train of nearly two hundred wagons, going
through an enemies county for more than
six hundred miles, portion of the time
spent in establishing posts, and leaving the
main route to fight hostile bands, and re-
turning again-all in one season; necessa
rily starting late in order to wait for grass
on which to subsist our teams and yet get
ting through with so little loss of men and
stock. No one but man possessed with
the indomtablc perseverance Of a SuLLY
could do it. Gen. Sully is man that
never says cant" and when he under.
takes job he never backs out.
After leaving Fort Union we strike out
with our trusty guides in front; sometimes
miles away from the river, and out of sight
even Of tile dark outlines Of the bluffs
which skirt it on either side and camp on
some creek we'll known to the guide. Then
again the next camp finds US on the bank
of the river and gorging ourselves with the
muddy liquid as it comes roaring and surg
ing in its toftarous passage from the noun.
Gains to find resting place in the bosom
of the placid Mississippi. 1t may seem
strange, odd to many who don't know when
tell them that the Missouri River water
is the sweetest and the most wholesome
water ever drank from any navigation
stream, the face Of the earth. But it is
even so, and every morning there is uni
varsal filling Of canteens and stinginess
displayed by the boys when asked for
drink through the day by them, remarking
that "this is Missouri water"
In this why we Travelled Until within
some 80 miles of Fort Rice, when, one fine
morning we struck out in northeriy d.
rection-nobody knew whither,--but the
boys couldn't be fooled on one point
they knew that wasn't the direction to Fort
Rice and each one surmised the object of
leaving our course as suited him best. In
my next Will tell you achy we left the
homsward route and what some Of our
boys did in the way of killing buffalo.

Of the dearest blessings which our forefathers
have handed down to us. 1t was purcha sed by
the blood ofmany valiant revolutionary hero

Jefferson, Clay and a " ebster. But dearer.
still to the hearts Of the people is that world
renowned remedy known as Goes Cough
Balsam. 1t cures like magic the most violent
attacks of Group, and is indispensable in every
family of children. Colds, sudden coughs, sore
throat, hoarsness, and inaamed lungs, are
instantly and surely cured by its timely use.
No cough mixture has ever been known that
equals it, which accounts for its great pop.

the rich and poor--phs sicians duggists-and all
who have ever tested it speak in the highest
terms Of its merits. We say to our readers
buy it and try it. 1t costs but 40c. the bottle,

Business is not very active. Severe
losses have occurred to heavy and small
operators within the last fe* weeks, and il
is not by any means clear to the sh, cwdes'
what the next month may bring forth
One thing is clear and that is the prices
Of Grain, Pork and other produce arc SO
high that it will take an immense amount
Of currency to carry our stocks through the
winter and scarcity Of money will neces.
sarily decline the price. The early close of
navigation 1T is now assumed to be closed
though boats are still running-has caught
many dealers with full warehouses, and loss
mus st be their portion. This loss may be
the more serious if any thing all.streetical
or military occurs to put the gold market
down. You can talk with no one who feels
any certainty as to the future. Men talk
about what may or may not come, with the
indifference which is attributed to passeri-
