After; a full consideration of the subject the following agreement was made, intelligently and voluntarily: "The Ottawa tribe of Indians, in Council assembled at the school house of its nation on Wednesday, the 5th of December, ,1860, makes the following Statements and agreements jill They are very desirous for the education of their children.

Your correspondent repeatedly satya they were robbed," Let us see if. they were. In 1862, when the treaty' was made, the Ottawas would hive taken $1 per acre for their reserve About the same time lands aa. good were bought at Government sale for 50 cents per acre in the same and adjoining counties. Hence," when the 20,000 acres were set apart they were not at the outside worth more than $25,000 The trustees agreed to erect school buildings, feed, clothe and educate the children of the nation (about forty in number! between the ages of six and LV Could the proceeds of these 20,000 acres it sold at mat time isoz do this? -We unhesitatingly answer, No.

The trustees depended upon en hancing the trust committed to them in order to carry out their obligations Again, after tho 20,000 acres were set apart for educational purposes tnere was still remaining of the reservation some 54.000 acres. From this remain der each head of a lamiiy received lou acres, and each child in the tribe 80 acres, rThe balance, about 30,000 acres, was appraised by the Government and sold to actual settlers, except some 7,000 aorea of the refuse, which were sold to th trustees of the University at the appraised price.

The donation of 20,000 acres doubled the' value of tho remaining 54,000 acres. It: did more, than this for 'when the tribe sold their head-right or five years after the treaty, they received from $5 to $40 per acre for them. all the increase in' ther value of their Ianda came about directly or indirectly through the es tablishment of the Ottawa University.

C. July 14 The trustees of Ottawa Kansas, in obedience to an order tf fawtiwy De lano, have sent in a report of the affairs of that institution. The Indians from whom the lands of the college were obtained make charges of high-handed swindling. The Secretary Bays the re port by no means covers the ground, and intimates that the present trustees know little of the early history of the institution. The official records now in the department show clearly the case of fraud the early transactions with the Indians, and the department will take measures for an honest settlement with the Indians.

Carre's speeches to the Irishmen in Prince street nan on Monday night were ot sr an lnnammatory character, and the grand jury of the Court of Oyer and tend to found an indictment on them It is also said that Carre used his influ ence with the Mayor to have the Orange parade stopped, and that to effect this a a he circulated the report that thousands of Hibernians had armed themselves and would prevent the parade at any cost.

A large number of people continue to congregate around the entrance of x. as to the number of additional dead and the condition of the wounded victims of the riot There remain but six dead at Bellvue Hospital. The bodies of others have been taken away bv friends for interment.

Crowds are inquiring as to the condition ot the wounded, who are very numerous both at Mount Sinai and Center Street Hospitals. The Irish women had quite as much to do with urging on the rioters as any of the men. They were swearing and howling in the streets and many ot them were armed, it is now stated that it was' one of those viragoes who shot Henry C. Page. An eye witness says tnat tne nrst snot at the corner of Twenty-fifth street was fired by an Irishman Btanding bv his wife.

Thn bullet struck one of the soldiers. A German woman, watching the an- proach of the procession, waved her handkerchief as the Seventh was pass ing, wneu an irishman walked up to her and blew her brains out with a pistol.

Official accounts state that a large number of the fillibust ers are either killed or wounded, and that some of the Spanish troops are also killed or wounded.

Ku-Klux. Committee. Washington, July 13. The Ku Kluz investigating committee today examined Judge A. 4.

Wright, from Rome, Georgia, ez-member of both the united btates and Confederate Congresses. He believed in the existence of the Ku- Klux, and said it was origi nated for police purposes, to suppress disturbances likely to grow out of the disorderly conduct of the negroes. The latter had behaved much better than was expected, and the Ku-Klux had sometimes gone beyond the purpose of their organization, which was not political, although being composed entirely of conservatives it might occasionally have that effect. Anti-Sabbath. Cincinnati, July 13.

The German convention have formed a co-operative society called the German American Mutual Protection Society," the objeot of which is to protect themselves by the ballot-box and other peaceable means in observance of the Sabbath acoording to their peculiar ideas. They held the first meeting to-night, which was ad dressed by Emile Itothe, who took the position that that which was right on a week day was right on the Sabbath. The intention seems to be to push the organization of such societies into other cities. Kelso's Order. New York, July 14.

The Tribune publishes this morning an account of the interview of its reporter with Mayor Mall yesterday, in which the latter, as sumes the responsibility of Kelso's order forbidding the parade. It argues that the event has proved its wis dom. He refused to state whether the Governor had any previous knowledge of it, and looks upon the Governor's proclamation as similar to a reversal of the judgment of an inferior court by an appeal to a higher one. The. Mayor affirms that the poliee commissioners, both Democratic and Republican, were united in favor of Kelso order.

an "Indian Ring" was formed in 1869, the apparent purpose of which has been and still is to break up the trust and divide the proceeds. Now, anything whieh would tend to bring the Indian children to the school or establish a branch school on its present reservation would defeat this ring. Hence the members of the ring use their utmost influence with a few of the leading men of the tribe to induce them to keep the children from going to" school, and refuse to accept a school among them. At the time this ring was formed the four Indian trustees wore in hearty sympathy with the other members of the board and with the University. So also the whole nation in a council held the fall of 186S expressed itself as strongly in sympathy with the It is due to some of the Indians say tnat two or trustees and a number of the more intelligent men of the nation are still on the side of the University and strongly opposed to the ring, lour correspondent winds up his letter by saying that the Indians have, been so robbed that they are now suffering, calling on the Government for This is not so.

'In the first place, many of the Ottawas' are well off, and all might have been had they taken care of the money received for their lands in Franklin county. A late chief told me a few days ago that none of their people had asked help. I was on their present reservation a few days ago, and know from actual observation that they are all living comfortably. They have fifteen thousand acres of choice land, is more than they need or -can cultivate. could say much more about the origin and history of this University, in which, doubtless, many of your readers -would be inter ested, But we will leave it for the future, and in conclusion say that it is an easy thing to write and publish over anonymous or fictitious names.

All I ask in behalf of the University, its board of trustees and the Baptist de nomination, is that any article adverse to the above parties that is presented for publication in your paper which 1 have always believed to be impartial be published over the signature ot its author, as I publish this statement over mine. Robert Atkinson, Treasurer of Ottawa University. Ottawa, June 29, 1871. A FEW WORDS FROM AN INDIAN ON THE SAME SUBJECT. To the Editor.

of the New York Times: I have read the artiole published in your paper headed A Speck of Ancient History about tne-uttawa universny. As a member of the Ottawa tribe and a trustee of the University I wish to say many of the statements and imputations in the article are false. 1,, Rev. Jotham Meeker was the only missionary sent among our people by the Baptist denomination, lie never conoeived the plan nor had anything to do with the founding of Ottawa Uni versity, nor was the thing thought of until years after his death. He labored as a very devoted christian missionary only for the good of our people, and this we all feel to have been of great import ance to us all.

2. The Baptist denomination did not seek our co-operation our edueationa matters, but we sought their aid in the matter. We entered into an agree ment (see agreement in above letter) with the trustees of the Roger Williams University. Our, treaty of 1862 was made upon this agreement. We thought then, and do still think, that it was the best thing our people could do to enter into said relation with the above-named denomination.

The statement is entirely false that the Ottawa University has been built mainly on the ruins of this tribe, a few white men, by the way, capturing what of their pro perty the University left." All our lands were appraised by men appointed by the Government of the United States and sold to actual settlers save about seven thousand acres, whioh we sold to the trustees of the Ottawa University at the appraised price set by Government, and it has been paid for. The trouble is not with the University, its board ot trustees, nor with the Bap- tifit denomination, but with a former agent of the United States, who at one time professed to be a christian and a Baptist minister. He, with a few hungry lawyers, had been trying to create dissatisfaction among our people, and have advised the -Ottawa people not to send their children to Bchool hence, if the advantages of the University have not as yet been felt among our children it has not been the fault of the present board of trustees. I am thankful to be able to inform you that many of our children, are being. brought- to school, our people seeing it to be for the best interest of their children: I speak from personal knowledge when I say the trustees honestly desire to carry out the treaty stipulations and agreements entered into between the United States and the board of trustees in behalf of the Ottawa children of Blanchard's Fork and Ranche de Boeuf.

If our people will only be let alone to enjoy the advantages of the school as provided for their education we the trustees (and not the Baptist denomination) are ready to-'grant-the children all things provided lor them in the treaty, and in this case- the ttrasteea will not be the gainers in this thing, nor the Baptist as is slanderously insinuated in the article above referred to. The 20,000 aeres of land set apart in the treaty was not worth mote than $25,000, taking out $5,250 for laying the foundation of the house. The re-maing amount could, never have maintained forty or fifty children in their education, clothing, feeding and medical smr.inbfjs adams. Kansas Pacific Railway GENERAL FREIGHT OFFICE.
