Yesterday courier arrived with informa-
ton that band of Indians, supposed to. be the
Sioux, came into the settlement, attacked and
killed several white settlers, wounded others
scalped their victims, plundered the settlement
and retreated. We learn of two men murdered
Mr.. Everest and Mr.. Porter.
The full details and particulars of the out
rage we have not learned. The excitement is
very great at Omaha, men were Fastening to
and fro, with arms and munitions of war in
preparation Of hasty pursuit of the savage
murderers. These outrages were committed
ut the Fontenelle settlement on the Elk Horn,
some 40 miles from this city and to what ex-
tent they have been carried we can only as yet
conjecture. This is doubtless the work of a
band of Sauntee Sioux warriors that recently
crossed the Missouri river somewhere above,
numbering $50.
Medical aid, in the person of DR.. Glover, left
this city in haste last night for the scene Of
death and distress.
What amount of force was raised last night
for the pursuit we are as yet unable to say
but hope there may be enough, with such
leaders as will take the willy and blood thirsty
red skins in their lair, and visit upon them
retributive justice. Council Bluffs Bugle,
3lst ultimo.

@~Dr. Turnipseed, of Tennessee, entered
the medical staff of the Russian army in the
Crimea about fourteen months since, with the
understanding that he was to continue during
the war. But his health declining, he applied
for discharge, which was promptly granted,
and he is about to return to his home in Ten

aBehold, in various throngs tn escribbling crew
In notice, eager pass in long review"
1t would be difficult to classify the other
papers that follow in the wake Of those we
have mentioned-such as the st. CrOir
Umion, Wimoma Argus, and North Westerm
Democrat, for they are about alike deficient
in the small amount of intelligence, educa-
ton, and common ability which ore expect
ed to be displayed by the Editors of little
country papers everywhere As for an en-
unciation of correct principles in any one of
these points, unless distracted from other
sources the mere expectation of such
would be entirely unnatural and absurd
They answer the purpose, to be sure, Of
lauding Mr.. RICE and his acts, and that is
all they are required to do for the present
by their master. We should state, that
Mr.. HorcHKIss, Editor of the latter paper
did, on one occasion, so far depart from the
strict line of his duty as to pen an article
on the Sleepy and vacant impetuosty" of
somebody, perhaps Of the people, for which
high sounding expression which no one has
yet found the meaning of, he was very sum-
marily snubbed in the Mimmesotiam, as well
by his supervisors, and required to hold his
pen from such knotty subjects for the fu-
ture, and, Of course, obeys. The schoolmas-
ter was evidently not abroad when he stu
died grammar and photography. ..
Seriously, it must be embarrassing to Ed
itors to prop and bolster up any one man,
without having some sort of platform
where he can be found Now, who knows
whether Mr.. RICE is Democrat, or q
KNOWN Nothing from what his organs say
about him. The Times has propounded GER
tain queries to him, but he has not deigned
to answer them, simply because he dares
not. The awkward laundering of the jour
mails in his interest, show that they are
afraid to pursue manly open course, lest
it may not be in accordance with the secret
w-Nothing, anti Democratic programme
adopted by the RICE Delegates on the even
ing before the Convention.
Democrats of Minnesota! Will you sub
nit to follow blindly men who dare not ad-
here to your time-honored doctrines? We
feel you will not While you repudate all
connection with al unmitigated trickster
and with the presses and the men who are
striving fer their own selfish purposes, to
effect his election to Congress, you will raj
ly to the support of DAVID OIMsrED, who
has the confidence of the party and Of the
Territory and who is emphatieally the
"noblcst work of God"-an honest man.
You can send him to represent you in the
National Legislature with the certainty that
his conduct, unlike that Of his predecessor,
will never call back blush to the check of
one Of You, because you are a Minneso-
tan.

CcI.. KINNEY.-This adventurer arrived at
San Juan on the 10th ult,, with twenty four
men. Colonel Walker was at Leon, and it is
stated that, having become disguised with the
treachery of his allies, he contemplated joining
the government party. Costa Rica, it seems,
has determined to take hand in the war with
the determination and the means to crush ont
flibusterism entirely.
