Death of an Indian Chief at Washington city. --The Washington Star, of a recent date, contains an account of the death and burial of "Yellow Wolf," who was sent to that city as one of the delegates to see President Lincoln. The Star says: The Government furnished the coffin, which was a very fine one. About half an hour before the breath left the deceased his companions commenced to paint his face, hands, and feet with red paint, and then securing new clothing and new blankets they arrayed the dying chief in them. A few moments before expiring, Yellow Wolf sent to Major S. G. Colley, the Indian Advent for that and other tribes, and taking the agent's hands, said to him: "We have come a great way to see our Great Father and make peace. I have seen the big Father, and am at peace with every one--with the Great Spirit and with the Great Father — and I am now going to lie down and sleep with him here."

e seen the big Father, and am at peace with every one--with the Great Spirit and with the Great Father — and I am now going to lie down and sleep with him here." As soon as the chief expired, his companions took his bow and arrows and broke them in half. They were then made up in a bundle, together with his other effects, and will be buried with him, as also will his buffalo robes and blankets, and all that he owned at the time of his death. A large silver medal, a present from President Jefferson to Yellow Wolfs successors, will be buried with him also. This appears almost ridiculous, as it has been handed down from father to son since the days of President J., and is a connecting link between the present and the past which should be placed in charge of the Government. But the Indians insist upon its interment with Yellow Wolf, and the agents do not desire to offend them by a refusal. Yellow Wolf was nearly fifty years of age, and Maj. Colley, the agent of the tribe, an
