We would suggest to the Chronicle that a slight regard to truthfulness would not ma- terially detract from the forceof its arguments. Itagain represents us as saying that “large masses” of returned rebels had committed rep- rehensibie acts here. Now the Chronicle knows that we have siated again and again and again thattbere are no “masses” of returned rebels here—that the whole gang of them, all told, Would not amount to an hundred, and that while some of them have undoubtedly misbe- haved themselves, the greater part of their number reprobate such conduct on the part of their fellows quite as pointedly as do our best citizens. ie Chronicle, also, actingon its motto thar all is fair im politics, descends again to repeay the calumny that these returned rebels “no- toriously and publicly took part” in the late election. The Chronicle has again and again been challenged to name the returned rebels who took the part alieged by it in the etection, and has never been able to designate a single individual. These calumnies of the Chronicle Against the people of the District, quoted by the radical press abroad, and taken as matter of fact by radical members of Congress, has done morethan any other cause to create the prejudice existing amongst many against this District. INDIAN ADVICES. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has received late reports from its agents in Minnesota, Da- kotab and New Mexico. Governor Edmunds, of Dakotah Territory, reports a large party of Upper Sioux and Yank- ton Sioux, numbering from five to eight hun- dred. making their way down the river, who were driven ont of their country by the deep snows and the consequent scarcity of game. They appear to be perfectly friendly and foe yioe! towards the whites, and instructions jave been forwarded by the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to haye them supplied with food. Advices lately received by Major General Pope, from Brevet Major Gen. Crose, com- manding District of Minnesota, convey the intelligence that a general desire exists among all the Irdians, except those engaged in the massacre of 1562, to make peace with the whites. Eleven lodges had surrendered to scouts, at one of the stations on James river, and make the same report. It also appears that many of those engaged in the massacre are anxious to come in and surrender, but are ap- ergo of iil treatment. A gentleman from ‘ort Garry reports that some of the Indians (about sixty) engaged in the insureection are now in the employ of settlers along the Red river, in Britis erritory, and an effort was made by the balance to unite with the Black- feetand Assiniboius, but the latter declined, and the negotiations terminated in trouble. Gen. Crose is inclined to believe that treaties may be consummated before spring. Felipe go oe Superintendent of Indian Affairs in New Mexico, gives an account of some murders recently committed by four Utah Indians. Agent Archieleta investigated the matter, and reports that some of the Utahs pro- ~ — = November last with the tile Navyajos, and were opposed by near] all of the two bands, in consequence of which a fight arose smong themee} ves, in which Ca- beza Blanca, one of the chief men, was killed, and some others wounded. This was done by four Indians, (one of whom was the son of Ua- beza Bianca,) who immediately left the tribe, and have never returned. They are held b the tribe as outlaws, and are threatened with death ifcaught. The balance of the two bands are peaceable, and profess fidelity to the Gov- ernment. They ebject to being located ona reservation, claimfg they are necessary where — to protect the frontier against the Na- ‘Yajos. GENERAL SHERMAN ON THE FLOOR. While Mr. Raymond was making his speech yesterday, he yielded the floor, at the request of Mr. Farnsworth, who stated that Major General Sherman was in the hall, and in order that gentlemen might have an opportunity of greeting him, he moved that the House take a Tecess of five minutes. The motion was unanimously agreed to, The a immediately leit the chair, and ing yor General erman, conducted im to the stand amid general applause, both on the floor and in the galleries. ‘The Speaker said: Gentlemen of the House of Representatives, 1 haye the honor of intro- ducing to you this day, by your unanimous order, Major General rman, so well known to you and to the whole civilized world as one of our most gallant and heroic defenders in the contest for the Union which has so happily closed. Of the brilliancy of his achievements for our beloved country. imperiled, but, thank God, preserved, I n not speak to you, as 1 know they will live forever in the gratitude of every beart. Mr. Washburne, of 1ll., proposed three cheers General Sherman, which were enthusirsti- eally.given, amid the waving of hats and handkerchiefs in the galleries. General Sherman acknowledged the compli- ment by saying:—Gentlemen of the House of Representatives: I am more accustomed to cheering, sueb as has been given by you, than pitching my voice to reach the pillars of this Toom, which I never entered before save in those galleries. I can simply thank you from my heart for this reception you have given me. I hope I may continue to deserve the good wishes you express, and I shall endeovor to do ali I can to thatend.” [Applause] Speaker then introduced to Gereral the members who thronged around bim. The five minutes’ recess having expired, the House resumed its business. RECEPTION AT SECRETARY HARLAN’3.
