BATTLE OF THE LITTLE BIG HORN

CHICAGO, August il. u. Poland.
Captain of the Sixth Infantry, writes from
Headquarters. Military Station, at STANDING
Rock, D. T., under date Of July 24th, to
the Adjutant.G General Department Of Min
ncsota, 81 Paul, giving an Indian account
of the battle of the Little Big Horn on
June 26. The account does not differ es-
sentlaliy from the reports already published.
1t says, however, that Sitting Bull was uei-
ther killed nor personally engaged in the
fight. He remained in the council tent di.
recting operations. Crazy Horse, with a
large band, and Black Moon, were the prin-
cipal leaders on the 18th of June. Kill
Eagle, chief Of the Black Feet, at the
head Of some twenty lodges, was at this
agency about the last Of May. he was
prominently engaged in the battle OF June
25th, and afterwards upbraided Sitting Bull
for not taking an active personal part in
the engagement. Kill Eagle has sent word
that he was forced into the fight, and that
he will return to the agencyif he is killed
for it. The report closes as follows: There

Lake Erie was unusually thick In
warm days of early spring this mass Of ioe
was looscncd around the shores of the lake
and detached from them. During the fore
noon Of tho day named, stiff easterly wind
moved it up the lake. a little before sun
set, the wind chopped suddenly round and
blew gale from the west This brought
the vast field Of ice back acrin with such
tremendous force that it filled in the neck
Of the lake and its outlet, so as to form
very effective dam, that caused remarka-
dminutiou in the outflow Of the water
OF course, it needed but little time for tho
falls to drain off the water below this dam
The consequence was that on the morning
Of the following day the river was nearly
half gone. The American channel had
dwindled to a deep aud narrow creek The
British channel seemed to have been smit-
ten with quick consumption and to be fast
passing away. Far up from the head of
Goat Island out beyond the old Tower to
the deep channel Of the Horseshoe fall, the
water was gone. The rocks were bare,
black and forbddine. The roar Of Niaea-
ra had subsided to moan. This extraor-
dinary syncope Of the waters lasted all the
day, and night closed over the strange
scene. Bat during the night the dam gave
way, and the next morning the deep river
was restored in all its strength, beauty and
majesty .Scribner's Mon'hty.
