Indian Troubles,

We last mentioned that the Chey-
ennes had made q descent upon the
Pswnees, and destroyed tho village
OF the latter, situated about forty
miles West OF this city. The report.
ed fray has since been fully anthem.
ticated. We also gather from
sources entitled to belief, than 90 OF.
tensive alliance has been formed be.
tween the Pawnees, Omahas. Poncss
and Yonckton Sioux, and that a
strong war party, numbering about
5000 OF the best warriors Of those
tribes, are already on the war trail,
with the intention Of making repri
sals upon their mutual enemies, the
Cheyennes. With the exception,
perhaps, OF the massacre OF a few
stragglers from the Cheyennes tribe.
it ia not likely that this expedition
will amount to anything more than
mere predatory excursion, tho tro'
phies o; which will be horses and
scalps. In view Of the almost un-
ceasing annoyance to the settlers in
tho Platte Valley from the petty ras-
calities Of the Pawnees, we could al
most find in our heart the wish that
the present hostile expedition might
have a more sanguinary rcsult--that
a mutual destruction might be Wit
nessed.

The Earthquake at Erxeroum.

A Constantinople correspondent OF
the London Times gives the follow

Erzeroum:
"Erzeroum was well nigh destroy

instant. At half past ten o'clock a.
m., apparently without any warning,
and while people were engaged in
their ordinary pursuits, sshock was
felt, which, in tho space Of fifteen
seconds, destroyed almost every
building Of Importance in the town:
mosques, churches, barracks, pris.
ons, khans, and bazaars are either
heaps OF ruins or in such q state AZ
to make il dangerous to approsch h
them. After the first great commo

occurred up to three o'clock in the
