II requires majority Of the whole

election by tho people and the Governor
has to be elected by both Houses in joint
ballot.
The result therefore depends upon the
complexion Of the Legislature.

show that up TO The moment Of prepa-

majority of five al the Senate Board,

ALARMING INTELLIGENCE FROM THE
INDIAN CoUNTRY.-SiA Mackinaw boats
arrived last evening from the Platte
river, with robes to P. ChOuteau,
jr. g. Co. We have been permitted 10
see a letter from the US. Blacksmith
at Willow Creek, (Pawnes county,) 10
his friend in this city, dated on the Both
of June, giving an account Of the mur-
ders committed by the Sioxu Indians
upon the Pawnees, aud upon the wife Of
tho Blacksmith. His wife was shot on
Tuesday morning, the 9th. about 7 o.
clock. The husband had endeavored 10
save her by shutting her up in the shop,
but she had not time 10 bolt the door, land
it was burst open. She was killed, and
they fell 10 whipping the blacksmith,
without doing him serious injury, having
their guns all the while cooked, ready 10
fire.
The Indians had also killed Lashapel,
the U. S. Interpreter, who had been in
that country for 25 years: Capt. Blue,
first Chief Of the Pawnee Tappagnes,
and father.in-law of the Interpreter; a
sou-in-law of the old chief Monlin, and
several other Chiefs and Braves, young
men, women and children. 1t is also
stated. that out of Al lOdges,2l of The
largest were burnt, and most of the hOrs
es were stolen or killed on the spot
Tho Pawnee Indians had left their vii.
lagos to 60 on their Spring Hunt.
Willow Greek from whence this let-
ter is dated, is $50 miles up the Platte
river, and the Sioux are $50 miles above
it. These indians have exhibited hos
tile feeling on several occasions during
the winter, and this attack on the Paw
nees had been expected for some time.
We are told that the United States are
bound, by treaty stipulation, to protect
the Pawnee tribes from such invasions,
and are surprised that some efforts have
not been made to prevent these
murders. II the Indians are not enti-
tied to protection, certainly those in the
employ Of the Go overnment may claim
it.
