UNCLE SAM AND THE INDIANS
Colonel Bacon Mot so Badly Roasted..
Waker, Minn, Oct, 8.—Sounds of confi:ct bave come from Bear Island all day, but people are still in ignorance of the rea! situation on the ba&le ground where Geo Bacon and his men bad their encounter with the Pillager Indians Wednesday. Up te an early hour yeeterday morning there were many grounds for fearing Gen, Bacon ard his command had been annihilated. No dizeet word bas been received from any man wke participated in the first baule. Early thie morniog, however, the firing’wus re sumed and it has continued practieally al! day. This makes it eertain that General Bacen’s command is still oo earth aad iv fight:mg trim. It is oow believed that the soldiers are evtrenched and in a pesition to holW@ out —until reisforcements reach them.
Liewtenunt-Colonel Harbach, of the Third Setantry, reached bere late yesterday afterno00, and immediately started! for Bear Wiaad. [tis thirty nsiles distant, and progress will necessarilyy be slow. Ne courier has reached bere from Bear Beland and it ixinpossible to learn:the result of yesterday’s fight. A posse of citizens succeeded im landing on Bear Island, se- cured the bodies of four ofthe men killed in Weduesdar’s battle and brought away nine wounded soldiere. The conditien-of Bacon’s tnep,even if they: are safe from aonibilaton, must be depidrable. They are ill expplied with overeoats and bho- kets. They bave notents. Their food supplies were short whem» they lauded, and they were m no shape to stand a Jeng Biege.

The natives of this place were coneerned

Some native girls had been carzied off by Simbodas as yrisoners, and the Capiain of the warship endeavored ta obtaim their release, but all to no avail, aad the chic! was taken toTedigu for trial before the British Commissioner.
While on tho Mohawk the. chief became very violent acd he was piaged in irons, but a few days-later, after being transferred to H. M. S., Soldfioch, he tried to escape by jumping overboard. ‘VYhe ships boats were promptly lowered and he was returo-
