These Indians, occupied at strong position

‘villages fortified, and defended by upwards of
‘($00 warrriors "well armed with British fusils,’
having in the month ofJunc last made anim-

killed and wounded 23 American citizens,

leaving their ‘surviving associates 900 miles
distant from the inhabited part of the United

rangeof “dreary wilderness presented, imme-
diately embarked for the sceiie of action, with
the disposable force of the 6th iiifaiitry, con-‘
sisting of but 220 officers" and men._ After a
toilsome movement of 45 days, against the

' rapid current of the Missouri. he arrived on

‘the 9lli tilt. before the eiiemy"s villages, _ each
ofwhicli he found to be enclosed with palisides
and ditches. A few days prior ‘to his arrival
he was joined by Gen. Ashley with the rem-
nant of his party, aiiiouiiting to 80 men, and
by Mr. Pilclier with 40 men of the trading
companies, together with near 600 Sioux who
-professed to be friendly. \Vitli these volun-
-teers, aided by lii_s little band ofr'r:gulai's, Col.
Leavenworth soon after his arrival commen-

-_ 'ced his operations against the enemy. In

-approacliiug the villages, with the Siouigin
advance, they were met by the Ricaras a short
distance belowtli'eir works, where a skirmish
ensued, in which the enemy sustained his po-
sition and forced the Sioux back, until the
regular troops,’ aided by Gen. .lsliley’s volun-
teers, arrived and foriued the line of battle-
when the‘ Ricaras were iniiiiediately driven
into their villages. During the evening of
the 9th the boats arrived and the artillery was
disembarked. On the ‘morning of the 10th,
the troops were airangctl in the best manner,
and an attack coiuinenced which‘ resulted in

froui the ti"aders'aud in future conduct tlicm-

to restore the plundered property, and fearing

_ additional punishment, or desirous of-obtain

iiig succor froui the neighboring tribes above

the night of the 12th to desert their villages ;

Our readers will find on the last page of
this paper an article of great interest front the
Christian Spectator. ' It is a Review ofall the
Reports made by the -./1mer2'can Coloiu'zati'on
Society since its -estziblisliinent, and gives a
more complete and interesting view of its rle-

. signs, affairs, and prospects, than any article

heretofore published. Like all the Reviews
in that publication, it islwritten in a cliaste
and elegant style, and cannot fail to excite in
the breasts of all who read it it great degree
of interest and anxiety for the success ofthe
object ofwliicli it ti'eats.- The subject of-col-
onizing the blacks oftliis country on the Afri-
can coast, although still viewed by many‘ peo-
ple in the northern states as a Quixottic en-
ierprize, is daily becoming less probleinatical,
and liotirly finds new l’l"l.(-.‘l‘l(lS‘8lll0llg the re‘-
flecting and pliilantliropic; and we trust it
will continue to overcome all opposition, and
advance with a steadier and more rapid pace
towards the consuinmation of its object, until
it shall form- a new era in the history of our

friend-oftlierights and liberties of man.

But notwithstanding we -are ardent friends‘
of the Colonization Society,and earnestly de-
sire the co-operation ofall hands and all hearts
in the furtlierrmce ofits designs, yet we cati-
not read with complacency any deiiunciatioiis

plying to an article on this subject in aBoston
paper, the editors of the -National Intelligen-
cer hold language which we think little fitted
to couciliate the people ofthe North—tlicy
mtist be convinced oftlieir duty b'y some oth-
er method than sarcastic and illiberal remarks
upon the benevolent objects in which they’ are
alreadyengaged. The following is the arti-
cle here alluded to: '

“ The truth is, we believe the people of the
Middle and SoutliernStates have little to hope
frointlie co-operatioii‘ oftlieir Eastern friends,
in the 'Colonizatioii scheme. A few individ-
uals have sliewu 21 cordial interest in the inat-
ter, and the feelings ofsonie others have been
moineiitarily excited; but we’ fear the cold
and clieerless feeling evinced in the papers of
Boston istoo true an indication o_fthe pulse
of that community on the subject." Thousands
upon thousands of dollars annually are abso-
lutely ‘wasted in vain expensive missions to
cliristianize the’Heathcii, where no one has
ever yet been convertedby the lavish expen-
diture, but not a’ dollar can be spared for the
practical purpose of establishing :1 colony, the
object of which is, first, to discharge a solemn
debt due by the country, and by the eastern as
much as any otlier part ofit, in gradually re-_
storingtlie people of colour to_ the 'co_unti-y of
their ancestry; to lessen the number of an in-
fcrior caste, now becoming toonumerous, in
this country ; and lastly,b'ut not least,to spread

ly than it has ever been‘ spread, by. any one,
operation,if we except the accidentiil_diffusion
‘ofit by the settlement oftliis country. We
confess that the‘ lukcivarmness .of the pious
and zealousCliristi5us of the east towardsthis
object, has filled us with ast,onisliinen_t.” .
Ireland.—Tlié situation of the Irish people
is apparently the least enviable of any in the
world. In addition to the distress occasioned
by their extreme poverty and consequent ex-
posure to starvation, their _cruel masters op-
press tliern by every method they can devise.
Not content with depriving them oftlieir nat
ural rights and liberties, and all that can ren-
der life dear to man, they liaveeven enacted
laws against their most simple anitiseinents.
In late Irish ‘papers it is stated that on a cer-
tain occasion a party collected together for the
purpose of engaging ‘ in the lawless practice
of bowling,’ but were iiiimediately dispersed
by the police. Upon this i_ncident a London
editor rciiiarks: When we read this, we iii-
quired of _a gentleniuii acquainted with that
part ofthe country’ what liorriblc crime this
bowling was. He told us it was simply the
rolling a ball along a road, which is to the
lower Irish "a very favorite amuseiiient. We
then asked liiui how this crime came to be so
decried. He said he supposed it was because
the people were fond of it, for it was quite e-

in that country,'tliat’ it gave pleasure to the
people. Bowling is here said to bcillegal—-
with the exception of working, it is difficult to
‘say what the lower orders may lawfully do.—;-
There is hardly a single amusenient wliicli is
uot‘envied‘tlieui by one description of persons
or other. One set of magistrates set t|iem—
selves against fairs, another against street nin-
sic, another againstlall athletic exercises—ev-
ery thing, in short, in which the poor take
pleasure, is carefully 'prosci'ibed. In such a
state of things can any thing short’ of riot, re-
bellion’, and bloodshed, be expected.

mile; and the. western section from 15 to
320,000 a mile. A-boat fortlie conveyance
