A party of Siouxs in the employ of the government, at Fort Rice, came up to visit the Rees last week and made one night at leas ^hideous with their whoop ing and dancing. They informed the Indians here that the Sioux in council at the Grand River Agency determined to offer no further obstruction to the settlement of the country that their game was gone and they must now rely upon tho whites for subsistence and de termined to adopt their customs as rapidly as possible. Small Back, ser geant of the company of -outs, thinks they are honest in this but would not advise any one to venture into their country without arms. THE Fort Lincoln hay contract, 1,200 ton, was awarded to John Mason yester day, at $13.50 per ton. John will employ Bismarck men to do the work, and the town will be directlv benefitted.

We would here say, that, we have never before played with any club with so little ill feeling being shown on cither side, or, with any taking their defeat in a more gentlemanly manner, and we hope to be able to return all the civilities shown us on theocoasion of our return gamo to be piayed at Fort Lincoln on the 17th inst.

About the time of the com mencement of the Indian outbreak an English Lord traveling in this country was missing and was supposed to have been murdered by the Indians.

Eighty Six and Still Lively. Mr.Richard Mills, one of the oldest persons of the west gave us a call a day or two since.

This was the subject of Dr. Slaugh ter's lecture Friday evening. The at tendance was small, but the Doctor handled his subject well and without embarrassment. Those present were highly entertained. L'UETY BISMARCK, D. T., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST Mail Service. The following letter to Senator Ram sey will explain itself. Senator Win dom has also written the proper author ities urging the importanco of imme diate action. When the route is ex tended some arrangements will certain ly be made for regular mail service: WASHINGTON I). T., Aug 5th, 1873. SIR Referring to your endorsement under date of yesterday, oa a lettsr addressed to yoa by Mr. O. A. Lounsberry, editor of tho Bismarck (D. T.) Tribune, In which the extensam-of the Northern Pacific Kail road to Bismarck ia mentioned, and increased mail facilities for tha people of the that place are re quested, 1 have the honor to state that a letter is this day addressed to the President of the Northern Pa cific Railroad Company, calling on him for certain de tailed information necessary to b» furnished to en able the department to order the extension of the Du luth and Moorhead route (No. 18888) beyond Moor head to Bismarck. Qa receipt of such infor&atica the extension theft-oute will' l-e orflereO and. ail practicable maJt facilities provided fyy jhe cit.'^ena in terested. Respectfully, JOHN S. ROULT, Second Asafc. P. M, Gsn•!. HON. ALEX. RAMWIT, St. Paul, Minn, Exploits of Son of the Stars. During the visifc of the tribes of the three, nations last week, John Mason purchased a buffalo robe which is a nat ural curiosity in its way. The skin was taken from a three-year-old buffalo core its hair is fine as silk, and the face of the robe is faultlessly finished. On the face is painted the military history of the Chief, Son of the Stars, from whom the robe was secured. It represents Son of the Stars starting out as the leader of a party of three, his father accompanying, and illustrates the principal incidents in a series of skirmishes covering six years, and is a complete record not only of the scalps taken by the party but of those taken by-the principal actor, Son of the Stars, closing with a contest in which he, himself was wounded arid his horse killed. During the six years he captured 72 horses and took a num ber of scalps. The drawings are rude but ingenious. The robe i« also orna mented with porcupine'quill work in various colors, and hanging to it. are locks of hair from the scalps taken by Son of the Stars. Mason has received many tempting offers for the robe but will not dispose of it. Stenm Ferrj-. Gen. Carlin has written Mr. Emmons relating to a steam Ferry between Bis marck and Lincoln giving his consent to its establishment. He urg/js that the establishment cf such a ferry would greatly facilitate military operations that may be undertaken from Lincoln aiul l-c ti great rovunionce to all per son.* having business there. The con sent. givi'n by Geii. Oan'in of course is snbjcet to the future action of the War Department. The commissioners will probably succeed in securing such a fer ry as is needed. Crowded Out. A column and a half letter from the pen of Col. Lounsberry giving au ac count of a trip up the Heart Itiver, noting the :haraeter of the country wosi of the Missouri, mention of per sons at Fort Lincoln, some account of Dakota farming, and some interesting note* on Indian affairs, is crowded over until next week, for want of space. A contribution on the haymakers is also crowded out, together with a num ber of other items. Success Assured. An eastern banker in ordering the TRIBCNK says Tf succeeding numbers aro equal to number one its success is assured from the start. WHEN in St Paul the editor saw three specimens of Mandan pottery, whole vessels, fragaments of which are picked up on the sites of the old Mandan vil lages in this vicinity. The vessels are heart shaped and hold from three pints to as many quartrs. They have bails at tached and were used for all purposes for which kettles are now used. The bot toms run to a point so of course they were only used by hanging. Their use has been abandoned since the Indians have been able to purchase vessels from the whites. .Those a?t St. Paul aro from Berthold where it is said others may be had. TAB County Commissioners are in a dilemma. The Dakota Liquor Law re quires bonds to be given in the sum of three thousand dollars when a license is issued, but the licenses are out and no bonds have been given, and what is more there is not a man who can give the bonds required as there are no free holders in the county yet. The idea of holding the newly appointed County Attorney responsible for this blunder on the part of the Commissioners, and the Judge of Probate responsible for the low appraisement of property as was undertaken was laughable to say the least. THE St. James Hotel has been secured by J. P. Forster, formerly of the Jack» son Street Dining Hall, St. Paul, and reopened by him in excellent style. The traveling public will find it a first class house. f, Go to Morton's and try that twelve year old Robinson County Bourbon, that he brought from Kentucky. 3. 873. Personal. W. P.

Bishop Clarkson will visit Bismarck in September when au opportunity will be given to those who desire confirma tion. Dr. J. C. Rosser arrived yesterday.

Father Keller preached to a well filled house at Bismarck Sunday fore noon, and in the afternoon at Fort Abraham Lincoln. Rev. J. O. Sloan, of Belle Plaine, Minnesota, will arrive Saturday of next week and commence his labors as pastor of the Presbyterian Church. Hon. Dana E. King and wife, and S. D. King, Minneapolis, and C. W.

He is an old rail road man, now connected with the Penn sylvania Central, and a capitalist will ing to invest $30,000 in Bismarck prop erty when an opportunity is presented. E. B. Morton, who has been spending several weeks at Cincinnati, it-turned yesterday. Morion reports times decid edly dull, atul many of the cities almost deserted, at least'generally avoided, be cause of the cholera. Mrs. .Morton was attacked with it. Dr. Miller, Editor in-Chief of the Omaha (Xeb.) Herald, accompanied by his wife and Mr. and .Miss Thomas, his nephew and niece, visited Bismarck last week. The Doctor pronounce?, in favor of Bismarck and complimented the TRIW-NK in most- (tattering terms. The Omaha Herald, under the Doctor's management and spicy pen, has been and is one of the newsiest papers pub lished on the Missouri River. Hon. Schuyler Colfax and wife, Sena tor Windon, wife and son, and Mr. S. M. Shoemaker, of Baltimore, wife and daughter, arrived last, evening, and af ter visiting the points of interest about Bismarck, returned on a special train to-day. They intended to visit Fort Lincoln to-day, but were prevented by the illness of Miss Shoemaker Dr. Ros ser advising immediate return. They were well pleased with the surroundings at Bismarck except the mosquitoes. The compliments paid the THUU NR by Mr. Colfax, who is a printer and publisher, were highly appreciated. DIED.
