Tlie name of the chief is John Scott, and there are four leading or rather sulxirdi-nate chiefs, viz: Billy Poncho, Washington Silestine, Charley Thompson and Joshua Poncho. They luive acquired but little of the habits, customs, of civilization, dinging with tenacity to the savage custom of their race. Some few do not use whiskey. They are generally honest, truthful and industrious: they are peaceful and very grave in demeanor, yet at the same time very susceptible to mirth when they perceive thing ludicrous.

A portion wear the same clothing ns their white noighlKrs; other the garb of their forefather. They arc fond vt ornament; pre-jiare themselves beautiful work in lieads und colors. The men wear long black hair, and where they have not adopted the dress of the whiten wear bright colored shirts and buckskin leggins.
