The Sioux Commission finished its labors on the 20th instant, with a formal report to Secretary Chandler. By the terms of the agreement the Sioux surrendered all clafm to any country lying outside the boundaries of their permanent reserve as defined Vjr the treaty of 1868, and to so wiRCh of said reserve as lies west of the one hundred and third meridian of longi tude, and as is included between the aorth and south forks of the Cheyenno river, east of said meridian. The Gov- ernme n t there by secures full posse ssi<m of a tract of country which includes the Blacfc Hills is defined by natur al boundaries. The Indiaiis grant a right of way over their reservation for three roads from Missouri river to the ceded territory, the routes to be designated by the President.

The following tribute to the noble preservative art we find in a contem porary, fcnd we commend its strong contrasts to the Intelligent reader: "He is only a printer." Such is the sneering remark of aristocracy--the codfish aristocracy. What was the Earl of Stanhope? Only a printer. What is Prince Frederick William, married to the Princess Royal of Eng land? He, too, was only a printer. What were G; P. Morris, N.P. Willis, J. Gales, C. Richardson, J. Harper, Horace Greeley, Schuyler Colfax, Bayard Taylor, Charles Dickens, Theirs, Jerrold, George D. Prentice, and Senators Dix, Cameron and Nile*? They, too, were printers. What was Benjamin Franklin? He, too, was a printer. Every one can not be a print er, brains are neccessary. r 'The foreign "situation" is not so threatening as it was weeks ago. A Vienna correspondent of tfife London Times says that the news from Con stantinople is more pacific and hopeful than it has been for some time. From the Marquis of Salisbury's conversation it may be inferred that England, al though still averse to occupation, ad mits that it may become unavoidable but maintains that Tnrkey ought to be allowed some time in which to carry out reform occupation to be resorted to only in case of her failure. The Itussian telegrapic agency at Constan tinople says a long interview between Salisbury. British representative, and Ignatieff, the Russian minister, showed the understanding between them to be complete on all points. . ."iff ~ am You are Interested! in This NEW PRICE LIST LAUER & BECKER, but first care fully READ the new FALL, and WINTER price LIST.
