We learn from Major Gilpin, member of
the firm of Labarge, Hardness & Co., who
have recently established extensive stores on
the Upper Missouri to supply the wants Of the
miners thronging to Salmon river or neighbor-
ing mines, that in his recent trip down the
Missouri river in Mackinaw boat, in COM
PAW with some dozen others, about one hun-
dred and fifty miles above Fort Pierre, they
encountered large band of Sauntee Indians
camped upon both sides of the river. who fired
upon him and compelled him to land. The
Indians boosted of being from the Minnesota
river and as having killed very many whites
there, and that they intended to make short

and the judicious distribution Of nearly all his
provisions among them, together with the en-
treaties of his wife to spare them. or her
threats that her tribe would avenge her hus

suspense they were allowed to proceed. They

found one yonng lady, about eighteen years

and could be purchased or would be ezchapg
ed for ponies. The entire party were grieved
at their weakness and inability to release the
prisoners from their horrible bondage, but
knew that it would be worse than folly to at.
tempt it, they could only comfort them by as,
suring them that they would use every exer-
ton TO urge forward an expedition Of sufficient
strength to release them from captivity and
capture the Indians. r.
This probably settles the question as to the
Whereabouts of those Indians who have escsp-
ed from Col. Sibley.
An expedition, consisting of one company
of infanary belonging to the 41st Iowa, under
Capt Mahanns, and Co. A, Dskots Cavalry
are under marching orders for Fort Pierre. =
Whether this movement is intended as against
the Indians, or for other purposes, We cannot
tell, but should judge it was mesgre force
to start with, if it was Indians they were after.

Tar ADVANCE IN rR4 PaIcR OF PETROLEUM
Refined petroleum has gone up recently from
.ix,y-eght cents per gallon to one dollar and ten
cents. Some OF the journals attribute this rise
to the lessened product of oil at the wells, and
saw the supply lie failing. This, however, is not
the true reason. The cause is scarcity, but !
scarcity arising from suspension of the business
refining. In June the most Of the re6ners stop.
ned work, under the fear that the Government
tax would ruin the business. After three months
of suspension, work was resumed BY some of
the refners, but bad roads to the oil wells made
the getting out of crude oil slow process
Meanwhile the stock in market has been greatly
reduced by consumption and foreign shipments.
Many of the most extensive re6ners have orders
on hand for oil they can make in month, and
the prospect is that high prices viii rule for q

Our sister States, though moving fully up to

Indiana has met the crisis alone, and we
trust has so met it that the peril has been
stayed till the vast legions of Ohio and
Illinois can be hurried TO her aid. In less
than a week a continuous stream Of men will
begin pouring from those great and noble
States into Kentucky, and then the tide of
war will roll back to the rebel territory,
