The St. Louis What-is-it Convention of Con- gressmen and others that met to discuss, no- tody exactly knows what, and continues its labors by an exploration that is to end nobody (ap to the present writing) exactly knows where, hasswung round the half circle to this point. The ‘“ Congressional Convention,” in- voked in the interests of cheap transportation, and of water tr..nsportation as opposed to that by rail, found iteelf embarrased by propositions so conflicting, and of so wide a range that it became evident that nothing short of some great log-rolling scheme embracing all the different interests, and footing up an appailing aggregate depletion of the Federal treasury, will bring out any practical results from all the talk at St. Louis. A sbip canal around Niagara Falls, the deepen- ing ofthe mouth of the Mississippi, the con struction of canals through Georgia and Vir- ginia across the mountain range dividing the Mississippi valley from the Atlantic, +ere among the incongruous projects urged. (t these, one eniy—the deepening of the mouth of the Mississippi, is likely to stand any chance of endorsement b: strict construction legislators opposed to th, enlargement of the powers of the general govermment; and it is doubtful if any permanent improvement of the Mississippi navigation can be made justifying any large governmental expenditure. The practical re- sults of the meeting at St. Louis were in en- abling the Missouri folks to show the wonderful extent of their mineral and other resources, and to set forth the ground for their faith in the theory that,nothing can prevent the Miasis- sippi valley from becoming the center of human power.” THE RAILROAD TRIP. It was rather a curious feature of the whole business that the cheap transportation conver tion, per canal, should have been gobbled up by the railroads at the close of its St. Louis sit- tings, and carried off in triamph in « train of Pullman sleepers, amply provided with creature comforts, to see what the railroad men are doing in the Southwest. The party left St. Louis Fri- day morning by the Atlantic and Pacific rail- road on a trip that, as originally blocked out, Proposed a visit to Galvesten through the In- dian teritory and a return to St. Louis through Kansas and Sedaiia, Missouri. The newly- finished lines through the Indian territory and northern Texas afford complete rail connec: tious between St. Louis and Galveston by much shortened route. From St. Louis to uita,in the Indian territory, we followed the Atiaptic and Pacitic railroa i completed to that point, a distance of 365 miles from St. Louis in its course towards San Fran- cisco. This road to reach San Fran- cisco in 2,388 miles from St. Louis, following the neral line of the 35th paratlel; while Tom cott’s Southern Pacitic railroad runs some three degrees further south; both lines coming together, however, at Albuquerque and diverg- ing again beyond that point. PASSING THROUGH THE INDIAN COUNTRY. The main interest in the trip thus far has been in the passage through the Indian coun- try. Captain Jack and the Modoc business has brought up the question, “<What to do with them?” to everybody in the country. The anomaly was presented by our day’s ride through the Indign territory of railroads running through one of the richest tracts in the country, and no- where a sign of the usual development and im- provement that follows the introduction of rail- road yea Ged the exception of sn occa- sional hovel, an accompanying patch of ‘almost as cultivated ground, country was silent and unoccupied as the alkali plains of the reat American Desert. The reagon is that there are on 50,000 Indians scattered over a 000 acres, or a larger space than all New England. Two-thirds of this vaet terri and of the portion is arable = nd. passed ugh by the railroad, scarce an acre poor land; but the Indians do not like farm- ing, and they do not like railroads. TALKS WITH THE INDIANS. ‘We took dinner at Vinita, the junction of the Atlantic and Pacific road and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas road, and while there the members of Congress and others held a number of talks with the Indiana gathered at the sta- tion. There are some twenty tribes gathered in the Indiat country, and taeir proportionate numbers are about as follows:—Cherokees, 15,000; Choctaws, 15,000; Creeks, 13,000; Semi- noles, 2,300; Chickasaws, 5,000; and so on, dwindling down to some petty remnants of tribes numbering a few hundredseach, The Senecas, for instance, are reduced to one hun- dred and fifty in number. There are also in the Indian territory about 12,000 negroes and 3,000 whites. The Cherokees and Choctaws are, therefore, the most powerful ot these tribes; and Vinitia, the point where we were stopping, is in the Cherokee allotment of land. A bitter feud ex- iste in this tribe between the Ross party, headed by William Penn Ross, the chief of the Chero- kees, and the Boudinot party, headed by Col. E. C. Boudinot, (well known in W: i) whose father was aseassinated by the Koss gad in consequence of the part taken by him in ad- vocacy of the removal of the Cherokees from Georgia to the present reservation. ‘The Boudi- «ber tie tka hs Bote 'ribal relations, the citizenizi: and the division of their lat in bees gp The plan advocated by Boudinot proposes to give oat Indian—man, woman, and child—-100 acres of land, inalienable for = , 80 that it may not be sold for a pe be! owner; and the remainder of the py pelerds poate pea held in trust as a perpetual fund for the Indians. The plan proposes a territorial form of government, £9 far as consistent with the and ‘The Of progress headed by Boudinot if il it fy F fy | tee i il if bik H ! g i : s H REESE ffl i Hl i E I f $f ft i F U a * a if i iE 5 ig Ht wid 4 f i i f at ry, or lands, have nileometer, devised by one of the cotpa, has deen taken, which, tt claimed, will definitely tle the vexed cabit question.

Jobn Ridge, too, had his love affair while at 1, and married a Miss Northrup, of Con- necticut, am accomplished and beautiful girl in the late chief of the Cherokees, married a Miss Stapler, a Philadelphia Quaker- ess; and the second wife of Lewis Downing. who succeeded Ross as chief, was a Miss Eyre. a Philadelphia lady of wealth and high socia! position, who, full of enthusiasm for the nobie red man, voluntarily a! civilized life to seek a home amongst the Cherokees, and on the death of Dow: 's wife she married him and devoted her wealth to the education of his children. a Of the six children born from the marriage of Elias Boudinot to Harriet Gould, two are now living—William Penn Boudinot, who publishes the Cherokee Advocate, at Talegua, the head- quarters of the Cherokees, and Elias C.

The Cherokees baye a closely organized secret society called Keetoowah, but which out- siders style “‘ The Pins,” from the fact that the members at first wore a pin of peculiar #hape in the front of their hunting shirts, This society, it is alleged, has a “ Danite” feature, under which it assumes to pass upon human life obnoxious to the order. in voting upon the life of a victim, the district councils first take action, and this has to be indorsed by a two- thirds vote of the supreme council, A com- mittee to execute the sentence is then appointed. Boudinot (E, C.,) who is of our party, has been warned that his death has been decreed by “The Pins;” and a dispatch was sent to him up the road from Vinita by a friend, advising him to turn back, asa “committee” of the Kre‘oowah were looking for him; consequently there was a little ripple of excitement when the stoppage was made at that point and various squads of Indians—full-bloods, and others—were seen about the station waiting for the arrival of the train. Boudinot, who is a fine-looking spect- men of manhood, with ageous eye, stepped out upon the platform, and was surrounded by his personal friends, who seemed to be tolerably well armed, according to the custom of the country, and it was evident that if there was any knifing or shooting to be done, it would not be confined to one side. Nothing occurred, however, of a belligerent nature. Among the Indians met here were several full-bloods, and these all expressed hos- tility to railroads. ‘The following is the tenor of & conversation: Congressman.—Why do you object to railroads through your country? Red Man.—We don't want them. Some may like them, but we don’t. Comgres?man.—Don’t you get better prices for what you have to selly Red Man—No; we got better prices before the railroad was built. Produce is brought in on the road cheaper than we can raise it. Congreseman.—How is that? You pay no taxes, have nothing to pay fur the land, which seems to be wonderfully rich; and you are right onthe und. How it that the people of Missouri and of Texas, who have to pay taxes, and ten per cent. on their investment, as well as transportation charges, can send in their pro- duce and undersell ? Red Man.—We like to work inthe same way the white man does; and our law does not allow us to hire white men ta work for us. Be- fore the railroads we could sell all we raised at prices to the travelers passing between ansas and Texas. We could sell corn then for =2 a bushel, now it only brings 50 cents. We could sell prairie hay then for a cent a pound: now it doesn’t pay for cutting. This is wnat the ratlroad has done for us. Vinita, (named for Vinnie Keam, the scuiptress, by some of her admirers in her native West,) is at the junction of the Atlantic and Pacitic rail- road, and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas read, and promises to be a point of no little import- ance when the Indian country is opened up for settlement. At present, with the restrictions upon white occupancy, (except of whites who have married Indian wives, and are thus held to be Indians,) it now consists of a station- house, store-house, and two or three smali buildings.
