WAR AND PEsTILENcE AMONG THE INDIANS
gentleman just in from the mountains informed
the "Missourian" on the 18th, that the measles had
broken out among the Sioux, while on a war excur-
sion against the Crows, on the Yellow Stone river,
and that from 700 to 800 had died. The Crows
having heard of the prevalence of the measles
among the Sioux, retired in CONSERVATION towards
the mountains. The Sioux, disappointed in meeting
the Crows, fell upon the lodges of peaceable
prairie tribe, killing 20, and taking so prisoners
This occurred on the 10th May last. The Crows
and Sioux are hereditary enemies and carry on
unceasng hostites. Last fall, the Sioux made an
ncursion into the Crow country, where they we're
met by the Crows and defeated-some 35 or 40 war
riors fell IN the battle To avense the death of their
comrades, the strong expedition was fitted out this
spring, which proved a failure on account of the
measles breaking out in camp. The Crows are the
smallest Indians within territory, but have
strong bodies, capable of sustaining incredible fn-
tlgue and hardship; and in bravery and all the arts
OF Indian warfare, are more than a match for the
Sioux. They are represented by tie traders as the
most peaceabe and trusty tribe Of the mountains.

the fugitive second from late Partisan duel was
in New York, one of our ladies requested his per.
mission to present to him French gentleman who
had formerly served with his father under Napoleon
but who, through tickle fortunes vagaries had been
forced to teach school in that city. The Count
shrugged his shoulders in the most dignifed style al
the profession of his fathers friend, and, refusing to
be introduced said:
"Madame, in la belle France, re gentilhomme
nevare teach school, Excuse moi, if | shall no have

PERLoUs SIrUATIoN.-NARRow ESCAPE OF ABOUT
100 PERSONS We do not remember to have heard
for long time the particulars Of more exciting and
narrow escape from death, by one hundred persons,
than occurred on Monday night last. We have
mentioned the severe storm of rain, lightning, and
thunder which occurred on that night. The steamer
Louis McLane, one of the passenger packets run
ming to Brownsville had left the city that evening on
her way up, with over eighty passengers, besides
the crew and others, and had got within short dis
lance of Wiamspert, when hurricane struck her
broadside in the middle of the river. Catching the
boat with tremendous force, it instantly keeed her
over, but provdentiay, at that place the water was
shallow, and instead of capszing wholly the weight
of the boat came down the larboard guard, which
struck the bottom, and prevented her from careening
over entirely.
Let any one imagine the horror of the scene. The
lightning flashing every side, the rain pour
ing down, and the boat lying her side part of her
forward cabin nearly destroyed; one chimney over
board the other the roof the crowd of passengers
who had jumped from their berths hurled to one
side of the cabin in mass the smashing of every
decanter, tumber plate, cup, &c, in the bar and
pantry; the crash of the the cabin and cook
house against the sides, the whizzing of the
and revolution Of the engines; the shril shreks and
cries of the women and children, the hoarse calls of
the men, the shouts and orders of the officers all
rising together, as if in contest with the wild tenn
pest as il rushed by the lightning it glared, and
the rain as it FELL and we may form some concep-
ton of the awfuness Of the occurrence. 1t is fright
full to think Of it,
The boat soon righted, and the officers were en-
abed to get her to Brownsville The captain, Z. Ben
net was in the pilot-house at the time, and acted
with heroic promptness. One of the engineers, we
are informed fled from his post but the other stood
firm, and, by great exertions stopped the engine he
was at, and then managed to get TO the other and
stop it also.
None of the passengers were very much injured,
though many of them were somewhat bruised. The
McLane is so much injured that it is thought several
weeks will be required to repair her.
