The tain starting before they got on board, some of their party cut loose the cars containing about two hun- dred and fiity Fenians and jorty roughs. The Fe- Miahs demurred at this and a riot commenced, the Toughs drawing their revolvers and shooting in every direction. At this stage of the affair, having run back my train and considering the lives of my passengers in danger, I requested Licutenant Deshler to tuterfere and put a stop to it, He did so in uw most gallant Manner, having to Jead his men some distance up a steep bank under a heavy five before he could forin, Then having formed, with six men he called upon the rioters to disperse, and charged in front of his pariy with fixed bayonets.

Letter from General Hanceck—Numerous Agenctes Visited—Missourl River Indians Quiet. CuIcaGo, June 3, 1870, The following despatch was received this morning at military headquarters:— S1oux Crry, June 2, 1870, To the ASSISTANT ADJUTANT GENERAL, Headquarters Miulltury Division oi Missouri, T have just returned to this point. T went to the Clie, ne agency above Fort Suly and had a con- ave been placed versation with ihe Indians, Troops at the Old Tonca, Whetstone Creek, Cheyenne and Grand River agencies. I have visited all except the latter, General Stanley was there a few days since, Everyt quiet. I have ordered two companies tu the lower Brule agency, eighteen miles be.ow the Crow Creek agency, on ap- lication Of the agent there, Who iniormed me that he could not continue his busine=-s operations unless: troops were placed there. Ey hing seems quiet, but the future 1s considered uucertain along the rver, At Cheyenne, Major Randali’s agency, the only place wheie I talked with the Indians, I ob- served they msde no promises for the future and some of them there, as well as at other places, complained of tiie troops being placed on their reservations. They understand, however, why it was. done, ana seem to udmil the justice of it. My impression is that we shall have no trouble with them on the Missourl river of any general nature if tha government con- tinues its policy of feeding them; otherwise, I have no doubt, Were will be serious trouble, They will be more likely to make trouble elsewhere, however, as they can only trade on the Missouri. The policy of sending for representative men of refractory In- dians clearly would have a good effect and would generally break down their influence with the Indians, I request authority to advertise a reward of $500 or $1,000, say in horses, for the murderers of ihe family on (he Nebraska river. I believe we may thus capture them, and at least produce the effect of deterring others from commiting like crimes for || tear of being arrested through like rewards. I leave by the first train for St. Paul. W.S, HANCOCK, Major General United States Army. RED RIVER.

CONWAY'S BENEFIT.— The assertion that “‘no man is a prophet in hig own country,” although exhibiting @ most excellent ap- preciation of the mundane system of rewards and punishments, is not altogether incapable of contra- diction, It 1s not, hBwever, given to many to find such a fruition of their life service as a general pub- 4ic recognition of the same in the very community nh which that service has been given. But there are instances of such a gratifying attainment, and if evidence were wanted to prove the exception the generous, spontaneous reception accorded Mrs. F. 3, Conway last evening, upon the occasion of a'com- bilmentary benefit tendered her at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, would ‘be sufficient. For years Mrs. Conway has labored with heart and mind, the first always moved by true womanly feellug, and the latter, of no mean intelligence, in the cause of dramatic art in Brooklyn. Under, standing well the influence of the stage aud careful always to direct ii in the cause of truth and virtue, preserving ever an unswerving devotion to its best traditions, she has, both by her pubiic erforts and in private iife, labored for the elevation of the drama to its proper place in the Temple of the Muses, and both by precept and practice furalshed a stirring example in this age of degeneracy, and by her success given encouragement to other in their hope of reform. The Brooklyn att know this, and never lose an opportunity of giving expres- ston to their feelings of admirauion for their favorite manager, Hence to say that tue Academy was crowded last night is simply to record a fore e couclusion. Mrs. Conway was assisted in her D. tion by her gifted sister, Mrs. D. P, Bowers, than whom no moie finished actress im many spe- clullies of a high melodramatic character 1s embraced in the sisterhcod of American artistes, and who, equally with the bvénéficiaire 1s eminent for her efforts to elevate and dignt!y her profession. The occasion likewise served to intio- Guce 10 a larger audience than she had previously appeared before Miss Minnie Conway, @ charming, and talented débutante of the present season. ‘She Pleces chosen for representation, and which were presented with the completeness of finish and ex- cellence of cast that belong io competent manaye- ment, were the fifth acc of the “Daughter of the Regunent,” with Miss Couway as Maric, and “The Hunchbick,” with the following distribution of the principal parts :—Julla, Mra, D. P, Bowers; Helen, Mrs, F. 8. Conway; Master Walter, Mr. F. B. Couway, and Sir Thomas Clitord, Mr. J. ©. Me- Collum. The success of the entertainment waa be- yond doubt, with Jess a able rendition of the several characters; but a more critical—that is, leas friendly, audience -would have been equaily satisfied, the several performers Jolly sustaiping the high repu- tation they earned before severer judges, The audleuce testified their appreciation frequent- ly during the eventing in the usual manner, Woov’s MUSEUM—BENEFIT oF Mr A, L, PARKES.—Tho popular business manager of this establishment had a beneiit yesterday afternoon and evening, which was well attended on both occa- sions, We have spoken before of “Tie Witches of New York,’ which was played atthe benefit, All the characters acquitted themselves commendably and the attendance was a significant proof of the popularity of the manager and benefictare. NisLo’s—MIss THOMPSON’S BENEFIT.—This theatre ‘was crowded last evening. The bill included Coyne's charming comedietta, “The Little Rebel,” and the best of all burlesques, “Ixion.” The features were Mr. Wilie Edouin and Mr. Harry Jackson, The former constituted the principal attraction us Cupid in “Ixion,’” and created @ Juror such as has liom been known in burlesque on the metropolitan boards; the latter as Mr, Poppin- court and Minerva, two entirely opposite characters, proved himself an excellent comedian. Mr. Con. noily, the leader of the orchestra, deserves high praise for his admirable musical setting of all the burlesques of the past season. Without him tae blondes would never have attained such popularly in this city. On Monday he will be succeeded by Mr. G, Opert!, one of the best conductors and mosi fin- ished artists that the metropolis can boast of. The music of “Not Guilty,” the forthcoming sensation at Niblo’s, Will be its inain characteristic. Musical and Theatrical Notes.

The lecturer of last evening was Mr. W nm Anderson, of who discoursed upon Courtship and Sarr hour and @ haifin such « manner as to blend instruc. trou with entertainmet Phystolog solence, the experiences of life, the sayings of sages, the teachings of Holy Writ aud the genius of poi were made to pay tribute to the leciarer in the eluctdation of his theme. He first treated of polygamy tnd divorce, ond then pointed out the physical and mental quali- ties requisite for happiness in martued life. The concluding part of the lecture way deyoted to an- swering the important query “flow to pop tne question.” A number of apt find very amusing anecdotes were interspersed throughout the dis- course, which kept up the mterestand attention of the nudiegce from the bgzuulug to te close. WEST POINT. A Phenomenon that Always Follows a Hop— Its Causes and Effects~A Board of Visitors that Wasn’t Posted; and a Congressional Committee that Hasn't Come to Hand— The Academy to be “Investigat ed”—Can It be Injured There- byt-Tho Continuation of the Examinations West Point, June 3, 1870, Everything has worn the appearance of Sunday At the hotels hereabouts to-day, and if the sextons had only seen fit to help in the deluston by ringing the church bells in the neighborhood it 19 quite likely that even the cadets, who welcome the Sa- bath with grateful hearts, on purely religious grounds, would have puton their side arms and awaited the bugte call to “meeting” long be‘ore nine O'clock this morning. {t may aot be generally known, but itis a fact, nevertheless, that Sunday only comes once @ Week at West Point, Ike almost other Diaces, but it is known that the day after a hop in thia region always looks very much like Sunday, throwing out of view sermons and ritualistic ser- vices, and all that sort of thing. To be sure, the cadets drill all the same and get examined all the same the day After a hop, but then the guests at the hotels are the Ife of the place when the cadets are notallowed full swing; and when they are not riding about and Idling about and the plazzas are deserted the sight is not of the moat cheering kind. Now, why @ hop should have such aa etfect ts more than I can imagine. “AFTER THE BALL.’ The one which took place last night was a right jolly one, and everybody who took part in it lookea fresh and steady up to midnight; but it is more than possible that there is something in the air which affects people after & ball in these mountains more than at any other time, ana particularly after a ball which is enlivened by a banquet where champagne flows in liquid abundance, Indecd, there can be no doubt about it; for when the colored waiters, all decked out in their ninety-nines, with their white vests and unpleasantly suggestive standing collars setting oif their complexion to the most radi- cal advantage, strutted into the dining room this morning they found no one to bow to, not even one of the small boy guests, who are made to go to bed early and get up with the sun for the sake of a lively appetite. They are patient walters for things to turn up are colored waiters, and they had ample opportunity, I must con- cede, to test their prominent virtue to its fullest extent this morning. It was in vain that the dintag room doors were thrown tuvitingly opea, and that the head and front of the waiters walked to and fro and tugged at the same tablecloth to get the wrinkles out of it every time he passed tt; no guest putinan appearance. It was provoking, and he knew it; but what could he do? Tho clerks occa- stonally left their desks and poked thelr heads tuto the doors, but they quickly pulled them out again on seeing the state of the tables and the state of the waiters, What could be done? Hadn't every beil boy in the house neariy knocked every room door down tu vain attempts to WAKE UP THE SLEEPERS within, and hadn’t a baker's dozen of New Yorkers, who had left positive orders on{retiring to be shaken ‘up at five o’ciock, persisted in snoozing until the clock struck nine? Wasn’t it enough to try the soul of any man lifted into good society by the filteenth amendment? Ofcourse it was. The head waiter sald it was, the cook swore it was, and the night watchman, who hadn't gone to bed yet, kuew it was. cot saan f had evidentiy been to blame the night before. It could not possthly have been that «ny- body [had overdone his part of the cham- pagne = business = at =ste ~=s banquet. ~=—s Every. cork that hat been fouat in the “banquet hall deserted,” indignantly repelled such a thought, and when iinally the guests did make their way to the dining room it was evident tat they were as good men ani true should be—sieady a3 judges and with not the slightest sign of a biz supper left upon their placid brows, The ladies, they too came down as jauntily as ever in all the glory of beautiful morning dreases, when they had lecome satisfied that they nad done ‘their part of a@ lial’ day's sleeping, and they bad a smile for everybody. And when eleven o'clock struck, and the Jast guest had convinced himsel’ by edthle proois that his break- fast had not been missed by any fault on his part, the head waiter said, and the other waiters said, and the cook and the night wa'chinan sald, that the hop the night before could have had nothing to do with the way things had gone on, and that there certuinly must have been something in the morning air more o 1 that could have marle the guesis 8a far forget themselves a3 to belleve that there was only #a hour's difference between breakfast aud dinner tume. ; THE LAST OFFICIAL VISITOR. By some extraordinary circumstance or other not yet made public either in spectal or geueral order all the Board of Visitors have turned up wiih the cx- ception of the adinirabie Admiral who thinks too much of the middies to give West Point the benefit of his presence in an official form. Mr. Jthamar Sloan managed to get hero last night in thine for the hop, but he put up at the wrong hotel without know- ing tt. and if he appreciates free board, 1t was lucky that he discovered his mistake when he dit. Ii he had remained at the fashionable hotel where he first put up, and had not found out his misiake ual the examination came vo an end, he would, no, doubt, have been astoun ied at the preseutation of a bill of damages for bos and jodzing; for, be it knowa, the military hote! oa the post 15 obilged to give the Board of Visitors accommodations at the govern- men’s expense, So the importance of an oficlal visitor finding out all about West Point—what scrapes he can get into and hat serapes he can got out of by being properly posted—is a thing which can be counted in dollars and cents. Tals taiportance should be well understood by individuals who have a longing for Board of Visitor’s honors in years that are to come, and then i may never happen agata that a gentieman from any State, by the grace of the President a summer visttor at the Academy, will get into any quarters that Uncle Sam don’t rule over, THAT CONGRESSIONAL COMMIT? ER, The commivtee of Congressinen which, tn accord- ance with the suggestion of the Hera jast June, were appointed to visit the Academy, have not yet, it would apper, shaken the dust of ashington .rom their shoes preparatory to coming here. Who the two Senators who are to form part of the committee care is a mystery hereabouts, and it must be conlessed that the kuow- ledge that Sctienck, Logan and Slocum are the thr: members of the lower house who are to be ol the in- Vestigators causes no small amount of uneasiuess In this ins. itution. Slocum {3 a graduate of the Acade- my and a very strong a'vocate of tts every clatm to popularity and usefu.ness; but his influence on tne committee will be more than neutraized by the redoubtaile Logan, who, d:ring his connection with “th army = durlig the war, believes he fouwid out a great deal that 1s bad ta it which had for its origin wad source certain peculiarities in the education given at Vest Point. Schenck 18 rather douptfal, and tue la of the Academy hope that he wiil su with Slocum In opposition to anytiing that Logan may propose to the undermining of the induen the nsNitution on the army; bat every matter is just now mere conjecture, and noboly can jell with any degree of coratmty what the committee Wil do. The mere fact that what it may or may net do has become a sub- ject matter of diseussion woul imply that it is to come here with ry inember's mind made up at the start, whitch ts rather out of place, to say the least. ‘There is one titng avout this committee, howe’ which should sald, dud (habis raat it will {ind pleaty of work todo wheu tf dues come, if it comes to work.

AUX CaYEs, May 14, 1879, The dispersion and capture of the band of outiawa, under the command of the notorious Sittra, has been finally completed by the capture of the scoundrel himeelf, after he had for many weeks eluded the vigilance of the government troops who searched the wooils foot by foot. He 13 expected here to-day, and will be immediately brought to trial for tits mang etjmes, for any one of which he richly merits the most extreme penalty of the law. No pity is felt here for him, und tf is not all likely that ke wilt obtain any mercy, for he never showed It, and throughout the revolution he proved himself ablood- thirsty wretch. Tue taking of this man ends the last of the movements in the south consequent upon the late revolution, so that there is ever¥ reason to expect perfect quiet for the present—for the arat tume in nearly three years. United States Cousul Weiner, who went at the request of Saget to offer terms to the rebels, and was held by their chief, Deigrace Jacquet, as a hostage for the safety of his own life, was, on the surrender of the Picguets, taken by Jacquet into the moun- tains; but after Jacquet himself was captured and shot Mr. Weiner was allowed by his captors to re- turn, and he is now safe at his post at Jeremie, ‘The Legisiature is tn session at Port au Prince, and * has a great deal of work ¥efore it, The paper money question, which is exciting the attention of all classes, will be taken up, and it ts hoped that some plan for relief from the present diMeulties may be arrived at. Business is rather overdone at the present. The Impeius given it by the restoration of peace has carried ita little too far, Fourteen vessels have ar- rived at Port au Prince from Boston during the past month, bringing large freights. Besides this, we have @ number of sai ing Vesse.s and two steamers froma New York, with full and assorted cargos. Exchange, 281 EXERCISES AT ST.
