THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT

which pervades the hearts of St. Louisans,
in favor of protecting the rights of the
citizens of our State. The order of the
Governor was received in this city on Friday
afternoon, and as soon as it was made known
to the different military companies, the
members thereof, as if actuated by one
impulse, proceeded at once, and with the
utmost alacrity, to prepare for the long and
tedious march which they will have to
perform. The work of preparation was no
small undertaking. Supplies of every kind
had to be purchased-overcoats, blankets
and brogans, had to be manufactured, and
horses engaged, in order to constitute the
proper outfit, and the consequence was, that
from Friday night until Saturday night,
every one concerned in preparing the outfit,
was compelled to be exceedingly active.
Nevertheless, everybody entered into the
undertaking with the true spirit-with an
earnestness which is pleasant to observe in
connection with efforts of defence against
uncalled for and unproked outrages.
Notwithstanding the extensive prepra-
lions necessary to be made, nearly every
thing was in state of readiness by Satur-
day night-the number Of men having at
that time been ascertained and suitable
provision made for them. The whole
number of men is about Goethe first
regiment having from 1926 to $50; the
Engineer corps 100; the Dragons IS; and
the Battery.4O.
The hour for their departure was fixed at
ten o'clock yesterday morning, and accord
ingly as early as seven or eight O'Clock the
armories of the different companies were
alive with soldiers and citizens, all very busy,
while there was brisk movement Of bag
gage wagons in the streets, engaged in con-
veying the supplies to the Pacific railroad
depot.
The brigade reached the depot at about
II o'clock. The soldiers shortly after took
seats in the passenger cars, and the car
windows were at once besieged by the
friends and acquaintance of the soldiers,
and parting demonstrations were manifested
on every hand. In some instances the part
ing interviews were quite affecting, and
large numbers of the gentler sex found it
somewhat difficult to restrain their sorrow.
At length the cry of" All aboard !' was
given-the two locomotives attached to the
train gave concerted puff, and the eleven
passenger cars composing the train rolled
away from the depot, amid the enthusiastic
cheers of the multitude. The train stopped
at the Fourteenth street depot, for few
moments. A large crowd Of people had
assembled at that point, and parting inter-
views were again the order until the final
departure of the train, which took place
about one o'clock, amid general and heart
felt enthusiasm.
The train on leaving the Fourteenth
street depot, consisted of twelve passenger
cars, all filled with the military, and eleven
freight cars-the whole drawn by three
locomotives. Three cars contained the ar
tillery, three cars were assigned for the
cevalry horses, two cars for the horses of
the staff officers, and three cars for the COM
missary supplies.

The Portland (Oregon) Advertiser of the
9TH ult. contains the following letter from
G. G. Hascum, who was one of the company
under command of Capt. Dent, sent to
Walla-Walla to aid emigrants:
BEERlNEr RIVER, Oct. 26.
We are homeward bound after success
full tramp. We have been as far as Ouyhee,
and rescued twelve immigrants buried alive.
We can now account for all that were in
the train. Mr.. Myers, brother of the
rescued Myers, started to meet his brother
and family this morning. A supply train
was sent out from the Fort with blankets,
clothing, fresh vegetables, beef and other
necessaries, which will meet them near
Grande Road, about the Sd or 4th inst.
The details are of the most heart rending
character. They were in perfect state of
nudity, having been stripped by the Indians
and left to perish for ten days. They had
subsisted on the bodies of those who had
persisted. Mrs. Chase had ted upon the
dead body Of her husband.
A private letter says, that on the evening
of the 9th of October, an officer, with a
detachment in advance OF the main party,
found, near a small stream, the women and
children naked, and in a state of starvation.
They were greatly emaciated; so much So,
that their bones almost protruded through
the skin. The women and children, on see
ing the rescuers, fell on their knees, and in
the most piteous walls implored for food.
The stout breasts OF the soldiers were soft
ened to most touching emotions Of pity,
which was Immediately followed by threats
of dire revenge toward the redskins. %
receiving the intelligence at the Fort, the
sensation felt was such as humanity alone
can experience.
The conduct Of Maj Stein, the official in
command, was prompt, and every comfort
of the Fort, which could be transported,
was quickly dispatched to the scene of
suffering. The wives of the officers pur-
chased every description of clothing requi-
site for the women and children of the train.
A physician, with medicines, &C., accom-
panied the supply train.

BRAVE BoYs.-A young boy named
Brooks Denny, brother-in-law of w. M.

him pole. This the boys passed to the
lad in the water, who was by this time be-
numbed, and almost ready to let go. After
some trouble he was pulled out. The good
judgment displayed by the boys, no less than
their courage, deserves commentator.

"D1PrHERIA."!This name has been given
to throat distemper that has prevailed tor
q few months past at the East and South,
and proved fatal in many instances. Sore
threats have been very prevalent in St.
Paul-whole families suffering at the same
time, but the disease has been arrested in
most instances with the usual simple rene
diea, although fears were entertained that
it would end in the dreaded "diptheria. !"
We learn, however, that a fatal case oc-
Cured on Sunday, which the physicians
pronounce to have been "diptheria." A
child was taken with what was supposed to
be common sore throat, and died after a
brief illness.

The favorable reports of those afflicted
with pulmonary diseases, who have resided
in Minnesota for year or two past, have
induced others to come cut for the purpose
of spending the winter. The immediate
increase Of appetite and bodily strength, in
some of them, has been most marked. It
is to be regretted that many of them did
not come up earlier-before they had ex-
hausted every other means of recovery
and the disease had become so fully seated.
