has been a: gainer both by her alliance
with France and her alliance with Prussia; but
she is no more under obligation to the one than
to the other. Iloth.used her, and she used both;
and all thatian.be said.ta distinguish the'-merits
of these twcrallies is, that 'ltaly likes that one
best wlfiNhich - she has - least to do. Suppose
that in future she had little or nothing to say to
either?: It is just possible that then she might
get genuinely fond, of both of them, and might
do sowitbout- exasperating their jealousies, al
ready keen enough on other grounds. What
has Italy, to do with French and Prussian rivalry?
There 1401:40.1OgigtIOble in the post"ti OP of ` a .

fashion.' 'Political' coquetry does not exalt a
people. The manly attribute of independence
betterlefits a really emancipated and united na
tion.

The Spanish Seta/tees in Portugal.
The'French Government bas declared, through
its usual' organs, thit its representative at Lis
•
bon, M. do Montholon, took no steps to impede
the landing in that city of the Duke of hlontpen
sier, but the Paris correspondent of the London
Times, says that public opinion, in Lisbon as else
where, evidently mistrusts the assurance. Ac
cording te,letters from Lisbon, the population of
that eity,on learning that the Duke had arrived,
but was not about to land, jumped
immediately id the - conclusion that French -Mita
ence was , at work, and lost no time in manifest
ing its displeasure at the interference, raising a
disturbance and demanding with loud cries.that
the Duke should at once be allowed to come on
shore.' The dernonstration had a certain degree
of ImPortance, and the Ring is said to have sent
an officer of his staff on board the Spanish fri
gate to entreat the Duke to lose no time in com
ing on shore and appearing in the Royal box at
the opera, as the speediest , way of dissipating
popular suspicions and, displeasure. If the Por
tuguese Government hesitated at first, or at any
rate caused some delay by not at once rejecting
the•demand of the French Government, it ap
pears, to hale acted with decision when
its mind was made up. In Paris the Op
position papers speak - of M. de IViontholon'a eon
terence as having been very urgent and COM
pletely fruitless.
The Ilrean the Atlantic Cable.
Thu London Star, of the Bth instant, noticing
the injury to the Atlantic cable, says :
On Monday night Mr. Willoughby Smith, the
eminent electrician, started for Valentin, in pur
suance of instructions from the joint committee
of the Atlantic and Anglo-American Telegraph
Companies.- He was followed on Tuesday morn
ifkg by Mr. Latimer Clark; who will verify his
tests, which at present show that the fault lies at
about eighty miles from Newfoundland, in water
not exceeding, if it reaches, one hundred fathoms
in depth, and that the interruption of communi
cation is so complete asio put it almost beyond
doubt that the injury has been caused by the
grounding of an iceberg. ' Communication will,
it is expected, be restored in less than a month,
but meanwhile the other cable is fully equal to
the work required of it.
