The Governor had no power to appoint Superin-
tendent after the adjournment of the Senate. The
office was created by the Army bill, and it could
not legally be filled without observing the provisions
of the law If the Superintendent had been nomina-
ted by the Governor, and the Senate had given its
advice and consent and the officer had, after the
cess of the Senate resigned died. then no donbt,
under the practice of the general and State govern
ments the Governor could fill the vacancy. But he
had power to make the first appointment without
the advice and consent Of the Senate. This is the
opinion of the most eminent members of the bar in
this city, and it is also the opinion of several Attorney
Generals of the United States.
Judge Cotton's commission then is vOid-all his
acts void, and his appointments are Woodland he
has no more authority now than he had before his
appointment. No one is obliged to obey any of bis
ORDERS and his deputies and extraordinary deputies
can regard his notes as blank slips of paper. He and
those under him, cannot legally make an arrest.
Resistance to his summons is no resistance to any
law. On the contrary Judge Cotton and his deputies
liable, in damages for any arrests they may make,
and any resistance to his commands would be justi-
fable. He is not an officer, and he cannot justify
himself for any act order as Superintendent, as his
commission is a nuty

been expelled from the country At the Presidential
election, held in Nicaragua on the 26th ult Gen.
Martinez the successful candidate. Great defen-

absurd opinion that force under 10000 men would
suffice to re.establish Walkers government.

THE TEXAS ISDIANs.-In the Washington Union
OF the 26tl we find the following official intnnence

LIE IEAAS lNDlANS.--lH tne washington Union
of the 26tl find the following official intelligence
Mr.. Robert S. Neighbors, the supervisory agency
of the Texas Indians, in letter dated the Sth of
October last, informs the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs that he had, on the Goth of September last
entered into an agreement with the several tribes of
Indians on the reserves in Texas by which all the
prisoners in their possession to be given up at
the agent agreeing to give $50 in presents until
the goth day of October; after which time all the
captives to be taken from the tribes who might
agreement prohibits the Indians from taking prison
ers or holding them in future.
Already ten Mexican prisoners had been given up,
and handed over to the military to be sent to their
homes. 1t was expected that all these prisoners
would be given up within the month.
The agent calls the attention of the department to
the treaties existing with the Camanches and
other prairie tribes by the stipuatons of which all
captiyes are to be given up. He hopes that these
provisions will be strictly carried out, and that all
presents in future will be withheld unless they are
complied with.
The agent was informed that party of Canaan
ches and Kiowas, numbering perhaps two hundred
and fifty, well equipped and well armed, were on
their way to Mexico for the purpose of committing
depredatons They expressed themselves to be
friendly to the whites and certainly had not moesed
any of the American citizens.
Recently one Kiowa chief and several Camanche
chiefs visited one of the Indian reservations They
expressed themselves to be friendly to Americans
and highly pleased with the presents which they re-
ceived. When the new reservation east of Red river
should be completed it their intention to settle
down but for the present, most of the young men
were determined to continue their forays on the
MeXiCans.

WASHINGTON NOT FRENCH MARsHAL.-A state
ment went the rounds of the press months ago,
the authority of the late Mr. GUSTS, to the effect
that, in revolutionary times the French Govern
ment conferred on Washington the title of Marshal
Of France. The statement arrested the vgilant eye
Of Mr. Walsh, in Paris who, distrusting its correct
ness addressed note on the subject to Marshal
Valiant, the French Minister Of War. The following
is Marshal Vaillant's reply
No trace Of a decree comforting on Gen. Washing
ton the dignity of Marshal has been found in the
archives of this ministry. The research, begun at
the date of the treaty of alliance Feb, 177S) and
carried down far 1885, three years after the
clusion of the peace (Oct.. 1889 has produced no
other result There is order of Count de Rochan-
BEAU 18th JUN, 17S0) which directs that the honors
due to Marshal Of France should be paid to Gen.
Washington. These honors and the dignity itself
have, perhaps. been confounded In all the CORE.
spondence with Rochamheau, Washington receives
and takes only the title of General.
This must be accepted as finally disposing of the
matter +" If the title had beeu bestowed remarks
Mr.. Walsh, "surely the evidence would not be want
ing in the official register of the appointments OF
Marshal" And we presume that nobody will dispute
the force Of this reflection. OF course the point is
of merely historical interest as no one imagnes that
a legion of foreign honors would add the slightest
luster to the name of Washington.
