Mr, Hinman, o0 Times New York, March 20.—The wit- nesses in the libel suit of the Rev. Mr. Hinman who have a very un- complimentary opinion of that gentle- man’s character appear to be inex- haustible in multitude. The opening of the third week of the trial to-day trought another batch of them. Mary L. Graves, formerly of Hinman's Chi household at the Santeo agency, was f questioned about finding Hinman in |the room of a servant, Lena Olsen [Hinman, she said, slipped out of the room and went dnwu stairs, and then Lena said to the witness: ““Mr. Hin man followed me up here. He said he wanted to talk to me.” “It's all very wrong,” the witness rejoined, as she went out of the door. Lena said “Oh, 1 'pose he was after me, and I'm not the only one he's atter. Amelia Iyes, house mother of St. Mary’s school at Santee agency, said Hinman's reputation before July, 1872, was infamous. Mrs, Lucy Ross had told her that Mr. Hinman kissed her, and that she felt yery badly about it, The Rev. Burt's testimony was read. He said: ‘I say very reluc antly that Mr. Hinman's vepatac among the various tribes of Indians to whom I huve preached for nearly ton years was bad before 1872, In August, 1876, T went with him to Niobru«ou business, and we drank liquor together at Westerman's office, and at the fand office. On the way home Mr. Hio- man showed signs of intoxication. He became very talkative and found it difficult to keep his seat in the car- riage. After we arrived home Mr. Hinman went into the house and soon afterward went out agamn, T judged that he did not feel well. T have of- ton drank wich Mr. Hinman, but I never saw him so much intoxicated.” Question. You kept sober while he he got drunkf Answer. He was very much under the influence of liquor; and was pretty far gone, while I was but very little under the influence of drink. Q. You have been very much under the influence of drink? ~A. Perhape. Q Haveyou? A. Yes sir The deposition of William J. Cleve- land, who married Sister Lizzie; and is & missionary, was to the following effect: I heard at Spotted Tail agency and Yarkton agency that Hin- man had been intoxicated, and that he visited Indian women, In 1878 Mr. Hinman and my wife, then Sister Lizzie, traveled 130 miles into the Indian country, camping out in tent.” Bradford, Pa.

Captain Bassett's Reminiscences. Fifty years ugo Capt. Isaac N. Bas- sett entered the service of the United States senate as a page. Ever since that time he has remained in the service of the senate. From u page he has become the captain of the sen- ate pages. He is one of the best- known figures in the senate. He occupies, during the session, a chair at the right of the presiding officer. There he is always ready to attend to the confidential messages or errands of 1he senators, and it is from this post that he tries to direct tho uuruly pages supposed to be under his con- trol. His tall, erect figure, flowing white beard.and dignified manners, give him the appearance of a patri- arch. For years this old gentleman has been hard at work collecting mate- rial for a book of reminiscences of his |® fifty years’ employment 1n the senate. The senate snuff-box, one of the an- cient institutions of the senate, is also in charge of- this faithful subordi- nate. In memory of the day when his fifty years of service was reached, the senators have united im present- ing through Senator Bayard, to the venerable captain a haudsome gold snuff-box vslued at $200. It bears the following inscription: Each member of the United States senate has joined in presenting this testimonial to Isaac Bassett, on the completion of the fiftieth year of his sorvices as an officer of that body, in recognition of his personal worth and official tidelity. Dec. 5, 1881. In acknowledgment of this valuable gift, Capt. Bassett addressed Mr. Bay- ard as follows: 1 have this day received from you, as the organ of your associate sena- tors, a beautiful snuff-box, tendered to me, as you are pleased 10 express it, for my fidelity 1 your eervice as & subordinate ofticer in your body. 1 fully appreciate the giftas not only in- triusically yalunblo but for the flattor- ing terms in which it has been pro sented to me, I accept yonr gift and the kind expiessions of good-will which you #o touchingly and feelingly express, and 5o long as life Justs shall retuin it as a gouvenir of the estima- tion which the members of the senate have placed upon my poor services as one of their subordinate officers, and, when death shall still my heart’s last emotion, I shall transmit unimpaired not only the token, but the kind and grucoful expressions of your foelings accompanying the ¢ift, tomy children’s children, to the latest generation, Permit me, in this connection, to re call Bomwe romini e8 of the senate and its ing officers in the past. When Martin Van Buren was vico president ho wuas posscssed of & gold snuff-box. He gave it tome in charce, to keep woll-filled with suufl, and seo thiit 16 was placa mihe vier president’s tablo every day that the senate was in session, At the end of every week thereafter he handed me 50 cents to pay for the snuff. When his term expired T gave him the suuff-box, He lefc the city soon after, and forgot to give me the 50 cents that he had always given me at theend of each week, Henry Clay was very fond of a pinch of snuff, and enjoyed it much. He would otten stop in the midst of 4 speech aud call a page to bring him 4 pinch of suuff, and if he could not see any one of the pages he would leave his seat and walk up to the vice president’s table, take up the gold snuff-box, take a pinch, and, returning to his seat, re- sume his spuwh Richard M. Juhn- son and John Tyler were neither of them snuffers, and therefore T had te l.‘urui-h my own snuff-box; but when ! atealing hundreds of mules and horses, tge M. Dallas was vice pmml. nt hn bmught with him a very handsome gold snuff-box and gave it to me in charge, and after his term expired I returned it to him. When Millard Fillmore was vice president he ob- jected to having a snuff-tox on the table of the vice president, bocause, in his opinion, it interfered with the business of the senate. Senators would come up and slop to converse with each other, and disturbed him 80 much he could not hear what was going on in the senate. Kver eince that period there has been placed on each side of the senate a small snuff- box fastened to the wall. Concerning the Crows. W. T. Hamilton, an old trapper of the Yellowstone country, contributs the following views to The Bozeman Courier on the Crow question: The Big Horn river was formerly, the western boundary line of the Crow hunting grounds. Twenty years ago Fort Union, opposite the mouth of the Yellowstone river, was their trading post. Afterwards Sarpio abandonod the posts on the Yellow- stone. In regard to the ‘“‘triendh. ness” of the Crows, I can prove of their killing nine white iden and You, ns well as all old eitizens of Bozetcan, kuow that in 1868.9, if it had not been for Cap La Mote and the force under his command, the sottlers of Giallatin vatley would have bad trouble with the Crow Indisns. The land sulsdy was eranted to the | Northern Pacific railrad company iu 1864, and the Crow {reaty sas not made until 1868, 1t was concluded at Fort Laramie - Gens, Auger, Sherman and others represent- ing the government, and Perry Chien and John Renshaw, representing the Indians, It was stated to the goverument commission- ers that no portion of the present lands ceded to the Crows was occu- pied by white men, or miners, If t at portion of Montana Territory had been fairly and truthly ropre- sented to the commissioners at Lara- mie, neither Boulder, Stillwater, or any other portion of that mountain- ous country west, wouid have been ceded to the Crow Indians, In re- gard to the Crows iz desperate fighters and a general terror, I wil admit that, should ‘h.y break cut in open hostility, they way kill a few white men and ateal a few horses, but will vouch that, inside of twenty Ay s er a declaration of war, very few Crows would bs left in Montana, The Crows, to n man, s evary white man in Moutana, myselt not ‘\u\ln'(ul The cream of Montana is row reservation, and it wouldbe y justice to tho citizens of the tern portion of the territory to have it thrown open for settlement.

Forsaleby 1)1y Tsi & McManow, Omaha. —_— ‘Who Located Des Moines Oskaloosa Standard. In the pleasant oftice of the most perfect livery barn in the state, we sat with some of the old citizens watching with some interest the con- test in the Fourth ward, Oskaloosa, as to the straight republican and cii- the oldest Roman of them all, was Hon. M. T. Williams, who incidental- ly renarked that he chose the spot whereon the Towa hub and axel rests. In other words, was one of the com- missioners to locate the county seat of Polk county. Oune, a Mr. Pinneo, was sick and did not go out to look the country over, and the other, whose name we have lost, also tarried with the snuff, or at home, while Mr. Williams with about a hundred sol- diers rode all over those hills and vales to determine by the topography of that howling wilderness and by compass and chain the very best site for the capital. The captain of the post (Rice, we believe) furnished Wil- liams with a finely caparisoned ‘‘cali- co” horse to ride; and most patiently did he with his escor: and surveyor look the country over for some days, ‘At last,” pays Williams, ‘‘We found the finest natural si e in the world for u great city, an amphitheater of hills, gently sloping to a nearly circular valley, where the atakes were driven and we decided to rest,” A few people were contered near the forks, or raiher the iunction of the "Coon und Des Moines rivers, then. This was about September, 1846, Yet there wero enough to take a western interest in 80 important an event as county seat location; and that evening Mr. Williams met some two-hundred of these neur the river by some kind wore piled, and from one of theso he wade a speceh, giving his reasons for locating the county seat there, and further stated that ho not ouly had chogen the place for their county seat, but “also that of the tuture capital of the state,” whereupon they hoisted him higher than the barcels, wud o0 their shoulders bore him about as the hero of the hour, Time L.s fulfil'ed hie prophesy.
