Secretary Delano has concluded 10 sus-

the recomme ndations of Gen. ingalls,, CON-

The President has issued proclamation

As the visit of the Sioux TO Washington to
negotiate with the Government for the relin-
quishment of their possession Of the Black
Hills has proved a failure, and As the Indians
left there much dissatisfied, difficulties are
apprehended between them and such whites
who may enter their country for the purpose
of seeking gold. Ii is estimated by agents that
the Sioux can muster from 5000 to 5000 war
riors. about half armed with rifles and the
remainder with bows and arrows. The
Government meantime will endeavor 10 pre-
vent adventures from going to that country,
still having some hope through the medium
of the Commissioners TO effect treaty with
the Sioux. These statements are made in
a recent semi-oficial dispatch from Wash
ington.

One of the saddest instances of the
cruel tyranny of bigotry occurred late
ly in Reading, Southwestern Ohio. A
young woman, Anna Brown, had
been keeping company" witha Young
man named Bernard Lichtenbcrg, and
the supposition of their friends and
associates was that marriage en-
gagemcnt existed. 1t was known,
however, that the parents of the young
man, they being Romanists, were
strongly opposed to the match, Miss
Brown being a Protestant. Matters
went on for year ormorc, the young
mancontinuing hissttcntions and appar
emily being very much attached to her.
He, however, coniided to one of his
associates that his relatives gave him
no peace because he kept company
with Protestant girl, and he finally
told Anna he could not continue his
visits. A day or two after Miss Brown
committed suicide, leaving note for
Lichtenberg saying she died of bro
ken heart, as her troubles were too
great for her to bear. III die of love
for you without you cannot live
On the inquest the young man was a
witness. and testified that he told her
that he could not marry her because no
was o "Catholic," and he could not
marry ont of the church. That was
the only reason. lie told her he must
keep away from her because all his
family and relatives were down on

last winter for parliamentary ability
for his ultimate success.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE unan.
imous report to the Commission ex-
onerates Agent Saville, and declares
that the charges against him arc mean
in spirit and origin. 1t says that some
of the ailidavits which seem to reflect
most upon the character of the agents
were such partial statements that they
amounted to culpablc suppresio ceri,
and some of the testimony on which
wcrc based the most damaging attacks
upon their administration was the tos-
timony of a well known descrter and
thief. The facts cited to tho discredit
of the agents which were cleaned at
the agencies during their absence, and
which they then had no opportunity
to account for, were. when brought to
their notice, satisfactorily explained.
In the peculiar circumstances in
which these Indians were placed ir-
| regular practices were shown to be
unavoidable, and apparently SUSPECT
Gus actions were shown to have been
characterized by entire good faith, and
| arc shown to have been mistakes of
men now in Office, and who could learn
| only from experience. The Commits
sion endorse the action of these agents
in all material points.
Respecting the charge against Sec
rotary Delano, of completely with
frauds at Red Cloud Agency, the
Commissioners says it is but the
simplest act of fairness for him to
state that he has no knowledge of any
such completely on the part of that Of
ficer, and knows of nothing that tends
to show it. On the contrary, so far az
he knows, the action of the Secretary
in all matters pertaining to Red Cloud
| Agency during the present year has
been only the ordinary official routine
action of the Department upon matters
submitted by the Indian Office, gener-
ally approving the suggestions of the
Commissioner, and never in any way
debating, or even making suggestions
as to purchases, contracts or pccuniary
transactions of any sort.

this district. A gentleman offers q
book for mail transmission to phila-

to compel the Postmaster to receive
the package. The argument Of the
applicant IL that the Sundry Civil APP
preparation Bill, into which the
amendment increasing the rate on Sd
class mail matter was inserted, was
not hill for raising Revenue: that
tho amendment provided way and
means for raising revenue; ead that
the Senate has no constitutional au-
thority to originate a measure for that
purpose, that being the sole privilege
OF the House, and that the postage
amendment having originated with
the Senate and cDgrafted on the bill,
which was not ono for revenue pur-
poses, is unconstitutional.

John II. Realty, while associated

The history OF his association with

reason why he did not succeed. We
recollect well that his habits at that
time were urged strongly and effect
uaily against him. He was not deemed
proper or safe representative of re.
publican principles in office. He Ia
bored for Office among Republicans
and failed. He became surfeited will,
failures and sought revenge and hon.

the Commissioner of Indian Affairs
as in collision with the perpetrators OF
wrongs towards the Indians. The
Professor does this in letter to tho

ciferously. Commissioner Smith re-
plies briefly and tartly, saying that a
Commission was long ago appoin ted
to thoroughly investigate the charges
made by Prof. March, of which Bishop
Hare is Chairman that so far as is as.
certained at present the Professors in

thief, and that If he had only had
the patience to await the result of the
investigation, he would doubtless be
thoroughly satisfied of the iuiustice in
his haste he is committing upon the
officers of the Interior Department
The report of that Commission made
three days ago entirely exonerates all
the officers, and Prof. Marsh can now
see how foolish he has been.
