SSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES
Gone on the War Path.

CHICAGO, Sept. GA special dispatch
from Ottawa, Ont, published here this
morning says: Word hss been received by
the department Of mounted police from the
Crow Creek Agency, n. w. Territory, that
the Blood Indians from that reservation
have gone on the war path and are devasta.
ting about there in revenge for the killing
OF six of their band recently by the eros.
ventres. They left their reservation, so the
report states, Monday morning after o war
dance, and went south to Hudson, n. w. T.
where they came on small settlement OF
whites, some sixteen in number, of whom
ten were women and children. These were
all killed and scalped, the besieging party
carrying off the scalps as trophies on poles.
They then continued on their way toward
The Grosventres settlement Along their
tracks were many farm houses Of settlers.
These We're all laid in ashes, and the inhab-
ilants killed aud scalped. Not less than
one hundred whites have 90 far fallen vic.
tins TO the reddevils' knives. Among those
killed are two Roman Catholic missionaries
at the Crow Foot Agency, whose bodies are
said to have been terribly mutilated The
whites at the reservation including the In.
dian agent have been killed. After leaving
The agency about so miles toward the Amer.
lean border the Crow Feet met with about
60 Grosvcntres and desperate fight ensued
/ The killed and wounded on each side cannot
be estimated correctly, but it is believed the
Crow Feet lost nine killed and thirty wound.
ed while over fifty fell belonging to the
; Grcsventres tribe. One hundred and fifty
ponies were captured by the attacking party
as we'll as large amount of clothing and
ammunition. 1t is estimated by the De.
partment that at least sos 900 wurth OF pro
perry belonging to settlers has been burned
aud otherwise destroyed, while the loss Of
life canot be accurately calculated. Two
detachments Of mounted police have been
ordered to put down the rising, but it is ex.
pccted that the whole force, some 1900 men
will be necessary, as the Rockies and Can
ada Sioux will join in the uprising. Grow
Foot, the chief Of the rebe!lious tribe, is now
On his way here, aGd comet therefore, be
expected to use his influence to put down
the rising. The Hon. p. A. Carren, mimic.
ter of militia will call out n force of OF least
1000 infantry and cavalry to go to the scene
ofthe trouble ard assist the mounted police.
IN the meantime until they reach the scene
hundreds Of lives may be sacrificed and any
amount of property destroyed. A general
rieing of the Indians is feared.

An Interesting SI.it.

Judge Paul. in the United States Conrt for the
Western Circuit of Virginia, las given au opin-
ion in M interesting case involving the right Of
q slave before the war to own property. and the
parties to the case were Woodland and wife, OF
Baltimore, aud Newhail's administrator Mrs.
Woodland, nee Lizzie Lem, colorcd, Of Baltimore
was the daughter of Paulina lshell slave woman
of Amherst comfy. Tho latter had accumulated
considerable property during hcr slavery, aud
placed it in the hands Of NcwhalI to purch sc her
freedom and that Of her child. As Paulna de-
sired to remain in Virginia, Newhall agreed To
stand in tho place of master to her aud at the
same time to give her all the privileges Of & free
person under the laws OF Virginia. Pauliua re-
forwards accumulated 81 900 and placed it in
tho hands OF NcwhalI 70 buy her homo. New
hall bought FOR hor p house and lot, but, on cX-
animation, tho title to tho same appeared dcfcc.
tive and the purchase was annulled. Panlina az
forwards died. and when Ncwhall made his will
March 20, 1865, and soou after died, he be-
qucathcd his entire estate to his two ncpEsYs
Sublitts and Il: the Same time no executed q
writing directing them 10 pay Lizzie Penn. Pau
lna's child 1000 in gold value tho amount he
owed her mother. The money, it WAS claimed
was mover so paid, and the suit was to recover it.
The defence offered four points of objection.
First, the statute of limitations, which was over
ruled. Second, adiuIicda, which was also
ovcIruied. Third that at the time of the writ
ings of Ncwhsll, March 30, 1864 Penn WAS q
slave and could not hold property; overrulcd.
Fourth, that there was no trust In finally rul.
ing the court held that there was only a moral
and not legal obligation resting tho Subli;ts,
which could not DO enforced in equity, and the
bill must therefore bo dismissed. The Judge also
decided point in this case which is of much
general interest and Importance, and that is as TO
when slavery finally ceased to exs. in Virginia.
His decree was that April :, 1864 the time when
the Alcxandr Underwood State constitution was
adopted, was the date on which slavery in Vir-
ginia passed AWAY
