Indisn DiGiculties.

We learn from the Prairie du Chen Patriot
+ that the Winnebago Indians are returning te
Wisconsin from their late home on the Grow
Wing. Serious trouble is apprehended from
these movements and unless the Government
provide more suitable location for these poor
people, they must starve or steal
The Government of the United States has
swindled these poor indians, and though no
earthly tribunal has Jurisdiction of the crime,
there il a bar before which even nations must
appear and plead. These indians were com
pclled to sell their hunting grounds to the Gov
eminent for just what the latter was willing to
give, and accept in part payment such lands as
were utterly unfit for the habitatiohs Of man.

pc who can commit, OK be accessory to the COM
mission Of such outragcs.
