country to Maiden, lias proved to be nothing but rumor. It is supposed that this rumor originated from the fact that there has been an appearance of hostility among some Indians near Il ck Island, Illinois, and from the fact that there was a battle between the Illinoss troops and the Sacks, near the Mississippi river. The battle, we understand, was fought in the open prairie, and the Indians, as well as
biles, fought on horse-hack, and
fought desperately too. The Indians were defeated, with the loss of between
frro and three hundred the number of
Y bites killed was something more than one hundred. We also learn from Gen G rover, that there were two families massacred near
llock river, III., a few days since.
The vague and unfounded stories
which are made and circulated, res-pec
ling the Indians coming upon our fron
tier, will no doubt be cause for lamentation for fomc time to come; and it will require years, to give the same impetus to emigration to the west, and northern part of this state that it has hitherto had, to say nothing about the
