Information which it is supposed may be
implicitly relied on, has been received in
Gicative of the hostile intention of the
Nissi ssippi Indians; of their threatening
various parts of our frontier by an early
movement in the spring of their deter
mnation to make all the Deighbouring
Indians join them; of their having already
commenced hostiltics on the blissoQri, By
having in few days past killed three men,
cut off their heads, ripped oct theis hearts,
and otherwise mangled their bodies in the
most shocking manner, ftoo indicate to
mention;) OF their having also taken
prisoner and Of their having twelve diff
ferent war parties now out watching OPP
portunities to murder our citizens and de-
predate their property.
Under these circumstances we are happy
to find that the enterprising and vigilant
officer who commands on our frontier, is
putting the force under his command in the
most active operation, and using all the ef-
forts in his power to give protection to the
country.
