Otoe City.
- We had the pleasure last week of vis
iting this place, and from personal obser
vation, we are prepared to say, as a pub
lic journalist, what we have refused in
regard to many towns in Nebraska.
on last Sunday evening an affray occurred
about a mile below that place between a
man ly the name of Blackwood and another
named Lamb. It seems that the difficulty,
arose about a disputed claim. We under
stand that Lamb under the influence of
liquor, went to the house of the former; a
dispute arose, when threats were made
and blows followed. Blackwood struck
Lamb with an axe, and the latter refu
sing to leave the premises, was shot by
Blackwood, the ball lodging in the abdo
men. Un Monday morning Blackwood
gave himself up to the civil autliorities.-
Lamb's recovery is doubtful.
we understand that there was also a
stabbing i. flair in Florence, on the 4th of
July between a man named Kingsley, and
a blacksmith of that place, in which the
mand is on foot it will be impossible fur
him to pursue the Indians, who are well
uiounitd.
This may looked upon as the commence
ment of the Cheyenne war. Col. Sum
ner hus gone out after this tribe, but one
portion of his command is on the Arkan
sas nnd the other on the Platte, two hun
dred miles apart, so that the Indians have
a fine chance of slipping in between nnd
getting in his rear, which, it appears,
thev have done. As the emigration cross
ing the plains this year is very large,
horridly inquired of those he met if they
did not believe the comet had struck.
Considerini the fact of these wonderful
occurrences happening on the 13th of
June the day set by a German astrono
mer for the destruction of the earth it is
not to bo wondered nt that a somewhat
credulous man should entertain this idea,
placed in these singular and appalling
circumstances.
Beyond the barns of Mr. Rowe, the
course of this whirlwind is marked dis
tinctly to the Oswezo River, by upturned
trees, here and there through orchards
and wood lots, but after getiing about one
mile east of Mr Rowe s residence its

vision aud as if nature intended to make
the valley below, the inott enchanting in
the world, your eye rests upon an abund
nut and luxuriant growth of yiung timber
which is exhilarating to the senses, and
gladdens the heart of him who can ap
precinte the pleasure of a change from
the monotonous scenery of the prairie
and in addition to this, the lavish hand of
nature has added another auxiliary, to
cap the climax in this enchanting spot
and make it perfect. Innumerable cold
crystal springs which unite in one clear,
sparkling rill, meanders through the
deep, dark forrests of this little valley to
the levee of the city, and then empties in
to the turbid wate-s of the Missouri. This
valley has no equal that we have seen in
Nebraska, for sublime scenery and pic
turesque grandeur it is all the most ar
dent admirer of the romantic and beauti
ful could wish.
The enterprising proprietors, Messrs.
Hall, Dtxmom & Be sett, have ex
hibited good taste in locating the Main
street of the city, through the centre of
the valley, which will add much to the
Iudlan Hostilities on the Plains.

We have just received a letter from

post.

weeks ago, with six companies of cavalry

Under the inanagemeat of its present

that the Indians have slipped down be

The Cheyennes are amongst the bold
est and most warlike on our Western pra
iries, and if once fairly aroused, will be
difficult to subdue. They number about
one thousand warriors, and will doubtless
be joined by many young Sioux braves,
with whom they are closely connected.
As there are a great many emigrants
crossing the plains this season, it is very
much to be feared that we shall soon hear

Nta Fort Rilet, June 9, 1S57.
Ma. xiToa: Our quiet community
has just been thrown into considerable ex
citement by the news that the Indians,
supposed to be the Cheyennes, have at
tacked a small party of emigrants alxuit
80 miles west of Fort Riley, and killed
four men and wounded two men aud one
woman. One of the survivors, Mr. A. P.
Weaver, has reached this placo aud

About 80 miles from the Post on the

The whirlwind passed on, nnd next
struck the dwelling house of Mr. J nines
Cole, tore out the gable end, and took up
the building, actually turned xt halj round
on its foundation I Incredible as this ap.
rears, it is strictly true ; aud .'ihe front
door of the house, which formerly opened
towards the street, now opens into a lot
ttdioiuinir the yard. Mr. and Mrs. Cole
were absent at tne nine, leaving iwo win-
dren in the house. It may well be sup
posed that on their return, they were con
siderably astonished at the appearance of
things, thouuh overioyed to find their
children unharmed, except from fright
Tho wind having spent its fury and
malice nt this point, departed on its jour
nev to the eastward
The orchard of Mr. Oliver Foster, was
next in its course. This was comp etely
prostrated, some of the tree taken up and
tossed hither and thither, at the sport of
the destroyer, and the tops of the trees
sent flying through the air at a great dis
tance.
The whirlwind having thus executed its
puriMso in destroying properly, next made
an attempt upon hf ', with but too fearful
success. A German teamster, named
Martin Schwader, iu the employ of Mr.
Furniss, who owns a saw mill iu that re
gion, was loading stoves in a wagon.
Old Mr. Furniss was handing him the
staves, while the teamster took them and
stowed them away iu the wagon. The
attention of the two men was attracted by
a singular noise, when, looking upwards,
they saw a common barn-shovel flying
through the air over their htads, at about
thirty feet from the ground, and twirling
around in the m st singular manner.
Naturally enough their eyes were riv
eted upon this remarkable phenomenon,
and the next instant a small maple tree,
standing nearly iu length from the wagon,
was caught by the wind and the top of it
thrown directly across the wagon, knock
ing the tenmter down upon the staves,
and throwing Mr. Furniss to the ground.
The latter was but slightly injured, and in
some ten minutes help was at hand. The
top of the tree was cut away, and the un
fortunate German found lying on the staves
which were covered ly his blood from the
mouth and head. He was taken up in
sensible, and medical aid procured tr m
this city as soou as possible. At the last
accounts he was stilj insensible, and it is
thought he cannot survive.
After this bloody exploit, the tornado
sped on to a wood lot of about ten acres,
owned by Gilbert &. Penfield. Through-
