THE REGISTRY EAW.
When Judge Sharswood delivered liis opinion
at Nisi Frius, upon tlio unconstitutionality of
, the Registry Law, we took occasion to com
ment upon the transparent political partisanship
ef the learned judge's decision. That this criti
cism was just, is abundantly demonstrated by
the action of the Supreme Court, which, through
the masterly argument of Judge Aguew, now
reverses the specious reasoning of Judge Shars
wood, and declares the Registry Law constitu
tional. This decision of the Supreme Court,
with all its learning and legal precision, is
couched in language so intelligible, and based
upon principles so nulimental,that the common
people can easily understand it, and Judge Ag
mew's earnest assertion of the true principles
which should and must govern our popular
elections will be read and pondered by thou
sands in this community who ordinarily turn
away from voluminous legal documents as from
something beyond their comprehension.
Judge Sharswood labored to save his party
from the fatal effects of this Registry Law by
"showing that it overthrows “free and equal
elections.” He endeavored to show that, in
various' particulars, the elections in Philadel
phia would differ from those in the State, and
that, therefore, they would not be “free and
equal.” This was the sum and substance of
that partisan opinion.
Judge Agnew sweeps away the fallacies of
this position, and puts a definition upon “free
, and equal elections” which commends itself to
the good sense of all honest men. He truf^says:
. . “That election is free and equal where
all of the qualified electors of the pre
cinct are carefully distinguished from the
nnqualitied, aud are protected in the right to
deposit their ballots in safety, and unpreju
diced by fraud. That election is not free and
equal where the true electors are not separated
from the false; where the ballot is not de
posited in safety, or where it is supplanted by
fraud. It is,” therefore, the duty of
the Legislature to secure freedom and
equality hv such regulations as will exclude
the unqualified and allow the qualified only to
vote. A free and equal election is the end;
regulations to attain it are the means. If the
end he attained, it is evident no question of
' constitutional law can arise on the uniformity
or diversity of the regulations by which the
• end is reached.”
That a city of 800,000 inhabitants requires
different regulations from those which govern
the thinly-populated rural districts, is thus
. eloquently stated :
• “Butis there a necessity for local legislation
adapted to the city of Philadelphia, not suita
ble to other parts of the State*lf not, why
■ is a city charter granted, -with all its large
powers of local government, its special pro
-1 visions for police and for conduct? Whore
population greatly abounds vice and virtue
!■ have their greatest extremes. A simple rural
i population needs no night, police and no
' ~ focK-up. Rogues aud strumpets do not nightly
traverse the deserted highways of the fanner.
Low inns, restaurants, sailors’ hoarding
houses and bouses of ill-fame, do not abound
in rural precincts, ready to pour out\on elec
-1 tion day their pestilent hordes of imported
bullies and vagabonds, and to cast them multi
plied upon the polls to vote. * * * *
j What crime have the freemen of Philadelphia
J committed, that their voice at the ballot-box
<£ - may he stifled by the fraud or force which
' springs out of tlieir local circumstances, and
1 v yet the Legislature he powerless to relieve
them ? Is that a wise and just interpreta
tion of the Constitution which opens the polls
of a large city to such imported hire
lings and vagabonds without a home,
L by adhering to an uniformity of regulation
- 1 unsuited to the city on the one hand or to the
■h country on the other ? Is the Constitution of
so deformed and sterile that her
laws cannot protect the ballot-box of a city
from falsehood and fraud because they admit
of but one unbroken system for the State ?
■tttdieh an interpretation ol' the Constitution is
in merit, and can only operate as au
icentive to fraud.”
And yet this interpretation of the Constitu-
“incentive to fraud,” is precisely that
'hich is embodied hi Judge Sliarswood’s opin
and Judge Agnew shows himself to be a
fearless judge, as well as a profound
able lawyer, when he thus boldly repudi
the mischievous doctrines of a member of

s That the Democracy will invent new
methods of cheating’dt elections, there can be
‘no doubt. That a party that has had the ef
frontery to put the* Alvem-Stewart ticket be
fore a decent. community, will consent to be
come virtuous and law-abiding,Js not to be
conceived. But the Registry Law cuts up one
of the most flagrant rascalities oftheDomo
cratic'party by the roots, and that part of their
old programme must be expunged for the
future. In such places as the Fourth Ward,
.the JdeMullins and Aherns of the Democracy,
aided as they will be next Fall •• by a»De
mocratic police, unless the merciful justice of
the law shall have rid us-of that burden before
Election Day; will still be able to sfuffthe
ballot-boxes, and to drive hone.St electors from
the polls. But the colonizing ‘ business will
'scarcely pay, under any proper enforcement of
the Kcgistry Law, and that it will he enforced,
! may be accepted,as a “fixed fact.'’: :
RROARHRIVES IK THE PARK.
The announcement that the Park Commis
sioners have determined to widen Lansdowne
Drive is very satisfactory to the multitudes
who are beginning to throng Fairmount Park.
This drive, leading to the splendid view from
George’s Hill, will always be one of, wliat the
Chief Engineer calls in bis unpublished report,
"a few grand avenues of ample width ” which
“should always he laid out in a public park.”
Another of these “grand avenues of ample
width” will be the drive on the east bank of
the Schuylkill, and still another will be a simi
lar drive’ following the general line of the river
on the west side. These few drives must
necessarily be broad enough to allow at least
four lines of vehicles to pass each other with
out danger of collision. Less than this will
not meet the future requirements of the Park,
and it is for the immediate future, for what,
will be developed in the next live years, that
the Park Commissioners must now lay their
plans and do their work.
The Chief Engineer, in the same report from
which we have just quoted, urges the necessity
of preserving the “rural or sylvan or picturesque
character of the Park” as an argument against
wide drives, ne says: “A broad road, witli a
wide expanse of bare earth or stone, is emphat
ically expressive of human labor, and is,
therefore, incompatible with scenes of rural
verdure, or of picturesque wildness.” But
whether incompatible or not,-the jieople must
have an abundant access to the Park, or all the
“rural verdure and picturesque wildness”.
will be thrown away. There will be walks
and “Hambies” and bridle-paths, winding
among all the natural loveliness of the Park;
but we must consent to confront the emphatic
tokens of human labor in the few broad roads
and handsome, substantial bridges which will be
needed for the great tide of people that will find
their daily pleasure and recreation at the Park.
If Fairmount Park were the property of some
private citizen, its avenues and drives might be
properly laid out with exclusive.reference to a
preservation of all of its rustic effects. But in
a grand Public Park, —the grandest, in some
respects, in the world, —the “ emphatic expres
sions of human labor ” must make themselves
visible, here and there, where they are needed
to give accommodation to the people, by whose
money it has . been purchased, and for
whose convenience and pleasure alone it is in
tended.
THE PACIFIC ItAIIiItOAD.
The elaborate report of Commissioner Mor-
ris'upon the condition of the western sections
of the Union Pacific Railroad, which was so
very severe in its criticisms, not. only upon the
state of the road, but upon the purposes and
motives of the gentlemen who have’ Imilt it,
has been followed by two other official reports.
Messrs. Wade and Brooks have made a
brief telegraphic report to the effect that, the
road is “as good as any new road ever ma.de
in this country,” and that the work "lias
all been done in good faith.” This is
followed by a report from two others of the
Commissioners, General Warren and Mr. Wil
son, who, while indicating portions of the road
which are, as yet, in an unfinished .condition,
say that the. Company is “rapidly and in good
faith finishing up the incomplete work.” It
will tie remembered that, Commissioner Morris
made little or no reference to the work now
being done on the road, and these two later re
ports supply this important omission. The
weight of evidence is certainly in favor of the
Company's honest determination to finish its
road in perfect order, and it is certainly strong
enough to remove the uneasiness from the
minds of the travelling public which was
excited by the unqualified condemnation
of Commissioner Morris. The public is deeply
interested in the proper ..construction of the
Pacific Railroad, and there is no reasonable
cause to doubt, that a very short time will suf
fice to replace the few miles which were so
hurriedly laid, in the eager desire to connect
the two blanches of the road, in the same sub
stantial and safe style which eh-irr.cteriz.es the
rest of tins great national work.
A SION WANTED.
A certain Christian, of the State of New
Jersey has issued a tract in which lie beseeches
the believers of the whole world to unite in
prayer that the Almighty will place in the
heavens, at a specified time—say upon Christ
mas Eve—some visible and enduring sign, as a
token of the truth, of revelation and the
righteousness of pme leligion. The New
Jersey gentleman desires to -ecure this result
as a means of “stemming the tide of infidelity”
which, he claims, is pouring in increasing
volume over the land. It may bo unjust to
entertain a suspicion of this imaginative gen
tleman’s motive; but it is impossible to divest
one’s mind of the motion that he is more
anxious to gratify his appetite for the mar
velous, and, perhaps, to gain some notoriety as
the designer of the scheme, than to advance
the cause of religion. The proposition savors
somewhat of profanity. The age of miracles
dfas passed
did light of Divine revelation, clamor for a
visible and special demonstration of Almighty
presence and power, comprehend poorly Llie

The British Government lately entered into
new contracts with the C.unord and Inman
lines of Steamers, "for the conveyance of the
mails to the United States.. These lines are to
receive, for oiglit years to come, about £117,-
000. or sr>Ss,ooo in gold, per annum. The
completion of the contracts seems to have been
effected in some underhand way, or by some
oversight in the House of Commons, a com-
mittee of which had reported against them.
The English papers not in the interest ’ of the:
contractois have made serious complaints
against the new, contracts, but they'see.no re
medy, and so, for .-eight years, the Cunard'and
Inman lines are to do a sendee at an enor
mous price, which other parties were prepared
■to do better and more cheaply. The Cunard
company is the spoiled child of the English
government, and it hits become very care
less about the mode of performing
tlie service required of it. Having
managed to have the time limit for their voy
ages removed, they make these voyages longer
than they used to be, for the sake of saving
coal. A letter from the London correspondent
of the New York Tribune says that most of
; their ships now require from eleven, to fourteen
days to make the voyage from New .York to
Liverpool. Mails that used to be delivered in
London on a Saturday, now reach there only
on the Monday following. Great complaints
are also made of the table on the Cunard
steamers, and of general discomfort among the
passengers. The French and German steamers
are said to be superior to them in every respect.
It is to be hoped that a time will come when
American steamers can compete with the Cunard
line; but the heavy subsidy given by the Eng
lish government prevents this now. Congress,
however, at its next session, may do something
to encourage shipowners to enter even against
such formidable competition. A moderate
bounty for every able-bodied emigrant brought
over, with the tools of his trade or art duty free,
would enable American steamers to enter the
lists and secure a portion of the.enormous and
glowing trade of immigration. Every such
passenger would be worth hundreds of doHars
to this country, and the Treasury could pay
a year’s cost of bringing over such immigrants
out of the savings from almost any one of the
“ leaks ” lately stopped by Secretary Boutwell.
As the Age cannot get up any enthusiasm
over the Democratic nominations, and as it is
too timid to join with respectable Democrats
in denouncing them, it concentrates all its
energies upon the Republican party and abuses
it with more vehemence than ever before.
Discussing the decision of the Supreme Court
upon the constitutionality of the Registry law,
it says “the whole thing, in its inception, its
progress, and its palpable objects is a fraud—
a low, villainous fraud, altogether worthy of
the men who have concocted and sustained it."
The indignation of the Age. is excusable, be
cause it is well aware that the decision of the
court, sustaining the law, effectually thwarts
all those little plans, which had been
laid so nicely by the Democracy for
carrying the city in the next election. But
when it accuses Judges Read, Agnew and Wil
liams of fraud, because they gave an opinion
in accordance with their political convictions,
it forgets, perhaps, that Judges Thompson and
Sharswood are open to the same imputation
for the same reason. We might, indeed, with
more justice, make such an accusation against
the two latter gentlemen; for, while the three
Republican Judges touch this matter with
clean hands and a clear record, Judge Shars
wood already suffers from the imputation of
having been mixed up in the naturalization
business by which parts of the city last fall
were made to give Democratic majorities
greater than the entire inale population.
The French Cable is approaching the Ame
rican coast, and we may hear, to-day or to
morrow, of its landing at St. Pierre. The
news will come by way of Brest and the Eng
lish cable, crossing the Atlantic twice. St.
Pierre is one of a group of three little islands
in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, about eighty
miles south of Newfoundland. They belong
to France, having been retained as a depot for
French fishermen. From St. Pierre another
cable will he laid to a point on the coast of the
United States, Duxbury, in Massachusetts, be
ing the place generally named. The little
group of French Islands, St. Pierre and Great
and Little Miquelon,' contain a population of
about one thousand, which is largely increased
in the fishing season.- The new cable will
avoid touching British soil altogether, which is
an advantage. At the same time, in case of
war between Great Britain and France, or the
United States, it would not tie' difficult fur a
British cruiser to cut the cable.
The Age contents' itself with denunciation of
the decision of the Supreme Court sustaining
tlie Registry law, and with vilification of the
Republican judges. The Age would lie likely
to convince more persons of tlie excellence of
tlie Sharswood decision and of the injustice of
tlie law, if it successfully answered some of the
masterly aiguuu nts advanced by Judges Head,
Agnew and Williams in support of tlieir po
sition.
The Friends and the Indians.
On the 23d and 24th of June the Executive
Committee of Orthodox Friends on Indian
Affairs held meetings at Damascus, Ohio. The
business was largely of a preparatory char
acter, but a number of Agents were appointed
from among the ranks of the Society, and the
funds of the body at large wore levied upon,
with-that cool confidence characteristic of the '
Friends, for the Committee’s use. The latter
will draw, for thoiy qxpenses, a Hum of two
thousand dollars. The proceedings of the
' faceting appear to have been very “solid.”.
Every Agent-proposed wan separately andde
liberately considered, and the number of nine
appointees was reached. Most of them are
■ Western Friends, but oho; Jonathan
Itichards, is from Philadelphia. A list

AMEBM AS CITIZENS IS CERA.
. ActN ofjiwgliib Officials in Cuba the Sab*
' lect of (Cabinet oiscnssion—Unjosti
liable Execnttou ol an American Citi*
sen.. I
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald says: '.
The attention of the President has been
called to recent executions in Cuba of Ameri
can citizens without trial or. color of law. The
case of Speeknian, in particular, has been
made the subject of Cabinet discussion, and I
bave.the highest authority for the announce
ment that"an official investigation luts been or
dered. Not only have instructions been for
warded to our Consuls to inquire iuto all the cir
cumstances surrounding tlio case, but*in an
ticipation of some trouble, Admiral Hoffhas
been ordered to despatch a war vessel to San
tiago do Cuba to back up the efforts of our
Consuls to Obtain reliable information, and it'
necessary demand satisfaction. All the in
formation thus far obtained by our Govern*
merit relative to Speekman’s execution tends
to show that it was destitute of a particle of
justification. The facts forwarded to you by
one of your Cuban correspondents are corrobo
rated by the intelligence received . at
the State Department, and leave no
room to doubt that the execution was
completely inexcusable on the ground of in
ternational law. Indeed, it would seem that
outside of the city of Havana the Spanish
authority is powerless, and that the volunteers
do just as they please, without the slightest
regard to the wishes of Eodas or his subordi
nates. There Is reason to believe that the
Governor of the district in which Speekman
was executed was opposed to the act, but was
overruled by the volunteers, who, spite of the
protests of our own Consul and the Consul of
Great Britain, put their victim to death with
out waiting tor the shadow of investigation.
THE LATE MILLARD FILLMORE.
Another Ex*Prealdenton the Situation—
What a Political Fossil Thinks or
Grant.
A reporter of the New York Ib rokl, in tiie
course of a conversation with Millard Pill
more, extracted the following opinion from
him:
The first subject of conversation introduced
was that of C caeral Grant and Ids administra
tion. Mr. iMlinore believes General Grant
means well " iishes to do right, but that
through his it?v .perience in politics and pub
lic affairs he J,-uS got himself into the meshes
of the politicians, and has lost the finest oppor
tunity for benetttting the country, He relerred
particularly to Gen. Grant’s position immedi
ately alter the inauguration,with regard to the
Tenure of Office act and the difficulties which
the politicians in Congress raised about the
Cabinet. He thinks that had Graut been firm
in requiring the repeal of the Tenure of Office
act and the confirmation of Ids Cabinet as first
formed the Senate would have yielded, for
Grant held at that time the confidence of the
people and would have been supported by
{hem. Besides, Senators as well as members
Of theTlouse wanted the distribution of the
offices, and tbo President had, in
tiie power of nomination, the winning
card. Had he refused to make any ai>-
pointment.a, unless this act were repealed, tiie
Senators would have been so impressed by Ills
firmness find so anxious to get the offices for
their friends and supporters that they would
have swept the act Iroin the statute book. Nor
would they have embarrassed tin) President
about his Cabinet, nor have led him to change
tiie original rastofittosuitthei.rpolitical views
and ends. Distasteful as were his first Cabinet
appointments and the polieyinmakingthemto
these politicians, and much as they wished to
cling to the power they had acquired over the
Executive, they would have surrendered for
the sake of the otliees, and in face of Grant’s
firmness and popularity, had he been deter
mined and unmoved. It was a glorious oppor
tunity to restore..the equilibrium, which had
been destroyed by the usurpation of Congress,
between the different brandies of the Govern
ment. The ex-President regauls that Issue as in
volving the greatest consequences—an Issue the
importance ofwliicb Gen. Grant failed to eom
prehend.aml which may change forever the
practical operation of the government. Look
ing at tiie tendency of all public bodies to
usurp power and the tenacity with which they
cling to it when once acquired, it maybe a
long time, if ever; before the opportunity oc
curs to restore the former equilibrium be
tween Congress, the Executive and judiciary.
The danger is that under the name of a repre
sentative and federative republic the gov
ernment may become an oligarchy of politi
cians.
FROM PIJEBfO into.
Reported Ctrcat Revolution Ajratust
Spain in the Inland ol' Puerto Itieo—
’llie City of Ponce naid to have been
Burned to the tiround—Families Flee*
ing from the Island.
Havana, July 2. —Under the heading of
“Revolution in Puerto Rico,” I liml the fol
lowing in a Kingston (Jamaica) jiaper:
Special advices from Puerto Rico announce
that a great revolution against Spain has
broken out in that island. The city of Ponce
h:u> been set on lire by tho insurgents and
nearly burned to the ground. CiVculars have
been distributed ordering the negroes and the
natives to burn, all houses marked with blood.
All houses of wealthy Spaniards were tints de
signated, but those who owned thorn were not
discovered; however, .some of the most pro
minent were killed after the fires. During tho
confusion several soldiers were also killed,
and the authorities did not attempt to main
tain order. Most of tho richest families have
left, for St. Thomas', on their way for Europe
and the; United States, among them Mr.
Cabriera and family ;Dr. Piial,Mrs. Mandri and
family, Mr. Molinda, and Don Manuel Ferris
y Sopos arid family. Many poor people fled:
to the mountains. The overseers of the neigh
boring plantations and the white laborers have
been conscripted by the authorities. A gene
ral uprising was. momentarily expected. The
soldiers were mostly raw recruits from Spain
and wrire rapidly dying of yellow fever. TEho
revolutionists were becoming bolder, and were
only waiting the ' yellow fover to continue a
little longer its deadly/ work before commen
cing an active,warfare, i- The negroes, too. bad

V THE VIRGINIA ELECTIONS. )"ki:
The Presidential’ Reconstruction Policy
Endorsed' toy Viißinln.
Tho. Washington correspondence of : the
New YorkT/crdd says: ■
There is some displitp here.as to the signifi
cance of the despatch sent to -the. President to
day by the chairman of the State Central Con
servative Committee of Virginia. Some per
sons were disposed to regard it as sarcastic;
but it appears that at tbeWhite House it is not
received in that spirit. The President regards
the success of the Conservative ticket as an
endorsement of his policy, at least so far as the
adoption of the State Constitution is con
cerned. Governor Walker claims to : he 'a.
Grant.man, and so do many of the successful
candidates, both , State and Congressional.
Viewed in this light the despatch of Mr.
Daniels seems to have heen sent in good faith.

Thliupav, July /C— -We notice no material relief to the
local money market to-day, und th** impression is gene
ral tluit the persistent stringency is dnemaiuly to arti
llcial causes. From the fact that the payment of -*3«-
450-OOOof currency on Saturday in the purchase of V.
S. bonds failed' to ease the money market, it te in
ferretl that\this new supply Wft-** locked up by Wall
strict operators. But in the condition of the New
York money market on Saturday, when currency was
held at U of one percent., ft is evident that so limited an
nmouut could have but little effect, upon the market.
That a real and not firtitious scarcity ot currency exists,
all olong the H'ahourd, is manifest from the present con
dition of our own market, which fails to show any “let
up M In the stringency which has ruled.so long. The fact
Is that the money current is now Hct in towards the
South flint West, and until it ends, a pdor ond dear mar
ket may he expected. Meanwhile Secretary Boutwell
will do well to let out all tlio greenbacks he can spare.

The New York Money Market.
[From tlieNew York Herald of to-day.l
Wkwxksimy, July 7.—The course of the market to-day
wan as variable us tho weather on a <lav in April—first
cloudy, then sunshine, theu cloud* again. Tin* uneasy
ami depressed feeling .which marked operations yesterday
continued this forenoon, and as stringency in money was
maintained with steady vigor the disappointment was
quite profound, and the tendency to sell became so uni
versal that there was an extensive ••unloading" all
around. The apprehensive feeling us to money
was heightened hy . reports that the cur
rency lmiuucc of tin- Treasury on tho Ist, of
July was forty milliunsiustend of thirty-seven millions,
as at first stated. It led to a downward movement atth*
first hoard, which was unchecked in the immediately
subsequent transactions in the Lons Hoorn, tht* Gold
Boom ami the Government-Hoard. The earliest rates on
call wore a sixteenth and an eighth, hut as high as three
sixteenths was freely pahl and perhaps one quarter ex
ceptionally. The depression was greatest.about Ulcloclc.
Soon after the adjournment ot the last Hoard it rumor
was started that Secretary Houtwellintendeil purchasing
from three.tn seven millions of bonds this week (one ver
sion had it to-morrow bawl the chnnge was instantaneous
from gloom to buoyancy and confidence. At tho same
time tin* rate for money relaxed to seven per cent, by
three o’clock, and wan lowered at six. Toward halt*
past three, when there wero few borrowers, and back
accounts seemed .to have been nil made up tho
storv was then doubted, because the Assistant Trea
surer, General Butterfield, had received no intima
tion of such a step on tho part of the Secretary, and
Washington teleurams did not confirm it. Those
who had been in such haste to buy, now began to query
whether they hud not been victimized by tho cliques
again. The circulation of the story at Bitch a time lias a.
-very suspicious appearance. It ho hoped,of course,
that Secretary Hmitwell will release currency to general
use; lmt the report to-day seemed premature and a stock
gambling device. Whether true or not, it was very skil
fully used by the cliques. In flic rush to londmoney at
the close, they probably aided the buoyancy of tho mo -
ment hy contrihutingto tho supply of, funds available
for loans, while the smaller dealers in money wero
frightened into letting theif money go at any price in
preference to keeping it unemployed over night. 1
Foreign exchange waa firmer, .under a better demand
. fpf bills originatingiu tho lowAr price of gold, and the
•primelmnlcers put up their rates to 110 for sixty days
ami llOli for sight sterling hills. Tho change took place
In the afternoon simultaneously with the easier state ot
tlio money market. . . ,
•' The gold market reflected theso changes very closely.
Underthe continued stringency in monoy there was a
stdady decline to 134. Tho recoil, however, was greater
than tho fall,. As soon an money became easy aim ex

THE INDIAN PEACE COMMISSIONERS. '
; Washington, July B.—A nice little quarrel
has been going on for some time between cer
tain members of the Indian Peace Commis
sion and Commissioner Parker and Secretary’ —-
Cox, which, at one time, assumed a very seri
ous aspect, but through the decision of Pre
sident Grant an open rupture was avoided
and the affair partially arranged. Thus far
the matter has been kept secret from the pub- t
lie. It appears that after the appoint
ment of tills Commission by President
Grant, certain members, including Mr. Wm.
Welsh, its President, maintained that tbe
Commission was not merely an advisory body,
but possessed, under the law,executive power,
and that all moneys appropriated by Congress
to be distributed among the Indians,and to car
ry into effect, the law which created the Hoard
otit/lttpropei'hj to pass into their hands, and not >
to the Indian Bureau. Secretary Cox and ■'
Commissioner Parker took opposite grounds, ’V -
saying that If this construction was placed
upon the law they would be nothing more
thanmere clerks, and Congress certainly never >
intended this. Considerable feeling seems
to be manifested by one or two members of
the Commission, who prepared a confidential Y
letter addressed to their associates, in which
both Secretary Cox and Commissioner Parker ~
were referred to in not very complimentary ' {
terms. Finally President Grant was appealed. /;'*
to, and lie sustained the views of Secretary
-Cox anil Indian-Commissioner-Parker,-that
the Commission was merely an advisory
body, not vested with Executive power. An
interchange of views between the members
of the Commission disclosed the fact that
all but two members were in favor
of acting in accordance with the interpreta
tion placed upon the law by the President and
his Cabinet, to whom the question Was sub
mitted. This not being satisfactory to Mr.
Welsh, the President of the Commission, and
Mr, Campbell, of Missouri, they tendered :
their resignations to the President, who
promptly accepted them. It is understood '
that the President will not fill these two vacan- s
cles lor the present, at least. The Commission .’ J
leaves next week for the Indian country on an M
extensive tour of observation.- The country- jm
has been cut up into three districts, and the m
