The Indian War.

LEAvESwoRrH, KANSAS, August Son
the lst instant, Capt. Arms, OF the 10th
cavalry, with forty.four men Of the same
regiment, started in pursuit Of band OF
Indian raiders, who had been committing
outrages near Fort Hayes. After hot
pursuit Of forty.fve miles our troops over
took about seventy-fve Indians on the Sa-
bine river, and hot fight ensued, when
the Indians were reinforced by about two
hundred braves, all armed with Spencer
carbines and commanded by two white
men. Capt. Arms was surrounded, but
fought his way out and fell back towards
Fort Hayes, closely pursued by the In
dams for distance Of fifteen miles. Seven
Indians we're killed. Capt. Arms was
wounded in the thigh, and seven Of his
men were also wounded.
After falling back this distance, Capt.
Arms sent to Fort Hayes for reinforce
ments. Forty additional men were sent
him, since which time nothing has been
heard from them.
The Indians are in strong force, and
threaten all the posts on the Smoky Hill
route.
ST.. LOUIS, Aug 6.-Accounts from Fort
Hayes to the Sd instant, state that large
bodies Of Indians appeared near that fort
on that morning, and there is scarcely O
corporals guard of troops in the country
and the Government will have to take
some action or give up the Plains entirely
A sergeant and thirty men who went out
yesterday to reinforce Capt. Arms are still
absent, and much uneasiness is felt about
them.

FLoREScR, August D. Garibaldi has
come TO the conclusion that, considering
all the circumstances, II Is best TO abandon
for the present the movement against
Rome. The volunteers who had begun to
collect from oil parts Of Italy, and who had
already invaded the Papal territory OF
several places, will disperse.
The movement Is only delayed, not aban
doned forever Preparations for another
great movement will be pursued with
activity.
Garibaldi himself expressed his firm be
