Correspondence Of the 81. Louis Republican,
INDEpENDewcE Aupuet If 1881

Correspondence of the 81. Louis Republican
INDEPENDENCE, August l6, 1851
Since wrote you the other day have had the
opportunity OF learning little further news from
the Plains, from young who reached our
county day or go ago Our informant had been
living little while at Barclay and Doyle's Fort,
the Moro; feeling little anxious to come to the
States, and not willing TO pay the price asked him
by the major domos of the trains, he shoudered
his rifle, and, with little pony, started off into the
wilds by himself. II was a piece of hardhood UNI
called for, and for his temerity might have suffered
the loss of his life; but, fortunately, Indians
were on the trail, and he reached Fort Mackay
with his jaded animal in safety. After recruiting
little while, he started out again, as boldly as be-
fore, and made, in good time, the little Arkansas
river this stream he found swollen to an unusual
height he ventured to Cross and in the act los his
pony, his gun and ammunition, and the little he
had to eat. Here was a predicament! In the
midst of an Indian country, without any thing
to protect or defend himself with, any thing
to sustain the cravings of his body Plucking
up courage, he tried it on foot, and after time
reached the States This, in brief, is what many
of our border men sometimes compelled to
endure to obtain livelihood. Mr.. Rippetoe is
the mans name. He left the Moro the 18th of
July; his travelling time to the States was eighteen
days. Just as he was leaving the settlements
courier arrived from Santa Fe and the Rio Abajo,
and stated that the river was never known to be
low at that season OF the year. An unusual drought
had prevailed all parts of the country, and it
thought the crops of corn and wheat would be
very short, hardly enough to afford bread and
provender for man and beast.
All the early trains had passed the fort on their
way to Santa Fe. Mr. Barclay had reached the
fort with his wagons.
/ MIR. Mayors, while encamped for day at the
Upper Cimarone spring, and while all the men in
their leisure had gone out to hunt antelope except
ing two, party Of Indians camo up to the wagons,
overturned the provision wagon and rifed it of it's
contents feeling satisfied, they then left, without
doing further damage.

No advicss have yet been received at any Of
the Departments from any Of the Government
officers at New Orleans Of the sailing Of the
Fanny and Alabama, or OF the outrages said TO
have been committed in that city against the
Spanish consul. AS we write this, despatch
from cur agent at Baltimore was put into our
hands, purporting to contain intelligence from
New Orleans Of the 23d and Goth instant.
The despatch of the first date says that the
letter-book of the Spanish consul had been
seized by the mob, and found to contain the
names of many citizens as prescribed and re-
ported to the Spanish authorities 1t is stated
that portions of them will be published.
The despatch of the Goth instant states
that the city was quiet, and that thousand
liberaters were waiting conveyance TO Cuba
under the command of Gen. FELIX HUsToN.
From this we should infer that, up to the 10Th
instant, the Fanny and Alabama had not sailed,
or there would not have been such an overflow
of the patriots in the city.
The alleged outrages upon the Spanish con-
sui were said to have been committed on, the
Dist and 22d instant. Ii is not credible that the
Government officers at New Orleans would have
failed to Communicate information of this ma
ture to the Departments they represent, II 1t
had been true to the extent which the telegraph
has reported
