ladies and gentlemen prominent in Wash
ington society, among them President
Arthur and all the members Of the Cab
met now in the city, a large number of
Senators and members of the House Of
Representatives, and nearly all the mem
bers of the diplomatic corps, together
with ladies and their families and many
officers of the army and navy. Colonel

Payme-s Threatened Invasion.
LITTLE Rock, Feb. 6.-Advices from the
Indian Territory are to the effect that the
Indians are greatly excited and stirred
up in regard to the threatened invasion Of
Oklahama by Payne and his followers.
They fear that Payne's persistence will Ill
timately force the Government to a COM
promise or settlement to that part of the
territory. The opinion is divided among
the leaders as TO whether the expulsion of
the invaders ought to be left wholly to the
Government, or whether the Indians ought
not to assist in driving them ont. Should
the latter be decided upon, the probabili-
ties are that blood Will be spilled. Gen.
Pope's troops are guarding the border,
but so far no captures are reported, nor
| does it seem to be known whether any
movement has yet been made on the Ter
ritory.
Buying Lands From the iEnhians.
LITTLE Rock, Feb. GA special from
the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Agency, In
dian Territory, learns that Eastern capt.
talists and stockmen have purchased from
the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians $780,
900 acres OF grass land, and from each the
privilege of fencing the same and erecting
necessary ranch buildings and improve
ments. The leases have been approved by
the Secretary of the Interior before going
into effect. But no difficulty il a~uticipat-
ed, as the Indians are unanimous in the mat
ter. 1t is expected that prompt action will
be taken in the case, as it assures a yearly
income fund of nearly $40 per capita for
every man. woman and child on the reser-
vation. There is q portion of it that
yields nothing towards the support Of the
Indians.
