The men behavad splendidly.
The rebels are in full flight.
I am sorry to say I have not got Riel.

'
a flag of truce, and handed me a
+ > letter from Riel, saying :
‘* If you magsacre our families we shall massacre the prisoners.”
{ sent for answer that if he would put the womep and children in one place, and Jet me know where it was, not a shot should be fired on them.
I then saw my chance and ordered a general advance. The men _ responded nobly, being splendidly led by the ofticers and Colouel Straubenzie. They drove the enemy out of rifle pits and forced their way across the plain and seized the houses.
We are now masters of the place, and my fi ress will bivouac here right in the heart of the action.
Shortly after the despatch of my reply to Riel, Ashley came back with another message from Pail as foliowa :—

Pouvdmaker Vanishes — Prairie Klazing. BarrLerorp, May 13.
Your correspondent was out with the scouts to-dev, but found that Poundmaker had vanished. Speculation is rife here as to his whereabouts. Some think he crossed the Saskatchewan; others imagine he only moved into the heavy weod. Before leaving he fired the prairie and woods. A scouting party starts to morrow to fol- low his trail. Pallisades here have been strengthened and rifle pits have been dug. The wounded in Col. Otter's last fight are doing well. T he prairie is all in a flame to the south- west of here.

The Situation Out West. Cateary, May 13.
The Indians around Edmonton are greatly excited.
An Indian who had joined Big Bear went to White Fish Lake, aud was going to break into the Hudson Bay store. He declared that the country and everything in it he- longed to the Indiane, and ne was going to have hig own. Loyal indians standing by said that if he broke the door he would be
shot. He persisted, and was immediately killed. ‘The loyalists then fled for their lives.
Po.ice scouts bring the news that settle- ments everywherefhave been destroyed.
A start was to be made for Fort Pitt last Sunday,
Gen. Strange is making preparations as quickly as possible, as it is becoming more evident every day that the campaign in this region will be a serious one.
Big Bear has a large force, and without doubt, the apparently loyal Indiana are with him at heart and will strike when the time comes.
