INDIAN MURDERS.

On Thursday night, the Sd inst. a party
or about 80 Indians broke into the Pidgeon
Roost settlement IN the Indiana territory
Is or 20 miles from West Port, Gin Henry
county, and murdered :. number Of families
-21 persons were buried and or 8 hu-
man stull bones were found in the ashes Of
a house which was burnt down.--It is sup
posed more have been killed, as several are
missing. The murjcrers are supposed to
be Delawafcs. One Indian was Killed and
another woumded--they were Of that tribe.
All The persons rnassacr@d, with one or two
exceptions were women and children.
Fired with indignation at this dreadful
massacre, the citizens Of Shelby, Henry,
jefferson and Galatin, to the number we
are informed of 7 or 800, repaired to the
spot where the mischief was done, and
marched in pursuit Of the savages.
As soon as the above accommodated this,

some from this town went on to the place
where tile murders we're committed
Capt. Edmund Bacon Of this place raised a

LATEST FROM THE ARMY.


FROM MAJOR FLOYD wholeft the Army
under Gen. Harrison on Sunday last, and
arrived III this place on "Wednesday even
ing, we derived the following information ::
gentleman who was in Detroit when it
was surrendered, arrived at Piqua on Sa-
turday and informed Gen. Harrison that on
the 22d OF Esd ult. Maj. Chambers at the
head OF or,300 British regular troops, and
300 Indians under Tecumseh, left the ra-
pids of the Miami of the Lake to attack
Fort Wayne. In consequence of this infor-
nation, Col. ALLEN who had been order
ed on with detachment of 600 men to the
relief of Fort Wayne on the 4th inst. was
stopped on the 5th, until the balance of the
army should come up with him. He was
SO miles in advance of Piqua at the river St.
Mary's. Gen. Harrison was to march on
Monday evening or Tuesday morning early,
from Piqua for Fort Wayne with the ba-
lance OF his army.-The detachment under
Allen was supposed to be too weak to en-
Counter the combined force under the Bri-
fish and Indians. Major Floyd does not
calculate on the army reaching Fort Wayne
before this day or tomorrow consequent
" we shall hear nothing from it before
Thursday or Friday next.
The Indians at Piqua were wavering-
and for long time would come to no posi-
tive conclusion they, however, at last, pro-
missed to remain peaceable-but it was be-
lieved they would join the hostile tribes as
soon as they dispersed they left Piqua on
Sunday and Monday last.
The Delaware Indians were moving their
families back upon the unfrendly tribes
This accounts for the murders lately com
mitted on the Pidgeon Roost settlement !;
which probably are The first they have COM
united, and indicate q most inveterate
hostility. So much for Grand Councils, Big
Talks &c. with prccl of Migrants and
scoundrels, who ought long since to have
been driven entirely from our territories.
Governor Harrison. we understand, re-
quests 500 mounted volunteers to go on af-
ter the force which has already marched to
Vmcennes 1t is believed, should the Br-
fish and Indians have taken Fort Wayne
before Harrison arrives there, they will
march Immediately for Fort Harrison at
Ninsennes.
The British have given Tecumseh Bri-
gadier generals commission.
Flints were very scarce in our army; the
Shakers had purchased all they could find
in Ohio
The most expeditions movements are re-
CURED on the part of the force under Gen.
Hopkins, to save the western frontier of In
dams from the greatest distress. Notwith-
standing this. we are told, every thing al
most necessary for an army, is wanting by
Miller's regiment, which has been lying at
Louisville OF 10 days. Much depends up :
on the patriotism and alacrity of the brave
sons OF kentucky, in furnishing a, respecta-
bic number of mounted volunteers, whocan
move with celebrity to any point menaced by
the. savages.
Harrison will be able TO protect the from
tiers OF Ohio and the Northwestern parts of
his own territory, and it is hoped Hopkins
will be on time enough to protect Vncenncs
and carry on offensive war against the Wa
bash Indians.
