by District Attorney l.anham,
by our icllOw.townsman,
WNSIcConncll, Esq, to whose
indie tigablo energy, is due the
speedy trial of these mamuding
savugcs. In the trial OF Satanta,
Mr.. I.anham was assisted by Capt.
G.. l.. Jordan, or "Charlcy Jordan"
us all OF us boys call him.
The evidence was 50 clear that
there was but little necessity of II
long argument. Mr.. Lanham in
closing for the prosecution and re-
viewing the arguments for the de-
fence, bccamca ut once sa,iracal and
iacot;ous, aud so ridicu!cd the At
torncy'S argument for the defence
as to create the only lcvity that had
bccn shown during the trial.
After the jury had returned their
verdict in the case OF Satanta, his
Honor, Judge Seward, said that he
telt it his.du,y to petition the Gov
rrnor, to have the sentence commu-
ted to imprisonment in the pcnitcn-
tiary for life. i; 81
After the reading Of the sentence
by Judge Seward, Satanic, through
interpreter doucs, stated that this
MAS bis first trip to Texas, and if
permitted to return to the Rcsor-
vntion. he never would make any
more raids on this country. He.
also said, that he now believed there
WAS no use in making war with
Texas, MS his people was not able
to fight them. They arc still con.
fined by the Military Mt tho Fort,
where they will remain till the first
Friday in September, whom they
ARE to chang by the neck until they
are dead" K i
This afternoon Col. Mckenzie

and rations for 60 days. llc in
tends establishing in the mountains
IL temporary camp and leave the
Infantry in charge, while he scours
the country with his Cavalry, re-
turning only when supplies are
needed. 1t is believed the Colonel
will not hesitate to follow the In
dians right into the reservation. God
i,less and protect him, say we all,
here.
