The INDIAN WAR.-Gen. Sheridan has ar
rived at Fort Cobb with Clusters command,
and in letter to Gen. Sherman, says that he
came upon camp of Kiowas who were friend
ly, but, discovering evidences of treachery
among them, he seized Santanta and Lone
Wolf and threatened to hang them if all the
Kiowas did not repair to Fort Cobb The
Kowas were already coming into Fort Cobb,
and he proposed to punish all of them who
have been concerned in murders. The Cheyen-
mes are very humble, and Gen. Sheridan thinks
that the novel idea Of carrying on the war In
winter time will bring all the hostile tribes to
terms

RIVER News. The ice has entirely dissp
peared from the Potomac. On yesterday
however, it was piled up to the height Of some
eight or ten feet against the upper side OF the
Long Bridge, and presented such formidable
obstruction to navigation there that tow
which had left this city for Georgetown was
compelled to put back Owing TO the late rains,
and the melting of the snow, there Is now
considerable current in the river, aud much
drift wood is coming down from above,
and many boats from this city were out this
morning doing good business in picking up
what, with little drying, will make excellent
winter fuel A party, with small seine,
started out this morning from Fishtown, to
make hauls in the creeks in this neighborhOod.
This is the first attempt at fishing since the
freeze. The lower Potomac fishermen are bus
lily engaged In preparations for the early COM
meneement of their winters operations, and
some of the seines will be dragged during the
current month More shores will be fshed
next spring than for many years past. A large
coasting schooner, in going down the river yes
terday, during the prevalence Of the heavy fog,
ran aground, at high tide, on the flats, opposite
this city, and remains there hard and fast
Many vessels which have been detained here
for some time past by the ice and fogs, left this
morning, and the wharves present to-day u
bare appearance. Large flocks of ducks were
moving about this morning, principally, how
ever, flying in southerly direction.
