This disaffection, too, is becoming alarmingly general, and threatens to spread through the entire Sioux nation. In such a contingency the territories would be overrun with savages. Two remarkable witnesses have been captured by the House Committee on Judiciary. Their names are Carry and and they live at Little Rock, when they are at home. At present they are in Washington, having been summoned to testify in the Blaine investigation.

OF THE DETEATXD. The Chicago Tribune does not like the Platform adopted by the Republicans of Illinois on Wednesday last: 1st, Because, to use Its (the own elegant langnage, it "declared in favor of the Rag Baby and the 4 Bloody Shirt 2-Because, as it alleges, the well-meaning masses of the convention were imposed upon by a few unscrupulous, malicious, starveling beggars who packed the Congressional caucuses, and got themselves elected as resolution-committsemen. 3. Because these resolutions were intended to be a stealthy assassination of Mr. Blaine in the house of his friends! We hare, in our time, seen the tears of the disappointed and heard the lamentations of the defeated; bat for downright idiotic boobyism these alleged reasons fordis-consolateness surpass anything within the range of our recollection.

Let us recapitulate briefly the facts in this case: For months the Chicago Tribune baa been fairly groaning with heavy editorial appeals to the Republicans of Illinois to put themselves squarely in favor, this year, of a hard-money currency, and the speediest possible return to it, flaunting at the head of its columns that intended mockery of the character and value. as money, of the Treas ury notes of the government; in favor of the "white man's government" in the Southern States, as contra-distinguished from that of the Northern white settlers and the blacks in those States, denominating most op-probriously the former as "carpet-bag" thieves, and the latter practically as so many voting cattle and, finally, as the surest mode to parify politics, by all means to nominate Bristow for President, and under no circumstances to nomi nate Blaine nor any other "machine" politician! To give practical effect to these recommendations, the Tribune and its adherents tried, with the aid of a huge amount of Federal Treasury patronage and all other appliances known to ring politicians of the old school, to "set up" the State Republican Convention. There is a legend that the editor-in-chief of the Tribune himself did not refuse to go into ward primaries and help stir up the lagging energies of the boys at work in those fields; that he even consented to go (if he could be elected) as a delegate to the County Convention, and if that could not be, then to the State Convention, and that proving impossible, then to the National Convention. But, as John Randolph once remarked, (ungenerously, we think,) the people have no right to insist that a man shall serve them against their will," and as the people did not in sist in this instance, the editor-in-chief remained at home. More than this: most of his anti- machine allies remained at home also.

They, in fact, so managed to get in the way of the political machine," that it pulverized some of them to impalpable powder. To drop the metaphorical for the practical: The Tribune went before the Republicans of tlte State in behalf of Hard Money, Southern Conservatism, and Bristow, and was repudiated worse than any man or newspaper affecting leadership of any party was ever repudiated in Illinois. It had, in particular, made a most cowardly warfare against Mr. Blaine, making its thrusts at first in the guise of friendship, then from ambuscade, and at last fierce assaults from all quarters. In its defeat and humiliation, it assails the intelligence, first of the State Convention, and of course by logical necessity of the Republican masses who selected the delegates to the State Convention.

The Tribune hurls at the nineteen members of the Committee on Resolutions, one term of reproach which is somewhat new in the vocabulary of political partisanship via. that of starveling beggars." This may be intended as very withering, per haps annihilatory, but somehow it seems to as a man, and particularly a representative man, may be both hungry and poor, and yet be tolerably honest, respectable, and intelligent, particnlary if the aggregate honesty, respectability, and intelligence of a great State should happen to indorse him The Good Book, however, affords to the nineteen unfortunates infinite encourage ment in the narrative of the starveling beggar," who, in the ultimate settlement of earthly accounts, was taken permanently into exceedingly respectable society, and a comfortable abode, while an antithetical party, who had been well-fed, well-clothed, and abundantly laden with money-bags (the latter possibly obtained through quintuple salaries while plying his vocation as a was compelled to abide in a very undesirable neighborhood, where the temperature ranged a good deal higher than one hundred degrees in the shade Out neighbor of the Bristow persuasion seems to forget that its assaults upon the Illinois Republican Platform do not and cannot reach the humble and unpretentious individuals who framed and reported it; nor even upon the six hundred delegates who adopted it, and marked its adoption by the most enthusiastic demonstrations of approval; bat upon the whole Republican party of the State, whose exclusive property it now is. If oar sometimes Republican contemporary should choose to continue the warfare against this officially-proclaimed Republican creed of the State, the party will probably manage to get along as it did under similar circumstances four years ago. TEX CITT UrOElTZOHSSI. The city of Chicago is beginning to reap the fruits of the folly of its insane advisers.

The paper of the city has gone to protest! And the villainous feature of this disgrace is the shameful fact that the pretended Mayor, Thomas Hoyne, urged the city of Chicago to plunge into bankruptcy in the face the fact of its ability to borrow money to protect its credit! When it became known that the advice of Mr. Hoyne had been accepted, and that the city of Chicago had written across its promissory notes the damning word "repudiated," there was a murmur of indig- body as one of the most atrocious and revolting nation from every honest man in this common- in tne SnnalS Of dime. He Was formerlv utIah I MnrViant meA ant "shame." and hnrried to Mr. Hoyne to demand an explanation of his suicidal coarse, and to insist that they bo not further disgraced by i a continuation of the ruinous policy. Merchants know tho value of credit.

They know that the "trader who does not pay his note on presentation, if ho is able, is on the road to rain. They know, in tho case of tho "trader," that beiore protest every resource has been exhausted, and hence they regard unnecessary submission to protest as tho act of a knave or a fooL They argue, and argue correctly, that the dishonor of tho city's paper is the dishonor of every business man in Chicago! They know that the, credit of the individual do ponds, in a Largo measure, upon the credit of tho community la which he lives, and that to confess tho bankruptcy of tha community is to weaken that hi head was jerked from the body and bung aadfinally destroy tho good nam of every indi- vidual com posing it. They know that the flrtt question which will be propounded to the Chicago man who visits Nsw York will bet "Why does sot your dty government pay its debts Why havo yott permitted your rulers to disgrace yoaT" And they know there Is bat one honest answer to this question, namely: We have rs solved to pay our debts when we get ready! What are yoa going to do about it But the citizen of Chicago who is a merchant dare not make this answer. He will explain that, the authorities misrepresent the people that there is no desire on the part of the people to repudiate the honest debts of the city. The inquiry will then be made: "Why did yoa foist into the Mayor's chair a man who is devoid of a proper sense of public honor? Why did yoa proceed to revolutionize your government by illegal methods methods unknown to the law? Why did not yoa repudiate the repudiation teachings of the Tribune and the Timet and their rebellious crew of tax-fighting repudiatorsT" The only answer to these questions will be: We fell into the net of the tax-fignters.

They owe rtyht millions of dollars to the city; they owe twice as much as the whole floating debt of the city; and they ought to shift the responsibility for their hnge defalcation upon Mayor Coir in. They demand ed his resignation they threatened to hang him they procured the services of an unscrupulous press to stir the people to riot, and on the wave of this clamor they bore Mr. Hoyne into office. in violation oX all the forms ol law. It is a sorry showing, a humiliating outcome to a load, boist erous pretense of superior public virtue and patriotism.

The men who have withheld from the city it just dues robbed the government of its just claims upon them, repudiated the most sacred obligation of. the citizen these men denounce the administration of Mayor Colvint With the money that belongs to the city held tightly in their pockets these men cry, stop thief I anything ele than repudiation to be expected of men who have themselves repudiated their just debts, and so forcod insolvency upon their creditor the city? Was anything else to be expected of Mr. Hoyhe, roe chosen representa tive of the ring of tax-fighters? Mr. Col Tin offered to resign if even tho ringleaders wonld pay the sums they owe the city. Did they ac cept the proposition? Not one of them! They appeared in the mass meeting which they had themselves organized guilty of having broken the compact of society itself, defaulters to the government against which they vaunted high- sounding resolutions.

PfcfTICOST OS BB.1ST0W. The Chaplain the Rev. George Fenticost of Mr. Bristow's old regiment has written letter, and it is enough to make the Secretary's friends "gnaw a file and flee unto the mountains of Hepsidam" when they reflect that this letter, if published a week ago, might have saved their friends in Illinois. Why George I'enticoet should hsve been so tardy in Ahia business we do not understand; but it is very aggravating.

Penticost fitjnto" the war with and knows the great Kentucky statesman through and through. They messed together, rode together, slept together, drank together (water, of so arse), and in all respects, aave the fleshly liga ture, constituted another pair of Siamese twins. And Penticost loved Benjamin, he tells us, and always had it in his head that the latter woakl some time be great, and rule thing. Upon Mr. Bristow's appointment as Secretary, I remarked to some friends," says Penticost, that that appointment would be his virtual nomination to the Presidency." So our readers can see that George isn't a bit surprised at the spontaneous uprising for Bristow that is irradiating the northern hemisphere.

Having thus spoken the thoughts that flashed through his own prophetic soul, the Chaplain lets us into the pretty secrets of his privste experience with the Secretary, some Of which are thrilling in the extreme. After reading his anecdotes of warrior-statesman, we see the reason for the Chicago Tribune statement, a few day's since, that the army and the navy could be it once disbanded in case of Bristow's election! Daring the war," says Penticost, he was the terror of the sutlers, snd rings' of sllkinds were dashed to pieces like a potter's vessel, while corruption fled Ikeiore him like fog before the sun." Good enough! That's the kind of a man we like! We don't care whether he waa the terror of the rebels or not, so long as he went for the sutlers, and of course, when corruption was fleeing before him, "like fog before the sun," he couldn't give up the chase and fool away ammunition on the Confederates. This, too, makes that little affair at Fort Donelson all plain as day. Mr. Bristow was missing then, and the history of the war has failed to throw light npoo his whereabouts.

But, ws know now, thanks to Penticost, that he was deep in the tangled forest, amid the snow and ice and driving sleet, in vigorous and breathless pursuit of that "corruption." We pause, and wipe away the perspiration of admiration as we think of it! We can see him breaking that "potter's vessel" with one blow of his saber, and then boldly dashing forward after the sutler who owned it Grant was saying about that time to Buckner: "I propose to move immediately upon your works." Bat Bristow wss ahead of him. He had moved upon the works of the sutler, captured his ear-dines and Boston crackers, and broken his "potter's vessel" into smithereens! There's a candidate for yon! This display of sublime heroism would be sufficient of itself, but Penticost does not pause here. Having shown his candidate's gallantry, he completes his task by exhibiting his "discipline." "No matter whether it was a friend or foe," says the Chaplain, "be instantly called to account the offender." I can to mind at thli moment a trifling breach of discipline while on a march by myaeli I ballcTa it waa falling oat of line end, notwithstanding tbelaUmacyor friendship between oa. 1 wa pieced under arreat, ba remarking iii. hjm utj um oueues au ine shore It is easy to see what kind of man Mr.

Bristow is from this circumstance. No soldier not determined to save the Union at every hazard would have thought of this strategic movement' and executed it with such fearless impartiality It is almost a wonder that Pentioost did not suffer death at tho hands of such a disciplinarian, and ho ought to be a bappy man that bo is alive in this centennial year, mingling his voice with the countless multituds that are rolling np an anthem for Brfetow. Bat not only was Benjamin Bristow a disci plinarian and a smasher of "potter's vessels. He was a man of rigid, might almost say osseus, iateurity as well In tho chase after John Morgan ono day, through Indiana, Bristow's horse gars cat. "I was at his side at tho tune," says Pentecost; Ton sea Penticost was always at bis post of duty, and Instead of taking a horse.

Somewhat surprised at this, rtnticost asked: "Why did yoa sot give a gTwernxnent receipt?" Mr. Bristow replied: Tho government requires officers to furnish their own horses. I hay no right to make the government pay (or my horse, and I have bo right to take a man's horse without paying lor him." Psnticost tall back la speechless astoa- lakment at this, and tho borgaia was completed.

Two traits la Mr. Bristow's character are strik ingly exhibited ia the above transaction. First, tbs confidence he rcrirsed la that rjersonal obli gation with which he "paid" for the horse. "I beg to hand to my friend, Mr. Thomas Trad die," said Micawber, "my I.

Behold the parallel 1 We do not know who that grateful Hooaier was who sold the horse, or where he bred, but his heart mast sell with emotion now as he contemplates the uprising for that brave commander who disdained to take his horse without "paying" for it. and who gave him his personal obligation for the animal "at thirty or sixty daye."

This narrow escape must hsve thrilled the soul of Penticost, and it wss doubtless through his efforts that Bristow wss thereafter restrained from such reckless exposure of his person.

He baa shown himself eminently worthy the bad advice of his backers. He openly de clares that be is a repadietor. say rwpo- diator advisedly; for tbs merchant who should.

But Mr. Hoyne, the pretended Mayor of the city of Chicago, sesames to speak for the city, aad in Its name to aay to its creditors: We decline to pay oar debts when due; we will pey yoa within three years, if we can." It is a grave accusation to make against sny man: "Yoa are a repudiate! And in saying it of Mr. Hoyne the pretended Msyor, we feel bound to make proof of the troth of the charge. In reply to a telegram from a creditor of the city of Chicago saying, What are you going to do about the June certificates? Mr.

Bat as Comptroller of Chicago Mr. Hayes can and will raise money to protect the credit of the city to the last dollar of its paper. We do not hesitate to declare, more over, that the attempt of Mr.

Hoyne to remove Mr. Hayes from office is traceable directly to the stand taken by him (Hayes) in defense of the city's credit. Mr. Hayes was removed, or rather an attempt was made to remove him, because he declared both his purpose and his ability to pro vide for every dollar of the city's indebtedn maturity. N'o man of the stamp of Mr.

Hoyne can creep into the office of Mayor without war rant of law, and there stay long, to play the role of assassin to the credit of the city of Chicago. It ia no wonder the merchants and other basin men of Chicago resent with deep Indignation the insolence of the pretender; it is no wonder that they are rallying to the support of Mayor Colvin and Comptroller Hayes. If Mr. Hoyne is permitted to com piste his usurpation the credit of the citr will be wrecked. His meaaage recom mending repudiation, and his telegrams to cred itors coolly proposing apian of repudiation, are death-blows to tho credit of the municipality The great fire of 1871 was a terrible calamity, but was as nothing compared to tho calamity most And shall bo preserved, and lTa- Ocsas will xootinae do battle tor the right.
