RANsoNED GIRLs-We clip the following
from the n. Y. World, November 18th
Captain Barlow, of General Sherman's
staff, arrived at ST. Louis on Wednesday
from Fort Dodge, where he saw two white
girls named Doyle, one II and the other IL
years old, who had been ransomed from the
kiowa Indians. The girls say that on the
9th of August last the Indians attacked
their home in Northwestern Texas, and killed
ed scalped, and burned their father. Them
selves, mother, and a sister eight years old
were carried off into captivity, and treated
in the most cruel aud revolving manner. On
arrival at the Indian camp the captives were
knocked senseless with clubs, repeatedly raw
ished by the fends, and were treated in this
manner four or FIVE times every day. On
hearing of their condition, the commanding
officer at Fort Dodge, not having sufficient
force to rescue them, effected their ransom,
and will send them to their friends in Texas
as soon as they recover from their terrible
sutferings While in the Indian camp, the
officer sent to arrange their ransom saw the
captives knocked down three times and vio.
lated.

SOUTH FoRK.-A correspondent of the
COURIER, writing from. this district under dat c
of Nov. 10th, says:
South Fork is Frightening up; prospects
were never more cheering. The Ohio Com
pany are sinking on a fine body of ore six
feet thick, and showing native silver at every
blast The Pacific tunnel was run through
a ledge yesterday which is exceedingly rich
in gold and silver The workmen tried a pan
of the decamposed rock. and the prospect in
free gold was very gratifying. Since the
change in the proprietorship of the Crystal
took place, the east ledge has been tapped at
the depth of forty feet, when, 10 a second
Chicago appears The lode is three feet
thick, with the same massive blocks of solid
mineral as are now found in the celebrated
Chicago. The shaft is being pushed down as
fast as possible under the circumstances
Thus far all the work done goes to prove the
