THE CHEROKEE INDIANS.

81. Louis, October 6, 1s6l.-News has reached
here that, about two weeks ago, John Ross,
Chief of the Cherokee nation, had called, by
proclamation, 5000 Cherokees around him, and
declared for the Union.
Read, an influential halfbreed, and leader of
the rebel party, had raised the standard of re.
volt, and had skirmish near Talequah, with
Ross's body-guard, In which the latter was vic.
torious. This conflicts with the recently-pub.
lshed accounts from the Cherokee nation, but

quainted with matters In the Southwest, pro.

Potomac. A constant fight was kept up
for some two hours, when three companies
of the Sd Wisconsin crossed the river, form
ed into line and drove the enemy back and
succeeded in capturing one of their heavy
guns. They were, however, compelled %
retreat which they did in good order to the
river. Here they were reinforced by three
other companies and they then with Colonel
Geery ac their head, marched upon the
enemy and after hard fighting drove them
from their position and recsptured thirty
two FOUNDER columbiad. Our forces
had bat three pieces of artillery and these
were fred from this side of the river until
! the enemy retreated. The enemy had seven
pices of artillery and 500 cavalry, together
with their infantry, and was completely
routed and driven back some three miles
Our loss In killed and wounded is not ovel
seven, while that of the enemy is at leas
100. Col. Ashby, who was at the head o.
the enemy, is among the rebels killed.
