CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS. Some Words of Counsel and Warning from a Patriot and Statesman. Boston, June 30,1877.; In one of the rooms of the Adams homestead at Quincy, Mass., hang por? traits of two Presidents of the United States. In that room Charles Francis Adams received the New York Sun re? porter, and talked for an hour about the methods by. which R. B. Hayes attained the seat once occupied by John Adams and John Quincy Adams. Impressive as were the surroundings, they were not iso impressive as the way in which Mr. Ad? ams gave his views. The quiet dignity with which he began became intense earnestness as he spoke of the fatal re? sults which a repetition of the Electoral Commission fraud would, entail. Both his manner and his'words belied the common impression that he is cold and reserved.; Tire-scorn with which he re? ferred to the course of the three Repub? lican Judges on that commission was withering. Equally noticeable was his anxiety that measures be taken immedi? ately to make the repetition of the crime impossible. I am now;simply a. private citizen," Mr. Adams began. "I have no wish to fo before the public My duties as resident of the Board of Trustees of Harvard College required that I should bo in Cambridge and appear publicly with Mr. Hayes. But the suggestion that because I did meet him in public, and extended to him a civility which I think proper to be extended to any one who holds the office which he does?be? cause I did this that I had changed my views as expressed in the letter to Mr. Tilden, which was published, is wholly false., I have not changed those views, nor can I. I did feel a little, peculiarly when I thought of meeting Mr. Hayes. It is a hard thing to say of any man that he bears the stamp of fraud upon his brow, and, therefore, if Mr.' Hayes saw the letter, he must have been touched by y it. ~I did not write it for publication, but only to express to Mr.. Tilden some sense of my respect for the manner in which he had acted, while the wrong was being done him. But what I then wrote I stiR adhere to. Still, Mr. Hayes came v here. He is the acting President?not the rightful President, but still he holds the office. A certain respect is due that office; that is all that my appearance with Mr. Hayes means." "Were the dvilitiea paid Mr. Hayes by the authorities extended in the same spirit?" "Massachusetts has always extended civilities to" the President.. In this case the State.extended such civilities to the acting President She* did what was right to do, and no more.''" *{Cari Mr. Hayes' trip and the civility shown hip be taken as an endorsement of.Mm or his policy?" "The trip can do him no" harm: and no good. One fact stands out prominent nothing can overshadow it; and that is the method by which he received his office.. No policy of his can atone for that" "Then, in your opinion, the attempt at ciyii'service refoim will not ofBet the means by which he obtained the Presi? dency?" "Not at all. Civil service reform:! What is it?a mere matter of detail. Insignificant beside this one great matter. Policies, reform and such, things are mere side issues. Important enough in them? selves, to be sure. Bat this matter goes a way down to the question of our exis? tence." Thei reporter. had no further opportu? nity, had he wished to question Mr. Ad? ams, for, as he spoke or the great fraud and its consequences, he seemed almost unmindful of time and fatigue. .$That was a great crisis through which the country passed last winter. It is wondsrful that the majority of the Amer? ican people, whose will was then, over? ridden, submitted to it so calmly. I am grateful that they. did. It is a credit to the American - people that there was no violence. Bet, air,"??nd Mr. Adams spoke with impressive solemnity?"it could never be so again. The next time such a thin? ? shall .happen, there wi*l be violence, bloodshed, and ruin. I have always been afraid of that weak clause in the Constitution which made such a crisis possible. I was very apprehensive early last winter when I saw that those who had been lawfully elected were to meet with opposition. When I learned that .the matter had been left to the gen? tlemen who acted upon the Commission, I felt somewhat relieved, because I thought: 'Now the Jud ges, at least, will look at this question in a mir and judicial light. They will try to get at the truth. Tney will try to learn whom the people elected to be their President and Vic? President.* And it seemed so plain who were so elected that I felt almost assured of what their decision would bev But what was the result?. Taking advantage of technicalities, of legal'quibbles, of! every point that wouidgivethem' an op -portunity of voting as they wished to ?- vote, the majority declared; as it bas. Among other sad results of that decision there is this one: It has utterly destroyed our faith in ^fche-judiciary so far as po? litical questions which may come before it are concerned. Taney, years ago, shook our faith somewhat" when he ren ' dered decisions on questions connected with slavery. This latest action has en? tirely destroyed that faith. The judiciary are no longer to be relied upon as a source of justice in political matters. "Now tins has been done. Something remains to be done, and that is the most important, the most imperative duty at hand. It muse not be allowed to be slighted. Immediate steps must be taken to makejbe^repeti?on of this wrong im pos^bieTifc must not be a party matter. '-HEnope the people of all parties will join in making this demand. Congress ought, the very first thing, to begin the conside? ration of a constitutional method of pre? venting the repetition of such a crisis. In every way. that is possible this de? mand should be made. I am very .glad - that Mr. Dana realizes the importance of I the situation, and that be is doing what he can to pake the people realize it.' Public sentiment should be so strong that such measures cannot fail of being taken as will "prevent a repetition. Whatother issue can be so important ? As I said, should such a crisis occur again, it will not end peacefully. There will be blood? shed, and the destruction of our present \ form of government. Nothing can be more certain than this, and it is marvel? lous that such was not the result last winter. It will not do, either, to wait, or it will not be safe to attempt to make ] foy changes shortly before a national action. It must be done now. We mot feel safe until it is. 'As to Mr. Hayes, I must say that I \ a sympathy for him. He means \l think, but he is in a false position, ^erefore a trying position. His is a411 be the most difficult course that ^n. president has ever had, a great deal ^jiifficult than either of those two fo^T'T^iag to the portraits of his r Hngh./ Fitiier-,rand they had it (Jtr/o I looketfr^Hayes looks ^ffi. at Cambridge, andHT^tt&^ather OQ.t&Vf worn. The difficulties are noV ??*^^08e which result from the methods JJ^nj&foade him President, but are also ratose vfcich he has made since taking his --^hat' has he done T "He has di? vided, gprt Up his own party. There is. . proof enoigh of that. See' what the r<epubIicaAs in Iowa have done. There nr?S!??e ?ti?n t?afc makes no secret of tolicf^0* 2^en Wna* ^them/; done.

Had he "been as shrewd and clear? headed a politician as Blaine or Morton, he never would have done that. I am grateful?so is every good citizen?that peace and order have come to the South. But that was the policy of the Democrat? ic party, and the policy which it would have carried out had it not been pre? vented by the event which put it in Mr. Hayes' power to do so. He who had no right to do it has done right. But he will secure no support from the Demo? cratic party for having done this, and it has divided his own.. "Then there is another difficulty which he is under. It arises from the false po? sition he took upon himself when he throw Packard overboard in Louisiana. In either way in which it is looked at, he is in a false position. He threw Packard and his party overboard as a bad lot. Now, if Mr. Packard was not elected, Mr. Hayes was not. There can be no de? nying this. So that, if he was ousted be? cause he was not elected, Mr. Hayes is in the same condition exactly. The votes that elected Hayes elected Packard. On the other hand, if Packard was elected, why was he forced to give up his seat as Governor of Louisiana? It will be seen that in either case Mr. Hayes is in a false position, and therefore his course will be a trying one. I do not see how he can ! succeed in it I cannot think it possible to be successful in the face of all these difficulties. "WhatT have said to you about the great wrong that has been done, and the necessity, the great and urgent necessity, there is that measures should be taken to prevent its repetition, I have expressed in a letter written to the Tarn many Soci? ety of New York. I received an invita? tion to be with them on the Fourth of July, but that cannot;be; so . I took the opportunity"in replying to their invita? tion to give expression to my earnest convictions upen the matter. I feel so much solicitude about it, and so desirous that a safeguard shall be obtained, that I was pleased to take this opportunity, or any opportunity, to urge that it be done. It does seem to me that the. dangers are so great and the risk so tremendous that the people and Congress should be awa? kened ; and I trust that whatever is done will not be done in any party spirit. 'This is something beyond party. It is I something upon which our existence may hang. Therefore the whole people and the national Congress ought to give it calm, wise, and judicious consideration. We must never again be met by such a crisis." THE INDIAN WAE IN IDAHO. Interesting Account of its Origin?The Cause of the Indian's Hatred to the Government?Alarming Seriousness of the Outbreak. Correspondent of the New York Sun. The uprising of the non-treaty Nez Perces and other wild tribes of Indians in northeastern Idaho, close to the Ore I gon boundary, threatens to grow into a ! formidable war, involving heavy loss of life, vast destruction of property, and un? usually large outlays of money. Already a pitched battle has been fought between : troops and a band of savages, under Chief 1 Joseph, who is the leader of the hostiles I in this new field of trouble. The whites were defeated, with the loss of one officer and thirty-two men killed, and since the tight, about three weeks ago, there have been several engagements, in which the ! Indians have shown stubbornness. Over twenty settlers?men, women and chil? dren?were cruelly slaughtered at the outbreak, and the terror excited by these tragedies spread over a wide region, ex? tending to Montana and Washington Territories. Hundreds of families aban donded their homes and sought places of safety. Some shut themselves up in block houses, rifle pits were dug in front of the small towns to keep off the savages, and there was a scarcity of arms that left the people in a measure defenseless. When it is considered that the country j swarmed with renegade and disaffected Indians well equipped with breach-load? ing weapons, and smarting under what they deemed continned wrongs, the gen ] era! sense of imminent; danger that pre ' vailed is not surprising. The movement, there was good reason for knowing, was j not a temporary outbreak, but a measure that had been matured on the basis of reemeut between the tribes, and uuder cen to be fought to the bitter end un? less the government accedes to demands. General 0.0. Howard is in command I of the department of Columbia, in which ' the territory lies where hostilities broke, out. He had been in the immediate vi? cinity in communication with Joseph ! and other chiefs, to bring about a peace i able settlement of a dispute relative to the Wallows valley. The Indians had I repeatedly declared that they would ! never give up the tract, and they told I Howard so again. The latter hinted at I the use of-force tc place them on reserva i tions when he actually had only a hand? ful of men at his disposal, and the hos? tiles could in a few days collect several [thousand warriors, thoroughly equipped and anxious for a fight. The General had permitted them to roam around the country upon the pretext of gathering up stock, when in fact they were prepar? ing to take the warpath. Joseph ana his' counsellors smiled at Howard's speeches, saying, however, that he would never persuade them to give up their old haunts. The temporizing policy of the govern? ment is also much to blame for the pres? ent condition of affairs in Idaho. The course pursued toward the Indians has neither been firm nor consistent. Their reservations were continually trespassed upon by whites, who would sell whisky j and otherwise demoralize them. Repre? sentations were made at Washington in j order that some change might be made. The wishes of the Nez Perces and other bauds received no attention at the De? partment of the Interior, and discontent increased day after day among them. The Rev. Father Mesplic, the chaplain ! at Fort Boise, was informed a short time i ago by Howlish Wampoo, chief of the ! TJmatiilas, that they had made up their minds that - there was nothing to hope from the government, and they would" [join Joseph on Salmon River. He added that if the government had attended to their justcomplaints in time everything might have been amicably arranged, and a confederated force of fully five thousand warriors would not now be on the war? path. The main cause of the outbreak, as in? timated, is a dispute over a rich and ex? tensive tract of land, known as Wallowa I valley, bh the west bank of Snake JBiver, in Union County, Oregon. It extends beyond the boundary line of Idaho, and is in the vicinity of Lewiston. The Nez I Perces have a reservation of 750,000 acres [secured to them by the treaty of 1863, which further guaranteed the title they acquired in 1855 to the land. A portion of the tribe (2,800 souls) are settled and partlyAawhsed, some of them being pros? perous farmers and stock raisers. The other half, under Joseph, are nomads, and 'have nerjer entered into any treaty withHhe United States for the surrender of their ? aims to the soil. They were not parties to the agreement of 1863, and refuse tobe bound by its terms. For many years subsequent they held on and hunted over the Wallowa valley, no one their title, which, it was ad backtot3ktQe Indiar Department, ran * lpwleuge'of the country, Id be, in any ^j^.jmfl then -f^^^^jj Preservation were\^?J'^'^m BWkrged with maki#^j^^j fefflftisfrvation '"Join NezMfc^N? him mjgfe m K*oMr the pasture^ ^^hBBP^ /7c . of horses owned by Joseph's band, be? came every day a source of greater trou? ble, and those who watched affairs there were not much surprised when the recent outbreak occurred. In 1874, the govern? ment authorized a commission composed of citizens of Oregon to proceed to the place and appraise the value of the lands reduced to civilized use by the settlers, and the improvements upon them, with the view of having them all removed from the valley so as to restore it to the Indiaus. The commission performed the appointed duty. They reported a total of" nearly 100 settlers, and an aggregate valuation of less than $100,000 for their lands and improvements. No action was taken on this report. The settlers re? mained, and the Indians proceeded to open threats against those they considered lawless intruders. Last year one of Joseph's band was killed in the valley by a white man, and after that it became only a matter of time and opportunity for the commence? ment of hostilities. The tribe took the violent death of this Indian very much to heart, and' although the chief dis? claimed any intention of resorting to re? taliation, it was well understood he cher? ished a design of revenge. The commis? sion Bent last fall, with General Howard at its head, to arrange all the difficulties on the basis of an abandonment of all Joseph's claims to the valley, was a fail? ure. The non-treaty Nez Perces stood on their acknowledged right to the lands, insisted on the retirement of the settlers, and flatly declared they would not go on a reservation. In all this business the government has not been properly repre? sented by its agents. There has been bad faith toward the Indians. The payment of the comparatively small sum men? tioned above would have satisfied the I settlers, who would have relinquished the j'valley to. the Indians. Had the govern? ment carried out the design of 1874, paid the occupants for their crops and im? provements, and secured Joseph in the possessio*: of the land he rightfully owns, the present serious trouble would uot have taken place. The amount of money already spent in the transportation of troops to Salmon River and the further outlays that will be necessary to suppress the outbreak will be many times in ex? cess of $100,000, not to speak of the wide? spread ruin and destruction of farms and settlements and the heavy loss of life, which is irreparable. The present war threatens to be of far Greater magnitude than that of the Mo? oes in 1873. Captain Jack had a lim? ited field of operations^ Joseph has an almost boundless area. The Modocs were obliged to hide in the lava beds and husband their resources carefully; the non-treaty Nez Perces can freely jpam over a vast expanse, knowing every inch of the ground, and can capture supplies I as they require them. It was only requi ! site to completely surround the Modocs and force them by hunger to surrender; the present outbreak in Idaho is entirely different. And, as has been remarked, while the Modocs were but a handful and hopeless of aid, these savages are already numerous and have a success over a body of regular troops and citizens. They are, besides, animated with a religious or superstitious idea that they have the power to rid their country on this occa? sion once and forever of pale faces, and in military circles it is believed that un? less the hostiles are speedily vanquished, every day will bring to them, over their broad field of war, allies and warriors I from other tribes, and all the renegade [savages will hasten to join them.

I see now that there is a vast difference, and that where our race assimilates with Ameri? cans freely, owing to the peculiar repel lant qualities and disinclination of the Chinese to mingle with or adopt European customs, they must ever remain total [ strangers to the people whose domestics they are, and whose work they per? form." ?
