Revelations by the Board of Visitors, West Pornt, Jane 8, 1875, For the first time since the examinations opened we have had what may be called a bright day, and that fact alone has put a new phase on the severa! nooks of the hotels. Empty piazza chairs Have not been the feature, and groups here and there of pretty and, of course, cmatry girls hob- nobbing with the officers have given an air of general enjoyment to the place that is quite re- iresning, because so unexpecte There is one thing noticeable, however, about the Point ths Year, and that is it has not come up to past years cu THE QUALITY OF ITS VISITORS. In saying this, of course, { only refer to the transien| for, come what will, the majority ot the permanents, if not always of the créme dela oréme ol society, are pretty well off in the world, high-toned and well educated, and thus able to make quite a display of good clothes and good manners. Still there is none of the old dash. and snap in the place, the rush and fuss on the road of fine equiyayes. In fact, thus far I have not hada glimpse of a private “turn out,” although it is certain that when the season is at its height Cozzens’ Hotel, where ail the grand People wo mean to stay come, there will be not afew. The late Mr, Elaridye and several others of our wealthy New York merchants were always, years ago, in the summer a brilliant part of West Point ile in this respect, and, strunge as 1t seems tO most people, there were at one season actually four fours-in-hand, And what a dash (hey did cat as they rode up the road at evening parade time, and, swinging into the side cut skirting the nortnern end of the plain, corps out on the green with the lively notes of “The Dasning White Sergeant,’ awaking the echoes Jar and near. And then, to add to the scene, were the crowds ihat lined the pathways im irout Of the oflicers’ quarters, awaiting with into line, set of by groups of ofticers in their gay uniiorms, standing on the sidewalk to the rear—a pretty backing to a pretty pic- | ture, But things are different now.

This per- centave business, being an eXtra charge on the cadets, they contend is simply an outrage. In order to get another fund for a certain purpose it Was decided Nere once to raise the price of wasa- ing of THE CADETS’ WHITE PANTS from four to seven cents.

INDIAN AFFAIRS. A FORMAL [XVESTIGATION OF PROFESSOR MARSH'S CHARGES TO BE MADE—COMMISSIONER SMITH ON THE RECENT NEGOTIATIONS. WASHINGTON, June 8, 1875. The Secretary of the Interior to-day verbally askdh Professor Marsh to prepare written charges of what he had to bring against the department im tts condact of Indfan affairs, to which the Pro- fessor replied by asking him to make the reque! ofMicially in writiog, which at the moment ne de- clined, stating that it seemed uonecessary, Since then, however, as Professor Marsh has not com- plied with the demand made of him, and has had ample time to do it, in order that the fact may go to the record, there is reason to believe that Commissioner Smith will prevail on Secretary Delano 'o make tne request in writing. Projessor Marsh will prepare GENERAL WRITTEN CHARGES, not only as atfects Dr. Saville, the Red Cloud agent, but other officiais, and even some of the Western delegates. This will be sub- mitted to the Secretary of the Interfor, who will ask that either a sub-committee of the Board of Indian Commissioners or a special commission shall be appointed to investigate thoroughly all | charges made and to report uponit, Commis- sioner Smith deciares himself very anxious tnat this investigation shail be made and that if there is anything wrong he wants to know It. The re- port when made will be called for at the next ses- sion of Congress. THE LATE NEGOTIATIONS. Commissioner Smith says that he does not re- gard the lave efforts mado in the attempted tn- dian negotiations as failures, as they have been | represented, He /ecls !hat some progress nas been made in the regulation of the new line of Ne- braska and that it will be accomplished, So far as the Black Hilis and the other matters discussed | are concerned he contends that some good has been done with the northern bauds of the Sioux, as they have gone home with considerable matter for thought, likely to result in serious action on their part, whick will dosomething toward the general sotution of the Indian proviem, THE RECENT RAID IN NEBRASKA-~PERSONNEL OF THE COMMISSION TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE SIOUX—THE OBJECTS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED. WASHINGTON, June 8, 1875, - The Stoux have perhaps lost one friend in Con gress. The horses that were driven of yesterday by araiding party of the Sioux tn Nebraska be- longed to the ranch of a prominent Eastern repub- lican Congressman who has hitherto been an earnest friend of the Indians. The commission to be appointed by the Presi- dent to visit the Sioux Indians, 1t is understood, will be announced to-morrow. Bishop Hare de- clines to be one of the commission, though the compliment of tendering the omice will be made. Bishop Whipple, Rey. Mr. Hinman, and J. S. Col- lins, post trader at Fort Laramie, are mentioned as likely to constitute the government representa- tives in one of the most important transactions which has taken place for years, The scope of THE INSTRUCTION of the Commissioners Is as lollows:— First—As the territory in Nebraska north of the Piatte River belongs to unceded Indian territory, which inciudes the hunting ground in the north western part of the State, boundea on the south by the Nivbrara River, the Commusstoners ‘will endeavor to negotiate for the relinguishment of all the vnceded territory in Nebraska, as well | as the right to hunt on the Smoky Hil! iork of the Republican River, in Kansas. This, if accom- plished, will give to the United States lawiui and undisputed possession of all the territory in Ne- braska and Kansas, Second—Yhis concession made would leave the permanent reservation, as at present defined, in Dakota, about which there is no aispute, But that part of the reservation tn Wyoming, east of the summit of tne Big Horn Mountains, 1s regardea by tne government territory, the same as in Nepraska. The Indians, however, claim that the treaty of 1868 secures the territory to them, the same #s in Dakota, the latter being the permanent and the former the hunting ground so long as buffalo are founa within the boundaries, which poundaries include the jamous Black Hills. The Commisstoners, there- fore, are instructed to secure the right of way to the government to construct @ road, which shall be kept open and free from rese vation or lim- itation, beginning at the southeastern point of Wyoming Territory and ranning in a northwest direction to Tongue River, in Montana, a branch of the Yellowstone River; this road to be kept ity mile: tof Fort Fetterman, fifty miles east of Fort Reno and fifty miles east of Fort Kearney, Third—To obtain a relinquishment of ail the ter- ritory west of the summit of the Big Horn Moun- tains included tn the reservation in Wyoming. Fourth—To negotiate for the purchase of so much of the Black Kills as may be found contain- ing gold. The importance of these fustructions does not appear as they are tnus indicated by the Secretary of the Interior, The President is convinced tuat if there are VALUABLE MINERAL LANDS in the Sioux reservation they ae in Wyoming, on the eastern siope of the Big Horn Mountains, the summit of which is the dividing line in the ‘Territory of Wyoming of their reservation; and | the question of ceding orreinquishing a por- tion of the reservation 1s of the greatest tmpor- tance to the peace of the frontier it has been deemed advisable to make the effort at once and — not await future developments. It will also be seen that only so much of the Black Milis as may De jound suitable tor mining purposes will be purchased. The right of way through Wyoming to the northern boundary ana the cession of ali the jands and rights in Nebraska and Kansas are regarded as of secondary impor- tance to tie sale, for a consideration, of the mining lands in Wyoming. NEW HAMPSHIRE LEGISLATURE. DECISION AS TO SENATORS PRIEST AND PROO- TOR—THEIR ELECTION CONFIRMED. Coxcorn, June 8, 1875. Upon the assembling of the Senate this morn- ing the President announced that the opinion of the Supreme Court, touching the matter sab- mitted to them by resolu'ion as to the elegibiity of Messrs Priest and Proctor to hold seats in the Senate, had been received. The opinion was read and ordered to be entered upon the minutes, ‘The Court declines to pass opinion upon the action of the Governor and Council in the matter asa completed act periormed in the discharge oi the express duty required o| the Executive Depart- ment by tae constitution ana fundamental law, holding that such opinion could have no greater weight than the criticism ofone branch Of the government upon th® action Ol a co-ordinate branch. sideration of the bxecutiv jon 1a the matter, the Court assumed that Messrs, Priest and Proc- tor receive tne proper credentials and summons to assemopie with the other ten Senators and take te prescribed oa:hs of oMce, therevy becoming Senators subject to the constitutional autnoriy of the senate as final judges of the qualificattons and elections oF its members.
