Messrs. BURBANK.
GENTLEMEN Captain Vanderhock has
called in the detachment from Georg
and also all the citizens Id this vicinity. The
Indians are making forays boldly, within a
few miles of the Fort, and we dare not
spare detachment to 60 out and chastise
them. Your train of cattle and merchan.
disc are all safe here also, the men. Mr..
Thompson is on guard to night. The prob
ability is that we shall be attacked within a
few days, unless reinforced. There is r..
NOR here that detachments of soldiers have
lett St. Cloud to assist US. We hope it is
so if not, can and will you send US two
hundred? Every squad will help. We are
short of arms here, and should like some
extra arms brought, if possible.
Breckenridge is cleaned out. We found
three men there butchered. The rest have
come to this post. They loaded one OF your
stages, and attempted to get it across the
river but in their haste they left it, loaded
with merchandise, in the river.
If no troops have started, can't you raise
a company for our assistance? We think
the route clear between this and st. Cloud.
Very truly, your obedient servant,

H. G.. Burbank, Esq.,:
DEAR SIR Owing to Indian dlsturban
ces have our whole train in here for pro-
lection. | received your letter with in
structions to store the treaty goods at
Georgetown, yesterday, at this point. The
train camped the night before at the old
place, three miles this side of Breckin-
ride. l consulted with Bingham, and Cap
tain Smith, and Vanderhock, and they ad.
vised me by all means to cross the train,
and remain until the excitement blew over.
The commander sent down for the de-
tachment stationed at Georgetown, to come
to this place without delay. Mr.. Thomp.
son, who was driving fat cattle to the trea-
ty, received orders from the Commissioners
to drive his cattle here for protection, and
remain until further orders. Yesterday,
large party of Sioux crossed the river at
Breckenridge, and broke in the windows
and doors OF the house, and killed what cat.
tie they wanted. A small party was sent
from here on horseback and rode near there
just at dark. They were attacked, but made
their escape, and came in about nine o'clock.
There is great excitement here, and an at
tack is all the while expected. l cannot
tell how soon shall be able to leave here.
The Captain thinks had better wait until
the companies come up from ST. Cloud, and
he will then send an escort with me to
Georgetown. l shall start down just as
soon as it is safe to proceed. hope my &C.
lions will meet with your views. In regard
to the matter have constantly done what
I thought absolutely necessary for the safe
ty of the train.
Yours &C., PLANE.
Mr.. Lamb was in charge of the train
sent out with goods, cattle, &C., to attend a
treaty to be made with the Chlppewas, by
Indian Commissioner Dole, and the Super~
intendent Thompson.l
ADDITIONAL ITEMS FROM FORT ABERcRoMBIE.
1n addition to the statements brought by
the messengers from Red River, we learn
that after the three men were murdered at
Breckenridge, the Indians demolished every
thing in the house, and rifed and destroyed
the mail bags, which had been brought I'D
on Friday from Fort Garry, and were
awaiting the arrival of the Fort Abercrom.
bic mail on Tuesday.
We learn that the Messrs. Burbank &
20. had two drivers and two teams sta
TONED at Breckenridge; and it is feared the
men were murdered some distance from the
house, 80 that their bodies have not been
discovered.
The settlers at Georgetown had two
ways of escape, provided they left on the
first alarm to go down the river about forty
miles, where they would meet the steam-
boat, and could proceed to Fort Gary; or
to 60 up the river to Fort Abercrombie
under the protection OF our soldiers.
Mr.. Spencer, who kept the house at
Breckenridge, made very narrow escape,
having just got out of sight of the house
with the family when the Indians came up
and murdered the three men, who remained
behind &c defend their property.

HEADQUARTERS INDIAN EXPEDITION,
ST. PETER, Aug. 26 1862, 10 A. N.
His Excellency ALEX. RAMSEY, Governor of
Minnesota, St. Paul:
My DEAR SIR: You can hardly conceive
the panic existing along the valley. [
found Geo people crowded 10 Belle Plaine.
Ia this place, the leading citizens assure me,
there are between three and four thousand
refugees. On the road between New Ulm
and Nankato, there were over two thou.
eand. Mankato also is crowded.
The people here are ID state of panic.
They fear 10 see tie forces leave. Although
we may agree that much OF this dread is
without foundation nevertheless it is pro.
ducing disastrous consequences to the State.
The people will continue to pour down tie
valley, carrying CONSERVATION wherever
they go-their property, in the meantime,
abandoned, and going to ruin.
Now, let ne impress upon you the y ces.
sity Of sending forward the Seventh Reg.
ment, or parts Of Other regiments, to the
number of 1000: let them be distributed
loo at Henderson 200 at St. Peter; 200
at Mankato and the balance at such other
points as Gov. Sibley may designate.
Understand me {: do not expect thes
forces will have any fighting to do; but
they will perform an equally important
work they will alIay unnecessary alarm,
and prevent the depopulation OF the valley.
Another matter let me urge on you. If
you can get the United States Quarter
master, Captain Saunders, to provide for
the support of such of these refugees as are
without means, do go at once. Many of
them will support themselves ; Others citi
zans and friends are helping some, how
ever, may sutfsr, il not assisted.
If The Unite States Quartermaster will
not assume this duty, you should constitute
q special quartermaster in behalf of the
State to DO it. He should have assistants
in each OF the principal towns He should
arrange to have such supplies follow him as
the towns will not furnish. All this should
be done promptly.
Send up the valley all the arms you can
spare. Consign them to leading citizens
who viii hold themselves accountable to
return them.
Pardon these suggestions, but they seem
to be OF the first consequence.
Truly and respectfully yours,
IGNATIUS DONNELLY.
DISPATCH FROM GOVERNOR SIBLEY RE
LATINO THE ABOVE.
TT. PETERS, Aug. 26, 1862.
DEAR SIR: cordially concur in the
suggestions of Governor Donnelly, except
as ! have stated to him. I would prefer
that the 9TH Regiment should take the field
entire. There are hundreds of men who, if
they had arms would defend the villages
against all assaults, and they would prefer
remaining near their homes, to being order
ed into the field. The representations that
Gov. d. has made are not by any means too
strong, indeed the state of things must be
witnessed, to be able to convey the right
impression.
Send the eth Immediately, and arms and
equipments for 1000 mounted men, as soon
as you can. All will be needed to exter-
inmate these vermin before the frost and
prairie fires put stop to operations in the
field.
Yours truly, .
