RENTS AND REAL EsTATE.--Some persons are
wondering that the auction sales of real estate
do not indicate more marked decline in price
than they do. In the first place, there are auc-
tiOns of real estate which are not to be relied
on, any more than stock auctions; in the
second place, the time for real estate 10 suffer
has hardly come yet. We must wait till May
before we zee the effect of the revulsiOn upon
real estate: many holders will struggle even
beyond that date.
Real estate and rents must come down. Not
perhaps small houses and moderate,priced dwell
'ings and stores; but all the palatial mansions
which have been built in the upper part of the
city within the past few years, and all the cost
ly stores which have been run up in Broadway
and some of the streets near the Park. People
viii not afford either to live in such houses or
to hire such stores this year. They will be sold,
and sold below their original cost; or they will
be rented at fifty per cent below what was paid
for them last year.
AS an instance of the sort of property which
will be affected by the revulsion we may quote
the large stores which have been built in Beck
man street on the site of the old Brick Church
These buildings will not pay their owners three
per cent this year. and if they should happen
to be otherwise embarrassed, they may be the
means of breaking them down

Indian Affairs

WASHINGTON, July 6th.-Dr. Forney Su.
perintendent OF Indian Affairs in Utah,
writes TO the Indian Burean that he has
made several treaties with tribes who have
been at enemity for years. lhe nations he
had visited have always been faithful to
I Cnited States, but are in position to have
done, if SO disposed, much more harm than
the Mormons. The Indian affairs are repre-
sented In very mixed condition. II in
tends to visit all the tribes from Salt Lake
City to Carson Valley. Agent Redtield
writes from TT. Pierre, Nebraska Territory
that the Sioux are much excited on account
of the treaty of tie United States with the
fanctons They claim that the lands be-
long to them. and protest against the Yanc
tons being paid anything. They are in an
irritated and disturbed state Of mind, and
Mr.. Redfeld could not have transacted any
business with them if it had not been for
the presence Of the troops They are inso-
lent and fault finding, and it viii be neces-
sary to chastise them severely.
The stipulations. Of the Laramie treaty
are not observed, nearly all the nations and
tribes being at war, and depredating one
another as well as Oh the whites.
