Wc publish fall details of tte massacres
Committed by the Indians in Minnesota. The
number of people butchered is very large.
The cause of the outbreak is still indoubt.
The pretext alleged is, that the Government

txuuuities, thereby keeping the Si; ux awaiting

But in answer to this allegation U
fchotiM be known that the treaties of ISGI fix
y»o time in the year at which the annuities arc
to be paid the Indians. The trei.lles simply
provide that payments shall bt. made an*

ing them the jjrovifions that were provided for
distribution at the payment, with Ibe positive
j-ipurunce on the part of the Indians, that
they would go away and not return until they
•were t-ent for to attend the payment.
Another charge is that Superintendent
after receiving tie money from
'Wa.pbirglon, had detained it here Tor the pur

The Fight at Big Hill.
Colonel Sletcalf Reaches Bichmond
in Safety.
THE B£BELS BEXAND A SUBBEIf"
DEB OF THE PLACE.
The following highly interesting narrative
of the recent conflicts of Colonel Metcalfe’s
command, with the rebels, near Richmond,
Ky., is from the pen of the colonel himself,
It was written as a private letter to his wife.
Richmond, August 24, 1862.—1 have had
Fllning tiroes since 1 left Lexington. Tester
day* about one o’clock, my pickets were driv
en in from the top of Big Bill, about fifteen
miles from Richmond, to my camp near the
foot of the hilL I immediately called out all
the men I could call together—numbering
about 400—and started for the summit. When
near our destination we dismounted, and
made the attack on foot upon the enemy, who
were pooled about 400 yards beyond the top.
One company, commanded by Capt. Berry,
had gone forward, but returned to the top,
several men being killed, and CoL Berry hav
ing tttfo horses shot under him. ‘ We then
moved forward on foot, amid a shower of bul
leta and shell, which go terrified my raw, un
disciplined recruits, that I could not bring
more than one hundred of them In sight of
the enemy. The great majority, I am sorry
to say, mounted tbeir horses and fled, without
even getting a look at the foe. It was impos
sible to rally them, and they continued their
flight to some distance north of Richmond,
and were only checked by meeting the brigade
under Col. Link, who compelled them to re
turn to Bichmond, where they now are.
The brave boys who did their duty were
sacrificed through these cowards; for I have
no hesitation in saying that if the latter had
obeyed my orders the rebels would have been
whipped. Weakened as they were, 100 men
fought the enemy for an hour and a half, and
compelled them to fall back. My men were
frightened by the shells, but I do not think a
simile person was killed by them, or a wound
received, except a slight one on my hand,
from a shell winch exploded within a few feet,
enveloping me completely inemoke and dust.
Fifty men will cover our loss in killed,
v outded and prisoners, ten men being killed.
IVc killed twenty-five ot the rebels.
I have been holding the enemy ia check for
four days, though tbeir forces are greatly su
perior to mine, and are posted on both sides
of me, less than fourteen miles distant, and
may each attack me at any hour. I had deter
mined, however, to fight before giving up tbe
advanced position I then held, hoping tliat
rtinforcements, forage and provisions would
airive. During the “four days my horses had
been fed with com but twice. The country
fonth of Big Hill is entirely destitute, and
subsistence for cavalry must be sent from
Lexington. To supply onr regiment at the
Gap ICO wagons will be required.
I hod a narrow escape. Shortly after the
above encounter, while with Col Odon, some
distance behind onr men, a hundred rebels
dashed down the road after us. Fortunately,
I bad placed about two hundred Tennessee
infinity in the bushes on the roadside, who
fired on the enemy as they were seizing us.
Several of them were killed and wounded, the
rest driven back and we saved. At the lime
the Te nnesseeans fired there was not a man
of my regiment in sight. In company v ith
ny deliverers 1 hastened to the camp, where
I Jonnd about 200 men, and tried to rally
Uieiu. The enemy appeared again in five or
rin minutes, when my force ran pell mell at
tic first fin*. The Tennesseans, however,
showtd good courage, and checked the rebel
f] proach, killing several by their well di
rected fire.
They also took some prisoners, who say that
their command consisted of two regiments of
cavalry, having one battery of three pieces of
cannon. They were reported to numberaboat
1,2C0 men.
The odds were fearful—twelve to one—bnt
I was determined to have a fight, and wonld
not leave my position unless driven from It.
I think we did exceedingly well under the
circumstances.
The enemy pursued ns to this place, where
we arrived about ten o’clock. Shortly after,
they tent In a flag of truce, demanding an un
conditional surrender of myself and the town.
I replied that 1 would not surrender, and.
would fight it, out. I sene their flag-bearer
out of town, and immediately dlspatcned run
ners out on the Lexington road to hasten Col.
Link, who was approaching from that direc
tion. He arrived about 13 o’clock with rein
forcements, and the enemy concluded to post
pone their attack, and to-day retreated.

Gen. Cassius M, Clay is here, la command

Lateral, bnt asks only the position of a brig
; d\er, and his command constitutes a part of
the loree now hastening forward toward the
Cumberland Gap, and thence into Eis tern
Tennessee. In addition to this, there are
some other things tbatlknow concerning him
aud others, which I infer. I know that he
has received an urgent letter from Mr. Lin
coln, desiring him to return to Russia, and
that he has promised to do so, but I inter
both from bis conversation and his actions
that he intends to first take a turn with the
M-ci Zionists, though that may leave the mis
aion in the hands of Mr. Cameron for a year
or to. Ho begins as a brigadier, but if success
• quals his earnestness, he will not fall to take
> larger command, unless the purpose of Gen.
Halh ck is to cripple every man who has not a
West Point sheepskin.
There ia just now - a most remarkable revival
ol Unionism in this vicinity, the immediate
cause of ■which is the formation of a regiment
or two of colored individuals. Gen. Wallace
needs a turnpike irom this place to the Gap,
bfcforo winter sets in, ond he has levied upon
•he negroes of secessionists to build it. He
fends to each of them and demands three, six,
ten or twenty, according to the wealth of the
pi niter and the strength ot his secesh proclivi
ties. Testerday his aid demanded seven
from one who replied that he had not that
many able-bodied men, “ You must get them,
itm,” was the stern reply, and to-day the
man is trying to buy or hire the necessajy
number, until he can ran back those ha has
run oIT. I was much amused at the special
pleading of one man. By a friend, he called
upon a known Union man to represent to the
general that he was Union. “Union!” said
the man, “what has he done for the Union?”
Why, he was among the first to subscribe
>IOO to the soldiers’ relief fund.” “So he
was, but he never paid a cent of it,” was the
closing reply, and eecesh had to procure his
r.ciirot s. Is not this what is meant by “ mak
ing to yourselves friends of the Mammon of
unrighteousness.” That significant roll is
examined, and eveVy one whose name is not
vrrlen thtrciu, with 41 the amount set oppo
site” maiked paid, is held guilty of secesh
prcclivpii-g, and charged a negro or so as
atonement.
•Already some 500 of these road builder : are
in quarters, and their number is increasing
rapidly. The work begins to-morrow. The
engineer estimates that with a thousand ne
groes he can build a mile per day. The force
will probably be 2,000 in ten days or twa
weeks. The road is to be thrown np sixteen

Gen. Rousseau has hit upon a new expedi

PROBABILITIES OF A DRAFT.
Opinions Expressed in Cabinet.
[Special Dispatch to the.Chicago Tribune.}
Washingtok, August 26, 1562.
As the time approaches for enforcing the
draft, applications for permission to have the
draft suspended in certain regions for a brief
period, and to allow volunteering to continue
tor regiments now partly made up, began to
pour in on the war department. Early this
morning & few such applications were
granted under very strict regulations, and
with only a limited extension. As the secre
tary began to perceive the extent to which
this relaxation of rules would speedily go,
he at once refused all remaining applications.
Among those granted were one for a Philadel
phia regiment, which is permitted to con
tinue receiving np to September 3d, and one
from Lancaster, Pa., to Sept. Ist. All to which
such permission was granted were nearly full,
and no doubt was entertained that tbe draft
could be wholly avoided by a lew days more
volunteering. In these cases the same extra
bounties, etc., are allowed as prior to the ex
piration of the regular time for volunteering.
The belief begins to be entertained that on one
pretext or another a draft will be postponed
in many cases, and that the rigid rules of the
department on the subject will be relaxed to
satisfy the wishes of those who regard a draft
as a disgrace, and wish to avoid It.
The 2,000 prisoner story is partially but not
entirely untrue.
Gen. Corcoran brought in the 69th this after
noon, and left quietly for New York on the
five o’clock train. He will accept the invita
tion to go to Boston some time this week and
speak in Faneull Hall.
Gallagher’s rifled breech loading carbines
were tested to-day. They threw balls with
great accuracy a mile and a half. The govern
ment is beginning to introduce them in arm
ing Kentucky cavalry.
Orestes A. Brownson, the eminent Catholic
reviewer, made a stirring speech in response
to a serenade this evening at ‘Willard’s,.He de
clared himself strongly in favor of emancipa
tion, and said he agreed with the president in
colonization, hut he was committing a fatal
mistake of making emancipation depend upon
colonization. Freeing the slaves of rebels he
declared to be the instant necessity of the
bonr, demanded and justified as a war meas
ure. It was a noteworthy fact that every
strong declaration in favor of freeing
the slaves, and using them in any way
they can be made available for military pur
poses, was cheered to the echo. He electri
fied the audience with the stirring declaration
that timid measures were almost treason, and
that we must not look for the safety of the
nation to those soft-shell conservatives whose
conservatism consists in having no eyes
except in the backs of their heads. He
eulogized the draft as the first evidence of
national vigor and purpose in the war, and
deprecating the efforts of some governors and
other functionaries to avoid it by begging for
lime to volunteer. His remarks were loudly
applauded throughout.
A machine having been invented and put in
operation, for clipping treasury notes, the ser
vices of the large number of women now en
gaged in that business at the department will
not be required much longer. Heavy pressure
is being brought to bear, of course, to retain
them, but it is understood they will all be
speedily discharged. Complaints have been
made from time to time, in the local papers
and elsewhere, that numerous secessionists
bad found occupation among these women,
but it is believed that all justly charged with
secession sympathies were weeded out some
time ego,
The cabinet had a meeting to-day, and the
general feeling over public affairs was deci
dedly more hopeful than for some time past.
The is understood to have said that
the crisis is past, and that the dread point of
danger turned.
Recent political arrests are jus-ified solely
cn the ground that the course of the parties
anededwas such as to discourage enlist
ments. The government does not in
tend nor desire to be understood
as intending to interpose any obstacle to the
freest criticism of pupllc measures. Its poli
cy in suppressing, rebellion is regarded as a
legitimate subject of popular discussion, but
the rebellion itself must not be defended or
government measures opposed to the preju
dice of the recruiting service.
Gen. Slough, late of New Mexico, formerly
of Cincinnati, having failed through mere
omission of confirmation by the Senate, has
been rc-appointed brigadier-general and sent
down to Alexandria as military governor.
The city of Alexandria has been in great dis
order ofting to the passage of large numbers
undisciplined soldiers. Gen. Slough will soon
bring order out of confusion:
The following appointments have been
made under the internal revenue law:
for Minnesota, Ist district collector, John A.
Hall, of Mankato; for assessor, Geo. W.
Baker, of Rochester. 2d dcstrict collector,
Thos. G. Jones, ot Avoca; assessor,-A- G. O.
Morrison, of Pinched.
From information received from various
quarters thousands of men hare passed over
into Virginia, principally from the eastern
counties of Maryland. An entire company of
cavalry left Montgomery county, oa the Poto
mac. last week, and squads are constantly
moving into Virginia.
New York, Aug. 26.—A New York Times
correspondent states that ‘‘the portion of
McClellan’s army, which embarked at York
tewn, has already arrived at Alexandria, Two
corps under the command of Gen. Franklin,
which embarked at Fortress Monroe on Fri
dav, arrived at Alexandria to-day. It is also
reported that another corps will come to the
some place to-morrow. In fact, appearances
irdicate that the entire army of the Potomac,
excepting Gen. Porter’s corps, which went to
Fredericksburg last week, will make Camp
California—the old camping ground, situated
i two miles and a half from Alexandria—a tem
porary rendezvous.
It is the opinion here that the troops now
at Alexandria will, in the course of a day or
two, proceed to join Pope’s army.
I am informed that Kearney's division,
which arrived at Alexandria about the middle
of last week, took pan iu an engagement
which occurred near Warrenton yesterday.
The new regiments are daily pouring into
Alexandria, and every day they are sent for
ward to join the army.
The New York limes’ Washington dispatch
says;
Acting Adjutant Murdock, of the 63th Ohio,
committed suicide last sight at Alexandria,
by blowing bis brains out with a pistol. He
was ill with fever, but was not thought to be
delirious till the fatal deed was committed.
The Herald’s Warrenton Junction corres
pondent ears:
“ Burnside's troops are here. If the new
levies were ever needed, It Is at this time.
Gen. Pope Is still held to be equal to any
emergency. The crippled but indomitable
Bunks is still with his command, and Mc-
Dowell has an opportunity to wipe away a
bloodv recollection within cannon shot of
Bull Run, for he Is active and everywhere

The Rappahannock correspondent of the
New York Tribune says:
“The greatest crisis ot this war occurred
between Thursday morning and Saturday
night. It is passed and we are safe. j
Our army is safe. The nation is safe; for 1

'Washington, August 26.—Passengers from

which our forces were successful, having

supervision of the local commanders where they
may be found: and in case of a draft being made
by their respective Sta.es, an eqnal proportion
will be drawn from persons thus enrolled. Per

Capt. Malbon, of tho steamer Acacia, has

the list of saved much larger than at first sup-

the only lady passenger that was eaved.
Mrs. Owen was the wife of Robert Dale Owen,
of New Harmony, Indiana, Mrs. Richardson
was the wife of Capt. Richardson of the 53d

men saved were soldiers. Archie Campbell,
Robert Cothron, W. L. Svi, Jas. Ragoa and

to Holmes & Son, St. Louis. The Illinois

The guerillas would also have almost their
entire strength in the engagement, and their
defeat and dispersion would virtually end

was not at Greenfield, and the bauds of Coffee
and Quantrell fled on. The Arkansas border
alone promised safety, and that was gained as
sueedily as possible. General Blunt having
found further pursuit useless, ’had sent

quiet. In Arkansas, Coffee and Rains have

iARL RUSSELL &M THE
WAR.
BRITISH NEUTRALITY TO CONTINUE.
Farther Point, Ang. 26.—8y the steamer
Hibernian, which passed thispolnt this morn
ing we have received the following highly in
teresting letter, written by Earl Russell iu
reply to a dispatch from Mr. Se ward :
EARL RUSSELL TO Mb. STUART.
Foreign Office, London, July 23 th, ISS2.
Sib ; I have left hitherto unanswered and
unnoticed the dispatches of ifr. Seward,
which Mr. Adams delivered more than a
month ago. I have done so partly because
the military events referred to in it were, in
the opinion of Her Majesty’s government, far
from being decisive, and partly because there
was no proposal In it in which Her Majesty’s
government was called upon to come to any
conclusion.
Events subsequent to the date of Mr. Sew
ard’s letter, have shown that Her Majesty’s
government, in its opinion on these points,
was not mistaken. Victories have been gain
ed, reverses have followed, positions nave
bi en reached in the near neighborhood of the
capital of the confederates, and these positions
have been again abandoned. These events
have been accompanied by great loss of
life in battle and in the hospitals, while
such measures as the confiscation hill
have passed through both houses of Con
gress, and with the proclamations of Gen.
Butler at New Orleans, been evidence
of the increasing bitterness ot the strife.
The approach of a servile war so much Insisted
upon by Mr. Seward in his dispatch, only fore
warns us that another element of destination
may be added to the loss of property and
waste of industry which already afflicts the
country so lately prosperous and tranquil.
Nor on the other point to which I have ad
verted, have I anything new to say. From
the moment that intelligence first reached this
country that nine States and several millions
oi .inhabitants of the great American Union
had seceded and had made war on the govern
ment of President Lincoln, down to the pres
ent time, Her Majesty’s government has pur
sued a friendly, open and consistent course.
They have been neutral to the two parties to
a civil war. Neither the loss of
raw mateiial of manufacture 60 neces
sary to a great portion of our people, or
insults personally heaped upon the British
name in speeches and newspapers, nor a rigor
beyond the usual practice of. nations with
which the Queen’s subjects - attempting to
break loose from the blockading of the South
ern porta have been treated, have induced her
Majesty’s government to swerve one inch
irom. impartial neutrality. At this moment
they have nothing more at heart than a. wish
to see that consummation which the Prealent
eyeaks of in his answers to the Governors of
eighteen States, namely, the bringing of this
unnecessary and injurious war to a speedy and
satisfactory conclusion.
As to the course of opinion in this country,
the President is aware of that perfect freedom
to comment upon all public events in this
country, the invariable practice sanctioned by
law and approved by the universal sense of
the nation, I am, «fcc-,

THE PRESIDENT’S LETTER TO MB. GREELEY.
Friends of freedom occupying high posi
tions under the government regard the presi
dent’s letter to Mr. Greeley as a step forward.
Tbc-y say that it indicates that he has the
question of emancipation under serious con
sideration, and that ho will, so soon‘as he
ebftll be convinced that such aa act will has
ten tbe hour of triumph over the rebellion,
free oil the slaves in the laud.
It is remarked that the points discussed by
Mr. Greeley in the letter to which the presi
dent responds, are carefully evaded, and that
tbe president deals, as Is his wont, in general
ities, and commits himself as little as possible
to a policy. The fear is expressed, not that
he will not reach the right conclusion but that
he will reach it too late.
DB. DROTTNSON WITH THE PRESIDENT.
Dr. O. A. Brow-neon, the eminent Catholic,
and editor of Jirownsotfs Review, had an inter
esting conference with the president on Satur
day. The questions of emancipation and col
onization were discussed at length. Dr.
Browneon agreed with the president on the
subject of colonization, bat urged emancipa
tion as a means of saving the country, and us
a step which must be Taken before coloniza
tion on a large scale could become practicable.
The talk of the president was in a hopeful
strain. He said that he was not fully persui
ed that it was yet lime to proclaim emancipa
tion, bat Dr. Brownsoa infers from the tenor
of his remarks, that if the next battle in Vir
ginia results in a decided victory for our arms
a proclamation emancipating the slaves of
rebels in North, Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Lou
isiana, Texas, and Arkansas, will be forthwith
issued.
As he was leaving the room Dr. Brownsoa
ssked the president If he could give him any
definite expression of opinion in regard to the
t ; me when emancipation would be proclaimed,
neon which the president took up ft news
paper and read from it his letter to Mr.
Gr. eley.
COMMISSIONER OF AFRICAN COLONIZATION.
Senator Pomeroy of Kansas has been, ap
pointed commissioner of African colonization
by the president, and is to have, as his repre
sentative, exclusive jurisdiction in the prem
ises. Colonization transports are to be fur
nished, and rendezvoused at different Atlantic
ports. A proclamation will be issued the
free colored people of the United States la a
few days, by Senator Pomeroy, under the
authority of the president, offering them the
aid of the government, and invoking their
assistance and co-operation in carrying out
the scheme for the benefit of both the
white and the colored population of the
country.

Secretary Stanton . is reported to have
said that a draft will certainly be mode on the
Ist of September, if for no other reason than
to assert the national majesty, and show the
power of the nation to command its subjects

INDIAN TROUBLE Ef ARKANSAS PREVENTED.
The Indian bureau has received Infor
mation from its agents at Upper Arkan
sas that they barely escaped an outbreak
of the Indians, caused by the action of the
officer In charge of Fort Lamed in
stopping a train en route for Port Lyon,
with goods for the Indians in that agency. He
bad told those whom he saw that he should
stop the goods and have them distributed
therf, andlf the agent did not come would
distribute them himsdt e
This information spread like wud-fire
through the country, and soon large numbers
of warrirrs, belonging to the different trices,
assembled about tne fort. The officer in fault,
on bearing that the commander of the United
States forces was coming to Port Lamed, im
mediately left, carrying with him all the
papers which might traveled to information
as to the persons who had nearly succeeded
in creating sn Indian war.
Humors as to Gen. Mr CleTlan—"Disa
greement with Gen. BEallecK.—-Chan
ges of Command.
Fortress Moxros, August 22,1862.—Yes
terday Gen. McClellan spent much of his time
at tbe Point, in citizen’s dress, observing
what was going on, but apparently without
wishing to attract the attention of the army
of stragglers, so abundantly recruited from
the anny of tbe Potomac. There are various
rumors concerning his future position and
movements. One is that he will be relieved
from active duty, either by his own request or
the will oi the government. Another assigns
birn to a command in co-operation with Pope,
and another still imputes to him the intention
to resign. The army of the Potomac, as we
have known it, has made its history, and is a
thing of the pact. Gen. McClellan cannot be
otherwise than, for the time, at least, affected
by the feet.
Rumor asserts that a disagreement has
arisen between him and Gen. HiUeck, from,
whom he receives his orders. That a differ
ence has arisen between them as to the policy
of evacuating the Peninsula, is quite certain.
Gen. McClellan believed he could yet go to
Richmond by the route he had traveled the
last five months, and asked the privilege of
making another trial. Gen. Halleck replied,
that be bad his orders and was expected to
.obey them. It is not improble that Gen.
Halleck thinks that Gen. McClellan has taken
mote time in executing the order to evacuate
the Peninsula than was necessary. Tne order
bears date early ia Angnst, and nearly or
quite twenty days have been consumed in
carrying it into effect. The last thing that
Gen. McClellan did was to protest against it,
and receive peremptory and spirited reitera
tipn of the order. Three days after,his entire
force and all the proptrtyof the army were
this side of tbe Chickahominv.
That there should he so many stragglers
does not appear to me to he a necessary con
sequence. That hundreds' and thousands of :
men should have broken away from their
regiments, should he wandering about, with
out rations or purpose, seems remarkable,
unless there has been a total relaxation of dis
cipline in the army. I said yesterday that the ;
army would profit by a season of rest, under
layering influences. It absolutely requires
not only rest, but reorganization. This, lam
told, will speedily follow. I understand that
new corps and divisions are to be formed, and '
new commanders given them. Gen. Foster,
now at Newbern, so much distinguished under
Gen. Burnside, will, it is said, be placed at the
head of a corps. Some of the most distin
guished brigade commanders are to have di
visions ; and many other changes, it is said,
are contemplated, that wiil remold’and revive
the remnants of the army of the Potomac, and
bring into the field a new army—an army of
veterans, under tried leaders. •
The embarkation at Newport News, Hamp
ton and Old Point is going on briskly to-day.
I hear It said that Gen. Keyes’ corps will be
left in this vicinity.
