PLATTE RIVER, OPPOSITE Fort LARAMIE,
june g. 1852.
We arrived here yesterday morning, the Sci.
after journey Of two weeks, from New Fort
KesrDy. Our route has been somewhat different
one from that Of any previous emigration. We cross
cd the main Platte twenty miles above New Fort
Kearny, to the north side the ford proved 10 be
good one, owing 70 the great width the river,
which is ut this point two miles IN width On
the north side Of the river we foand much better
grade, good roads and water Timber is On
firey lost sight Of for two hundred miles;
but We found an abundance Of buffalo chips
answering very well FOR fuel The emgration
on the north side Of the river is much greater than
that on the south the great mass OF them hailing
from Missouri, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, aud Wis
consin. There has been considerable diarrhea,
owing, believe, 10 nearly every case, to impru-
oence in eating drinking water from pools. Our
Journey thur far, bias been performed AT an average
Of twenty five miles day We suffer very much
from the great quantity Of dust that we have had to
encounter On some portions Of the road We have
met with dry white sand, which is very hard upon
our teams. Inns sand continues in some places
for twenty miles; and wherever we meet with sandy
roads, the oetestaois sand fly in millions. torments
us and mosquitoes have also been very had
Along the Platte, the principal growth consists Of
very coarse grass, and few cotton. woods and will
lows, and stunted cedars. Upon tue pleins we
found short bard grass, much of the lhst ,,oar,y
growth recently burned and still burning IN evcry
direction and within fifty miles Of Fort Laramie W.
have met with cactus and wild sage. The only an.
imals seen have been buffalo, antelope, wolves and
prairie dogs, but we have been fortunate enough to
obtain q bountiful supply Of buffalo and antelope
-Four OF our party were surrounded by some
hundped Of buffalo a few days since. and
were in imminent danger Of being trodlen
to death The meat ] think rather coarse. and in
ferior 10 our home beef The excitement Of n buiTa-
10 hunt with n company Of good fellows is IN itself
worth the journey here The scenery for the past
venty miles has been in some places approaching
the grand; the ancient bluff ruins, ling forth
OF the road Chimney Rock and Capital Hills on
the south side, are worthy the pencil Of an artist.
The weather has been excessively warm until the

Francisco-Sir: was arreseed, yesterday morn
ing. at 81 O'Clock, by detachment of fifteen
soldiers. nnder command of a sergeant. and
thrown into this prison, where / have been
since, without any examination any charge
having been made against me. When i was or
dered by the sergeant to go with him, / asked to
see his warrant, which he refused. saying he was
ordered TO arrest me by the Commandantc, and if
did not Immediately accompany him be would drag
me from my house, at the same time using gross and
insulting language towards myself and family.
when brought into the presence Of the Judge Of
the Court of First Instance, lie said he knew no
thing OF the cause OF my arrest, and that he would
send to the District Judge for orders. In short
time the messenger returned with order from the
District Judge to place in close confinement in a
dirty hole occupied by the lowest criminals and by
peTsons brought in from the streets drunk Sc. The
jailer, however, said he would not take such a re-
sponsibility. and gave me his own name.
know Of no cause why am here. unless it be
that returning from the mountains few days since,
found that the District Judge had advertised an
American steamship, 1.-THE propeller Commodore
Stockholm for sale, she having been illegally
seized by the authorities here; and Immediately
posted notices Warming persons against purchasing

dspossessed of her One Of the notices was torn
down from my own door, and posted another Tho
same man who tore down the first made an attempt
to tear down the second, when, warning him that it
was my property and on my own land, put pistol
to his head, and told him ] would shoot him il he
insisted upon meddling with my property
Some say that was arrested because, not succeed
ing in selling the ship, they wished to get Of

ship was sold.
BE this as it may, no American is safe here; daily
