The Indian Population.

The Indian Population.
QUEBEC, CAN, May 2S.-Despatches
have just been received here from the
Dominion of Canada exploring party now
at Lake Mistassini. Up to the time that
these dispatches left, the explorers were
unable to speak positively as to the d.
mansions of the lake, but there is little
doubt that it will be found to exceed the
size OF Lake Ontario. The survey Of the
lake and the geological Inspections of its
surroundings will probably be completed
in the month of August and the return of
the expedition may be looked for early in
the fall. The country surrounding the
lake has already been pronounced BY the
geological branch OF the expedition as
promising great mineral wealth. For ag-
ricutural purposes It is believed to be
practically valueless. The lake was COM
pletely frozen over on Nov. 20 last. For
the month Of January the mean temporal
ture at Mistassini was II degrees below
zero. For several days together the Their
mometer registered IS degrees below and
on one occasion AZ below.
All the Indians north of the height OF
land in the Mistassni district are nomI-
nally Christians and members of the
1nulCu Vi Ing Aduus luEtI spiritual WdnIS
being ministered to by Bishop HOrden
and his clergy, of Moose Fort, James
Bay, whose diocese includes the whole of
the district known as MOosOnee. The
Bishop has not only acquired thorough
knowledge of the various dialects of the
Indians under his spiritual charge, but
has imported printing press, manufac-
tured block types representing the neces-
sary Indian characters, and printed por-
tiOns OF the Bible and other works for the
use Of its flock.
The dispatches from Mistassni state
that Mr.. Bignell, p. l.. 5. OF this city. no
was sent out in charge Of the expedition
as its chief, has been relieved Of his COM
mand, which has been given 10 Mr.. Lowe,
Of Ottawa, a member of the Dominion
Geological Survey, and who has hitherto
accompanied the party as geOlOgist. Soon
after the arrival OF the expedition during
the winter at Mistassini, Mr.. Lowe is said
TO have obtained permission from his chief
70 accompany courier from the camp
back 10 Lake st. John. Arrived there he
proceeded 10 Quebec and Ottawa on his
own responsibility, where he made such
representations respecting the mandge-
mcut Of the expedition that he was APP

Dominion Geological Society. u take
supreme charge of the entire exploring
party, and armed with a letter Of recall
for Mr.. Bigneil. 10 is understood that the
principal charge made against the lattpr's
conduct of the expedition is the alleged
loss OF valuable time in reaching Mistas-
sini.

AMENITIES OF WAR.
Walking Into AN Enemy's Camp and
Out a gain.
Fro0l no Clicdgo Inter OCEAN.

From tho Chicago Inter ocean.
While we were in front of Chattanooga
it became fashionable along the picket
line to exchange papers. The plan was
for a Confederate who wanted a paper to
come to the front, shake Southern paper
as flag of trace, and in this way invite
exchanges. The pickets on either side in
that immediate vicinity would cease firing,
the Union soldier would start from his
! line and the Confederate from his line,
and they would meet half way, shake
| hands, exchange papers, and. if there
were no officers in sight, sit down and
have a chat. This had been kept up for
several days, when there came an order
from headquarters that no more papers
should be exchanged. But the boys,
choosing their time for exchange, con-
tinued the practice against orders. There
came week, however, in which no Con-
federate responded to waving or shaking
or fiutterings OF paper or handkerchief
and we knew then that orders against eX-
change had been issued on that side as
we'll as ours.
But one morning quite early my part
ner discovered a man on the Confederate
line franticaly waving a large paper. He
suggested that we slip away from the re-
wanted. He took paper, waved 1t. and
we started toward the Confederate in front.
When we had proceeded about half
way to the point of meeting the fellow
ceased to wave his paper. We were puz-
zled at this, but finally concluded that he
was down in hollow, and we would see
him when be came up on high ground.
So we walked on and walked with
out warning into a group of SOL
diers at the Confederate picket post
The men were just ready to take
breakfast, and after the first furry
they iOked us a good deal about our eX-
traordinary willingness to get into their
clutches at breakfast time. When we
spoke Of the exchange Of papers the off,
Ger in charge informed us that orders
were positive against exchange, and that
all his men understood it. AS this was
the case he took the position that we had
come willingly into their lines, and that
ne could not allow us to return. / saw
at once that his men disagreed with him,
but the question was how we were 10 get
away.
nv partner, who had been a soldier in
Germany, joined in the jokes at our ex-
pense, and proposed that he make the
boys some coffee that was coffee. Tue
Contederates had n very poor excuse for
that article, and without more ado he
proceeded to make a kettle Of coffee. the
aroma Of which seemed 10 fasclnate the
cotIee-hungry sharpshOoters. When he
had poured the coffee into the cups and
had eXpatiated on the good it would do

Col. Jackson introduced yesterday six
supplemental specifications i'll the
charges against Architect Clark. The
first four alleged the construction and
workmanship were not such as the specif-
cations required in the western approach
and steps to the southern wing Of the capt.
tol, in the ornamental lamposrs on the
eastern front OF the capitol, ana in the
facings and steps leading to the portico
of the south front of the Interior Depart
ment. The fifth spec tication alleged that
the bonds accepted by Mr.. Clark in his
contracts with Middleton, Lane Il Co.
and with John Lane and Antonio Malnati
were contrary to the statutes, and there
fore null and void. The sixth speciica-
ton alleged "that because of the gross
neglect, the character Of the labor and
the inferior materials used, such as prim-
ing, paints, etc, the iron in the dome of
the capitol is in many places c0rroding,
disintegrating and and falling from its
position, thereby not only marring the
beauty, but endangering the stability Of
the structure, all of which can be proven

fined him $25 and impr sonment for

him to jail.
The greatest confusion prevailed, and
the constable started out with Johnson,
when the Judge recalled them and said
to Johnson that no Infamous gambler

Johnson hotly replied that no infamous
