Surrender of Crazy Hor.e's Band.

CAN'T ROBINSON. (Neb), May 6.-The surrender of Crazy Horses band took place at thiS point at BPM. to-day. The band numbers nearly 1900 sOnls, under Crazy Horse, Little Hawk, He Dog, ant Little Big man. Crazy Horse said he was making this peace to last. The ponies surrendered are c7,imated to number nearly $500 They sem to he in very good condition, and have many American horses and mules among them. A soon as Inc lodges were erected, a detachment of Indians and soldiers under Lieutenant Clark of General Crnok's staff went to each one and obtained the number of it's inmates, as well as the surrender of all the arms. This task is not vet com pleted but up to the time of writing over one hundred guns have been obtained, chief iy improved brecch lOaderS. Crazy Horse gave up three Winchester rifles; Little Hawk gave up two. The Indians present a good appearance, but their village shows signs of unceasing pursuit the past year; many of the lodges are very old and almost in rags
 Great numbers of this band have never been on reservation before. Little Hawk, one of the principal chiefs, wears about his neck the silver medal presented to his father by President Monroe in 1Sl1. This arrival makes the aggregate number of Northern Indians who have surrendered to General Crook at Red Cloud and Spotted Tail agen- cieS since March, nearly 3,600, and does away with the necessity for military ex- petition the coming Summer. General Me kenzie will have a council with Crazy Horse and other chiefs tomorrow or the day after.

It sometimes requires little courage to call man liar, especially when it is done face to face, but it does net require any particular amount of brains or knowledge, and one thing Is certain, simply calling n man liar does not make him one. By far the wisest course is to prove man liar and let the inference be drawn by others from the testimony furnished It is favor ite epithet of th, Citizen with reference to tine MINER, and very safe one to use at the distance of two hundred miles. We re- quest only that the Citizen will designate what lies we have tol,l, and we will not even ask that the Citizen prove that they are lies, but we will take the other side and prove that they are truths.

HE 6SrHANSiygRsARYA At RsSo.--
The excursion train from Reno
returned at this city on its way 70
Virginia last evening on time, with
the most satisfied set Of Odd Fellows
It was ever our lot to see. All seem
ed in excellent spirits, and delighted
with the trip, and their cordial
reception by the Remedies. The
exercises were OF an unusually
interesting character. Over 400 Odd
Fellows were in the procession, the
grand officers wearing their new
regalia. The Hall which is q beau.
tiful one WAS dedicated according to
the impressive ceremonies OF the
Order, after which an able address
was delivered BY General G. G. Bat
terman which is spoken Of in the
highest terms. After prayer BY the
Grand Chaplain and some excellent
music by the choir. the members of
tho Fraternity repaired to sumpt-
uous banquet 10 which they did
ample Justice. Everything passed
of peaceably and WAS in every
respect grand success.

A MISTIKEN COYOTE.

By the senator, which arrived yester-
day, Mr. Wolcott, of this city, brought
two yonDg eagles for Woodward's gar
Den. He states that this specie of eagle
is rare almost to extinction. They were
secured by him on very elevated por-
tion of the Serpe range of mountains,
about seventy miles northwardlv from
Santa Barbara. Having previously OBJ
served the parent eagle sailing down into
the valley, he climbed a tree twenty feet
above the ground before a branch was
reached, and then ten feet more to the
nest, some of the, sticks composing which
were as thick as a mans wrist. With
some difficulty he secured the young
birds, then about three weeks old, and
about the size of chickens. He succeeded
in decamping with them before the re-
turn of one of the old birds, which came
back shortly afterwards with a young
lamb in its claws. Though the old bird
saw Mr.. Wolcott, it did not see the
young eagles he had, or there would have
been a square fight. Returning to the
house at which he was staying, the birds
were secured in a pen and kept three
weeks. They are now about six weeks
old, about two feet in height, and can
dispose of jackrabbit or 50 at meal
without indigestion.
A few days ago coyote visited the
