perceive from the western papers that fhe Secretary ef War has organized new commission to hold council. with the h. dians West of Arkansas, for the purpose of effecting treaty of amity between the sew eral tribes iahabiting that frontier. The commissioners are Gov. Stokes, Gen. AR BUCKLE and Major F. ". Armstrong. You perhaps vii enquire, why Mr. Els worth and the Rev. Mf. Schemmerhorn were not retained for this service? The an- swer is recorded in the War Department. Their pecuniary operations and their un- warrantable speculation in the publie lands, as charged by Gen. Arbuckle, had pro dueed 50 deep a sensation against them, m the neighborhood of Fort Gibson, that the President has been constrained to listen 10 the general expression in that quarter, and to supply their places by gentlemen, who it is said, will command the entire conf- dence of the Indians and the border set flers.
