Salt Lake, May 9.-?A correspondent
of the Omaha Herald, yesterday, inter?
viewed Brigham Youog, end. obtained
his views of the Indian question. Young
said that in 1847, he settled In this coun?
try with 140 souls, and for thousands of
muea aronnd them the land was infested
with hostile Indians, r ue gained their
friendship by noting honorably with
them, and never stooping to deception.
When he made a promise, he kept it;
that the hostility of the Indians had
I been augmented by robberies, commit?
ted by On scrupulous agents of the Go?
vernment; that they bad lost all faith in
j kUm hnnnr ?nd integrity of tbe Govern?
ment' officials; that the Modocs did to
I the Commissioners just what they
thought was being endeavored to be
[done4c them, and that peaoe should be
I made at any cost, or the entire world
I would be embroiled in a general Indian
I war. When . the correspondent asked
Mr. Young whether he endorsed Presi?
dent Grant's Indian polloy, he replied:
I "I endorse his policy so far as it corrects
I abuses ah'd tends f/o a lasting peace and
to tho civilization of the Indians." He
also said'that 'an Indian war would de?
stroy commerce, capital and emigration
I between' Missouri and the Paoifio coast,

for twenty years, whioh would in itself
be a great calamity. 1

Crvrr, Biohts at Nkwbubq.?The fif?
teenth amendment is being tried in a
very prsotioal shape at Newbarg, ia this
State. The Board of Education in that
interesting Tillage on tbe Hudsoo have
oome to the conclusion that there is no
use in maintaining a bouooI especially
for colored ohildren. They, therefore.
' promulgate the decree that "all ohildren
of the proper school age be admitted to
I the schools of tbe oity without regard to
race, oolor or previous condition of
servitude." This is a phase of the civil
rights bill whioh ia likely to create gene?
ral dissatisfaction and trouble. Very
many white pupils will be found who
will strongly objeot to personal associa?
tion in school with colored children, and
tho entire educational system may re
I oeive a serious oheok in consequence.
I Separate schools for white aud colored
pupils, it is argued, will be found nooes
sary to promote a harmonious working
of the system. It will be interesting to
watch tbe result of this attempt to bring
together into one school all children,
"without regard to race, oolor or pre?
vious condition of servitude." The trial
of the experiment will, undoubtedly, not
be confined alone to the good people of
Newburg-on-Hadson.
