At the conclusion Of ths address,, whi:h was id.
terpreted to the Indisas present by Major Brideer
the first founder of this post, Washakee, We
Snake chief, had the pipe of peace filled By his
medicine man, who, ster lighting it, handed it to
wasbskees first councillor, by whom it was car
ried first to each of the chiefs Of the Bonnacks and
next TO each of the Snake chiefs; he then stood
with it in the center of the circle and, with much
ceremony, pointed il 10 each of the points OF the
compass and 10 the heavens and the earth, and then
passed it first to the Ute chiefs and next TO the war
riors This was the smoking of the pipe Of peace,
which formed one Of the highest pledges with them
OF desire to continue and cherish seLtnents OF
friendship toward each other. During the cere-
mOny the bearer of the pipe (wh0 carried as an
the person TO whom u was presented took lew
pufs of the smoke.
This ceremony, over White-Eye, the Ute chief,
st the request of Washakee, spoke first and ex-
pressed his great desire to maintain peace and to
forget all past aDimOsties. lie also promised tnat
his children (meaniDg bis trlbe) should not break
the peace exstiDg between them, and would always
endeavOr 10 prevent such an evil.
To this Washekee replied that he was very glad
to hear the Utes speak thus; that, as for hun, he
hid ssiOns apologies to make Tor any dll-
feulBes which had occurred, as ne nor his people
had never broken any treaties which they had ever
made with any people; that if the treaties were
broken, it was never by bis tribe; and benow called
ON all present to remember this, and notice who
would fret cause any renewal of difficulties between
them. He also said that it was his pride and his
boast that his people had never shed drop OF white
mems blood, and that not drop OF their blood
stained his soil or his garments. He concluded by
earnestly requesting DR.. FOrney to establish farm
for tht m, so that they might learn to cultivate the
er, und, and raid that he was glad to have Amer-
cans settle OIL his land.
The Bonnack chief then spoke, and said that he
was willing to bury up the Old teuds that had eX-
listed between the different trbes, and extend to all
the hand Of friendship. He, however, requested
TO be instructed how he should act toward his enc
mics, the Crows and Blackfeet He ga d that when
he went out to hunt buffalo, they followed him and
stole his horses, killed his young men and annoyed
them in every manner. cam |" said ne, Z" under
''tbese circumsta aDces to let my hands drop at my
"side, Jay down my gun and unstIing my bow"
To these inter rogatories DIR. FOrney replied, that
he did not wish to discuss in this council matters
not connected with their relations with the several
tribes in this Territory, bat would be pleased to ad-
yi.e with him IN the subject at some future time.
The council then ended with a general shaking
Of hands.
In tho afternoon DR.. +. Visited the Snake and
BObnack camps, and distributed y them ther
presents.
The Utes have not received presents on THE oc-
ca,ion as they were suppled last Winter.
Yesterday and to-day the different tribes have
been moving away to their several hunting grounds,
all, no doubt, forcibly impressed with sense OF
the great power and goodness of Uncle Sam
