the other hand, Russian dispatches from

From the Now York Sun


The recent outbreak Of tie Nez
Perces In Idaho, which has caused
such fearful destruction of life and
property, and which in its suppress
sion will cost the Government mill
ions of dollars, is not the result of
sudden impulse. The causes which
led to it have been in existence twen-
~ years, and furnish ali apt illustra-
hon of the miserable policy of our
Government in the management of
It's Indian affairs.
have known the Nez Perces tribe
since 1S43. They were under my
charge, as Superintendent of Indian
Affairs, from June, 1857, until July,
1859. They are the finest specimens
of the aboriginal race upon this con-
tinent, and have been friendly to the
whites from the time Lewis and Clark
visited them up to the Inauguration
of the present outbreak. From a
kind, docile, friendly people, the
Encouragement, frauds, and down.
rigbtrobbery perpetrated by the Gen.
eral Government and some of it's ras-
cally representatives, have driven
them to take up arms, and converted
them into fierce, dangerous and re-
lentless enemy.
Their savage instincts being
aroused by the bad and vicious poll
cy pursued by the General Govern
ment, they have committed outrage
GUS barbarities of the most shocking
and revolving character.
I cannot better acquaint you with
the history of their wrongs than to
refer you to a report which I, as a
member of joint Congressional
Committee to investigate the condi-
ton of Indian tribes, made to the
United States Senate in 1865. In
regard to the charge made in that
report against "Gov. Caleb Lyons of
Lyonsdale,' it is but proper to state
that he was promptly removed from
Office by President johnson upon
the strength of my charges. But in
stead of depositing the public funds
in the United States depository in
San Francisco, as the law and regu-
lations directed him, he started East
with the money, some forty-odd
thousand dollars in belt around
his person. On the morning of his
arrival in Washington his empty
belt was cut open and found lying
upon the floor of the sleeping car,
and His Excellency raised the hue
and cry that he had been robbed.
The robbery device was o thin and
transparent one which no sensible
man believed, but the Nez Perces
were robbed of forty odd thousand
dollars worth OF their annuities in
IN Washington sleeping ctr, aud
GOV. Caleb Lyons of I.yonsda!e'
had bill pending before tine last
Congress for relief.

Gently created quite a sensation in
his household, which consisted of
seven grown-up daughters. The re-
verend gentleman was absent from
home for number of days, visiting
in an adjoining county. The daugh-
ters received a letter from their father
which stated that he had married
q widow with six sprightly children, :"
and that he might be expected home
at certain time. The effect of that
news was a great shock to the happy
family. The girls, noted for their
meekness and amiable temperaments,
seemed another set of beings; there
were weeping and wailing and tear
ing of hair, and all manner of I,auch-
ty things said. The tidy home was
neglected, and when the day of ar

~ Virginia City Chronicle says:
Captain Bob, the Piute politician,
has called big Poker Convention,
to lie held at American Flat. The
subject of this gathering of card
sharps is to definitely settle the larg-
er denomination of hands. Some
years ago Bob learned the dips,
spurs and sinuosities OF the game
from white man, and introduced it
into the pastimes of his tribes in a
manner advantageous to his private
exchequer. He did not, so to speak,
throw the game at them all at once,
but do!ed out the fine points in judic-
ious driblets. 1t took experience
and money to learn the game of Bob.
For instance, one day, with $18 so
in the pot, one of the players reveal
ed the possession of four aces. A
trife like this did not abash the men,
tai resources of Bob, for he coolly
gathered in the pot on pair of kings
and two deuces. His antagonist was
easily convinced by Bob's argument
that the two deuces were Just equiv
alent to four aces, having the same
number of spots, while the kings
gave him the required preponderance.
These trifling digressions from the
established rules have occasioned
considerable dissatisfaction among
the Piutes, and some of the bucks
accuse Bob of having a different po-
ker rule for every change of the moon.
Therefore, they have demanded a
conyocation of the tribe to deliberate
upon the various innovations which
Bob's fertile genius has intro
duced into the game. Bob, by q dip
lomatic stroke, is now first and fore
most in the call for reform, and is
louder than all the rest in the demand
for Convention.
