BISMARCK, D. T., Oct. 21.-The steamer Bach
elor, the last boat to leave Fort, Benton this
year, arrived to-day with the balance of the
mechanics engaged in building Fort Assinni-
boine, one hundred and fifty in numb Der, under
Col. Lee. The Bachelor also had fifty dis
charged soldiers and thirty cabin passengers.
She leaves for Buford tomorrow. A rise in
the river at this season is unusual. The wealth

November. The steamer Rosebud arrived to-
day from Cow Island. The Helena left for he

Island Sunday. This if the latest ever a boat

special train left this evening with the
mechanics. They report a miserable climate
at the new post, and look as though they had
had a tough time of IT. The new fort is
masterpiece of workmanship, and Col. Lee is
entitled to much credit for his engineering
skill.

"The Boom of tho Bumble-Bee.'

Learning that that noted pastoral bard of
the Kinnickinnick, A. J. Cooper, of Milwau-
kee, was paying brief visit to St. Paul, and
that ne was incubating new poem destined
to ootrank the highest flights of Tennyson
or Long fellow, representative of the GIonE
sought him out last evening. He was found
Illuminating In sequestered spot, and inter
rogated as to the character of the
pending parturition. After much
solicitation the distinguished bard was in
duced to repeat the two opening stanzas Of
what is fated to become the greatest of mod
ern pastoral idyls. They are reproduced
here:
There are booms in the air,
.s There are booms on the sea;
The first one is fair,
And the other-let's see
Is not half of the boom

Among all of the booms
That are booming SO loud
Some of them over the fumes
Some of them up in q cloud

IN IMBECILE INDTAY POTTCv

AN IMBECILE INDIAN POLICY.
The people of the country are in danger of
losing all patience with the authorities of the
interior department for the manner in which
they arc controlling or failing to control the
Indians. The terrible massacre of Agent
Meeker and his associates, and the subse-
quent killing of Major Thornburgh caused a
thrill of horror to run throughout the coun-
try. The mangled remains of the victims of
the inhuman barbarity have scarcely vet
been decently inferred by loving hands, and
the women and children captured at White
River agency are still in the hands of the
savages, reserved for death or a fate far
worse. The troops sent to the rescue had
reached the agency and were preparing to
push forward to the rescue of the prisoners
and to inflict summary punishment upon
the miscreants who committed the SLAUGHTER.
when orders came from the secretary of the
interior commanding them to return to their
posts, leaving only nominal guard behind
to guard the property of the government.
and abandoning the women and children to
their fate. The secretary kindly informs the
country that peace commission has been
sent to treat with the red handed murderers
and bring them into subsection.
We do not wonder that, under these cir:
cumstances, Gen. She ridan has allowed his
indignation to get the better of him. and
has denounced such course as weak, worth.
less and cowardly. It is enough to make
men more cool blooded than he boil owe,
with indignation, for we believe that never
before has such conspicuous and pulling i'm.
becility been manifested by any government
on the face Of the globe. Here was a mas
sacre entirely unprovoked, blood-ourdline in
its atrocity, and terrible in its results. The
perpetrators deserved no quarter, no CON-
passion. They should have been treated
as ravenous wild beasts and hunted down
till they were exterminated from the face
OF the earth. But before blow has been
struck the troops that were sent in such hot
haste to the rescue have been called of. and
little band of three score men left to occu-
Ply the country against horde of nearly two
thousand savage warriors, while a score of
defenseless women and children are held for
torture and perhaps for death. Meanwhile

dull. Private cables were lower and New York

free sellers at advanced quotations. The M r
ket closed at $l.2lI for November and 81 .23k
for December, but sold ON the curbstone after
the board at s1.2o4 to s1.2271. Rumors of
war between England and Russia is all that
keeps up prices and the war is chiefly carried
on in the minds eye of the Chicago scalner in
provisions, packers and sellers and speculative
buyers. The corn corner remains without new
development. Unless there are renewed war
rumors wheat is likely to sell considerably low

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
