We had the pleasure Of meeting with Mr.. p. D.
Papin, who, with about thirty Others engaged in
the services Of the American Fur Company has
just reached this city BY the fine steamer Duroc,
from the Missouri. These gentlemen left Fort
Pierre, Of the trading establishments Of Messrs
P. Choutess, Jr. Il Co., some four weeks since,
with six Machinsc boats boats, loaded with robes
and furs on the 10th instant they arrived in safety
at Belvue, at which point they transferred them
selves and the csrgoes of their boats to the Durec
The freight was quite large, and perhaps more
valuable thaa,any that has come to hand for soma
months. :.'' III
Mr.. Papin reports that great deal If mortality
prevailed among the Sioux tribe Of Indians, during
the last winter and that at least 1000 fell victims
to those terribs scourges the cholera and small pox
The latter disease was still raging, and it was feared
that its direful influence would be extended to other
tribes. During the tribulations felt by the unfor
tunate Indians the traders in the employ Of Messrs
P. Chouteau Jr. " CO., were untiring in theil
efforts to afford relief Being well provided by the
company with medicine and vaccine matter, they
were always prepared 10 attend on the afflicted
| lives Of thousands. t-,'
The more credulous of the Red men are firmly
of the opinion, that they owe the introduction O
the disease into their country to the large California
emigration which haser0ssed the plains since 1919
The agents of the American Fur Company have
preston from the minds Of these children Of ma
lture. Al
Mr.. Papin further states, that on the 26th ult
while he was at the Big Cheyenne, near Crane
river, he met the Expess, which was conveying
D. D.. Mitchel's invitation to the various tribes Il
assemble at Fort Laramie, at an early day This
expedition was going on with great rapidity, which
is in great measure 70 be attributed 10 the facli
ties afforded by the energetic Honore Pilotte, Esq
the agent at Fort Pierre, who furnished the mos
complete arrangements for carrying out the PLAN
of the government in this matter. 1t was the gen
efal impression that the invitation would be res
pended to ina friendly manner, by a majority o
The tribes, and unless the sickness continues to pre-

Sickness ON the sRice.--The steamer st. Ang,

been some sickness on the St. Ange, and Their,
were five deaths from cholera, and two others wer,
not expected to live. The favorable change in the
weather had, however, checked the ravages Of the
disease, and it was confidently hoped that ther'
would be no more morality during the voyage.
1t will be recoected that the St. Ange, under
| charter to the American Fur Company, left her,
last week for Yellowstone. She took UP larg,
