THE INDIAN TROUBLES.

II will be recullected that when, last
November. the militia of Colorado gave
the red devils cleaning out, and for a
time, put stop to their murderous depre-
dations, the " cruelty Of the whites was
made the subject of Congressional investi-
CATION. The Denver Nsecs, in view of the
lately renewed hostilities, made the follow
ing sarcastic suggestion"
Since it is a settled fact that the friendly
peaeeable-surrendered -high-toned--gentle-
Observation-Disclosures savages are again
ION it, down the Platte, we respectfully sug.
eest that small and select battalion Of
high officials" be permitted to go down in
stanter to paeify the devils, receive their arms
and negotiate treaty by which they will bind
themselves not to massacre any but the out
side settlements this winter, and also to let
an occasional train come through with bread
and meat, We have NO doubt that the gen.
tlemen are ready, willing and waiting to en- .
ter upon the pleasant duty Of proceeding un-
der the protection Of a white flag, with olive
branches in their hands, to the country resi-
dences Of Messrs. Black Kettle, White Ante
lope & Co., when it will be their pleasure to
FIX things to suit them.
The Black Hawk Journal says, upon
the same subject:
Unless decided measures are soon taken
and a remedy that is remedy applied, the
country called Colorado will have to be aban-
doned By the whites.

MAGNIFICENT Sw1NDLB.-We were this
morning informed of a supposed stupen-
dous swindle in mining stocks. in which
one of our prominent citizens is victim.
It appears that some time since a we'll
known Virginia broker was intrusted with
the sale oENaluable mining claims belong
ing to pafties here. The stock was sent
on to New York and sold for $35. 900 in
gold. The sellers have been waiting some
time anxiously for their money, but it not
coming to hand. they recently autographed
on to New York and received q reply
that their agent had ordered the buyers to
withhold payment. subject to his order.
This statement not harmonizing with his
account of the transaction, or their in
strue6ons, has aroused their suspicious,
and energetic measures are being taken to
secure the money. We refrain from Civ
ing names at present, but may be permit
ted to do so In few days.-Reese Riur

RICHMOND AS IT Is.-Among all the
cities of the Confederacy, says cores
pondent of the Columbia South Caroli-
MAN, none can more justly lay claim to
the title of metropolis than its beautiful
Capital. Although invested by hun
bred thousand enemies, whose besieging
guns, morning, noon and night, roar out
their hate although girded around by a
line of battle that may at any moment
burst into flames, such is the faith reposed
in those brave defenders who have 30
often

its edge"
that one may look in vain for sigh of
doubt or trepidation. Day breaks, and
hungry thousands are making their way
to the well filled markets. Later, the
stores open their sleepy lids, and every
window displays tempting goods, that tell
story of busy enterprise and broken
blockades. The restaurants, of which
there are scores kept in style of magnifi-
cent abundance, hang out their venison,
birds and turtle, and expose long shelves
freighted with the choicest liquors, that
tempt the bon Uicant to certain financial
ruin. The hotels and boarding houses
pour forth their living contents, and by
9 o'clock Main street and its tributaries
begin to witness the grand professional
movement, which continues through the
day. Ladies and clerks are vending their
way to their several posts of duty; men
with official business plainly written on
their faces are hurrying in the direction of
the departments mothers. wives and sis
tiers applying for the detail or furlough Of
some loved one, or perhaps eager to hear
the fate of q missing husband, son, or
brother, are also there officers are gal
Looping from the front to bring reports to
the headquarters in town; quartermas-
tiers, with their accustomed energy, are
looking up the days supplies; soldiers
from camp on few hours leave of alb
sence begin to arrive; men on clutches,
hobbling forth from hospital roofs to
breathe the fresh air; the fair sex, attired
with richness and elegance, and raj
ment that you will see no where else in
the Confederacy, add to the attractions of
the street; and thus gathering its contri-
buttons from a thousand channels, the
population out doors grows and diversi-
fies until you find yourself plunged into
one of those cosmopolitan ground swells
that exist only in the great cities Of the
world. By noon the tide is at its food,
and you may elbow the best and the
worst, the highest and the lowest, the
c,roataet and tho neapeat npoDle in the
land. Night comes, and the lights flash
merrily upon thousand parlors, where
reign peace, pleasure and content. Hos
pitality abounds, and with graceful hands
the good citizens dispose its rights, not
more upon themselves than upon the pas
sing stranger, whose only CLAIM may be
that he is a soldier. The transient visitor
has offered to him the temptations of the
theater and concert room, while score of
bells are ready to engulph those whose
baser tastes best fit them for their enjoy
ments. Such is Richmond. 5

The Traitors AsYLuN.-The Duke
de Lime Point, old Gwin, having become
Governor General of Sonora, is preparing
an asylum for all renegade traitors from
the Southern States, California and Ne
vada. We have suspected as much ever
since i, was reported that Gwin had as
sumed official command on our neighbor-
ing territory. By reference to the tele-
graphic dispatches this morning, it will
be seen by the reported interview between
Blair and rebel member of the Cabinet,
that the suspicion was well founded.
When all the chivalry, who are left, after
the rebellion is over, get into Sonora,
California will have to keep look out for
them, as considerable old deyiltry viii
manifest itself whenever an opportunity
offers-such as preying upon her COM
megce, etc.

II is said by a rebel writer that General
Lee is a Christian man. full of the milk of
human kindness, one who has maintained
the mastery over mis- wrath, but who is
capable of terrible things when once fully
aroused. And he adds, Should the
time ever come for him to show the full
depth of his mighty natural passions to-
wards a barbarous foe, who can in no
other way be brought to his senses, de-
pend upon it that he will make not only
the Yankee nation, but the whole enlight-
ened world tremble. God forbid that day
should ever come, but if it should, warn
you there will be shock throughout all
Christendom." So if sensation should
be felt, one of these days, like the shock
of an earthquake, our people may ascribe
the phenomenon to an explosion of Lees
awful fury.

New YORK PoLITIcs.-The country is
in fair way to get an inside view of New
York politics-what with the Andrews
Weed, the Weed Opdyke, and the Sweeny-
Brooks quarrels now under full Roadway
The amount of dirty linen, likely to be
washed and put through the political
clothes-wringer before the final consum.
nation is reached, promises to be enor-
nous. 1t is thought, by some, that ex-
Surveyor Andrews (who owns up to
having been Weeded out of ofhce) has
hung GU. good deal more than he wash
ed, in his late literary onslaught upon
Thurlow; and that, consequently, the
Lobby King will come to time with a
retort that may hoist with his own petard
the adventurous youth whose charges
have been the admiration of the Radicals
On the other side of the political fence
the secrets of the Democratic prison-houst
are coming to the light as the Sweeny'
Brooks libel suit proceeds in its trial
Sweeny's successes, and Brooks over
throw and modification, in the November
election. lend more spicery than balm to
the litigation, and it is expected that the
Recorders court room will be as hot as
the very place where pepper grows, before
Sweeny is satisfied and Brooks effectually
damned up. AS to the other libel suit
between Opdyke and Weed, it looks as
though one was afraid and the other
dare MT; so difficult was it to get the cast
fairly into court and ready to be put upor
trial. There is fine array Of legal talent
of political line retained in the case, and
every prospect of fun ahead.

WAsHoE BEEF AGAIN.-The local editor
of the Enterprise copied our article on the
subject of California butchers coming over
here for fat beef and mutton, and adds to
our remarks the following further interest
ing points: For the last four months
the butchers of Nevada, Grass Valley and
Downieville, California, have been draw
ing their supplies of fat cattle from the
valleys on this side of the mountains, and
and for the past four weeks the butchers
of Marysville and Oroville have been
Obliged to come over to this slope OF the
Sierras for their fat cattle. Thousands OF
cattle have been driven from the valleys
of Nevada this winter to supply the mark
cts of California. For the past three
months the best beef offered for sale in the
San Francisco markets has not been so
good as the poorest in this State. The
reason of this is that owing to the great
drouth in California, no feed could be
found for the vast herds of cattle Of that
State; consequently, great numbers died,
and all were greatly reduced IN flesh. On
the other hand, owing to rains in this
State, the cattle on this side of the noun
tains are fat. A letter from a dealer in
cattle at Marysyille to butcher in. this
city, says there are no sheep in that vicin-
ity able to travel Fifty miles, and that the
beef cattle are worth ten cents per pound
on foot"

FRENCH AND MEXICAN PLANs.-A let
ter from Mazatlan, published in the Bul
letin of last evening, gives some important
rumors regarding the designs of Napoleon
in Mexico, to-wit; The absorption of five
of the Northwestern States of Mexico by
the French Emperor. This is no more
than what has been limited at before, is in
keeping with his character and policy,
and his agent-Gwin-is just the man for
the work. Napoleon never renders a
service that he does not exact his pound
of flesh in pay. He aided the Italians
and took Savoy and Nice in payment.
He has long desired the portions of Mexico
named, quite likely their cession by Maxi
milan was part of the compact lot put
ting the Hapsburg on the throne. Inc
telegraphic hint Of French ana Ma1imlii-
anic intrigues for the absorption OF the
Eve Central American States by the En-
pire of Mexico, NAV also be another clause
in the contract. This accomplished Mex
leo and her Emperor would ieei less tne
loss of the Northern Provinces. mexico
would be a gamer by sucn sAcnanee,
reckoning BY population anu ueretoPeo
wealth, although the loser very essentially
in extent of territory. These Northern
Mexican Provinces have always hung TO
the Central Government only by a slight
tenure, and their loss would not essential
~ weaken it, provided they constituted a
friendly power between her ana 4, the terri
tories of the United States. Inc rather
imposing French feet now operating on
the coast, and the French army forces al
ready engaged in subduing those sroyin-
ces, give force to the rumors named. The
vituperating abuse of the Yankees IN the
Mazatlan Times, would appear TO intimate
also that Gwin. as agent OF the French
Emperor, had determined to poison the
minds Of the inhabitants against our
Northern people and the Federal Govern
ment, in order to pave the way ior the
new South intended to be therein built
up, where ''chivalry" and slavery are to
obtain new lease Of life. and the "pecu-
liar institution" with its cotton blessings,
