WHAT THR S10UX WANTED.| They destred to have given them by the Great Father, in return for the Black Hills, the support of the nation for seven-generations, or over 200 years. In ad- dition they wanted yoke cattle, cows, sheep, horses, hogs, fowls, farming utensils, guns and ammunition, and, moreover, enumerated a hundred articles of food and clothing, which they wished sent them as annuity goods, They wanted houses, schools, sawmills and Civilized furniture.

Spotted Tail said the spoke for the tribe, The amcants offered were too small, and they could not agree. It was not the fault of the Commissioners nor of his tribe. They had better let the matter rest and post- Pone the treaty for the present. Spotted Tail apolo- gized for saying on Monday that the Commissioners were drunk. He meant only a jest, LONB HORN’S ASSUMPTION. Lone Horn rode into the council on horseback and claimed to own all the country. CONCLUDING WORDS.

This question came ‘on an application from the Illinois Central Railroad Company to abate the tax assessed at the rate of five per cent, claiming that two and a half per cent was the logal rate under the fifteenth section of the act above- mentioned, THE RETIRING SECRETARY. HIS REASONS POR BEING FATIGUED—PAST SUC- CESSES IN OBTAINING A LITTLE REST. Wastxetox, Sept, 80, 1875. In his lettor of resignation, Mr. Delano said:—\ allude to these matters to remind you of the exhaust- ing labor which fidelity to my duties during she last six years and four months has demanded of me, and to show you that ono of my age requires rest and recuper- ation.” This was intended to be understood as serious, but here it is regarded as an itn- mense joke, When Mr. Delano entered upon the duties of Commissioner of Internal Revenue, he went to Mount Vernon for a few days on business. His home visit was, as he said, to got a little rest, which one of his ago required, But the announcement went by telo- graph that he would be in Mount Vernon for several days, and so great was the visitation of pogsonal friends when he reached home that he returned to Washington immédiately to get, as he then expressed it, in 1869, A LITTLE REST. His absence during the time he was Commissioner is not taken into account; but during the four years and eight months he was Secretary of tho Interior he was absent in 1870, 28 days; in 1871, 130 days; in 1872, 181 days; in 1873, 148 days; in 1874, 150 days, and in 1875, 105 days, making a total of 742 days, or two years, one month and seven- teen days. NOTHING KNOWN CONCERNING THE APPOINT- MENT OF DELANO’S SUCCESSOR. Wasuincron, Sept. 30, 1875, No information has yet been recetved from the Presi- dent.as to his selection of a successor to Mr. Delano, There ts no doubt that a week ago he intended to offer the position to Mr. Dawson Coleman, but as yet there ts nothing positively known here concerning an ap- pointment to fill the vacant Secretaryship, Persons in official position say that the first official notice of the appointment that will reach Washington will probably bo the commission of the new Secretary. CIVIL RIGHTS AFTER DEATH, THE DEAD NEGRO WHO WAS REFUSED ADMIS- SION INTO A WHITE CEMETERY. Pumuavetrnta, Sept 39, 1875. It appears that the Mount Moriah Cemetery, the Su- perintendent of which refused to permit the interment of the body of Henry Jones, the colored caterer, {s, to acertain extent, afraud. The cemetery has no legal Board of Managers chosen by the stockholders, is under the control of the family of the late George Connell, who run it as a speculation, and that the reason for re- fusing the use of a lot to the family of Mr. Jones, who had bought and paid for one, was not because an im- mense wajority of the lot owners clamored against it, but because the Connell family iooked at it {rom a busi- hess point of view, and thought it would injure the gale | of ground. These are the statements of Mr. Thomas W. Price, who is the largest lot owner in the cemetery, having deeds for about 30,000 feet, which he took to satisfy acclaim. He had never heard of the Board of Managers, who, the Superintendent claimed, ordered him to refuse admission to the body, and he did not be- lieve in the existence of any such board, He has neyer heard of any election by the stockholders, and de- nownces the whole proceeding of refusing Jones a burial as an ovtrage, There is considerable feeiing in this city on the motter, AMUSEMENTS, THE ENGLISH OPERA SEASON.

What can we do?” One of the polcemen on duty in front of the door said, “I had $400 there last week, but my wife coaxed me to take it out.” A butcher, doig business on Second avenue, deposited $1,450 last week, fearing to keep it in bis own house until to-day, n he wanted to use it, Hundreds of poor people flocked around the doors early in the morning, for the news of the failure spread like wildfire, and all earnestly denounced the managers of the bank for their supposed mismanage- ment While the crowd were waiting outside the Heratp reporter went into the directors’ room in the rear, and met Mr. W. S. Carman, the late Secretary of the bank, now the Receiver. STATEMENT OP THE RECEIVER, Mr, Carman said:—‘‘We held a consuligtion of the Board of Directors last week, after a thorough exami- nation of the affairs of the bank, and decided that it was necessary for the safety of the deposiwre to wind up the accounts of the bank immediately. Mr. Batos, the president, and myself were directed to proceed to Albany and state the condition of the bank to the Su- perintendent of the Bank Department. He then took the necessary steps to close the concern, In order to “prevent alarm = among our de- positors, which might result in @ panic and arun, I deemed it advisable to continue receiving de- posits until we had the machinery in order to protect every one. Last Saturday morning, acting upon that idea, I made the paying teller, Mr. Mott, trusteo for all deposits handed in after that timo, with orders to put sach deposits in separate envelopes, with the depositor’s name and address on cach envelope. It was my intention to return all those en- veloped deposits as soon-as we closed our doors I asked a friend of mine, a lawyer, if I could do 80, and he replied, ‘Certainly you can.’ "” Reporrkn—Are you gomg to return thom? Reckrver—Well, that is where the trouble lies. Since that timo { have been made receiver for the creditors, | and have been advised that I, as a receiver, have no Tight to return any deposits oF any part of them except prordfa, 1 sbali take further advice on the subject be- Tore taking. action. Reroxten—How many depositors have you on your books? Rxceiver—About soven thousand eight hundred, Rerorter—<re the deposits received since Saturday morning entered on any of your books? Ruceiven—Not yet. I supposo they will have to be entered and considered part of the aséets of the tusti- tution. RurorTeR—Will you tell me, as nearly as you can, the total amount on deposit? Reckiver—It is difficult to give exact figures at present, Our accountants are busily engaged in closing the books preparatory to making a geueral statement which will be ready for the public about the later part of next wock. As nearly asI can estimate the total amount on deposit will not fall short of $1,350,000, and it may reach $1,375,000, making an average of about $175 per head. RerorrER—What led to this suspension? Reoxiver—The main cause was depreciation in the value of real estate, Most of our funds are locked up in real estate, upon which we cannot realize, Take this bank building. It cost us about $195,000, If we putit under the hammer to-morrow it would not real- izoover $100,000, We have some valuable property on Fifth avenue, near Bighty-sixth street, valued at $80,000, that will not sell ww-day for moro than $40,000. We could have gone on by sacri- ficing securities at such rates and have continued to wy those depositors who came first; but there would have been nothing left for those who came last, and in justice to all we have placed ail depositurs on the sume footing. Rarorten—From what you know of the assets and Liabilities of the bank, whai dividend do yeu think you will pa Rxckiver—I should like you to say the worst at once. Let them be prepared for that, and if we tind we can do better, thege will bo no disappointment, I thik that without doubt we can pay tilly cents on the doilar if everything was sold unger the hammer to- morrow; but if we can nurse the property, aud wait a Little for an advance in reai estate, we shall’ be able to dispose of it at better advantage, and may make a divi- dend of seventy-five per cent, | As soon as we can get our statement ready we will send it to the Henan, Throughout the evening the gidewalk in front of the bank was lined with anxious inqurérs whose earnings were thus suddenly locked up. ‘They gauseda moment infront of the policemen guarding the steps, then, passing up to the door, read the sign hung there and quieuy walked away. INTERVIEW WITH SUPERINTENDENT ELLIS. Atpaxy, Sept 80, 1875, D, ©. Ellis, Superintendent of Banks, was inter. viewed at Congress Hall to-night on the subject of the failure of tho Third Avenue Savings Bank, and said | that there noed be no fear of a general panic or even of any very disastroug depression in consequence, He had mado @ thorough examination of all banks throughout the State, and could assure the public that there was | not another unsafo bank in it, PAST CONDITION OP THE DANK. pled condition, he said, ever since the disastrous ran upon it some years ago, which lasted ten weeks. To meet its daily ¢ ands at that time it was compelled to part yith its best securities and make heavy loans at rumous rates. Since then it had contracted an unfortunate loan upon some Atlantic Ma ck, and as secarity was compelied to take a large amount of real estate in Tarrytown and oa Forty-seventh street, which, while very safe property, was neither productive nor avatlable. Supervisor Elis has had his eye upon the bank ever since he came into office, DISTRUSTFUL OF ITS ABILITY to continue payment of the heavy divideads which It declared every six months, and freqent examinations have been mide under his direction. Whilo these dis- closed the fact that the bank was deficient groatiy, the heavy interests mvolved and the best of the depositors, of whom thore are 8,000, inostly thrifty mechanics and shopkeepers, seomed to him best served by indulgence to the bank, He had hoped that a revival of business and judictous nursing of their resonrees would enable the managers to make their assets good, aud thus save the | depositors, |e LOSSES OF THR RANK. Bat it soon became evident that the bank was losing money at the rate of ne $50,000 a year, and an ex: amination, made a few days ago by Mr, direction, showed that, with its real estate and a large amount of Southern securities, in which it had unluckily iuvested, counted at their estimated value, the bank was de- | fictont $219,000, Mr. Ellis at once laid the case before the Attorney General and requested the appointment of a reveiver, which was done. VALUR OP THE PROPERTY. In Mr. Ellis's opinion, the property of the bunk, in- cluding its building on Third avente, which cost $200,000, will bring nearly eighty per cont of cost price, if sold by proper negotiation, aud hardly fifty per if sold under the hammer.
