Mr. BuchaHaD.s ReiigjOus yievs

The following letter will be read with equal interest by the friends and opponents of NIT. Buchanan, It was written by we'll known clergyman in Philadelphia in reply to a note of inquiry from New York:
 Philadelphia, Nov 8, 1856.
 REV. and DEAR SIR-Your note of inquiry was duly received, and take pleasure in sav- Ing that you were correctly informed as to my acquaintance with Mir. Buchanan, the Pres- dent elect, and of my favorable opinion of his moral and religious character.
 became personally acquainted with him in the spring of 1S42, in the city of Washington. at which time he was 1 think, member of the United States Senate; and when introduced to him, found him with Bible in his hand and our hrst conversation was with reference 10 the Dlvlne authenticity of that Book, in which he most unequivocaly expressed his firm belief he not knowing me to be clergyman At sbe time.
 My much loved father now deceased. who knew Mir. Buchanan most intimately for many years, and who was associated with him in the 21th Congress, always spoke of him as man of the strctest Christian morality, and cherished for him an undying affection.
 Mir. Buchanan is of Presbyterian ancestry. and l am informed that he has pew in each of the Presbyterian churches in Lancaster though believe that he generally attends the Second Church of which the Rev. Alfred Ne. win, D. D., is the pastor, and is said to be very regular and devout in public worship. and be-. ing very catholic in spirit, he is accustomed to worship with Christians of other denominations when opportunity offers.
 have been informed bv one of the settled ministers Of Lancaster, that MT. Buchanan is believed, by those who know him best to he Christan-that he has an hour each day set apart for the study of the Scriptures and devo- tlon-that he makes "Jay's Morning and Evening Exercises" his daily companion, and that 1t Is a matter of wonder and regret with many of his intimate friends that he, like too many Of our public men, has so long neglected to unite with the church by public profession of his faith in Christ. In conversations which l have had with him, he more than once ex- pressed, with great tenderness and feeling, his desire for retirement from the duties and cares of public life-the importance of a due prepara- tion for his last and final account, and his un. wavering confidence in the gracious and oyer ruling Providence of Almighty God That he may have all interest in the prayers of the pious, and that his administration may be just what might be expected from his unstained moral character, his great experience and uni- versally acknowledged statesmanship, should be the earnest desire of every patriotic heart
 have thus promptly answered your inau- ries, and frankly communicated what know and believe concerning our chief magistrate elect and feel entirely justified in so doing be- cause of the very natural and reasonable anxiety so generally felt concerning the moral and re. lisious principles of one called to fill station of such prominence and influence

From the St. Paul Minesota) Herald, Dee. 4. Horrible Indian Outrase-A Chippewa
 Indian Earned by the Sioux.

By the arrival of gentleman in this city ves- terday, we are in possession of the details of terrible outrage, committed by the Sioux Indi. ans, near Glencoe, on Sunday, the 23l ult.
 A party of Sioux Indians captured, few days previous to the 23d, near Glencoe, Chippewa Indian. The Indians, in council, determined, after retaining the Chippewa in their possession several days, to burn him. Accordingly, on Sunday, November 23, the Siouxs numbering some seven hundred warriors, took the Chippe- wa to point on Buffalo Creek, near Glencoe, and there burned him to death
 Our informant derived his information from teamster, who was passing near the spot se- lected for the terrible outrage with wagon loaded with dry goods All efforts made by him to save the Chippewa were futile He re- presents that the Chippewa met all the horrid tortures inflicted on him by the Sioux with the greatest indifference. He was burnt at q. slow fire, and fingered several hours before he ex- plred When the teamster passed, the I.dian was tied to stake, and the slow fire by which he was destroyed Lad but partially consumed hls feet and ankles. While tied to the stake, the Indian was scalped and otherwise muti- lated
 It is supposed this outrage was committed by the Sioux in revenge for the horrible murder of Dakota women, in the fall, near Lac Qui Parie.
