The Indluu War—liout of the Rod Skins, Four Kkarnky, N. T m >Iov. 7, 1865. In cmiHiduralion of tbo inlo.ust foil by your render* in tho Indian war now on tho Plain, I have collected tho facts re lating t«> an expedition that has just re turned from pursuit aud siMncle upon a bund <•! L’heyonnos wlm had crossed tho Platte and attacked and destroyed a I rain on Sunday, tho *2V*lh October, at Alkali Station. (Ion. Ilealli, in command of the Sub-District, was on hi* way up thi* road attending In its proper protection, when lie was informed of the depredation, lie telegraphed to Capt. Kmmio, of the 1st Nebraska, stationed near Alkali, to follow and attack at once, and he would follow in supporting dietunco with all tho force ho could raise, ('apt. Krumie, wilii 66 men, took their trail ntonee, ami overtook them on the 30th on the White Mnn’sfork of the Kepubiican, in camp, lienttnekod ami drove thorn out, taking all their camp mate. ial, und killing and woundincj from thirty to thirty live. The Indiana re treated to the bill* ami bluff*, and con* timn d to sUirinifh at fafo distance for sov- oral licura. Thinking that they were skirmishing for time to receive reinlorcemeiit*, and bo- in^ unable to reach them, scattered us they were, Captain Krumie fell Imek for support on llencral Heath, who was cam* inpf up witli one hundred and twenty-live men and ofUcern. Tbo General, alior rest-* ing men ana unimaln, pushed rapidly for ward on the trail of the rod skins, who were rotreatine: down the White Man fork. The trail was followed down the *troain for thir y miles without finding tbo Indians. Tho next day, the 1st of November, tho command pushed forward at daylight, tho trail leading south into the mountains of that stream for twenty miles, when the (•Vnoral became convinced that the In dians iVoro scattering to deceive him and load him away Irom the true point. Ho therefore struck for the hills of the Stink ing Water, crossing it with difficulty four tiRio*, and camping below its mouth.— Here lie found evidences of a large force, and in camping look every precaution to receive them as became a gentleman ol bis rank, if they chose to call upon him. ('are was exercised in chocsing the ground for cutup, und throwing out skirmishers, »fcc. About ton o’clock in tho night of tho full moon they came, between throe anu four thousand, att eking on all pules, thinking to surround and destroy the whole command. The men were in line at a moment’s notice, and iti thirty min utes they had repulsed the attack, killing twen’y of the rial devils and sending tho others away in something of a hurry.— Pursuit was instantly made, but owing to the mountainous character of the country, and it being night, the Indians had no difiiculty in evading it. Upon the appear ance of daylight it was found that they had availed themselves of the time to got beyond roach. The whole command had boon without rations or forage for nearly two days, and it Was thought best to re trace their steps to the Platte, which was done without loss, except that of a f. horses. Tho men and animals were com pletely exhausted, many of thoin having frozen foot, hands, ears nr no*os. Thi* is tho first expedition south of th Platte which has succeeded in overtaking and lighting Indians since tho commence ment of this Indian war. Tho result i? most satisfactory, a* they wore *c punished in both fights. It i- th creditable to Gen. Heath, his oflieer* und men, H' the wholo expedition was accom plished in viie most terrible weather that is ever experienced on these Plains. Substantial evidoncts of the complete defeat of tho savages in both engagements is had in the capture of their camp plun der, many of their arms, &c. It is not feared that this band will re turn very soon, no doubt thinking that it Is healthier down South, where limy buy them olf instesd of lighting them oil’, it | must bo noticed that these are part of the Cheyennes that were at tbo same time ! making treaties with 1 ndian Commission* : era on the Arkansas. It is to bo Imped • th ut the country ha- found an Indian fighter at lu^t in li. pm*-, n <<t Him. Heath. He has the complete confidence of all who i know him. I 1 will vrltoyouof anything of interest that may occur in this region. 11. From the Newnan Harald. Captain Sloan’s Speech to the Freed- men. Early on tho morning of Saturday last crowd* of freedraon could be seen wend ing their way from every point of tho compass to Newnan. This statoof things continued until midday, by which time the square and streets wore filled with all ago* and sexes of the colored population. At three o’clock they were called to the Courthouse yard, find Capt. Sloan, com mandant of the post, ascended the steps and took his position in front of the door of tho Superior Court room. The Cap tain commenced his talk by aayfng tt was customary for some one to explain the ob ject of everv meeting. He called upon any one of the crowd to state the object of their assembling. A freed man said—“I spoBe you gwine to make us a speech.” “What am I going to speak about?” interrogated tho Captain. “You gwine to give us some advice and directions,” responded the freedman. Captain S. said ho had heard of an old Aunty” who did not comprehend theob- joet of the meeting. She was met a short distance from Newnan by a gentleman, who asked her where she was going. The agod freed woman replied she was going to town after that bureau, and she was going to have it, too. The speaker continued : l ou are now free, but freedom means only freedom to do right. Tbo idea that has obtained currency among you that at Christmas tho lands, horses, etc., of for- mor masters would be parceled out among those who wore lately their slaves, was preposterous and erroneous. The Yan kees cannot give you lands, for they have none to give. If you expect to own prop erty you must labor and acquire it. Cap* tuin S. urged upon his numerous uuditory the necessity and propriety of an honest and truthful courso in life. He told them if they expected to live by pilfering they were mistaken, for he would severely puu* isb those provon to be guilty. He explained to them the nature of a contract, and when once it was made, both parties should scrupulously obsorve it. Tho virtue of obedieuce wai strongly portrayod. When the speaker touched upon the subject of marriage and announced that ho would punish any one guilty of biga my, wo imagined wo could see a shade of dissatisfaction overshadow the counte nance of some of tho vicious.

We have not attompUd to give the words of Captain S., but to reproduce a few of hi* ideas. His address was replete with good advice, ami if received as intended, the freed population will bo benefitted. Tho crowd, after pationtly listening to a speech for nearly an hour, quietly dis persed. Until convinced to the contrary, we did not believe that any one doubted the speaker being tho veritable Capt. Sloan. Our citizens, liowovor, overheard a fow of the darkies conversing, and one said, ‘they can’t fool me; that nmn (referring to the one who had addressed thorn) was Frank Welch in Yankeeclothos.’ Frank Welch is a printer in this office, and was busily engaged as such whilo Capt. Sloan was speaking. Provious to Capt, Sloan’s address some of the more foolish ones wore going^ around town trying to sell some furniture, to make room for the large bureaus to be re ceived that day. We know of one or more trades having boon made. We had nearly forgotten to mention a fact stated by Captain Sloan, which was, that there had been an average of one death per day—seventy-five in ail—among the freed population during his stay in Newnan. This is true, and tells heavily against emancipation. Wo think we are correct in Maying that in previous year*, whilo tho negroes wore slaves, during the same length of time, not more than one* twelfth of that number of deaths occurred What conclusions will impartial men draw from theso facts? wiU take great olousure in hauling aJl C^tiucs I WoKTH KNOWING.—The following upide utour Wok* to the different ao^ots, steaui- | ^ Oriental Troubles, 4c, Thore i* a curious bit of news from Siam It seems that a French priest recently fell ut loggerheads with a Sameee Judge. The former wont to bis consul and lodged a complaint against the oriental dispenser of justice. The judge visited the consul. Tho denouncement is thus described by tho Siam Times, published at Bangkok : “Tho Consul refused to Ibten to the judge, seized him by the hair of his head, ordered him away, and threw hi* betel box out of tbo door. A greater insult could not well havo been givon either to the judge or to his M«jeBty. The betel box was one presented by tho king, and con stituted a part of his insignia or office. “Tho Siamcso Government could but be highly indignant at the conduct of the French Consul. As the news spread abroad among the officers it was no easy matter to rostrain their feelings, and act within the bounds of reason. What, we ask, would he the course of the French Government should a difficulty arise in Paris with a foreign Consul, and the Em peror should senu his cousin, Prince Na poleon, to oxploin the matter, and the Consul should suit in his face, throw a part of his insignia of office out of doors and order him out of the consulate ?

EXTRACT FROM A LATE SPEECH OF few* 8,0F ALA - * NEW Indite and Gentlemen : It is difficult with language to portray the devastation wnich war, especially civil war, produces, so as to furnish an adequate idea of its J°. rea ^ Ee the, “ you must wit ness them ; to comprehend them you must live upon the theatre and. trttnfeea the advance and retreat of vaai armlm. listen to the roar of battle, and tee those who are left upon the field, after the re treat ; you must see fields laid whMetrfcrm house*, cotton houses and gina in ruin#, you must see towns and ciTee in fiamea, to form anything like an adequate idea of what war in reality is. You whose for tune it bas been to see only the regiment with colors streaming, the recipients of all the kindness and watchful care that friends bestow, a? they left for the scene of battle, ran form no conception of the appearanco of that regiment after the battle is over, unless, indeed, it hae bean your fortune to be in the scene of action, or so near it that your house has been crowded with those who have become victims of the strife. It will he in your recollection, ladies and gentlemen, that during the last of March and in April, the rebellion aud- denly collapsed. At that time pubiio attention in the North was doubtless turn ed mainly to the operations around Rich mond, and to those which attended the movements of the vast armies of General Sfierman. But it also happened that God. Wilson, with a large force of cavalry— some sevonleeu thousand, I believe, in number—commenced a movement from the Tennessee river and a point in the northwest of the State of Alabama, diag onally across tho State. He penetrated to the centre, and then radiated from Selma in every direction, through one of the most productive regions of the South. : °f about ten thousand inbabiant*—its defenses were carried by assault on one of tho first Sunday evenings in last April, the sun about an hour high. Before another sun rose every house iu the city was sacked, except two; every woman was robbed of her watch, her ear rings, her finger rings, her jewelry of all descriptions, and the whole city given up tor the time to the possession of the sold* iers. It wa9 a severo discipline to this people. It was thought necessary by the General in command to subdue the spirit of rebellion. For one woek tho forces under Geueral \\ iIson occupied that little town, and night alter nij(ht, and day after day, one public building after another—first the arsenal, then the foundery, each of which covered about eight or nine acros of ground, and was conducted upon a scale commensurate with the demand that the military supplies for the war created, the railroad depots, machine shops connected with them—everything of that description which had been in any degree subaorvient to the cause of the rebellion, was laid in ashes. Out of 6orne sixty odd brick stores in the city, forty-nine, I think, wore con sumed. On tho line of march you were scarcely out of sight of some indication of its terrible consequences. Indeed, after three weeks had elapsed, it was with diffi culty you could travel the road from Plantersvillo to that city, 60 offensive was the atmosphere in consequence of decay ing horses and mules that lay along the roadside. Every description of ruin, ex cept the interred dead of the human fam ily, met the eyo. I witnessed it myself. The fact is that no description can equal the reality. When the Federal forces laft the little town—which is built on a bluff on the Alabama river—they crossed on a pontoon bridge, commencing in the night to cross, and their way was lighted by burning warehouses standing upon tha shore. When old Blucher was ouarterod in the Palace of St. Cloud, in lolo, after doing that little job at VYateiloo, which gave hiui a free pass into Franco, and a view of the grand house of the grand nation, he stole seven pictures which he found in that pleasant abode, all of them being illustra tions of tho Bonaparto family. Two of these pictures be gave to royal personagos, who kindly consented to make themselves as bad as the thief, so great was their ad miration for art and love of “portable property,” as Mr. Wemmick nath it. These royal recipient* were the King of Prussia and the King of Wurtemberg. The other fivo pictures were placed m Blucher’s house, where they romainod for many year* ; but there has been a lawsuit among the members of hi* family as to tha ow lership of the stolen property, and it has been legally decided that they must be sold lor the benefit of all tho disputants. Consequently they are to come under tha hammer, as they once came under the mrd. Throe ot them are by Ger&rd, and rep* resents—first, the present French Empe ror, then but half a dozen years old, with bis mother, Queen Horlcnse. holding him by the hand; second, then Queen of Na ples, Murat's wife (Bonaparte’s sister Caroline), aurrounded by her children, and, third, the Queen of Spain, (Joseph Bonaparte’s wife) with her daughter, a child of nine year*. The fourth, by Davis, is a picturo of Empress Maria Louise, holding her son, the little King of Rome, by the hand ; and the fifth, by Lefevre, is a portrait of the Prionces Borghese, Pau line Bonaparte, the handsomest of all Bo« ouparle's handsome sisters. It was a curious pieco of fortune that nut theso pictures into tho hands of the bitterest enemy of tho Bonapartes.lho man who did more than all other men to tear the Emperor down ; and now it i* suggest>• ed that the third Napoleon may buy them and add them to the arliscal treasures of France. As his own portrait, and that of his mother, are in the collection, he if bound to ransom those pictured prisoners of the bluff old Prussian, who would be both astonished and annoyed could he be inlornied that the Bonaparto dynasty, which he supposod be had destroyed, had revived again, and was steadily becoming more powerful than it was in the days ot* tho first Napoleon. He would think that the whirling of time bad been more than ordinarily active, and that thero was no accounting for the world's caprices. The Peohpictb of Cotton.—We are author.zed to state that one of the most astute Hiui experienced merchants of the South, backed by ample capital from New York, has recently gono to Livorpool to purchase ten thousand bales of cotton, with instructions to hold it until the 1st of July, 1806. The confidence of the gentle men engaged in making this investment in tho future of cotton, must be very strong, to induce them lo invest three millions of dollars in the staple at present prices. Those who are able to hold cotton should take into consideration tbo example thus set them, and doterrnino whether it is not to their interest at least to remain firm annul govern himself; butonecan long as the statistics of the crops hold out lo them such favorablo inducements.
