The sleux rrea1,.

After the most patient negotiation
with the Sioux delegations on the part
Of the President, Secretary Delano and
Indian Commissioner Smith, the
much talked Of treaty, securing the
surrender of the Indians right to
hunt im Northern Wyoming and Ne
braska, has failed. President Grant,
who has taken great interest in this
matter, did all In his power to accom-
piish the desired result His manner
and bearing towards the Indians was
kind and forbearing in the extreme.
He took o than usual pains to ex-
plain everything 10 them in the most
simple manner, and treated them in
such a fatherly way as to leave no
cause for complaint. Even when they
had wearied the other officials with
their shifting and prevarication, the
President used such extraordinary
and unexpected patience rs TO call for
expressions Of praise eve from the
Indians; and Commissioner Smith,
who has had great experience with
Indians, says hat he never saw the
President appear to better advantage
as when he listened to and talked with
these wild children of the plains. But
he was compelled after two hours
labor to give up the whole thing in
disgust. The Indians gave one ex-
cuse and then another until the close
of the talk, and it became apparent
that they would not sign the treaty.
Two great reasons, why they would
not sign II, are given first is their
superstition against signing any ohli-
CATION ; and, second, the differences
which exist among the several bands
of the Sioux.

DIR. Saville, before leaving Washing
ton, received information from Red
Cloud Agency, stating that the Indians
there reported several large war parties
approaching the agency, and that the
troops had several times started out
after them, but had been unsuccessful
in making any captures. 1t was also
added that there was every indication
that the military, from their frequent
offensive movements, would surely
bring on hostilities.

The capture by the Indians of Mr..
Harper's herd of horses neal Laramie
city, is the beginning, no doubt, of a
series of depredations which we shall
have to record during the coming
season. The lives and property of our
citizens will not be safe, until every
Indian is removed by force to his re-
servation in Dakota, or sent by gentle
persuasion to the happy hunting
grounds. There are but ve-y few good
Indians in this section of the country,
and they ought to be sent to Barnum
for safety, at once.

Sitting Bull, the Sioux chief who
protected Red Cloud Agency last year
against an attack OF the Minnecon-
jous, Mt the time an attempt was made
TO raise the stars and stripes Mt the
Agency, has been presented by Presi-
dent Grant with a fine breach-loading
rifle, nicely mounted ana enclosed in
a leather case. On the brass mount
ings surrounding the lock is engraved
the following "To Sitting Bull, from
the President, for bravery and friend
ship"
Indian Commissioners Smith, on
Saturday last, invited the Chief to his

"I have heard with great pleasure OF
your conduct and of the conduct of
one or two Others of the Red Cloud
Agency. I have heard from your
agent and from the military officers at
the agency, of the great service you
have rendered the government. You
have proved yourself to be a very

ident, and 1 am instructed by him to

A. |....n...
Although the visit of the Sioux
chiefs tn Washington has up to the
present proved a failure, it has had no
effect upon the influx of would-be
Black Killers into Cheyenne. Still
they come!
The Directors of the Central Pacific
Railroad went west yesterday in a
special car.
The excavation is going on at the
eorn of 18th and Ferguson streets,
aud the foundations for the new brick
block to be erected will be commenced
in a few days. This will be a marked
improvement in this portion of the
city. go. -..
Mr.. ]. Banks, proprietor of the
American House, informs us that his
hotel is constantly crowded. Mr..
Leighton, the gentlemanly superin-
tendent, will see to the wants of his
guests. Give him a call.
We desire to correct the statement
in yesterdays issue, that Capt. H. E.
Palmer was the general agent for the
New York Insurance Company. 1t
Is the Home" of New York, which
he represents a company well and
favorably known throughout the west.

1t begins TO look as if Gov. Allen had "lsea up

1t would be strange if some of the States do moi
get the right SOFT Of democratic platforms; they
all differ.
Three independent papers i'll Ohio have within
week inserted the names Of the republican can
didates at the head of their editorial columns.
The Cincinnati Commercial remarks that it Is
the greybaeks currency that is called for by the
platform of the Ohio democracy.
1t is conjectured that the wide difference be-
tween the democratic State platforms is to see ii
they cannot get one at least right. They have
thlty-seyen chances, but have not made hit yet.
The Chicago Tribune thinks that Horatio Sey-
mour is right in declining all Presidentiil solicta-
tons henccforth, for "when the great American
people sit down upon man once lie ought to
keep still forever after
Parson Brownlow nfers from the facts that the
republican party is what it was in 1870, that the
democratic party has come around to republican
positions little at a time; that the republican
party is right, and always has been.
An Indiana paper wants to hear no more about
Z. B. Washburne, or any other Illinois man, Tor
the Presidency, because that State will have had
that office, excepting Johnson's sem-term, sixteen
years, "and it is time for her to rest
