GENERAL ADVANCE TO BE MADE.
QUAPPELLE, April As soon as sufic-
lent troops arrive TO make decisive move
ment a general advance will be made from
this point which has Seen constituted the
second base of operations. This is expected
to take place the latter part Of next week
and the advance will he in two divisions,
one from here and the other from Swift
Current, by river, and will be so ordered to
move as to prevent the rebels leaving the
country. The troops are in excellent health
and spirits, and the transportation service is
perfect.
The whereabouts of the detachment under
Colonel Irvine and Major Crozier, which left
Fort Carleton some days ago, is still I'M
known. 1t is believed that the scouts sent
out to Humboldt or Battleford from Prince
Albert have been captured or killed by the
enemy.
Riel is at Batouche Crossing with 1900
half-breeds and roo Indians, all bent ON
fighting. Riel has told the settlers at Prince
Albert that he will not modest them, but
will take whatever stock and supplies as are
needed for his men when wanted.
A telegram from Calgary says the mails
have arrived from Edmonton with news up
to the 27th on time, and gives assurance of
the loyalty of the Indians around Edmon-
ton.
The wire to Battleford was cut Thursday
night and things look very bad there. The
list of men killed in the raid on Battleford
was as follows: James Payne, George APP
plegraph and G. Link, all instructors;
Barney Fremont, ranchman. A man
named Blondin arrived at Quappelle Thurs
day from Humboldt, he had freight taken
from him by the rebels, who gave him an
order signed by Alexander Fisher, Lieuten-
AM Governor of Saskatchewan, and by
Gourveny, Secretary
All of the Nineteth battalion and the
balance of the Winnipeg field battery have
arrived at Quappelle. 1t is said that Riel
has telegraph operator with him and has
been tapping the wires so as to keep posted
on the Governments intentions and the
movements of the troops.
A prominent business man named Rich
ards, who spent three years in Battleford
states that the StOney and Cree Indians
of Eagle Hills number over 800, and that
the only danger of bloodshed arises from
the fact that discomfort on the part of the
abOrigines is excited by starvation rather
than by any sympathy with the aim of the
half-breeds As to whatled to the disappear
ance of the Indians after the outbreak and
to the destruction of property Richards
inclineS to the belief they have merely with
drawn temporarily to effect a junction with
the Fort Pitt Indians and will then return to
storm the barracks
QUEBEC, April 4.-The court of review
no. 10 on iO111 MT of
dangerous pretension on the part of the
ecclesiastical authorities. The case was that
of one Francis HeureuX, whose second mar
riage with widow named Pagan had been
enthusiastically annulled OIL the ground of
spiritual affinity from which an Episcopal
dispensaton had not been obtained
Heureux applied tossa civil court to confirm
his annulment, but the court decided in
favor of the wife, ruling that the civil code
did not recognize such cause of nullity as
spiritual infinty The court of review con-
firms this decision.
BUFFALO, N. Y, April A Canadian
half-breed, supposed to be an emissary OF
Rel, who states that he just came from the
Northwest arrived in this city yesterday.
In answer to questions he stated that he left
Rel about ten days ago and that the rebel
lion was a serious one. There will be
music up there he said. 'Om people are
aroused and mean fight if we don't get the
same rights the Scotch settlers get. This
rebellion will be serious one" All efforts
to draw from the stranger the object of his
visit to Buffalo were without avail and his
name was not learned. 1t strongly surmised
from hints thrown out in other directions
that he is an emissary for Riel, sent here for
assistance from the Irish Revolutionary
Brotherhood or others for the rebel cause i'll
the Northwest.
