BATTLE WIIH THE INDIANS.
The following official account of a battle with
the Indiana in Utah, will he lead with interest. It
is from an accomplished officer, who has kindred*
and friends in this city :
Box Elpkr, U. TANARUS., August 13th, 1859.
Sir :—1 have the honor to report that, having
arrived yesterday within six miles of this place, 1
went into camp, and two hours afterwards had re
liable iulormation, that a large body of ludiaus
were probably encamped somewhere in the kanyon
leading from this valley to Cache Valley. 1 was
informed, at the same time, that within live or six
a.ya past. liu4 uOiten u number of animals
from tiiis and other adjoining settlements: and
that they were the same party who had murdered
and robbed an emigrant train on Sublett’s Out-olf.
1 immediately resolved to attack them. At ID
o’clock, I’. M., 1 broke up camp and moved quietly
to this village. Here 1 left my wagons with a
guard, ami proceeded w ith a command of forty-two
men, taking with me four pack mules with four days
rations in order to be prepared, if necessary, to
pursue them in the mountains. By 2A. M., 1 had
everything prepared lor ihe march, and having
procured a guide, who professed to kuow the In
dian encampment, entered the kanyon. After a
rapid inarch of two hours, the encampment was
indicated by a number of ponies grazing, and in a
moment afterwards by the Indians jumping up from
their beds under the bushes, and running up the
mountain sides, which were here covered with un
dergrowth. 1 immediately formed my men and
charged upon the main body of them ; in the charge
several of the enemy were killed and wounded.
They then scattered a.id took positions behind
rocks, Ac. Here they were charged and driven up
precipices bey ond the reach of men on horses. I
then dismounted my men and kept up a tire for at
least an hour and a half, which tor an hour was
briskly returned by the enemy, but he gradually
coaaodto tire. Tile precipitous nature of the ground
rendering it utterly Impossible to pursue him, I
drove oil his horses and returned to this place.—
The attack commenced just before the dawn and
continued until alter sunrise.
1 am satisfied that the encampment was selected
with a view to defence, and for this purpose they
could not have found a more admirable place in
the whole NVahsatch Range of mountains. (It is
known as Devil's Gate Kanyon.) As soon as the
Indians were discovered my Mormon guide “slid”
quietly from his horse, and was seen no more, until
on in v return near this town 1 overhauled him. He
was unable to give any satisfactory reason for his
desertion. I have since learned that he came into
town during the action, and reported “ that we
never would gel out of that place.” The horse he
rode was one 1 had furnished him, and strange to
say was found with an Indian on his back : the
latter was shot and the hoise taken. If my guide
had desired to lend me into a latal ambuscade, lie
could not have taken me to a spot better adapted
lor the purpose.
The guide and many others estimated the Indian
force at from 150 to 200 warriors. The number
filled was about twenty as near as we can calculate.
I had no men killed, but four severely, though pro
bably not mortally, and two slightly wounded.
Nine of my horses were wounded.
The number of horses lukefi was twenty, nearly
half being Ameriern horses.
It is a source of great satisfaction to me to know
that one of the horses captured provt'd to be one
which the Indians had taken from the train on
SubleU’s Cut-oil, at the time of the massacre of
July. lVobably more belonging to the same train
would have been captured, had not the Indian ani
mals stampeded during the action, which could not
be prevented, owing to the small guard which could
be spared from the company lor the purpose of
securing property.
I am much indebted to Lieut. Ryan, for his ser
vices on this occasion, which were performed with
a inasteily intrepidity and coolness during the
whole action.
Assistant Surgeon J. Moore receives the heart
felt thanks of myself, as well as the soldiers under
my command, for his immediate and kind attentions
to the wounded on the field during the action, and
bis continual personal attendance since.
The company behaved noblv on this occasion,
I have the honor to refer the General Commanding
to the list of wounded accompanying the report.
It is rumored to day that 2ta> Bannack Indians
arrived in Cache Valley yesterday. These, with
the number of Indians already there, will make
probably about *QU. A large emigration is near a
point on Bear River twenty miles from this (Cache)
Valley. 1 shall wait here long enough to care for
mv wounded and reel nit my horses, when I shall
proceed to Bear River in order to prevent the In
dians lrom interfering with emigration.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,

for bis transatlantic voyage is one hundred and
sixty-two feet in diameter, and lias a capacity for
eight hundred and twelve thousand cubic feet of

“ When mlined and iu order it will resemble au
ordinary balloon, with the exception of the appen
dages to the ear. The car is a basket of wicker
work, six feet in diametef and lour deep, having
an aperture in the bottom, about two feet in diam

The cords which attach this car to the balloon
puss up to a hoop some six or eight feet above, and
are covered with canvass, so as to make a wall,
having windows cut in it. This enclosure is in
tended to protect the passengers from the cold.—
In this car will also be placed a lime stove and the
provisions for Lite voyage. At a distance of some
twenty feet below the boat will be suspend

Au to Thomas Corwin’s Credit.
lion. Thomas Corwin still continues to do the
country good service, says the Atlanta Intelligen
cer, by slaying alive the Chases, Giddingges, and
all other A olitionists of the party who declare
that the Fugitive Slave Law shall not be obeyed.
At St. Claiisville, the other day, he was especially
severe on the treasonable and fanatical leaders
who control the Republicans of Ohio. He is re
ported in the Gazette (Opposition) of that place
as Myine :
“That is the law, and we have agreed to abide
by it—the law is constitutional and must be obey
ed. Young lawyers with soaped mustaches and a
cigar a foot long in their mouths, who had cursori
ly glanced over Blnekstonc’s Commentaries, and
who had read Swan on Executors and Administra
tors, and perhaps seen Wilcox’s Forms, had no
hesitation in pronouncing it unconstitutional ; but
in the face of such distinguished authority, it is
Constitutional; and it is the law of the land—that
the highest and most intelligent tribunals in the
land have so pronounced it—so defended it, and
there can be no doubt about it.”
The Gazette says Mr. Corwin further declared:
“ Now, it being the lav/, it must be obeyed—if
it is resisted, it is felony ; if resisted with an arm
ed force, it is treason, and those who resist it must
be shot—must be bung. Some men among us
have a doctrine they call higher law doctrine, and i
profess that their consciences are above and be
yond tbe Constitution. These gentlemen are trait
ors, and must be elevated to a purer atmosphere.

Tlie ‘• Auzcigcr” xtiitl the lXarper’g Ferry
Affair.
The Anseiger pes Westens, the German Black
Republican organ in Missouri, and read almost ex
clusively by German Free Soilers and Abolitionists,
is less careful than its brethreu published in Eng
lish, and thus gently chides them for not taking
the defence of the Harper’s Ferry insurrection.
“The proverbial distaste for revolutions iu the
United Stales has not prevented their traces from
being discovered even here. Filibuster expedi
tions, vigilance committees, the forcible driving of
citizens trom tiic ballot box, and at last the insane
attempt at Harper’s Ferry, are all equally nothing
more than attempts at revolutions. Their extent,
or more correctly speaking, their narrow circle,
and the probability of their failure, are all that
distinguish them from many other similar move
ments iu our day, in other parts of the world ; in
the opinion of those who lend themselves to them,
they Hre revolutionary attempts — nothing more.
Iu Europe every rebellion, however frivolous
the cause, finds defenders in a certain class of-the
people, and a certain portion of the press ; but
every armed rising in the Uuited States, though
made on the juxtest grounds, cannot count oil pub
lic support, or .on defence by anv newspaper.—
Even the party in whose favor it has been set on
punt, anti to jrtiose advantage it might possibly re
sult, will loudly and promptly condemn it, and will
even, pet haps, use the strongest language and ad
vise the most violent measures against those guil
ty of it.
This is a peculiarity of public life in this coun
try which we will mention but will not discuss.—
Whether it is right suddenly to tread under loot
aud wish to the gallows, any man or set of men,
because in a blundering, silly, forbidden manner,
to which the instincts of this people are unused,
they attempt to execute tbe very thing for which
others have for years bawled themselves hoarse, and
written their fingers off, and held meetings and
conventions ; for which those others have called on
their God, their Religion and their Bible, and have
represented it to be the holiest duty of life and the
obligation of our century ; is a question which we
leave alone ; because discussion loses its rights
when aii entire people cries down any difference
of opinion.

Those who make the Republican party, and Gid
dings and Seward responsible for Captain Brown’s
mad attempt, go as much beyond the mark as those
who, iu order to white wash themselves , first de
clare him to be insane, and then wish to bring
him to the gallows.”
IVlio Paid live CxpciHo 1
Thc^ Chief of the Harper’s Ferry Insurrection,
Brown, we believe, is not understood to be a man
of much wealth, lie probably had means enough
to support himself comfortably in life—but he cer
tainly had not the wealth necessary to put an army
of jijtce>i hundred men on a war footing. \Ye say
“ft I tee n hundred,” because that is his own state
ment. Among his inventory, we see, are—
Two Hundred Sharpe’s Rilles.
Two Hundred Revolvers.
One Thousand SpearS.
And plenty ol Ammunition.
A good tilie costs about $25. (We think that
was about the quotation at the New Haven Church
meeting.) Two hundred of them would make a
bill of $5,000. Two hundred revolvers, at the
New York average price—sav sls each—would
make $3,000 more. The “ spear” is anew instru
ment of death, we hcliove, in this country; but as
a “ speaker,” to be worth anything, ought to cost
at least $5, one thousand of them adds another
$5,000 to the bill. Total, (without the ammunition)
SIB,OOO. Until it can bo proved that Brown had
that much money, in cash—the inference remains
that there must be some outside contributors
somewhere. Now, the question is, who are those
contributors ? Time and enquiry will tell.— N. Y.
L'xjirees .
Source or tiik Nils Discovered.— The great,
problem of the source of the Nile, which has occu
pied the attention of the wr-orld during so many
ages, may now be considered as definitely solved.
Capt. Speke, who has just returned to England
from an extended tour in Central Africa, iu com
pany with C’apt. Burton, discovered a lake, called
by the natives Nyanza, but by the Arabs Ukerewo,
which appears to l*e the great reservoir of the Nile.
It extends from 2 deg. Ito south, to 3 deg. 30 north
latitude, lying across the equator in east longitude
S3 deg. Its waters are the drainage of numerous
hills which surround it on almost every side. The
new lake washes out the Mountains of the Moou as
at present existing in onr allasses. An expedition
has been formed in Bombay for the purpose of
continuing and completing the discoveries of Cap
tains Burton and Speke. Mr. J. Kenelly, Secreta
ry to the Bombay Geographical Society, and Dr.
Sylvester, are at the head of it. They are to set
out in November, and will attempt a thorough ex
ploration of ihe gieat lake region, winch is now
known to contain the source of the Nile.
Worth Knowing. —lt is not generally known,
we think, bow easy a matter it is to examine the
bottom of a well, cistern, or pun and of water bv tbe
use of a common mirror. When the sen is shining
brightly, hold a n.irror so that tbe reflected ry*
of light will fail into the water. A bright spot will
be seen at the bottom, so light as to show the
smallest object very plainly. By this mentis we
have examined the bottoms of w ells fifty feet <lcep,
when half full or more of water. The smallest
straw, or other small object, cau be perfectly teen
from tbe surface. In the same way one can exam
ine the bottoms of ponds and rivers, if tlie water
he somewhat clear and not agitated by winds or
rapid motion. If a well or cistern be undercover,
or shaded by buildings, so that the sunlight will
not fall near the opening, it is only ueoeseurv to
employ two mirrors, using one to reflect the light
to tire opening, and another to send it down per
pendicularly into the water. Light may be throw n
fifty or a hundred yards to the precise spot desired,
and then reflect downward.

To the hihtoi’ of ihe h utiounl ;
Dkar Sin: In speaking ot lilt) opinions ofcoiu
l*eleiit Geologists, as recorded m the book referred
tt, touching the comparative >iu'S_ol the iion
ores of Georgia, we ought not to pis? by what is
said t-oueerniug the iron ores in Gtierosce and Gil
iuer counties.
Os these he says: ‘‘Beyond the furnaces,. (Lewis
A Ford s furnaces,) to the north'cast, toe ore is
louod in even greater quantities thu tielore no
ticed. Upou a high knob, eight miles lroui the ri
ver, (Etowah,) is a greater show of it than 1 have
seeu at the iamous Iron Mountain of Missoati.”
Os the vicinity #f .Sharp Mountain he says: “The
quantity here, 100, upon sharp Mountain, within
six miles of the river, is enormous.”
Passing through Lumpkin comity, he might have
said the same of the hills and mountains there.
\Vno, in Europe or America, that considers these
subjects, has not heard of the “Pilot Kuob” ami
“Iron Mountain” o! Missouri, so famous lor iron
ore ? And we have greater than those ia Casa
county —greater in Cherokee, Gilmer anil Lump
kin counties-—and yet it creates no sensation in
Cherokee Georgia, is not known to, or cared for by
our Legislators uud Statesmen at Mitiedgevilk?. —
They are not even prompted to appoint a compe
tent uuui to examine and report the facts.
Hundreds of thousands of doiUrs are iuvested
in furnaces in different States, relying on those lo
calities iii Missouri, to keep them going. Millions
of tons of the raw ore of Missouri are transported
to Ohio, and even to Pennsylvania, and sold to
make iron lor the use of cotton-planters in Geor
gia. We are greater ia these resources than Mis
souri, Ohio uud Pennsylvania ail put together, and
our own statesmen overlook it, and the course of
legislation is such as to drive capitul and labor from
tiiis region, and keep more of this wealth than
Missouri has buried in the hills of Georgia.
The progre.-s which individuals have made in the
development of this hidden wealth, is slow and
limited. A few, however, unsparing of their
means, their time and their efforts, have (lone
enough in “prospecting,” as miners term it, to ex
pose the mines, and lead the Commonwealth of
Georgia to a knowledge of where the treasure lies.
Just enough to show what could be done, if aided
by that countenance which the Stale, having so
large aud deep an interest, could and ought to af
ford.
The main progress has been made within fifteen
years past. Prior to that, one or two small blast
furnaces, and these of recent origin, with as nmnv
primitive forges, now abandoned, was the limit of
iron operations iu Georgia. During the past fif
teen years, there have been erected eix charcoal
furnaces, making, now, seven in all. These are all
located in Cass county, to-wit: Lewis’ Furnace,
the Fire-Eater or Ford's Furnace, Pool's Furnace,
Milner’s Furnace, Allatoona Furnace, and the Et
owah Furnace and River Furuace, owned by the
Etowah Manufacturing and Mining Company. All
are blown by water-power, and use charcoal as
fuel. The five first produce annually an aggregate
of about twenty-five hundred tons ol pig metal.
The two last are making at the rate of about
3,000 tons per annual. The pig metal here sells
at about $25 per toil. All of these furnaces pro
duce more or lets of castings. There is, however,
but one foundry with a cupola. This is at Etowah
Furnace, habitually producing cast machinery aud
hollow ware.
There is at Etowah a rolling mill for merchant
iron of all kinds, now turning out about ten tons
of iron per day. Also, a nail factory with ten ma
chines lor cutting nails; a machine for railroad
spikes, machine shops, Ac. for lifting up—all pro
pelled by water-power. A railroad has been built,
aud is now in operation, from the Western A At
lantic Railroad along the bank of Etowah River,
four miles, to the i oiling mill at Etowah, passing
immediately by the River Furnace. These fur
naces, and other operations in iron, give employ
ment to five or six hundred operatives and labor
ers, and afford support to a population of about
j 2,000 people of all age3 and sexes. Os these, about
I one hundred are blacks.
We will next consider the interest which the
State, as a Commonwealth, has is the progress of
the iron business.

Gerrit Smith and Capt, Brou n.
Tiie Syracuse Journal learns from a gentleman
who has conversed with Gcrrit Smith in regard to
tire trouble at Harper’s Ferry that lie was in no
way identified with or privy to Brown’s scheme.—
His explanation of the matter is this :
“ Two years ago Mr. Smith, in order to help the
Free State movement in Kansas, gave Brown a
note of about S3OO against a man then in Kansas*
Brown could not collect the note ; so Ire returned
it to Mr Smith, who agreed to give him, at some
future time, cash to the amount of the note. Af
ter that he lost sight of Brown, Until about the Ist
of June last, when he received a letter requesting
him to send a draft for a certain amount, $ 100 we
think, payable to the order of another party, Mr.
Smith, in compliance with the request and bis for
mer promise, promptly forwarded the draft, sup
j posing it was a bona firm to whom it was address
ed. Mr. Smith says distinctly that he had no
knowledge or the least suspicion that Brown was
engaged in planning an insurrection.
Charles Blair, the Collinsville manufacturer
lof pikes for Brown, whose letters were found
among Brown’s effects, is thus spoken of by the
Hartford Post:
“He is a workman in the Collinsville Axe,Com
pany, employing the men under him, and taking
what contracts he pleases. Some time in lfrofi or
1857 old Brown Came to Oolt’Hisville and contrac
ted for a thousand pikes to be used in Kansas.—
! Five hundred were finished for him at that time,
and the other five hundred were left in the hands
of the contracror. Last June old Brown again
made his appearance in Collinsville, and requested
Mr. Blair to finish up the remainder of the pikes.
Blair asked him to what use he intended to put
them, now that Kansas disturbances were over ?
To this question Brown gave an evasive reply.—
The finishing of the contract was given to a Mr.
Hart, of L’nionville.”
Advertising Obituary. —The following strange
bit of obituary we clip from a New Jersey paper:
“Departed this life, on tbe 11th instant, at his
shop, No. So Greenwich street, Mr. Edward Jones,
much respected by all wiio knew and dealt with
him. Asa man, he was amiable, and as a hatter,
he was upright and moderate. His virtue* were
beyond all price, and bia heaver hats were onlv
ibree dollars each, lie has lew. a widow to deplore
hi?loss, and a large stock to be sold cheap tor tbe
bent fit of his family. He was snatched lrom the
world in the prime of life, just as he had concluded
an extensive purchase of felt, which he got so cheap
that the widow can supply hats at a more reason
able rate than any house in the city. The discon
solate family will carry ou business with punctual
ity.”
