ChesapenEe and Ohio Railroad


A fow days ago we reprinted from tbs
Richmond Enquirer statement Chat
the Chesapeake and Ohio road was
about to be purchased by the Pennsyl-
vauia Central. We find in the Charles
ton Republican of the 2l~t inst, note
from Mr.. II. C. PARSONS, one of the
directors of the Chesapeake and Ohio,
which we subjoin:
On STEAMER KANAwHA BELLE,
April Goth, 1869. 5
MeSsrS. Editors:
According to promised hasten to in
form you of the prospect of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railroad.
1t might be improper for me to speak
in detail of the negotiations now pend
ing, but can say that for the first time
since the organization of our Company,
am confident of the quick completion
of the road.
If built under the proposed arrange
ment, from twelve to twenty millions
will be raised for and expended on the
| line. Yours. very respectfully,
II. CHESTER PARSONS.
The pending negotiations" we pre-
sumo, are the same as those referred TO
by the Richmond Enquirer. If these
indications prove correct, and the Penn
sylvania Central becomes the purchaser
of the Chesapeake and Ohio, we may
look not only for the speedy completion
ofthe latter road, but also for the build
ing of a road to connect the two. The
Importance of aa enterprise like the last
named cannot be too highly estimated.
Bisecting West Virginia North and
South, it will open up an immense and
valuable portion of country now com
pletely cut off from market, and do
more for enriching the State than any
other Improvement contemplated.

noticed that everything was prepared
for flight and CUstar thinks that had
he then attacked them with his fatig-
ued troops, he could not have effected
faole than a capture Of their lodges.
CJstar 6rdered the aFrest0 two chiefs.
Big Head and Gull KNIFE, Intending
to hold them under guard as hostages
for the white women captives. After
considerable paFleying and only when
the rope and tree were chosen. did the
Indians deliver up their captives.
The story of their treatment told by
these eaptives is a recital of such bar
barous eruelties and enormous indig-
hities, that It is surprising that civil
lied beings scOuld endure and survive.
The Indians would have killed them
had the village been attacked. The
Indians express themselves heartily
sick Of the war, and are willing to go
to that part of the country which has
been designated for them, and are
ready TO submit to the decision Of the
Government authorities.
Gen. Custar says: We have taught
the Indians that they are safe from US
! in no place aitd &c nc sedsOn and also
what some Of our own people may
doubt, that the white man can endure
! the inclemeneies of winter better than
can the indians. He says also that
the country and the hiding places OF
the Indians are now better known,
and that he has many officers in his
command who could conduct an eX-
/ petition there without guides.
The General speaks highly of his
officers and men, and he especially
compliments the 10th Kansas Caval-
Try.
7 The General did not lose q single
man of his command. He concludes
his report with the following words
1 now hold the captive Cheyenne
chiefs as hostages for the good behay-
iOr of their tribe, and for the fulfill.
ment of the promise of the latter tC
come in and conform to the demand:
of the Government. This / consider
is the end of the Indian war.

ST. LOUIS, April 2.
A long report was received at mill
tary headquarters this morning from
General Custar, detailing his opera
tions in the field after breaking camp
at Medicine Bluff Creek. Fresh signs
of Indians were discovered on the 18th
of March, and the whole command,
numbering 1900 men moved forward
rapidly, making daily marches two or
three times as long as those Of the In
dians. Tents were burned and all
blankets except one per man, and all
surplus clothing STARED the same fate.
On tile 18th they reached a camp
ground which had been abandOned
only two days BEFORE About the same
time herd of ponies III charge of two
Indians was discovered. Gen. Custar
determined to capture the herd, and
after proceeding some two miles, saw
the Indians partially concealed be-
hind the sand hills. After good deal
Of signalling. eight OF them cane out,
from whom Gen. Eustar learned that
260 Cheyenne lodges we're encamped
within ten or twelve miles, 200 of
which were directly in front on a
small stream. Medicine Arrow, the
Chief of the Cbeyennes and several
other noted chiefs then rode up.
! Among the two hundred lodges were
those of. the Dog soldiers, the most
mischieVOus, blcod- thirsty and bar
barous band of Indians that infest Che
plains. Gen. Custar first intended tc
attack this village, butwhen heIeaTn-
ed the Cheyennes held two white fe-
made Gaptivesy Mrs. Morgan and Miss
White, he concluded not to DO SO, al
least until he had these women out OF
the hands OF the savages. He there.
fore went with Medicine Arrow te
his lodge in the eentreof the villsge

At Andrew JOhnson's reception at

lows!
FeLLOt0 Citizens! In appearing before
you, after so long an absence, the re-

There is no place like home. The pO-

Who never to lri1nselfhath s8idi
4 This is my own, my native land!
He spoke of the time, now far back
in personal past, when yet young, he
had come to Greenville. He said he
had always relied upon the people of
| GreenVille, and had never been disap-
pointed. Step by step he had gone
the official found. Greenville had
given him the first office he had filed,
in 1885, as Alderman, and next May
or. He then mentioned all the stic-
cessiVe offices through which he had
| passed up to the Presidency, in all of
/ which he had received their support
| He spoke of his career as President.
He had tried to discharge his duty
regardless of the consequence to him
self, and he must there be permitted
to say, after going all the round of Of
fetal trust, Unparalleled in history,
that he was proud TO be able to conf
IDENTIFY ask; SAT whose hands have /
ever received a bribe," throughout
this whole routine? I challenge any
and all eelHhinatcrs Of mine to place
their fingers Upon q single stain iipon

can look this audience in the face and
ask, whom have I betrayed? Z? Whom

( He said Ire had no intention to make
a speech. On returning to their midst,
into the ranks of American citizen
Eship, he desired to show his willing
ness to bear the bonds now resting up
on them. He felt more honor in his
present position than he would feel

had no purpose to talk politics. f-
He concluded with a renewal of his

Tenure-Of-Omce Question.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 27.-
A couple Of New York CUngressmen,
who called on the President last eve
ming, report him as saying he regret
ted the action of the House, in reject
ing the Senate modification of the
tenure-Of-Office act. He seemed quite
anxious to learn what the Senate
would probably do on Monday about
the matter, and when told that il
might perhaps agree to its suspension
till 1873, he said that modification
would be better than suspension. He
stated that he had informed many
pers0tis that the bill rs fixed by the
Senate was entirely satisfactory to
him.
He said: at am perfectly willing
the Senate should pass upon all re-
mOvals. l want to make the Senate
more interested than / am in removal
made on party grounds, and from the
way I am pressed to make such re-
mOvals, 1 should think the Senate
would be more than ready to agree to
all do in that direction. When il
comes to the removal Of Republicans
She case is somewhat different; but ]
think we would haYe no seriou;
! trOuble.n =
He then asked if the House would
not yet agree with the Senate, anC
when the gentleman answered they
/ thought not, he made some further
remarks expressive of regret at the ap-
parent dead lock. He said General
Butler had been there, and Il told
him, f" the President continued, 'just
as I had others, that the Senate bill
fleft me as free as 1 cared to be-" The
conYentiOn on this topic closed with
the remark by the President that he
hoped the matter would be settled in
some way, without much more diff.
