The Timm OAoi bM been removed from Oun by'a Building to the old Enquirer Offlce, on Ran dolph atroet. third door weet of the Poet Offlae Thi Ixnlon Tkmes *ays that Rus sia, Enfflaml and Italy arc for peace. We consider the New York Tribune the best edited paper in the United States. The fare between Washington and Jlaltimore, on the Baltimore and I’o tomac road, has been reduced to less than ouo cent per mile. The total of the sale of short liorn cattle at Chicago, the other day, amounted to $22,485, the average price being $582 per head. The health of Oen. Frank Blair continues to improve under the op eration of transfusion of blood. He now is able to go out riding. The process will be continued. Louisiana has quietly emancipated herself from the control of political vampires, and for the first time since the war the intelligence of that State has charge of its political destinies. The Secretary of the Treasury has ordered a searching investigation into the frauds of the custom house. "Lay on Mac Duff and damned be he who first cries, hold enough!” Oen. Braxton Braoo has accepted the position of chief engineer of the Gulf, Colorado and Sunta Fo Railway, for which ground was broken on Muy Ist at Galveston. Oliver Charllck died worth *3,000,- 000. Thirty years ago ho was a poor man.— Exchange. And thirty years lienee also, most probably. Prof. Miller and H. Gilpin were the contestants yesterday in a walking match of 40 miles, at Platt’s Hall. Related to John Gilpin? Eh? ThE Sioux delegation of Indians, hcoiled by Spotted Tail and Red Cloud, have arrived in Washington, in order to negotiate for the salo of the Black Hills. Lo! the poor In dian! It is a black looking business to us. On the 19th Inst., one-eighth of a million dollars in value wus seized by the Government, principally consist ing of Chicago whiskey. The tele gram pathetically adds, “two oxen and a wagon wero seized in Tennes see.” Poor Tennessee! Michigan keeps her State Prison convicts at the rate of 121 c. a day for rations. That Is four cents per meal. We don’t suppose this affords fare, however, equal to u first-class hotel. Four cents n meal Is certainly not extravagant. • The Alleghany fPn.) Mail invites Gen. Montgomery C. Moigs, Quarter master-General United States Armies, to resign. It claims that, though an honest and upright man, Gen. Meigs has outlived his usefulness and should bo retired, and a younger man put in his place. Secretary Fish has written another letter to Governor Smith, in which he states Chat by accident the wrong form of oath was sent to Commis sioner Hillyer, and enclosing the modified oath. Wo learn that Major Hillyer has taken this last oath, and Is now Centennial Commissioner. The telegraph announces the death of the well-known negro speculator on Wall Street, Joromiah Hamilton, who died in New York of pneumonia. He was the richest black man in the United States, his property being es timated at two million dollars. He started In life as a slave in the West Indies. * Among tho many offerings at the Mecklenburg Centennial, none were more appropriate and beautiful than a wreath from Mt. Vernon—the gift of tho Vice Regent of tho Mt. Vernon (Ladies’ Association for North Caro lina. The evergreens in tho wreath were cut from trees that Washington planted more than a hundred years ago, and the ivy came from his tomb. An exchange says: David A. Wells calls our greenback currency irre deemable. Yes; it is irredeemable in the same sense that gold is. They are both legal tenders for debts. The greenback passes as money. Gold does not; for twolvo years in tho Unitod States it has been nothing but a commodity. Madame Histori.— ln the long roll of great actresses who have illustra ted the most brilliant unnnls of the stage, there are no names which will descend to posterity with a brighter glory than those of Sarah Siddons and Adelaide Ristori. They are the Roscius and Garrick of thoir sex, and It would be difficult even for the im nginatiou to paint more force, more passion, more dream, than that of the great Italian representative of the noblest days of tho English aetress. The New York Legislature has passed a bill which ought to be copied lu every State in tho Union. It declares that fire escapes must be provided on every building of more than two stories in height, whether occupied as a tenement house, hotel, factory, concert hall or other like purpose. In case tho owner, author ities or officials having charge of the buildings fail to erect such flro es cape, after ten days notice to provide the same, the superintendent of buil dings or chief of flro department may provide the same at the expense of the owner Uktl. While thinking of the numerous llbol suits which havo recently afflict ed the public with their harrowing details- and one of which has cost Storey, the Chicago odltor, $25,000 the thought will thrust itself upon us, why are lawyers not equally respon sible ? The Beecher triul ranks as a model of legal skill and courteous forbearance; yet Whitelaw Reid was correct, wo think, in stigmatizing Judge Fullerton’s cross-examination of a lady witnesses “blackguardism.” While wo believe editors ought to be held strictly accountable for libellous articles, wo think also that lawyers often have too much license, and, under cover of law, indulge in insult ing, “brow-boating” Intimations. A witness should havo the same protec tion that he or she Is accorded out side tho court-room. The tactics too commonly adopted, of reflecting un necessarily upon the character of a witness, should have its well defined limit. A lawyer is not a superior being; he is essentially “one of us”; and being a lawyer does not authorize such remarks as Judge Fullerton in dulged in. We never could under stand why such inordinate deference is paid to lawyers merely bocause they are lawyers; and when a lawyer forgets tho respect duo to himself and his learned profession in so far as to Insult a witness, wo do not think it should be tamely submitted to. From Cuba. A Havana letter says : Accounts from Valmaseda’s headquarters are ineuger, but It. is known that the army is taking up summer quarters. Gen. Ampudia, in a reconnoissance along tho rebel lines, near the Nujaza Mountains, killed twenty insurgents. Tho financial condition of the Gov ernment is improving. The course pursued by Acting Captain General C'arbo and Intendente Vega has re sulted in an increase of the receipts of revenue; so that there has been sufficient money in the treasury to pay the arrears of the troops and the running expenses. The Government has, also, been enabled to return $500,000 of the $2,000,000 recently bor rowed of tho Spanish Bank, The Governor of Missouri has is sued a proclamation calling on the people of tho State to observe Thurs day, June 3, as a day of humiliation, fasting and prayer. Information comes to him from all sources that the State is threatened with a grass hopper pestilence, to be followed by failure of the crops, great distress and possible famine. Nothing but tho in terposition of Providence can save them from the pest, and the Governor recommends that the supplications of the people be raised for Divine relief and protection. Reports from Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota, Michigan and Nebraska show an alarming state of things with regard to grasshoppers. Advices from Wiunipeg, Manitoba, state that myriads of grasshoppers are hutching out. And from Missouri comes this re port: “In addition to grasshoppers, as if one curse wore not enough to inflict upon our people, the chinch bug swarms in many neighborhoods and lends its effectual aid as tho foe of vegetation. Families are already beginning to move out, und doubtless thousands will follow', making haste to escape what is regarded as an inev itable calamity.” —■ ♦ , With regard to the proposed treaty with the Sioux with a view to buying their title to tho Black Hills, tho Cin cinnati Enquirer says tho treaty of 1808 expressly prohibits such u bar gain as we are told these chiefs pro pose to make. The language of the convention upon this subject is so explicit that it cannot admit of more than one construction. It is as fol lows : "Aiiticek XII. No treaty for the cession of any portion or part of the reservation herein described, which may be held in common, shall be of any validity or force as against the said Indians, unless executed and signed by at least three-fourths of all the male Indians occupying or inter ested in the same; and no cession by tho tribe shall bo understood or con strued in such manner as to deprive, without, his consent, any individual member of the tribe of his rights to any tract, of land selected by him as provided in artielo six of the treaty.” Concerning Indian agents the New York Herald says: There are certain general facts about the Indian question that, no one will dispute. These agents have for years and years made vast sums of money. The Indians under their care have either been exterminated or destroyed by disease or forced into wars which ended in their massacre. Steadily from year to year our In dian system has driven the red man West and has almost obliterated the ancient tribes, and has been an ad vantage to no one except tho Indian agents. The only way these agents could make money is by robbing the Indians and cheating the govern ment. “The widow of ex-President Lin coln has been adjudged insane by a Chicago court of Inquiry.” Tho trouble was she had $75,000, which her dutiful son, Bob, did not think she could take care of as well as he could. At least, avo infer as much from the newspaper reports. But these papers, , exaggerate so! A Change of Policy.—No careful observer of current events can iiave failed to notice the change in the tone and purpose of the Administration within tho last year. Whether that chango is the result of more enlight ened conviction or of clearer views of policy, can not as vet be determined. [Exchange. Oh, yes! This is the off-year in politics. Victor Hugo has enjoyed literary celebrity for thirty years, and has realized'by his pen upwards of $600,- 000. The “Hunchback of Notre Dame,” printed before he was thirty, yielded him 400,000 francs, and “Les Mlserables” issued thirty years later, 500,000 francs. Bfjst root sugar can be made in Cal ifornia at seven cents a pound, In cluding every expense. The Ilrntli or Ormral Polk. Sherman kept pushing ids way down toward Atiuntu. It was in this campaign that the rebel General Leonidas Polk, who had been a Bish op of the Southern Episcopal Church, lost his life. Tho story of his death is one of the dramatic incidents of the war, reminding us of the death of the famous French General, Moreau, who was killed by a shot from a bat tery which had been llrefl by tho spe cial order of Napoleon. On Juno 14, General Sherman, in conversation with General Howard, observed, at the distance of 800 yards, a group of Confederate officers, evidently watch ing the Federal troous through glass es. Sherman called General How ard’s attention to this group and qr (iered him to compel it to keep be hind its cover. Howard answered that his orders from General Thomas were to spare artillery ammunition. “That was right according to the general policy,” says Sherman. “I explained to him that we must keep up the morale of tho bold offensive; that he must use his artillery to force the enemy to remain on the. timid defensive, and ordered him to cause a battery close by to fire three vol leys.” One of these volleys killed General Polk. General Johnston afterward explained to General Sher man the exact manner of General Polk’s death. He had ridden to Pine Mountain, accompanied by Generals Hardee and Polk. He noticed the preparation at Sherman’s buttery to lire and caused tho soldiers to scatter. "They did so,” says Johnston, “and he likewise hurried behind the para pet, from which he had an equally j good view of tlie position, but Gen. Polk, who was dignified and corpu lent, walked slowly, not wishing to appear too hurried or cautious in the presence of the men, and was struck across the breast by an unexploded shell, which killed him instantly.” “It lius been charged,” says Sher man, “that I fired tho shot which killed General Polk, and that I knew it was directed against that General. The fact is, that at that distance, we could not even tell that the group were officers at all. I was on horse back a couple of hundred yards off before my orders to fire were execu ted. and had no idea that our shot hail taken effect.—From Sherman’s Memoirs. The writer saw tho shot wliieh killed the Confederate Leonidas. A sadder but a grander looking scene of this nature was perhaps never wit nessed than that of the old hero clad in his General's uniform and lying in a store in Marietta, a short time afterwards. One instinctively felt, here is a Bishop who from patriotic impulses took the lower rank of General; here is a General who was ever the Prince-Bishop. Tho old hero looked as calm and unruffled as if asleep. No scene during all the war impressed us like this one. Gen. Polk dead was grander looking than Gen. Polk living. —~. ♦ . .. The Black HIU. The region known as the “Black Hills,” lying west of the great plains, extending from the Missouri river, and north of tho Union Pacific Rail road, is a magnificent country for the ranchman who is willing to become a permanent citizen, and spend his life in pastoral pursuits. Composed of mountain ranges, clothed with mag nificent forests from the color of which the country derives its name, divided by numerous valleys and table lands, watered by mountain streams, and covered with the iqpst nutritious na tive grasses, the scenery is grand be yond description. And as these grass es retain their nutriment the year round, tho country may be regarded as a paradise for herdsmen. The hcaithfulness of the climate is equal to that of any part of the earth’s sur face. The soil also produces excel lent crops of cereals (except Indian corn,i as well as the more hardy fruits and garden vegetables. And, al though the temperature is severe dur ing the winter mouths, yet the moun tain ranges and perennial forests, furnish sufficient shelter from the winter storms fo enable herds of cat tle to live in the open air during the worst weather. In view of these facts which are well established by the testimony of hun ters and ranchmen, who have spent many years in these localities, it can not be doubted that this section of the Rocky Mountains, like portions of Montana, Dakota, and Colorado, will, in time, furnish magnificent homes for millions of Intelligent and hardy citizens of the great Republic. But just so far forth as it is found to be desirable for agricultural and pas toral purposes, it will prove to be worthless for theoperations of minors of the precious metals. It is also worthy of observation that the Placer gold mines of Monta na and Colorado, are found in the gulches in the vicinity of the highest mountain ranges; and that the auri ferous and argentiferous rocks, whether quartz or granite, arc found in these Territories above the “tim ber range;’’ which, in Southern Col orado, is about twelve thousand live hundred feet above the level of the sea, being gradually depressed as you proceed northward ; and that the “Black Hills,” so-called, north of Cheyenue, in Wyoming Territory, and south of Montana, do not reach the altitude of what is known in that country as tho “timber line,” above which wood ceases to grow, and where gold and silver bearing rocks may bo expected, judged in the light of former observations and exper ience. In harmony with these suggestions, it should bo borne in mind, that all tho gold and silver mines heretofore discovered in Wyoming, are located west of tho Black Hills, where the mountain ranges are more elevated. The foregoing statement of facts are the results cf the personal obser vations of the writer of this article, during several months spent last summer in these Territories, support ed by conversations with hundreds of the oldest inhabitants, including mi ners, ranchmen, hunters, Govern ment surveyors and artnv officers. General Cuetar’s report of the discov ery of rich gold deposits lastsnmmer, in tho Black Hills, stands alone in antagonism with the foregoing facts and conclusions. Washington Chron icle. Prof. Ranch, of Lexington. Ky., writes to a local paper to say: “In many parts of the South there arc joint decorations of Federal and Con federate graves, and at Northern ar my reunions the hand of fellowship is extended to former ‘rebels.' We* believe that good people of all politi cal opinions would be pleasd to see these examples imitated.” Now, will the Washington Chronicle please style this “Ranek (rank) trea H. D.

Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: Ho well pleased am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes tify to the superior merit of your unequaled preparation for Neuralgia. I shall esteem rny self happy should even one of that worst of all classes of sufferer* be led through me to take the Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural gic torture, without being able to find any relief except from your preparation. She was relieved by the second dose a p* r directions, and has not hod a return of it for two months. To some I may seem strangely sanguine about your medi cine. but I have a right to be so. It is not rea sonable to suppose this malignant malady would have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for sustaining itself, and that too in a minute, and the very minute your medicine was taken. If so, it Is a moat remarkable, simple coincidence, and I prefer giving the credit in your favor of the best testimony man can ever have—experience. Vary truly yours, JAMES T TOSH. Columbus, January 18, 1875. Mr.Jordan: —l take great pleasure In recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, lias produced a most wonderful relief in one oj the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever ha* had. bhe has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used all the usual remedies with little suc cess. I can with much confidence imps for a per manent cure. It is only two days since we began the use of it. and it is apparently of permanent benefit. Ymr4, with respect, MRS. L. I.
