Late advises from Santa Ee state that an
important battle took place on the 2Sth Of
April. twelve miles from Puncha Pass, Up
per Arkansas, between detachment Of
U S. Dragons unler command Of Col.
Foan,leroy, aud party Of about one hun
drea and fifty Euta Indian we rriors. The
Dragons came upon them when they were
all asleep even the sentinels, the hour being
just the hour before daylight, and "a delio-
crate and wsll-d.recied solicy from the rifles
Of the soldiery, sent death, horror and con-
fusion to the siumbering horde OF savaees.
A charge was Immediately ordered, but ere
the sabre could be brought TO bear etfeesu'
ally upon them, those of the indians who
could. ecipi,ately fled and made good their
escape under cover of the surrounding
darkness, leaving forty warriors dead in the
camp"
All the women and children Of the In
dams were sleeping With them in the camp
at the time the above charge was made, ans
though it certainly does not seem to US to be
very chivalrous 10 make them the victims
of an indi.crimina,e massacre, we presume
that savages are not entitled 10 the beneh'
of any of the "ru,es Of civilized warfare"
In another coufic, near the same place
and about the same tine. il was found nee
eesary to set fire to the high grass IN when
the Indians had concealed themselves, by
whch two Children were burned 10 death,
The account says, "the men and officers
engaged in the expedition deserve me
creates, praise for their weil-timed pursuit,
and complete and disastrous defeat OF the
Indians
We do not intend to expose ourselves to
ridicule by expressing any unnecessary sor'
row for the decaying remnants Of the red
men; bu, it is TO be wished, il only for the
sake of appearances, tina. powerful as is the
United States Government, it could man.
age 10 control the tribes within it's borders
in some other way than by burning chill
dren and shooting sleeping women. The
Government, however, seems to act upon
the superstition that it has as good Alright
to exterminate The American savages as

Repeated defeat has manifestly inflicted
on the Banner clique deep and deserved
wounds which seem to get no relief from
their weekly discharges ofdetsmation. In
healthy systems political wounds healspee-
div, but body Ike that of which the Ban
ner is the voice, and which sloughs off such
corruption from the wounds Of a Clique de-
feat, may well be judged to be incurably
diseased. Perhaps, however, these very
wounds which evidently have been and
are SO painful. may be the preservation
of the sufferers iron a worse result, by
giving vent to the foul humors which.
