DAKOTA TERRITORY.


In dlan NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Vengeance Upon
che Redskins-A Chief Wants 60 Get After
the Blue Coats, bat Keeps . safe Dis
sance-A AaA Party Reported Cas- on.
- FoRr BUyoRD, Oct. Is, 1867.
A war party Of Un.ka-pa-pas (sioux) attacked
few Assiniboin Indians last Saturday. They
succeeded in capturing Q squaw, and left two
little children apparently dead, after treating
them in the most cruel and brutal manner. But
the children did not die. One Of them. little girl
about . year old, ssw yesterday; she had
frightful cash over her left eye, but it will not
probably prove fatal wound. The Indians took
her by the heels and dashed her head against the
edge Of . sharp stone. The attack was made just
above the site Of OLD Fort Union.
The Assiniboins tewsar vengeance, and II the
Sioux come here to fight they will probably have
to fight the friendly Indians as well our soldiers
They will not ATTACK this fort, for Colonel Rankin
and his officers are, too vigilant to allow them to
approach very near. They may give as some
trouble and spoil our hunting, but we fear nothing
else. The health, Of this garrison Is remarkably
good.
Since writing. the above, "Setting Bull'' (the
same chief who tried to invest this fort last win
ter, and who 70 sgnally failed, although the Bo-
hemians made,a story out Of his attack worthy Of
the Arabic a Nights'') has made . reconnois-
sance. He sme down upon the "herd" to-day,
and when he saw that he was likely to be
overpowere A he raised white flag and rapidly
retreated I the bluffs. Messengers were sent cut
to him and he replied to the friendly Indians who
were our iessengers that he desired TO come IN to
talk and smoke the calumet but that he was
afraid Of lae soldiers. He then said that he was
going NJ the river to talk with the ''band OF
Canoes and that then he would come back and
have a I ak. He started of. A detachment OF
mounted infantry, under command Of Lieutenant
Colonel Rankin, started In pursuit, but were IN
able to fvertake him.
und frstand that he told the traders at Fort
Union Aat he was willing to shake hands with the
Colone | but that his hand would be az hand OF
clay, fhich would easily come of; that he would
give Z 10 "blue coats'' HE'LL but that he would not
harm tne traders. We are not in the least alarmed.
He " d take good care, as he did to-day, TO keep
out the way of the "blue coats"
Tn mail party from Fort Abercrombie have
just Lrrived. They report an attack on them by
indi ns. One OF them narrowly escaped being
shot Through the arm.
% Assiniboins who were encamped At the
Iii Hle Muddy" above Union, came in to-day in
str ing force and have encamped near this fort.
Tn iy profess to be our allies and from what
ha fe seen Of them think they are 20 to certain
ex tent.
Rumor says that mail party has been cut of
BE- tween this post and Fort Totten Devils Lake,
do not know If the rumor is true or not. Indian
Hrages are always exaggerated.

The Sentinel says we are constantly threat
ening those who have any thing left. with
confiscation and the division of their affects
among the poor whites and blacks" This is
another falsehood from the prolific pen of
our reverend contemporary. We have made
no such threats. There are no provisions in
either of Mr. Stevens bills for confscating
the estates of traitors.
But as the subject of confscation has been
referred to, we will say this: 1t was the
purpose of the President in May, 1865, so
announced to the writer of this in the pres
confscate, for the benefit of "the poor
whites and blacks" the lands of many whom
he knew would apply for pardon under the
$4,000 clause. If the acriter Of this had
urged this policy upon him, ace feel sure it
aeouM haze been carried out. On the contrary,
we begged for mercy. We now regret that
we did So. If the estates of about five hun
dred leading rebels in each insurgent State
had been confscated, and if some eight or
ten of them in each State had been duly
tried and executed for treason, the Southern
States would have been now in the Union
we should have had loyal, unconditional sub
mission to the national authority, and North
Carolina would have been already on the
high road to that prosperity, good fortune,
and happiness which awaits her in the
distance.
What the Congress will do we cannot fore
tell If confscation should be ordered, it
will not be as general as some suppose, and
loyal citizens aoiU be in no danger. But
that it will come, in the end, is as certain as
that the sun will rise tomorrow, unless the
great body of our people rise up and com
pei traitors to retire from all places of honor
and trust in our midst If those leading
men who have ruined our people, had any
real regard for the people or for the country,
or any self-respect, they would retire of their
own accord. If they would do this, the
Union could be restored, confscation could
be prevented, and our people would once
more be prosperous and happy.

Slander on Virginia.

The Wilmington On. CO. Dispatch of Fri
day in commenting on the "Hon." Joseph
Segar's recent statement relative to the Vir-
GINA Legislature and the Constitutional
amendment says:
"The blood of the Virginians is cavalier
blood. Good blood Brave blood The
noble gentlemen of that State hate towards,
and contemn cowardice. Virginia is the
mother of the best, noblest and bravest of
the soldiers and statesmen of the Revolu-
ton; the mother of those men who plucked
the Jewel freedom from the mouth of defeat
and the throat of disaster, when oppression
piled its prosecutions, and threatened patri-
OTIS with the halter. Her sons of to-day are
as brave, love liberty as much, are guided in
their actions by as high sense of honor,
and will be as 10th to degrade themselves, as
their fathers.
We do not hesitate, therefore, to pronounce
the statement of Joseph Segar, calumny on
the noble old Commonwealth, to stigmatise
it as base lie, to spit upon it, to nail the
SANDER to the counter.
Virginia willing to disfranchise her Lee,
her Johnson, her Malone, her thousands of
brave soldiers and able statesmen. Never,
never! Virginia willing to sacrifice her hon
or it must be false.
This man Jos. Segar, certainly deserves no
credit. He deserted the fortunes of his State
in her hour of sorest need. He struck hands
with her enemies while they were red with
the blood of her sons and were pouring in
on her bosom the tide of invasion. Segar,
the renegade, the deserter, the paid agent of
Radicalism, the tool of the men who desola-
ted his State, has no right to speak for the
people of Virginia, and cannot be believed
even when only repeating or pretending to
repeat, their expressions of opinion. Vir-
ginia will never ratify the Howard amend
ment until the reins of government are ia
ken out of the hands of her own noble sons"
So says the Dispatch and the Petersburg
Erpress. All very good. Traitors seem de-
termined to have their own way, but we
shall see what we shall see

Governor Worth's Sentiments

Governor Worth, of North Carolina. dali.
cred an inaugural to the Legislature of tb.t
State on the 22d inst, in which he shows tha tho.
he is tortured by troubled mind. The a.
thing which annoys him is the fact that No
jor General Sickles had forbidden the Conr.,
of North-Carolina ITO execute the IauS
which have " existed with lis for MANY bnn
dred years" Now, these laws, which mo-,
have existed at the farthest, for two hundrs9
and three years, are those which allow NJ
the public whipping of men, women and
children. North Carolina has so lately aa ~
capped from system in which whipping wac
fashionable, that it is with the utmost amazs
ment that her sons hear of any objection +,
such an ancient and venerable punishment
The boldness of the Yankee General who
with his abolition notions"-Da1 SickIo,
as an Abolitionist lis shocking to North,
Carolina taste. He undertakes to interior.
with North-Carolina civilization, and to az.
sumo that his civilization is better than tho
civilization of the old North State Such
an outrage has drawn Governor Worth to
Washington, where be went to protest to the
President against gross violation of the
Constitution. and a disregard of the soyer.
eign laws of an independent State. The
Governor congratulates the Legislature that
he has been successful. The whipping INST
is restored to the grateful feelings of the
North Carolinians, and hereafter, or until
North Carolina shall have become sufficient
ly abolitionized to repeal vile and unchris-
tan system of punishment, the whipping post
is to remain.
But upon the heels of that triumph, comes
threatening misfortune which looks frown-
ingiy; a countenance more in anger than
sorrow. The bill presented to the United
States House of Representatives by MIR.
Stevens, which proposes to abolish the So
called State Government of North Carolina
and rule the people within its boundaries as
those of a territory, shocks Governor Worth
very much. His solemn cause for regret
is, that it should have issued from recreant
North arolinians, untrue to their State.
He denounces the suggestion, and declares
that North Carolina will not submit to it.
1t is hateful, degrading, and all that sort of
thing. Now it does not seem enter the mind
of Governor Worth that North Carolina
having proved intractable when the Consti-
tutional Amendments were proposed, must
naturally expect some other action. Does
he suppose that the people of the United
States, after having conquered these Rebels,
intend to allow them to dictate the terms of
their pardon If he does he is greatly mis-

On several occasions, since Mr.. Holden's
return from Washington, we have heard of
his approaching our honest people, and, after
the usual situations, saying, Now, SIR,
there is a prospect of zoe poor white people
and negroes getting our rights" In mostin-
stances, we are pleased to know, he has met
with cold comfort.-iSentinel.
The above is deliberate lie, and the rev.
erend Editor of the Sentinel knew it to be so
when he penned it. We have used no such
language.
What we say in this paper we say every
where, and that's, the loyal alone shall gouerr,.
We have said nothing about "poor white
people and negroes" We would like to
know where poorer white people can be
found than those decaying aristocrats for
whom the Sentinel assumes to speak. Many
of them are too lazy to work and too proud
to beg. Andrew johnson boosted that he
would "break their social power" and he
has done it. 1t is not our work. We tried
to save them from their present unfortunate
condition, but they pushed US from them,
reviled US, and called us traitor. When the
Sentinel says "aoe poor white people and ne
groes," it means the honest working men and
farmers of small means. 1t attempts to slur
the whites by associating their names with
negroes. Now, these whites who are called
poor, are better off than many whites for
whom the Sentinel speaks; and even these
negroes, when they get their rights, y
will be better off than the Editors of the
Sentinel, for they will vote, while the Editors
will not.
The Sentinel says we have met with cold
comfort" Mistaken again. We have never
been more cheered in our course as public
man than we are now. From all parts of the
State words of encouragement come to US,
in our effort to induce the Congress to give
us permanent government on a loyal basis.
We have no fears for the result. We shall
succeed
