Arrived .at Fort Laramie on the l-Tth, found a few lodges ot trieudly Si oux, encamped near Ward and (Lrrbis. W o were informed that, sixty* lodges of Sioux weic* en camped at Ash Hoil. iw, waiting tlie arrival of j the troops, but did not see them; we saw only one at that point, who seemed to be watching the road, A I.O XK TKAVKI.I.Kt!. had with us a man named Ihompson, from S;in Francisco, who said his homo was iti l'hiladelpliia, from which he had been absent five years, and where he had a family. This man was alone when we overtook him, bare of cloth ing, without money, or anything to eat. I first saw him at Salt bake; just arrived from Califor n,a ; left the valley sometime before, and up to the tone we overtook him had traveled alone.— Had eaten but a few times, going as much as three days at a-timo without anything,.. This! man we took in as one of our party ; he encamp ed with us at Ash Hollow, and, us uSual, when wewere about breaking up camp lie started in j ®l}r. American Union. I advnive of us. After we life! .tinted and travel led it aliort distanee, s-eeing the sinelo Indian on. ! wateli, it caused inquiry for 1 lioinson.

It is a settled fact, that the American, in the general acceptation of the word, is not favorable to the foreigner, (collectively speaking,) though I worthy foreigners may have and do enjoy tne ! respect of a goodly number of personal friends. In proof of this assertion, see how friendfy a Hemocratic candidate is to a foreigner before s n t electionfaml how indifferent after it is over.

And yet those uiinistcis were in many instances, foreign ers by biitli.

A Pnc sst ax. Tammany Society. Gov. Cobb, having been twitted with being a member of tlie Tammany Society, generally un . derstook to lio a secret political organization, has avi itteu a letter to (Jot. Jones,of Covington, 1 in. which In- says that “Tammany Society Is A • social and not a political organization.” Can Mr. Cobh mention a man outside of the I>tninrrulir jmrty who was ever a member of tliat society l We thi ik it will puzzle him to do so. If, then democracy is a necessary quali lication for membership, though its chief objects may l„- social, wo cannot readily perceive how Gov. Cobh can ignore its political character, or deny that it is substantially, and to all inteuta I and purposes, a jtolitieal society. 1 Mr. Cobb also says that as far as he fen ossa or ■ believes, the society “has never mingled in the’ political or party strife* of the country.” Mr. | Cobh is a much older man than ourselves, yet j we have a very distinct recollection that in the ’ reign of Jackson and Van Rurun. Tatnmanv So cietv was considered the great hot-bed and foun tain-head of both the policy and the nomination* <>f the democratic jiarty. We have before its a memorable speech of Got. < ‘obb, himself, before this same ‘iammany Soci ety, a few years ago, in which he was introduc ed by t ‘ol. Delavan, the Grand Sachem, a* “our beloved brotiier, whose services in the cause of Democracy were known all over the land.” And in reply to acoinplimen'ary toast, then and there given, Mr. Cobb promised to confine himself to * a few reflections on the jiasl history and proba ble future of the Democratic party in the south ern States,” which, said Mr. Cobb, is “all you want to know in relation to the South !” j W natever Tammany may really be in ordi nary times, it is very certain its “social” was fatty merged in its “political” character on the occasion when Mr. Cobb took his seat with the t faithful.— Wilkes Republican.
