Michao! Lawlor, who was on trial for being an ac- cessory before and after the tact of the murder of Thomas Sanger, was called to the stand and made a clean breast of all be knew abuut the Mollies. He con- firmed MeParian in even minute particulars and went beyond him in painting the almost incredibie savage- ness of his former associates, The atrocity of tho recent murders was completely eclipsed by a deed ot villany that was plotted and came near being carried out in 1873. AN AWFUL REVELATION. In Jackson Patch, a small mining viliago noar Maha- noy City, lived several Kiikenny Irishmen, who be- longed to a yang known as the sheet Iron Gang. Be- tween these men and the Mollies a deadly teud existed and collisions were not infrequent On one occasion the Sheet Iron men beat some Moilies in Mahanoy City, treating them severely. ‘The society at large’ espoused their quarrel, and it was actually decided to take 200 picked men, led by the eounty delegate, and go to Jackson's Paich in the dead of night ‘The programme was to set fire to the houses of the obnoxious Kilkenny men and either burn the iimates or shoot them down as they tried to escape trom the flames, "The night was fixed and the meu gathered at the ren- dezvous in Shenandoah, eager to be led on to tho accomplishment of this hellish plan. Barney Dolan, the county delogates, did not come. A man named John McDonald, who had a great ucal of influence with the crowd, was appealed to by Lawior and one or two others not to allow the men to proceed in the business. ‘The fearful consequences of setting the houses on tire at night and burning women and children to death were laid befure this potentate, and he was finally induced to admit that it would be a shame to carry out tho plan, The men, however, in- sisted on going on with even without the county delegate, and rejuctantly relinquished their design on being told that their victims where not at their homes. Prominent in this crowd were Michael Doyle, now under sentence o| death at Mauch Chunk,. and Ed. Monaghan, constabie of Shenandoah, now in jail here on the charge oi muruer, RECIPROCITY IN MORDER. Lawlor gave another chapter in the law of re- ciprocity which prevailed over the various divisions of the Mollies, by which one morder wi the thirty pieces of stiver paid for another murder, In consideration for the murder of Sanger at Raven Run a man named Bucky Donnelly agreed to kill a Shevandoah woman, named Riles, whose husband had only a short while before beon’ shot, at night, by unknown parties, McParlan was informed of the design on the woman's life and put ber on her guard. 1n consequence ot evi- dence given by Lawlor, a man named Michael Munley ‘was arrested to-day at Gilberton Wnd will be tried as an accet ony before the fact of tue murder of Sanger, CENTENNIAL MUSICAL FESTIVAL. INTERESTING EVENTS ON THE OCCASION OF THE THIRD NIGHT—SELECTIONS ¥YROM GLUCK'S OPERA ‘‘ORPHEUS"—AN EVENING OF MUSIC AND SONG. Pnitapeurmia, Sept. 22, 1876 The third night of the Centennial musical festival was especially interesting by the introduction of the grand scene from Gluck’s opera, “Orpheus,” the search of the bereaved husband after his Euridice, It was entrusted to Miss Antonia Henne, who sang the part of Orpheus, the Ceutenntal chorus, numbering 400 voices, and Thomas’ or- chestra. ‘the imexpressible beauty of the music of this scene, its simplicity, tenderness and cx- pressive passicn form a remarkuble contrast to the style in which modern operatic composers treat similar subject The chorus commenced with the tearful phrase: O, if in these dark woods, On which broke at intervals the wailing ery of Or- pheus, The lament of the husband, conveyed jn two Of the most churming airs ever conceived by the ine spired author, with their highly dratmatig relatives, was sung by Miss Henne with that finish and care that is only obtainable by an artist trained in the yocal school. The light quality of her voice w: scarcely adequate to the task of conveying with inte Bity the passionate fervor with which the music glow but her method of singing was po ti nng The chor came out grandly in tho warning address of the spirits of the nether world to Orphens, and in reply to his en- treaties tae stern demal was given with the utmost dramatic effect. Tho chorus of bappy spirits was oxquisitely ren- dered, the voices seeming to whisper im tho softest strains the words Come trom out the realms Elysian, The orchestra gavo the wild measures of the pom of the faries with marvellous fire and spirit. Sebilier played Cuopin’s “Kra Koriak Rondo’ ior piano and orchestra, a work which is too seldom board in our concert halls. Her execution of the fanciiul arabesques that are woven around the Polish tremes was fauitiess, but in her general rendering of the work there was wanting that subile spark o! poetry, that dreamy expression, without which no planist can hope to commune with the soul of Chopra, Mme. Schiller 18a vory talented anc finished pertormer, but she can- note regarded, .rom to night’s hoaring, as a success- fultinterpreter of Chopin. Mr. Whitney sang in his best style an aria from Hat del's oratorio, *Joshua,’’ and one from Mendelsohn’s “Son and Stranger. ’” ‘The orchestra played the prelude, choral and fugue by Bach, avapted tor orchestra by Abert; the “Tann- hiuser” overture and Max Bruch’s introduction to “Loreley.”? The three works ure representatives of entirely diflerent schools, und in each the orchestra was equaity at Lome. To-morrow evening will be entirely devoted to Scan- dinavian music.

Via Sipwry, Neb., Sept. 22, 1876. } The counciling of the Commissioners with the Ogal_ Jala Sioux and Northern Arapahoes and Cheyennes at this agency was concluded to-day at a late hour. night nearly all the representatives of the Sioux bands Peacefully inclined had signed the treaty in the exact form in which the propositions were read to them. The question of whether they will remove to the Mis sour River or the Indian Territory is still open, but it is determined by stipulation that they go to one or the otner, They are to send delegates to Indian Terr.tory to examine the country and report to their people. Previous to making their marks opposite their names several of tho chiets surprised the Commissioners by raising forcible OBJECTIONS TO THE TREATY which they had just heard finally road and translated, Only one of them, however, called Crow, with a good voice, refused to sanction it, and he walked uff in high dudgeon. The proceedings were solemn and decoroua, The Indians seem deeply impressed with the.grave im- portance of the transaction, INFLUBNCE OP THE MILITARY, It 1s certain that they would not so readily assent to itinad they not before their eyes the presence of the miliary power of the government Red Cloud is grimly meditative, and his treacherously marked faco betrays a sullen discontent not con- sistent wih bh solid participation in the agreement, Old-Man-Alraid-of-His-Horse and his sons show a candid and sincero tempor and evidently carry with them the strongest influence of any personage in tho whole Sioux Nation except the cbiefs who are on the war path. It was feared to-day that the outbreak of anger indulged yesterday by young Sitting Bull would imnair the smoothness of tho pro- ceedings, but there was no perceptible ill-teeling. INFLUENCES OF THE SPERCHES. Tho speeches made at the signing, howe deliv. ered for politic purpose, had the effoct of destroying tbe good humor with which the Indians at tirst had signified their intention of agreeing to the pro- posed terms, The vile white men who have wtermarried with the Sioux inspired these objections, One of them, named Boucher, who is accused of selling wagon loads of ammanition to the hostile Sioux, bold!y appeared at the Council. A letter of his, it will be remembered, recommending the character of Stabbor was found in Roman Nose’s vil- lage when it was sacked, near Slim Buttes. THE TREATY §s now signed by Red Cloud, Red Dog, Man-Afraid-of- his-Horses, American Horse of the Ogallaias, Afraid- ot-the-Bear, Three Bear, Fire Thunder, Fast-ol-the- Wasashis and Turning Bear, Weasel, Eagle, Snake, Red Leaf, Fire Eyes or White Buil, White Crow, Big Crow, Good Bull, Sorrel Horse, Weasel Bear, Two Lance, Bad Wound, High Bear, He-Takes-the-Evening, Striped Face or Slow Bull, High Wolf and High Foot of the Arapahoes aud Caeyennes. Black Coat, Crazy Bull, Littie Woit, Sharp Nose, Six Feathers, White Horse, Luring Bear, Spotted Elk and Biack give their signatures to-night and others will do so to- morrow. AFTER THE BRULES. The Commissioners will proceed to-morrow to Spot- tod Tail agency to obtain the assent of the Brule In- dians to the treaty. It is not anticipated that they will encounter any difflculty in bringing their labors to a speedy conclusion. Lieutenant Elting, in charge of the agency here, has'inspired tho Indians with respect for his authority, which was anknown when the agent was a civilian. THE PROCREDINGS IN COUNCIL. At half-past ten o'clock this morning tho Indians sent word to the commission that they were ready for another council, and the commission at once prepared forat Ik. The attendance of Indians was much larger than yesterday. WANTS OF LITTLE WOUND, The epeaker was Little Wound, who said yesterday he heard something which mado him almost cry. He has always considered that when the Great Father made arrangements for the railroad through the In- dian country he would pay for it. For fifty years he bas always considered this bis own country, and when it was told him yesterday that he was to be made likea man without a country it mado him cry. Tho different kinds of animals he wanted were not for one band, but for all the bands for alltime. He wanted the Presi. dent to give them each year three kinds of wagons. Ho wishes all white men who have married into the tribe to live with them always, and that it ts not possibio to .send them away any time, Whenever you have set bounds to our reservation make a law that we shail not go beyonce them. Wo wish you to give $25 each year to each of our womien and children. He wished the white men who are living amoug the Bruies and married to Ogallala women to come and hive with them. He wa: willing to sign the papers the Commissioners had brought here on condition that while the young men were gone to the Indian country those who stayed hero should be fed, and that the Commissioners should see to it that rations are brought hore until spring. He wanted the annuity goods issued thom before the cud of the present new moon, as the weather will soon be coll, and you nave forbidden us to hunt buffalo, Ho understood there was $25 each to be givon to them, in addition to the $25,000 they had already received for hunting privileges in Nebraska, When tho agency was established there they had the right togo and hunt, but he understood that when the newagency was cstavlished they would bo deprived of the right to hunt He wanted an annuity of $25 a head in piace of i. BISHOP WHIPPLY’S REPLY, Bishop Whipple, Post (ommissioncr, rephed that with reforerce to the things he asked for they are, and more too, provided for in the paper they are asked to Tuis commission will use all their power to secure their rations for them through the winter, and he hm- self would promise to go to the Great Councit in Wash, ington todoall he could in bball of their peeplo. With reference to the annuity goods, the commission conld not say what time they would gethere. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs had gone to New York to purchase them. They.smight now be on the wiy, and tho commission would write a letter to-day about the matter, As forthe white mem married into tho tribe they would not be interfered with, but the white men who come here to stay a few days and do the In- diars injury would not be allowed to stay. MORE FROM LITTLE WOUND. Little Wound then said he wanted the commission to make haste and Jay the matter before the great coun- cil, and the Indians themselves desired to go to Wash- ington and see the Great Fath They also wished a copy of everything agjd here given to them so that | they could take it to Washington, that there might be no m stake, Colouel Boone said the commission had no rightto cbango tho paper presented to them. He was yiad they had shown an ioterest in the half-breed children, A copy of ail that had beea said should ve given them and the paper presented for them to sign as soon as the secretary could make It out. Bishop Whipple told them to select the Indians they | wished to have sign the treaty and it would be pre- sented tothem in the afternoon, In the meantime Provisions for a feast would be furnished to them, Little Wound said the commission had said nothing about the additional $25,000 promised them for hunting rights, to which Judge Gaylord replied that the Presi- | dent had tried to got it for them last winter, bus could Bot, The commission would do all they could this Winter to secure them that money, but could not promise them any money, The Indians were th informed that the commis- sion wanted the chiefs and two head men of each band selected to sign the treaty at three o’clock this after- Doon. . THR TREATY CONSUMMATED, This ning the commission consummated a treaty with the Sioux, Cheycanes and Arapahoes at this agency, the Indians agreeing to the propositions made to them on the 7th inst, without the change of a single word. The propositions have already been published in full, The following named Indians were selected by their people to sign for the Ogallaias, after tho treaty had been read over and interpreted to thom before signing:—Red Cloud, Young-Man-Afraid-of-His-Horses, Red Dog, Little Wound, American Horse, Atraid-ol-the- Boar, Three Bears, Fire Hunter, Quick Bear, Red Leal, Fire Eyes Man, White Cow, Good Bull, Sorrel Horse, Weasel Boar, Two Lance, Bad Wound, High Boar, Ho Takes-tlo-Evening-Soldier, Slow Bull, High Wolf and Big Foot. The Cheyennes and Arapahoes will not sign until to- morrow, after which the Commissioners start at once for the Spotted Tail agency to consummate the treaty there. To the surpriso of the Commissioners, after the Indians had offered their siguatures to the treaty they hung back, and speoches were made by a number of them bolore they would touch the pen and make their marks, Red Cloud said:— SPEECH OF RED cLoUD, “Lama triend of tho'President, and you mon who Bave come here to see me are chief men and men of in- fluence, You havecome here with the words of the Great Father; therefore, because I am his friend 1 havo said yes to what he has said to me, and I suppose that makes you happy. I don’t like it that wo have a soldier here to give us food; it makes our chi'dren’) hearts go back and ‘orth. I wish to have Major How- ard for my agent, and I want to have you send word to Washington so he can come here very soon, If my young men come back and say that the coun- try is bad it will not be possible for me to go there, As for the Missouri River country I think if my people should move there to live they would all be destroyed. There are a great many bad men there and bad whiskey; therefore I don’t want to go there, A great many of my white relatives have no money. If they are employed to go to the Indian Territory to look at the country I hope they will be paid out of the money of the Grent Father that you have with you In addition to this, I mentioned yes terday that I want to go with my young men. They are Mr. Foot, Charles Gnerque, W. E. Raymond, Aus: tin Leander and Sam Don.” Young-Mun-Afraid-ol-His-Horses said (his is the country where I was born. I have never made any man’s heart feel bad. I have thought the Great Spirit intended I should hive here and raise my chiltren here 1 wish that the Great Father would take care of me, and I couid live here with my children, I give notice {te will take me a long time to learn to labor, and I ex- pect the President will feed me for 100 years, and per- haps a great deal longer. Tho promises that have been made by the Great Father heretofore have not been carried out; therefore I havo been un, willing to go and seo him, though I have been oiten invited. Dr. Daniels will remember bringing back from Washington tho word that nere was where we were to raise our children. I have been appointed to live here, therefore I have never travelled about to seo other countries, You never heard of me behaving badly, With this he took the pen in hand, and as he made his mark said that A is to signify the Great Father has fed and clothed me a hundred yoars and given me wagons and cattle. Red Dog said:—‘I want the Great Fathor tomake haste and send me that man (pointing to Major How. ard) tor an agent, also Besnett and Daniels to assist mo.” Little Wound said :—“I told you before I must have my annuities within two months and provisions to last me until epring.’? American Horse said, in regard to this arrangement about the Black Hills, **It is to last as long as we last.’, Man Afrald-of-the-Bear took hold of the pen, saying, “The others have said enough,” and signedand ro turned to his seat. Three Bears inquired how many Years they shonid sign for; he thought it shou'd be for five generations. Fire Tnunder came up holding his blanket before his eyes and signed blindfolded, returning to his place in silence, Big Foot, who has been engaged in agriculture for several years, said:—I ama tarmer; I wanted 100 wagons, but bave never «een them yet. I am the man who ts going down to seo that country.” Crow With-a-Good-Voice refused to sign the treaty and walked away with quite a show of indignation all the others who bad been selected and were present affixed their cross to the paper, a copy of which was given to them at their request.

He delivered a weil considered address, in which ho sata, substanti. ally, that 1t was no novelty for hii to receive a cordial welcome from the people of America, The compliment | ho did not take as a ‘one, but it was given be- cause ho came out country to do good in bis own humble way. pneoived the idea to foment in America the practice of long range shoot ing, wad the two great matches which had been shot between Ireland and America wero the offspring of that idea In this — Ire- land had Veen well seconded this year by Scotland. He regretted the absence of other tricnds; their absence was a mistake which is more attributable to individu- the country from which they were expected With such accomplished marksmen as tbe veans had, 1t would be impossible to miss the 18 eye ut 1,000 yards, and i$ was a pleasure to seo the skill displiyed by the Americ: Scottish and Ausirslian toams, Therelore, when w miss was recorded, the aseident should be attributed to the ballet or powder, and not to the map, Rifle sboot is a most ghealtpy and exbilerating amusement, a pastime which is*produc- tive of both good bealth and good fellowship. He never saw a bad fellow who was a good shot. He might be an enthusiast on the subjeot of rifle shooting, but it might be hoped that he was a successtul en- thusiast, enthusiasts generally aro successful. The people came here to-night not to hear & dissertation on rifle shooting, to en- courage the good will whieh ulrendy’ exists botween this and the Old Country. He would say that the right men have won. Tuey deserve their success; thero ean be no doubt of that, The fino managoinent of things at Creedmoor did not suprise the speaker when he considered that this is eminently distinguished as a land devoted to law and order, This was demon- strated by the obedience of public assemblages to tho mere requests of those in authority, and might be seen Xemplified in the ulackity with which tho people there resent bad obeyed the simple request of General ‘haler, who asked them to stand farther back. He Was proad to see the police present; thoy were a floes body of n mong whom are many of the speaker's own countrymen. He never felt. pronder of being an Irishr@an than when last ho lett America, He wished the audience a kindly good night, and thanked them for the patient attention with which they had been picased to listen to his remarks. He sat down amid deaiening applause. After eral Shaler ‘had made a few brief re- marks, Colonel MeQonald, captain of the Scot- tush team, was introduced to make the presentation of the Wimbiedon to Mr, J, L. Allen, of She Ameri- can team. Colonel McDonald was cheered fo tho echo, He wade a neat address, in delivering which he gave thanks to the American people for the cordial manner in which the Scottish riflemen had been received. The progfess which long range rifle shooting bas made within tho last’ seven years is something astonishing, He remembered very well when about that time svinq one had made seven bull's eyes and a centre out of cight shots at 200 yards trom the shoulder grave doubts were thrown upon the accuracy of the marker, If the scores that were made 10 the Jate tnternatio match bad been made in those days people would suspect that there was something wrong with the marking. He thought that the splendid score of his countryman, Dr. Mitchell, who had made seventy-two out of seventy-five points at 1,000 yards, would never be beaten, yet it was excelled tno very next day by Mr, Milner, of the Irish team, who mado the hitherto un- paralleled score of fifieen successive bull’s eves at 1,000 yarda, The speaker sat down amid thunders of applause, THE PRIZRS, is the order in which the presenta- The following tions were mace Ly General McMahon—Gatling match,—First prize, Gat- ling gun iwenty-third regiment: second oe silver Jompany, Seventh regiment; hth regiment, third prine By General grand gotd me ford, Seventh re 1 o. third prise, ational Ritle iigeauses: J. ik.
