OToE AND Missouri AGEEcY,l
August, 10th, 1861.
DEAR FURNAs:-I arrived here yes
terday and found the Indians had been
back from their hunt about ten days, hav-
ing had a rather exciting, but unsuccess-
full time of it. l learn from Daily &
Shots who accompanied them that the
Pawnees had waited on the Republican
about ten days for the Otoes; they had
exhausted their provisions and were near
ly in a starving condition when the Otoes
came up, and divided their small stock
with them and they resumed their march
in search for Buffalo. The first they saw
was a small herd of about seventy-fve,
all of which they killed, and in two hours
from the time they attacked them they
had the meat and hides all in camp. The
next they found was on the Saline Fork,
where they killed two small herds Of
about one hundred and twenty each; but
found themselves among innumerable
herds with every prospect of killing all
they wanted, when the combined tribes
of Sioux, Kiowas, Chyennes, Arappahoes
~Camanches, attacked the Pawnees with a
very superior force. The Pawnees i'm
mediately called on the Otoes who were
encamped neal by and in full view for
assistance. Notwithstanding the Otoes
had formed an alliance with the Pawnees
for their mutual protection, the Otoes re-
fused to help them. big Soldier" and
a few others pitched in on their own
hook. Big Soldier after exhausting all
his arrows, singled out a Chyenne and
run him seven miles at the utmost speed
of their horse. Daily say it was the
most exciting race he ever saw. The
Otoes Witnessed the fight for about six
hours during which time the Pawnees
sent four or five different messengers to
them begging their a%ssistances. that they
were being cut to pieces by vastly superb
or numbers, that their head Chief and
leading brave were killed. One of the
Otoes who was in the fight reported that
he saw thirty dead Pawnees. The Otoes
had a short Council, the result of which
was that they would strike for home as
fast as they could, consequently they
struck their tents and left while the fight
was still raging. They came by the way
Of Fort Rely, and reached home inseven
days. They reported that the Pawnees
were completely surrounded by from seven
to ten thousand warriors; that there was
no possibility Of their escape, that their
enemies were killing them off at their
leisure, and had expressed their deter
mination not to stop until they had wiped
the last they from e~xistance; and the
Otoes firmly believed that would be their
fate. But last evening a runner from the
Pawnees arrived here and reports that
the Pawnees had extricated themselves
and got away and had come in as far as
the Little Blue destitute of provisions;
they could not go home, without subject
ing themselves to starvation, so they con-
cluded to go back in search of Buffalo
The OtUes are very much disheartend
they have incurred the displeasure of the
Pawnees and there enemies, and it is
doubtful whether they will venture on a
hunt again this season unless protected by
troops. A war party of II to Is Otoes
left last night. The object l could not
learn. Yours, in haste,

FAIRBANKS 1t is a significant fact, which
the public will appreciate, that whenever new scale
are put upon the market, as large numbers have been
from time to time, during the last thirty years, it
seems to be the first and cn1gr aim Of tho makers to
show that they are the same as Fairbauks,' or like
them. or have taken premiums over them, thus recog-
nizing the latter as the standard for excellence, and
showing the strong hold they have upon the public con-
1dence. It is a wsll-knOwn fact that while most Of
these scales have, after more or less trial, passed
mainly out Of use, Fairbanks have gene steadily for
ward, increasing in public favor year after year, and
are now much more generally used than all others, not
only in this country, but wherever American commerce
has been carried. This could not be so if they were not
all that is claimed for them in respect to their dura-
bility. as we'll as convenience and a~ccuracy.-ChiccgO
