INDIAN AFFAIRS.
The Indian tribes upon our frontiers have,
during the past year, manifested a spirit of
INSTRUMENTATION, and at several points have
engaged in open hostillties against the white
settlements in their vicinity
The tribes occupying III. Indian country
South OF Kansas renounceJ their allegiance
to the United States and entered into treaties
with the insurgents. Those who remained
loyal to the United States we're driven from
the country. The Chief OF the Cherokees has
visited this city tor the purpose OF restorlngth
former relations OF the tribe with the United
otates. lie alleges that they were constrained
by superior force to enter into treaties with
the insurgents, and that the United States
neglected to furnish the protection which
their treaty stlpulations required. In the
month OF August last the Sioux Indians in
Minnesota attacked the settlements in their
vicinity with extreme feroeity, killing indis-
tel ~ ,rbaII,' ,ra,,,a1 "a .Lot
no means of defense had been provided 1t
Is estimated that no less than 500 persons
were killed by the Indians and large
amount OF property was destroyed. How
this outbreak was induced Is not definitely
known, and suspicious which may be unjust
need not to be stated Information was re-
eeiyed by the Indian bureau from different
sources about the time the hosLillties were
commenced thar q simultaneous attack was

and the Rocky Mountains. The State OF
Minnesota has suffered great injury from
this Indian war. \ large portion If her
territory has been depopulated and severe
ls-= has been sustained by the destruction OF
property. The people Of that State manifest
much anxiety for the removal Of the tribes
beyond the limits OF the State, as a suaran-
tee against future aos,ilities. The Commits |
