A correspondent under date of Camps
Arrapahoes Cheyenne Indians, in Bluff
creek, south Arkansas River, March I'd,
writes me that Major +. w. Wynkoop's
mission to the hostile Indians has been
an entire success. He has succeeded in
getting them all below the Arkansas
River, and procured from their Chiefs
and headmen an agreement to abide by
the provisions of the treaty made ut the
mouth of the Little Arkansas in October
last, thus putting an end to all Indian
troubles, and making travel across the
plains perfectly safe.
Gen. Gustav gives rather gloomy ac-
count of political affairs in Texas. There
; is little if any loyalty outside our lines,
and if our troops We're withdrawn the.e
would be none anywhere. Greenbacks
are but seldom acknowledged to have
any value, and gold and silver are their
circulating mediums. In many places
greenbacks will not buy food or fuel.

The Richmond Repubi: begs South
erners not to emigrate to Brazil or to
Mexico. It says: 1T would he easy
to understand that freedmen should de-
sire to emigrate to those countries, for
not only is the climate suited to their
constitution, but the is no prcjud:ces
against their color. They have the right
Of suffrage They possess a certain
amount Of property, and are eligible to
seats in the Legislature and high official
positions. It is an odd idea, certainly,
for people to leave the South from an
apprehension that negroes will be ad-
mitted to political equality, aud go to
countries where they have that equality
already, and emigrating whites may
find black officials over their heads.
