COO-IVKE-SKOO-AVEK C'OL'KT- HousKj.Junc 2. The court-house in Coo-wec-skoo-vvec district of tho Cherokee nation is a small lo.builcUnr situated in a shelt tiiod nook of oak timber in the midst of a sea of green prairie, with the essential of a fine, bold spring near by. the locality thus possessing the three requisites for good camping wood, rras and water. As we rode up yesterday morning we found evidences that a session of a Cherokee court was about to be held here. Horses equipped with rolled blankets and a coil of lariat, which form bed and stable for rider and animal, were tied under the trees or grazing.on the prairie, and there was a wagon or two drawn up for a more elabo rate camp. Men, booted and spurred, with .slouched hats and belted waists, were standing or sitting about discussing the state of the growing crops or the proba bilities of the coming trial, and there were constant arrivals from the trail through the timber or over the prairie. It was the usual mi.i.. nccmkin,M ...... f;r.t flir. nrrinncWrt nrmrlttinn f t lirt Cherokee nation, with oerhaos a larger intermixture of white blood amono- the praiiie farmers and ranchmen of this district than would have been manifested among the dwellers of the wooded regions east ot the Grand river, the aboriginal Cherokee having a fondness for the forest. Many fine figures of physical manhood j were apparent among thorn, and all had the free beai ing of an inde pendent and vigorous life, while attendance upon the court had made no difference in their accus tomed wa3's and dress. The Cherokoes have a regularly adopted and written code of laws, dating back to 1808, and it was resolved by a council of the war riors and head men of the nation, held on the banks of the Hiawas- see, put upon record by some English interpreter, and signed by the marks of Black Fox and Toochaler, head chiefs, that the Cherokee murdering his fellow of the same nation should suffer death unless he should find him in pos session of his horse, when the slayer should "be left to his own conscience." The spirit of this latter provision prevails to some extent to the present day, and there is hardly a Ckerokee jury but what would bring a verdict ot justifiable homicide for the shoot ing of a thief with a stolen horse in his possession. The present code of Cherokeo law is written and published in a volume and does not differ in any essential degree except in simplicity of language from the procedure and penalties provided by the statutes of the states. The nation is divided into judicial districts, in which courts are hold twice a year, and for special sessions. The supreme court, composing a chief justice and two associates, has jurisdic tion in trials for murder and ap pealed cases; the district courts take cognizance of the lighter cases of homicide, assault and rob bery, and there are also judges with powers . corresponding to thoae of ordinary magistrates, for the purpose of dealing with minor offenses. The laws are executed and arrests made b the sheriffs of the districts, who have power to call for as mauyas they may think necessary to mount and ride. At Tahlequah, the capital town, there is a stone jail where the prisoners are kept and where oc casionally one is hung. Such is the mnrliinerv of Cherokee iaw fori the administration of justice among, themselves, all offenses by and upon white men and violation of intercourse laws and 1 1 eaties com - ing under the jurisdiction of the j marked with tobacco juice and the j eircuimaaures, and confidently an- j eS JljJh , JJjJjer. gjgj United Statr-s district court at ' dignity of his office, the work of , ticipating a Minihir cour.-o ot at- of tin general ivefunrtinns.

The assembly 'filed in and took their places on the rude benches. The judge was a genial I and accomplished gentleman, entirely white in ajipearanee. al- though of ancient Cherokee famihy. He had been a major in the Indian brigjidc in the Confederate" service during the war and is familiar and greatly iikod in Washington, where he frequently atuves as a member of the Cherokee delega- horses grazed and the whippoor tion to look after the interests of the , wills samr loud and near, ana the nation betore eongre. lie had not thought it essential to the dig- nity ot the supreme court to don a collar, and the handle of his long reed pipe stuck out of his side pocket. He was accommodated j with a seat in a sort of pen and! by his side sat the elerk in his J shirt sleeves, a half breed Delaware, r i ,i i. :.-n:, ! munication witn ins iionor. i The defendant was acconnno-' dated with a cane-bottomed chair in the center of the room facing; the jude. He was one of the finest specimens of western man hood F have ever seen, lie was the tallest in a crowd of tall men and overtopped figures of six feet by more than a head. lie was. perhaps, a tnlle too slim for exact proportion, but bj no means lathy: and his vigorous form was a model of litheness and easy activity. Ilis regular features were deeply bronzed by the sun, but wero handsome and strong with an air of adventurous courage, and there was a spark of ready fire in his hazel eye. He took his seat easily, wound one limb over the other and tilted back in his chair. Being summoned to plead, he raised his tall form and, after a voluminous expectoration, responded calmly, "not guilty," and -resumed his seat.

After the ad- do journment of the. court the assem bly sat about the building or the spring and chatted aw.hile, depart- ing by twos and threes through the woods and over the. prairie trails, except those who made camps.
