. History of Greene county, Illinois: its past and present. esent division. OTHER INDIAN TROUBLES. Before leaving this part of the narrative, we will narrate briefly theIndian troubles in Minnesota and elsewhere by the Sioux Indians. In August, 1862, the Sioux Indians living on the western borders ofMinnesota fell upon the unsuspecting settlers, and in a few hours mas-sacred ten or twelve hundred persons. A distressful panic was theimmediate result, fully thirty thousand persons fleeing from their homesto districts supposed to be better protected. The military authoritiesat once took active measures to punish the savages, and a large numberwere killed and captured. About a year after, Little Crow, the chief, was killed by a Mr. Lampson near Scattered Lake.

Big Eagle, an Indian now in confinement at Davenport, Iowa, will, upon the receipt of this order, be immediately released from confine-ment and set at liberty. • By order of the President of the United States.
