tory for either party, but the imme-
diate results are unquestionably
favorable to the Republicans. That
which will cheer the Republicans is
the possession Of both houses OF the
Legislature and the certainty Of
electing Governor and minor State
officers by the majorities in those
Houses The other parties will no
doubt take comfort in the fact that
they, combined, have thrown moro
votes than the Republicans have.
The enlargement of the hall of the
Housa of Representatives by taking
away the partition walls on it's South
erly side and extending it to the cen
tire wall Of the building for the pur-
pose of improving the ventilation Of
the hall is still going on and the
work is being prosecuted as fast as
possible with view Of having it Gu
tircly completed previous to the
meeting of Congress in December.
The capacity of the hall will be great
" increased and its appearance great
ly changed, and will form ample
space for the increase Of Representa-
tives for many decades to come. The
fine and attractive room known rs
the Speakers Room is one Of those
that are being taken to enlarge the
House. In this room were paintings
and likenesses of all the Speakers
from the adoption of the Constitu-
ton to the present time-from
Muhlenberg to Randall, including
among them those Of many of the
most distinguished of American
statesmen, such as Jonathan Trum-
bull, Theodore Sedgwick, Henry
Clay, 1.angdon Cheeves, John Bell,
james X. Polk, r. NJ. T. Hunter and
Robert G. Wentbrop--names that

In a room formerly used as a billiard room

THE 50 CALLED ~lNgASEON- GE'
THE INDIAN TERRITORY

Our cid Kansas friend, the wsll-known
Journalist, Col. X. J. Hinton, row Of the
New York Mod is in town, en- route from
the Indian TeIrilory, Ia which he hes been
pursuing, ior newspaper srd literary pur-
poses, = quiet but exhaustive inquiry into
the actual condition Of affairs in that re-
gion. As usual he is full of points. Sim
ton usually succeeds in getting al the bot
tom of things, shd We Judge from our CON
versation with The Colonel, that be has
done SO in the case Of the Territory. He
declares on the authority Of MsjoT Wilcox,
10Th cavalry, in command ST NIGits, as
we'll as other officers, Indian and L. 5. cfii-
cials and citizens, snd his own cbserva-
tions, that the so-called 'invssion' Of the
ceded lands, is an arraat humbug. 1t is
probably true thst If the Presidents
proclamation had not been issued,
here might have been something
like 'boom," bat the military officers be-
lieve that even Ihen the fears that would
have arisen from the neighhorhOOd Of the
Cheyennes, Kickspoos. ossges and other
Indians, would have been ample 10 have
kept away any large number. So far as
the mass of the settled Indians in the FIVE
nations are concerned, there has been a de-
gree Of indifference TO the occupation If
the ceded lands which would asionish those
who, deceived by reports published in sen-
sational newspapers, have believed thst
hundreds OF reckless men were rushing
over the Territory, snd that the Indians
were ready to fight them. Outside the In
dian official rings and of the few white
persons living on them, so far as Col. Him.
ton could Judge, the Indians do not seem TO
care ole iots if the c-ded lands were
fully occupied by white settlers.
This statement will be denied vi hout doubt
by the two Indian papers at Tah- lah-quah
and Muscogee, but it is sustained by con-
current facts. The Mayor Of ViIita and
others declared in letter to Msjor Wilcox
that no real invasion bad occurred. The
Indian official rings are quite, in Col.
Hinton's opinion, as desirous Of making
capital for their side out of the folly of
Boudinott, Carpenter & Co, as the railroads
connected with the Territory are and were
willing to make profit out Of possible in
crese Il traffic. The commanding officer
