Custer,s Next Expedition.

bismarck, D. T., Letter, March III
Telegraphic instructions were received
to-day by General Custer, at Fort Lin
coin, authorizing the formation of anoth-
er expedition to the Black Hills, of which
the details are not further known than
that General Custer goes in command,
and that it is to De composed Of the
Seventh cavalry and due proportion OF
infantry, with perhaps battery Of Cat
ling guns, 1t will move from Fort Lin.
coin as soon as the weather will permit:
but owing to the heavy fall Of snow it is
believed the depth Of the streams to bt
crossed will prevent an early departure
1t is probable that to the forces moving
from Fort Lincoln there will be joined de
tachments from other points. and tina
this entire force will not halt at tn
Black Hills, but, leaving small fore
there, will proceed westward and explor
the Big Horn Mountains and the count.

The Labors Of the Lecturer OF the
state Grange, Hon. e. Ayres.

DUNpAs, Mimi, March %, 1873.
Editor Anti Monopolist
DEAR SIR AND BROTHER: wish to tell
the PATTI ons, through your Grange De-
partment, of a Grange feast that Halle
wood Grange got up for the entertain
ment of its members and some OF the
surrounding Oranges; So that other
Oranges may 60 and do likewise; and |
am satisfied that they will never regret it.
Our feast was not one Of oysters and
turkey and such things, as we are IN the
habit Of having on such occasions. 1t
was an intellectual feast, delivered by the
Hon. E. Ayres, Worthy Lecturer OF the
State Grange of Minnesota.
Brother Ayres exceeded our e1pecta'
tions in the fluent and able manner II
which he delivered his eloquent and IN
structive lecture. He held the audience
with deep and unbroken interest and w
we're all satisfied that We had voted for ,
good honest farmer when We voted fol
him for Lieut.. Governor. We are sat
is6ed that he is the poor mans friend.
Yours truly, GILBERT FISH.

John and William Horn, of Dryden,

acres the past season. Like the machine
in every respect, and two binders can do
as much work on an Edward as four can

Gates to the Southern fields, fought his last fight
at Camden, and fell into the hands Of the ene-
my, with the Lieutenant Colonel OF the Bat
talon, Joseph Vaughan. Subsequently, Major
Patten served as the Representative of the State
in the 4th Congress. Major Caleb P. Bennett,
who WAS Lieutenant OF the seventh company
Of the Contientals, WAS Governor OF Delaware
from 1888 to 1887. Capt. Allen McLane, whose
daring services en.balligh the records of our
history, Was the father of that distinguished
Delawarean, Hon. LOUIS McI4ane, Secretary
of State, Secretary of the Treasury, and
Minister to England. Among them all,
however, none WAS brayer than Robert Kirk
wood. and none more worthy, but he died. in
the words of Henry Lee, "as he had lived, the
brave, meritorious, unrelodrded kirkwood." He
fell in the defeat of St. Clair by the Indians and
though the State of Virginia had presented him
with a grant of 1000 acres OF land in the North
West Territory" Ohio-his own State did
little to reward his services or perpetuate his
memory.
Imperfect as such record is, Col Whitley
admits with regret that little more than this can
be told OF the Revolutionary soldiers of Della
wsre. This is the substance of what is preserved
concerning them. Fortunately their story is
one Of patriotic honor, and what we may know
of it comes glad and welcome to our recall.
