THREE NEW TERRITORIES.

From the Albany Evening Journal, November l51
Besides the territories which Congress has Or
ganized we have now three others, which, grown
impatient OF waiting, are taking steps to organize
themselves.
Arizona, which has population counted as vet
only by hundreds, has elected a territorial dele
gate and sent him to Washington. A bill was pro-
posed last winter creating a government for this
territory, but it failed to pass 1t will doubtless be
revived this winter, and will probably be adopted
in some shape.
Dacotah is also taking definite FORM Her peo-
pie have completed Independent temporary or
ganlzatlon of the territory, to continue until Con-
gress shall give them the usual form of territorial
government. State officers were appointed, leg
islature convened, laws passed, &c, and the Min
nesota code of 1857 adopted They assign as their
reason for this action that they were left entirely
that the disorganized state of society keeps away
emigration. They point in Justification to the pre-
cedent set them by California and Oregon. Reyo-
lutionary as such procedure would be considered
IN any other country but the United States it is here
an evidence OF the law-loving and law-abdug char
acter OF the people, and guaranty that they are
disposed to maintain order and respect the oblga-
tionS ofcitizenship.
Superior, or Ontonagon, is also moving The
people there have made formal application to the
legislatures of Michigan and Wisconsin, to which
States that region belongs, for permission to form
an independent territory, with view to admission
ultimately State. This must eventually be great
mining and agricultural region, and its peninsular
position between Lake Michigan and Superior
seems to adapt it for commerce, as well as to re.
qure separate political organization. 1t has al
ready population of several thousand.

We mentioned yesterday that Nelson Lee who
was taken by the Camanche Indians in 1856, reach
ea Alpany on thursday. In March, 1856, Mr. Lee
started from Texas for California, with a drove of
mules. MIR. Lee was accompanied by twenty-seyen
white men. About three hundred miles from
Eagle Pass and on the I'd of April, 1885, the little
party from Texas was attacked by two hundred
and fifty Camanche Indians. The battle lasted for
some two hours, and resulted in the victory of the
Indians. Of the twenty-eight white men twenty
four were killed during the engagement. The
other four taken prisoners and Carried To the
camp of the Camanches.
Ihe names OF the four prisoners were William
Aiken, of New Orleans; Thomas Smith. of West
Tennessee; James Howard, of Patriotic, Texas:
ang Ia Nelson Lee, now In Albany, and formerly Of
Jefferson county. Two of the prisoners-Smith
and Howard-were massacred the day after the
battle. Aiken remained in camp some six days
and was then carried off by the Indians What has
become OF him no one knows He has probably
been killed during some war dance. Lees life was
spared because the Indians could not manage n re-
peating watch which he carried The watch saved
his life.
In the Camanche camp Mr. Lee found no less than
70 captured white women, and some 80 or 40 white
cnlldren A day or two after he arrived in camp
they massacred an English woman named Anna
haskln IN most cruel manner. They tied her ma
ked 10 tree and In the presence of her two dauph-
ters, Margaret and Harriet Haskin, inflicted the
most revolving cruelties upon her. Before Mrs
Haskin was finally dispatched. she was tortured
for nearly half day, during which time the Indians

MRS. Haskln and her daughters were captured
while on their way to the Mormon settlements at
Salt Lake. The daughters still remain with the In
dians: Their ages are II and 10. Lee made his es-
cape in the following manner: He was accompany
ing the Chief of the Camanches to a lodge some
miles distant. During the tramp they met a party
of Indians; the Indians gave the Chief skin filled
with liquor. The Chief drank of the spirits and be-
came excited. Arriving at a creek, he dismounted
and stopped down to drink. At this moment Lee
seized his tomahawk split his head open and killed
him instantly: He then took the Chiefs rife,
mounted the Chiefs horse, and put for Mexico
When he reached Mexico he was completely naked
while his feet and legs were so swollen from being
cut by the cactus plant, that he could only do some
eight miles day. The last hundred miles he did
on foot, his horse having died from exhaustion.

The PHILADELPHIA RosINE ASSOCIATION held a
public meeting on Tuesday evening, at Handel
Hayden Hail. the assembly being chiefly ladies.
The following statements taken from the
Press:
For the information of the reader, we NAV state
that the association above named is pre-eminently
female misunderstanding for its humane OBJ
Ject the securing from vice and degradation a
class OF women who have forfeited their claims
to the respect of the vrtuous-to prepare and
and maintain for them an asylum, which by its
system of religious instruction, shall elevate
their moral nature, teach them how to gain an
honest living ''by the work of their own hands,"
and eventually to render them useful members
of the community, the entire management of the
institution being also in the hands of the gentler
sex.
We learn from the annual report read BY the
secretary that more than twO-thrds of the inmat
of the Rosine House have been orphans at an early
age, or left with only parent, whose circum-
stances have been SO depressed that they have had
to struggle under many difficulties 10 obtain the
means OF subsistence, and that the associations of
their poverty have been such that the nobler at
tributes of their nature have been crushed so that
their offspring have grown to maturity devoid of
those elevating influences which happier circum-
stances might have elected.
A stated of young girl now in their
charge, whose father was drunkard, and whose
mother lived in garnet, where she received and
partially lived upon the wages of her daughters
shame
Since the organization of the association eigh-
teen OF the girls in their charge have been respec-
tably married, which number it is said, may be
far exceeded, as many have gone to the country,
where they have no opportunity of learning their
condition and circumstances During the present
year twenty six have gone to situations as domes-
tics, four being located in different branches OF the
family of one of the managers One who has been
under their care for some time has three
hundred dollars in the saving fund, accumulated
by her industry and economy. One case was re-
lated where father formally would not permit
his unfortunate daughter to enter his door, speak
to him, but who in the changes of few years had
been led penitent to the altar of Christian
church, by the hand ofthat daughter reformed. One
who was formerly the mistress of house of i'm
moral character was year more in the Rosine;
some months after she left there, she married and
became church member, and was now engaged in
home mission association herself, laboring for the
reformation of those who were formerly her COM
panions in revelry and dissipation.
Of the five hundred and thirty-one women who
have been under the care of the association, more
than two-thirds were not twenty-five years of age,
and some who numbered from thirteen to
fifteen years had evinced shocking familiarity
with vice.
But the inadequacy of the present quarters for
the demand made upon them was serious barrier
to their usefulness.
