PAYMENTS ON OSAOK INDIAN LANDS. 
The Secretary of the interior has extended 
the time for the payment from the settlors on 
the Osage Indian lands for sixty days, to enable 
them to make use of the proceeds of their crops 
for that purpose. The President lias ordered 
the removal Of the land office at Humboldt to 
Independence, to take place on the 20th of Sep¬

the Osage settlers, the present location of tbe 
Land Office being at an Inconvenient distance

I INDIAN AFFAIRS ARE REGARDED. 
WA; ,. ngton, Aug 20. During a conversation 
at the War Department, to-day, n prominent 
General, who lias given much attention lo the 
Indian question, stated that it seems impossible 
for the Indiana and the white settlers to gel 
along together In peace; that there would be no 
difficulty in managing the Indians!! it were not 
for the whites, and that the whiles would get 
along very well it it were not for the Indians. 
It seems, however, that the War Department 
lias been convinced that il is necessary, in the 
language ol' the General, lo thrash soundly the 
Sioux Indians of the Northwest. The Depart¬ 
ment considers that the Sioll-V have no excuse 
for their conduct during the past few months; 
that they not only raid the valleys am1$eltle- 
munta ol Hie w hites, killing the inhabitants and 
running off their stock, but. murdering the 
friendly Indians also. Owing to the large reduc¬ 
tion of the army ordered by the hist.Congress, 
and tlio consequent inadequacy ol the force in 
the West, t lie t roops will be obliged to act on 
the defensive until next spring, when the De¬ 
partment hopes to obtain additional forces. It is 
thought that the Secretary or War, in his next 
annual report, will urge upon Congress the pro-
