gress, during LivingstOn's admins
tration, for the manae ement of the
agency and employment and incl

stole all he could.
The instances of perfumes are too
numerous to mention. Livingston
was an Episcopalian appointment.
He gave fonts and stained glass
windows to the chapels. This is only
skeleton of the worst case of plum
dering ever made public in the Indian
service in the West.

THE ORANGE EXCITEMENT.
QUEBEC, July 15.--The last few
days have witnessed a marked change
of sentiment here, and a growth of
strong feeling in favor of annexation
to the United States. This is due to
the conduct of the Imperial and Do
minion in tolerating open persecu-
ton of Her Majesty's Protestant
subjects in the province. Many
events of the last few days dare not
be recorded by the Qubec press, the
city being virtually in the power of
an armed force of Ribbonmen, who
would not hesitate to burn the Office
Of any newspaper expressing its
opinion on the recent outrages, as it
threatened to burn the Parliament
House few nights ago for the least
reference to impending difficulties.
Some months since the outside of
two newspaper offices here were
tarred and the windows of another
smashed with sticks and stones, and
after B. Battery left for Montreal last
week plans were discussed by the
Irish for taking possession of the
citadel, and they were only preyen-
ted from doing SO by company of
volunteers being called out on the
Premier learning the mob's inten-
ton.
The Ribbonmen announce their in
tention of wiping out the Orange
leaders here, and it is believed that
they are all marked men. Two or
three young Briton Orangemen have
already been badly beaten by I'M
known assailants late at night.
ProtestantS reason that such state
of affairs is not tolerated in the
American Republic if military pro-
lection is able to check it; and unless
speedy change occurs here, or some
thing akin to a revolution takes place,
influential manifestations in favor of
annexation to the Unitad States may
be looked for. Quebec citizens begin
to think themselves British subjects
in name only.
A WOMAN LEADS A BAND OF HORSE
THIEVES.
DENVER, COL. July IA dis
patch from Canon City says sheriff.
posse, pursuing horse thieves, came
up to them at Bolles Rancho and
were fired upon by the thieves. The
posse returned the fire, killing one
instantly and MORALLY wounding the
second, who died in six hours, but
refused to give the names of any in
the party or any information. On
preparing the bodies for burial, it
was discovered that the smaller
robber, who had been killed at first
fire, was a woman, young and deli
cately formed and decidedly hand
some. She had been mistaken for a
boy. She was heavily armed and
was the first to fire on the pursuing
party. There was no clue to their
indemnity. They had stolen five
horses and had all in their possession.
WORK RESTORED TO TWENTY THOU
SAND MINERS.
POTTsvILLE, Pa, July 15.-There
was general resumption of mining
to-day, after a suspension of two
weeks. The miners Of this region
return to work with fair prospect
of continued steady work for the
balance Of the shipping year. The
prospect for steady employment and
slightly advanced wages creates a
much better feeling among the work
ingmen here, and an improvement
in business is generally looked for
