Correspondence OF The Richmond DlSpatch.l
DECEMBER 90, 1879.
The long and protracted drought was
broken few weeks since by frequent rains,
which has dispcllcd the fears OF water
famine. and enabled the mills again to grind
upon full time. The wheat crop has been
greatly improved 10y the rains, rs well as
mildcr weather. and will go into winter
probably as muciI advanced in tiIlerlng and
yieor as usual, except such crops as were
attacked by the fly, some OF which will
prove entire failures. The corn crop il
probably about two thirds OF full yield,
bat The improved price will compensate
somewhat for smaller yield.
Our people are very much disguised at
The proceedings OF their representatives in
Richmond. Envcnomed hate, coupled with
The greed OF the spoils, seems TO be the only
motive which prompts them to action, and
tudcyisc the most infamous schemes to de-
Grade and dcbasc all that is respectable and
decent in their own State. The Yankee
proyosts plucticcd their diabolical schemes,
Then came Underwood and his harpies, who
sought out new inventions OF dcvltry: but
il remains for those Of "our own house
hold "-those from among uS--to stir up
lower cc>s-poolS OF infamy to degrade and
humiatc all whom they regard ms rcspccta-
bic and cultivated In the State. We are
ready TO cry out with the psalmist, "Oh,
Lord, how long shall the wicked triumph?
How long shall mine enemy have dominion
over me 7"
The County Court OF this county was
held last Monday. His Honor the Judge
had recently returned from Richmond,
where he was assured his career was soon
10 end, aud in view OF his early demise saw
lit to preach his own funeral. The occasion
was II most solemn one, and with much
feeling his Honor, in most pathetic ad-
dress, came very near sutlusing the entire
lcourt, including himself, In tears.

From the Indians.

THE INDIANS HAVE ACCEPTED THE CoMHls-
SONS ULTiMATUM.
Los PIN0s AGENCY, December %
Ouray informs the commission that the In
dams have accepted his ultimatum. Hatch
is ready to leave with the prisoners, but is
compelled TO await the arrival Of soweneIl,
who is on his way from Grand river to ac-
company the chiefs to Washington az the
representative OF the Wbiie-River Ufes.
Jack was also selected by Ouray to repre-
sent that tribe, but his heart fails him and
he declines to 20. fearing arrest. Jacks
change is attributed'by Ouray to Mormon
influence. Jack decided to quit the reserva-
ton and join Sitting Bull. He informed
Ouray that he was the man with a carbine
and plenty Of ammunition, and proposed to
fight. Hatch will probably start on the 18th.
The Indian prisoners will be under mill
tary guard detached from Fort Garland.

The Chicago pOrk-Pa elk erS' Strike.

CHICAGO, December 23.-1hcrc is no
change in the pork-packers' strike. The
UroUer's journal this afternoon publishes
a letter from an Influential Catholic priest
OF Nativity church, in which he advises the
union to resclnd their last order that the
packers shall not hire other workmen than
those belonging to the union. This il is
thought will have a good effect, especially
as the strikers are in q bad financial condi-
ton, and the employers arc goOd-natured
over the depreciation IN hogs and advance
in provisions.
