We learn from Fort Vancouver that treaty OF
peace and alliance had been made between the
United States and Nez Perces Indians by Colonel
Wright and other officers of the army in that eoun-
try. 1t had also been approved by Gen Clark. 1t 1t
binds the Nez Perces to aid the United States with
troops, arms and ammunition in wars OF other
tribes with them. In case of assistance to the
United States, the Nez Perces are not to be re-
qured to furnish arms or property to the former
except they are paid for them or it.
Col. Wright has established military post, called
Fort Taylor, on Snake river, Oregon, at the mouth
of the Tukan-on.
Major Garnett has had brush with the Indians
near 0kanagan, and defeated them with small
loss.
Col Bonneville, Major Rhett. DR.. De Leon, Major
Fry, Lieut. Wilkins, and Mr.. w. Fl. Brooks, of the

Orders have been issued from the head quarters
of the army to those officers belonging to the de-
partment of Texas and now absent therefrom, who,
under existing ORDERS would have to proceed to

MOVEMENT OF OCEAN STEAMERS

SAILING OF THE PARAGUAY ExPEDITIoN-The T. S
frigate Sabine sailed from New York on the expedi-
ton to Paraguay on Saturday last. She takes out
the Commissioner, Judge Bowlin and his suite, and
also the naval and military commander of the expe
dition, Commodore Shubrick, and his fleet officers
Her complement of men, including marines, is about
600
We may regard the sailing of this vessel as the
starting of the expedition for the vessels that are
left behind will not long delay their departure and
as they are steamers, they will probably reach their
destination soon after the Sabine and before anv
attempt at pacific negotiation with the Paraguayan
Government can be consummated by the Commis-
sioner. On the arrival of the Sabine in the La Pla
ia, the Minister and his suite will be transferred to
the Fulton, and ascend the Assuncion, the capital
OF Paraguay, if practicable If, however, Lopez
should forbid the vessel ascending the river, MIR.
Bowln may endeavor to have diplomatic commu-
nlcatlon with him from the Fortress Trias Borcas
at the mouth OF the Paraguay river.
1t IS wrong to suppose that these efforts at
peaceabe adjustment will be made while our fleet is
In the waters of Paraguay. On the contrary, be-
sides the vessel which conveys the Commissioner to
his destination, war vessel of the United States
will be within several hundred miles of the limits of
that country's jurisdiction. In case a resort to
force is necessary, it is stated that Com Shubrick
will be able to employ land force over 900 men,
and still have enough force on board to man those
vessels of the fleet which are of sufficiently light
draft to be employed in effective demonstration
