Opening the sEsseton Reservation.

AT the recent TWO weeks council of the
Indians on the Sisseton reservation, the
subject of disposing of a part of the reser-
walton to the government was discussed,
and it is said that delegation of twelve
Indians has gone to Washington with two
propositions which are stated by the Brit
ton Daylight in this way: One to retain
one tier of townships along the north and
east sides of the reserve and sell the bal
ance; the other was to allow each buck 800
acres, to be chosen anywhere in the trian-
gle, and to each boy under 81 should be
given 160 acres, chosen in the same manner,
the balance to be thrown open to settle
ment, and the Indians to become civilized
citizens Of the United States, to be subject
to the laws thereof with equal privileges of
their white neighbors. The Indians on the
Sisseton are among the most civilized and
industrious.

SAID that the ''Mugwumps" had all resumed
their allegiance to the Republican party,
and were working earnestly for the success
of the ticket. The record of Gov Hill as
an enemy of civil service reform would
affect his chance OF election very much,
and he did not think that with
the present demoralized condition of the

Mr. HiscOck thought that just now New

WASHINGTON, Oct. Tt leaks out
through diplomatic circles that j. W. Fos-
ter did not succeed in the secret mission
upon which he was sent to Spain by Secre-
tary Bayard. Foster is a Republican, but
he was selected for the place be-
cause of his success heretofore in
the diplomatic line. It appears, too,
that his instructions had nothing to
do with the negotiations of commercial
treaty, but rather to get for the United
States concessions which would enable this
country to better trade with Spanish colo
MES. Upon making known to the Spanish
foreign office his mission, it got into the
heads of the Castilians that his III
innate aim was the annexation of
Cuba to the United States From that
moment Mr.. Foster was shabbily treated.
He was not even shown the usual courte-
sizes, and when he was ready to start for
home there were no parting calls, nor did
any of the Spanish officers take the trouble
to see him off. AIr. Fosters mission was
failure.

Progress Of the knights of labor.

HAMILTON, Ont. Oct. 1.-THE general
assembly of Knights of Labor resumed bus
mess this morning. 1t is expected that the
session will last nearly two weeks. The
report of the general secretary and treas
urer showed the rapid growth Of the order

had been firmly planted in England and
Belgium, and that there had been a steady
increase in the number of assemblies in the
Southern states; it recommended that
worl,men should work only eight hours, re-
gardless Of the wages paid. The question
of wages would right itself in few months,
in the necessary employment of surplus
workmen in consequence of the shortening

Mr. Lamar Renders a Decision.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-The secretary of
the interior has made decision upon the
the appeal of Luther Harrison. eX-assistant
commissioner of the land office, from the or
der of Commissioner Sparks denying to him
the right Of practice as an attorney before
the interior department under the terms Of
the act Of June 1, 1872, which provides
that it shall not be lawful for any person
appointed after June l, 1872, as an officer,
clerk, or employe in any department TO act
as counsel, attorney or agent for the prose-
cution of any claim which was pending in
the departments while he was such officer,
nor to aid i'll the prosecution
of any such claim within two years
next after he shall have ceased to be an
officer or employe. In his appeal, Mr.. Har-
risOn held that the act applied only to the
prosecution of claims for money; that it
had no application to practice before the
land Office, except in cases involving the
payment Of money, and that in his case it
had no application whatever, because he
was third-claSs clerk at the date of the
passage of the act. He declares that his
employment was continuous till the 1st
inst, although his salary had been increased
by promotions which were made bynew ap-
pointments. IN his opinion, after citing
the act, the secretary holds that it applies to
all departments and terms of every class.

their coming and actions were mysterious.
This morning an elderly lady and
an officer from Alabama arrived
and made inquiries for the youthful twain,
who had in some way taken alarm and gone
to Benton. They were followed and
brought back by the pursuers. one of whom
was the girls mother. AS the six weeks
bride was but 13, by the laws of Alabama,
she could not be married, save by consent,
which her mother would not give, even
now, and though a regular license had been
procured and the ceremony performed,
those facts went for nothing, and the stern
parent took the bread and butter school
girl home again, leaving the boy husband
