_Long Hair_, If you would make me believe that you are disposed to behave well, treat those good people (the Pawnee Loups) that reside with you kindly. Your arm is stronger than theirs; do not raise it against them, unless they insult you. I hope the day is not far distant, when I shall be able to smile on your people, as I now smile on them. _Pawnees_, When you find yourselves unable to punish those dogs among you, think that you hear the sound of those bugles from the hills near your village. * * * * * (Presents were now made to the Pawnee Loups; but to the others only a little tobacco was given, and no chiefs were recognized.)
