THIRTY, July 3l.--As intimated In our last, we
left Fort Rice on the 10th instant, and arrived AZ
this camp on the oath, marching about one hun
dred miles in six days. Here (Heart rivers) we
laid over one day and spent the time In fitting
out a light train, az the pack mules proved a
failure.
At2P. NJ, on the 26th, about all the available
troops Of the command were on the march, With
no shelter but rubber blankets and oYorcOAts, and
only hard bread, bacon, sugar. and coffee for the
inner man. Nearly all our baggage and sup
plies, including tho Idahoes, were left here.
Aud the boys were out on a real Indian hunt, for
once not to be disappointed, as in six days the
troops under General Suy have marched one
hundred and sixty miles, found the stronghold
Of the enemy, fought "A battle Of five hours, COM
pletely routing aud driving two thousand hostile
Indians, destroying their camp, consisting Of an
immense number Of lodge-poles buffalo robes.
and large amount Of dried meat, besides Othe r
savage furniture, worth little 10 white man, but
priced highly by the Indians.
Afier having been in the saddle for nearly forty
eight consecutive hours, on the 2Sth, near noon,
the scouts brought back the news that the Indians
IN large numbers were on the bluffs just ahead Of
us and we must prepare for battle.
The story was hardly credited at first, for the
talk all day thus far had been that We would sec
no Indians. Bnt doubt was soon dispelled, for
scarcely had liuo Of skirmishers been thrown
out in front and the train closed up when the sharp
crack of rifles convinced all that tho thing was
no humbug.
Now commenced what we should most emphati-
cally call a running fight. The Indians swarmed
like bees around us, riding their ponies all the
while at most furious rate. They would dash
up near our lines, and, when fred upon, skedaddle
in manner that made one feel q contempt for
their bOasted bravery.
Our train moved steadily along, and thus the
fight was kept up till near sundown, the loss on
the side of the enemy being yariously estimated
at from Fifty to one hundred and fifty killed, and
from what we saw and heard in our opinion the
lat er is not far from correct though no one can
tell exactly for they exhibited more bravery in
getting their dead and wounded off the field than
In fighting the battle itself.
Day after tomorrow the command starts Tor

THE IMPENDING BATTLE.

We have the most encouraging reports
from General GRANTS army, and there are
evidences Of grand forward movement in a
very short time. A great battle will probably
take place south of Petersburg during the
present week. Its results may be decisive.
One Of them win be the destruction, and per-
hsps the possession, Of the Danvile or South
aide railroad-the only remaining line of sup
ply and retreat left to General LEE and the
Rebels at Richmond and Petersburg. In view
of this, heavy reinforcements have been for
warded to General GRANT from all parts of
the North, and the one hundred days men
have been prevailed upon to remain In the
field for ten days over their term of enlist
ment. We look for the good news of vic
tory in Eastern Virginia in the course of a
few hours.
