Siderable Trouble ale30. A CHIEF,
named John Gross, was arrested for
carrying supplies to the hostile camp,
creating a strong feeling between the
Indians and the military who made
the arrest. A courier left for this
place, and before he had crossed
the river opposite Standing Rock, he
heard the long roll beat and the bugle
sounded, and saw soldiers and white
men running toward the military
quarters.

Governor TiIden Explains.
New YORK, Sept. ID.
The Herald has the following: The
following is the line of defense ad.
vanced by Governor Tilden in 1861,
tho period of the alleged false returns
of his two brothers, Henry and Moses,
lately deceased. They were in the
chemical manufacturing business, in
Lebanon, but became financially en-
barrassed to such a degree that ruin
was inevitable unless prompt and am
pie relief came to them. AT this crisis
Governor Tiiden advanced at different
dates large sums of money, amounting
to several hundred thousand dollars,
out of his earnings, which WAS lost.
These, he claims, left his income at the
figures i'm his sworn statement, and
this is the defense to the charge OF per-
jury. The document, when published,
.r,ll ~ o,.na lao 90 n .
but it is believed that the essential
points are embraced above.
The New York Convention.
SARATOGA, Sept. -.
The Democratic State Convention is
Resembling, but all efforts to unite
delegates in favor of any candidate for
Governor are futile. Until late last
night everything was at sea. Finally
the preferences settled on Dewitt g..
West on the part OF the anti-Tildenites,
aud Comptroller Lucius Robinson, of
the Tildenits, but West peremptorily
declined and withdrew. His refusal to
run thus leaves the contest appa-
rently between Robinson and Potter,
with no rivals desiring to compete
with them. Robinson is objectionabl BILE
to many delegates because he ran on
theUnion ticket In '6l and was Endorsed
by the Liberals on another occasion.
These facts make his Democracy doubt
full % the unadulterated DInocrats.
The objection made to Potter is his
speech recognizing the State right of
of secession. The prospect is for a
bitter fight in convention, unless eff
forts now making with a view OF cut
Wing Off debate are successful. Neither
candidate is satisfactory to the party
but all attempts to secure any more
available man have failed of result, no
thoroughly popular, unobjectionable
candidate being willing tn run in the
present d~emoralized condition Of af-
fairs and since the Vermont and
| Maine elections have shown that the
popular tide don't set in for the De-
mOcracy.
