The Canadian Rebellion Crushed.

The fight at BatOuLhe, an account Of which
was given in THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE last
week, proved a death blow to the Canadian
rebels. Fifty-One were killed and 173 wounded,
while the loss on the part of the Dominion
troops amounted to killed and IA wounded.
The rebels, however, showed great courage and
no small amount of military skill, and had it
not been for Gen. MiddletOns artillery which
drove the half breeds from their intrench-
ments. the engagement might have had quite
different result. The rebel leader Riel has
surrendered, under Middletons pledge that he
shall be protected until his case has been de-
cided by the Dominion Government. Rel
aiiirms now that he is not the chief instigator
of the outbreak, and that his papers will show
that prominent men in the Dominion of Can
ada are the real authors of the rebellion.
