WAsHIxoroN, Sept. 2l.-Judge James
| Steele, acting Clerk of the Indian Bureau,
leaves tomorrow to attend the Council of
the Indian tribes now on the Platte river,
to be held On the 4th prox. There are in
dications that treaties of a very desirable
nature will there be ratified.
The Tribune's Washington special dis
patch says: The Committee appointed
by the President to negotiate treaties with
the Southwestern Indian tribes are now
in council with them at Fort Smith. They
have notified Secretary Harlan that they
have ascertained that John Ross, the edu-
Gated Cherokee, and formerly chief Of that
nation, was rebel emmissary during the
rebellion, and by means of his superior
education induced his people to abjure
their allegiance to the United States and
ioin the armies of the Confederates. He
still claims to be Chief of the Cherokees,
and as such is using his influence to
poison the minds of those Indians who
are truly loyal and disposed to enter
into permanent peace, amity and friend
ship with the United States. Believ-
ing him to be an enemy to the Govern
ment, and that he did moi represent any
considerable portion Of his people, the
Committee formally refused to recognize
him as Chief of the Cherokees, and mott
fed the Secretary of the Treasury OF their
action in the matter. The President hav-
ing been consulted on the subject, ap-
proved the action Of the Committee, and
through Secretary Harlan apprised the
members to that effect; he instructed
them to negotiate with such parties only
as were DESTROYS again Of resuming their
former relations with the Government.

tain peaceful relations with each other,
with Indians of the Territories and with

abolished forever, and that freedmen shall
be suitably provided for that lands shall
be issued to the Indians of Kansas and
