NEW YORK, HERALD, MONDAY, JANUARY 21 1867. WASHIN' GTON. Wasuusoros, Jan. 20, 1867. Governor Swann’s Seuatership Doubttw An interesting deadlock exists in the Maryland Lo- Gislature that promises to defeat the supposed matured Plans of Governor Swanu for the United States Senator. ship, There is a State law in force requiring the selec- tion to be made from the residents of the eastern shore of the State, and Swann being a resident of Baltimore is consequently ineligible until this troublesome statute is repealed. By a provision of law it is necessary that a majority of the whole Senate shall vote for its re. peal, thirteen votes constituting a majority. The Presi- dent of the Senate has no vote except in the event of a tie. as that body now stands there are eight radicals and four democrats, who cannot disregard the rights of the eastern portion of the State, while there are only eleven democrats, without the President of the Senate, who are supporters of Swaun. Should one of the east- ern shore democrats be won over to the Swann interest the radicals cam prevent a successful vote by retiring from the Senate, The game seems to be completely in the bands of the radicals, and a violent turning of the tables is threatened. Indian Affairs. Colonet A. B. Norton, Superintendent of Indian Affairs in the Territory of New Mexico, in his report to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, makes the following recommendations in relation to establishing the wild bands of Indians now roving at liberty over the whole Territority, on suitable reservations, where they can be controlled and prevented from committing the murders and depredations which have so frequently occurred of late, The Megcalero Apaches, in the southeastern portion of the Territory, and the Mimbres and Mongolon Apaches have become troublesome and are depredating upon the stock of the farmers and on trains passing through the Territory. The Mescalero band, Supetintendent Norton recommem#is to be placed ona reservation on the Rio Benito, directly south of Fort Stanton, and the Mimbres and Mongolon bands in the southwestern part of the Ter- ritory to be placed on the ofd Apache reservation on the headwaters of the Gila river. He advises that the Capote and Womanucheutes, in the Northwest, numbering about two thousand four hundred, be located onthe San Juan river or the Rio Los Animos, still farther to the North- west, and for the Mohuachie and Jicarilo Utes, who have intermarried with each other and manifest a reluctance to leave the region of country where they now are, he recommends that the goverment purchase the Maxwell ranche, which is forty miles wide and sixty miles long, abundantly supplied with good water and well wooded. ‘This ranche can be purchased for the sum of $250,000, and as it is situated close to where the Mohuachie and Jicarilo Utes now are, the great advantage to the government, the superintendent suggests, would be that these Indians would dwell peace- ably and quietly there in contentment. ‘The Navajo Indians are morose and discontented upon the land assigned to them, Thoy were removed by com- mand of Geveral Carleton, commanding Fort Stevens, for misconduct, from their section, one hundred and fitty miles west, to a spot two hundred miies east of the Rio Grande, “The tract on which they were established is rolling prairie and entirely unsuitable for the purpose. There is no wood, and for fuel the Indians are com- pelied to carry mesquite roots on their backs for a dis- tance of five miles, and in the rigors of winter the suf- foring among them is great, The water is also very bad. Colonei Norton states that, since the fight Colonel Alex- ander bad near Fort Stevens with Kab-na-ats and his band of Mohuachie Utes, General Sherman has ordered the abandonment of the fort and the indinns have bern quite peaceable. Travelling on the Sante Fe route is perfectly safe and uninterrupted. General Land Once. ‘The Commissioner of the General Land Office has just Tecelved returns of surveys of the public lauds from the Surveyor General of Washington ‘Territory, embracing ‘townshipe nine and ten north of range twenty-two cast, and nine north rauge thirty, east of the Willamette ‘meridian. The first township borders on Yakame river, tributary of Columbia, and the iast one at the confluence of the Columbia with the Snake rivet. The foregoing surveys are situated east of the Vascade Range of moun- tains, Internal Revenue Receipts. ‘The receipts from interna! revenue yesterday amounted to the unusually low figure of $192,726, making a total for the week of $2,260,789, and a grand total for the fiscal year up to date of $177,731,974. The smallness of the receipts for Friday and Saturday is readily ac- counted for by the fact that all trains into this city from the North have been checked by the late heavy snow storm, thus cutting off the means of receipts. ‘The Killing of Uniou Seldiers in South Care. lina. The House select committee to inquire into the killing of certain Union soldiers in South Carolina and the dis- charge of the persons convicted of the crime bas sum- moned as additional witnesses Major Generals Sheridan and Thomas and Secretaries Stanton and Browning.

He states that the people of Illinois are generally in favor of impeachimg the President, and think he should be arraigned for the high crimes and misdemeanors of which they believe he has been guilty since his accession tothe Presidential chair, On the question of impeachment General Logan declines to express an opinion, assigning as his reasons therefor that he will be one of the jurors in the case, * A Distinguished Arrival. i Among the distinguished arrivals in Washington yos- terday was the advent of a stranger in the person of a young daughter at the house of Secretary McCulloch. END OF THE RAILROAD WAR. SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD. Terms of the Settiemont—The Investigation to be Continned by the Assembly Commitier. Aumayy, Jan. 20, 1867. ‘The difficulties between the (Hudson River aud New York Central Raliroads have been arranged, and the old system of running and connecting cars wil! be resumed to-morrow morning.
