We have seen many and published several
notices fiom the Eastern press of this party,
who have been doing the great cities for
the past two months. The following report
Of their interview with the President we find
in the Washington Star: .s .'.-. .. r..
After our report OF the interview of the
Grand River Indian delegation with the
President closed on Saturday last, the Teton
Sioux party were introduced by General
Cowen, Assistant Secretary of the Interior,
and a council with the Great Father took
place. Medicine Bear, Chief of the Teton
Sioux, opened the "big talk" with a speech
very similar to the one he recently delivered
before the Secretary of the Interior; but be-
fore doing so he laid his huge calumet on the
mantel-piece, and, after removing his feather
head-dress, deliberately proceeded to unshirt
himself, to the no small astonishment of the
pale faces present. After divesting himself
of his neither garment he advanced toward
the President, and, holding it aloft, was
about to put it over the Great Fathers head,
when General Cohen took hold of 1t, and,
placing it on chair, told Medicine Bear,
through the interpreter, that the Great Father
would not wear it just then, but would &C
cept it as a proof of his (Medicine Bear's)
good will. 1t seems that it was Medicine
Bears war shirt, adorned, in which he had
lifted the hair of many hapless enemy, and
that he desired to present it to the Great
Father in token Of the estimation in which
he held him as the big chief of the pale
faces. Among the Teton Sioux, and in fact
among many other Indian tribes, similar gar
mcnts are highly priced, fabulous value being
set upon, them by the wearers. General
Coweu accompanied the delegations to the
depot yesterday morning, and shaking each
man by the hand bade him goodbye. They
invited the General 10 come up the Missouri
next fall and see them, and said they would
treat him well. In his speech at the White
House, Medicine Bear told the President thai
General Cowen belonged to him, (meaning
that he held him in great esteem,O and that
