INDIAN COfJNCII,

The Wnnebaso Council, which we noticed al
some length in Friday nights paper, (says the
Union continued its suings on Saturday and To-
day. After conference with the President on
Friday, The Commissioners submitted, through
Colonel Albert on Saturday morning two dis
linct propositions TO the Indian delegation nei-
Their of which, we understand, was accepted
Major Andrews also addressed the delegation on
Saturday, in well.tmed, sensible talk, in which
he treated plainly of The difficulties attendant up
on the present position Of the tribe within The Ii
mits of the new State of Iowa, and of the absolute
necessity Tor its removal; and his speech, it was
apparent, was not without some good effect upon
the minds OF these Indian diplomats. Owing 10
the large number Of ladies and gentlemen, who
lhronged the council room, al The corner OF Penn
syvana avenue and I7th street. on Saturday, The
Apollo Hall was procured for The siitings OF The
council and al an early hour to-day, hundreds Of
ladies and a large audience Of gentlemen were in
attendance previous 10 the assembling of the
chiefs and braves before the commissioners
Little Hill the principal orator Of the delegation,
made brief talk al the opening Of the council,
and concluded BY submittinga written answer 10
the proposition made on Saturday by Col. Albert
The nature of this answer we did not fully learn;
but from The speech OF Lille Hill, and the reply
OF Gov. Paris, one OF The commissioners, we can
not bur regard it as doubtful whether any treaty
will be made al present.
Messrs. Paris, Albert and Andrews, are the
commissioners on the part of the Government,
and their Secretary is J. C. Mullay, Clerk in
The Indian bureau, detailed tor this occasion.
The council will assemble again tomorrow
morning, at The Apollo Hall, opposite 10 cur Of

will nrohably DO concluded We shall advise
readers ol The result.

SANTA AENA.-We give the following item
from the Baltimore Patriot, which may, or
may not, account for the very unaccountable
landing Of Santa Anna at Vera Cruz in the
face Of . blockading squadron.
II now appears tolsrably apparent that the
Tiao JMsliOn Grant asked for by Mr.. Polk, was
10 be put into the pockets Of Santa Anna, and
not Paroles. J have before asked If Santa
Anna had NOT been approached in the matter?
Our Government has sent an Agent to Cuba.
Ths British Government has sent an Agent
there also. And now We SEQ 1t announced
that Santa Anna has left bis exile in Cuba to
resume tho reins Of command in Mexico.
How Is be 10 land at Vera Cruz, unless gu
blockading squadron stationed there is ordere,
by our Government to lei him land, in orde
shat lie assume the head Of his Government
and sell a part Of his country to his frien'
Polk!
