The Government paid, at the close of
the previous Fenian raid, $80,(KM in re-:
turning the invaders of Canada to their
homes. At the end of the late raid the '
Government gave peremptory instructions
to its military and civil representatives on
the frontier to pay nothing whatever,
taking the ground that it was under no
obligation, first, to incur the embarrass
ment caused by these expeditions fitted
out to make war upon a friendly power ;
and the second, to relieve the people who
undertook them from any embarrassment
which they might suffer and return them
m safety and without expense to the homes ;
they had left.
The long-pending troubles ijetween the
Sultan and his Viceroy in Egypt are to!

that he has drawn much of his armament
from this country, has shipped sixty thous

American soldiers as officers of his battal

OHIO DEMOCRACY.
The (>hio democracy have taken the field
and put forth their declaration of princi
ples, from which we can judge the position
w hich the democratic party in other States
will occupy. They denounce the tariff
bill lately before Congress, also the exist
ing tariIf, and favor a close approximation
to free trade; declare against the internal
! revenue system as oppressive and annoy
ing; denounce the profligacy and corrup- j
tion of the national administration, its
appointments to office and disregard of
the rights of citizens abroad; proclaim
opposition to land monopolies; declare the
act for the enforcement of the Fifteenth
Amendment unconstitutional, unjust, op
pressive, an invasion of the rights of the
States, and subversive of the rights of the
people; assert the power and dut\’ of the
federal government to tax national bonds,
and demand that Congress assess and col- I
i leet a tax upon them : oppose the system
1 of national banks; and denounce tire ad
ministration for its policy in relation to
Great Britain and Spain.
There is nothing said here about the
large reduction of the national debt effect- ,
eil the last year by the administration ; this
was probably beneath the notice of the
convention. But there are two points
made, one against the enforcement of the
Fifteenth Amendment, the other in favor
of taxation of bonds, which are subjects
of national concern and serve to show that
the fell spirit of copperheadisrn is not yet
extinct. The convention was not very
enthusiastic over its doings and prospects,
but having set an example for the democ
racy of Vermont and Maine ipiietly ad
journed after a short session.
WESTON'S LAST TRIAL.
Weston the pedestrian has been more '
successful in his late attempts at walking
than in liis former ones. Ilis last feat was
walking fifty miles inside of ten hours.
From (lie New York Tribune we copy the
following:
Just as the chimes of old Trinity struck 12,
! the word “Go” w as given, and tile pedestrian
! commenced his journey. At first lie walked
at an easy pace, but on accomplishing the first
mile, lie strode away at the rate of five miles
I an hour. He appeared to bo in fine condition,
| and all his friends were confident that he
i would win. The band played lively airs, and
as the day advanced, the crowd of visitors in
creased. A colored gentleman attended to Mr.
Weston’s w ants from time to time, and took
I every precaution that no accident should oc
cur. At the end of every mile the time was
put upon the Imlletin, and the hand played
the ryust appropriate selections.
Qn at drops of sweat began to fall from the
pedestrian’s face, alter he had accomplished ,
a few miles, and at almost every round he j
called for lemonade. He gained time slowly, \
and when he had walked 20 miles he had
several minutes to spare. About five o’clock j
preparations were made for the pedestrian to '
stop and rest. Blanket* were spread, and a
| chair was placed beside the track for him to '
-it in, but lit1 paid but little attention to his
friends and kept on his course. Finally he
halted, dropped into a chair, and w as iin- !
mediately covered with a blanket. He ate j
rapidly from a bowl of crackers and coffee, j
and in an incredibly short space he was on his
journey again. A child with golden curls
threw him kisses, and ns he moved away her
silver voice bade him good bye. By dusk the
while ruffled shirt had changed to a dingy J
brown, and the ‘‘patent leathers” were ,
covered with dust. The crowd continued to
increase with the speed of the pedestrian.
There were ladies and gentlemen from the
avenues, and with few exceptions, the audi
ence was composed of sucii people as one
would expect to see at a lecture or concert. I
Perhaps it is for this reason that the members
of the sporting fraternity are so loud in their
denunciations of the great walker. By 9
o'clock all the scats were occupied anil every
ear brought more people to the spot. The
excitement increased every moment and the
band played with renewed vigor. Weston
continued to increase his speed as the hour
of 10 approached. The police were active
but tiiey found it no easy task to keep back
the excited multitude. Twelve minutes ahead
was announced, and the vast building rang
with dicers. “One mile more gentlemen”
was the cry, and then the crowd swayed to
and fro and the band played favorite selec
tions from Offenbach. Weston seemed to
gain strength us he walked, and the waiter
lmd to run when he wished to communicate
with him. Toward the close of the great feat
a smile illumined the pedestrian’s face, and
an arch of uplifted arms spanned the pathway
nearly around the rink. “Thirteen minutes
and 55 seconds ahead 1" cried one of the
judges, as the hero stepped on the platform,
and clasped his wife and child, He then ,
walked four times around the rink backward, j
making the following time. The distance is j
half a mile : 1st time, 2 minutes 47 seconds ; [
2d time, 2 minutes 40 seconds; 3d time. 2 ,
minutes 33 seconds; 4th time, 2 minutes 37 1
seconds. Total, 10 minutes 37 seconds.
The time consumed by Mr. Weston in
w alking the 50 miles was !) hours 58 minutes
and 55 seconds, according to the City Sur
veyor’s measurement.
If Mr. Charles B. Knapp of North New
Portland is a democrat, and has been
appointed to office by surreptitious, or un
tair means, as the Portland Advertiser al
leges, there is just cause for complaint on
the part of republicans. But the repre
sentations of the “ins” and “outs,” are ;
often so at variance with each other, that
it is very unsafe to venture an opinion af
ter hearing but one side of the ease, and !
after hearing both sides, it is generally j
enough to puzzle a Philadelphia lawyer to
decide which is right. We presume this
airing of North New Portland affairs at
this time is entirely with a view to reform
the manner of appointments in the civil
service, and was made with no reference
whatever to the Congressional Convention
which meets in thin city next week. Doubt
less it will have a vast influence to aid the
passage nf Mr. Jenckes' bill, and how it
will affect Mr. Blaine’s nomination will he
told next Tuesday afternoon.
The Democratic General Committee of
New York adopted resolutions calling
, upon the different hoards in the city to
j.displace ail republicans in their employ
ment and (ill their places with democrats,
i he hoards have been visited in some
, eases, and although inconvenient and em
i harrassing to thu public service, allrupuli
lieatiR are obliged to leave and seek em
ployment elsewhere. This Is democratic
liberality Exemplified where that party
holds the power.
Andrew Johnson, «o his friends say, will run
i for Congress any how.
SPEECH OF RED CLOUD.
At the council between the delegation of
red men at Washington and Secretary fox
and Commissioner Parker, on the 7th, Hod
Cloud replied to the remarks of .Secretary
Cox as follows:
I came from where the sun sets. You were
raised on chairs. I want to sit where the sun
sets. Here he sat on the floor in Indian fash
ion and proceeded: The Great Spirit has
raised me this way. lie raised me naked. I
run no opposition to the Great Father who
sits in the White House. 1 don’t want to
tight. 1 have ofl'ered my prayer to the Great
Father so that I might come hi re safe and
well. What I have to say to you and these
men and to my Groat Father is this : book at
me. I w as raised where the sun rises and came
from where he sets. Whose voice was first
heard in this land? It was the red people's.
Who used the bow? The Great Father may
be good and kind, hut I ean't see it. I am
good and kind to the white people and have
given my lands, and have now come from where
the sun sets to see you. The Great Father !
has sent his people out there and left me noth
ing but an island. Our nation is melting
away like snow on the side of the hills when
the sun is warm, while your people are like
heads of grass in spring when the summer is
coming.
I don't want to sec white people making |
roads in our country. Now that I have come
to my Great Father's land, see if I have any
blood when I return to my home. The white
people have sprinkled blood on the blades of
grass about the line of Fort Fetterman. Tell
the Great Father to remove the fort, then we
will be peaceful and there will be no more
trouble. I have got two mountains in that
country, Black Hill and Big Horn. I want
no roads there. There have been stakes '
driven in that country ami I want them re
moved. I have told these things three times
and I come hero to tell them for tin? fourth
time. 1 have made up my mind to talk that
way. I don’t want any reservations on the
Missouri. Some of these people here are
from there and know what I say. What I
hear is that my children and old men are dy
ing ofl like sheep. The country don't suit
them. 1 was born at the fork of the Natte.
My father and mother told mo that the lan 1
there belonged to me. From the north and
west this nation lias come into the Great
Father’s house. We are the last of the Ogal- 1
lalas. We have come to know the facts from
our Father; why the promises which have
been made to us have not been kept. 1 want
the two or three traders that we ask for at the
mouth of Horse Creek.
In 1S52 there was a treaty made and the
; man who made that treaty (alluding to Mitch
ill) told me the truth. The goods whieli
have been sent out to me have been stolen all
along the road and only a handful would
reach me to go among my nation, l.ook at
me. I am |g)nr and naked. 1 was not raised
with arms. 1 always want to be peaceable.
The Great Spirit lias raised you to read and
write ami lias put papers before you, but he
has not raised me in that style. The men
whom the President sends us are soldiers, I
and all ot them have no sense and no heart.
I know it to-day. 1 did not ask that the whites
should go through my country killing game,
and it is the Great Father's fault. You are
the people who should keep peace. For the i
railroads you are passing through my country |
1 have not received so much as a brass ring !
for the land they occupy. I wish you to tell ,
that to my Great Father. You whites make j
all the ammunition. What is the reason you
don’t give it to me? Are you afraid I am go
ing to war? You are great and powerful, and
1 am only a handful. I do not want it for I
that purpose, but to kill game with. I sup
pose I must in time go to farming, but I can't,
do it right away.
Each sentence of this speech was received
with loud grunts, denoting hearty applause
from the Indians.
After Red cloud had concluded Little Bear
made a short speech, complaining ot bad treat
ment by the soldiers and other whites engaged
in farming operations. Several of his young
men were shot while out linnting. and that
ended his corn raising. He reiterated the
main features and complaints of Red Cloud’s j
speech.
Secretary Cox promised to report all that
had been said to the President and arrange a
time for a meeting with him.
J lie isoston Advertiser 8 \\ ashington
correspondence says “the struggle in the
House over the tax and tariffquestion was
easily concluded without any of the noise
and excitement of last week. The point
for which General Schenck contended all
day Saturday was carried by yeas 11(1,
nays 54, and then the first section of his
tariff bill was added as an amendment to
the tax bill by yeas 139 to nays 43. The
second section embodying his free list was
next added by yeas 102 to nays 40, and the
third and fourth sections were then added
without a division. On the passage ,if the
whole bill thus amended, the vote stood
yeas 105, nays 35, the only republicans in
the negative being Hays and Heflin of Ala- i
bama. The democrats and revenue re
formers were anxious to have various
changes made in both the first and second
sections, looking to an increase ol the free
list, and further reductions on iron, steel
and certain other articles. The democrats
fought Schenck to the last, but the revenue
reformers concluded, under all circum
stances, to take the bill and console them
selves with the fact that it makes a reduc
tion of at least * 15,000,non <»f internal
taxation, and of about #2<>,<100,000 on the
tariff. The House in the early part of the
day, on motion of Mr. Ward of New York,
declared for free coal, by veas 113, nays
79, and some members wanted to put this i
article on Mr. Sehcnek's free list to-day, j
but it was thought advisable, on the whole,
to let the matter take the usual course, on
the promise that the ways and means com- j
mittcc would bring in the free coal bill to
morrow. When it is passed and reaches
the Senate, Mr. Sherman's committee will
probably incorporate coal into the general j
bill. In that body there will be an effort
made to also include salt and hides, and
possibly some other articles, in the tree
list. *
