The specie increase is due TO the payment by the

their checks and deposited them in bank for safe

HORRIBLE INDIAN MssAcRE!-We are
called upon to record one of the most fiend-
ish, atrocious acts ever perpetrated on the
Northern frontier, in which three children
were brutal!y murdered in cold blood, and
and two others horribly mangled. The
facts in the case, as far as we have been
able TO learn them, are as follows:
A Mrs. Wiseman, whose husband is now
IN the frontier service, left her family of
tive children, the oldest girl about Is, at
home, near st. James, to 60 to Yankton.
on Thursday last. She returned in the
stage on Friday, and on approaching her
residence she saw an Indian hastily disap-
pearing behind the house. She fastened
back to ST. James, before entering the
house, and Immediately returned with six
men, who gained admission to the premi-
ses only to discover to the stricken mother,
the mutlated corpses of two of her chill
dren, and two others who had probably
been left for dead The fifth child was not
in the reom, and a search resulted in the
discovery of the body near the end of the
house. The two surviving children were
alive at last accounts, but gave no satisfac-
tory explanation of the horrible affair. onIv
to declare that "the Indians had been
there.
Lit Col. Pattee Immediately dispatcbed
a messenger to Capt. Trip, ordering an
immediate search for the Offenders We
sincerely trust that these red-deyils NAV
be made to atone in a measure for the deed
by surrender of life.-iSiou1 Csty Journal.

tween Gov. Gamble and Gen. Schofield.-
No more negro hunting and catching by
the military of this State! We breathe
