thousand will be on the northern from

A Paris correspondent of the Times,
writing on the 10th, says that there
seems to be a glimmer of hope that,

The INDIAN TROUBLES. casual
reader has, probably, not fully compre-
hended the nature of the difficulties with
the Indians in our Western States and
Territories. The extent of these troubles
may, however, be inferred from the fact re-
ported by the Secretary of War to the House
OF Representatives, in answer to a resolution
of inquiry, that the total amount expended
for the suppression of Indian hostilities, FOR
the year 1864 and 1865, is $50, 100000.
