INDIANS WARS.

Bv advlces recently received at The War
Department, grounds are furnished fol
serious apprehension that an Indian out.
break will occur near Council Bluffs, be.
tween the Sioux on the enc part and thai
portions Of the Ouawas, Chippe was, and
Postawotamies in that vicinity, on the other
part. The Secretary Of War was indaced
by rumors to the same effect, TO send q
company of dragons 10 Council Bluffs, to
protect the Indians there, and prevent the
apprehended outbreak. The communist.
ITEMS now received give the matter more
determined aspect than it heretofore wore.
The '0ttawas, ChipPewas and Pouawo,a.
mics have written letter, under date OF
the 9TH ofMay, to unite in resisting the
Sioux. The letter represents to be assem-
blsd, preparatory 10 a hostile irrup,on into
the country ofthe united band, ard that
they have sent runners among the Sioux
villages onthe SrPeter's for renforcemen,s
so as to be IN strength sufficien, 10 insure
success. The 0uawas, ,Chippewas and
Pottawotamies inform the Delawarss that
they have one hundred men on the borders
Of their land on the lookou.sfor The Sioux.
and call for assistance in the vigorous de-
fence they intend 10 make. This letter

ding officer at Fort Leavcnwer!h, end sent
by hin tc the Indian Agent who has charge
Of the Delawarss, through whom il reached d
the Indian Office. Strong hopes are enter.
tanned that meeting of the hostile parties
will be prevented. But the Sioux are turb-
uleni. reste, and dilighs in war. The
Madisoniaa says that in this instance
measures have been taken which, il ia, hop.
ed, will effect the desired object. We hsar!.

Under this title, some of the English
papers give frightful accounts of the condi.
tion Of the laborlng classes, ,and especially
oil those engaged in working in mines. A
gentleman named Binney lately visited
Lancashire, distinguished himself as a
worrying miner, and in that character was
enabled to walk about the pit, and make
his observation without suspicion or inter.
ference on the part of the overlooks or 9th.
or persons interested in suppressing the
truth The shaf.1sy which he decended
was about 200 yards in depth, and upon
reaching the bottom he traversed the wagon
way for 500 or 600 yards 10 the boards or
ebays, down which the GOALS were being
carried in tubs. Here found about 30 bows
and girls 'employed-,heir ages varying
from 10 years to 10 or 90, and upwards. It
was atfirss difficult to distinguish the sexes
in this party, as both, when anired for
work, are clothed in a miners rough
frock and trousers, and il was only by the
exposure of the upper part OF their persons
OF which no care is taken to conceal, that he
was enabled to tell the females from the
males around him-itis to be observed tina,
