Tn consaquency of the recent decision of ‘he Bupreme Court relative to the evidonce secesanry to susiain the charge of cxtortion, Atty.-Gen.

Judiciary Committee, in cousidering the propouition to abolish the office of City Mar- ahal, reported four to one in favor of it, in. stead of tha roverse, as was at first repre- sented. It io not unlikely that the Counoil may abolish the office, since it is evident that none of tho present members can obtaln it, and since such action will place Superintend. ent Hickry at the hend of the force, whoisa fovorito with the Council.

Ono hun. dred dollars in gold would buy $114.87§ in greenbacks at the close, Indiavs can, by suy process, be civilized and educafed. Can they be edncated hy nuy compulsory proceedings, or must tho Indians be pevmitted to perish and pass away as pau- pers, ond idle, worthlesa beggars nnd savag Tho policy urged by the Commission is at best an oxperiment. It proposes to rovolu- tionize tho Indinn social and industrinl sys- tem. It i4 to civilize the Sionx by force. It Is # question of deep concern, apponling to the humanity and pationce of the Amorican people towards these unforiunate and perish- ing tribes, At allovents, we think tho time has como when the Indians shall be com- pelled to accept ay conclusive whatever ar- raugement the Govornment may ostabligh, and the farco of treaty-making be abandoned for the future. The Yeace Society has nl timo of it. No sooner are tho great powers quiet than tha little onea get at it. The Herzegoviniana aro till fighting away at tho Turks. Dox Auroxso and Dox Cantos are mtill Ly tho ears, Tho Ashantees are fighting the Djua. bing, trying to force thom into alloginuce. The Cheen Mnns, a vace of fair-laired Chi- nese, have broken looso and are attacking Noug Han, Tho Kabba Reggas, in Africa, are at war with the Karaques. Thoe Kban of Khokand is still disputing Russianaggression. Malacea is gotting ready to resist Grent Brit. ain, and a rovolution has broken out in one of the Mexican proviuces, The situation can hardly be called satisfoctory to the Pence Sociely. 2 OUR SPANISH RELATIONS, ‘Though the London 7%imes hns beeu prom- ature in finding * wars and ramors of wars” in the relations between the United States and Spanish Governments as nnofticially do- fined in some press dispatches, and though the order for fitting out three American ves- sels of war probably meens nothing more than n pradent preparation for auy emergency, thero is little quention but that the bonds of friendly relation between Spain aund thia coun- try aro stretehed to the utmost tension, and arein danger of snapping asunder at eny aggravation of our complaints. ‘There isalso little doubt but the President will be moro blunt and outspuken in his next message than ever beforo on the foul wrongs which Cuba suffers nb the hands of tho Spanish Govern- ment and the commercinl grievancos of tho American people avising from the injustice of tho Spanish impost laws in Cuba. We have been long suffering in this regard, and it would bo strange indeed if thers had not been generated au ill-focling that is eager for ex- pression, A foreign war not having come within the experience of soveral goneintions, is natu- rally regarded ay outsido the range of possi- bilities, 'The War of tho Rebellion was so regarded oven after Lavcory had mado his first call for volunteers. The American peo- pleo aro not much given to approhension. The tendeney is not merely to cxaggerate, but to regard overything a4 exaggorated. Thero i ‘Tho letter of Don Cantos to King Arroxao, of which mention was mado in Wednesday's cabilo dispatches, proves to bo on extraordi. nary doctuiment. Tlhe letter is o queer com- ponnd of cheek and shrowdness. Premising that o refusal on the part of Spain to recog- nize the independence of Cnba will precipi- tate war with the United States, Cannos coolly charges that * the rovolution which you [Avronso] represent * is rosponsible for the Cnban rebellion, sud impudontly ns- sumes that if he, the rightful monarcl;, had hied tho direction of affairs, no such diffienlty would have baen possible. Having thus pleasantly nsaerted himself, Canros proffers a trice Detween his heggarly follow- ing and the narmics of Hpain pend- ing the war with the United States, but withonut prejudice to his righta to tho crown, which he expects to wenr some day. o enn furnish no soldiers, but will do something in the way of privateers to prey on American commerce. If his proposition is sccepted, the conditions of the truce may be sottled hereafter; if rejected, *“the world will be witneas that Catholio Spain has nobly done her duty.” It is searcely conceivable that this letter was writlen in good faith, or that it will be accorded the distinction of a reply by tho Alfoneist Government, towards whom Don Canrros ocenpies the attitude of a pre- tender, rebel, and tmitor. Beyond the gain- no danger, therefore, that the country will bo in tho least excited over nny Spanish news that looka liko war. If war comesatall, it is moro likely to be actually upon us before wo know it, But, on tho other linnd, it is foolish to dismisa tho idea as impossiblo or obsurd that thera should be such complica- tions as to botray the American peoplo into a forcign war., Our natural and traditionat policy is peace. 1tis a policy to which we always have been, and probably always will be, roady to make sbundant concessious. But wo canvot, on that account, submit to any flagrant griovances, It is as ncces- sary that the United States Government shall protect the lifo and rights of her citizens, shall resent indiguities put upon thoe nation, and demand ecqual copsideration in com- mereo, as that Groat Britain, or France, or Germany pursue this conrse. Bnbmission to any imposition in one case would imply sub- wisgion in sll futuro cases. It would have been exceedingly uncomfortable for us, to sy the least, to have gone to war with Great Britain, hed that Government refused to refer the Alabama claima to a fair arbitration or to abide by the award made aguinst it; butsuch aresult could not have beon avoided in such acuse. So we can only bear with Spanish snobs and Spanish impositions until the ree- ognized diguity of a great nation needs to bo defended, Thoe American canse of complaint against Bpain includes notably three unequal advan- tuges which Bpain insists upop, viz.: The maintenance of tho right, undor a treaty dat- ing as far back as 1793, to search American vessols on the high soas when they aro *sus- pectod " of beiug on a mission of aid and comfort to Spain's enemy; tho unjust and extortionato discrimination of BSpanish laws governing Cuba, by which American broad- stuffs and manufactures are proctically shut out from the oxchango for Cuban products whick wo buy so liberally ; and the continua- tion of o long and cruel warfare in Cubuy, which has boon of n duration and character to juatify tho belief that Spain has not the powor to govern tho island over which sho still insists upon assorting her dominion. ‘The last causo of American complaint is one ‘wa share in common with the remainder of the civilized and commercial world, with the differenco that American interosts are moro seriously affected by the disturbed condition of Cuba than are any others. Not counting this, the American nation, as the noarest noighbor of tho Cuban people and with a nativo sentiment of liberty, must at lenst feel an oqual responsibility with the other great nations of the world in sanction. ing tho continuation of uncivilized warfare undor tho protense of quelling an insurrec- tion, and with only the effact of perpotuating Luman slavery and dostroying tho usefnlness of ono of tho richest {slands on the globe, It is nltogothor liktely that the Spanish Gov- ernment is correct in nssuming that the do- mand for the abrogation of their right of searching Amerioan vesaels on the high sens, under certain circumstances, is with a view to tho rocognition of the Cuban patriots ns belligerents, But snpposo this to be true? It gives no warrant to Bpain to deny to the United Statos Government the considoration which las beon nccorded to other Gov- emmentd, The United States should be oy freo to recoguize the Cubans as belliger- enta—and it is obsurd longerto dony it— a8 Franca or England. Wo should be ham. porod by no more ponaltivs or indignities in doing {t than are the other great nations in friendly relations with Spain. The trouble Is that Bpain looks upon the United States Government ns awalting an opportunity to snatel Cuba from it; and this misapprolien. sion of the situntion hay betrayed it into acts which nre simply calonlated to produce the vory desire it drends, It is not at all impos. siblo that Bpain’s sutagoniam growing out of this nisapprebension, the greed which prompts her to oppress Cuba and diserimi- nate againat the United States, and the arro. ganeo which is of an hereditary naturo, may yet forco our Government to tuke such o stand as will cowpel Spain fo concedo our rights, or forco tho Amezican people to main-. tain thess rights evan at tho cost of war. AR ing of a little sympathy smong the Ultra- montane clement in Spain, the manifesto is not likely to add greally to the Cuban com. pliention, REFORT OF THE BIOUX COMMISSION. The Commission appointed to negotinte with the Indians in the Black Hills resctva- tion have made their reporl to the Secretary of the Interior, and wo publish the full re- port this morning, It will ba remembered that the Commission was sent there to nego- tiate for tho purchnse of the reservation, and that, after n stormy and perilons svassion of mmny doys, fhero was o failure {0 rench any satisfactory conclusion. The report gives a very full and clear history of the whole af- fair, inclnding n statoment of the yeasons of failure, Conspicuous among these reasons, will be noticed, is the interference of per- ron#, not Indiany, who are interested in hnv- ing n largo nnnual money-payment to the In- disns, affording a permancnt fund of which the Indians may be despoiled. Tho recom- mendntions of tho Commission are radical, and they point to a thorongh revision of our relations with the whole Indian population west of the Misaissippi. The recommenda- tions, however, are confined to the Sioux In. diana, The Commission recommends : That Congress shall teke the initiative, and, instend of attempling to nogotiato, Congress shall by law provide for the separation of all the Bioux Indians betweon the ages of 6 sud 16 years from tho adult population; and make provision for the thorough educa- tion of the minors at some point or points whore they will be free from the control and influence of the adnlt Indicns, This system of education to include mnnual labor and in. dustrial schools, and to be compulsory, Hay- ing thus provided for the future civilization of the minor population, Congress shall by law roquire that the adult Indinne sliall per. form lebor as a condition of subsistonee; snd that, after o date in iho future, subsistence shall be jssued only to such as shall labor and to the aged and infirm, A further recom. mendation is that evory Indian be encouraged in the acquisition and proteoted in the pos. session of privato property. 'The Indians now occupying the northwestern part of Nobraska are to be removed to the resorva- tion established by the troaty of 188, whera land suitable for agriculture can be found and supplies furnishied. Supplies shall here. aftor bo furnished undor the supervision of officers of the army. A wise recommendation is that sll the present agencies bo abollshed, and the whola system be roorgnuized so far as relates to the Sioux Indians, and thst such componsation to officers and sgonts bo provided as will command honesty and competency, The In. disns to be notified that such forco as may be necessary will bo uscd to enforeo compli- ance with the policy of the Government, to the end that the Indians mny bocome civil. ized and self-supporting. 'The Governmeut to tako upon itselt tho duty of paying to tho Indians a fair equivalont for the Hills, taking into consideration all tho clrcuastances, and such sum to bo paid to become part of tho fund required in the general plan to educate and ejvilize the Sloux. Thero can bo no mistaking the character of tho rocommendation. It doals direotly with the Indian problem. It puts an end to the wild hopes aud speculations of the Indi- an plunderers. It is a now departure in doal ing with the Indians. The Indiaus aro notoriously beggars and panpors. They liave no thought of labor mor of indus. try. It is proposed to begin a new policy, aud that tho children shall cease to continue lif of pauperism. That the ohil. dron of the Indians shall bo educated {o Inbor, to earn tho bread thoy eat, and to learn to labor for aliving. Tt is proposed thut tho futurs Sioux shall hocome civilized, edu. cated, and producers, Thero cun b no pos- uible progress in civilization until the chil- dren bo suparated from the Iudion adults, and compellod to cowpulsory education and to tho discipline of labor, In tho vame men- ner tho adult Indians must be compelled to Inbor, and cease to live as paupers and beg. gors. The tiwe, we think, hus andved when To. diang shall censa to bo teented as soversig natious! tribes, to bo dealt with gy foreigu Governments acting ander treaty oblipatious, "The troaty-business has ceased to be cntitled to vespeet. The Indiaus know nothivg of treaty stipulations. 'Tho Indians are mers tribesof prupers, insisting upon au exemption from labor, and demauding that thoy bo sup- ported by the Govermment. 'Thay are in turu robbed by speculators end white sooun- drela; und the Indlany, in their ignorance aud {mprovidenas, sre plundered of muoh ust tho Goverament expends for tholr sup. post, It s ons of tho questions whothier the The inaccurscy of some of tho Bpaulsh rumors has brought out the fact that the President and Gou, Smzaxax were usiug the telograph wire several houwrs one dey ro- cently for the purpose of determining the number, churscter, nud qualitications of cortaiu ormy ofticars stationed at variouy Toints throughout the country. Thia infor. mation has also led to tho explanation of thous ingnirfes, whioh is said to be that the Presldout intends to recounnond in his mes- tage tho transfer of the Quartormaster ond Comanissary part of the Indian ssrvice to the covresponding depariments of the army. We hape that this infarmation may paove o be correet, and that the recommendation will ba reeeived favorably and adapted. The expe- riance of roveral years hns abundantly dem- onstrated the wisdom of such n course. So fnr as the colonizing or the educational andre- ligious work mmong the Indinns is concerned, tho army would have no gualifications for tho sorvice; but the well.known integrity of the regular army officers, their knowledge of tho Indian charactor, nud their presence con- stantly in the Indian territory, suggest many economio rensons why these branches of In. dinn sorvica, inolnding supplics and ngencies, should bo intrusted to tho War Department. It will bo onc of the best roforms of the day. ———— e THE REVENUE FRAUDS, . ‘The rovelntions in tho 8Bt Louls whisky cases, 5o far as they oxpose ofiieinl depravity, are appalling. 'They show how wide-spread was the corruption of tho publio ofticors, The Hnpersisor of Internal Revemnne, the Inspoctor of Iternsl Revenue, the Collector, the Gaugers, the Storekeopers, and the Chief Clerk of the Revenuo Offica at Wash- ington, and tho successive Special Agents sent oul to investigate,~all, from 1871 to 1875, deliberately combined to appropriate to themselves the rovenno of the Government. QOne of tho parties states that ho hes no record of lis sharo of the plunder, but it was not less than 370,000 during tho fonrteen months in which ko participated. e ro- ceived one-fifth, Thoe business hogan. in Suptember, 1874, and was bLrought to a sudden stop in Soplember, 18756, At flrst, and Quring the fourteen months covered by the testimony of the witness, only a few dis~ tillers were included ; but the dewand for money and the number of the ofllcials to bo Lribed increased, and #o all the manafac- turers wero gradually drawn in, The tax on spirits during this time was 0 cents on the gallon; and the avernge sum paid by the distillers to the Government officers was 0 conts per gallon. The division, therafore, of the tax was 20 cents retained by tho dis- tillers and 30 cents by the dishonest ofticers. If the shnre of one of theso ofllcora during fourteen months was $i30,000, and ho re- ceived one-fifth of the 30 cents, then we have, 08 tho total rovenue taken during that term, £230,000 by the revenue officers and $167,000 by the distillers, which was oqual to the tax on 830,000 gollons. Subsequently, the tax was incressod fo 70 cents, and sinco then to 90 conts. Wo have not yot had tho rovela- tions covering the later poriod, but the prac- tice was continued on oven a larger scnle,— that is to say, there wore more manufactur- ars, and, of course, a largor amount of whis- ky made and sold freo of tax. Occasionally, in nddition to tho80cents per gallon pald to tho rovonue officers, thore were spocial lavies for round sums to silence visiting officors, and n lovy of 8300 per week was mado to quiet o complaining ofilcer in the Revenuo Burenn at Washington. One special officinl demandod and roceived £10,000 for silence, and sums of various amonnts were demanded in the names of eminent men. Hore, thon, wo hove demonstrated that tho frauds on tho rovenue were not so much for the profit of the manufacturers as they wero for tho profit of tho revenuo officers. Out of a tox of 8417,000, six-tenths wero taken by tho sworn officors of the Treasury, for which thoy gave pormission to the manufac. turers to put nearly a million of gallons of whisky on the markot froo of tax. Noris the depravity of tho officials to bo mongured by these eatablished facts alone. When thoy hind fivo largo distilleries thus subject to their demnnds, they mado use of that faot to com- pel othor distillors to submit to the same mode of dolug business. ‘This process was an onsy ono: The honest distiller was frankly told that he could not sell whisky in competi- tion with tho Riug distillers; that tho latter poid only 30 cents per gallon bonus to the revenue officers, while the honest distiller paid 50 conts tax to tho Government; and that, unless tho latter also joined the Ring, ho would be driven out of tho business. The public officors, theroforo, wero not only guilty of robbing the Government of which they ware sworn officors, but of cocrelng tho manufacturers who wers doing on honest business into uniting with them in a division of the tax. While wo do not excuse nor palliate the crimne of the distillers, wo can imagine no extenuation for the conduct of the publio officers, For them there can be no sympathy or respect. Those are the rev- elations in Bt. Louls. What are they to be in Chieago, Cincinnati, Milwaukee, and elae- whera ? EXEUNT JEF) IANS, And now thero is ou end of the Jeffersoni- an Olub, It L come to an appropriate closo. It has been * going, going," for a long time, and is now ‘‘gono" under the suctioneering hnmmer of a Constable on the streot-corner, tho total assets yiolding $2.93, oud leaving the Coustable 32 cents out of pocket, Thereisa poetical justico in this impotent conclusion of the Jeffersonian Club., It wns ijnaugurated with a grand flourlsh of trumpots and much bombastio tatoment of the reforms it was to introduce. Its mission was to restoro tho JoMersonian standards of political purity ; to winnow the chaff and savo the clear graing of first.class, A No. 1, unadulterated Democraoy ; to eradi- cate the Lbummers and scalawags that hod Iastened upon the Democracy and wero rap- idly corruptingit to the core; and to formn the corner-stono of a structure, every stons in which should be of the brightest and clsanest Domoorntic polish and texture. To this ena the members arrayed thomsolves in clean shirts, pnd there wore kid gloves, and diomond pins, and swallow-tailed coate galore, Corner-grocery fluids, bonzine, and other *‘pizena " were discarded, and the Jefforsonians drank thelr Moma from out erystal, drewn from gilt-necked bottles, and thoy fed upon viands which were not fur. nished by Peztovar. Thoy issued glittoring pronuncigmentos in the stuteliost rhetorie; passed resolutions which emacked of lneo breeches, ruflles, and silver buckles; made gpeeches after the pattorn of the ancien regims 3 ond blow the Democratio trampets with such vigor that the American eagle paused in his flight amond the distilleries and sonred into tho higher regions of ether, every feather rufiling with Jeflersonian pride and every scroan carrying dismnay to the hearts of those who wore not Democrats on the Jefer. yonian plau, As aslow club, tbe Jefferionlans were o sucoesy, but when it came to work they were a doluslon and a sham, The Cosmopolitans wero composed of gentlemen who despised cleans shirts as o mark of weakness and effominacy, who did not wear kid gloves and rufiles, and took their “plzen" stralght, und thought one of Pr- RI0LAT'8 wuppory an Olympisn banquet. They tainted and corrupted the Jeffersonians, They overslaughed oll their fine sentiments, T'hey rallicd tho groat unwashed Damooratio hosts agalust them, and, whea the thne for sotion came, whea the Jefersonians should bava saissd thelr bsuser uf reform and miarched, liko nnother Riorianp the Lion- Hoarted, to resena the Democracy from the hands of the intidel losts, they wero nowhere, They saold the public, and then they sold thomselvos to tho Opposition aud delivered themselves over to Mr. Tleamna dirt-chenp. This was the ond of the Club g a club, and now a Conustable steps in and peizes the ef- foots,—tho pamphlets, speeches, and docu- monts, o tallow cnndle, an ink bottle, and a pen, aud on the strest.corner disponen of them at public vendue. Thia drops the our- tain upon tho farco, The play is over, the lights ara ont, and the audience has gono home disguated.

There isa prablem relative to the timber-londs, for the salo or management of which there is no pro- vision. The settlera are in the habit of raid- ing tha United States forests for their timber, and if no nitention is pnid to their presorva- tion there will be sorious results in the too rapid melting of the snows that supply the mounntoin streams, One suggestion is that tho Governmont shall retain these lands and sell tho timber under certain restriotions, but it is thonght it will not be possible to enforce the regulations. The better suggestion is tho sale of the lands to the actusl mettlers, who will have an intorest in preserving a sufficient proportion of the timbor to protect them. selves.

In order to romove the possibility of fraud in the ad- ministration of Indian affairs, he recommends thoanbolition of the aontract system, and urges that the purchases shall bo made by the War Department, in its Quartermaster and Com- missary branches, theso purchases to be in- spected by army officers, and thon to be de- livared to the agonts simply for distribution to the Indians. ith regard to the Black Hills businoss, he presents tho niternative either that the Governmont shall incresso its military foroo in that region so as to keep out tho miners, or that it shall put such rs- strictions on the Inrge bountics now given to the Sioux so as to procure their assont to the cession of the Black Hills conntry, Ho also strongly roecommends the oxpulsiou of *squaw men,” the white husbands of squaws, from tho reservations ; that the Indians shall be compelled to Inbor in pnayment for their ra- tions, which iz a very sensible recommendn- tion ; and that all Indlons living within tho organized Biates be iransferred to the care of thoso States and that the Buronu be relieved from them. The number of theso Indians is a3 follows: 6,000 in New York, 7,000 in Wisconsin, 8,000 in Michigan, and 6,000 in Minnesota. Chicago, it seems, is to be burned again. We regrot to hear it, but, unlesa tho New Dngland Isbor Reform Leagno changes its mind, we might as well put on double {nauranca at once, sloep Io our olothes, snd put up sheds in the outskirts to sorve aa temporary shelters when the homes which we havo fondly thought wore destined to ba permanent disappear in flame, and smoke, and mshee, and the benoficent da- signs of tiie New England Labor Roform League ro accomplisbod. Theso dealgos were deslared at & recont convention of the Lesgue in Bos- ton, sud scom ®s vet to have provoked no dissont. And of course their wisdom cannot bo tco highly commeuded, What graater hoon osu labor have than tho destruction ot 8200,000,000 of the capital which provides employmont for labor and pays wages? Burning down the homos of & fow thoussud workingmen will stimulate the bulldlng tradej and s not that a mweot belp to tho deproased workmsn? Thoro can be po donbt that, if man- utactories sre moviag slowly, & belsk {ncondinry fire will maka thom go quicker, If trade ia dull, burnlog up its habitations will msko mutters more lively.
