The announcement of thir arrival caused a great commotion ia the friendliea camp. Within a short time hundreds of squaws and children gathered in the rieimty of headquarter, hence a view of the bluff beyond which the hostile were stationed could be obtained.

Senator Stewart, however, is not committal to it in any way, biting simply offered it in order to get it in pnui for better examination. Senate. Washington, Jan. 12. The following bills were introduced and referred by Quay: To prevent force and fraud in federal elections, and secure the lawful and peaceful conduct thereof. By Stanford: To provide for the ei tension of the executive mansion. West introduced, by request, a bill to repeal the act amending section 704 of the revised statutes (as to appeals to the supreme court), and made an explanation in regard to it. He referred to the case of the Japanese murderer, Jugiro, sentenced to death by electricity, an appeal in whose cose was denied by the supreme court, and said that the attorney for the prisoner had applied for another writ. of habeas corpus to the same court and claimed he could bring up the appeal on a writ of habeaa corpus as often as he could find new ground of application. Ilia own judgment as a was that no furlawyer ther legislation on tho subject was necessary, but the judge before whom the last application came held that he was compelled to grant an appeal to the supreme court, whenever the ground alleged was different from that formerly presented. So the result was inevitable (if that decision was correct), that sentence of death would be absolutely defeated by continued appeals to the supreme court, which would last during the prisoner's natural life, and would be only limited by the ingenuity of his lawyer. The bill was referred to the judiciary committee. Frye offered a resolution which was agreed to, calling on the secretary of the treasury for copies of reports of the condition of affairs in the Seal islands .of ." Alaska. Dawes offered a resolution which was agreed to, calling on the secretary of the interior for information concerning the leases of lsdian lands in severalty on the Omaha reservation, and the surrender of occupation to the white people. The motion heretofore made by Plumb to consider the vote passing the senate bill to establish a record ana pension office of the was department, etc., was laid on the table aud now goes to the house. The senate then resumed consideration of the finance bill. Piatt gave notice that at the very first opportunity after the finance bill was disposed .of, he would ask the senate to consider the copyright bill. Pollock gave notice, without regard to the copyright, or any other bill, that he would, at tho first opportunity, nek the senate to take up the pure food bill. Allen then addressed the senate in advocacy of.Stewart's amendment. Berry and Cockrell also spoke in favor of it. Allison took the ioor and the bill was laid aside. Senate bill for the relief of Nathan Kimbal, postmaster at Ogden. Utah, allowing him $1,323 for postal funds stolen or embezzled, was passed. Adjourned. Vet the Indians may get within gun shot of the agency and then break away attain, thus precipitating a conflict. Fear of all kinds of punishment for their misdeeds seems to have taken possession of them and it is generally understood that one injudicious act on the part of the soldiery or the mad deed of some implacable hostile would undo all the work bo far accomplished. Lieutenant Taylor, of the 9th cavalry, has gone out with some of his scouts in order to lead the Indians at the proper time to a place designated for their camp within the agency.
