Why Natchez was Arrested.

The arrest and imprisonment OF the
Pluto Chief. Natchez. appears to have
been M indefensible rs his subsequent
release from imprisonment without
any explanation or stonement. Is UNI
worthy OF civil or military authority.
N he speaks the truth-and he has the
credit from those who have long known
him, Of being n man OF truth-thc
reason Of his arrest may be assumed TO
have been that he knew too much for
the good Of the Indian Agents v e
the mountains. He says that Bsteman,
the Agent. told him that he drew for
the Piutes on the Truckee Reservation,
rations from Government for five hun
dred Indians. Natchez laughed and
told him that he lBatemsn) knew that
there were not more than sixty In.
dians OIL that Reservation. men, women
and children. lie says that Bateman
makes return for six thousand FLUTES
a. under his charge, while there are
not over seven hundred Piutes la ex-
istencs.
Ns,chex says that during the Sum-
mer only Y men. blind men. re-
main on the Truckco Reservation.
All the rest go on, hunting. But Bate
man draws the same amount all the
time. viz ive hundred rations, and
that he distributes little or nothing /;
that having on n occasion dlstribut.
cd six or seven blankets, lie made the
Indians p1y him for them by working
on his farm. >0f course, this Il only
one side Of the question, and Is the tes-
timony Of only an Indian. However,
the representations Of Satchcz corre-
spond with the general system Of the
Indian Ring. As Natchez says, they
wrong the Government and they
wrong the Indians. They cheat both,
and truth and honesty generally do
not abide with them.-S. r. Alta.

The thirteen large volumes published
last year and known a. the "kuklux

by the Joint Committee on Southern
Outragss together with the various re-
ports, were printed at the public ex-
perse, and at q great cost. Every
member Of Congress was entitled to
twenty sets OF this report or 2G0 vol.

to, was bright enough to see that no
Democrat would care to send the
documents to his constituents, and 90
he went TO each Democratic member

his thousands of volumes. These he

The Bodies of the Twins Taken to Philas
delphia.
dispatch from Richmond, Virginia,
says the scientific medical commission from
Philadelphia arrived at Mount Arey, Sat
urday: On last Sunday consultation was
had with the wives of the Siamese twins,
which resulted in obtaining consent to the
proposition of the commission on condition
and with the distinct understanding that
the bodies should not be mutilated. A
commissioner repaired to the cellar. where
the remains OF the twins were, and opened
the coffin and then removed the inner
coffin to the room above. The bodies are in
good order.
Chang's features are partially discolored;
those of Eng being natural. The widows
then entered the room and took final
farewell of the remains and left them to
the doctors. A partial examination was
then had which was followed by q con-
sultation. A partial embalmment of the
bodies was then perfOrmed; they were once
more covered in coffin, securely soldered
IN tin box, again boxed, and after obtain
ing the consent of the widows, removed to

The Affair mt Trinidad.
4 private letter from Havana says the8

general uprising Of negroes and burning Of
plantations.
Preparing to Gross tho TrOchN.
The opinion prevails that the insurgents
will soon be able to cross the old Trocha in
comparatively large force. Heretofore
they have been able occasionally to cross in
small parties. Should they succeed in cross
ing in large numbers the burning of plantss
tons is inevitable.
Secret Organization.
A secret organization is thought to exist
with ramifcatiOns extending to all parts Of
the island, the object of which is to give
moral and material support to insurgents,
who, if successful in their operations in
central and eastern departments, will en-
deavor to pass into the Villas district.
