WASHINGTON.
Murphy has a Hard Tims-.-Indians---Ex-
elusive Right to Catch seaIs---AddltIOnal
currsney for Southern and Westera
States.


WASHINGTON, July s.-The oppO-
sition to Murphy for Collector of the
port of New York is among the sup
porters of the President that have no
interest in Fenton. The aspect of the
fight is giving way under the convic-
ton that it is politically unwise to
make a fight which would only en-
bitter the feelings of both parties.
But vigorous opposition is by no
means wanting. The difficult circum-
stance which Murphy win have to
meet in the Senate viii be the proof
of his support of Governor Hoffman
in 1862. IF the Senate can be con-
WINGED that this was an overt act OF
party disloyalty he will be rejected,
otherwise he viii be confirmed. The
opinion last evening was in his favor.
The Indian delegation had con-
sultatiOn with Commissioner Parker

NEWS FROM FORT SILL.
The kiOwas, CheyeHnss and ComsHChes OF
the War PatR-ParticElars Of the
0Btrages Committed.

The Indians north and northwest
of Texas are in open war with the
whites. Cheyennes, KiOWas and Co
manches have combined. Their frs
hostile demonstration was made on
the lst of June at Fort Sill, where
they captured and afterWard killed
one Barnard. On the 18th ult. they
drove away from Fort Sill seventy
mules. They were pursued by Cap.
tain Walsh $50 miles, but escaped
among herds Of countless bufialoes, on
upper Red river. On the 22d of last
month they attacked several trains,
and killed two men and wounded one
nortally. The men killed are named
VIM. Hall, of Kansas City, and Mex
lean Jose. The latter was scalped
The wounded man is named Levi
Lukins. He was shot within fifty
yards of the Ki0wa and Comanche
Agency. On the night of the 22d q
dash was made on the post by In
dians, who tried to drive off some
stock. They were repulsed and scat
tered.
on the 23d of June a train was at.
tackled on the Texas road, fifteen
miles from the post, and one man,
named Charles Henderson, from Hi
nois. killed. The bodies of tAe men
Killed were taken TO Fort Sill and
buried.
Parties were sent in pursuit OF the
Indians after each of these outrages,
but they would take to the noun
tains and scatter, and could not be
oveTtaken.
Satauk, the Kiowa chief, is the re
puted prime leader in all the mis-
chief. Friend Tatum, the COmanche
and Kiowa agent. has strong guard
at his agency, and has asked General
GFierson. to arm all his employees,
which has been done.
1t is presumed now that the Indian
war has been inauguFated in the
Kiowa and Comanche country, that
Texas will suffer greatly from the In
roads of hostile bands. 1t is believed
that an expedition will be fitted out
and start soon from Fort Sill TO pun
ish these marauders.
