*eXpectation, awaited accounts of its pro

A partisan in tinmokank satates that it wvas

hase been fairly set in motion, that the Co.

TEnIU4.E RAVAGES Or CHOLE5A Aw
SMALL Pox Aiura TIEE IitI si.--The St:
Louis Republican has gathered from Majo'
H. Picot, of the American Ft rCompany,
who has just coma from the Indian country,
the following partleulars of the ravages of
the cholc-ra durifig the past two years:
At Pbort Pier fe, in the year 1850, the first
case of cholera occurred on the 4th of July.
Otlt scnses followed this, and the disease
eorith ued to spend until somt. three or four
hundred Missouri Sioux Indians had fallen
viet imis to it.
I'ho ravages of sickness were not
toniiiued to the Intians, It would appear.
The cho!era comininunicated to the cattle;
and Major Picot says that, from his own
knowledge only, some flity heatd of cattle
died of a sickness for which hie cannot
account, unile.s it were cholera. They
were seized suddenly with vomiting and
purging, and in many instances, indeed in
tI., majority of instahdes death ensued
o!ter live or sax hours from the mnanifes.
tatios of the first symptoms.
Vhen the disease was raging most vio
leit ty .winoig the Indi-ans, a council was
hel I, alter whose decision the entire nation
strue: camp, and separated for various
tinarters. A port ion of them tonk refuge
in the miountains, and the remainder jour.
nered mwfirds the North.
'lhe eholera followed the party who had
repaired to the mountains, and continued
conuanit wad ravages among them. 'I'o add
still more to their misfurtunes, tile small-pox
broke cut wnong them about the same time,
:I while It ran its co urse there were from
live to six hundred of their numbers who
loll victims to it. The traders did all that
Loy in their porer to alleviate the sufferings
about. them. They were fortunately well
pry ovbleila.1 w'th vaccine matter, ani Major
l'icaot suaptoses that no less than fifteen to
twenty thouuand indians were vaccinated
bv them to start from the occurrence of the
first case.
The most frightful panic spread itself
anau tg he! 1ud iants on the appearance of
choelera in such a malignant form. Neither
miaerest, nor frienlhip, nor parent age
were suflicient bonds to keep them together
in this tine of allietion. Wives were
ahi :mw idoncied by their husbands, parents by
their ir:ends. The chollers, amid also the
small pix, fingcretd fron July, 185t1. to
Jily, 1W01, ab-t inog in winter to a cons:der
able extent. li that time, numerous
chtdren and heltpleiss woten, and okl ml,
whoit had been suddenly abandoned by those
Ih:t hied hitherto at pp arted them, were
picked tip and taken charge of by the
trailers.
''hae fact may not he without its interest,
that in the pre.tPt year. when the party of
8.onx (cin.ast.i ut one thousand 'aiadhes)
t otit to the Nor I. they fell in with a war
:rty of I:,ackfeet, who uere i scarch of
hie Crow 1 ldianat. ''he '.nux attacked

party. Not ta lamgle one was left to bear
