THE INDIANS.
The Strength of the Sioux.

AAO StAC1Afsth VI thO SAooAs
New YORK, July 18.-The Herald has the
following special:
Bismarck, Dakota, July 17.-No Indians
have appeared in this locality since the battle,
except small parties, undoubtedly friendly,
passing to and from the agencies.
Rumors of hostile intentions have grown out
Of the fact that 20 lodges Of agency Indians
are located where the Black Hills train from
Bismarck crosses the Cannon Ball, but these
Indians are we'll known to be friendly, and are
located on the reservation. There is no cause
to apprehend danger to settlements east of the
Missouri river. but the frontier settlements in
Nebraska, Wyoming and more particularly
those of Montana, are in danger, unless the
war is pushed vigorously.
Sherman and Sheridan certainly under
estimate the strength of the hostile Indians.
Sitting Bulls band, before it was joined by
Crazy Horse, numbered 1900 lodges, and over
5000 effective fighting men, and Crazy Horse
has proved strong enough to defeat Crook in
every engagement, without the aid of Sitting
Bull. Colonel Burke, agent at Standing Rock,
10000. Major Mitchell, agent at Fort Peck,
arrived to-day and says that the Indian Com
missioner reports 900 Indians at Fort Peck
agency, of which he took charge this spring.
but he has never been able to find that number.
He thinks, however, none of his Indians are in
the hostile country. The agencies are all out
of supplies, and the Indians are forced to hunt
or starve.
A mail courier just in from Buford says that
he saw forty Indians fifty miles north of Bis
marck yesterday. evidently on the war path.
The steamer Carroll, from Benton, to-day
brought $50 passengers, 9G of whom are en-
route from Montana to the Black Hills. Ex-
Sheriff Bullock of this party says that the Key
West will bring at least 100 more. One hun
dred and fifty men left Bismarck for the Hills
this morning.
Panic on the Minnesota Border.
ST. PAUL, July 1.-THE disaster to Clusters
expedition naturally caused uneasiness in the
regions near the Sioux reservation in Dakota,
and this in some border counties of Mime
sofa, developed into a panic. Settlers in
Murray, Douglas Grant and other sparsely
settled counties fiocked to the villages, and all
sorts of wild rumors prevailed. Governor
Pillsbury sent agents to all points of the ex-
posed front to examine into the matter, and
they nearly all reported that the alarm was
utterly unfounded. The Indians are all peace
able and are amicably disposed.
Several military companies organized on the
frontier, to whom the Governor distributed
arms, which had the effect of allaying the
excitement, and the settlers are generally re-
turning to their homes.

A Serious Financial Crisis-Nation nj
Baukruptcy Threatened

LONDON, July 1.-THE Times special from
Calcutta says: The exchange question occu-
pies public attention to the almost entire ex-
clusion of other topics. Whether the slowest
point has been reached, whether the depression
will be permanent or temporary, and whether
any, and what remedy is possible are the main
subjects OF conversation among all classes.
The rate now is a fraction above Is Cd per
rupee, SO that RENTING small sums costs about
30 per cent. Large sums cost slightly less
This tells severely on persons with fixed in
comes and all having familiesiat home; but the
inevitable rise in price GU all imported articles
makes serious difference to everybody.
The government loss will nearly equal the
gain from the opium trade. Except the mutt
ny, this is the worst crisis in the Anglo-Indian
history, and there are few instances anywhere
of calamity so crushing and so general. If
the depression continues twill probably par
alyze the import trade. The problem before
the Indian government calls for the most anx-
ious consideration, and if the depression is to
be permanent it will resolve itself into the
question of how to stave off national bank
ruptcy.

$1,000 volumes-is, think, the only
one in the South Kensington Museum,
and I have not heard that it has as yet
been made accessible to the public.
Nor can Mr.. Forster's be combined
with Mr. Dyce's, for the latter must be
kept separate. You may, however,
look at the books through glass doors,
and a preface to catalogue of them
has been published. The true princi-
pie for great capital is to have one
great library of reference, and as many
lending libraries as different localities
will support. But neither Mr.. Dyce's
nor Mr.. Forster's books are likely to be
lent out, nor were they collected with
any such view"

The Baptistery of Ravenna.
From the Roman Correspondence of the Londol
Times

From the Roman Correspondence of the London
Times.
The attention of the Italian govern
ment was called to the condition of the
celebrated Baptistery Of Ravenna, a
monument of the hi CHEST importance
as regards the history of art. The mo-
sales of the fifth century it contains are
rapidly perishing, and, in fact, the
building itself is threatening ruin in
consequence of the damage it has re-
ceived in past times, and the gradually
increasing injury it is continually suf-
fering from the damp, caused by the
very low level on which it stands. With
view to saving the Baptistery from
further injury, project has been pre-
pared by the Commentators Lanclanl,
Chief of the Department of Civil Engl-
neers at Ravenna, which has just re-
ceived the approval of the Minister OF
Public Works 1t is proposed, after all
the requisite precautions have been
taken, to raise the edifce bodily to the
modern level by means Of number of
great screws worked multaneously,
new foundations to be built beneath it.
This will be the first occasion of this
means of raising buildings In
the United States-being put into oope-
ration in connection with an ancient
edifce.
