An Indian war is said to be immi nent, and all because the Indians de manded by the U. S. Governmeu will not be delivered up. Senator Ben Hill is strong for the repeal of the legal tender clause. We give a part of what he said lo the re porter of the New York World: "You may know what I think of Mr. Bayard's resolution when 1 say tbat io my judgment there never was and there never can be a more unconstitutional or a more undemocratic idea than tbat of a legal-ten der paper money. There ia nothing in tne Constitution to authorize a legal-tender pa per money. There ia nothing in tbe history of the Democratic party to excuse tbe adop tion of such an idea by tbe party. The Democratic party never baa committed it self to tbe idea of a legal.tender paper cur rency." He thinks the time opportune, and chat all divisions on the subject ought o end and lead to a return to the few days aeo. It seems that he was sub ject to having fits, and while cooking his meals must have fallen into tbe fire, in which position he lay when discovered. We deeply sympathize with our friend, John Watson, Esq., of Greene county, in his loss by fire amounting to some $1,200 or more.
