[Special Tele- & Bre.]—The reports of the impo- litic and threating policy of the commissioners in treating with the Sioux at Standing Rock receive full confirmation here. It is learned that un officer from Fort Yates, who passed through Aberdeen early last week, just after the first conference at which hic was present, privately expressed the opinion to a friend that the Indians would never sign the treaty unless different tactics were adopted. He also declared that Judge Wright, in his opening speech to the council, after deflning the terms of the treaty, told the Indians that they must = sign or the government would take their lands without compensation, and emplc soldiers to scatter them among the raser tions in different parts of tne west. ofticer said that when this threat wa through the interpreter the chicfs manifested their anger by grunts and fierce pestures, The officer's Statements were evidently not for publication, as the narrator told his friend that the ‘commission insisted on in- specting all bress dispatehics sent out, Comment here among old settlers and men who ave familiar ~ with the Indiin churacter is to the effoct that the chances of the present commissione curing anythiog nunbe imatures required are .

EVARTS SPEAKS IN OPPOSITION, Mr. Blair Alludes Sarcastically to the Possibility of a War With Great Britain — Matters in the House, Senate, Wasninaroy, August 9.—Mr, Palmer in- troduced a bill in the senate to-day for the purchase of the Portage Lake and River Im- provement cowpany’s caual, ete. Referred to the committee on commerce, Mr. Mitchell offered a resolution calling on the secretary of the interior for information concerning his recent decision in the Guil- ford Miller land caso affocting the title to Northes vific lands, Agreed to. Al bills were passed the senate, ceeded to the consideration of treaty in open executive session, and Mr. Evarts resumed his speech in oppo- sition t its ratification He devoted a good deal of argument to the question of bays ana headlands, and after he had spoken for two hours yielded the tloor temporarily to allow Mr. Hawley to intro- duce a coneurrent resolution that the mem- bers of both houses shall attend the funeral of General Sheridan on Saturday next. At 10 o, and after referring to the complaint made by the democrats that pub- licity was given to the discussion of the treaty, and the complaint of Mr. Morgan against the majority of the committee on foreign relations for stating that the time for negotiations had passed, Mr, Evarts said that he would prepare a comment upon the terms of the treaty, and he hoped ot un un- fair one, but he could forbear to proceed with it at present. The pending question was the resolution for a postponement until Decem- ber next, and a critical examination of th articles of the treaty would more properi find its place when that resolution was dis posed of. When Mr, Evarts ceased speaking the dis- cussion turning on President Grant's mes. suge 1o the senate with a proposed treaty on the same subject was taken up by Mr. Mor gan, who declared that President Grant had ccasion given counsel in favor o and wise policy, and now spoke from his better than any senator had done in the discussion. One of the semators from M, husetts had pronounced him (Mor- silly man because he had atluded to act that war might grow out of the ques- tion. He might be silly, but he had seen enough of war to be afraid of it. Perhaps the senator from Massachusetts had not. Hesaid that the demoer arty was not_going to wake a foolish quarrel, but that if the quar- rel came it would stand by the country, right or wrong Mr. Blair ceastically that if there was to be no war with Englund or Cunada until the discussion on the treaty ended the would be postponed until the destruction of the world by fire. He sup- posed that the object of the senator from Alabama in talking war was for effect in the political campaign at home.

Mr. Morgan referred to the repu senators who seemed to think that his ought to have been forfeited for his position in the late war, as men who had hid them- selves in bomb proofs while they were filling their pockets, and who had never tried to toe the line, What credit could the British gov- ernment give to that set of resolutions, or to the American senate in which they had been offered and debated, except to say that the senator from New Haven did not know what he was talking about, and that his party was not responsible for what he said. After some further interchange of like compliments between the two senators the discussion came to a close and the senate ad- journed. House.

They had both been reading cheap literature. and together had read a novel about a boy and a girl who ran away and lived in the woods together. By what could be gathered from the description the novel was probably the story of “Paul and Virginia,” The more they thought of this style of life the more it enchanted their youthful wminds, until, by arrangement, they arose at midnight and walked six miles to Watcrbu hoping to get away before theirak was discovered, As luck would haveis, however, and contrary to the rules of their story books, Mr, Hard had ocea sion to be'up during the night and be- came aware of his daughter’s empty couch, With a friend, to whom he made known his suspicions, lie drove to Waterbury, where he patiently waited at the Naugatuck station while his daughter and Fred departed for Plain- ville on the New Fugland road. The couple were tracked thence to the Adi- rondacks, There it was reported that they had a tent at Blue Mountain lake, and J. G. Wooster, who was pros- ecuting the search, = found - them returning from North River laden with provisions. They were as bappy as two doves. The girl cmphatically refused to return to Watertown until My, Woos- ter produced papers for their arcest. She declared that they had not been married, and did not want to be, w Fred said the ceremony had been per- formed in Plainville, though he had no certificte. They ecame home with drooping feathers. It was only eight months, however, before Grace had her plumage in shape again, and an honest young farmer named Foote was only too glad to accompany her to the altar. They now live happily on their own farm. Fred passes every duy on his way to work in his father’s carpenter ahop. & B == YL RN = R e I A i THE MICHIGAN REPUBLICANS.
