The Washington Chronicle of june Is
has report of 40 interview between
Red Cloud and Secretary Cox. The
big injun's' speeches a.e given in full
except AS follows:
When Red Cloud had concluded the
Secretary said:
want to say to Red Cloud and his
people that be made mistake when he
said that ne had never received any pay
for his land. The things that were
promised in the treaty, such as food,
clothing, farming utensils. seed, &c,
we're regarded rs part ply for his lands.
Land is good for two things, besides liv-
ing on it: The first is to let wild game
grow on it, aud for man to live by hunt
ing that game the second thing it is
good for is to plow it up and get things
out of it, as we do, and to raise cattle
On it.
Here Red Cloud made an ejaculation
which could not be interpreied in the
presence of ladies. The Secretary re-
sumed:
Now We have great curiosity to know
what this ''noble Red man" said which
was not capable of an Interpretation ain
the presence Of ladies'"

Of . registered list Of 339-giving clear
majority Of Dbl in favor Of the location at
Reno. Glendale gave Reno . maturity OF

falls On their own shoulders, and we have no

til after the meeting Of the next Legislature,
a. the officers of the Court decline to work
without fees.
THIS statement of the situation is cal.
eulated TO lead TO a miSapprebension OF
the actual facts. The matter stands
thus The Clerk of the District Court
for this county and the Sheriff have al
ready performed the services requisite to
putting the case, in due form, iuto court,
whirh fact appears through their sworn

being held necessary to the proper pre-
eenta,iou of their accounts for pay ment.
These bills, made under oath, being
presented to the Controller, he exam ned
the statutes under which be is acting
and found that, according to his inter
probation of the laws made and provid.
ed, no appropriation exists ayains'
which be has the authority TO draw his
warrants. We understand that the At.
torney General has given it as his op;n
ion (oraIIy) that the Controller is au-I
thorized to draw bis warrants in favor
of these bills, BY the following clause in
the Appropriation Act of March 1869
..For prosecuting delinquent. for infr.ction |
Of revenue laws, 70 be expended under the i
direction Of the Controller. two thous and |

The Controller, however, holds to the |
opinion that this is a specific appropria-
ton made for an entirely different pur
pose than the payment Of costs arising
out of . suit against the sureties of n
State officer sud be declines acting upon i
the advice ofthe Attorney General. We
incline to think the Controller is right /;
for while the eureties of the late SAFE
Treasurer cannot we'll be said to be, a
such, "Ielinquents for infrac,ion of rev.
saue laws" it is veil understood that
this appropriation of two thousand dol
ssrs was made TO enable the Controller
70 enforce . compliance with the State
Stamp Act.
As to the case against the bon1sren,

there can be TO its being proceeded with
for the "papers" are already served

The general bill for the removal of political
disabilities reported by Butler from the Recon-
structlon Committee. provides that all per
sons affected by the Fourteenth amendment,
except officers who have been in the army
and navy, and those who have served in the
Senate or House OF Representatives, are re-
lieved from their disabilities on taking an
oath OF future loyalty, and making application
TO the United States District Court. This ap-
plication is to remain on file for thirty days,
and then, irno valid objection be made, the
nudge is to issue all order relieving said appli-
cant, byvirtuc of the act of Congress, Of all
the pains aud penalties Of disfranchisement.
The objection must show cause, supported by
evidence, why the disabilities Of the party ap-
plying should not be removed, and the judge
is authorized to exercise his discretion in the
matter Tie bill besides provides that the re-
moyal of disabilities shall not affect property
lost, captured or destroyed by the army of the

estate of said company is being partitioned IN
most summary way, and turned over to 9 set
of strange capitalists, whose agents are among
US, purchasing up the stock before the share
holders are aware of what is going on. 1t is a

it Is said, without the knowledge of the presi-
