THE SIOUX AT WAR.

1t would seem fiom the following that the
military expedit' on accompanying the North
ern Pacific Surveyors have been twice attack
ed by The Sioux Indians. The Sioux seem to
appreciate the situation, and know that now
Is the time to strike il ever. The advent OF
the iron horse, and the whistle OF the engine,
which will soon echo little canyons OF the
Yellowstone, will be a signal for their de-
parture to more ..congenial and uncivllized
cline, and they will not give up their fayorite
hunting ground without desperate struggle.
We therefore expect to hear of some lively
diminishing between them and the expedi-

CASE OF DEPRAyIrY.-Thec cholera at
Greenville has developed few cases of
monstrous depravity, one of which | will
relate without mentioning names. An
old gentleman, probably nearly seventy
years of age, who lived a mile or two in
the country, and is noted for his recS-
lessness and defiance of the laws of God,
came into town one day, and, passing
down the street, cried out that he in
tended to spread the cholera over the
town. He then went to an undertaken
and wanted to know if he could make
him coffin and what he would charge
The reply was that il he wanted it before
his death he would charge him S25, but
il after, he would only charge 81. He
told him to proceed with the matter but
TO be sure to make it out of two-inch
plank, and leave it open at both ends, so
that if the devil comes in at one end he
could escape at the other. That night
he was stricken down with the cholera,
and by morning he was eorpse.-KHoI-

GOLD IN WYOMING.



We referred in yesterday S issue to the
discovery of rich gold fields in Northern
wyoming, and will now give such par
tlculars as We can, from letter mailed
at Bozeman, Montana.
lime and time again we have heard
the Yellowstone country spoken of as
embracing spot where gold was almost
as common as the country rock it be-
ing also claimed by old hunters that the
name Yellowstone is from the quantities
OF yellow stones thought to be yellow,
gold nuggets-found years ago on its
tributaries by the Indians. We have
still more tangible evidence that gold in
quantities exists on the Yellowstone.
Sir George Guer, an English nobleman,
some fifteen years ago, with eight men,
made an exploring and hunting expedi-
ton through the Yellowstone country,
and, though not seeking it, found gold.
Guer, being after pleasure and not gold,
and fearing that his men would desert
him, left the vicinity of the gold without
making further developments than as
certaining that gold in large quantities
existed IN the beds of the streams, A
Frenchman, who was with Guer, at that
time, has been in Bozeman for five years,
awaiting an opportunity to revisit the
El Dorado found fifteen years ago.
Upon his representations, corroborated
by the testimony of others, number of
the most prominent business men of
Bozeman have organized and outfitted
an expedition to explore the country
known to the Frenchman.
\ company of seven men are en-
campad at the Crow Indian Agency and
will leave for the new gold fields as soon
as the party is sufficiently large to pro-
teet itself against any possible Indian
attacks, although no great trouble from
that source is apprehended.
The locality where the Frenchman
claims the gold can be found is about
two hundred miles south of Bozeman. in
Wyoming Territory, close to Little Wolf
Mountain, and about thirty miles east of
the Yellowstone basin. Another point
Porenpine Creek between BIZ Horn and
Tongue Rivers, wh,re gold is known to
exist. There is also gulch called Bear
Guleh, where "A party of miners were
murdered by the Indians some years ago,
after they had their boxes set and mine
opened The Indians say the boxes and
tools remain as they were when the
miners were killed.
The mystery with which the lamented
Father De Smet enveloped a certain rich
gold country he discovered in this re-
gion, while acting as a missionary among
the Sioux, may soon be solved, and we
may awake one fair morning to find that
Montanians have taken possession of the
gold fields, while We. in Wyoming have
been asleep.

THE RoBBERY AND MATRIMoNY.-
Among the passengers on the stage be-
tween Colfax and Grass Valley, which
was recently robbed, was a young lady
of Gilroy. She went to Grass Valley to
meet her lover, and the wedding arranged
for took place. Both We're happy and so
continued until the next morning, when
the bride claimed that she was crazy,
and knew nothing whatever of the mar
riage that all was oblivion to her after
the robbery, except that she dreamed in
the night that she was carried off by
the robbers. Her manner was excited
one minute she was in tears and another
in smiles. Preacher and neighbors were
called in, and all thought she must be
crazy but in her more lucid moments
she intimated that the miner was mot
so well fixed as she expected to find
him" All agreed that under the cir
cumstanees it would be well if the mar
riage could be annulled but how to do
this was the question. Pending the dis
enssion, the young lady packed up her
Saratoga and left for hoIae The I'M
portant question is yet unsolyed.---Ae-
