Nov, 4.—Tho puoile have this week bvon greatly perplexed whut to thin of the positive yet contradictory statements which havo been current regarding Mr, Giudstonc's contemplated retiroment. Now there is no doubt whatever that Mr. Gladstone will take’ the first opportunity of withdrawing from pub Ne life; tha only question Is.asto when tho op- Portunity will prosent itscif. But the contras dictious which have passed on this subjcot be- tweon the Standard and the Daily News are highly Interesting. At Leeds, lately, tho Pre- toler had ronarked that “repose.of mind and reflection wero more approprinte to bis thine of life than public business; and had Implied that at no distant dato UIS TERM OF PUBLIC SERVICK WOULD EX- PINK, He Ikewise added: “1 do not on that accnunt Jook furward with: the aslizhtest lack of cuntl- deneo to your future as the Liberal party of thiscountry, I know that whon I depnrt Lahail band over the charge that fa now intruated to me to othor bunds... TL apenk of Lord Granville, . . . Tspeak also of Lord Harting= ton.” Talking this for its text, the Standant came out boldly on Tuesday Inat with tho an- nouncement of Impending changes in tho Cabl- net, and stating that {t bad “rounds for tho belief that Mr. Gindstone meditates retiriog al- tegether from oficial life,” Thereupon some- body at once telegraphed to Mr. Gludstone to learn the truth, and his tefegram in reply appeared in ‘tha evening papors, as follows: “There is nothing of any kind to be addad to my public decluration on this subject.” Noxt day tho Dafly Nes contradicted the Standard; while the Standard persisted in {ts statement, and replied by anticipation to the contradiction of tho News, * It was senrcely necossary,” said tho Inttor, “that the question to which Bir. Gladstong tolographed an answer yesterday should bave Leon put to him at all. ‘Tho nti- nouncement by a contemporary wasn bolt, not to gay reckless, Inferenco frum Mr, Gindatonu's own statomonta at Leeds." Tho Standard, on tho othor band, declared: “ Tho Prime-Minlstor has corroborated our information, both by ab staining from challenging its accuracy, and by referring tho public, with a churactoriatic tmix- ture of candor and reacrve, to the recent declara- tlon in which be yaguely anticipated what has alneo become with him a imore default reaolye. We had ample grounds for tho intination wo published yosterday, and which, our renders may ‘be assured, is a8 authenticas ft 1s correct.” TO UNDERSTAND CLEARLY THIS CONTRO- VERSY, it ought to be premised that tho News, as the leading Lineral newspaper. {s oxtromoly jenlous of any poaching on its preserves—espocially by tha Slandard, the leading Conservativo news- paper. But, forall that, the Standard basshown nsympathetic presctenco of Government mens- ures and intentions which bas procured !t tho designation of “Minlistorlalist,” and the nick- name of “Gladstoutzing Standard." some months ago, when overybody was on tho tenter- honks of curiosity ns to tho nature of tho atitl undivulged Irish Land bill, the Standard came out one morning with an outline of its scopo and provisions. “Of courao, the News questioned the Slandart’s authority, and even committed Meclf so far as to dong the uccuricy of its information, But tho event proved that tho dows was wroug and the Standard right; somo- how or other the latter had got what you might call the inside track," Byen though Mr. Gindstone do not retire within tho uext twelvemonth, it would be rush to set down the Sfandard's statement us moroly n reckicas Inference of ity own, As I have stated above, Mr, Gladutuno’s Intention fs to « RETIME AT THER EAULIEST POSSIBLE MO- MENT. It bas not necded the accuslonnl cautions of his medical advieer and netyhhor, De. Andrew Clarke, to remind bim of the frct that pubilo fe and Parltumontury Joadership entail on u man constituted as ho ga burden and a strain tho benriug of which post middle sife ta moruor leasa tempting of Providence. ‘Tho’ waste of nerve-force occusioned by heated dabates, popu- lar complimentary demonstrations, and such excltements, {a “nut repaired nt 70 by the easy process which Naturo obscrves it 40, or even 60 years of ago; and Bir. Gindstone knows that from experionce. But, on the othar hand, the exigencies of tho moment conilluc with che Pritne-Diinister's wish and Intention tn the matter, He is not the tan to abandon tho belm ota tine when it cno hardly be said that tho sbip of Stato Is clear of rough water. When aifnira are a tlttle smouother—when one or two provlens how confronting the country have boen solved or {nid uside—then, and not tilt thon, will Mr, Ciudstono feel himseif free to seck the “repose of tnind” which be desider- ates as the thing chiotly “appropriate to the latest stage of our buman oxistonce.” But Cabinet changes ure biehly probable before that time comes; and it ought to be montioned that Lord Derby muy now bo iookod upon ns eligible for oltice under o Liberal Adinintetra~ fon.

Tho municipal claa- dons are of genoral importance only so far na they afford a sign of national party foeling, and it must bo confessed that in this light tho Roriea havo eome reason for Felf-congratutauon, For example, in a scoro of towns whero the Pur+ NAmentary olections are niwaya close. conteats, and whore tho mujority, whether Liberal or Conservative, was oxtromely gurrow ut the Inat eneral election, the present municipal cluce Hons have tesulted tua clear galn of fifty seate for (ho Conservatives.

THE INDIAN. Policeman Crow-Dog’s Slaughter of Chief Spotted-Tail, Important Deelston of tho National Court in Nakota. Tho Homioide Held Legally Subject to Be Put upon Trial. If Amoennable to the. Laws, Is Not the Red Man o Voter? Kpeetat Corresponitence of The Chicago Tribune. Deamwoon, Ds 't., Nov. 15—A quostion haa Just. been deotded in the United States District Court here—Judgo . C. Moady vrestding— which rivats, in polnt of interest, any Judichl production of the, West known for sumo years, In ko far ne it beara wpon 2 question of suffrage. The rod “ coifec-coolor" of the Weat hna beon butfeted around consklerably by tho courts, but ‘this disquiaition upon his rights if it 1a sustained by tho Supromo Court—where it will no doubt bo takon—Is ahoad so far. The decision in brief holds that tho trenty of 1869 with the Sloux Nation abrogated Seo, 2,140, with Its appendage, which oxcopted from trial and punishment an Indian committing o crime Hgalnst anothor of the anme race. TIth IIBTORY OF THE CASE is this: On tho 6th of Auguat Inst, at the Rosn- bud Agency, 2 full-blvod Indian named Crow- Dog—or Kan-gleshunes for short—Sergeant of the polloe, or something of the kind, shot and killed Spotted-all, the noted Sloux Chief, a friendly Indian, who knew Washington hy beart because of his many journoyings thithorward, and a red of moro than tho average wisdom, honesty, and good traits goncrally. Crow-Dog, with a very commendabio aptitude for white tactics, sot up the plon of self-dofenso, allezing that the deceased Spot was making hostile demonatcations at tho timo of thocircus. There had been a grudge betweon the two for a long timo; and it occurs to your correspondent that Crow-Dog didn’t retreat ns far “to tho wall" a8 he might bave done. Boling a polleeman, he had right to uses “billy ora gun as often and aa early as be deemed ft, However, that docs not matter. Whethor Policeman Crow wos right or wrong ws IsN’T IN THE ISSUE MERE, and I don't suppose it will be In tho minds of the jury, inasmuch as the deceased was of the hateful color, Crow-Dog was arrosted, an indictmont was found against bim, and he was brought to Dead- wood for trinl. Hise counsel immedintely on- tered n demurrer, reciting that the prisoner at the bar demurred to the Court taking cogni- zatico of the olfenso upon tho ground that tho sald offenso was committed by ono Indian ngalust the person of another indian, His coun- sel relicd upon Sec. 2,140 of the United Stucos Revised Statutes, on the oxceptton therein, which excopted fram tho orimls act extender to the Indian country * cortalu crimes committed Pe ene ndlan against tho person of anothor indian.’ The rullag of tho Court waa a long and ox- huuative one. It raviewed in extenso tha intont aud ovldent purpose of Secs, 2,146 and,3,140, ro- intiog to .tho punisbment of crimes by one Indinn nygninst the person or propert: of another Indian; the evident gonora! policy * o the United Status Government toward Indian tribes; the treativa with tho Tndinn ontions, and with tho Brule Bloux, to which these two reds belonged, in. particular; and concluded by ovorruiiug the deinurror in wonls like this: ** Therefore I amcloarly of the opinion that thia defendant 18 LEGALLY SULJECT TO DE PUT UPON TRIAL for the crime alloyed in this Indictment,” add- ing: "The public troaties with thoso Ipitians show them to be subject to auch nuthority a3 ull aro who aro within tho torritorin! mits of tho Uniter States, Indoed, it dous uppenr that the person killed was one of the principal Chiols of that Dand, and sizned tho tronty"—re- forring to that making them subjoct to tho laws of the United States, All this ia very well; but there is another nienden ralsed by this decision. That is after thisstyle: fan't un Indian avoter? Heretofore all the decisions of the courts hnve been Arey that an Indlan, or 2 person having a predon! nanco of Indian blood, coutd not cast his ballot, for the renyen, puro and simple, that he was not uuder the Governmental authority or jurisdic: tion. Indeed, # test case was had in Orexon In Novembor, 1871, {f tiny momory serves mo right, which resulted disnstrously to an Indinn on this © same —_prinalple, tho turaing-polnt io this Crow-Dog oase, This man wenttotho potls to deposit his ballot, which was oballonged. « He appealed ton Clreuit Court in Oregon for redress. Ho teatitied that ho was nine-sixtecntha Indian and soven- sixtecnths white, The cuurt bald, that on the ainple prinelple of addition and subtraction, he was an Indinn, and, being bora auch, hu was NOT AMENALLE TO THE \LAWS OF THE ‘ * UNITED STATES, nor under the govermontal jurisdiction. Not being under Its jurisdiction, be could not bo punished for critnes committed against ono of la race; Nor, on the sume principle, could ho vote, It was inalatud that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments aleo yave 9 bin the right of vitizenslip, on the ground that they ap- ply to Indians bora in United States territory, Art. XY, givesthe right of sufraye to citizens of the United States a8 dofined by Art. XIV. irrespeotive of race, color, or previous condl- ton. An Inulin, therefore, would bo entitled to suffrage, since to oxclude him on the ground of betng un Indlan would be to oxcludo bim be- cause of tisrace. ; Howover, n treaty enters largely into tho Crow-Dog case. By tho trouty of 18/9 with tho Sloax Nutlon, it was agreed that, if uny bad men came ainong them, and committed any wroug upon any person, white, black, or red, they would doliver up the wrong-door to ba tried and punished according to the jaws of the United States. Ina subsequent ono of the many: treatius with tho Sioux, rypeoveit Fob. 2h, 1877, It ‘was expressly provided Quit the provisiong of the treaty I have montioned above, vxcept cer- tnin, unimportant moditicntions, should con+ tinuo in full force, and that tha Indians thom- selves “SMALL BE BUDJECE TO THM LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES,” ‘This treaty contained nothing Mmiting it to tho rightof protection directly. It ia only by Jmplication, and by n certain rule of coustruu: ton, that the Sioux Indians, under the lutor provison, could be refused any other right of eltizenship they night dumand—baving alrendy aced themselves under tha authority of tho ja ment, and Congrosa having wecepted thom a8 amenable to ita Jawa. Tho United States Distrivt Court deolsion 1 have montioned makes it a plum, straight, ‘square-tocd” issue, t. where un Indian does not hold himself amenublo to tho laws of the United States, he caunot exercise the priy- Hleye or right of aulfrage, That doalsiva stands upon the text-Loolts, #0 far as T can learn, an exposition of the intent of Coniross, until the presunt couse. tere Judge Mooily decides that the Bioux Indlaus aro under tho authority of United States lawa, On tho sane Foasonlny. ue put put forth tn Oregon, they may demand the right to vote. ‘There Ja nothing in the phrase olugy of the treutles to prevent.4 Sioux bucle asking auffrayo, and, so far us t know, nothing to prevent the exorolse of that pawor.
