The leaders Of the Democratic party pointing the
people TO two reads but they both, according to their
own showing lead to the election Of Lincoln To follow
either is damnation or perdon. The people will there

Bell and Everett-to cut for de woods
We call upon both the Breckinrdsers and the Doug

vote for Bell and Everett, the only who defeat
Lincoln and Haln and the only sure hope of the South

THE SANTA FE NAIL-TROUBLEs WITH THE
INDIANS

INDEPENDENCE, Aug. lathe Santa Fe mail arrived
here to-day. by it have information that the troops
at Matches rancho under command Of Lieut.. Frank had
skirmsh with seventy five Camanche Indians who we're
stealing expedition. Two Of the Indians killed
and several wounded Shortly after this number OF
horses driven off, and other depredations commit
ted 1t deemed prudent, under the circumstances,
send reinforcement to Hatches rancho, and another
engagement is soon looked for
The command Of Major Rufus, the Pecos il is said,
has had battle with the Camanches, but with what
suit is not known.
Everything indicates general Indian war.
The Indians are becoming so bold to attack the
trains.
Mr.. Harper had hundred and thirteen head Of cat
tie of in day light and is left to make his way
in with two yoke Of cattle to the wagon.
Two soldiers followed into the camp the Paw
nee Fork few days ago.
The troops under Major Sedgwick are attempting to
follow the Indians to the best Of their ability but they
are too wary for them.
Bent's Fort at last dates, was threatened. So great
the apprehensons Of attack that the l6 Indian
prisoners recently sent there were released.
Unless the mail parties strengthened, it is feared
they will not get safely through in the future.
