OUIt INDIAN POLICY.
A correspondent discusses this subject
as follows :
JIr. Editor:— As there seems to be
some difficulty still existing between the
white people und the red men of the West,
perhaps a brief address upou our Indian
policy would be somewhat interesting to
the intelligent readers of your worthy
journal.
lias there not been a great mistake
made in the course which has hitherto
been pursued in relation to the Indian
tribes upon the frontier of the United
States ? It is useless to attempt to dis
guise the fact that they have hceu made
tho victims to the cupidity and vices of
the white man. Their lands have been
encroached upon, their right» disregarded,
and their wrongs have failed to be re
dressed. Instead of treating them with
kindness or even with justice, and thereby
knitting them to tho white population in
tho bonds of amity and friendship, the
very opposite course has been pursued, and
the legitimate consequences are to bo read
in characters of blood, outruge and retalia
tion. Instead of giving them the rights of
citizens, encouraging them to adopt the
habits of civilized life, to become tillers of
the soil and industrious producers of the
fruits of the earth, they have been driven
•from point to point towards the setting
.sun. But had a different policy been
dopted, these Indian tribes might have
formed a line of defence on our western
frontier, thereby saving a great sacrifice
•of property and life. It is not too late
yet, however, to remedy these mistakes
and to adopt a policy more humane and
just. A striking ease of injustice and

•Oregon Argus. An Indian by the name
l)iek Johnson, his wife, father and mother,
sister and brother-in-law, seceded from a
band of Indians for the purpose of aban
doning their savage mode of life and be
coming tillers of the soil, and settled upon
Elk Creek, in Uuifqua county. They
•were advised to settle on lauds that would
uot be likely to excite the curiosity of land
.speculators. For a time they were undis
turbed. People spoke of their industry,
their sobriety, their rapid advancement in
■the arts of civilized life, with surprise and
.admiration. Their prosperity, however,
■unfortunately for themselves, attracted the
attention of brutal and selfish people, who
•shot Johusou and his father without tho
slightest provocation, as they were en
gaged in their usual avocations,
brother-in-law was tired upon as he rode
np to the cabin, but he escaped. The wo
und children in the meantime had
.succeeded in getting out of the way of

at the immense iron works at Crcuzot, ten
thousand in number, are on a strike. Pres
ident Sncider, the proprietor of the works,

juncture.
Spain. —Serious disturbances are re

ut the troops quelled the riot. General
Prim is accused of having conspired with
Queen Isabella, but the statement is uot
credited.
At Louisville, on Weduosday last, upon
Gio acquital Jacob Johnson, a negro, who
tried for the rape of Mrs. Louisa Hen

The Next Census.—A most important
change of political power will be brought
about by the next census. New Kngland
will lose six members of Congress, the
Middle States seven, while the Wogtern
States will gain fourteen and the South

ded change in the complexion of political
affairs in the country.

Seven or eight rooms at the City Hotel,
Annapolis, Md. were entered by some ex

Homestead & Pre-emption.
I HAVE compiled a full, concise and complete
statement, plainly printed, for the information
of persons intending to take tip a Homestead or
Pre-emption in this portion of the West, embrac
ing Iowa, Dakota and Nebraska—and other sec
tions. It explains how to proceed to procure 160
acres of rich farming land for nothing, ü months
before you leave your home, in this most healthy
climate. In short it contains just such instruc
tions as arc needed by those intending to make a
home and fortune on tlie Free lands of the West.
1 will send one of these printed guides to any
person sending me 25 cents. The information
alone which it gives is $5 to anybody. Men,
who came here two or three years ago and took a
farm, are to-day independent.
To Young Mbn. —This country is lieing crossed
with numerous railroads, reaching from every di
rection to Sioux City, Iowa. Six railroads will
be completed to this city within one year. One
is already in operation, connecting us with Chi
cago ami the U. P. Railroad, and two more
be completed before spring, connecting us with
Dubuque and McGregor, direct. T1
will beconipleted within a year, connecting us di
rect with Saint Paul, Minn. Yanktown, Dakota,
aud Columbus, Nebraska, on the U. P. Railroad.
The Missouri river gives us the mountain trade.
Thus it will be seen that no section of country of
fers sueli unprecedented advantages for business,
speculation and making a fortune. For the coun
try is being populated, and the towns and cities
are being built, and fortunes being made almost
beyond belief. Every man who takes a home
stead now will have a railroad market at his owu
door. And any enterprising young
small capital can establish himself in a permanent
and paying business, if he selects the right loca
tion and right branch of trade. Eighteen years
ntry, and a large por
ill
more
, with a
residence in the western c
mercantile agent
tion of the time employed
in this country has made me familliar with all
the branches of business and the best locations in
this country. For one dollar remitted to me, I
will give truthful and definite answers to all
questions on this subject, desired by such |»er.s
Tell them the best place to locate and what busi
ness is overcrowded and what branch is neglected.
