On Thursday the. Indian “Senate

anticipating the intended ®etion of the

fact in open Senate, but the radical

over the Senate, locked the door of the

The operations of the Cuban patri-

known that the agents of the Spanish
government mingle among them, and

the 4th of Jantinry, 1869,1n the town

burned, said to be a witch; another
woman was flogged most cruelly for the

The mere annunciation of this deed

and sorrow and covering with dread
the défenders and pdrpetrators of the

of the affair: Regarding the first,
which was communicated to the press,
the missing of an ox was the cause of
the tragedy. A woman who professed
to bes witdh, was wsked to reveal the
whereabouts of the animal, which she
failed todo; she was taken and hang to
a tree, shot at, and then plunged into
the flames until she expired. The body
was buried in the cemetry, but on the

The character of radicalism is nicely

who hold the reins of power, are ready
at all times, to enforce any iniquitous

Fight with Indians.
“Omaha, May 18—A wagon train
of the 5th cavalry arrived from Fort
M’Pherson yesterday, under com-
mand of Lieut. Forbush, and report
that seven companies of the 5th caval-
ry, under Gen. Carr, while moving
from Kansas towards Fort M"Pherson,
struck a camp of about five hundred
Cheyennes. A fight ensued, and the
Indians were badly defeated, leaving
25 warriors on the field and carrying
off a large number of wounded. Gen.
Carr lost three men killed and one of
Chihuahua and Neuova Leon are
equally alarming in regard to Indian

these frontier states have alrendy lost

counts of another battle between the
Spanish troops and the insurgents, It
took place on May 3, at Las Miras,
The Spaniards numbered 1,200, and
were under command of Lesca.
The two first assaults were repulsed
by the Cubans The third was
very defermined, and the Cubans be-
gan to retrart, when Quesada ordered
his rear guard to the front. They ad-
vanced, driving the Cubans into the
front ranks of the enemy. A hand to
hand combat ensued, in which the
butchery was horrible.
The Spaniards finally gave away
and retreated, but in good order. Their
loss is estimated at 160 kilied and 300
wounded ; that of the Cubans 200 kill-
ed and a proportionate number of
wounded. After the fight the rebels
marched to Sun Miguel and burned
the town, in the sight of the retreating
Spaniards.
It is generally believed that the rev-
olutionary leaders have changed their
policy in the field, and in the future
will fight, instead of retreating to the
mountains on the appearance of any
considerable - force of government
troops.
In the battle at Alta Gracia, which
‘took place on the 1st instant, the Cu-
ban loss was 200, and that of the Span-
inrds 180 killed and wounded.
The Spaniards here regard the re-
sult of these actions as fatal to the re-
bellion, but the Cubans are jubilant
over them as the first great successes
of the war for independence. &
