country. Crops had been destroyed,
houses plundered, and cattle driven off OF
killed. Even the Post Office at Cunning
Creek had been broken up. Arriving at
West Point, Cunning coutny, they were
Ijolned by more men, so that their num-
Der amounted to 50 well armed men,
mostly mounted--the Indians being en-
camped on the other side of the Elk Horn
about four miles distant. The settlers
were panic stricken, and anticipating a
general massacre. Small scouting par
ties Of Indians were seen, apparently
watching the movements of the whites
Here they divided forces, most of them
remaining at West Poiut, and about
twenty. under the command Of ]. w.
Pattison, proceeding up the Elk Horn to
protect the settlers at a little town called
De Witt, some FIVE miles further up
While at De Witt, on the Both, eleven
Indians were observed but a short dis
lance off, and these were enticed into a
house. Pattison and his men laying in
ambush with the intention of taking the
entire party prisoners. On attempting to
execute this maneuver, the Indians seized
their arms and fired upon tie whites,
wounding one of them. The whites re-
turned the fire of the Indians, and an
engagement of a few minutes ensued,
which resulted in the killing of four Indi-
ans-one of their Chiefs among the num-
ber-and the supposed wounding of sew
eral more, when the savages beat a hasty
retreat.
The settlers in that region deemed it
more prudent to 60 down to Fontenelle,
some 40 miles distant, where they still
remain. On the return to Fontenelle of
the war party, dispatches were sent to
this city for assistance, and a portion of
the Omaha Light Artillery Squad imme-
diateIy repaired to Fontenelle. Gen.
Thayera accompanied them and took the
command. Subsequent dispatches have
been sent in for additional aid, and the
balance Of the gun squad and several 9TH
ers went. out with the field piece on Sun
day last.
On Wednesday last, Gov. Black and a
small detachment of Dragons under
Lieut.. Robertson, accompanied by several
volunteers, left for the scene Of difficulty.
A detachment of fifty dragons has also
left Fl. for the same destination
in compliance with the request of Secre-
tary Morton. Yesterday we learned that
Governor Black has been joined by about
40 volunteers from Washington county.
The entire force now in the field must
be not far from $50, mostly mounted,
and of whom sixty or seventy are dra-
goons in the regular service.
We learn that the property destroyed
by the Indians is estimated at $l5,00O.-

History of the PaEnee War.

So many rumors are afoat, so much
e~xaggeration respecting the Indian trou-
bles and their origin In this Territory,
that we deem it necessary to give a con-
else history of the whole affair, which we
have been able to gather from sources
every way reliable.
On the oath of June the Pawnee Indi-
ans, numbering about $500, moved from
their village on the South side Of the
Platte River to the North side of that
stream, preparatory to starting on a buff
falo hunt, expecting to be joined, on the
5th of July, by the Omahas, some dis
lance up the Elkhorn. They encamped
on the West side of the Elkhorn, near
Fontenelle on the 25th Saturday., and
that night and Sunday night made nu-
merous predatory excursions among the
settlers whom they alarmed by their i'm
pudence and rascality. They ~plundered
the dwelling of a Mr.. De Puy to the ex-
tent of more than one hundred dollars
On Monday, about dusk, they committed
the outrage on Mr.. Uriah Thomas, to
which we referred last week. That night
and Tuesday they continued their moles-
tations on the settlers up the Elkhorn,
above the mouth of Logan Creek, killing
and driving off cattle, plundering horses,
threatening families, sc. About this
time some twenty-five men armed at
Fontenelle, and under the command Of
Capt. Pattison, assembled. the Horn for
the purpose of obtaining ponies from the
Indians to remunerate the settlers for
their loss, and to ~endeavor to take a few
prisoners TO hold as hostages for the good
behavior of the. tribe.
The march of these men above Logan
Creek, is described as. over a desolated
