“ INDIAN Ou'raAei:.”—Tlie following let-
ter froin one o_four Indian Agents residing in
the country where the late ‘ Indian Outrages’
are said to have taken place, tells a different
story from that given by former accounts :

St. Louis, Sept. §'.8.—You have no doubt
heard much of.the late troubles in our Indian
country, probably exaggerated—and, all of
them overwhelming the poor savages with
‘ anathemas and curses vile,’ and devoted
prayers offered up for their extermination,
without one word of inquiry as to the cause
of the difficulty ; or, without one lisp ofa sus-
picion that the VVhites may have been the ag-
gressors. . The question naturally arises, what
is the cause ofthe present difiicnlties? Situ-
ated asI am; unbiassed by any ofthose caus-
es, which induce many people to wish to put
the poor savages in the wrong, I think I can
give you a pretty correct account of the ori-
gin_ of this unhappy. dispute. I pass over the
many, the very many outrages committed on
tliem, by individuals of otir nation—and, that
tlieyare many, I appeal to every Indian A-
gent whom the government has in the coun-
try ; and come to the case under review mere-
ly stopping to state one little fact which I have
from Major ————, Indian Agent in our vi-
cinity. Two Ipdians had, as_is believed, been
basely murdered by whites, while protecting
some cattle that the whites had taken——the
evidence necessary, according to our laws;
and, on account ofthe bias in their favor,was
not suflicient to indict them for the offence,
and they accordingly escaped unpunished.—
Some time after, a few horses were missing,
and were found in the precincts of these Iii-
dian lodges, and were taken, sans ceremonie.
At an interview that took place some time
after, between the Chief and the Agent above
named,the Chiefputtlie following questions.

‘ My father, how is it that you white men
come and t....e away our horses with impuni-
ty ; the bones ofour brothers and our sons lie
bleaching before the cabins ofthe white men,
crying to us for vengeance, and we can get
no'redress——but if any ofour bad young men
(for we have bad young men as well as you)
trespass on you, we never hear the last of it
until every farthing ofthe loss is paid?’

A party of the Missouri Fur Company as-
cending the Missouri were. accompanied by,
or were in the company of, a party of the Si-
oux Indians who were at war with the Rica-
rees—a few of the former who were at some
distance from the Trading House, fell in with
some of the latter Indians, and were pursued
by them ; when, on approaching the trading
house or camp, or whatever they please to
call the establishment, the Americans fired
on the Ricarees, and killed several, the low-
est account says two. This I assert, without
fear of contradiction, is the origin ofthe af-
fair. General Ashley, proceeding on to his
trading ground, was informed of these cir-
cumstances and rather feared opposition, as
his own letter indicates; and had an inter-
view with them. ‘ They demanded payment
for the bodies of the men ‘killed by the whites
_,\g,-hley replied, that the payment which
they had to expect, in case of opposition on
their part, was from the deck of his boat, or
expressions to that effect, alluding to his
large force.’ The Indians then lulled them
into security, and the result you know. The
few lines qu.rte.d,I have from one of Ashley’s
own men, who gives it as his opinion that 80
oy 340 worth of presents would have preven-
ted all difficulties, and would have healed the
former irritation. But for resenting an inju-
ry done to their tribe, which every nation in
the world would have resented, they are to he.
exterminated—and, the principal witnesses
against them are men whose object it is, as
well as their wish and interest, to drive them
off their lands, totake their game. Let any
one who has seen the men that Ashley and
the Missouri Fur Company have sent into
the country, (I except the leaders) say wheth-
er the Indians ought to bejudged and punish-
ed on their evidence -alone.) _

No, sir, the Indians are a poor, despised,
persecuted race, more sinned against than

anon

s sinning, and unless another Las Cases be rais-

ed by Heaven for their defence, the time is
fast approaching when the place that now
knows them, will know them no more forever.

Robbers beaten by a Bull Dog.—In South.
Reading on -Tuesday eveuinglast, about 8 o'-
clock, two robbers, entered a Shoemaker’s
shop -and stole a bag of Shoes worth 40 or 50
dollars, and made off. They had not proceed-
ed far before the bag was missed, when a
young man, hy the name of Oliver Swain,
mounted his horse, and followed them, accom-
panied by his large Bull Dow. He overtook
them in the wooil<,dark and rainy, and hailed
them, upon which one fled, and the other
kept the road with his booty. Mr. Swain dis-
mounted, and bravely demanded the shoes.——-
The robber refused to give them up, andrMr.
S. commanded his dog to attack him. -.[‘he
faithful animal soon stripped the rogue _of
most of his clothes and a portion of his Skin.
The robber, finding that Mr. S. was alone,
hailed his comrade, saying ‘there is but one-—
come. on and we’ll fix him.’ He then seized
Mr. S. and got him down, but he was set at
liberty by his dog before the other depredator
appeared—and discovering that he was in
danger, he caught the bag of shoes, re-mount-
ed his horse and proceeded homewards, while;
the dog acted as a rear guard. Next morning
the scene ofbattle was inspected, when there
were found most of the villain7s clothesin rags
and stained with blood.—-—.Bo.9ton paper.

Bombardment of Vera C'ruz.—-By an arri-
val at Baltimore, we learn that On the Q-51h
Sept. :2 bombardment was opened upon Vera
Cruz by the Castle of St.Juan de Ulloa,which
was kept up for a fortnight without intermis-
sion. The greatest part ofthe cit)’ had bee"
destroyed bv the shot from the CaStle—and
the liglit-hoiuse at the Castle had been knock-
ed down by the shot from the city. The_in-
habitants were all encamped without the city,
bcyoirdtbe reach of the guns of the Castle.

"TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1323.
“\'lK'l‘UE,Ll}§ER'1‘Y,AND INDEPENDENCE.”

It appears by the papers from dill'erentquar-
ters _tliat the storm of Saturday, the 25th ult."
was very severe throughout the country. At
Salem, Mass. snow fell to the depth often
in_ches, and on the Green Mountains to I8._
At§Albany it was ten inches deep and at Troy
four. At Poughkeepsie it hailed about three
hours. At Newbridge, N. J. a barn was struck
with lightning and entirely consumed. The
owner oftheliarn was killed by the same flash.
A Horse was_also killed. At Weasel, N. J.
another barn was-stru"ck and consumed, and
3 men in it stunned, and 3 horses killed. A
house in Newark was also struck and injured
by the lightning—providentially a young lady
who stood near where it descended escaped un-
liurt. At Brooklyn, L. I. a house and ham
were struck, and the latter, filled with hay and
grain, consuined. At Fire-Place a barn was
struck and consumed, and two hogs, in a pen
4 rods distant, were instantaneously killed.-
At Cherry-Valley the snow fell to the depth
of 12 inches, and for two days every thing as-
sumed the appearance ofwinter.

./ilien Laws.—On the 21st ult. a meeting

was held at Paterson, N. J. by the Aliens re-

siding there, and an address to their fellow

Aliens throughout the Union was adopted, re-

questing their co-operation in eiideavoring to

procure 21 Revision of the Alien Laws of the

U. States, by the next Congress. They say,

in their address, that they conceive the Alien

Laws to be detrimental to the United States,

and injurious to them ; that they are convin-

ced that full participation in the Republic im-

munities is essentially interwoven with the

prosperity of the commonwealth ; and that

these prohatioiiary -laws are opposite to the

liberal institutions ofthe U. States, which at-

tracted theni from trans-atlantic despotism.

They state further, that in consequence of be-

ing unzicquainted with the nature ofthe exist-

ing laws, thousands are unable to comply with

their requisitions ; and therefore they call up-
on their fellow Aliens to give their attention
to this subject, and to solicit the members of
Congress from their respective states to aid in
the furtherance of their views.—-——On the
Slst ult. a meeting of the American citizens
of Paterson was held, to consult on the pro-
priety of uniting with the Aliens in aid of
the above object.

Jlfammoth Beet.—A Beet was yesterday
taken from the garden of Mr. JohnMa|lory of
this town,which measured 9.4 and a lialfiucli-
es in circumference, 9.2 inches in length, and
weighed ten pounds and a half.

The Legislature of New-Jersey convened
at Trenton on the 129th ult. As much has
been said oflate in the papers of that state on
the subject ofimprisoument fordebt,we expect
to see the system abolished by this legislature.

The Sea Gull, Com. Porter, arrived at the
Navy Yard, Vlfashington on the 26th ult.
The IVashington Republican, states that the
gallant Coin. is as well as could be expected
after so severe an attack: the officers and crew
are all in good health.

By a private letter to a gentleman in Phila-
delphia from Havana, dated Oct. 9, we learn
that the latest advices from Key West, brought.
the account of the death ofLieut Rogers, and
two other officers of the Navy, and that sixty
seamen were then down with sickness. Thirty-
three officers had died ofthe fever.--Spec.

It is stated by a vessel at New Haven,
which left Grenada 29th ult. that strong fears
of an insurrection of the Blacks, was appre-
hended: in consequence of which, patroles
were strengthened every night, and all the
troops ordered out every few days.

Considerable dissentions have existed for
some time in NewOrleans between the French
and Americans. The quarrel originated a-
mong the military. At the last accounts how-
ever, the storm was subsiding.

In Petersliurgli (Va.)l00 free blacks are pre-
paring to migrate, under the auspices of the
Africaii Colonization Society, to Cape Meso-
rado, in Africa.

Coin. Horris has relinquished the command
of the naval station at Portsmouth for a seat
at the navy board.

The Grand Jury ofCharleston District has
presented Duelling as one of the greatest
cririies against the peace and welfare of Soci-
ety, and as equally proscribed by the laws of
God and man. It is recommended that the
Constitution ofthe State be so altered as to
disqualify the principal and second from hold-
ing any place of honor, trust, or profit, and
that the representatives from Charleston use
every exertion to obtain a modification of any
article in the Constitution which may prevent
the enactment of efficient laws against so iii-
human a practice as duelling.—Dai. fldv.

Chancelor Kent has removed his family
from Albany to New-York, where it is his in-
tention to make a permanent residence.

Capt. Samuel Hawley, jun. of Bridgeport,
fell overboard from the sloop Mary, on the
22d inst. while on his passage to New-York,
and was drowned. He was in the act of put-
ting on an out side coat, and by attempiug to
throw it over his head he. lost his balance,
pitched into the sea, and was seen no more.

TheSeuate of Chili decreed on the Q5thJune.
that every one whotreads the soil ofthe Re-
public is free, and that all who have been slaves
be absolutely made free.

.19 Pope in .Hinerica.—At the request of a
deputation from South America,tlie late Pope
of Rome appointed Monsignor Muzzi to be
Apostolic Vicar in the new world. He is to
be clothed with extensive powers, and to be a
kind of substitute for the Pope’s own authori-
ty in governing the Church in America. The
holy father ‘ deplores the error of the insur-
gents who conteniii the authority of the moth-
er country,’ biit, ‘desirous not to jeopardize
the eternal salvation of so many christiaiis,’
he has granted their petition for the appoint-
ment of a Patriarch.—Col. Star.

Carolina Slaves.—Tlie Charleston Intelli-
genccr states that there are connected with
the different churches in Charleston, and in
full cornmunion, more than jive thousand slaves
and withthe Circular church alone more than
five hundred; that the broad galleries of the
churches are generally reserved for the accom-
modation of slaves exclusively ; and that a
greater proportion of the slaves in Charleston
are professors of Religion than of the white‘
people in any city in the United States.

Sickness in Oliz'o.—The Columbus, Ohio
Monitor, of the llth inst. estimates that,witli-
in the area of10_0 ‘miles square, having Co-
lumbus for a centre, including the greater
part of 17 counties, and parts of several oth-
ers, with a population of 165,000 P350135, Oh
the first and second weeks ofseptember, more
than one lialfoftlie whole population werein
a greater or less degree SICK; and that at some
period during the months ofJuly, August,and
September, more than four-fifths of the whole
population have suffered either severe or slight
indisposition! . .

The most extravagant imagination can
hardly furnish a picture ofdesolation greater
than the reality. In some places, particular-
ly on Darby plains, whole families have been
lying helpless with sickness. Not one well e-
nough to assist another to wet his feverish lips
with water, and the situation of such a family
has been some time unknown to their less af-
flicted neiglihor,wlio was deeply engaged in
aduiinistering to his own sick family. Nu-
merous are the instances in which the funeral
has been attended by hardly a sufficient unin-
ber to dispose ofthe dead body; and we have
heard of a case where a corpse has retn:iin-
ned more than two days, without the knowl-
edge ofthe death being communicated to any
neighbor, as the family of the deceased were
unable to communicate it. Frequently a pa-
tient could receive no medical aid, so pressed
were the physicians.

The fever of the preceding year has, (per-
haps correctly) been termed bilious. This
year it is nearer typhus. It has generally the
remitting or interinitting character of the for-
mer years. It has proved more fatal in this
immediate neighborhood, since the appear-
ance of frost, though the number ofiiew cases
are fewer, and the sick list is tnuch diminish-
ed by coiivalescence. The same local situa-
tions as formerly, viz: vicinity of streams and
prairies have been the greatest theatre of its
ravages; but, unlike its former operations, it
has not been confined to low marshy grounds
but those high grounds which have been be-
fore generally free, have felt it in a destruct-
ive force. In such places there have been as
greata portion ofdeaths.

A journey through our section presents an
unexampled scene ofdesolation. Houses and
cabins are converted into hospitals! Our for-
ests are unmoved by the axe of the new resi-
dent; and our tillage fields desolated by the
ravages of the destroying angel. The usual
season for sowing seed for next year’s harvest
is past, and very little seed committed to the
clods. This is our prospect of next year’s
crop; and we already hear much less murmur-
iug of abundant stores of grain, which will
not sell. \Ve do not, however, predict what
a year or a day may bring forth; but, from our
present calamii.y,we may freely exclaim, .May
the Lord cut short his work in righteousness .’

A Paris, Kentucky paper, says—‘ Many
years have elapsed since our country general-
ly, has been visited with so disastrous an epi-
demic as the fever which has been for some
time past prevailing. Scarcely a mail arrives
from any part ofour country, but brings us
some account ofthe ravages of death. We
perused a day or two ago, a letter from a gen-
tleman in Delaware, Ohio, to his friend in this
place, which mentions the death of many val-
uahle citizens. He says, ‘ a general gloom
spreads over our town, and sadness is depicted
in the coiintenaiices of all you meet ; and the
attention ofthe few who yet remain in health
is entirely engrossed in performing ollices to
the sick, the dying, and the dead.’

By the Detroit Gazette, we learn that the
troopsand inhabitants of Saginaw have been
severely afflicted with the fever for some time
past, and that the commanding officer had re-
ceived permission to remove with his regiment.
At the last dates however, it was becoming
iuore healthy. The sickness is attributed to
the long and heavy rains which fell in May
and June, and in the beginning of July. By
these unusual rains the Saginaw river was
raised to a considerable height, and in many
places overflowed its banks-—the level lands,
and those that contain thick woods and marsh-
cs, were filled with water, which became stag-
nant anrl unwholesome during the warm sea-
son, and loaded the atmospliere with poison-
ous vapour.

-The sickness at .N'atchc:.—The Natchez
paper of the 27th Sept. states that the fever
had nearly subsided. Out of a population of
3000, about 500 have died. It is supposed
that the disease was produced by the over-
flowing of the river, although some attribute
it to cutting down the streets and levelling the
hills in the city. The editor still considers it
unsafe for the inhabitants to return. There is
(he says) on the Louisiana side of the river
Mississippi a wide extent oflow ground, forty
miles in width, which was entirely covered by
the late flood ; covering many farms ofcotton
and corn, and drowning, it is said, great num-
bers of cattle Vand horses, and leaving vast
quantities of fish in the low swamps. These
swamps have since become perfectly dry ; and
the vegetable and animal piitrefaction must
have generated the miasina which has spread
its deadly influence over tge city. It was re-
marked for about two weeks previous to the
arrival ofthe disease, that there was a contin-
uance of Westerly breezes, which doubtless
ivaftcd over the. poisonous vapours ofthe west-
erly swamps.

[A Natchez paper of Oct. 4th states that
the return of warm weather has caused the fe-
vet to break out anew.)

A mortality has prevailed the past season in
the village of Sueedsboro’, N. Carolina, which
the faculty attribute to the stagnant water in
the Yadkiu Canal. Most of the population
removed from the village.

FRO.-‘ll EUROPE.—By the ar. at New-
York of the packet-ship Canada, Liverpool
papers to the 27th Sept. are rec’d. \Ve have
not room this week for the news in detail-
tlie following is an abstract of the most ini-
portant articles.

The dates from Cadiz are not so late as by
the arrival at Boston. A Madrid article of
the 17th Sept. states that Riego showed him-
self with 4,500 troops before Ballasteros on
the 16th, and that a discharge of musketry
immediately took place, when he demanded
a parley. Ballasteros agreed to an interview,
and stipulated that the troops on both sides
should keep their positions. Every thing ap-
peared arranged, when the escort of Riego
suddenly fell upon that of Ballasteros,disarn1-
ed it, and took the general prisoner. At this

critical moment a French detachment ap-

peared, which rushed upon the ‘corpsof Rie-
go and completely routed it.

A despatch from Count Moliter givespthe
particulars of the capture of two corps ofcoii-
stitutional‘-.troops, one consisting of 700,- and
the other of 400 men, on the 926th ofAug.

Pampeluna was taken on the 15th Sept.-

A private,-letter from the French camp says,
that 0tl.tIlé~‘l 5th the firing commenced, but
was so well answered by the town and citadel
that it was feared the enemy would hold out
long, but on the morning of the 16th their
bombs set fire to the town, which continued
burning till noon. The firing was Rep. up
all day. At.4’ o’clock the citadel hoisted a
‘Vlllle flags at 6 the town did the same, and
both soon after surrendered. That day the
French fired 5000 cannon shots. About 6006
prisoners were taken,who were sent toFraiice
with their faunlies, to return on leave of the
French Government. —
In describing. the attempts which had been
made at iiegociatioii, the French papers as-
sert that the government of Cadiz offered to
give up the King, provided their personal safe-
ty should be guaranteed. The London Wor-
iiiiig Chronicle says—-‘ the firm and energet-
ic manner in which Lord .N'ug'ent has acted
since his arrival in Cadiz, reliectstlie highest
honors on him.’
Ofthe operations in Catalonia, by Mina, a
despatch is said to be published in the Barce-
lona Gazette of Sept 3d, giving an accoum of
a victory over the French,tlie result of which,
says the despatch, ‘ is, that we hindered the
enemy from reconnoitering our camp, and
caused him a loss of 600 killed, 900 wounded,
170 prisoners, and 100 mules loaded with bag-
gage. ‘Our loss not yet ascertained, but I es-
timate it at 250 killed, and S60 weunded.’—
And an extract from a Paris paper of Sept.
Md says—-‘ the preparations for a sortie from
_Barcelona, made on the 8th and 9th, were
immense, and all the men from 18 to 45 had
been put under arms to render all the troops
disposable.’

Paris, Sept. .°Z3.—-There are various rumors
respecting Riego ; one that he has got into
Cadiz, and another that he has been made
a prisoner in the mountains ofRonda. There
is another rumor, (quite inconsistent,) that
the Prince neither can, not will treat with
the Cortes.

Wash2'n_gton., Oct. 30.——VVe understand that
Com. Porter has ordered his broad pendant
