THE CLOSE OF THE INDIAN WAn.
VIC print in this issue athriling descrip-
ton Of the three battles fought by General
6ibley's troops with the mcrciless Sioux
Indians, who committed the fightful afro
cities last summer in Minnesota. The ex-
pedition has been entirely successful. The
gallant hontiersmcn have penetrated a
country scorched by the sun and suffering
with unusual drought, Tor the distance Of
six hundred miles, and fought and beaten
the sayages in three pitched battles. A
swift and terrible revenge for the inhu1nan
butcheries pe1petrated upon defenceless
women and children, has at last ove1taken
these Indian Thugs. Their leader, who
planned the onslaught, has been slain.
Hundreds have fallen victims to the uner-
ring rifles Of the border hunters, and those
who have escaped death upon the battle
field must perish from starvation during
the coming winter. There will be little
pity manifested in their behalf The days
Of romantic sympathy for the "poor In
dim" have ended. determination is the
only cure for such savage flends as the
Sioux butchers, who disemboweled infants,
and mailing women to trees, set fire to
them. Thanks to the gallant 6iblcy and
his expedition, the settlers Of Minnesota
may now rest securely, and the broad and
fertile plains Of that promising young State
be once more opcned to the cmirr1ut,

But as the case had been brought up before
the meeting By some Of the strictest Friends,
It became necessary to give 1t the strictest
consideration, and the members Of the COM
natttcc were duly proposed. The first rose
with great digaity, and, with that fnimitable
serenity which always charactcrize the pro.
ceedlngs Of the Quakers, requested to be ex-
cused, on the ground that he could not con-
sctentiously ecrve In that capacity, since, very

Another member desired to be excused on
the ground that two Of his Sons had not only
Joined the army, but were already in the field.

some moments without speaking. He was q
