Arrival of Gen. Albert Pike--his success in the West.

Gen. Albert Pike, of Arkansas, arrived in Richmond last Saturday, on business connected with his labors among the Indian nations of the West as Commissioner of the Confederate States. His mission, thus far has proved an entire success, and favorable treaties have been made with all the numerous and powerful tribes scattered through the vast territory lying between Kansas and New Mexico. They have now four regiments of troops in the field, and are making common cause with the South. The advantage of such an alliance at this time is incalculable, and the ultimate results will be no less important. The enmity of these Indians in such an emergency as the present, would have been a source of perpetual annoyance and injury. The hazardous and laborious undertaking of Gen. Pike, and its successful accomplishment, entitle him to the highest praise and gratitude.
