THE INDIAN WAR, Confirmation of the Reported Killing and Scalping on the Smoky Hill Rouce—General Custer in Pursuit of the Savages. Sr. Lovts, April 26, 1867. A correspondent with General Hancock's Indian ex- Ppedition sends the following intelligence regarding the movements of the Indians:— Desertgp Casvenne Camp, Tumty Mires rrom Fort Larsen, April 18, 1867. Despatches wero received iast night at headquarters from General Custer that the Indians bad burned three stations on the Smoky Hill route, killed three men, scalped thom and burned their bodies. Orders have been sont to each post on the Santa Fe and Smoky Hill routes, warning all the settlers to befon the alert, and toforming them that the Indian war had broken out at last, and that the savages intended to be trae to the threats they issued during the wioter. This raid is attributed to the Sioux who encamped with the Cheyennes in this village. Genera! Custer bas divided his command, taking Ovo companies with himself to pursue the main body of the Cheyennes and Sioux, and sent three companics of cavalry after the band that committed this raid, who are supposed to bea part of those Sioux that committed the massacre at Fort Phil Kearney. i We strike out for Fort Dodge to-morrow. Indiane Concent: Near Fert Benton— Fight Near Fort Mitchell—The Soldiers Forced to Retire. oe. Loos, April 26, 1867. A St, Joseph despatch says that tate arrivals from Helena, Montana, report large bodies of Crows, Black- feet and Sioux Indians massing in the vicinity of Fort Benton, and it was expected that an attack upon the Fort was intended. A regiment of troops was forming ‘at Holona to operate against the Indians. A despatch from Julesburg of the 16th inst. states that on the previous afternoon a detachment of troops from Fort Mitchell crossed the river and made a dash on the Indians camped five miles above, recapturing some twenty head of mules, The troops took the Indians vy surprise and succeeded in killing seven, when the In- dians rallied and drove the soldiers back across the river into the fort; not, however. without saffering from a galling fre kept upon the retreat by the troops. The Indians remain in force near Fort Mitchell and show a strong desire to Gght, but are evidently afraid to attack the fort. CANADA. Destructive Fire at Paris. Panm, C. W., April 26, 1867.

As at the WASHINGTON. Wasminatos, April 26, 1867. The Argument in the Supreme Vourt in the Mississippi and Georgia Casee—Opinions as te the Result. Tn accordance with appointment the arguments in the Yeconstruction injunction eases took place in the Su- preme Coart to-day, before an audience composed of some of the ablest lawyers im the land and many fashion- able ladies, At the conclusion of Attorney General Stanbery’s remarks it, was the opinion of most of the legal lights present that the motions for injunctions ‘must fall, and that the bills must be dismissed. Senator Johnson declared he should not be surprised if the Court dismissed the bills on Monday next. Counsellor Carlisle avers that Mr. Stanbery knocked the State of Georgia into General Pope’s ‘cocked hat.” Senator Stewart regards the case as substantially ended. Others, aléo, eminent in the law, express the same views. But notwithstanding all this Governor Sharkey’s courage rises, He is exalted when others are depressed. Accord- ingly he solemajy expressed himself, after Mr. Stan- bery had done with his argument, to the effect that the bills would be sustained and the injunctions granted. ‘To use his words, ‘‘We shall succeed,” uttered with an alr of the greatest confidence. But he is alone im the belief, so far as lawyers are concerned, except those en- gaged in thecase. It is barely possible that they hope for success, Senator Stewart asserts that the Attorney General, in admitting that Georgia and Mississippi were States with capacity to sue, and that the Governors of those States had authority to involve them in litigation without the consent of their Legislature, conceded to the rebels the strongest part of his case, but that he still had enough left to annihilate the injunction, He de- clares that the arguments on both sides ignored the fact that there had been a rebellion, or that if such bad ex- isted any disabling consequences followed; but he hopes the Court will take judicial notice of the fact that war has existed, and that it will, in the opinion of the Court, furnish a reason for the passage of the measures com- plained of in the bills before it, Illness of the Secretary of the Interior. Hon. 0. H. Browning, Secretary of the Interior, has been confined to his house with sickness for the past day or two. Yesterday it was feared that his illness ‘would prove of a dangerous character, but since then an improvement bas commenced, and it is expected now that in a few days he will be ablo to return to his duties, The Bankrupt Law. . It may be stated, for the information of those who are iterested in the Bankrupt law, that the rules and , forms which are being arranged are not, as stated in some of the papers yesterday, in the hands of the printer. On the contrary, but a very few of the forms are with the printer, and none of the rules or other matter. The commission appointed for the purpose of settling the executive details of the act, are diligently engaged in considering the many important suggestions made by leading members of the bar through- out the country, and it will be several weeks before their report will be in readiness for the Supreme Court to pass upon—probably not before the latter part of May. ‘This done, the rules and regulations will be printed, io accordance with the reslution of the Senate.

The Japanese Commuiasioners arrived here this evening by the six P. M. train, and immediately proceeded to the quarters selected for them by the Department of State at Wormley’s on First street, between Fifteenth and Six- teenth, not the Metropolitan, as previously stated. Mr. Derby did not arrive with the Commissioners, having re- mained in New York to attend to the forwarding of the baggage, which is delayed at the Castom House for in- spection. The Commissioners did not leave their lodgings this evening, and it is stated that they will not make any visits until the return of Secretary Seward, who will pre-* sent them to the President. it is probable, however, that they may be introduced to the President to-morrow by Assistant Secretary Seward.
