IntMiin Agent Alreniljr nt Work Bpcclal to the Sentinel. Wakinmon, Fe.b. 1J This afternoon a couple of well-d.eaaed gentlemen, beyond the meridian of life, and pos ewed of a very builnesi-like air, stepped into a telegraph olhce, wrote a telerrira, addressed to a far "Western Indian asent, and left the place In a hurry. On the desk they ieft a copy of the metsace. It read: "Biiier keep Indians at home. The De partment won't pay their expenses." Upon Inquiry at the Interior Dspartment I aecerta:nei that thes men are here lobby ing for the passage of ti.e bill before Congress providing for the allotment of lands to the Indians In severalty. They went to ths Secretary of the Interior and asked to have representatives of certain tribes of Indians eent here for tbe purpose of stating their wishes to Congrees in relation to the allot ment of lande, but were refased. The reason they have for haying the land tet aside in tho title of the Indians is that they Can be bought for a sons:, almost. Some of the Indian agehts, it appears, are into this icherue, also, and are probably nego tiating the purchase of the lands if the bill allotting them is passed. The schemers would have the Govern ment pay areata to act for them; the ex penses of the Indians in cocuing here in tLe . interest of tho bill, and then take the In dians back as paupers after they have been cheated out of their lands. A few more exposes like tbii and the allotment of lands to the Indtane in teveialty will never be a ccmplisaed. Treparlnj; for the li.uasnral Week. ijjfCial to trie SeatlaeL. Washington, Feb. 12. Hotel men say that the people who are engaging quarters for the inauguration are becuring them for all the week of the 1th of March, and that it is expected that the festivities of the inauguration will continue until iat least the following Saturday, the 7th. The inaugural ball room is to be occupied for some entertainment or other every night during the week. Two nights will probably te occupied with fancy drills by the visiting military companies, and the other night may be taken in a bind concert. So there will be attractions here all of the week. The Inauguration Committee will take ehitrge of l!lnnJL.atii:g tiitj city 0:1 the n'w'm Of the 1th of March. The tire-wjrks will very extensive and very tine. Ua the other two nights of the week the citizens will con duct the pyrotechnic display. Immense quantities of materials for the occasion are being received. A train load of tire-works, flags, banners aud banting will be ued. The novelty stores are already flooded with them. There is a great deal of warm ßjnthern blood in Wabir.;ton. The city is a South ern one, and the poor,!? are of Virginia and I Maryland stock largely, bo there has been lying dormant a va?t amount of Democratic patriotism within tins District, which, al though ruled by Kepublicans. is over wnelmincly of the othr prty.
