ANOTHER INDIAN MAssAcRE-Sir Men Killed

Antonio Western Texan, dated the 9Th inst, gives
the following account of another Indian massacre
By one of our citizens, John Crawford, who Just
arrived in our city from Fort Ewell, we learn the
following painful intelligence. On Tuesday last
May 2dsd06overnmentT Train, consisting of fourteen
waconS u about one hundred mules, horses, etc.
left Fort Ewell for FL Paso, and had proceeded
about five eight miles from the Fort, when they
were attacked by about twenty Indians who were
well mounted and armed with bows and arrows
knives, lances and two rifles
At the time OF the attack the wagon MASTER Mr..
Mcintosh, was short distance from the train in
pursuit of horse and unarmed, and there was
only one weapon of defence among the whole train,
and that was an old rifle and unloaded. The In
dams made charge upon them and killed the wa
gon master and scaIped him. and also killed FIVE
others, some few escaped and two are still missing;
they supposed to have been taken prisoners and
now with the Indians and no doubt undergo
the most horrible tortres All the mules and horses
connected with the train, were taken. and the wa
gops destroyed completely with their contents,
amounting in all to some twenty or thirty thousand
dollars.
One of the wounded men from whom our in
forinant gathered the particulars of this horrible
outrage. arrived in camp at II o'clock, A. NJ, two
hours after the massacre The Lieutenant in com
