of gifts to the Sioux from the Great Father would
come out of their supplies.
Mr. HawOrth one of the Commissioners and
former agent for the Kowas and COmanches, said
that Red Cloud had made a good speech and that he
was night.
That unexpected declaration brought down the
Indian house. Haworth had surrendered on sight.
The Rev. Mr.. Riggs the third Commissioner, said
that he had been with them long as he could re-
member and still loved them. He spoke in the
Sioux tongue and claimed that he was appointed on
the Commission because he could talk their Ian
guage and there would be no misunderstanding on
account of inter probation.
The council was short and all One-sided.
DR.. Irwin, the agent, boldly counses the Indians
to go West and has insisted his advice in the face
of contrary instructions from Washington. Spotted
Tail is equally determined, and says he will burn
down the agency buildings If his intended move
ment from the Missouri is hindeTed.
The Commissioners left to-day with an Indian es-
cort fOrthe Territory. They will be gone twenty
days more. Commissioner Hayt is opposed TO the
movement West, and is evidently disappointed He
will reach YanktOn tomorrow and proceed East on
the first train. Spotted Tails choice of country is
only siXty-fye miles from the Missouri.

Thursday.
Mr. Hayt first addressed few pleasant words to

sponded. He spoke for them all. and what he had
70 say was all they had to say. He said that he
wanted to go to White Clay Creek, over 200 miles
nom the Missouri; he had looked the ground
over recently and was satisfied that there
was no use in talking about his locating any
nearer to the Missouri; that point was fixed.

selection, and he produced pamphlet of the Union

WASHINGTON.


NEW EDUCATIONAL HEADQUARTERS.
A MUSEUM IN WASHINGTON WHICH WILL BE
SECOND ONLY TO ONE IN LONDON--A LARGE
LIBRARY,
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSEl
WASHINGTON, July 14.-The National Bureau Of
Education has, within the past week, changed the
locality of its Office, for the purpose of securing
more ample accommodations for its work and Ii
brary.
Five spacious apartments at the new headquarters
are being prepared for the display of the large col
lection of articles of an educational kind
which were presented TO the United States at the
close Of the Centennial Exposition, by various
foreign Governments. These articles for two years
past have been piled up ont of sight in attic of
one of the Government offices. When they are ar
ranged and exposed, they WILL form, with the single
exception of the similar exhibition in tho South
Kensington Museum III London. the most complete
educational museum in the world. The collection
contains nearly 1000 distinct classes of articles
representing the entire educational apparatus and
methods of nearly every European country, and Of
several of the South American States. The library
OF the Bureau, consisting exclusively of works re-
lating to education, has now increased until it is
nearly first IN size among similar libraries in the
United States.
The annual report of the bureau for 1877 has inst
been completed and will be printed as an executive
document during the month of August. In cOnse-
quence of structures by the press on former reports
and a smaller appropriation for the purpose of its
publication, the present report will be much more
condensed than those of previous years. The char
acterstic feature this year will be a statement of
the changes which have been made during the past
two years by the United States in the laws regu-
lating educational methods.
