Ilanisburj; Corrcpo1tdunco Y. Tnnol.
Time lias dealt kindly with Gov
ernor llaitrault, as it lias with Gov
ernor Hayes. Always a iimn ul' impos
ing appearance, lie is now even mure
to thau when he was first prominently
befora the public us n ctuxiid jto for
Governor iu 1872 His fiauie has Leon
rounded by nu increase of flesh emi the
cares and responsibilities of office have
ctveu uo expression of diinnty una men
till vigor to his lace which were wanting
before. 11 is hair of glossy black is still
the same in hue as in former years, but
his tnou.itacliO is now thickly streaked
with gray. Ilartrao't is known mere by
what ho does than by what he says. Since
ho became Governor of Pennsylvania he
has had to deal with some of the most
complex and delicate questions with
Tthich a State Executive was ever con
fronted. A vast number of peop'e, even
outside of Pennsylvania, remember the
Erie Railroad riot at Susquehanna, aud
also remember the bravery, wisdom and
promptitude with which Governor
llartrauft asserted the supremacy ol
the law and put an end to the troubles
In managing the mining troubles in the
anthracite regions he was equally brave
and decreet. When it is known that
the men with whom he had to deal on
these occasions represent a very lar
number of voters, who have always car
ricd their reseutuieuts to the polls, ao
havo invariably deemed any iuteference
with their riht to make a row a personal
affront, it can be seen that Governor
llartrauft in these cases cared more for
the publte good than for his personal
infeiest. Should it chance that he be
comes President of the United States he
will be even more than Grant a silent
President, and he will be safe, bravo,
honest, discreet, respectable.
The Black Hills.
GENERAL SHERIDAN TILLS HOW TO
SETTLE TUB INDIANS.
Chicago, March 1. Twentytwo min
ers left Council Bluffs, Iowa, for the
Black Hills yesterday. General P. II.
Sheridan, commanding the Military
Division of the Missouri, has wiitten a
letter concerning the Black Hill
country. The following embraces the
substance of what he says: The ne
cessity lor two military poats on tie
Yellowstone having been apparent to
luo for two years past, I havo recom
mended their establishment. I have,
without expense to the government,
made an examination of tho river and
selected the sites. The Indian ques
tion in the Black Hills must be settled
by the establishment of the Indians on
the Missouri river, aid for the accom
plishment of this, one military post
must bo located near the mouth of the
Big Horn river and the other nsar that
of the Ton p;uo river. They cao be sup
plied by steamboat up the Yellowstoue,
and constructed of material found in the
vicinity. I itink I can have them
built ior 8200.0CO instead of the $300,
000 mentioned in the bill (Mr. Magin
nis'.) I believe that the htagest de
posits of gold in the Black II ilia region
arc further west than where the miners
aro now working. The headquarters of
the Wind river are goldbparing; so are
the Otvl Creek mountains, the Big Horu1
valley. Powder river and Clark's fork of
tho Yellowstone. The Black Hills have
abundance of good timber for tho tree
less country south of them and west of
the Missouri river. The success of
theso interests depends upoa the estab
lishment of the two posts ninied. Mill
tary operations have begun against hos
tile Sioux, and I deem it necessary to
request immediate action upon this ap
propriation. Some ot the advanced female sufFra
giiita protest againt the generally re
ceived notion that God is masculine.
They insist that the practice of refer
ring to the Supremo Being; iu the mas
culine gender is-one ''from which the
tyranny over women has arisen," aud
they are firmly ot the opinion that the
Deity is a female. Some ot the more
prominent of the sisterhood avoid a dis
cussion oa this newly mooted point by
doiDg.avay with a God altogether.
Chicago, Feb. 22. Shortly after 12
o'clock this morning two men, named
Georpo Cameron nod Fred Schneider,
entered a saloon on State street and
while they wre standing at the bar
Cameron, apparently without any-provocation,
drew a revolver holding it to
Schneider's head tired. He then shot
himself. Both men died almost in
stantly. There is suspicion that the
two men had prearranged this mode ol
dying.
A Pennsylvanian baa taught a canary
bird to sing "Home, Sweet Home." in
this way. lie placed the caoary in a
room whets it could not bear the sing
ing ot othef bilds, suspended its cage
from the ceiling so that it would see its
reflection in a mirror, and beneath the
glass placed a musical box that was reg
ulated to play no other tune but "Home
Sweet Home." Hearing bo other
sound but this, and believing tb music
proceeded from the bird it aw in- the
naorror, the young canary soon began to
cateh the notes, end finally got so that
it sings the song perfectly.
Lucius Pond, the Worcester (Maes.)
forger, wher he reached the Strte
Prison in' Boston, entered the war
den's office with very cool and easy
bearing, holding a rose in his mouth,
and telling the wardas that he ''had
come to pay him a visit." Sa compoi
edly bad the forger aoted that the
hackney coach driver who had brought
the sheriff and prisoner from the cars
supposed at first that the sherriff was
Pond aud that the latter was the sheriff.
Alter one day of solitary confinement,
Pond whs assigned work jo the ahoe
liop of the prison.
Gen. Uoynton telegraph from Wash
ngton oh Ctncinnati ?. t-ntte: The
question of the resumption of silver cur
rency and th retirement of tho preioi.t
fractional currency, was tho subject 1 1
a long cnnlcreiice this evening ut thr
ri'om of the Iloue Committee on At
propriutioiis, ut which lr. Lindcrmnn,
ho Director ef tho Mint, ami Mr.
"cwell, the new uperiotendent ol the
Engraving and Printing 1'urcau, were
present. The committee hiiVe made a
carclul examination of the facts and lind
that the treasury has now on m hand
twelve millions of pilver coin, and acv
eral millions ol' silver bullion. This sil
ver has been bought wilh bonds, aid is
an increase of debt involving an inter
est payment of over 1)00,000 a year.
When this is added to the cost of coin-
age. it is tou'i'i mat tne replacement oi
.... ..... i .
-tho fractional currency by silver will not
really cause any saving to the govern
ment, because the reduction in the ex
penses of the Currency Bureau is ahou t
made up bythe cost, of coinage and the
interrst account. The question, there
fore, for the committee to decide is one
of policy. The chairman, Mr. Randall,
thiuka that it is perfectly safe to begin
the issuing of silver now.
A story is told cf a venerable negro
iu Iowa who was on trial for an offence
against the State. When the lasewas
announced in court, "Tho State of
Iowa versus Sampson Cnar," the r.ged
African exclaimed: -'What! de whole
State of Iowa agio dis chile! Dm I sur
renders." lho Graphic has a funny picture,
rciiieseiitiiia n ass wilh tremendous
ears, stauding between a pile of green
backs on one side aud a pile of coin on
the other. Underneath is this liiscrip
tion: ''The grand dilemma of the
Democratic party Ass. I suppose I
could buy somu fodder with one of
ihem; bnt which? He-haw! I am too
much of an ass to know."
Tho Secretary of the Treasury has
received a letter from a person in Wil
liamsburg, Va., who on seeing the state
nicnt that the public debt amounted to
82,244,420 981 25, thought it would
bo a good idea to dispose of the whole
debt during the glorious centennial
year, and to that end enclosed twenty
hve ceuts to pay the last two figures.
hoping that the Secretary will find five
as devoted friends of tho union ready
and willingjto tackle the rcmaiuing ten
figures.
