POISONED ARRows.-A writer in Har.
pcr's Magazine tells how the Indians poi.
son their arrows:
A rallesnake is caught and penned.
He is made angry by being poked with
sticks, when piece Of deer liver is held
toward him on the end Of a stick. Into
this he strikes his fangs. The liver is
then Withdrawn, and piece Of dogwood
about four inches long, carefully sharpen
ed, IS thrust into the ircslon made by the
fangs. The stick is permitted TO dry for
a short time, when it is dipped into glu'
linous solution, which, drying hermeical-
~ seals the poison, which would other
wise decomPose. This piece Of dogwood
is used at the head Of the arrow. To be
wounded with such an arrow is almost
certain death.

New YoRK, Sept. 1.-THE Times
special says: In a nutshell, General
Sickles' violation of the laws was this:
he issued AN order which was in effect
stay, and postponed the collection of
debts by the action of the State courts
in this district for certain time. The
order was evaded very generally by
means of the transfer of the said debts
from the citizens of North and South
Carolina, to the citizens ofother States,
thus throwing their causes Of action
into the United States Courts, which
were open. General Sickles' order No.
10 forbade the execution OF judgments
! thus obtained.
The Worlds special says: Returns
from the Internal Revenue department
here, show a falling OF of fifteen mil
lion dollars in revenue for two months
past rs compared with the returns for
a corresponding period last year.
Notwithstanding the close reticence
of Gen. Grant, an officer who has daily
interviews with him, has Informed US
that he has expressed himself privately
against unqualified negro suffrage.
| This fact is corroborated by leading
radicals, who declare they will not take
him for President unless he comes out
square on the question.
The Herald's Washington special
says: In relation to the forthcoming
amnesty proclamation that those who
| are supposed to know something ofthe
Presidents intentions, say that pardons
| will be granted to all classes of ex-rebels
except those guilty of piracy and cruel
treatment to Union soldiers. This am
nesty will restore all parties concerned
to all civil rights, except those taken
away by acts OF Congress. r.,. .

WASHINGTON, Sept. l.-Some facts
compiled from official documents are
published, which throw additional
light upon our Indian troubles. Letters
from Generals Grant, Hancock and
others, written some time ago, made 1t
appear that the savages were bent upon
war, and had no honest intention of
keeping at peace with the settlers.
They sent numerous threats to the
agents, ordered the military not TO cut
wood and wound up by sending in a
message requesting the removal of the
soldiers or they would help them to
leave the country. The Indians also
expressed their decided determination
not to permit the construction OF a rail-
road through their grounds. Upon
Gen. Hancock moving his force among
them, the impression prevailed that he
had come to murder them and destroy
their villages. The compilation closes
with an account of numerous murders
and depredations committed by the red
skins.
General Hancock, in his testimony
before the Indian Commissioners, is
very decided in his opinion that seri-
Gus war exists, and even declares his
belief that If the troops were withdrawn
not "A white man would remain in Col
.orado, and the great highways to the
Pacific would all be closed. The In
with the best modern weapons, even
making use of spy-glasses. The ex-
penses of the general department have
thus far been substantially those of a
peace enlistment. He places the num-
Der ofhostile Indians engaged, between
Arkansas and the Platte, at 5000 or
20, 600.

much time without good and sufficient
excuse.

charge of one-half of the clerical force

office, the order to take effect this week.
The number thus thrown out of en-
ployment is twenty. -. 20

tions for the removal of the Custom
