General Dombrowskl held review of tlic Sccourt retninent or National Guards to-day at, Nt-mlly. There is nothlnac remarkable since trio installation ol the Commune iu the fact of a review held anywhere, as we have had several of upon n. small scale already; and, fact, you way site one almost any duy, cither of battalion, or a regiment, or a company or some oilier imaginary military division conceived by ttio extraordinary and ISSCKUTAliLE ORGANIZATION OF TUE COMMUNE. This review, however, held under the very gnus ol the batteries at Courbevoie aud Beccn aud tne Irowiling fortress of Moal Valerleo. was intended to BOW tue people of Versailles, just over We way, that, so far from being discouraged and disorganized Dy trie loss of issy and Yomel.

the troops of the Commune were never in. a better condition nor more Inclined to tight than at present. Accordingly they were drawn up in line oa the Boulevard to tlie number of about live thousand to await the arrival of General DOUUROWSCI, AND DELESCLUZE, the present Minister of War. The regiment was composed or tlie 259th battalion, the laeth and tlie 12Sti l( "which was complimented by ike Commune Tor its handsome conduct the morning: of the sortie in the Hois de Boulogne. At the appointed time the carriage or Delescluze was seen coming oat at the Porte Ulneau, followed Dy liomorowritl and hhs staff.

They cttrac rattling np tne BIncau in a cloud of dust, to its junction witli t3ic Boulevard Eugene, and immediately ttio baud struck up the "Chant du. Depart," aud the by, commenced marching: far up the broad avenue of trees, green with the iresh verdure or upriug, tlio red flugri and colors nylng (jaily in the brlglit sunshine, mailing a beautiful aad brilliant, spectacle. As each company marched by the men tooK off tlieir kepis and snouted ic? la comment 1 1 1 la liqitr DomrjLD.iKi amid universal cheering. In tue meantime the gnus at Uie Porte les Tcrnes and the Porte Maillot nad OPENED I'IBE UPON THE IJATTEIIIES ai Conrbevoie and Brecon, whtca were not slow to answer, and soon the screaming of sheila overhead and the roar ol artillery were added to the music of tnc brass naud and tne cheering, mating a harsu, but not unpleasant accompanlmenL to the wild and surrmg rouble of the "Marseillaise." Tae enemy BOOH began to Una out, however, what was poinff on, and commenced throwinjr shells in our neighborhood, galded, probably, by the music, borne aDout on tae wind, was but a poor target, -which possibly the reason that nooody was hurt. It CIS AXD DESOtiATlON- They marched up tue Boulevard Eage'ne in the direction of the Island de la Grande Jettee, then, turned and filed, down the Boulevard.

luKerraan to tJQe Avenue du Rome, where they divided and marched off lo tneir separate posts. Beiescluze afterwards went to Dombrowstl's headquarters, in the line Pcrronet, aud In spile of all he had heard and read of it, was aston ished at the scene of rum and desolation that there awaited him---toe otd story of fallen roots, batierecl and crumbling walls, trees crashed and splintered, Kardeus up, but not with the peaceful implements or agriculture; destruction that is aui! going on Irom day to day, like au organised work; desolation that every moment, HKc some nor rid causer nn ihe lace or nature, is spreading its circle wider and wider. THE SrrCATIOX AT remains as it has been ior days. Domrowskl still liolUs toe positions conquered by Ulia some time ago, retaiuliie his advance lines ac tue Bouievard da Chateau, wlilcli UHL a aUort distance iroin tndge. The sicuation Is relatively ftboal the same; that is, tlie eon leading forces occupy opposite sides or tne same streets at a distance or about nrty to a liunarcd feet frooi each otuer, being separated only by tue Boulevard du Chateau, across wuicli street they are shouting contmujilly, AT TABLE.

Delesclnze sat down to the table 'with Dombrowsla and tiis staff, and partootc or a rough out euostan- ual meal--cold roast beef, not particularly tender, some excellent wine, tliat Dombrowsui saiu had been stolen frcm. the church, and the famous Dam. captured Irom tae ireudarmes in Xeullly. The latter viand was tasted and round to be excellent, in spue or its treasonable origin. Dombrowsfci told us laat owner, or pretended owner, ol the hams iu question had applied to Him for pay Tor them.

"But," said Uie General, ''these haoia were in possession or the gendarmes at ine time of their -capture and de.ended by them," -Yes, sir," replied tae applicant. "Very wen." said the tieneral, I have to say is, that as the geusdarmes undertooK. to defend them ior you, you must loot to them for your atus- And that was all the satisfaction tae pour jnerchant ever received. HOW TO SETTIJ3 CU.IMS- I heard a similar story of the proprietor ot a house JcnocKed to pieces on th corner ol the Eue Louis p-hiiippe and the Avenue du Rome, who applied to DoinurowsKi for a uoad 01 remuneration from tee house is within our lines," said the turning to one of Insofllcers; it ever been occupied by as Ior any purpose sir," replied the oolcer."

He is a mm, sharp, pale mau. a prominent Roman, nose, gray ieard, hollow cheeKs and eyes, Joolcs to be fully sixty years on, and probably not one those who knew him a year ago toought he would be alive to-day, so slight is his liold on life. Can the life of the Commune be measured by that of the men at Its head'; it would almost seem so.

Then the young and liery ROSSliL, under whose resolute hand tne Commune seems to iiave gained a new lease of life; his sudden deser- lion of his post in the hour of danger, and tue ap- jpearance of tills decrepit old man with one foot in the grave to take charge of affairs juat as the Com- Tinme and tue column of the Place Veiidome seem to be toppling together. HEATER TALK. "While at table a discussion arose between two of the ollicers concerning the possibility or maintaining military discipline aud Keeping an army togetaer without the application of the death penalty.

Ono of tuenj. wiio nas served in tne regular army teu maintained that it could be done. Another supported the contrary doctrine. The argument grew hot. ana almost degenerated msoa quarrel and a duel.

Tlie muUer wasarransert, however, without bloodshed, and B-elescluze soon after left, not having ppoken more man ten words during the whole course of tnc ineal.

From personal information have learned that the miiatuvaats of Paris would Have eagerly accepted a conciliation if oased oa the condition above meii- uoubu.

in all tae sittings of the Commune my brother diu ever invoke the besc sentiments of the human heart. Certainly he believed the necessity ol a revolution, out he desired to carry it on without denying respect to law and public opinion. he was appointed Deputy he saw that in the presence of a resistance of the Farisians against the monarchical plots of Thiers it was his duty to return to lus electors, to remain with them to the last and to await there the triumph of the right, whatever may be the means necessary to attain it. He has luuiLlea his duty. The work which he and others have unaertafcpn wtll be completed Dy the fmnre generation.

Bat his profound conviction did not etfaee the melancholy presentment which weighed upon his mind. Thus during his stay in the Ministry of War he, in private conversation, olcen let out chat he had ijrvea up aU hope ot conciliation, and that he xvas doubtful of success for tue present. In his proclamations he told the Guard that it ntijjht happen that they who combated would reap no advantages from the social revolutions, the fruits of wlilcu will, however, certainly be enjoyed by tuetr cnndren. And De was rignt, sir. On this man, who was so devoted, so sincere, so uiuch attached to the nirht--who had throughout nis life louuht fur ttie right--have the journals of this city cast a slur with regard to his tragic death, matiinK him alone responsible for the massacres of Paris, caused by the obstinacy, disloyalty and the royalist intrigues ot" Tillers, MacAlahon and the use.

A Greeting- of ths Faces to ths Dark Stins-- Tlie Story of Their Grievances and Their "Wrongs-- "WTiet They Expect from Their Father, President Grant. Tlie Tmli of i-lie Cooper Institute iiljilit crowdetl i very intelligent audience, who luui for the purpose or welcoming the Imium delegation on a visit to this city.

Tlie meeting Had none of tnc enthusiasm that was nianJfest when lied Cloud and his friends delivered their addresses in ihc same hall aTjoul. a year ago. This uttribucable TO fhis lacfcinc ihc orMorlral ability and power of graphic aud poetical which was so Tvre-cniiiittntty sliowu ly lied Cloull sind his coin- pauions. There was evidently consitlerabie sympathy -ttitli the otjjcct of the mission of Ihe Indians, very simple addressee awakened a rrctiuent vollev of applause. The white speaKers endeavored to make political capital for tlie coming residential election occsisionany, but the attempt was not very successful.

Ttic chair WAS taken by Mr. Peter Cooper, who Raid that abuut this time last year lied Cloud and his party favored this city with a visit. He men promised to quiet liis people and he lia.s raitlmiliy that, promise. There was now before the meeunjr another jariv of indiaus wlio were on tlu-ir way home from Washington. These Indians, instead of being: on lite warpath, were on tue pathway or peace, and this was another evidence of the peace policy of Frcsideru Urant, who was not desirous or adding to the Heavy war millions of dollars.

KITTLE KAVKS. Jn Indian costume, then nddresaed the audience through an interpreter, and sai-1 that lie had conic sec Ids friends, lie understood tliut lie had a lather and mother here, and that the people hud made road lie rcL'L-ived a letter while he wjjs at tus camp Irom und he had noped time lie should have had earlier than he uid, so ttiat the Indians could gel tltcir wrongs put risJit. lie told all uts younc men to Teinam quiet until he returned, when he liopca to have cooa stcry to tell mem. He was flail to sec so many there that many frcmie- men so many ladles and children. Jit 1 ttmugLic God Uad KOincthlns to do with bringing them all there.

At one time the Ariipahoes had a flue country. A few white men ciimc to see them, and at Ilrst.

Many of tbo.se men came on. fool, and lie understood there vrere children from don't you liaiijt the who i (he Indians cried one of the audience.) Little Haven said he was uu old man, tiiat he hurl walied for 3 earn to have this tiling Jtred.

While men cume there very poor, nml tlien they jjot houses, horses and land, and he thought soon they would get enough; but, Hiev never seemed to enough. Tuc Koverumem sent ajceuts out there, and sent soldiers there ami drives the Ariipahoes out, and he did not want to liiiut; but if he tola ton about it they would do what was Up to that time lie and his people lived well enmigh.

(Applause.) Some lime ago tney sent word that the Arapahoes were to go to a certain location, ana the agents HenttUem seven davs' rations, which only lasted tliem two days. He hoped that Uotl would put a heart ia tue waitc people, U.UQ that will do rigln. BOTFALO GOOD, of the Washltos, said he wanted to be there that to make a strong talk. He believcii God hud sent Tiiunderer and himself there. He was glad to be there, Tor lie had heard a long time hero were a.

great many Norilieru people who did not know what Injuries ttve Indiana received. He would tell a straight story and no lies. He nad Heard that God gave the white man a greater ana better road for the white men to travel in, but. that toe time was to coma when tne Indian was to have a better road. He thought tliat time was nearly come, and lie was looting for tliat road now and cUd not get tireu loosing for it.

He und his people wanted schoolliouaes built and their children taught like white people. He heard time there was an oll gentleman in tala house who niueU the poor people in all the country. (Cheers for Air. Peter Cooper.) TUe Indians had a flne country where ne came from, but Washington hue taken it away auO given to other Indians. The white people had rtouo a great wrong 1 (o his people und he to nave it stopped.

He saw tue Commission at "Washington autl tliey tola ulm that lie was tfoing to have it ilxed up. but tliat tie haa heard that so loug he believed was a lie. jLaugliter.) The Commissioner, told liim that ifihe went to the largo towns and would valt to the people the people would treat nun kindly, and it had been so; and lie thinks tuat in tills cose the Commissioner talked straight. What he wished was for the white people to stoi toe soldiers froai killing tiic Indians. Since ue liaa becu acre he had neard that some of tlie tribe had been killed.

The Indians were on the land, and they could not help beiug there. LITTLE ROltE, of the Clieyennes. tho successor of Black Kettle and the chief of the tribe, said thac lie iully endorsed wliat, Little Raven said. 31 K. W.

E. HODGE said tbat he had mec these Indians in their own country, and before speaking they always went round and shook nands with him. Dodge taen shook, hands wltb. each Indian.) He then said, mat, as one of the Commissioners senc to visit me Indiana, He Had seen tnese sons of the forest in tneir Home. The Indians Uad told tlie audience a simple story, nut it was the story of two hundred years ago.

Kver since the Jamling of our ancestors 011 tue Plymouth Kocfc the Indians has bad the same tale to tell. It was not too late ior the nation to do something for the liltle tribe of Indians that were left. Where were the JMouawKs and the ix of this Sffite, whom Mr. Cooper remembered in his youth- 1 They were all swept away. By far tue larger portion of the land which the great American people boasted was now- tljeirewas once the grouna of the noble sous 01 the forest.

The poor Indian was driven lutlier and thither by the railroads, looking for a place on which to place His foot. Tlie nation had promised to do this and tliat Tor tnem, yet many of these promises remained tmfuIUlled to this dav. Tlie military experience of General Grant had taught him that something ought to be done to save a remnant of these Indians. The policy of the present administration, it can be carried out, will be to place Tne Indians on their reservations and educate and train them to walk in the wliite mau path. It nail been settled Uy tlie Indians just out of Kansas that they could adopt civiiizeu uabits.

What was now wanted was to put the Indians on tliese reservations ana spend a little of the money that had been spent in butchering them to educate, elevate anJ Christianize them. The great oljecL of the friend of the Indians was to let the people see them at public meetings and see that; the Indians could be civilized. There waa sometiiing that citizens could do, and that was they couid manufacture public opinion. These Indians were looking to tlie wtiitc men to save tnem from extermination ami to teac-n mem Clirlsilaauy. 5fK.

HEN'JAMtN' TATHA1I said tliat He, wild others, had pleaded the cause of the Indian before General Graut previous to his in- uuiruraiion. ana tne President promised to do what lie coulri for tue Indian, and he (Mr. believed Unit the promise had been Kept. (Cneers.) Mr. Tatham traced the history of tlie treaties from Uio year 1651 to tho present time, and tho result of those treaties was that the Indians before them had been robbeit of every loot of land they possessed.

The speaker then ryed upon tne audience not to cast a ballot a President that fell less for the Indian the prcs- cut President. (Cheers.) Professor MABTIN called the attention of the audience to the recent louian massacre, and wmch. had been onicialiy reported to tlie authorities at California. Tula had been tUe culmination of a series of bloody wars between the Indians and the citizens of America. He read some extracts from Dr.

Hall's worlc entitled Tracks in North America," alter which the meeting adjourned. ARiSY IKTELLIEENCE.
