THE HAWK-EYE


NSErMGior CoNGRsss.-The last Session Of
the present Congress will convene at the Capital
to-day. 1t will probably be one Of the most i'm.
portant sittiugs ever held since the first that met
under our Constitution. Everybody will be aux.
ious to see the Presidents Message, and to hear
what new measures, if any, he deems requisite for
the successful prosecution of the war, and the
maintenance and futsre peace and security Of
the Union. OF these We have aseen no reliable
indications. Whatever he may suggest will
doubtless be well considered, and be worthy o
the candid and cautious Judgment of Congress
ard the people. Never, in the history of any
country, were such tremendous issues demand.

judgment 90 necessary to the present and the fu

President and the people, will prove equal to the
crisis and that al things viii at Last work TO

". UuNhAAs ESQ -DeoT CE: postponed
writing to you until could srrfve at the extent
Of the Indian Uprising in the Territory. The
excitement that prevailed among the settlers for
. week or two, was almost INDISPENSABLE. Con-
sternation seemed to be contagious From one
settlement to another the cry was herslded,
''Prepare: to save yourselves by fight - from
Fort Randall to Sioux City. Farms everywhere
on either hand show the effects Of a frightened
populace; gone pell nell, stampeded. skedaddled.
This was not withousa cause The Indians have
been showing spirit Of INSTRUMENTATION ever
since the latter part Of June last, when the Gov.
eminent paid them their annual bounty. This,
however, was attended to BY dispstcbing some
of the boys of the Fort to the Ager cy, dis
lance Of about Is miles below the Fort. After
the excitement was over-after the dust had set
tied, and the inhabitan came to ask themselves
what had been done, it was ascertained that
there had been some of the whites murdered at
Sioux Falls, come cattle and horses stolen at 9th
er places. Thus ended the second imaginary
Indian War.
Once more things begin to assume an ominous
aspect. Little Crows band have passed through
by Sioux Falls, or source of the James River, up
toward Fort Pierre. Major Psttee has, according
~, fitted up an expedition against the Indians
in that vicinity. We are just now in the receipt
of the intelligence that 8 or Of the white chill
dren taken by the redskins referred to, have been
burned; the women taken aresretained as slaves.
There are some doubts as to the result Of the
expedition. Should the winter set in while on
route, it may be the boys will be glad to get
back without CONCEALED noses and ears. 1t Is
the opinion of your correspondent that Major
Pattee will treat for the captives before com.
mencing hostilities. Then, should they refuse to
give them up, they may look out for their nap
pers. There will not be much fighting done this
winter; but the citizens seem to think We had Is
we'll prepare for the worst next Spring.
The force quartered in this Territory is thought
quite insufficient to keep at bay so formidable .

The election went of with come ruffianism.-
Fraud was practiced to considerable extent
Several Districts we're thrown out on account Of
fraud. The certificate of election was finally
awarded to Jayne, the present Territorial Gov
ernor. Subsequent returns from some of the
upper country place Todd considerably ahead.
There is. however, no political change, as Todd
claims to be conservative Republican.

n The secesh press still continue their
efforts to excite opposition to every measure
adopted to put down the rebels. They do not
seem to understand that the greater the trials
imposed upon loyal people by the rebellion, which
was fostered and encouraged by such men as
they, the more earnest and resolved do the PEG.
pie become in their determination to crush it
utterly out of existence now and forever. Their
clamors produce an effect exactly the opposite
to their wishes. The more they cant, the more
radical they make. the people. We don't know
that We dislike the results very much. tic get
ting pretty evident that strong measures are
necessary to save the Union, and the conspira
tors are aiding the work sgainst their desires.

Q Kaows II ALI! The Chicago Times, in Ia
bored editorial, alleges that the rebels have be-
tween two hundred and City and three hundred
thousand troops concentrated in Virginia! The
Times is 90 positive about thia, that We are
bound to believe it has had special commune
cation from its Southern friends in relation to
the matter. However, we have no idea that its
information is correct They undoubtedly have
large army But that number could be divided
by two, and then probably the estimate would
be large. We expect Gen. Burnside knows, ap-
proximaseIy at least, how large force can be
concentrated against him. When he makes .
move, We feel confident that it will be with such
knowledge as will justify him in doing so, and
with As much certainty of success - can be ex-
pected of the actions of 90 ponderous an army as
his. We have no idea that the huge falsehoods
of the Times will materially modify his purposes
and actions. ara ~ a9T -a
u The Chicago Times don't like the propo.
sition for the Union men Of Louisiana to elect
Members Of Congress! Probably it is fearful
that the Onion men Of that region will not elect
Representatives who will be willing to act with
such fellows - Fernando and Ben. Wood, or be

Southern Union men are likely to be earnest
