WASHINGTON, Dec. Ga good deal of loose tall,
has been INDUCED in about the Capitol. during the
last day or two, about the denomination of Mr. Uavt
to be Commissioner Of Indian Affairs. within half an
hour after Congress met in regular session on Mon
day and before the President had received official
notice that the Senate had failed to act upon
the former appointment. Tho interest in
the matter has been increased to-day bv the publi-
cation Of letter by one of the morning papers
asserting that 4 gentleman who called the attention
Of the President 10 this subject on Tuesday morn
ing, reported that both Mr. Hayes and his private
secretary dsclamed all knowledge that the
name in question had been sent to the Sen
ate on Monday The inference to be drawn from
the communication IS that Secretary Schurz
had prepared the denomination without the Prcsl-
dents knowledge, and that the lattoi's signature
had been appended by some unauthorized person.
The truth about this matter Is that any one who
made inquiries at the White House either Of tie
President or his private secretary in regard 10
Mr.. Ilayps denomination was promptly informed
that il had been made on Monday afternoon.
The nomination was signed by the President him
self in The usual way and sent 10 the Senate
on Monday at tine request of Secretary SchurZ, be
cause Mr. Iiayt had been acting a. Commissioner of
Indian Affairs, and the Secretary believed that the
interest OF the iGdan Service demanded as short an
interval M possible during which Mr.. Hayt would
not by law be allowed 10 act and the office would
be III charge of the chief clerk.

JUSTICE ALL on TIE SIDE OF THE INDIANS.
lBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.I
WAsHINGroN, Dec. G.--No official information
later than that already published in regard to the
Indian troubles in the vicinity Of Deadwood, Da-
kota has reached the War Department. Although
a general Indian war is not considered TO he immi-
ncnt such an event if not impossible as the outcome
Of the present troubles. and may be deemed
almost probable If the fears which have been
pressed in this matter should be realized il is the
opnon of officers who are not only experienced in
Indian warfare but familiar with the causes which
have operated to bring about the present dangerous
state of affairs that the Government will he taken
AT great dIsa Vantage far rs its military force
in that region is concerned Furthermore, it will
not even have justice on its side.
The country is familiar with the general fact that
enormous appropriations for the care of the Indians
are annually made by Congress- but that only the
most meagre ADVANTAGES result from them to the
Indians. and that, while the heads of Departments
are making recommendations TO Congress and insti-
tuting investigations to unearh the rascalities
which it is more than suspected wonld account for
the discrepancy between the large intentions and
the small results, the poor savage is simply starving.
Indians now committing deprcdations IN the imme-
| diate vicinity Of Deadwood are the same who re-
Gently escaped from their escort as they were being

scale necessary, bat probably quite large enough 10
keep our small available force exhausted Is, by
the long compaign against the NeZ Perces, fully oc-
| cupied should the Indians open hostiliIcs.
The most serious feature of the situation lies in the
! probability that the many rowing bands who live
In the country north and west of the Black HIS
and who are thought to be in sympathy with Sit

or less Injustice at the bands of the
whites viii join with the small band which is

! bring about an outbreak which 1t would be quite

establishment To suppress. The opinion Is expressed

moval Of troops from the Black Hills region t0 the
Texas border may result in the protection of people
I'D the latter section az the expense of the lives Of
those who arc exposed to much greater danger.

LONDON Friday. Dee 6, 1877.
The steamer Mizpah, from Leylle for Leth, came
into collision. yesterday, with an unknown vessel
off Beachy Head. Both vessels sunk. So far, only
one is known to be saved.
Beachy Head is the most lofty headland on
the south OF England IL Is two and half miles
from EastbournP. and consists OF chalk cliffs. 10 is In
latitude 500 ~ North; longitude o. 10 East From It's
position it is probable that the wreckago resulting from
the disaster would float toward Ushan where such has
been picked up. The steamer was doubtless engaged in
the freight traffic. being bound for distant Scotch
port
