Indian Delegate* In Consresn.
Red Cloud and his party were again at the Indian
Bureau thla morning, It being the dual interview
between them and the government. Tney appear
to be much depressed, having reflected
over the proceedings of yesterday. They reluctantly
came to the meeting this morning;
the earnest persuasion of the interpreter,
agent and traders Uaving induced them to do so.
Tney stated that their refusal to attend might result
to their Injury. Last night Red Shirt was so much
depressed that he wanted to commit suicide, saying
that he might as well die litre as elsewhere, as tliey
had been swludled.
Commissioner Parker opened the proceedings today
by saying the Indians were asked to come up
because it was thought they ought to have something
to say before they went home.
Secretary Cox said to them he was very sorry to
find out that Red Cloud and Ins people have not understood
what waa In the treaty or 1868; therefore
lie wanted him to comc here so that all mistakes
might be explained and be dismissed. It was important
to know exactly how mutters stood.
This government aid not want to drive
them. The Secretary then explained at some
length the provisions in the treaty, the limits
of the hunting grounds, the reservation, Ac. He understood
that Red Cloud and his band were unwilling
to go on the reservation, but wanted to live on
the headwaters of the Big Cheyenne river, northeast
of Fort Fetterman. This was outride of the
permanent reservation, but Inside of the part reserved
for hunting ground. The Secretary was
willing to say, If that would please them, he would
make It so and have their business agents there.
This would still keep the white people
off the hunting ground. The government
would give them cattle and food and
clothing, so as to make them happy in their new

names of tnc men in whom the Indians liave confidence
and want tor their agent and traders. He deHired
to find out whether they were good men and
conld be trusted by the government. He was sorry
the Indians felt bad on finding out what was iu the
treaty; but the best way was to tell It all, so there
might not be any misunderstanding.
Ked Cloud, having (shaken hands with the Secretary
and Commissioner Parker, seated himself on
the floor and said:?
What I laid to the Great Father, the President. Ik now tn
my mind. 1 have only u few words to add tlirn morning. I
have become tired of speaking. Yesterday, when I saw the
treaty and nil the false things in it, 1 was mad. I suppose it
made sou the aiuiw. The Secretary explained It this morning
ana now I am pleased. As to the goods yon talked
about I want what is due and belongs to me. The red puoplti
were raised with the bow and arrow and .'ire all of one nation,
but the whites, who are educated and civilized, swindled me,
and I hid not hard to swindle, because 1 do not know how to
read and write We have thirty-two nations, and have a
council house, the same as you have. We held a council before
we came here, and the' demand si have made upon y<m
from the chiefs I left behind me are.aU alike. You whiles
have a chief you go by, luit all the chief I go by Is Uod Almighty.
When lie tells me anything that l.s lor the best
I always go by His guidance. The whites think the ijreal
Spirit has nothing to do with us, but lie lias.
After fooling with us and taking away our puperty they will
have to luifer for It hereafter. The Great Spirit Is now looking
at us, and we now oiler Him our prayers. When we bad
a talk at the mouth of Horse creek In Ifc.W you made a chief
of Conquering Hear and then destroyed him, and since then
we have had no chief. Yon white people did the
aine to your great chief. You killed one of our great fathers.
The Ureat Spirit makes us suOTrr for our wrong doing
You promised us many things,|but you never performed
them. You take away everything. Kven if you live forty
or fifty years in this world and then dlu you cannot lane nil
your goods with you. The Ureat Spirit will not make nir
sutfer Because I am ignorant. He will put me in a place
where I will be better off than in tills world. The i;real,
Spirit raised me naked ami gave me no arms. Look
at me. This is the way I was raised. White
men say we are bad?we are murderers; but I cannot

our country. Tell the Ureal Father I inn pour. In earlier
years wbeu I bait plenty of came I could make a ;.vi:: . [
gave land away, but I am too pour Tor that now. 1 want
something for thy land. 1 want to receive some pay lor the
lands where you nave made railroads. My father has a great
many children out Went with uo ears, brains or heart. Sou
have the names to the treaty of pe: sons professin : to be chiefs,
but I am chief of that nation. Look at me. My hair Ih straight;
1 was free born on this land. An Interpreter who signed the
treaty has curly hair. He is no man. 1 will see him hereafter.
1 know I have been wronged. The words ol my
Oreat Kather never reach me and mine never reach hini.
Thcro are too many streams between us. The Ore.it Spirit
has raised me on wild game. 1 know be has left enough to
support my children lor a while. You havo stolen Denver
Irom me. You never gave me anything for it. Soma
of our people went there to engage In tanning, and you
ent your white children and scattered *hcm all uwa.v. Now
1 have only two mounds left, audi want them for myself
and people. There Is treasure lu them. You have stolen
mounds containing gold. 1 have for many yeais lived with
the men I want for my superintendent, agont and traders,
and am well acquainted with tliem I know Itiev
are men of justice.; they Uo what is right. If you appoint
them and any blame comes It will not be on you, but on me.
I would be willing to let you go upon our land when the time
comes, but that would not be until after the gaum Is gone. I
do not ask mv (Ireat Father to give nuc anvthlug. 1 came
naked and will go away naked. 1 want von to tell my Great
Father I have no fmlher business. I want vou to put me
on a straight line. I want to stop in St. Louis to see
Robert Campbell, an old friend." Ked t'loud theu pointed
to a lady In the room, saying. "Look at that wumun; she
was captured by Silver Horn's party. I wish you to pay her
what her captors owe her. I am a man true to what I sav,
and want to keep my promise. The I nutans robbed that
lady there, and through your Influence I want her to be
paid."
Secretary Cox replied to lied Cloud that the treaty
showed how the land was to be paid for. They were
to be given cattle, agricultural Implements, seeds,
bouses, blacksmith shops, teachers, Ac., and food
and clothing. The land Is good in two ways?one is
to let the game grow lor the hunt, the other to
pioupn h up ana get, corn anu wheal ami oilier
things out of It, and rained cattle on It.
The reasou why bo many white ruea live on their land, said
he, Is that they treat It iu till* way. tic would correct Ked
Cloud in a remark made by him. The whites do not expect
to take their good* with them into the other world. We know
ai well as the Indians do that we go out of the world as na
ked an we came into it; hut while liere in the world wc take
pleasure In building great nouses and towns, and make good
bread to eat. We are trying to teaeh them to d > the
ainc things, 10 they may be as well oil as we aiv.
Here (pointing to Commissioner Parker)is the Commissioner
Of Indian Aflairs, who U a chief among us. He belonged to
a race who lived here long beloro the white man came to this
country, lie now has power and white people obey hliu, and
he direct* what shall Le done In very Important business.
We will be brethren to you In the same way if you follow his
good example and learn our civilization.
Ked Cloud responded I don't blame him tor being a chief,
lie ought to be one. We are all of one nation.

Mr. Rrumot, one of the ConnnlMioners, addressed the
Indiana and explained wli.it they were trylujj to do for them,
and hoped that when he returned Irom tlieir eoiintri he
would be able to make ui goo J repoitof them to the President.
Secretary Cox pointed out In the room (lovernor Pitchy I In,
a chief of tne t'hoolawa, and Uiu gentleman adoreated tLie
Indians, saying lie reared among and lemded
with the Choc-laws. Ills mother wan an Indian and
bis father white. They did not leach htm English.
The C'hoctawn sent n delegation to Philadelphia, when the
great Washington wa? there, and thev told him they would
be friends to the whites, 'l'hey kept the tieaty. and learned
to live as white people. The Choctaw* were more numerous
than all the bands of the Sioux. There were three or
four thousand children amoug them that knew
how to read and write. When he wanted to send
a papttr to the Great Father or to the ereat council
lie wrote it himself, lie had been educated like white people
" He concluded by giving them good advice, saying?
'You inuet adopt tha while people's ways if you want to preserve
yourselves. You cannot be Slou* always unless you do
o. If you light the whites they will kill you all. If you
take the advice of vour white chief, the Secretary, you will
Jive."
Secretary Cox said to the Indian^:?
I do not want you to think the day* coming are hl.ick days. '
1 want you to think they will be bright aud happy days. He
of good spirit. If yon teel like a man who Is lost In the woods
we will guide you out of them to a pleasant place. Yon will
jo home two days from now. < >ne day will t>e spent by General

Secretary 'Cox said he would be guided by General
Smith ?b t,o the route homeward. He wan not particularly
anxious the Indians should gotoNew York.
Thus 'ended the interview.
Tbe Indians shook hands with the Secretary and
Commissioner Parker, anil then hurried from the

gathered at the door.

SENATE.
Washington, June 11, 1870.
On motion of Mr. Sherman, (rep.) of Ohio, leave
was given to the Finance Committed to sit during
(he sessions of the Seuatc.
l'aymknt of i.n pi an expenses.
Mr. Mokkiix, (rep.) of Ale., called up the joint resolution
to pay the expenses of the delegations of
Indians now visiting Washington, appropriating
$;iO,ov>o for prcsenirt, ?*c. Passed.
vnion pacific kaii.koad.
Mr. Pomebot, (rep.) of Kan., called up the bill relating
to the Central Branch Union Pacific, Kallroad
making a land grant.
Mr. SnKit.Man opposed the bill as extraordinary
and a violation of that feature of land grant policy
by which the government had always reserved to
settlement alternate section of land. The bill
was to carry out an arrangement between two roads,
by which one should receive the odd and the other
the even sections. If the bill passed there would
not be left to the United States a single acre of land
in a bell of territory ten miles wide, nearly three
hundre.l miles long, while these roads were to be
allowed to make up deficiencies of laud grants irorn
within a limit of twenty-five miles on either side.
The morning hour expiring the Franking bill came
up, but was laid aside Informally to proceed with the
pending bill?yeas 24, nav* 21.
Mr. \ ates, (rep.) or III., insisted that lands should
not be voted away indiscriminately without the
usual equivalent to the government lu reserving
alternate sections for the settlers,
lie was opposed to the bill, as giving to a
railroad the exclusive choice of all lauds within
twenty-live miles of its road, compelling settlers to
select rrom the remainder. He could not. agee that
Congress should become a mere playtning of Eastern
capitalists.
Mr. Thayer, (rep.) of Neb., considered the bill
without a precedent to justify it in legislation.
Messrs. Howaku mid Haki.an claimed that the
lull was to settle an equitable claim agaiust the government
by voting lands as u compromise for a subsidy
in bonds, to which the company was entitled
uiider prevmus legislation.
Mr. tiiayf.it said the proposition was to give
the Brownsville and Fort Kearny and Midland
Pacific, road the odd section of laud and the
Central Branch of the Union Pacific the even secturn,
thus absorbing a solid belt of laud tllty miles
wide, being tweuty-flve miles 011 each side of the
road and nearly aoo miles long. He protested
against this absorption in the interest of the Central
Branch, as tne people of Nebraska did not want that
load. He was lu favor of a home road. The bill
would repeal the requirement in the charter of the
Union Puciilc for the sale of the lands to homesteads.
The discussion of the bill occupied the entire session,
the argument being mainly that the giving
away of odd and even sections alike was violative of
the implied compact in land grants by the government
10 railroads, by which the former had the
oeneflt ol improvement of reserved alternate sections.
In answer to this it was argued that the bill
was necessary, as involving the faith of the government
in lormer legislation.
An amendment to cuntlnc tlie (train to od<l sections
was rejected?yeas in, nays 24.

QUESTION OK I'RlVlLkUE? ARREST KY THE SERUEANTAT-aiims.
The Speaker laid belore the House a letter from
the Sergeant-at-Arms, reporting mat in accordance
with the order of the House he had in his custody
rat tick Woods, alias "Pat Dooley," of Richmond,
Va.
Mr. Dawes, (rep.) of Mass., desired to have some

on motion of Mr. Aulison, <rnp.) of Iowa, tne Sergeant-nt
Arms was ordered to produce the body of
\\'oods, alias "Dooley," at, the bar of the House.
la the meantime Mr. axteli-, (dem.) o! CaL, rising
to a question ot privilege, sent to the Clerk's
ile-k ami bail read an editorial article from tlie San
Joaquin Republican ot the 31st of May, stating that
the Northern raciile Railroad rrnnchise is estimated
at, Washington to he worth now $15,000,000 cash;
that "the holders have realized about fourteen millions
tiy the scheme, as it has not cost them over one
million to engineer the thing through Congress," and
that "thus the servants of the people have traded
away $15,000,000 of the nation's property for one
million, and put that In their pockets?the shameless,
brazen-raced thieves."
He said tbat such articles should not he permitted
to float around loose without some attention. If
Congress traded away fifteen millions of the nation's
property for one million it proved Its members
clearly until for their business. Any man who could
not trade within lourtecn hundred per cent of the
value of an article should be expelled trom Congress.
A Congress that gave the lobby fourteen hundred
per cent the advantage no longer deserved the confidence
of a tree people. Ho suggested that, a committee
of eleven be appointed from the reporters'

Dooley. or Ri? hmond, Va., charged with huviug on
the 30th of May inude a murderous assault, at Rteliuiond,
Va., on Charles H. Porter, a member of Congress
from the State of Virginia. The prisoner )h
apparently an Irlshruaui of the laboring class, about
tlnrty-flve yearn old, of middle stature, hut squarely
and strongly built.
Mr. Alliron, (rep.) of Iowa, offered a resolution
that the matter of privilege tie reierrod to the Judiciary
Coimmtiee for examination, and to report
what action the House should take in the premises,
with power to Mend for persons and papers; and
that In the ineuntime the person at the bar be retained
In th" custody of the Sergemt-at Arms.
Mr. Randall, (dem.) of Pa, demanded a division
of the question, objecting to the retention of a citizen
of the United States during the pleasure of the
Judiciary Committee.
The llrst part of the resolution was airreed to without
a division, aud the second part by yeas 119,
nays 30.
While the vote was being taken Mr. Roots, (rep.)
of Ark., called the attention of the Speaker to the
fact that several gentlemen (Mr. Woodward and
others) were holding conversation with the prisoner.
The Speaker decided that that was out of order.
The prisoner was then remitted to the custody of
the Sergeant-at-Arins, subject u> the order of the
House.
Mr. Kerr, (Mom.) of In<1., on the name subject,
offered a resolution reciting that the prisoner was
poor and unable to employ counsel, and that he deHired
the aid of counsel In his behalf, und directing
the Speaker to employ suitable counsel lor the
prisoner.
Mr. Dawes remarked that he had seen In the papers
that the people of Richmond had raised a
purse for this man, and ne asked Mr. Kerr whether
lie had any information on the subject.
Mr. Kkuk said he had no such Information, our,
on the contrary, understood that toe man was very
poor. He Had Just been Informed that some small
sums 01 money had been given to him bv some
friends on the street belore leaving Klchnioud.
Mr. Maynako, (rep.) ui Ti na., understood that a
writ ol habeas corpus had been sued out in Richmond,
but had been disregarded by the Sergeant-utAruis,
and also that- soinu gentlemen on the other

The House then resumed the consideration of the
Senate amendment* to ihe Legislative, Kxecuuve
and Judicial Appropriation bill, the pending question
being on the substituie reported by tint Committee
oil Appropriations for the .Senate amendment
putting the female employes in tLe departments oa
the same to .ting as tne men.
Mr. Kouerh, irep.) ol Teuu., opposed the amendment
and suosiuute, com -tiding that Hie employment
or women, In the first instance, was a war
measure, and snould have ceased when the war did,
and that their employment in public oittces unsexed
and demoralized them, and was calculated lo reflect
no credit on the government ami no good Ultimately

Iiouse on the advance sep taiceii on ilie subject ol
woman's compensailon, anil argued thai it wouui
have the eltect of Increasing it in faciioiles and
other employment all over tin country.
The discussion,was carried on at some length, and
was participated In by Messrs. Holman, Sargent,
ltenton, Wlllard, Maynard, iarusworth, Hoat and
Dawes.
Mr. Dawes cloned the discussion. He said that
the adoption ol the Senate amendment would add
to tue burdens ol' the people three liundred thousand
dollars a year. Why should that l>e done? Was the
female imul less in proportion to her labor by the
government than she was anywhere else? Nowiie.e
In the country could sliikearn nine hundred dollars
a year. He had reasou to know thai the intelligent
and thoughtful ol tin) females In the Treasury
Department were alumu-d at tills movement.
He had communications from them lu writing.
It was in Ins knowledge that they had been to the
Capitol and had called out members to implore them
noi to adopt the senate amendment. They did
ask that the avenues to those other offices might be
open to them, so that if'they were competent to till
11,200. SI,400, $l,0oo, or $1,hoo clerkships It would
be lawful to appoint them. Tnat was ail they
askeu.
Mr. Farnswouth, (rep.) of III., asked Mr. i?awes
whether it had not Men lawful for years and years
to appoint women to tirst class clerkships.
Mr. Dawks said that lie supposed It was, but It
hail been decided at the other end of tue aveuutfttiat
It was not.
The ijuestlon wan first taken on an amendment
otTereil by Mr. Hoar to add to the substitute the following:?

The substitute reported by the Committee on Appropriations
as amended by Mr. Hoar's proposition
was then adopted without division.
The section In relation to remalc employes In
the departments now reads as follows:?

Mr. Potter, idem.) of N. Y? addressed the House 1
in support oi the amendment. urging that the present
salaries of United States judges were shamefully
inadequate.
Mr. Davis, of N. Y., gave his most hearty
concurrence to the proposition to Increase the saia- <
rics of the Judges.
The discussion was continued by Messrs. Logan,
Dickey and Ucnton, against the amendment, and
by Messrs. Beck, O'Neii and Poland, in favor of It.

Content.
a thr.iug not Inconsiderable in numbers, and but
little after iho style of perfect quality, gathered last
evening at Ireland's, No. 60 l.lspenard sireet, to witness
a friendly contest between Mr. Kudolphe
nnd Mr. Joseph Dion, both renowned as
expert niliiardlsts?probably the flne.it living.
The games were played upon the usual
carom tables, with the standard balls and cushions.
Three contests took place, all of the Krencli carom
game, one hundred points up. The playing was unusually
brilliant, ami on both sides was characterized
by many exquisite shots, calling out the rapturous
applause of the auditors. Mr. Rudolphc won
the first game, in which he exhibited his marvellous
powers in many fancy shots, beating Ins adversary,
when Dion had made but. twenty-nine points.
Auother trial ensued, and it was here the genuine
capaetues of the two contestants became apparent.
Tills second trial was easily won by
dion*
His execution was gracelul, easy and beautifully
conceived. Dion seems to possess a self-confldence
that even the most embittering adversity cannot
disarm. He is always the same?a caviiltor as an
opponent, a steadfast, determined and undaunted
player when he tries to win. He Is a consummate
artist. Mo player can excel the delicate touch
with which he handles Ills cue. It U
a musical motion, and there id an
admirable entire absencejof eftort aud careless man
tier patent iu every slim. 'iu,s (acuity, whica is
nothing hut a keen polish of nerve and a true conception
of the player's function, Is success Itself, as
was apparent iHst evening. To exhibit one's prowess
in tut; midst of excitement ami Uii ler t tie gaze of
hundreds and still attain maximum perfection is a
rare consummation. Such an opponent had the expert
Httdiiiplie. Dion directed ins ball with marvel.
Ions jtiwxxr. A peculiar feature was liis intuitive
judgment. It seldom failed. In cushioning, in Hue
caroms, draws, nursing, the demonstrations of
tne lookers on attested Ills skill by continuous applause.
MR. RfpOI.PHK,
on the contrary, was not treated to common courtesy.
The popular voice was against him, and being
a nervous man It doubtless allected his playing.
Kudolphe sought too mucti for precision with Ins
cue ami timid?loo much mathematics. Accuracy?
valuable as it is?does not iriuinpii unless suppoiied
by freedom ol action. Measurement is paiJ ot Mr.
Kudolplie's execution?Unit is, what tie does with
tiie balls is inure external than spontaneous. Hi ill
he made the most difficult and brilliant
shots uf the evening, aud they were duly appreciated.
The second game, when Kudolphe was leading,
suddenly turned in favor of l>ion, when the latter
worked the balls on the right side cushion and
effectually looked them near the jaws, lie ran 53;
this closed ttie game, while Kudolphe had :u to make.
At this point oioii exhibited his otiaracteristlc confidence,
and stroke upon stroke lell wit a rapid certainty.
A third game was desired by Kndolphe, and finally,
alter souie reluctance, was agree t to by Dion.
Tins ended as the second did. In this trial,
ttiough Itudolghe wus again leading, Dion, amid loud
applause and by the most skilful aud marvellously
facile shots, nursed the balls again toward the side
cushion and worked them intlu'ijaws, when he ran
the game out by making >i. The loliowiug are the

YACHTINO NOTES.
Ttie gre ?t event of the week will, of conrse, bo the
New Vork Yacht Club regatta on Tuesday next. A
splendid display Im anticipated. Matched mo evenly
as many of the compel Horn are, a close and brilliant
contest ih inevitable. No fewer than eighteen yachts
have a'roady entered the lists?eleven schooners and
seven sloops?and neatly every one of them has
tttrurod prominently during past exhibitions. It
would be invidious to make selections, but it may
confidently be assorted that no regatta held under
the auspices of the club promised so well. The
cheering prospects of the season have suggested
many admirable Improvements, and yaelumen generally
have been exceedingly active durlug the past
month or two in their endeavors to render their
cratts as swtrt as possibi". Although the list of entries
does not disclose the names of many new vessels,
the Tidal Wave in fact ttelni? the only one. together
with th" Madeleine, which was formerly a sloop, and
which may be said to i e completely new, there is,
nevertheless, a loruiidable array of splendid
sell'loners, whose names arc not unknown to fame.
As previously stated, a flairboat will be anchored
