eighteen frcm st. Paul. They have no con-
siderable force, but, nevertheless, excite great
apprehension, and there is danger Of another

They did not approach so near us during
the mid last summer.
Details Of the Indian murders, mentioned
in my dispatch Of the Sd, show they were at.
tended with the usual barbarity. In view OF
these outrages and the increasing excitement,
Adiutant Gen. Malmroos has Issued IN order,
to-aay, calling sixty days volunteers to hunt
Indians. They are to be divided into squads
Ct not less than fire, and arc to operate On
their own hook, each man arn1ing and sub.
ststiDg himself. They receive S1.5O day.
Gen. Malm1oos also offers bounty Of SIS for

cflce.
