ON THE WAR PATH,
Conouering Bear Meets a Pavuee.

ConQuerlnS Dear MeeLS FaWneo'
Corquerlng Bear, one Of the seceders who left
the fremont house and took up his quarters at
thr Washington hotel, is the coming genius Of
the crowd. Many of his comrades will get up at
night TO hear his funny comments on our insti-
buttons, customs and habits. But he drinks. He
Just thinks fire water was distilled from joy and

back again, singing:
"I'II swim the sea of slaughter

He was on 1t terribly. His blood was up as far
as il could get under a very high pressure, and
nothing would satisfy him but the scalp lock OF
the PaWnee. He spurred the horse, and shook
the tom ahaWk with increasing vigor.

A party of Sioux moved over to the Washing

Bear, American Horse, Conquering Bear, Grow

rior, Gen. COWan, notified the proprietor Of the
Washington house that the Government would
pay ne bills contracted by the Indians at his
house. If they refuse to return to the fremont
house they will probably be allowed to remain
until the arrival Of Commissioner Smith, whose
return from New York is looked for to-day. The

PASTORS, ASSOCIATION.

The Question of Converts from Methodism.
The Pastors Association held q meeting yes
terday, and there were about twenty-five minis
tiers present. Among other business transacted
was the consideration Of 3 paragraph, which ap-
pasred in the Washington papers, to the effect
that during the confirmation tour Of Archbishop
Bailey there were sixty-nine converts from the
Methodist Church. A report was presented which
showed that the matter had been thoroughly in
VestiEatcd and It was found that instead Of sixty
nine converts there were only three, and that
about that time ten members Of the Catholic
Church had come over to the Methodist Church.
DR.. PitiZer, secretary Of the Bible Society of
the District OF Columbia, reported that there was
great restitution in the District for the want of
Bibles. The report caused some discussion rs to
the best means to remedy this deficiency, after
which the meeting adjourned.
