His followers, about 20 in number, are renegade Pi Utes, Jicavilla. Apaches, and Navajoes, there being no Utes among them. The agent asks that these renegade be punished. and that th bom bastie account of the fight be di at its proper value ONLY “A Way THEY Have.”—With ref. erence to the reports which come by tele- graph from the Black Hills commission in regard to the apparently hostile demonstra- tons of the Indians at the council ground, Gen.

THE CABINET VACANCY.—Now that Sce- retary Delano has finally retired, the public mind is somewhat exercised to know by whom he will be succeeded. The only mem- ber of the Cabinet in Washington is Secre- lary Fish. He state! this morning that he knew nothing of the whole subj-ct other than what he nad read in the newspapers, and If a successor hat been as yet determined aon by the President he had thas far kept ittobimself There is a strong Impression with ma: ¥, BiTeons that the office has been tendered to Clinton B. Fiske, of Missouri. at present the president of the Indian com ston, who heretofore had a prominent co: nection with the freedinen’s burean. On the «ther hand, the Chicazo Times of last Thurs- day, in tbe efitorial columns, has the follow - ing: “The Times has received information from @ source that l- ives no doubt of it re lability, that Secretary Delano will resign the office of Secretary of the Interior some time next week.” Tols much of the articie Yelops into truth. It concludes as follows: “His successor has already been selected aud Scorpted the office. | Who he is has not trans. ired, but he resides jn Ohio, and has here! fore occupied important public offices. Should the Times prove as correct tn its latter conclusion, as time has proven it was in the former, the prevailing sentiment seems to indicate Ex-Governor Dennison as the coming man or Judge Taft. There is, too, a decided sentiment that the new appointee will hail from Pennsylvania, and that the mantie of the departed Delano Will fall upon the shoulders of Wayne Mc- Veigh. Some say Senator Scott has been selected. He would, however, hardly accept it, enjoying as he does now a permanent legal position in the service of the Pennsyl- vauia Railroad Company at an annual sal- ary of $15,000. Others again believe that the appointee will be an entirely new man from the Keystone state. The name of ex-Senator Pratt, of Indiana, at present Commissioner of Internal Reve- nue, is also mentioned. This is the situation up to noon to-day. Those who wish to take their ct So, and the probability is that 1 on to it undisturbed by anythimg of a more positive character util aiter the President returns from his western trip. As Mr. Delano does pot formally vacate the office until Fri- day there is ample time to bring forward favorites and speculate on their probable chances. Itis understood that upon the qualifica- tion of Mr. Delano’s suecessor, Assistant retary Cowen, Indian Commisstoner Smith, and the Commissioner of the General Land Office, will promptly tender their re- signations of their respective trusts. This at least is the general usage under such circum- stances. CONVICTION OF A REVEREND CoLorED SENATOR —The Rev. Dublin J.

HIS BEASORS FOR LEAVING THE CABINET. The letter of Secretary Delano to the Presi- dent resigning his position as Secretary of the Department of the Interior, dated July Sth last, is made public, together with the letter of President Grant of September 223 accepting the resignation. The following is the letter referred to, together with the let- ter of the President accepting his resigua- ton: SECRETARY DELANO TO THE PRESIDSNT. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 5, 1875. Mr. Presiient: | have the honor to transmit With this note my resignation of the office of Secretary of the Interior. You have been aware for some time of my earnest desire to retire from public life, and you have under- Stood the reasons, connected with my private business and domestic al ictions, which have produced and intensified this desire. Last fall, in November, I requested you to accept my resignation. You asked me not to insist upon it, and expressed a desire that I remain in your Cabinet until the end of your admin- istration, or as long as I found it agreeable todo so. At your request and solicitation I declined then to insist upon your acceptance of my resignation; assuring you, however, that T mast resign during the early part of the ensuing spring. When that period ar- rived, and during the months of Aprtl and May, you advised me again not to resign, Which advice agreed with my own judgment! The reasons for this conclusion need not be stated here. Since you were called by your fellow-citi- zens to perform the duties of Chief Maxis- trate, you have invited me, without solici- tation of myself or friends, so faras I know and belleve, to take charge of two important and responsible public trasts—the internal revenue bureau and the Interior department. I was Commissioner of Intérnal Revenue from March, 1869, to November, 1870, a period of one year and eight months. The results of my administration you know, and they are not, I trust, entirely unkrown to my fellow- citizens. The difficulties of this position, and the diligence, care and labor required of me in discharging its duties, you also un- derstand, and of these I trust the public has some correct appreciation. I assumed the duties of the Interior depart- ment in November, 1870, and have discharged them to the best of my ability fora period of four years and eight months. They have been laborious, difficult and delicate. They embraced the supervision| of the General Land Office, Indian Bureau, Pension and Patent Offices, the Bureau of Education and amass of miscellaneous business unknown to any except those connected with the pu b- lic service. ‘:ne business of and Office is very ex- tevsive, and involves the adjadication and settlement of legal questions growing out of railroad grants liberally and profusely made a few years sirce. and Mexican and § nade before we acquired California and New Mexico, and also those growing out of our mineral laws anri targe mining inter- ests, to Fay nothing of those that arise nuder our homestead and pre-emption systems. These cause the head of the department a vast amount of judicial labor and responsi- bility which is not generally understood. The Indian Bureau, as you know, is fail cf intricate, delicate and vexatious questions, growing out of numerous Indian treaties, and the imperfectly defined relations exist- ing between the government and the Indian races. The execution of this service is also greatly embarrassed by the remoteness of the localities where much of it has to be per- formed, thus preventing contact and per- sonal stipervision over the persons employed, as well as by the want of salaries large enovgh to command talent, character and capacity 1 to the duties and responsi- bilities of the position. Many of the important duties of the head ot the department are connected with the material and pecuniary interests of indi- viduals. These interests are often large in amount. The Secretary, in deciding, must necessarily reject the claim of one of the par- hes, and thereby not unfreq uently finds him- self @ssailed by the misrepresentatious and falsehoods of the defeated claimants. I feel confident that a thorough and im- partial examination into the present conti. tion of the public service, connected with each and all the bureaus attached to the In- terior Department, will show to all candid and fair-minded mén that it has néver been in a more are or better condition than it now is; and I feel sure that the most serutinizing examinat.on will sustain the opinion ere expressed and that it will also lea! to the conviction that great improve- ments have been made under your policy in the service connected with the ludian bu- reau. J allude to these matters briefly, to remind you of the exhausting labor which fidelity to my duties during the last six years and four months bas demanded of me. and to show you in part that one of my age requires rest and recuperation. Daring all these years of toil I have bad your support, your sympa- and, as I believe, your entire confidence. been otherwise, I should long since haveretired. As I have said, your political favors have come unsolicited, and therefore have been highly appreciated. You have always lightened my burdens by cheerful, prompt and cordial co-operation.
