anything cITcctuiil he was met.with such a prcssuio from tho highestsouiee that he immediately weakened,nnd Dually made an unconditional stu len-der, leaving I'urmwo.N hi full possession ofhis spoils.

Some of Mr. Jr.wr.u.'n friend, wlillothat he ha failed to accomplish

what wa expected after all hi lino prom-

ise, npologlze fo r 111 in on the ground that,he has been deceived by thosoiiround him.These friend claim, however, that he I

really stilvlng In earnest to abolish thosystem of straw bills nnd straw contract. Ifthat 1 really so, he slill has an excellent

to give evidence of hlsshieeilty.Tin: Sir long ago gave him notice thatwhen Otr.swr.t.t. left the department somefifty route. In tho Teiritories and North-western Hlate were lu the hand of tntweont tuetor through contractu which tookeffect July 1, IS7I. These straw contract-ors wcro the agents of King contractors,some of whose names we have given. Theyhad made contract and ptven straw bondsto enable them to hold tho routes for theiremployer, until such time as by purchase,Intimidation, or fraud, peixms who hadbid for the service In faith could boput one side, or persuaded to execute pow-

er of attorney to enable the Hlnp to con-

trol all the bids put ill.The job wa woiked Jiut as we pre-

dicted. Tho straw contractors, withthe slock, drivers andoRentsof their em-

ployers, commenced to do the service forthe nominal rate at which they had con-

tracted. Tho other bidders were then ap-

proached and thu best posslblo termsmade with them, they being powerless tobreak the combination against them.Then the straw contractor threw up theircontracts, and temporary arrangementswere made with their omployer by whichthe malls were carried by the satno stages,horses, and drivers the straw contractorshad been using, until the King made termswith Ji: i:u.at the highest of the bids theycontrolled.

Now, It I n well cstihllMicd principle oflaw that n man t tuvountalile for the net.of hi agents. Section 3,'Xd oftheieviscdstatute of the United States provides:

There Is not the leat dlfllculty lu estab-lisliln- g

the connection of employer nndapeut in this Instance between the PostalItlnp and their ueeomplicw, the strawcontractors, through whose failure tocarry out their contracts tho Govern-ment has actually been defrauded ofthousands and thousands ot dollars.Having failed to convict Hinds fortransactions by which it is claimed byMr. Ji:u i.u. that not one dollar has beenlost, let him now present to n grand juryfor Indictment thu ease of the King ts

concerned lu this fraud, who arewell knowuto Mr. ,Ii:wnt.u aie in favor atthe White House, ami who own Senatorsand members of Congre. Let him putthe prosecution Into tlie hand of al

I'lKhnueosr, and a.t himwith the evidence whichhe will find readyat hand mi the I coords of tho I'ost OIHcc De-

part incut and can obtain from it- - ngetits,sin, I the country will then believe Unit theI'ostiuastir-llcneni- l is really in earliest inIds effurt for letiinchmeiit and ictotui.

Starve the lndiun Itinf.The Scciclaiy of the Interior, the

of Indian Atlaits, and their con-

federates of tlie Indian Hing, appear tohave taken alarm nt the n cent exposures,and ate now striving to nrret further In-

vestigation by a temporary expedient.Tlie Indian Comnilsiuiicrs whom Dix.suselected after tin old lioatd resigned lu abody on account of the montroti fraudswhich ho protected, havo asked the WarDepartment to detail cMcui to inspect thosupplies for cei tain tribes, at Kansas City,Cheyenne, and Sioux fit v. But this doesnot meet thu exigency nt all. Nothingthott of an examination of the supplieswhen delivered to thu Indians and uu ot

Hon of tho cattle which tlioy actuallyreceive, will satisfy the public. The tricksand knavery of agents, contractors, andollli iids, all acting together In collusion,have i. omo well understood.

A huge portion of the plunder from thissource is obtained by tho substitution ofinferior and short supplies for those whichhave passed inspection, between the pointsof Until shipment and thu delivery to thuIndians. Sometime (hcsiihstitullou takesplaeu at the very ngi ney where tho poodsare gathered for thu tit lie, so as to divertsuspicion and tliwiitt inquiry.

All contldenre In an honest administra-tion of Indian affairs has been withdrawnfrom tlio Interior Department. Aboutthtec millions u yiur are estimated to havebeen stolen and squandered since Di:i.anonnd In ussoclatos havo run thu concern,lu Ihoycius they havo drawn from theTrcnsuiy thirty-tw- o millions for a servicewhich, for tho sumo length of lime underLincoln, cost only h.xt. cii million, withone-fourt- h mme Indian to feed than nowexist within tlie United State.

Tlds thieving system is mndo moreodious, because it has been carried on un-

der tlie hypocritical pretence of Christian-izing tlie Indians, mid in tho abused unuioof a peace policy. Tho practical effect ofthis scandalou treatment has been to cou-tlri- u

tlie ted man in distrust of Iho white,to miiko him look witli disfavor upon pro-

fessions cif icligiou. mid Instead of makinghim a friend, to piovoke his bitter enmity.

No complete remedy for tills state ofthings can ho expected while Chant I

l'lesldenl. Tlie King rule at the WhiteHoii'c. That was plainly visible whenltmi Ciirit, Hi'OTii:i) Tail, and oilierehiel, aki d to ptesellt their grievanceto tlie President, after having been Uivlt.nlto u by hi Kiipgetion. Th"ywoio forbidden to speak on tho sithJicLnnd were even with harhpenalties unless they consented lo abandontheir homes to an oigainzud gang of spec-

ulators.It is practicable, however, for Congress

to oontiol the auioiiut mid thu manner oftin se expenditure. Thelleuseof Itoprc-Hi'titatlv-

in till respect holds tho koy of'dtoiUiou, An amendment to the

Ithe Appropriation bill, requiring, all sumsl fur s.ioplics to l)c cxpuidi il by offi

cers of the regular army, and contracts tobe made n they are for the troop, willnot only stop these disgraceful abuse, butbreak up the Indian King.

Other reform can only come with n

change of Administration lu 1HT7, but thisone may be achieved next winter In spltoor the power represented In Congre. bythese plunderer. Tho Senate will or

course relt tiny change like Hint sug-

gested. Hut If tho House will Insist uponupright dealing with the Indians, pub-

llo opinion will soon set tho mntterlight and make tho Senate recede from afalse position.

It appears that the Itlug organ at llnr-risbu- rg

ha managed, with tho ordinaryingenuity oT Its vocation, to do Mr.

Tr.Mi'Li: a very serious. In-

jury, by coming apparently to his defence!,ll announced, a if by authority, that Mr.Tr.Mfi.t: had no Intention of letting ilny-llp- ht

through the Slate Treasury until lif-

ter the Committee of tho Legislature lmdmade Us repent, when, if the report shouldnot prove satisfactory, ho would tako Ihomatter in hand. As tho report, whateverIt may be, will certainly not bo made untilthe Legislature assemble next winter, Itseemed clear that the people were to hokept In Igiioranco ot the condition of thoTreasury, not only until after the electionsweio over, but until after tho new (iov-- ci

nor and Treasurer should bo Installed,which, in the King's scheme, meant for-

ever.Hut Mr. Tkmmx was not Inclined to rest

under this atrocious Imputation, and hasspoken for himself lu nn interview with nicporlerof the Kcadlug Eagle. Ho sav--s

that he is not going to wait until nextwinter, as the orpin reported, but willbegin to Investigate on his own accountlomo time in September, and hopes soonthereafter to be able to tell the people or

the State where their money is Invested.Hut I not even September a very lato

ported to sot tor this work T

The public would llko to know somethingabout it betore the Erie Convention, whichmeets on the 8th of that month. As Mr.Tkmplf. unequivocally declares that thepublic Interest ts the first consideration,unit that he will screen no one, whether amember of his portv or not, It ts not im-

probable that his Ilual exposition will boos InterestitiR to the Democrat iv to theKcpuhlican. Therefore, ir he is honest inhi intention, ns we are bound to presumehim to be, he will hardly ait until afterthe Comciition to ascertain whether or nothe Treasury has been robbed.

Keceiit proceeding in (he English Courtof Clmtirery, beforo Sir It.Mai.ins, havo created as much feeling In('nti.-ul.- i as tho development mado in tliollintim Mlno nff.ilr aroused In tho t'nltedState when the disreputable connection ofMinister ffiir..NCR with that concern wns firstmado puhllc. A Mr. l'aixcn, n promi-nent Canadian, owned sotno oil wells, and n

company was formed for tho purposo of liuvlngthem for tho sum of i),iioo, which was nfter-war- d

Increased to jCIUoVU). Tlio shares werefirst hawked about III tlio city of London,tint tho shrewd stock Jobbers ot that localityfilling to sec any money In tho scheme, tho rs

transferred their operations lo tho West1 :!!. where, having secured tlio aristocraticname of hir John lui.iivMi'i.i: Hay to placo ontliclr prospectus as Chairman and a director oftho company, tlio stock was eagerly taken.Having paid an lmmeiie sum for tho wells, Itwas next thought expedient to semi agents toC.uiada to Investlgato their Tabic, and when thoInvestigation nnd the report or tlio agents hadbeen mado the company suddenly collspsed,It was nttctwnrJ discovered that a check Tor

e,',(AlO, which had boon drawn by tho directorson account or the purchase money, had beensplit up Into smaller amounts, nud that amongthese a check rer 1,CM0 went to BlrJ.D. Hat,who, the next day, paid to the company precise-ly Hie same amount as the deposit duo from himnn nccount of u shares which stood In his nam.Thereupon the official liquidator of the com-

pany made au application to tho court for an

ordr to compel tho chairman to rerund thet.lU) which It was claimed he had received from

tho company. It was contended, on the otherhand, that In reality It was Mr. PmscE's moneythat wns paid to Sir JoilN.and that the companyhad nothlm? to do with the transaction; butthe couit decided that In rases of this kind Itwas bound not to be blinded by tlio semblanceof purity In a transaction wblch enabled a chair-

man and director of a company to erade theperformance of his dutle, and fir John was or-

dered to dlsgorir. This decision was virtuallyto the effect that Sir Jolts D. Hay, In permit-ting the agent of Piu.NCEto pay for tho shareswhich it was necessary for him to hold In ordjrto qualify hi in to act as a director, accepted abribe rrom tn vendor when he had duties toperform to tlio purchacrs, nnd as tho moneyoriginally came trom the funds ut the company.It must be returned to the shaicholdors.

A met horrible story has been going tliorounds of the rr-- ' nbotit n man being pur-

posely buried nbvo in New Urlcai.s, and a per-

son named JAMrsCiissoii was actually IndictedIn that city for the murder ot the man. Thewitnesses against him were all bucks, one ofwhom testified to hiving seen the suppoidcorpo while on Its way to the cemetery ralieIts aruis up out ot the ctftlu; another, an oldwoman, swore to having heard the dead mangroan; while a third, more positive than eitheruf the others, declared that tho dead nun notonly struggled to get out of the coflin. but aliobegged the driver ot the hospital cart not tobury him alive, upon which, he said, the latterput a baby's coffin upon the head of the unwilli-

ng, and sat down upon It. After allthis the corpse was finally buried in spite of itsprotests. I'ii.s.nuii, the driver, vi Imprisoned,and after l)lug In Jail two weeks was broughtbefore the Criminal Court, when It wa proved

Egyptian llialory Tniiubt by fttonnmenl.A scries of manual untitled, " Ancient

HItory from tho Moniitnent," Is now In ttiocourse of publication tn I,oiidon by the Boclety

for tho rromotlon of Christian Knowledge, theobject or widen Is to give the rcult or tlio de-

cipherment or r.ijp'l "l hieroglyphic, nnd Assy-

rian and Persian cuneiform Inscriptions. Wehavo before u tho volume on f.Vinl Jivm ficKuiIiVsf Iiiics lo . C. .'), by S. Illlllll, I.b.H.When It Is considered that the promoters ofChristian knowledgoat first denounced the new-

born "donees of A'syrlology nn l llgyntology athe offspring nf hcresv intent on subverting theauthority ut the Old Testament, It Is rathersurprising to sco theso vcrv persons undertak-ing to publish tho researches of their old ene-

mies, nnd proclaiming with them the resurrec-tion or empire. On tho one hntidtho tlcclplierorsor hieroglyphics and cuneiformswould seem tn havo established their studies ontho hasl of a dcmontr,ihle science ; wlillo on tlioother tho defenders or biblical truth have dis-

covered Hint the r.icts ot Ilgyptology nnd Assy-rlolo-

can no longer be denied, nnd do not ma-te- rl

illy asall the credibility or tho Scriptures.Nevertheless this nlllanco ot tlio students ofninnumcntnl nnd biblical record must bo re-

garded with somo caution, for It may happenthat the nrch!rologlst,out or deference to hi the-

ological friends, does not fully ncciunlnt us withall ho knows nnd believes. As n rule, It Is s.iterto hear tho statomonts or conflicting sciencesseparately thnn to rccflve only their Joint nar-

rative, In which nil oHonslvo matter has beenomitted or adjusted by mutual consent. Thu,for example, wo should llko to know about thechronological dlfllcultlcs encountered by bothparties In writing tho history of the ancient em-

pires contemporaneous with nnd preceding theevents recorded lu the Illblo. Instead of beingtold only that the first six Egyptian dynastiesmust be placed between nbotit 3,1100 II. C. and2,000 11. C, though former historians and ts

nsslgned them to times from one tothree thousand years earlier.

Kven In tlio recently published second editionof Hetirl-llrugsc- Hoy's llMolrt d'Eggpfc, whichts & very cautious and conserTatlve work, weare assured that "we need not scruple to cal-

culate the beginning of the first dynasty at t.vOO

11. C. and that of the seventh at 3,10) II. C,though we felt bound to maintain that Adamwas a historical person," Then, again, Dr. lllrchdoes not explain why he assigns to tho MiddleUmpire, extending from the seventh to the eigh-

teenth dynasty, a period ot only four hundredyears, while It has always been computed tohavo lasted three or four times longer. It Is

possible that he fell bound to uphold somoother dates of biblical chronology which con-

flict with tho testimony of the monuments;but he should have told his readers tils reasonfor compressing the aiithpilty of Egypt Into sosmall a space. The age subseipient to the sixteenth century' 1!.C. dns not admit of curtail-ment, as there Is too much corroborative evidencefor Its dotation, and Dr. Itirch wa alo nutwarranted In cutting off am thing subsequent tofk010-3,i- w: 1!. C, which date has been fullyottnbllsbed by Prof. DUmichen as that of thoninth yearuf the reign uf lllkherls, the sixthmini irch of th fourth dyn isty.

I)r Itirch Is right, no doubt, In confining him-

self to such matter as rati bo obtained from themonuments themselves. His book impressestbo reador with the Idea that he mut grope tilsway through a labvrtitth of atone tablets andstructure. Treatment ami stile aro dull andcold. There aro no speculations ot any sort.He opens the first chapter with the sentence:"Tho flrt monarch of the country was Mena. ora be Is called in Greek. Mones, nud Ins name,Hie same as that of the bull Mncvls, of Hellopo-lls- ,

apeara to mean the rami or stable." It doesnot como wlthlti bis province to consider for amoment that tho reader may ln(iilrr what pre-

ceded the first Egypt! in monarchy, or, lookingstill further back, who the Egyptians were, towhat raco they belonged, whence they came,buw they obtained possession uf the Valley ortho Nile, and how long they may havo beenscttlid In It before Mena ascended the throne.Ou these subjects Dr. lllrch offers only a fewremark In hi Introduction. "Trio raco ot menbv whom ths Valley of the Nile was tenantedwas comldercd in their legends to have beencrated by the god out of clay ; a legend closelyresembling tho Mosaic account of the creationof man. Placed In Iho Mosaic accounts us de-

scendants of the famll) of Him.or the blickraces. It has been usual to stIe them llatiiltlc,as an African people." II iw It happened thatthe Itlble included among tlie black race theEgipttans, who appear on tlie earliest monu-ment na red race, and In the iinit nourishingperiod "f tho empire with tlie sallow tint andrefined tvpe of the Semitic fa'iillioa uf mankind.Is nut expl lined. Here is a pi. lure ot the Intcl-Icct-

and material civ ilu.itlon "f Egypt threeto Ave thousand years before our era :

Hero ugaln the reader's curiosity Is left wholly

unsatisfied. Tho question, how long n p rlod

chined before Egvpt could havo attained sohigh a degrcuof civilization, rccclvos no answer.Such, say Dr. lllrch. Is tho beginning of thohistory of Egypt; If there nro difficulties In theway, It not for him to remove tlicm. It maybo that hi friends and of Christianknowledge, who have nn Innate iibhorrenco ofsecular chronology, were reluct mt to believethat one or two thousand yeirs inure wcro need-

ed to account for Egypt's greatness six thousandyoarsagn, sluro tlio date of creation has tubepi iced somewhere between four and six thou-sand years beforo uur era. This fact has un-

doubtedly worked to tho Injury of Dr. Illrch'abook. In fact, a much better picture of AncientEgypt Is given within nbniit the same spaco InEenormatit and Chovalller's ".Manual ot thoAncient History of tho Uut," and as hislearning Is ns great as theirs, wo aro confidentthat he could have furnished a work at leastciiially good, If ho had said to himself whatbonormaut siis In lit preface i " I am a Christian,and proclaim It loudly; but my faith fears noneof the discoveries of ciltlclsm when they arotrue. A sou of tho Church, silhmllvo In allthings necessary, I for that very reason claimfrom her with even greater ardor tho rights ofscientific liberty."

Hut when nil hu been said In the way ofobjection to thoso who consider Usher's chro.nology n part of mankind's saving faith, andwho Ignore Inquiries ot a speculative order, Itmust be conceded that Dr. lurch's manual Is amasterpiece ol uomplete, succinct, aud accuratestatement.
