following intelligence, published on the 10th instant

This (Friday) morning. Mr.. Charles A. Hassler,

of an alarming nature concerning recent attacks

Kansas Territory
The number Of Kaw, Usage and Comanche Indians
in that vicinity is about 5000, all warriors. They
have lately removed from the Little Arkansas, where
they have been collecting for some time back for the
purpose, it seems of driving back the settlers from
the frontier. Some interpret the motive to be re-
venge for the hanging of the two Kaws at Council
so as the point of attack is seventy miles dis
tant 1t may, however, be plan to decoy the men
away, SO that the point mentioned will fall an easier
prey Certain it is that the people Of the Grove have
anticipated an attack for some time
On Thursday morning, llth inst, messenger
reached Emporia from the Lower Whitewater, bring
ing Information that engagement had taken place
between the Indians and whites, near the town of
Eldorado. in which one hundred Of the former and
five of the latter were killed.
The same day another messenger arrived from
Chelsea, Is miles above, bringing note from Mr.. N.
s. Stoors, Of that place. stating that the town was
expecting attack. He appealed for assistance, in
order to get his family away. That evening COM
pany of fifty left Emporia expecting to reach there
next morning, distance of so miles.
A man came from Emporia as our informant left,
Friday evening, who stated that he met the company
nearly at their destination, and that no attack had
yet been made upon that place.

nished u.s. Mr.. G. states that the entire number OF
Indians still remaining in the State amounts only to
81, and classes them as follows: IA warriors with
old Sam Jones, who is perfectly helpless from old
age; II women, 8 of whom are quite Old, and ~
children of all descriptions. Mr. G. has repeatedly
seen the Indians during the present summer, and is
fully convinced that the above enumeration is coz
rect They are perfectly friendly, are in rather des-
titute circumstances, and their services be en-
gagged as hunters for very triing consideration.
MIR Crane is of the opinion that they will consent to
emigrate Immediately after the death OF Sam Jones.
They do not reside together, but compose three if

country, all acknowledging Sam Jones as theis
