mast invariably result iu reducing the
state of abject lielp

negroes back into a
lowness worse than the eyetem of «lav
erv from whioh they had been freed.
Under the head "reducing the judi
ciary expenses,'' the Legislative has
devised a plan providing that all pris
committed to county jails, shall
oners
be delivered over to certain labor con
tractors and worked on farms or in
any other manual labor. There is no
provision whatever made in the law
for the good treatment of the prisoners

upon them, they are kept until these

also work out the coat of keeping them
in jail while awaiting trial, and for
every day lost by siokness they must
work two extra days to make it up.
This sort of convict slavery is establish
ed principally for misdemeanors and
other petty offences, transgressions of
a grave character being punished by
confinement in the penitentiary, of
those who escape lynching or hanging.
It will be very evident to our intelli
gent readers that in a community
where negro freedom is unpopular,there
would be very little trouble under a sy«{
tern of penal administration,in holding
a considerable part of the colored popu
lation iu a bondage more on erou« than
slavery.
For almost any fancied infraction of
the Hw for which a white man would
be overlooked, a negro will be ar
rested aud made to undergo the horrors
of this penal law. The contractor has
no interest, as the old slave-owner
had, in keeping liis laborers strong and
healthy ; he is at liberty, subject only
to an occasional official inspection, to
work them to the very utmost limit of
human endurance. lie may treat them

is then sentenced to pay a fine of $100 ;
that will be equivalent to 400 days of
forced labor, besides the time speut in

a farther penalty for that bad luck, in
the shape of double work,

Mr. McMbnamix, the Reform member
of Council from tha Eighth Ward, by
the aid of over a hundred illegal rotea,
and who ia also chairman of the Street
Committee, made a dive for about $4. r >0,
into the City Treasury last night,to pay
for work on the quarry lot contract not
performed. He wanted to release the
representative of the contractor, and
the sureties though there were still
3P00 yards of dirt at fifteeD cents a yard

though of the same political faith with
Mr. McMenamin,opposed the movement
in snch a vigorous manner that the
proposition failed by a vote of five to
fifteen. The Council evidently didn't
believe in the practical workings of Mr.
McMenaminsystem of reform and sat |

Tho crack of Indian rifle* brook in
npon tbo stirring whirlpool of tho po

cornea the report that a detachment of
troopa on ita way to the UUroaerratlon
is surrounded by the Utea themselves,
the Major in command and eleven of
his men are killed and from twenty to
A

if
a
thirty are wounded; and at the latest
adrices the remainder of the brave lit
tle band tbat marched into the jaws of
death, were intrenched against their
enemies awaiting reinforce
savage
rnents. This sudden Indian attack is
bat the repetition of wbat occurs al
most every year, in revenge for the
wrongs done to the Indians by the gov
ernment, and but illustrates the utter
insufficiency of the little auny that
Congress in its niggardliness has starved
down to a mere skeleton force scattered
in detachments all over a vast expanse
of territory and liable to be destroyed
at any time by a general uprising of
the Indians. In the face of all this
there are still those in Congress and
out ot it who are clamorons for a still
farther reduction of the army, for fear
it might be used on some cases in sup
pressing southern disorders. These
entrenched troops cannot he relieved
until detachments are gathered in from
ail the outposts in the Northwestern
territories, and wheu withdrawn from
one poilit it is ODly to expose that point
to attack by the savage Indians if
they should take a sudden impulseand
strike for what they believe their unre
dressed wrongs. The cause of this at
tack is the old story of encroachments
upon the vested and reserved rights of
the Indians.
It is the old aggressive spirit of the
Anglo Saxou pushing forward and
pressing its weaker brother to the wall
until the latter like the trodden worm
turns to strike the oppressor's heel.
The (ioverment always slow to enforce
its treaties with the Indians, is much to
blame for the outbreak, and therefore
jt is not entirely guiltless of the butch
ery of the little detachment that was
powerless in an enemies country and
in the presence of hidden foes. It is
hard to account iu every respect for not
only this but other Indian outbreaks
upon any other theory than that of the
failure of assimilating the two races so
dissimilar iu their habits and lives.
Right or wrung however, the Anglo
ijaxou lias the present day and it seems
that not only all America but all other
parts >>f the world had to succumb to
the onward march of victorious North

Democrat*, wherever they may re
gide, muftt hbarn the responsibility of
the outrages and murders perpetrated
at the South in order to make that sec
tion solid for the Democratic party.—
The Democrats of Delaware cannot es
cape their share of the responsibility
because they act with them in conven
tion, assist iu forming a platform Of
principles, unite in the selection of can
didates for President and Vice Presi
dent, aud wish to profit by the electoral
votes obtained through the violence and
outlawry which are well calculated to
make the name of freedom not only a
byword and a reproach, but a bitter
mockery. Men caunot act with outlaws
and share the fruit of their deeds, with
out sharing their guilt,as the old aphor
ism that the receiver of stolen goods is
as bad as the thief, is as true now as
when first uttered and will remain so
until the eud of time. Those who wish
to keep clear of the responsibility of all
criminal acts must have no connection
with criminals. They must not meet
in convention with them, must not prof
it by their acts, nor encourage or up
hold them in any shape or form. They
should denounce political murder and
ostracism in their platforms and unit
ing in demanding the punishment of
all criminals, such as the murderer of
Dixon, the assassinators of Judge Chis
olm and his fair daughter and fearless
son, as well as the red handed invinoi

Many parsons appear to taka groat
delight in quarrelling. Indeed, it
seems that they are only happy whan
they are engaged in a controversy with
some of their neighbors or acquain
tances. Keen members of church are
not exempt from the influence of evil
passions, and the oonduct of some of
them savours of anything but Christi
anity. The precepts of the divine mas
ter appear to be unheeded, and the old
Mosaic code of an eye for an eye and a
tooth for a tooth, governs their minds
and influences their conduct. Disgrace
ful scenes often occur, and the actors in
some of them deserve the sternest kind
of a rebuke. The term whited sepul
chre might not be entirely inappropri
ate. It will be well when every man
shall see himself as others see him, as
then reformation may be speedily ex
pected. We may here remark that it
takes dwo persons to make a quarrel.
The choler of the most Contentious will
soon cease if he meets with no opposi
tion. This every one Bbould remem
ber. It is wiser not to notice a false
acousation than to enter into a contro
versy with unreasonable persons in re
gard to it. Opposition begets opposi
tion and adds fuel to the passion which
otherwise would soon die out. False
accusations and evil reports will not
injure a good man. His conduct and
daily life will furnish the best refuta
tion of any aspersion of bis character
or misrepresentation of his motives.
A lie has not half the influence over
the minds of intelligent persons as is
generally attributed to it, and it is
therefore better in nine cases out of ten
to disregard it than tc attempt to cor
rect it by other than a p lain state
ment of the faots, as controversy witb
fts originators tends to annoyanoe
if nothing more. The old adage is as
true to day as when first uttered : You
cannot handle pitch without being de
filed any more than you can enter into
a controversy with the evil minded
without being besmirched in some way.
The truly upright man can also afford
to be magnanimous. He will never
strike a fallen foe, or press him to the
wall in such a way as to do him a se
rious injury. He will rather help him
to rise, and leave him to the punish
ment of his own conscience, trusting
that time will lead to that reparation
which is desirable.

The San Francisco "Call" in a recent
Issue says:
George C. Perkins,Governor-elect,and
ex-Governor Woods, of Oregon, waited
upon General Grant yesterday evening
aud asked him to start for Oregon by
the State of California on the 4th of
October. After a long conversation
General Grant said that lie could not
decide upon any day to go to Oregon,
yet hoped, aud in fact was determined
to go there before he returned East.—
When the General and his party reach
ed the Cliff House Governor Perkins re
quested the Merchants' Exchange to
place him in tnUphonic communication
with Captain Foster's battery. This
being effected, the Governor called to
the General aud said, "General Grant,
I am now standing at,the foot of Market
Btreet, upon the spot where you land
ed last Saturday night and was receiv
ed by the people of San Francisco. To
day I tender to you again the best
wishes of the inhabitants of California
for your future welfare and prosperi
ty." General Grant replied that he
had never used the telephone before,
and had never experienced the advan
tages of its wonderful power. He re
cognized Governor Perkins's voice, and
en interchange of courtesies, bade him
"Good-bye."
