INDIAN ATROCITIES,

Sf. PAUL, Aug. 23.
Parties from Minnesota River reached
here last night. They state scouts estimate
the number of whites already killed by the
Sioux at five hundred. The opinion is
based on the number of bodies discovered
alang the road. It is belieyed ali the mis-
sionsries are killed. The civilized Indians
exceeded their savage brethren in atrQei-
ties.
Mr.. Premier, an interpreter, who has
spent most of his lifea mong the Indians,
volunteered to go alone, trusting to his
knowledge of the Indians and to his dis
guise to escape detection. Dressed in
painted, savage style, he arrived at Upper
Agency Night Place, literally the hahita-
ton Of death, visited all the houses, saw
former occupants lying dead, some on the
door steps, some inside, others scattered in
the yards. He went to the house of Hon.
J. R. Brown, and recognized every men,
Der Of the family, eighteen in all, murder
ed. He visited Beaver Greek, and found
fifty families killed.
Went to every house and recognized bod
les, aud nearly all were former inhabit-
ants. Among the recognized at the agen-
cy, were N. Givens and family, Mr.. Gal
braith and children, Dr. Wakefield and
family, John Todden's family, John and
Edward Mayner and two missionaries,
Rev. Dr. Williamson and Rev. Mr.. Riggs.
Ex-Gov. sibley is now marching to the
relief of Fort Ridgley. He reports the
Sioux bands united in carrying out q con-
certed and desperate scheme, and says they
will only be too happy to find powerful up
per bands of Yanktons aud other IndiaHs
united with them.
Mr. ~Frenter; the disguised interpreter,
with to Gov. Ramsey 21st, and says he
LETT Fort Ridgely at o'clock A. r. There
were then two thousand Indians around
Fort Ridgely, and the wooden buildings
we're burning and thinks that other tribes
are joing the Sioux and present formiCt
able array.
A reliable letter, dated Glencoe, Aug
Slst, says, the injury done by the stampede
of settlers is immense another scene Of
woe can hardly be found in the south, as
in Mcleod, Meeker, Northern Great sibley
and other counties.

FROM RICHMOND.

NEW YORK, Aug. 70.
The Herald has Richmond papers of the
18th and 18th.
The Richmond Examiner, of the 18th
inst, thinks that a great battle was i'm
pending between the rebel army on the
Rapidan and Gen. Pope's forces, at such
time when their Generals were ready, and
not before, and that the battlefield would
be in the vicinity of Culpepper c. H.
The rebel Congress met in Richmond on
the 18th inst, on which occasion JEFF. Da-
Wis submitted his annual message. He
leads of in his usual hypocritioal style,
and then alludes to the Federal Govern
ment as robbers, assassins, &C., sd infni-
tum. He speaks Of and recommends re-
taliatory measures to meet the laws re-
Gently passed by the Federal Government
recommends the issue of more rebel treas
ury shinplasters, and alludes to the build
ing ofrebel war vessels at home and abroad
The message betrays great signs of weak
ness in the rebel government, for no ma.
tion that has power in its hands ever puts
forth such arguments as acquiesced-in mur.
der, rapine, &C., under the name Of retalia.

rhp War und sInrsrr.

EDITORS LEADER; It is cheering to see
that our Government is coming up to the
true method of conducting the war inaug-
urated by its enemies to overthrow it.
Public sentiment is rapidly approaching
the right standpoint. Heretofore the pol
icy has been leniency and forbearance on
our part whilst the traitors have prose-
euted their unholy and unjustifable war
against US with all the savage barbarity
that the uncontrolled wickedness of the
human heart could suggest. Our Govern
ment might as we'll attempt to cOnoiliate a
venomous serpent, or civilize an African
hyena, as to expect gentle treatment will
ooneiliate the savage traitors who are in
arms to overthrow it and our country. is
being fearfully educated to a realizing
sense Of this great truth, namely, that
Cancellation win never do when you are
dealing with murderers and robbers.
The cause Of the war is Slavery, which
the dignity and chivalry of Northern trait
ors will not admit. The prejudice and ig-
norance of many have been so strong
against color that they would not admit
that black man could do good act, and
in Harper's illustrated newspaper is a
fitting representation Of a dignifed and
chivalrio gentleman drowning because he
would not let niger save him. The
spirit of slavery is never satisfied. It
= l..
it tried to bring on war with Spain for
Cuba, and now it grapples with freedom in
our own land, and seeks by system of
murder and rapine that is unparalleled in
the history of the world, to blight and
curse our whole country with its pOlluting
touch. II is the real irrepressible conflict
with free government and the despotism
Of the most abominable system Of wrong
and oppression that ever disgraced human
Ity, and to the loyal people of the North is
referred the great problem Of solving the
question, whether Government founded
upon the great principles of humanity, in
telligence and civilization can be success,
or whether a barbarism and despotism
shall succeed and prevail over all, and
bring in its train all the shocking baTbar-
tiles that have heretofore and to-day char
acterize the Slave Power Of the South.
tn contest shows the denominations, wick
edness and depravity into which the slave
hu.ue,s nave sunk, and the sin has become
50 nationalized that no other agency but
that of the sword could stay its onward
progress. The hand of God is in the war;
it is His purging agency to cleanse out the
sin of Slavery in the land, and He will SO
overrule the conflict that no peace can
come until the evil is destroyed.
Let our loyal and gallant men buckle
on their armor, in the consciousness Of be-
ing Gods warriors to fight the battles Of
the Lord against the heather slaveholding
traitors Of the South.
Let the free men of color, and the down
trodden slaves of these despots, be bid to
come to the conflict: let them be armed
and equipped, and let each Of them be re-
auired to do their share in the great work
Of reformation, which viii grow out Of the
contest. W.

Thirteen hundred guerrillas opposite
Helena, burned thousand bales of cotto4
and committed other depradations within
the past few days. 1t is reported that Gen.
Hindman's army is moving west from Lit
tie Rock. People along the road are going
with the army, taking with them negroes
and movable property, while Hovey's divi-
sion were returning to Helena from Clar-
endon. Four killed and several wounded

Refugees from the South furnish the fol-
lowing regarding Southern movements.
General Bragg at Chattanooga, and next
move seemsito be Nashville: Reports of q

which come almost daily, take what they

pears to be regarded as doubtful ground BY
them, and they make arrangements to stay

W A1hAN0lVNg Auks So
A number Of newspaper correspondents
arrived here TO day from the army Of Vir-
ginia, Their departure thence was invOl-
untary.
Commander VIM. D. Porter, the destroy
er Of the Arkansas, has been made q Com
modore.
It is not known by any of McClellan's
friends here that he intends as reported to
retire from active service in the field.
There is no unusual excitement in Wash
ington. The city is as quiet as it has been
at any period within six months.
Worlds special:
There is little reason to doubt the june
tion Of the army Of the Potomac with the
army Of Virginia, though no official an
nouncement Of the fact has been made.
Private letters have been received which
state that the union has been made, and
there is now little cause for anxiety inre-
gard to military prospects in Virginia.
The movement was an extremely hazard
Gus one, and its successful completion re-
fleets the highest credit on Gen. Halleek
who planned and Gen. Mcclellan who ex-
ecuted it.
Tribune's special;
Baltimoreans say that since the order for
drafting over 5000 citizens of Maryland,
between the ages Of 18 and As, have left
that State for the South and Canada, and
that the exodus is still going on at the rate
of from 800 to 500 daily.
Our Yorktown letter says that when
Gems. Hslleck, Burnside, Mcclellan, and
chief commanders were in council at Har-
risOn's Landing, Gen. Burnside proposed
to bring up his force, make Of the united
armies three columns of $4,000 each, and
march directly upon Richmond. Burnside
was supported by Sumner and one other
chief, and Mcclellan acquiesced, but the
plan was vetoed.

The Surrender OF cIarlssviIIe.

The surrender Of Clarksville, Tenn, BY
Colonel Rodney Mason, of the fist Ohio,
was a piece Of unmitigated, disgraceful

the surrender to be the most disgraceful and
cowardIy of the war. Mason and the rebel
leader Woodward made speeches cOmpli-
menting each other The Cincinnati Com
mereial says;
We have the bitter intelligence that Col
Rodney Mason, Of the 71Bt Ohio Volun-
teers, has completed his esreer Of coward

Of guerrillas, without firing gun. Col.
