The agent says he is reliably in
formed that there are four hundred
and fifty lodges of Piegans in the
Bear Paw mountains, about four
miles southwest of that post, and
that probably as many more Brit
ish Blackfeet, Bloods and Piegans
are on their way to Bear Paw
mountains. They were in close
proximity at last accounts. The
CTees, British Indians, are also in
the mountains. The British AS
sinaboines have camped with the
American Assinaboines. Sitting
Bull is on Frenchmen's Greek, this
side of the line, with his whole
camp. The ostensible reason for
this influx is the pursuit of buffalo.

VERSAILLES, Jan 80, 4 p. NJ
President MacMahon's letter of
resignatian says: "Being in disa-
greement with the Ministry, being
hopeless of forming another Cabi-
net, and unwilling to assent to
measures which L regard as CONTRA
ry to good army organization, I
withdraw from power"
At meeting of BureauX of the
Left, Gambetta proposed Grevy for
President. Unanimously approved.
MacMahon asked the Ministers
to countersign his letter of resigna-
tion, but they refused, declaring the
letter merely a personal act.
PARIS, P. M.-The present Min
listers will resign and q new Parlia-
meEtAry Cabinet will be consti-
tuted. 1t is reported that Gambet-
ia will take the Premiership and
Foreign Portfolio. The Concourse
Of the general public at Versailles
is not very great. The excitement
does not compare with that of May
Oath, 1878, when Theirs resigned.
There is no disturbance anywhere.
