Fcr lne daWkeye and Patriot.
Mr. Editor--By your paper of the first
inst, | discover that HARD FISH and his
party have been holding talk with his
Excellency, the Governor, in which s.,hey
deny having any knowledge that any of
their tribe set fire TO the Trading House
of P. Chouteau, Jr., & Co., and aver that
they believe the fire was communicated
by incautiously erecting fire within it a
short time previous to its having caught
fire.
The ahidavits Of Messrs Jurney and
Berry hereto appended clearly prove that
the averment of Hard Fish and his party
is entirely without foundation, and that
there can hardly be doubt but what the
building was fred by one of their party.
Hence their anxiety to point GU. how the
fire originated.
These gentlemen, with Col. James
Wells, of Missouri, gentleman of the
highest responsibility, accidentally called
in the evening at the Trading House to
pass the night, at which time all the
hands belonging to the Trading House
Except Edward Woods, who was killed
by the explosion Of the powder,) were
absent. Their testimony is that of disin-
terested persons. The affidavit of Col.
Wells confirms those of Messrs Jurney
and Berry, and can be seen at the Office
of the Governor
This is not the first time that we have
suffered by this party of Indians. Some
years ago, they robbed one of our Trad
ing Houses, in charge Of Mr. VIM. Avery.
Hard Fish was the leader Of the party.
The goods were afterwards paid for, out
of the annuities Of the Sacs and Foxes.

1errsfory Of iotca.
|, William j. Berry, residing on the
Iowa River, Iowa Territory, hereby sol.
emily depose, that on the night between
the Esd and Gath days of February, ls4l.
| was present at the Trading Post of p.
Chouteau, Jr., Il Co., on the Des Moines
River, near this agency, above written;
that abou. the hour Of two or three
o'clock the Store House of said Post
was found to be on fire; that turned out
Immediately on the alarm being given;
that l perceived at that time tie greater
portion of the roof to be on fire; that ef-
forts were made by all present to remove
the property, particularly the powder
within the store; and that not exceeding
a half hour after the alarm, the store was
blown up by a quantity of powder, not
recollected at the time to have been in
the building; that the greatest portion of
the property was injured and destroyed,
and two persons, viz: an Indian and
white man, killed.
| further depose that was in the said
building about sunset of the previous
evening, at which time, to my certain
knowledge, there was neither fire or can
die in any part Of said building; that in
person locked the door; and that to the
best of my beliefsaid store was not again
entered before the fire was discovered;
and that, also, about my hour of retiring,
between 8 and 10, P. A., l was out, and
perceived no sign of fire abou. the store.
| also depose, that from the appearance
and position of the fire, it is my belief it
was first communicated TO the roof of a
shed against, and in the rear of said build
ing; that under this shed was carriage
that must have been completely destroyed
by the fire before the explosion, as the
irons fell where it had stood, and the log
side Of the building was not consumed at
the time Of the explosion; that to the best
of my knowledge and belief there was
not any fire in the neighborhood by which
this could have been communicated by
accident; and that the goods and skins
were mostly destroyed, although have
no idea of their value, or the amount of
loss.

On first reading this ably aoritte,s epis-
tie, | could not imagine what "driiling
the Indians" could mean-but when the
Trading House on the Des Moines was
burnt, nay eyes were opened to the sub
ject. But, much as "Veritas" may 'sre-
vere" the name of the '',aoble'' and "pat-
riotic" BLACK HAWK! and great as he
may consider the "patriotic spirit . OF
HARD FISH, as an sable ADVOCATE and
leader" he will find that it will require
much "dri2ing" to get him to lead his
party to ,var, either against the whites Or
Indians. The scenes OF the Black Hawk
war are too fresh in his recollection, and
SO long as he carries in his shoulder the
bullet received from the whites in that
war, it will act as an incentive to curb
his warlike passions. IS 81.
