The fact is this that although tho plot for lode-

The only difference lathis, that the odiousneu
of the mans by which the meditated independ

Sib : 1 have the honor to inform you
that the roopi who lately visited the Rica-
rs Towns returned to this post on the 27th
inst.
We arrived before the Rieara Towns on
the 9th of the present month. The Sioux
Indians, who were with us, were met by the
Ricaras a short distance from their towns,
and a skirmish took place between them.
The Ricaras maintained their ground, ot
rather drove the Sioux back, until the re
gutar troops and General Ashley’s men ar
rived, and formed their line. The Ricaras
were then-immediately driven into their
towns. The Sioux were so much scattered
in front of the troop; that the latter were
unable to deliver their fire, without killing
some of the Sioux, ami therefore did not
(ire.
Our boats arrived subsequently doting
the evening of the 9th, and our artillery was
disembarked. *
On the morning of the 10th, Car tain Ri
ley, with a company of Riflemen, and Lieut.
Bradley, with a company of Infantry, were
ordered to take possession of a hill above
the upper village. They immediately took
a position there within one hundred steps
from the town, and in a situation which
screened them from the fire of. the enemy
from the towns. At the same moment, Lt.
Morris, with one six pounder, and a five
and a halt inch howitzer, commenced an at
tack upon the lower town.—Sergeant Per
kins, with one 6 pounder, was ordered to
report to Mr. Vanderburg, of the Missouri
Fur Company. This 6 pounder was placed
above the upper village. A brisk fire was
continued upon tho towns until three o’clock
in the afternoon. The Sioux were, in tho
mean time, busily engaged in gathering
and carrying off the com pi the Ricaras.
At 8 o’clock Maj. Ketchum wasalsc or
defed to the upper village with his conipa
ny-
Betwecn 3 and 4 o'clock the 6 pounder
and the troops opposed to the upper village,
were withdrawn, and our.whole force con.
cent'rated below the lower village, and the
trops ordered to form, for the purpose of
collecting corn for their pwn use, as Gen.
Ashley’s men had then been destitute of
provision's for two days. At this time, a
party of Sioux, and a party of Ricaras, both
on horseback, were discovered holding a
the ni| -
Major Ketchum, with his company, and
company. E. com'manded by Lieut. Bradley,
and Lieut. Morris, with one < pounder,
were ordered to take possession of the
towpa, and to suffer not the least article to
be taken.eway, or the (pwni to be injured.
A (oeasenger was sent to call back the
Indians, if possible, and to induce them to
take possession of their villages, but they
could not be found. It was now evident
that our artillery had been served with very
great effect- The towns had been com
pletely riddled. We found 31 new graves,
and we found that several old ones had b en
opened, and the surface act thick with
prickly pears to cone'eal the new dirt. We
know that 10 men, who were killde by the
Sioux in the skirmish on the 9th, were bu
ried in five graves; and we know, also more
than onq*waa buried in several of the other
graves. From the best evidence which we
could coltec, it is suposed that more than
50 of their people were killed, and a great
number wounded. Our mesiengers re
turned on.lhe evening of the 14th, without
having been able to find the Rffiaraa.

that we had killed a great many of their
people, and of their horses They were
evidently very much terrified,andfoomplctc

supposing that the government would be
better pleased to have those Indians cor
r.-eted than exterminated, knd as the Sioux,
amounting to about 7 or 800 warriors, had
left us in a very strange and unaccountable
manner, it waa thought host, under all the
eircuinstances of the case, to listen to. the
solicitations of the Ricaras for peace, eape
daily as it was understood that our round
shot were nearly all expanded; consequent

in restoring to Gen. Ashley the proper

did not perform their engagements on that

they were threatened with an attack. Their

nearly at the same (line. Before we wore
out of sight of the towns, we had the mor
tifiealior. to discover them lo be on-fiie —
There is no doubt but they have brer, con
sumed to ashes, nor is there any doubt but
that they were act on fire by one M’Donaid,
a partner, and one Gordon, a clerk of the
Missouri Fur Company. Had not this been
done, there is no doubt, there is no room
to doubt, but that the Rieara Indiana would,
in future, have behaved as well towards our
countrymen as any other Indiana on the
river. It is now n-.y deliberate opinion, that
those Indians will be excited to further hcs.
tilities.
It is understood that this Company (the
Missouri,) have withdrawn their trade from
above the *Sioux country. Not so with
Messrs Ashley and Henry; they have i
small number of men and a large amount
of property at the' mouth of tho Yellow
Stone rivor, and they were deeply Interest
ed in the correction and pncificalinn hi the
Ricaras. Their zeal and efficiency in aid
ing to chastise those indians were conspicu
ous and highly honorable.
We found the Rieara Indians in two vil
lages the lower one containing 71 dirt lod
ges, and the upper village 70 dirt lodges.
Each village was enclosed with palisadoes,
or pickets, and a ditch, and a greater 'pan
of the lodges liul a ditch around the bottom:
on the inside, tfrhesc works, however, had
been represented to he much stronger than
what wc found them to be.
purine our operations, we sustained no
loss in An, and had but two wounded,
Hugh Johnson, ol Gen. Ashley’s command,
and Smith, a privalq of Major Kcichum’s
company.
Our' officers and men have returned in
fine health and spirits, and it is well, for
those left here are nearly ell sick. Captain
Fowle arrived here with 85 men. (recruits,)
on the 28th inst.
Our spring wheat has done well, and all
our crops are very good. No material los
ses will bu sustained by our absence. In
ascending the river, we lost one boaf, and
seven men drowned, and had another boat
sunk by a storm. We lost one swivel and
some ammunition, ant) some provisions;
particular account of all oP which shall be
soon forwarded, together with a statement
of cvery -itcm of expense.
I have been highly gratified with the of
ficers and men of the regiment, and also
with Gen. Ashley and his command of 80
men, and intend to do myself the honor to
make a more detailed and circumstantial
account of all our proceedings, and of what
was done by each, and hope that what has
been done will meet the appr ,ballon ol
