THE QUEStION.
When, a year ago, it was first proposed
to annul all the_ixlstlng Indian trestles,
and thenceforward to regard therie tribes
as wards of the nation, 'and Incapable of
entering Into any valid contract, this
journal ventured to intimate its doubts
eithet of the abstract Justice, or of the
practical statesmanship of the policy pro
posed. -.We should not have hesitated,
then, to condemn the policy in still more
vigorous terms, could we have forseen
that, nominally adopted as it was by our
government, its less than half-way eiectt.
lion was about to subject the Indian
tribes to an experience of injustice and
Indefensible encroachMents, even more
flagrantly cruel _than any they had yet
known. Wa have done just enough in
this direction to strip these miserable say_
sees of the slender shields, in tbe letter
of treaty obligations, which had previous
lit protected them, in some imperfect de
gree, trent. robberies by our Agents,
plunder by our traders, outrages by our
roving frontiersmen, arid dispossession
from their.reseryations by 'our - specua.
zing railway corporations. Since treaties
no longer had any public validity, was it
to be expected that individual citizens
would respect 'any Indian title which
stood in their way.
The nation assumed the nominal care
and protection of the tribes, but it was
little.. more than in name. We sent to
them commissioni composed of our best
citizens, who talked very benutifully to
these Ignorant and savage heathen, but
we no longer made even the old provision
for their material necessities. We inang
urited an admirable scheme of benevo
lence on paper—and on paper we have
substantially left it. We have not execu•
tell the solid obligations of the treaties
which we have repudiated, and we have
utmost wholly neglected the equally im.
pcmtive duties of humenity and justice
under our 'seamed relation of guardian
ship over our unfortunate depen
dents. From every quarter of the
Indian territory, come up the present
ownplaintaof unendurable suffering and
menaces of impending danger, a general
Indian wiir threatens to signalize, as soon
as the nett grass is green. the absolute
[entire of our Indian policy which, what
ever*, actual merits or demerits would
liaybeen, has never been faithfully sp.
plied and practically tested. The respon
sibility:ter thla failure can only rest with
a Gongrees which gratified its parsimont.
nes spirit it the expense of the National
good faith—and will entail upon us yet a
ten-fold cost for the mall savings of its
repudiated engagemeuta. .
QUEER CALCULATION
The Five • Trader estintatei that It costs
on an-average one thousand dollars to

the age of fifteen years, at which age they
aie assumed to be self-supporting. "Every

Pnilarumplue, March 8, 1870.
The Evangelical Alliance, or I rotes
tent (Ecumenical Council, was organized
In 1845. Its origin haa been ascribed to
a deep sense of the evil it divisions in
the church of Christ, which seized the
minds of many distinguished and repre
sentative British Christianit Illi the year
above mentioned, a requisition wpm signed
by a large number of ministers! and lay
men in England. Wales, Boot and and
Ireland, calling for a general clouncll of
protestant christendozn. A. molt cordlal
response was given to this zetuisition,
and in the -month of. October, 845. the
Evangelical Alliance was org a nized in
the city of Liverpool, in EnglencL
The object of the Alliance iso associ.
ate and concentrate the siren h of an
enlightened evangelical prowssnism to
resist the encroachments of erre in what.
ever form it may present Itself and pro
mote the Interests of Scriptural Chris
tianity.
f
One -of its leading objects is - to
secure the right of private judg eut, and
to worshipl - lod according to the dictates I
I
of the conscience. In some plaices- it has
put forth its efforts, in this behalf, in
favor of Catholicies well as Pretestents.
thereby showing that it is entirely free
from the taint of of intolerance. ! It labore
to promote evangelical union; tomato.
tabo and exhibit the essential uaity of the
church of Christ, and to' counteract the
influence of infidelity, especially in Its or. l
ganized forms.
Its !constitution 1.-based upon a few
general and fundamental principles, souls
imam-lacing and existence of God, the in.
epic:don and authority of the Holy
Scriptures, the Trinity in -Unity, the
work of the Holy Spirit in the waver-
Dion and sanctidcation of the sinner and
the immortality of the soul. These min
cipice,it will be seen, are held in common
by all evangelical Christians.
Five meetings of this Protestant Ccu
menical have already been held, as fol.
lows: in London in 1851; Paris in 1855;
Berlin iu 1857. ' Geneva in 1861, and in
Amsterdam in 1867.
Since 1845 branches have been formed
In different countries and in different
localities. Branch societlea are found all
over the European Continent and the
British Isles.
Some three years ago, the Rev. Jame's
McCoah, D. D., then Professor in Queen's
College,
Belfast, Ireland, but now Presi
dent of Princeton College, New Jersey,
visited this country as a delegate from the
General. Assembly - of the Presbyterial/

visit, In the city of New York.
On the 28th oft ; „ a meeting of ministers
and layinen was held In this city, when
the Philadelphia branch of the Alliance
was organized, on a basis similar, it not
identical, with the one mentioned above.
Lag evening the first public meeting of
the Association was held in the Reformed
Presbyterian Church. Broad street. The
. drat speaker was the Rte. Phillip Schaff,
D. D., of New York. Dr. Schaff made
en extensive tour last summer through
Europe and the British Isles. ' The prin.
opal object of his tour was to make ar
rangements for the meeting of the Evan.
geliall Alliance—the parent society we
suppose It may be mad—in New York
next September. He said tho object of
the Alliance was not to establish a new
church, nor interfere with the internal
arrangements of existing churches, It
was not to make or art up • a new creed,
for the hisla was selected from the differ.
era creeds , of different denominations.
Its object is to set forth the spiritual
unity that already exists in the members
of Christ's mystical body—the church,
and to promote spiritual liberty. Union
and liberty go hand in hand. They are
one and inseparable. It labored to coun
teract, by united force, the morements
of superstition on the one hand, an Infi
delity on the other. He assured the au
' dienee - thet the - representation would be
ne large in Now York next. September,
,
as it had been at any previous Meeting of
I the Alliance. Twenty-live of the most
dlstinenished divines is Europe had been

The British Connell hare agreed to pay
the expenses of the English delegation.
Invitationshave been extended to leading
representative American divines to pre.

Bishop little - eine; Drs. McCoah, Plum
mer, Hopkins and Feller.
Dr. McCoah, of Princeton, was the
next speaker. He believed in the Holy

(that one force) manifests Itself in differ•

the church, there is diversity combined
with unity. At the meeting of the Al '

the unity of the church illustrated. I
There were people there from many
nations who spoke, different languages.

softened. The Alliance does netpeek to

There are two eubjects that must be con

and the support of the gospel ministry.

Inaugurated under the approval of the
late Dr. Chalmers, In the Free Church of
Scotland, every minister in the obscurest
place in that Kingdom receives a salary
of one thousand dollars per annum sad
a free house to live in.
At the conclusion of Dr. Neenah's ad
dress, Dr. Schaff arose - again, and stated
that an recursion on a grand scale had
been planned for the Alliance in Septem•
bey next. It was proposed to take the
Allier vi to Niagara Falls, and return to
New fork by way of Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia. One gentleman in New
York has offered most generously to de
fray one tenth of the entire expenses of
the Alliance out of his own private purse.
Our goodly city will have an opportunity
of testifying her regard for distinguished
strangers.
Judge Strong offered • series of resolu
tions approving of the organization of the
Philadelphia branch, tendering a cordial
welcome to the Alliance to meet- in the
autumn of the present year, and pledging
to defray one-tenth of . the expenses.
These were seconded by Ex•Georernor
Pollock In an eloquent speech, and adop
ted unanimously. -

PTITSBURGH DAILI GAZETTE ; THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 10, 1870
OUR MATERIAL HEALTH
In presenting to the Senate, reeentli,
petition kora the anthracite miners of
Bchttylkill, for protection to home :tabor
and interests, Mr. Camszon made vcry
interesting remarks, from Which — we ex
tract as follows:
The anthracite coal region of Pennsyl
vania —which comprises all of any im.
portance in the country—is confined with
in an area of i 470 square milea, or 800,000
acres- /state this now, that it may be
rememberedwhen I come to speak of the
enormous production which has been at.
tinnedi - amfthe Tsar capital. which ie now
invested in thin coal territory. I present
the increase in mined - mai. and popula
tion, in Schuylkill county, Pennsylvania,
giving the igureawith cribs] accuracy:
while ao to the population directly sub
sisting and attributable to the .mining in
terest in the remaining parts of the hard
'coal region, I estimate from billable - ••data
and an intimate knowledge of the locality
and i personal observation of the subject.
The year 1820 mimed the beginning
of anthracite coal mining in our country.
The populallon of the county of Bchuyi
kill—before referred to—and the number
of tons mined were as follows at the be
ginning of each decade since 1820 :

of vastly greater value than all the min'
oral deposits of many - nations of the earth,
sad by no means contemptible nations
either.
But vast as this undeveloped wealth le,
and astonishing is Its development has
been, it is but a trifle when compared to
the bituminous coal deposits of our coun
try, or indeed of Pennsylvania. Within
a circle of one hundred miles, of which
Pinola:ugh, in the western extremity of
my State, Is the dente:, there Is enough
bituminous coal in the eanh to pay off the
tuitional debts of all the governments Of
the world mazy dines over. And It his
been airmailed, from geologlcal_surveys,-
that this coal would pay our national debt
fifty.four times if its stupendous value
could be ieslized it once. This, you will
remember, Is in Western Pennsylvania
alone, and only comprises one descrip
tion of a particular wealth, which is our.
rounded,.and to some extent dwarfed, by
other wonderful resources in that section
of our State.
It is impossible to overestimate the
value of this wealth, or its relations to
other Industries.. It is today the founds,
Lieu of our wealth, and a glance at the
distribution of bituminous coal over the
country indicates clearly to my mind that
the development of this single interest is
the basis for a prosperity, under wise
laws, which woulddo more than anything
else to render us independent of every =-
kraal influence, however it might be ex.

reliable as any work on the subject attain

relating to the anthracite coal arc itipPli

has observed and studied the subject.
In Pennsylvania, notwithstanding :her

more miles of railroad • than any other
State in the Union, while our capital in•

As an: unilcatitm of ihe value of coil iii

A grand total. of
The amount invested in like Improve
ments for, sending our bituminous coal
forward I have no means of accurately
determlningi, but It Is very large. !Frt
the greater - stet; and the greater distance
I inland at which our soft or-bituminous
coal le placed; involves a greater outlay
for transportation. The iff'thie
description during the ! last yearwas
14,118,628 tons, and was chiefly prod uced
from the State of. Pennsylvania. ' '
And whilelhe capital invested ID mkt.
ing operations Is not so large as in the
anthracite region, this marked difference
exists between these great interests, and
is well worthy of - remembrance, !The I
bituminous coal is situated far in'thein
tenter, It suffers greater wasteage in min
lug and Carriage than hard coal, and it is
open.to the competition of a foreign pro.
duct, haying all the advantage of, cheap
mega carriage, while carton. cola must
rely on artificial modes of transPortation,
built at enormous expense, ovens great
Mountain-range, to.bring it to tide water
andan eastern market. ' . •
It will be . tdriarved that these coal ml
ners do not petition you to protect their
especial product. But, with _a clear ap
preciation of the intimate relation be
tween all branches of productive, indus
try in our country, they . ask Congress to
protect American labor and home menu
factures, well knowing that everything
which vitalizes production, vitalizes every
material Interceder the country, and espe
cially its greatest interest-labor. I hope
the statesmanship of these hardindners
may be. reflected by Congress whenever
the threatened onslaught on American
industry shall ba made in the interest of
British* capital, in these halls, under the
label of "Free Trado" or a "Terill for

my own State has mbre miles t& railroad

of the subject let Jae add mother fite n t

neath the surface, far down. In the mines, ,
(in some instances as much as 1,500 feet
below the level of the riven,) we have In
the small anthracite regions more than
400 mile, of railroad, not included in the '
aggregate of railways In the State. I
may be more successful In plaCing tide
frit before Senators by assuring them
that these subterranean railways would,
'formed into one continuous line, reach
fmm Boston to Washington• ' or they
would form a double track road from here
to New York, and beck nein to where
I speak.
While the subject on which I now „ you is; of national importance,l
have outlined my, il lustrationa entirly
within my native State. The personal
kno Trudge and familiarity I posses in
relation to the subject as it Is developed
about, my home and also the higher de
gree of skill that has been attained with
us than in other sections has governed
me in this design. And, pursuing that
course, attention: to the tithe. of
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh in Pennsyl
