The Van Buren (Ark.) Intellieencer,
learns by letter from Col. Upshaw, the
vigilant agent of the Chickasaws, dated
April 25th, that conflicts have recently Ia
ken place between some Indians of the
Prairie tribes and the citizens of Texas,
in the vicinity of Fort Washita. Col. U.
writes thata party of Wacoes, killed three
surveyors, citizens of Texas. Subsequent
10 the murders, party of rangers snrpri-
sed them while they were drying the
scalps of the three white men, all Of which
party, (four in number they killed. A
bout the same time detachment Of Capt.
Johnson's rangers fell in with a party OF
Indians, and while holding tolk through
an interpreter, the Indians fired upon
them, when commenced brisk fight, which
continued until about twelve sf'fhe In
dams were killed, and number wound
ed, when the survivors fled. i
Ti.s-fntelligenoer says: sW
Col. Upshaw Is also informed, upon
good Indian authority, that about i2O
kickapoos crossed Red River, 80 miles
above Fort Washita, short time since,
all on foot, evidently war party. Their
destination is not known. Their march
