The friends of persons killing him all put an arrow into him, They never burn powder when they ean use arrows. The principal men are armed with fire arms, and the others with bows and arrows. The [ndians do not fight often unless they are in very superior numbers. They do not fight without an advantaye. Whenever they find their enemy prepared they give up. The Indians are now carrying on the war with all the uew improvements. They hare field glasses. We found a glass at Fort Wallace. They come up like a regiment of THE RELATIONS BETWEEN FRANCE AND ITALY. The rumour which has had pretty extensive circulation during the last few days, thut a coolness had sprung up between France and Italy on account of the formation of what is known as the Antibes Legion, a corps raised ia France tor the service of the Papacy, has at length evoked a plain and unequivocai denial on the part of the Italiaa Goverament through the Oficial Gazette of Florence. Negociasious, it is admitted, are pending on the subject, but there is no truth whatever in the statement that threatening notes had passed between the two Powers. La France, alluding to the |same subject, remarks that the relations be- tween France and Italy have never ceased to be of the most cordial character. The chief stands with a mirror and throws re- tlections as signals, which the men obey. They bave sigoal meu all around. On one occasion I was with Captain Smith, » guide and inter- preter. There was an Indian brilliantly arrayed making signals. Captain Smith puiled out a smal! mirror from his bosom and flashed it on the Indian, who became frightened and ran away. Of hostile warriors the General estimates that the Cheyennes number about four hun- dved, the Arapahoes four hundred, the Kiowas five hundred. There are but few Apaches of the Plains, probably four or five hundred. Fifteen hundred or two thousand will cover all engaged between the Arkansas and the Platte, that is, leaving out the Camauches, who numbei about three thousand. a THE ELECTIONS IN ONTARIO AND QUEBEC, The Diritto says it is informed oa good authority that an arrangement has been con- cluded between the [talian government and the Papal governmeut, in virtue of which, should any violation of Pontifical territory be com- mitted by bands of insurgents, Italy would be at liberty to occupy certain points of that territory not includiug Rome. “ [t is this, adds the Diritto, * which explains the hostile attitude | of France.” In the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec the government are carrying everything before them All the members of the Adininistration have been | returned, a number of them by acclamation, while in South Ontario Geerge Brown, the ally of Howe, and leader of the opposition, was de- feated by a ministerialist, deapite the tremendous efforts which were made to secure his election.— The tide of victory which set in at the outset may be said to have been uninterrupted, the only exception being the defeat of the Hon.

A “great forest abounding jin elephants,” and «a “country producing frankincense and myrth,’’ are notable features in the chart, as are also a point where a certain river is lost in the saud, and another designated as the probuble source of the blue Nile. Beyond these distriets—that is to say, on the south-western frontier of King Theo- dare’s dominions—we pass on through @ “country inhabited by pagan negroes” to the Mountains of the Moon, a spur of which mysterious range seems actually to enter the Abyssinian kingdom. The ‘ preparations” now announced from Woolwich are excellent ly adapted to the occasion, We are making ready for a battle, not against man, but against nature. The object is to send out not merely artillery, but oes artillers—guus which can be carried oa mule’s backs, or possibly, on meu’s shoulders, over hills and through passes where no carriage could move. The contrast between the implements and the service in this case is most extraordinary. We are actually building miniture cannon and miniture carriages of polished steel for work iu an African desert. ‘These weapons, hard!y bigger than children’s toys, and weighing no more than the lusgaye allowed to a first-class passeager on @ railway, will nevertheless throw a projectile of Tib, being thus more effective than the cumberous fieldpieces of sixty years since.

The troops }will carry their own arms, but in some way or other there must be carried for them food and drink, as it appears to be quite uncertain whether water can be had on the march or not. The great obstacle in the matter is its mystery. We shall be marching into a region without any means of conjecturing what we may find. [t is understood that there are mountains in the way; indeed the maps tell jus that; and we are making preparations for 'warfare in passes and defiles. But, beyond that, the campaign will be equivaleat to an exploring expedition conducted on an irresis- tible scale. THE INSURRECTION IN SPAIN. Accordiig to official despatches published at Madrid it is believed that the rebel band of Prierot has been dissolved, and that of Priorati has surrendered to the authorities. The insurgents have disappeared from the district of Valeacia. According to vilicial de- spatches 1,000 insurgents in Catalonia have taken advautaye of the amnesty and surrender- ed to the authorities. Contreras, with 100 men, forming the remnant of his band, has passed into Arragon. The bands in Arragon, which a short time since numbered 1,200 men, do not now exceed 400, and the rest of the in- surgeuts under Pierrad aud Contretas are moving towards Benasque and Confrane on the frontier pursued by the troops. ‘The rest of Spain is quiet. Telegrams from Madrid of Wednesday con- tinue to represent the successful advance of the Government troops and the dispersion of the in- sargents. Nearly the whole of the Arragouese band is said to have fled across the French frontier, where they were at ouce disarmed by a —— —— + _ THE INSURRECTION IN “CRETE. The following letter has been addressed by the insurrection goverament of Crete to the consuls of England, France, Russia, Austria, Prussia, Italy, Greece, Sweden, and the United States of America:—Askyfo de Spbakia, August 9.—Messieurs ‘es Consuls— The Generalissimo of Turkey, Omer Pacha, having faiied in his !ast expedition in spite of his immense military preparations, his numerous army, the strict blockade which he instituted both by sea and land, and his promise to the insurgents, abandoned himself without restraint to the dictates of # ferocious heart. He burned all the villages of Sphakia, with the exception of Comitato and Prosjals, which were partly destroyed. He cut down the trees and set fire to the bee-hives, searched all the caves in which the inhabitants lad hidden their small properties, opened the tombs, and scattered ihe remains of the persons who had been lony interred, while he cut off the heads and limbs of corpses recently buried. He surrounded caves where women, children, and old men, and sick had taken refuge, and, having induced them to come forth by promises and protestations, caused them to be subjected to the most cruel tortures, and this at the momeut he had assured M. Boutacoff, the Russian consul, that he had treated them with lenity. Omer Pacha also put to death the nun Trajina, blind from her birth, Cali, Papinicola, S. Vergaki, N. Parlaki, and Jeau de Trivara, whose bodies he insulted. In the village of Colocassia he had an old man named Giam- oulakey and a priest slaughtered. During his return to Heraelion. on the 28th and 30th of last month, Reschid Pacha committed even greater atrocities ayainst the defenceless, to revenge himself for his defeat. This leader ravaged the property of the Christians and burnt the convent of Prevels. At Metampes he masraacred an old man named Gianacachi Christephoraki, and a girl, whose bodies he cast into the flumes, as well as the monk Gedeon, whose head he impaled upon the cross surmounting the church. Other persons, whose names we have not been able to learn, also fell victims to his fury. The Cretan Go- vernment, while deploring these brutal and ferocious acts, which enlightenment and civilization condemn, protests in the name of humanity to your Governments, and implores their aid, that the weak and the defenceless may be saved. We embrace at ibe same time this opportunity of denying the false statements, spread by Omer Pacha, concerning the pre- tended submission of Candia. Far from such being the case, not a child has given in its sub- mission, not a weapon has beeu delivered up, not a signature has ratitied any such proposal ; and let it be well noted that in Sphakia alone he has been carrying on war agaiast us for an entire month. Omer Pacha has attenipted to delude his own government, and to mislead Kuropean opinion, but the Christians of Can- dia oppese to his meudacious words the rattle ot their arms and the report of their askets, which have not ceased and will not cease to re- sound from one extremity of the Island to the ether, until our deliverance, aud our univn with independent Greece. We bey you to lay this present Communication before your gov- ernment. (The signatures follow.) Marseitces, Tuvrspay.—The steamer from Athens brings accounts from Candia, stating that the Turks attacked the iusurgents at Omalos, fighting continued for three days. Upon the fourth day the Turks entered Omaivs. The insurgents set the houses on fire and closed the wells, and the Turks were then obliged to leave the town. The insurgents beiny reinforced, pursued and compelled the Turks to descend into the level country. Several were killed on the authorities. Others, again, are hiding in been surpressed in Bejar. On the other hand, the insurrection has extended to the province of Cueuca, acd the Paris Temps puts the entire insurgent forces at 18,000 men. Zuniga was beaten in a hard and fair fight, but his overwhelming numerical superierity would have insured for him the victury had uot his troops gone over in masses to the enemy. The bases for the operations of the insurrec- jtion in Arragon have been skilfully selected. | The iusurgeuts under Contreras bold the valleys which run direct from the French frontier.

He must have been dving strange things, indeed, when he could provoke the dignified Archbishop of Halifax into the utterance of the sentiments contained in the letter below, If Mr. Anglin ipmroperty used a relizious question to promote his electioneering projects, he certainly deserved to be censured; but 1 is nevertheless a great pity that any prelate should take an active part in a political contest, more particularly is it to be deplored that ssmething likeasledge hammer should exercise the arm that held a crozier to knock down an erring son of the Church. Mr. Anglin’s paper pretends to believe that the Archbishop’s letter is a spurious document ; but if it were such, the Archbishop would have long since announced the fact under his own hand—postal communication and electric tele- graphs affording the most speedy facilities for the correction of so grave an iinposture. The Hon. Peter Mitchell, Miuister of Marine forthe New Dominion, and from whom, evidently, the letter found its way to the press, is not the man who would allow bis name to be coupled with a gross torgery. We must, therefore, accept the letter as genuine. It is as follows :— Halifax, N. S., August 19, 1867. How. P. Miromece. My Dear Sir,--I have been so completely taken up with serious business matters that your kind letter is still unanswered. Yester- day our mutual friend Mr. *** gave me the benefit of bis professional services, about twen- ty-two miles from Halifax, in coauection with a grand undertaking inthe shape of diking in a harbor, and [ had uvs till now w single spare moment on hand.

He has done more to blacken the Catholic Religion in the persons of its ministers, and to make Catholicity and Catholics—and especially the Irish—hated in New Brunswick, than all the Orangemen in the Land. I[f the Catholic body are now politically low and degraded. and counting tor nothing as they really do in New Brunswick, I blame Anglin and his rabid paper for the sad resuit. It is melancholy to see so good a peuple, so utterly prustrated by a policy, which may be very good for the sale of Mr. Anglin’s paper, but which must end as every sensible man sees in public disaster.

It has at length been resolved io dispatch a large ariay force to punish the Monarch of Abyssinia, and the utmgst expedition is being used to organize and make it ready for the field. Notices have been issued by the Admiralty authorities, requesting te:ude:s for steam transports to be sent in. Should the Admiralty obtain suitable vessels, we believe that they could, under ordinary circumstances, reach Bombay in about 50 days, and their fitting-up need not take up much more time. About 18,000 tons of steam-shipping will be required for the conveyance of 10,000 troops from Bombay to the Abyssinian coasts, for the war and commissariat material for such a peculiar service will of course be unusually bulky. There are but few steam- ships in the Indian seas which can be taken up for the service, and the bulk of the tounage will consequently have to be despatched from Great Britain, yy f The expeitiog wil be organized in India, under the comnfand of Sir Robert Napier, Commander-in-Chiefat Bombay, who is to be intrusted with the political as well as military authority. Sir Charles Stavely has been selected as second in command. A quantity of steam transport has been taken up, and will start for Bombay immediately, so as to be there in the course of November; but the Bombay Government have also provided quantity of transport for themselves. Officers have also been despatched to various places to purchase camelsand mules. Massow sh will prob- ably be selected as the base of operations, but this point is notfinally settled. Three steamers have been provided, which are being fitted up as hospital ships, and will he furnished with Appropriate stores. Medical officers will be appointed to them. The whole of the arrange- ments are under the direction of the Inudia- office, in order to secure unity of action: but the expense will be borne by Imperial funds. On Wednesday there was a good deal of stir in the steam-shipping trade in Liverp-ol, in consequence of the urgent demand made by Government upon the steamship owners of that port. There were no less than fifteen steamers placed under special surver, and five of these were at once accepted. The names of the vessels chartered and under survey for the carrying of troops to Abyssinia are as follows: City of Dublin, Bosshorus, City of Manchester, France, The Queen, England, Hellvetia, Hector, Carolina, Pacific, Lybia, Peruvian, Golden Fleece, Mauritius, and Californian. These vessels will, after Madrid of their Portuguese Majesties. A rumour has been current ia Paris that Saragossa had fallen into the power of the in- surgents. The Liberte wveu vives the follow- ing details :—*“ When the debris of the column crushed by Pierrad re-entered the city they found it in riot. Surrounded by assemblages of people,saluted with cries of ¢ Vivala libertad !’ the troops remained indecisive. The chiefs ordered them to fire on the crowd, and ibat order wus the signal of their defection. The soldiers disbanded, joined the people, and the insurrection was proclaimed at Saragossa.” The Aveair National saysit has received the folluwing telegraphic despatch :—* London, August 27.—The cabinet has received infor- mation representng that the Spanish insurrec- tion is spreading widely, and directly threat- ening the dyuasty.’’ The Union draws a very gloomy picture of the state of Spain, which it considers as hurry- ing with frightful rapidity, not towards mere decadence, but to its downfall. Brute foree, it declares, has replaced the authority of the law; the inoral sense seems dead—corruption has passed every limit, aud now displays itself with such unblushing boldness as to excite astunishment. ‘lhe writer then goes on to re- mark:—** The Government is without root, and the high command without prestige; the sovereignty is sou,yht for in vain, as all that is seen is the chief power disputed by the ambiti- ous, and belonging to the strongest. And it is because the power depends upon the success of an adventure that insurrections suceeed each other so rapidly. The one just broken out in Catalonia and Arragoa had General Prim for chief; he was sought in every place where he was not—the journalists even recounted what he was doing at Brussels. But General Prim was at the post of the conspiracy; he breathed e ergy into the hearts of his friends ; he excited, he directed, in the midst of his followers. Tne rising which was his work has not succeeded ; however, it has been graver than was said. Prim was working for the profit of a French prince (Montpensier) who, in spite of his per- sonal qualities, is uot pypular on the other side of the Pyrenees; all the insurgents did not know the general’s ultimate intentions, but enough was comprehended to render co-opera- tion limited and for hesitations to paralyse courageous efforts. Narvaez has on his road a more dangerous and powerful man than Prim, and that is O'Donnell. The best informed political observers in Spain say this latter holds the Crown of Isabella in his hand. If, as we are assured, he enters on # campaign in Nov- ember, we shall see something worth speak- ing of.’ . able to ‘‘come to time ’’ with his qualification. Of Mr. Tilley’s election for the city of St. John, which was to have taken place on Saturday, there is not the shadow of a doubt. In Nova Scotia, the Nominations took place ou Wednesday, and were conducted ia a very orderly mauner. Both the Coafeds. and anti- Confeds. are full of enthusiasm, and each cer- tain of winning the day. latest dutes—(vide Halifax Reporter, Sept. 12,)—that James McKeagney, Esqr., for Cape Breton, Stewart Campbell, Esqr., for Guysborough, aud Thomas Coffia, Esqr., for Shelburne, —all avowed Unionists — have been returned to the House of Commons by acclamation. This cannot be very encouraging to the anti-Confederates, who declared that they should have every seat in the Province for themselves. Of Dr. Tupper's election, againat whom the greatest eifurt is being made, there is not the shadow of a doubt. Tue Islander and Patriot have taken us to task for expressing some opinions as to the possible necessity there may be for coercing proprietors inte a sale of their lands to the Government, should the latter have means to buy, aud make a reasonable offer. Our contem. poraries pretend to be shocked at our even- thinking ot such a thing as coercion under any circumstances; but we are prepared to show that they themselves advocated a measure which proposed coercion in broader terms than we have used. As we shall have to consult important public documents, and give extracts from them, we must defer the vindication of our position until our next No., when we hope to convince the Patriot and the Islander that they have raised a most “injudicious '’ cry against us.
