The Latest Political Arrest.
From the Alton Democrat

From the Alton Democrat.
Mr.. George Francis Train was arrested
at his room in the Planters House, on
Saturday afternoon, at halfpast o'clock,
by Capt. Talon, of the United States Po-
lice, under an officer from Major General
Curtis, commanding the Department OF
Missouri Mr.. Train was directed to leave
St. Louis at once.
He was allowed ten minutes to make his
arrangements for this sudden transit. AT
the expiration of that time he was convey
ed by the ladies' entrance to carriage,
and from thence across the river to the
Terre Haute and Alton Railroad depot.
Arriving six o'clock, he spoke in the
City Hall at eight o'clock, to a respec-
table audience, hastily gathered to hear
him. These are the unvarnished factsin the
case. The Captain of Police had no writ.
ten order, could give no reason; stated
that he was simply obeying the perempto-
ry directions of the Commanding General
Comment is useless-the truth is enough
the people can think.
We have known Mr.. Train twelve years
known him as high-minded, patriotic cit
izen, representing with honor and success
the spirit aud enterprise of the American
race wherever the American flag floats ir
the four quarters of the globe. He de.
Tended the cause of the Union in England
when no other American dared raise hi
voice in our behalf His loyalty is as in
disputable as his genius.

From the Cincinnati Daily Times March 81 1861.
The Scandinavian Remedies appear to be
growing in favor with the public, if we may
judge by the testimonials constantly received
by the proprietor. A letter from Wisconsin, to
be found in our advertising columns, announ
ces that among the physicians of that locality
it is becoming very popular, and what is very
unusual, is being adopted by them in their
practice as cure for many diseases which they
cannot treat effectually in any other way. We
understand that the immense trade carried on
for several years in these medicines has during
the present yearly doubled. Their process OF
operating is by a thorough publication of the
blood, and consequent eradication of disease

Below we print letter from Mr.. Train
to Gen. Curtis.
ALTON HoUsE,(
ALTON, Feb. 8, 1868.
To Major Gen. CURTIS, st. Louis:
was arrested at o'clock yesterday, at
the Planters House, and ordered to pack
up and leave Missouri in five minutes.
Your order was peremptory-time limit
ed-reason not given. Your officers for
babe my going to the Office to pay my bill,
or to speak with any one in the house
your carriage was at the doOr-your es-
cort SO attentive and obliging they accom-
panied me to Illinois, where by the indie
pendent action of the people at the ballot
box, it is not now considered crime to
cheer for the Union.
On the way to Richmond, via Memphis,
delivered my seventy fifth and seventy
sixth speeches at st. Louis, calling on the
audience both nights for cheers for the
Union, the Constitution and the laws.
They were given with will
Although / am not in the liberty-loving
land of the RomanofI, the Bonaparte, the
Bourbon and the Hapsburg, make bold
to ask why [ am arrested?
Is it because the audience cheered when
l said that agreed with the soldiers and
the nation that Mcclellan was the man to
lead us to victory?
Is it because l spoke of Stewards patri-
otto course, and splendid management of
our foreign relations?
Is it because 1 endorsed the financial
policy Of Chase, which believed to be
the salvation of the country?
Is it because | commended the Presi-
dent for his wonderful sagacity in destroy
ing the Jacobin party by his illegal arrests
and issuing the Proclamation
Is it because arrangements had been
made for me to speak in the House of Rep
resentatives tomorrow night at Jefferson
City?
Tell me, General, why am arrested
Is it because l called the Democratic
party UniOnists, and the Abolition party
Secessionists? "Abolish slavery, or abol-
ish the Union, is the cry of these Robes
pierrean fanatics. IcoU them traitors. 1
want the Union any way-with slavery or
without-no matter, if we save the Con-
stitutiOn.
Your officers did not forbid my return
ing to ST. Louis. Before doing so to fulfill
my engagements, respectfully ask when
it may suit your pleasure? God forbid
that l should offend the majesty of the law,
or do aught to iniure the glorious cause of
the Republic. My crime 1 know not, I'M
less it is for having actite man on the brain.
Or, perhaps, because, unlike the Christian
pulpit, preach from the Sermon on the
Mount Blessed are tie peocemoh,ers,
for they shall be called Tie children Of
GOd."
Another thought strikes me. l alluded
unfortunately to our officers being so sue
cessful in their cotton speculations in the
enemy's country. Believe me, did not
refer to you, General; for anything you
have done in that way am sure you have
passed to the credit of the Government you
so ably represent.
May God hare mercy on the Union!
Sincerely, GEO. FRANCIS TRAIN.

THE CHIPPEWA CHIEFS GO TO WASHING
ToN-Clark W. Thompson, Superinten-
dent of Indian Affairs, Saturday received
by telegraph, consent from the Govern
ment to take on the Chippewa Chiefs, that
have been here, for some days, and such
others as should come in, for the pur-
pose of making treaty by which they
may be put upon new reservations remote
from the white settlements.
The young men accompanying the
Chiefs have been sent home. Of those
who have been here for some days, there
were eighteen Chiefs, representing the
Leech Lake, Gull Lake, Mile Lac, Rabbit
Lake, and Pokegama Lake Bands.
In addition to these, Whitehead ar
rived on Wednesday night with four other
Chiefs of the Mile Lac Band, named re-
spectively, Winnebaqo-shish, Kag-wa-
dash, Pe-tlad, and Aenomonie-A,asa, who
also go to Washington.
The Red Lake Bands refuse to treat off
of their own lands, and we believe the
Pembina Bands decline to treat, under
any circumstances.
Mr.. Thompson has sent an invitation for
Hole-in-the-Day to meet other chiefs in
Washington.
The Superintendent starts this morning
for Washington with about one-half of the
delegation. The remainder will 60 for
ward tomorrow. 10
1t is to be hoped that the present embas-
sy to Washington will result in some def
mite and satisfactory understanding as to
the future location of the Chippewas.

LOCAL AFFAIRS.

gras, who arrived in St. Paul on Tuesday
night from St. Joseph, having left there on
the 28th ult., brings us interesting accounts
of the proceedings of the Sioux Indians at
Devil Lake, Which is but short distance
from St. Joseph. Mr.. Gingras has had
peculiar facilities for knowing the inten-
tons of the Indians of that region of coun-
try, having been for some time engaged in
trading with them. He says there are
eight hundred lodges at Devil Lake, num-
bering about two hundred warriors.
Among the chiefs is Standing Buffalo, who
Che says has never taken any part in the
late murderous raid, but who still feels
that he may be suspected of having had
connection with it. because his men were
engaged therein. He regrets it so much
that he has threatened several times to
commit suicide, and wishes to be back
again amongst the whites. Little Wheat,
Medicine Bear, Burning Ground (Chief of
the Yanktonais), Wa-na-tah (Chief of the
Sissetons), and several others, are there.
Mr.. G. A. Ruffe, who was commissioned
to wait on the Pembina Band with view
to form treaty, met Mr.. Gingras on his
way down, and stated to him that they
had absolutely refused to make any treaty
at the present time He had had con-
versation with one of the Sioux Chiefs at
Pembina, (Standing Buffalo,) who in
formed him that it was the intention OF
the Sioux to make an attack on Fort Aber-
crombie in full force before the snow was
off the ground. He states that the whole
number of Sioux encamped at Devil Lake
was about two thousand five hundred
that they had sworn to kill every white
without distinction-that it was matter
of life and death to them, and that they
were determined on vengeance.
Little Grow had gone on trading expe-
dition to the Missouri river for tobacco,
but his return was hourly expected. They
Fad plenty of ammunition and think that
they will be enabled to drive out all tie
settlers and retain possession of that re-
gion of country.
They had one of Burbank's coaches and
were amusing themselves taking daily
rides in the vicinity of the Lake.
Mr.. Gingras has been informed by In
dams who were in the daily habit of trad
ing at St. 10, that there were some white
females and children prisoners yet amongst
them.
The feeling among the people ofthat re-
gion of country is, that if Fort Abercrom-
bic be not speedily and strongly reinforced
before very long, that it will fall prey
to those merciless savages, and that
Georgetown will, of course, follow.
Mr.. G. brought down over four thou
sand dollars worth of furs, which he pur-
chased principally from the Sioux trading
at St. Joseph from Devils Lake.
