THE BED MAN'S APPEAL

A remarkable interview has taken plaee at Washing.
ton, between "Red Cloud" and other chiefs of the
Sioux Indians, and Government officers. The treaty
rights of the Indium have been disregarded, the Indians
resist encroachment, blood is shed, vengeance on the
red-skinned savages is vowed by every white men, and
a war is the result, in which no quarter is given because
no pity is felt. Tee United States' troupe which are
lent to protect the settlers have naturally all the preju-
dices of their own race, and deeds 1419 done which make
humane people shudder.
The Secretary of the interior urged them to keep the
peace, and u the beff.l.) were getting sc.reer every
reit% to endeavour to rain. tame cattle for their support,
and promised that everything should be done to provide
for their wants.

After stew moment; doling whith Red Cloud seemed
to be in a very deliberative mood, that distinguished
ehief arose and came to the table where sat the officials
He shook hands with those at the table in the council
room, and delivered the following oration :
'• I came from where the sun seta. You were raised on
chairs. I want to at se I alt where the sun meta (Here the

me nothing but an island. Our nation is melting away like the

your people are lite the blades of erase in spring when summer
is coining. I don't want to ice the white people making roads
in our country. Now that I have come into my Great Father's
land, see if I have any blood when I return to my home? The
white people have speinkled blood on the blades of gram about
the line of Fort Fetterman. Tell the Great Father to remora
that fort, then we will he peaceful and there will be no more

that my children and old men are doing off like sheep. The

My father and mother told me that the lend there belonged to

We have come to know the fact, from our Father why the pro-
mises which have been made to us have not been kept. I want
two or three traders that roast for. At the mouth of Home
Creek, in lilt, there was a treaty made, and the man who
made that frosty (alluding to General Mitchell), who performed
that service for the Government, told me the truth. Goods
which have been Rent out to me have been stolen all along the
rand, and only a handful would reach me among my nation.
Look at ma Here lam poor and naked, I was not raised with
arm& I always went to be peaceable. The Great Spirit has
mired you to read and write, and hes put paper. before you;
but he Inns not raised me in that style. The man whom the
President minds us, soldlen and all, have no seam and no heart.
I know it to-day. I deftest that the whites should go through
my country killing game, and it is the Great Father's fault.
You are the people who shall keep peace. For the mares&
you are peedng through my country I have not received even

you afraid I ant going to war? You are &faith lam going to
war. You are greet and powerful and lam only an handful. I
do not want it for that purpose, but I can't do it right away."
Each sentence of this speech was received with loud
grunts, denoting hearty applause, from the Indians
present.

The result depraused the Indians and alarmed the
whites.

After much persuasion, the Indians were inducted to
attend another Council next day, when the Fiecreterp
promised them everything they 'eked except the
removal of Fort Fetterman. Red Cloud said now he
