The following is an extract of a letter from a respect
able gentleman at M ckey’s Saline, (Boon’s Lick) June 2,
1816.
“On Tuesday morning last, a party of Indians way
laid the Saline and stole off two of our most valuable ne
groes from the place of wood chopping, and took with
them their axes, and water j ugs. The Indians made off'
towards the Mississippi, passed the Hurricane settlement
and assaulted a Mr. Liggit, robbed him of his hat, threat
ened to cut his throat if he did not ieave that place, made
him signs that they would eat the corn he was then
working in. Major Cooper with a party of fifty or sixty
men, pursued and routed the Indians near the head of
the Charetteau, sixtv or seventy miles hence; but they
were too precautions, having kept back spies who gave
the alarm and escaped w ith the negroes, leaving the ax
es, some mockinsons, leggins and. bows.
The pursuers were not able to ascertain what nation
the Indians were of.
It has excited much alarm among us, the symptoms are
much alike when they commenced hostilities two years
ago.”
June 15.
Indian News.—It is conjectured that the Indians echo
have committed the late depredations at the Boon’s Lick
settlements, are a party of Sacks and Witiebagoes who
were returning from an expedition against some tribes of
Missouri Indians, with whom they are at war. Treaties
will not bind these people, fear will only restrain them.
Incidents in the proceedings of brigadier general Smith
fullv illustrate this assertion. T he general with about
one thousand regular troops ascended to Rock river a
ftw weeks ago to erect a fort; he chose a position on
Iiock Island,* the most commanding spot in that quarter,
and immediately commenced building. T he Indian chiefs
pressed him to desist, declaring that they could not be
responsible for the conduct of their young warriors, who
d is approbated building a tort in their neighborhood; the
general treated them civilly but went on with the work,
and no doubt by tins time iias a fortress of great strength
completed. A person who left there a few days ago, re
present the, Indians as friendly and much attached to
general Smith, who was preparing to ascend to Praire du
Gliein to erect a strong fort in that neighborhood.
Three hundred of the rifle regiment have sailed from
Bciie Fountaine to join him.
Nicholas Boulvin, esq. the Indian agent resident at I’ra-
rie de Chein, informs us, that the remaining - hostile bands
of the W'inebago and Fulsavoine nations may be expect
ed shortly to treat with the commissioners.

“The bodies of Henry Irvin and Patty Nash, were yes

“It is reported, and generally believed, that the Alge

From the National Advocate, July 18.
We have received Paris, papers to the 26lii of May, and
Bordeaux papers to the 4th of June; they contain no
thing - more than we have already given, as relates to the
iisturbances at Grenoble and other parts of France; they
lenote, however a desire to hide, by every means, the re
al state of the country. As usual, they are filled with-
slavish and lavish praises of the royal family-; and, on ev
ery occasion, the troops are - made to cry God save the
king, and all the populace to shut in return.
These papers are rather more communicative of the
state of England than of their own country . The Que

“Those who considered an army of 25,boil men too
great and even dangerous for England in a -time of peace,
may, at present, perceive, that this force is not actually
sufficient to maintain its internal tranquility.”
We believe this—neither 25,000 bayonets nor 25,600
tyrannies will be sufficient to overcome a mniion of mise
ries which cry daily to heaven for redress.
