From the St Peter Tribune.
As it is now an important thing to as
certain the number of friendly Indians
among the Lower Sioux, it may be we'll to
examine reported number engaged at the
several points Of attack. New Ulm, Fort
Ridgely, Fort Abercrombie, and the entire
range of frontier settlements in Minnesota
were beleagured by fifteen hundred Indi-
ans-to give the lowest estimate. While
these were committing depredations so
horrible that we involuntarily shudder in
their contemplation, the friendly interests
in the whites only cropped but in very
few noble exceptions like Other Day and
Wabashaw. The balance either acted as
participants in the murders which have not
yet been fully discovered or remained indif-
terent spectators to the horrors on our from
tier. We can safely assert that nearly every
one Of the Lower Sioux was informed of
the impending massacre in time to warn
the whites of the horrible danger, but it
was not done, and they were destroyed
without mercy. Had these red beasts
been disposed to protect, they could have
done so by merely sounding the alarm
The people are now urged to be lenient in
the treatment of the friendly Indians, who
have only exhibited the friendship of the
tiger, and because they were not quite
hungry, did not destroy life like their
brethren. What real security is there in
the kind of friendship manifested by the
"good Indians - of Minnesota What as
surance Of safety have we hereafter, or
guaranty that another outbreak will not
occur unless the Indians are either killed
off or removed beyond the Western limits
of the State
The exploits Of Ink-pa-du-ta and Little
Grow have furnished illustrations of the
number and character Of our friendly In
dams which our State cannot afford to fer
get.
The number is too small for any practi-
cal good and the character is certainly not
above suspicion.

We are informed by Mr. McMurray, of
the Hudson Bay Company, who arrived
in the city Tuesday morning, that DIR.
Shultz and his escort, who were repre-
scented as being captured by the Sioux In
dams near Otter Tail City some two weeks
ago, had met him at Grand Forks, sixty
miles this side of Pembina, on their way
to Fort Garry, and stated to him that his
party had not been mOlested in the least,
and that they had no fears but that they
would arrive at Pembina all safe.

New YORK. OCT "a ..ctie Democrat

ant letter w., ,sI by John Van Buren,,
with tie consent of the author:
WASHINGTON. March 8, SCI.
DEAR SIR-Hoping in day or two the
new President will have happily passed
through all personal dangers and find him
self installed an honored successor of the
great Washington, with You as the chief
of his Cabinet, l beg leave to report in
writing what / have before said to you
orally, as a supplement to my printed
views, dated in October last, on the highly
disordered condition OF our so late glorius
and happy nation.
To meet the extraordinary exigencies OF
the times, it seems to- me that | am guilty
of no arrogance in limiting the Presidents
field of selection to one OF the four plans
of procedure subjOined.
First. Throw off the old and assume
the new designation, the Union party :;
adopt the cOnciliatory measures proposed
by Mr. Crittenden, or the peace convention,
and my life upon it, we shall have DO new
case of secession, but on the contrary, an
early return of many, if not all the States
which have already broken off from the
Union.
Without some equally benign measures,
the remaining slaveholding States will
probably join the Montgomery Contedera-
cy in less than sixty days, when this city,
being included in foreign country, would
require permanent garrison OF at least
81, 900 Government troops, to protect the
Government within it.
Second. Collect the duties on foreign
goods outside of the ports Of which this
government has lost the command, or
close such ports 10y act of Congress, and
blockade them.
Third. Conquer the seeded States by
invading armies No doubt this might be
done in two or three years by a young and
able general. A Wolfe, Dessaix, or a
Hocke, with $50, 700 disciplined men, es-
timating third for garrisOns, and a loss
of a yet greater number by skirlnishing,
sieges, battles, and southern fever.
The destruction of life and property on
the other side would be frightful, however
perfect the moral discipline of the inva-
ders
The conquest completed at That enor-
nous waste of human life to the north and
northwest, with at least $3.50, 900, 900 adj
ded thereto, and cui bono? Fifteen dis
satisfied provinces not to be brought in
harmony with their conquerors, at an ex-
pense of all the net duties or tax, and
which it would be possible to extort from
them, followed by a protector or an en-
perOr.
Fourth. Say to the seeded States
Hayward sisters, depart in peace.
In haste, remain very truly yours,
(Signed) WINFIELD SCOTT.

COMMERCIAL.
Chicago. Friday. Oct. 10.

The excitement noted in the leading markt is
during the last three or four days found a fresh
stimulus this morning in a still further advance
in gold to 1855. TWAS as natural that produce
should follow the price of gold-the basis of all
yalues-as that water should find its level; and
as a matter of course VIC have to note an i'm
provement in almost every article offered for
sale on Change. For time, indeed, it seemed
as if all were buyers-so urgent was the de-
mand; but when the afternoon report of gold
Q2714 came in, the market closed weak.

MnITARY.-FOur companies of the 9th
Regiment Iowa Volunteers, under the
command of Colonel J. l. Gilbert, arrived
Monday by the Northern Light, and
marched from the city to Fort Smelling in
the afternoon, and went into quarters there
for the present. A finer looking set of
men could not Reproduced anywhere; and
we only regret that they did not turn their
faces the other way, and march in the d.

A full company of mounted infantry,
under the command of Capt Hackett, of

Fort Ridgley, where they will probably be
stationed for the winter.

E was sent to Madelia, some twenty miles

that there are number of Sioux with

will be sent there as soon as possible. 1t

does not do it, the people will effect it

THE BURNING OF THE WNsLOw HOUSE,.
We noticed briefly, yesterday morning,
the destruction of the Winslow House by
fire. At the first discovery of the fire, the
cupola was in flames, from which it spread
rapidly to the root, and downward along
the stair passages The alarm was given
fifteen minutes before twelve O'Clock.
There were not many persons out, and it
was difficult to procure men enough willing
to work upon the brakes of the engine.
The cistern gave out just about the time
the fire was in fair way of being confined
to the third story but during the delay in
procuring water at some distance off, the
flames obtained the mastery, and further
efforts to save the building were given over.
1t is Estimated that about 81, 500 worth
of furniture was saved. The furniture was
held by Peter Berkey as trustee for a num-
Der of persons who assisted Mr.. Long in
fitting up the Winslow House, year ago,
and the insurance upon the furniture was
in Mr.. Berkey's name
The insurance on the furniture was as
follows:
