In response to the question whether there seems to be a probability that the Indian troubles may not extend into Arizona and Sonora and finally precipitate a conflict with eur Mexican neighbors, General Fremont is reported as say- ing: “T have enly recently addressed a {otter to the secretary ot the interior on the subjoct, and, therefore, have some hesitation in talking about it. The whole country of Arizona and surrounding territory of southwestern Colorado, New Mexico, Senora and Chihuahua is mountainous and very favorable to Indian warfare, as the experience of the last three years with small bands shows. If tne fighting should at any time assume larger pro- portions it would require a dispro- portionately large force, and time, and loss of valuable life to end it, be- sides the backset to the prosperity of the territories and North Mexico. As the irreconcilable Indians ocoupy the territory of both ropublics, and both are equal- ly interested in the sub- jet, T have suggested to the secretary of the interior the expediency of an arrangement with the Mexican gov- ernment by which the peninsula of Lower California might be used as a reservation into which to gather all the Apache tribes. The penincula is 3ist day of August, A, D., 1881, at 2 o'clock p. m., for the transaction of such business as may properly come before the Committee. James W, Dawes, Chairman, CRETE, August 12, 1881, V‘Ur to 8 o'clock this morning the president’s condition had undergone but a slight change. The fact that life has been been sustained by the injection of strong stimu- shows has reached the last stage of exhaustion. ‘That death will ensue before Monday is now regarded as almost certain. If o weekly relapse that has ocourred regularly every Saturday since the fa- 4al shooting, takes place to-day, it is extremely doubtful whether the pres- ident can survive the day. lants that he Tae Infer-Ocean wash-stand-man was among the bright journalists taken 0 by the bogus Hartmann. SECRRTARY BLAINE'S dispatches are a good deal more trustworthy than the bulletins sent out by the doctors. Warn the president reached the point of death the doctors talked about removing him to more healthy quarters. Ix Ohio the prohibitionists are do- ing their level bost to defeat the re- publican ticket and the democrats are in actfve collusion with the prohibi- tionists. Ler the council extend the fire limits, purchase an additional supply of hose and relocate the fire steamors ‘where they are most needed, and we shall soon have fewer tinder boxes and better fire protection. Iv this cruel war between the sa- loon keepers and temperance alliance continues much longer the entire time -of our district court will be taken up in trying cases under the Slocumb law. This will be delightful business for the lawyers. Wirn the advent of waterworks onr fire insurance rates must go down. Omaha will soon afford the best fire xisks in the west—wide etreets, sohd ‘business blocks, ample water supply and a well organized fire department —=0 the fire rates must go down. Tuerk will be no trouble to find a Jury to hang Guiteau, but it will be 700 miles long, the gulf on one side and the ocean on the other, with a breadth at its mnorthern end on our line of only about 150 miles. Alter- nating posts on either side of this line by the respective vernments would effectually r the Indians from all egress, and within these limits they il b6 ensily controlled and taught to work and made - self-supporting, - There were missions on its Pacific Coast, and in the early history of that part of the continent it is recorded that Catholic missionaries who crossed the culf found the gulf shore well populated with 1Indians, who raised grain and different fruits,” General Fremont is perhaps as coms petent authority on the Indian prob- lem in New Mexico and Arizona as any other man in this country, but the question naturally arises, why is he away from his post of duty as gov- ernor of Arizona while drawing pay for that service, particularly at this critical juncture when his presence is most needed? IN no section of the country will the death of President Garfield be more seriously deplored than in the south. The southern people, with- out regard to class distinction, have watched the president’s condition with painful anxiety. - President Gur- field has enjoyed their confidence and respect in an eminent degree. The business people regarded him asa safe, fair man, under whose adminis. tration the country would have pros- pered and thl lingering animosities between theno¥thand south would have bea1 buried, This view is sustained by the tone of the press throughout the south, as also by the resolutions of sympathy adopted at conventions and public meetings in almost every state. Even in Texas, the refusal ot the governor to indorse the proposi- tion of Governor Foster for a day of national thanksgiving in the event of the president's recovery, met with a perfect storm of indignant repudiation from men in all stations of life. All this speaks well for the returu- ing pariotism of the south, and will, in all probability go far toward cre- ating a more fgutcrnul fooling between the two sections. Tuere is no doubt that there has been a good deal of humbug and fraud connected with the Eads jetty job at the mouth of the Mississippi. The Cinginnati Commercial has con- stantly and persistently exposed and denounced this imposture, Threats of prosecution for livel are met by the Commercial in the tollowing fashion; The professional jetty men in New almost impossible to find twelve men who havn't already made up their aninds before a single witness is heard that the cowardly assassin should have his neck broke by the halter, — o Uxper the registration law it is the duty of registrars in this city to hold thoir first session during the first week of Beptember.

We commend this idea, If they bring suit they will onable us to prove some things legally that the country should know, The government 1s paying for a channel of thirty feet in South Pass, The water is not there.

In Novada the state jtax is ninety cents on $100. This is the largest stato taxation in the Union, and yet it fails to enable the state authorities to meet current expenses, which are over 830,000 o month. The funded debt is $567,017, on which interest is paid at the rate of nine and a half per cent a year, OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. The result of the French elections is a decided viotory for the republi- This was expected. The past elections of the councilors general showed that the republican gains would be great. The withdrawal of Rouher showed that the Bonapartists gave up hope, while, as already be- fore mentioned, the conseryatives were hopeless at the outset. Thus far, all of the expected results have come forth The Bonapartists have lost even more than was expected. Neither have the socialists and revo- lutionaries won their boasted victo- ries. In many arrondissements the opposition candidates only served to increase the republican votes. The result isa triumph for the republicans, The gain has been largely that of the moderate republicans and of the re- publican union. Their gains are made in the country and show how careful the French peasant is in his exarcise of the electoral power. He is conservative and at the same time liberal. The general result is favora- ble to M. Gambetta, in spite of the apparent check which he received in Paris. This is the essential point in the election. Tt proves that he is re- garded with favor, but not with per- fect confidence, which the mass of rural Frenchmen do not give toa man until he has been tried long and severely. M. Gambetta can afford fo wait. As for the Paris elections, in them is found the least hopeful sign. Elsewhere the gain has been for true republicanism In Paris it has been for the radical element, and out of the power of Parisian radicals disturb- ances have always grown. But they are not likely to act with any greater effect than that of mere obstruction- ists. cans, The success of the French in Africa is theresult « fa course of unscrupulous diplomacy, which is said to have had its beginning as far back as the ces- sion of Alsace and Loraine in 1871. The curious part ofsthe proceeding is that all the powers seem to have been perfectly unconcerned while the French government were filching from the porte his richest tributary prov- ince. The porte appealed to England as it had once before, but this time there was mno response. British statesmen discussed the situation, but thero the matter ended, and the French were allowed to bring their troops within ten miles of Tunis and bully the bey into making the treaty of May 18th, which places him under French rule. This result was brought about by working on the fears of the bey, and by positive threats of depo- sition should, he refuse to accede to the harsh terms, It is stated on good authority that he was givon only a few hours to make a decision, and that the business nature of the traus- action was exnforced by the military menace. All this was in direct con- tradiction of the usages bstween na- tions, and was a high-handed outrage The real purpose of the French was thinly veiled under the plea that bor- dor raids of the Kroumirs must be suppressed. This pretense was sed- ulously kept up by ¢he French chawm- bers, and was only abandoued when tho game was secure. The Chili-Pernvian war has vir- tually ceased, though it has by no means arrived as yot at a satisfactory conclision. Non-commissioned officers in the French army have heretofore been virtually prohibited from entering into wedlock, but Gen. Farre, on the ground that recent leguslation opens a real career to such officers, has issued a circular abolishing the prohibition. Permission to marry is given to offi- dredging. Awy of competent persons re- cently sounded the channel through Suud‘\’ Pass, and found twenty-five fect of water--the channel having that depth being in some places so narrow that ships could not pass in it without one or both grounding, — 'k rose-colored bulletins sent out by the doctors are now explained by Murat Halstead, who sustains inti- mate relations with the family of the president. In Thursday’s issue of the Commercial Mr, Halstead 8, concerning the deception practiced by the doctors: “*It should be remembered that the bulletins have often, if not uniformly, been propared rather for the presi- dent himself than for the public The doctors have had to deal with a patient of extraordinary brain power, of clear and penetrating intelligence, and of singularly sympathotic and sensitive nature, Very early iu the case the president noticed the preparation of bulletins, Pprotested against it as unuescssary, and cers who have more than five years’ engagements, and whose prospective wives have at least 5,000 francs, or an income of 260 francs a year, Such wives, however, i the interest of dis- cipline, are forbidden to open cafes or Dilliard rooms, The recent improvements in the or- ganization of the Russian army haye extended to the food as well as the arms and discipline of its soldiers, and the days rations of a Russian pri- vate of 1881, rough as it is, would have been thought absolute luxury by his half-starved predecossor of the last generation, The farinaceous ra- tion in time of war is a little over two pounds of hard black biscuit per day; in peace, it is the same amount of wheat or barley flour and buckwheat gruel, the latter being much esteemed by the Russian peasantry. Four days in the week (the other three being fasts by the rules of the Greek church) each man receives a half pound of meat per day, exclusive of bone, with #0 independent of supplies as the or- dinary Russian. The military annals of the Circassian war preserved the fame of a regiment which fasted for three days and fought a battle on the fourth. A still more curious instance oceurred Suvoroff's Swiss | campaign in 1799, When the half- starved Russians poured into tle vil- lage of Andcrmatt, of whose famous cheesc theghad heard so many stories, their first proceeding was to devour the contents of a large store filled with what they supposed to be the dainty in question, and then, falling upon the French, they beat them back across the Reuss. When Sovaroff, after the battle, praised the valor of his men, one of them modestly at- tributed it to the “good cheese” which they had caten, and triumphantly displayed the half-gnawed remnant of a bar of yellow soap. during Statistics of the Jewish race, which have been prepared in Germany, place the total number of Jews now living in the world at only 6,139,662, which 18 considerably less than twice the population of the largest city in Eu- rope. OF these 6,189,600 Jews, more than five-sixths, 5,225,966, live in Europe alone; 502,066 live in Africa; 182,847 in Asia; 20,000 in Australia, and 807,802 in America. America thus ranks third in the number of her Jews, but both she and Africa, which ranks second, are a long dis- tance behind Europe. In fact, accord- ing to these figures, there are are more Jews in Roumania than in the whole of America, and nearly as many as there are in Africa. They number in Roumania 400,000, and comprise 7.44 per cent. of the population, which is the largest percentage re- ported for any state. European Rus- sia is next, with 2,662,694, or 3.7 per cent,, and Germany next, with 520,576, or 1.22 per cent. Great Britain #nd Ireland have only 68,300, or 0.20 per cent., and last on the list is Norway, with 34, which shows a percentage that secures Norway well enough against serious trouble from anti-Jewish agitation. In forty years England and Wales have gained above 10,000,000 of inhabitants, while Ireland has lost 3,000,000. Tn density of population of England and Wales is about 440 persons to the square mile, which is only thirty less than Belgium, the most densely populated country of Europe. In Englandalone the densi- ty at the close of the reign ot Queen Elizabeth was 83 to the square mile, now it 18 483. In density the three kingdoms seem to huve increased in'a decade from 2680290, Thedecrease in Ireland shows the poverty of that part of the kingdom as compared with the remainder, and proves that there is lomothw radicglly wrong both in its social’ and political well-being, While the entire kingdom. exhibits a great progress in material re- sources, anincrease of wealth, and a gradual advancement in the aggregate prosperity, Ireland exhibits want, circumscribement of occupation and, most anomalous state of things as re- spects its distribution, The Jewish persecutions in Ger- many and Russin continue ‘It sounds,” says the Evening Post, “hke reading a page from mediweval history to note the marching ot #<ven hun- dred rioters through the streets of Stetlin crying deathto the Jews.” In Russia the government is investigat- ing the atrocities committed in May at Kieff and Eiizabethgrad, and the imperial official suggests that there are too many Jews engaged in trade in the villages thereabouts, and orders an “‘adjustment”—which implies the expatriation of thousands more of the unhappy people whose thrift and tem- temperance have made them formida- ble rivals in trade. Naturally, intelligent Israelites throughout the world are considering the remedy for this anti-Semitic up- rising, So far as Germany is con- cernod the question is essentially political and temporary. In Russia the stuation is intolerable. The endurance of the Russian Jews is marvellous, They are strangely pa- triotic considering that they live in a land which denies them the commonest rights of man. Their co-religionists of western Europe and the United States lubor under serious difficulties in giving assistance to the Russian Jows. Pecuniary aid to save the starving is of course proffered with alacrity. But the Jews in Southern Russia are not paupers; many of them had obtained wealth, and even position so far as the restrictive laws of Russia have permitted. One well known bookseller of Elizabethgrad who visited New York two years ago was then worth two thousand rubies; he lost it all during the May rots, The leading physician and lawyer of Kieff are Jews, and there are many men of culture and gven distinguished scientific attainments among the ex- iles. The ‘‘Alliance Israelite Universelle” has undertaken, as a partial measure of relief, to provide for the emigra- tion of the younger and more vigor- ous of the Jews of the South Russian towns —some to the interior of Rus- sia, where local regulations are more if not an actual decrease in wealth, a | SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1881, liberal, some to America. As to the latter branch of the “‘Alliance” work, the co-operation of American Israel- ites is pledged, and committees are now forming in several cities to pro- vide for the trsnsportation and tem- porary support of the emigrants, These emigrants are exiles because The He- brews of Russia are entitled to our aympathy as thoroughly as were the Balgarian Christians or the Cretans, We understanc that the Hebrew or- ganizations in the United States pro- pose to establish the exiles mainly in agricultural scctions and will provide employment for the mechanics, arti- sans and laborers. They will not be formed into colonies, but, it is hoped by those who have their interests in hand, will mergo in the body of American citizens more rapidly and completely than is characteristic of the ordinary immigrant. of their race and religion. England is not above learning les- sons from the United States. The success of this country in refunding the bonded debt has directed the at- tention of Mr., Gladstone to the same subject, and he has prepared a scheme which is thus described by the Pall Mall Gazette: ‘‘Terminable annuities amounting to £3,617,000, and expir- ing in 1885, are at present payable to the national debt commissioners. For £2,000,000 of these annuities having only four years more to run the chancellor of the exchequer proposes to substitute an annuity of nearly £460,000, which will continue to be payable for twenty-five years. By this transaction the commissioners will receive pecuniary equivalent for the annuities they now hold, and by dressing of the hair over the forshead is left to the taste of the wearer, as are also the equally fashionable modes of arrang- ine the small coils of hair in theb ck, a la Freque, & la Japanese, or a laBuenhardt.
