Oct. 21. WOT. Captain John Nelson. Tionotv Superintendent of Police-Blr:-I am Induced in .write yoo, owing to the peculiar circumstances Jht have within the last lew weeks surrounded me. V-.Yn will be aware ere this reaches you that I have iri sentenced to Slate's Prison on two charges, lor the term ot ten yearn. I have no complaint to make luiinrU any one, nor would 1 ana for nymiiatliy. only lhiTi I believe I am almost friendless, aud slowly but iirelv dying of disease that must prove fatal. J ft has been your duty to detect and prosecute erlmlnala like myself, yet the treatment I have ever received Irom your bands, and those connected with Jou must ever command my respect. As I have said, am seuienced to the Penitentiary for ten years. As you know, my We at the lunuvai cannot be more than ne year. Hlnce my last conhnwnent 1 have sulTered uucti .and though t much ol the past., and the remorse of aKuil'y conscience tells me there Is more In the future than I, In my rcklensnpHS, huve thought ot, and what liille ol life is letl Blioulu he devoted to a better pur- f ose, to alone for the past. I do not tuluka reloriaa lon iniiiosHlhle. as even greater criminals than my self have reformed. Una iblng is certain, I shall never offend the law again as I have done, if turned loose to morrow. What 1 would wIhIi to say is this: I go to the Stale's Prlno'i with a firm determination to be a better man, I have not long to live, but when my last lew days should draw nigh, 1 do not wish to be buried as a 'elon, lor tiie sake of relatives whom X fcave already tilled with norrow. "I would ask your assistance yourfsympathy so far s this: if at such a time an npnlicatlon should be made for you to assist In saving me iroui a lulon's grave, that you will look upon It favorably. "Believe me ever respect! ully your-t.t ailClIAKL KKNNKDY." A correspondent of the St. Louis Democrat ays: "General Harney, forty-two years ago, at the treaty on the Little Missouri, with High Ulaek Wolf, adopted the boy of the latter as kis ion. That boy at the preliminary inter Tiew held to-day was Black Kettle, the head niei ol tne Lneyennea. tie baa a fine head And a very sagacious look. The General Black Kettle pays the General profound defer ence, which will be turned to account in the approaching council. CARPETINGS. 519 CIIES1VUT STREET. 519 FINE CARPETINGS AT RKDUCED BRIOES.
