Omaha. Among the party were Generals Harney,
Sherman, Sheridan, Augur, Terry, and Coonels Tap

the forks Of the Platte river, where they met the
chiefs OF the Sioux. council was held and he was
charmed with the bearing OF those indians. When
he saw those sioux, their Chiefs warriors, squaws
and papooses; when he heard their speeches and
looked around and saw the whites among them,
ne considered that of the two the whites should have
been called the savages and they the civilized. Hav
ing talked with General Aarney and Kit Carson and
having heard the testimony from their own ps tnat
mad broken Their treatIes with the lndans
that the whites the aggressors by the acts Of de-
iraudng contractor. aud a enls he could not blame
