Indsan Treaty at Cticdso.-fTe lately announced the conclusion of a treaty, by which the various tribes of Indians assem- bled at Chicago, relinquished to the United States their title to an immense quantity of lands in Illinois, Indiana and Michigan We are indebted to the last Springfield Journal, for some additional papers.
