Continuation of the of the Charges JInilc by Pro- fessor Marsh. 15. The Red Cloud commission met strain to day. Senator Howe was present, and Mr. Smith, of Indian affairs, read a statement in reply to the of Professor Marsh against him. In his statement Smith says that about the twentieth of April Professor Marsh ca'led at his office bringing packages of coffee, sugar, flour and tobacco, which he had brought from the Red Cloud thtt he made no charge of fraudulent trans- actions on the part of Saville, except in ine name oi tu Uiouo, whose state ment he had not much confidence Id. The interview with Professor Marsh was a pleasant one. The next morning an account of the interview appeared in a New York paper, giving an incorrect and unfair version of it, and he expected that as a matter of courtesy and honor the professor wouiu at once correct it, but he did not make any such correction. Shortly afterward Professor Marsh was invited before the board of Indian to whom he gave a much more extend- ed account of his Red Cloud and inference", whinh resulted In the of a .' ii. -- . i.i to in quire into the whole mt ( .

The then states at length the three charges of fraud and wrong, which Professor Maish endeavors to fasten upon the Indian of as to shielding the contractor by false second, that he has been made with wrongs at tne iteu uioua agency, but nad ta&en no measures to prevent them; third, of fraud, or connivance with fraud, in connection with the ser- vice. To these charges the giveB an emphatic denial, and shows that they are not true. The says Professor Marsh is entirely wrong when he imputes to him any un- worthy motives for the part he has taken. In relation to his complaints re specting Indian affaire, Professor Marsh's statements and were so much after the old stereotyped form, with which the had become familiar and which every man seems to learn by heart the first day out oi uneyenne, tnat ne did not attach much value to them; and it was, there fore, not unlikely that he showed feel ings which would be natural when be suspected that Professor Marsh had come as the bearer of Red Cloud's com plaints, because of his belief that Red Cloud had been badly treat- ed, and that the Indians had gotten tne better oi tne professor. Tne says that he is not aware of any by word or his part, trom which Prof. Marsh was entitled to infer that he desired to pre- vent .he publicity or exposure of the fraud. He had had but one desire and ambition, as of Indian af- fairs, and that was, to do to lift two hundred and seventy thousand peopls out of a barbarous and condition into civi- lization and American No could be offered to make him desire to shield from exposure and any man guilty of defraud- ing ignorant, helpless and wretched men. Prof. Marsh had, in fact, though probably without done ull that he could to destroy the good name, and take from him the good opinion of good men.

Red Cloud Agency, 14 It having been finally determined to hold a council at the month of White Clay creek, six miles northeast of this post, tbe Indians are all moving in that direc- tion.

Senator Allison Soys that as csenatoriiowe nasreturneu io wasnmjr-- i ton he is unwilling to proceed with until General Terry arrives. A great many Indians are becoming dissatisfied at delay, ss those living at a great distance are desirous cf return- ing home before cold weather sets in. Attaches cf this agency are besieged by Indians with inquiries as to the cause cf delay and when the council will begin. The commission has been together three weeks now and thus far have nothing beyond having an informal talk with the Indians who have visited them, at none of which was there a word said about agreeing upon a day for the meet- ing of the council, the In- dians have been left in utter Ignorance on that point. Saturday, live hundred and fifty head of beet were issued to the Indians, and a large train with additional supplies came in from Thus far no definite amouL t has been spoken of as tbe purchase price of the Black Hills country, and on this point the Indians are very anxious. They are perfectly willing to sell, and will take whatever is offered them, aa they say the white men are going to oc- cupy that country any way, and It is thought the commission will not offer the Indians much money, but will provide for their sustenance for a long term of years, whish would be preferable for all parties, as tbe mti3t support them any- way. A large of Missouri Indians waited on the last Saturday, and expressed much because the had not moved down to Sbadron creek, twenty-fiv- e miles from here, and half way to the Spotted Tail agency, as they said Rev.

The number cf Indians who will attend the council is estimated to be about twenty-liv- e thous- and. Their camp extends the distance of about forty miles along the White Earth river, and the bluffs in this vicinity are covered with their ponies, each head of a family owning on an average fifty ponies. The ponies are all in excellent condition, and the Indiaus themselves are well clothed and healthy. A good looking Indian girl was shot near the entrance to the agency stocka'ie, on Saturday night, by an In- dian tall grazing her chin. Ohio Politics. 15.

Pi ev- ident Jewett, of tho Erie railroad, to-ds- y received by cable from tbe bond and shareholders in England a proposition to issue fifty per cent, more of common stock, one new stare for every two now, which means that supposing the price of twenty-fiv- e dollars to be obtained, an amount of ten ml. lion dollirs cash will be secured. If this arrangement can be effected, It is proposed to narrow -- jauge the line, including tbe purchase of a large amount of new locomotive stock, tbe gauze of which cannot be altered, t o complete the steel railing of the main line and to open up the coal Iine3; to complete the doutle track on the main line, improve sidings, stations, etc, alter the grading and curves to such an extent as will be attended with econ- omical advantages and add to the roll- ing stock. The totsl amouut to be expended in these improvements is eighteen million dollars, th whole to be expended over the next two years, dur ing which period the new shares would be paid up by half-yearl- y instalments, and tbe capital of the company would then consist of seveniy-on- e mill- ion dollars of bonds, and one one hundred and seventeen million dol- lars of ordinary shares. Prior interest charge at seven per cent, would be five million dollars, and rentals, at most, one million dollars; total, six million dollars, with a line finished and equipped. As it is proposed working expenses should be b'- uht down to sixty per cent., and traffic within three years from now should be at least twenty-f- our million dollars per annum, affording a net revenue of nine million six hundred thousand dollars per annum, meeting all bond and preference liabili- ties and leaving three per cent, on or- dinary shares.

The deceased was born In Caskaskia, Illi- nois. At tbe ago of seven years ber parent settled In Memphis, where the whole of her life was passed, with tbe exception or a rew years spent In her native State dnrlng the war. On the 8th of June, 1854, she was united In marriage to Mr. Charles P. Wiley. This roved a very happy union; for she gave to E er husband the unselfish devotion of a lov- ing and faithful heart, which, being appre- ciated and reciprocated by him, their lives blended harmoniously, and peace and happi- ness reiffntri In the nniet hnnsehold. In tho spring of 1868 she united with the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church in this city, In the communion of which she lived an acceptable and consistent member In tho hour of her deah. exemnllfvinEr ever in her life and conduct the pure principle of our noiy religion, as io tne precise utne wnen sho gave her heart to God. we are not In formed; probably in early life; for from her eariy girinooa ner minu seemeu io nave a re- ligious bent. In her last Illness, which was lingering (lor she was an invalid for two years), all the christian graces seemed to have grown io periecuon. eucu laun ana love, such gentleness and meekness, such patience and resignation, have rarely been witnessed. Her death wai a sublime testimony in favor of the power of faith in Chils to comfort and sustain the soul in this last fearful struggle. So strong did her flth lay hold on Him and the glories of the invisible world, that she was iifted above care and concern for things pres- ent, and earnestly desired to "depart, and to be with Christ." She was frequently heard to say, "I desire lo go just now," and to pray. ijOru jems receive inyspirn. Aiewnours belore her death, after her pastor and several friends had prayed with her, she requested him and her husband and children, and all her frleudf, to meet her In heaven. Her last words, addressed to her sister, were: "I am so thirsty; give me, sister, a little water; onlv a few drops, for very soon I shall drink goblets of waler Irom tbe river of il'e. On, how beau- tiful the shore ol that river appears! What beautiful pebbles! What a precious time I shall have, ga'henng those pebbles with Ells and Laura."

The next morningan account of the interview appeared ina New York paper, giving an incorrectand unfair version of it, and he

The deceased was born In Caskaskia, Illi-

nois. At tbe ago of seven years ber parentsettled In Memphis, where the whole of herlife was passed, with tbe exception or a rewyears spent In her native State dnrlng thewar. On the 8th of June, 1854, she was unitedIn marriage to Mr. Charles P. Wiley. This

roved a very happy union; for she gave toEer husband the unselfish devotion of a lov-ing and faithful heart, which, being appre-ciated and reciprocated by him, their livesblended harmoniously, and peace and happi-ness reiffntri In the nniet hnnsehold.

In tho spring of 1868 she united with theFirst Cumberland Presbyterian Church inthis city, In the communion of which shelived an acceptable and consistent memberIn tho hour of her deah. exemnllfvinEr everin her life and conduct the pure principle ofour noiy religion, as io tne precise utne wnensho gave her heart to God. we are not Informed; probably in early life; for from hereariy girinooa ner minu seemeu io nave a re-ligious bent. In her last Illness, which waslingering (lor she was an invalid for twoyears), all the christian graces seemed to havegrown io periecuon. eucu laun ana love,such gentleness and meekness, such patienceand resignation, have rarely been witnessed.Her death wai a sublime testimony in favorof the power of faith in Chils to comfort andsustain the soul in this last fearful struggle. Sostrong did her flth lay hold on Him and theglories of the invisible world, that she wasiifted above care and concern for things pres-ent, and earnestly desired to "depart, and tobe with Christ." She was frequently heard tosay, "I desire lo go just now," and to pray.

Aiewnoursbelore her death, after her pastor and severalfriends had prayed with her, she requestedhim and her husband and children, and allher frleudf, to meet her In heaven. Her lastwords, addressed to her sister, were: "I am sothirsty; give me, sister, a little water; onlv afew drops, for very soon I shall drink gobletsof waler Irom tbe river of il'e. On, how beau-tiful the shore ol that river appears! Whatbeautiful pebbles! What a precious time Ishall have, ga'henng those pebbles with Ellsand Laura."
