THE SIOUX ON THE WAR-PATH.
THEY ARE NET BY THE BOTS IN BLUE
AND ARE ROUTED WITH HEAVY
LOSS!
From the Cheyenne Leader, 18th.


Last week we gave our readers an
account of the dOings of a war party
Northern Sioux, who had passed Fort
Laramie and Fetterman, evidently
bound on one Of their marauding ex-
peditions into the white mans country.
The Indians were pursued by COM
pany of cavalry for several days. but
trail was lost and the soldiers returned
to Fort Laramie.
We have just received authentic in-
information that this war party made
for the Windriver Valley, where they
were at once espied by the Shoshone
scouts, who have, as our readers know,
been organized as irregular cavalry by
Gen: Ord for the protection of that
valley. The Shoshones trailed the
Sioux to their camp about seventy-five
---:l~o ..~-<l.-->--< of Eo,na. nrnun. ond
being re-inforc d by a company Of
cavalry, commanded by Captain Bates,
and the remainder of the ShOshone
battalion, under Lieutenant Young,
4th e. s. Infantry, followed the Sioux
for three days and nights. On the
morning Of July 4th the company
overlook the hostile Indians; an at
tack was ordered instantly, and the
Sioux, held at bay, were compelled to
fight and fight they did with will.
The impetuous charge of Capt. Bates
cavalry, supported by the peculiar
tactics Of the Shoshones, under the
gallant Lieutenant Young. soon, how.
ever, turned the tide of battle in our
favor, and the Sioux had to seek safe.
ty in flight, leaving their dead and
wounded (about fifty braves) and over
a hundred horses in the hands of their
victors.
A large number of Shoshones were
wounded, several were killed. Three
soldiers were killed and three wounded.
Lieut.. Young was wounded, but, we
are happy to say, not dangerously.
Thus the brave Young has earned
new laurels as an Indian fighter; he
has again distinguished himself, as on
several former occasions, which have
made him known to and dreaded by
the Sioux as 1.-THE boldest aud bravest
chief of the pale faces
