cute the claim of the state in a court of
justice, it is not deemed necessary. at
this time, TO discuss its merits in the
newspapers. 1t is probable, however,
that the Fund Commissioner NAV deem it
proper to publish at length his correspon-
dence with MIR. Dclaiield, in which event
the public will be enabled to view the
whole matter in its true light. In the
mean time, the bona fde holders of the
bonds may rest assured that no act will be
done, or suffered, by the Fund Commits
sioner, dcrogatory to their just rights, or
the good faith of the state.

1t has been already stated that the Agent
of the state of Illinois, had brought suit
in New York for the recovery of bonds
to large amount. We find in the New
York American the following publication
on the subject:
We are desired in behalf Of Richard T.
Barrett, the Fund Commissioner of the
state of Illinois, and who is now absent
from this city, to state that the article III
the New York Times, of July 23d,
which pretends to state the merits of the
claim of the state of Illinois, against Mr..
John Delalield, TO recover from him bonds
to the amount of $5s3,000 obtained by
him from the former Fund Commissioner,
is erroneous in most, if not all, its essen

ton that Mr.. Barrett, after having propos-
ed term of compromise tc Mr.. DclaGeld,
refused to carry such propositions into eff
feet.

most shockingly mangled by the Indians 1t
seems about o'clock, p. NJ, he was sent into the

while thus employed, was shot; the white per-

The Indians, after plundcring and burning the
houses, cut down every fruit tree in the orchard,
which was said to be very extensive
