Suffering.
CHEYENNE, March 2O.-The eastern
and western bound trains which reached
here to-day contained about $50 men and
boys on their way to the Black Hills.
Yesterday a greater number arrived, and
the hotels and boarding houses are
crowded with the fortune hunters, who
tarry here for a day or two to obtain as
much Of an outfit as possible. Among
the idlers in the street are many who la
bored for years in the mines OF California
and Nevada. They hesitate about going
to the Hills. 1t is those who come from
the big cities and towns, and who
are deficient in the knowledge Of
mining, who are confident that there ia
gold in the Black Hills, and who are in
haste to reach the so-called new Eldora-
do. The roads are nearly impasSable,yet
this does not retard the gold seekers, who
on foot, on horseback, and in all sorts Of
conveyances, line the road from Cheyenne
to Fort Laramie, and thence to Custer
City.
The, Indians are not sleeping. Sitting
Bull, Red Cloud, and Spotted Tail are
known to be gathering their forces and
securing all the weapons and ammunition
that they can obtain, and war early In
the spring seems inevitable. Between
5000 and 10000 white men, the majority
Of them we'll armed, are In the hills and
ready to meet the Indians, but the Sioux
do not intend to openly attack the miners.
The miners we're warned when four
miners from Carson City, Nevada, were
recently murdered and robbed by the
Indians on the road 10 Fort Laramie.
Cattle and ponies have been stampeded
and gathered into the camps Of the In
diuns. The miners expect to overcome

safe, for he believed the Turks would not at
tempt 1t again.
For some hour. the battle was almost entirely
between artillery. The valley through which
it was necessary for the Turks pass gain their
object was guarded by two strong Servian batter
les. against which the Turks directed the fire of
three OF their batteries.
The fight continued three hours with no advan-
tage for either side. The Turks then reinforced
their artillery with three more batteries and adj
vanced, the fire becoming tremendous. The Ser
vians made fine struggle and brought up anoth-
er battery But 10 spite OF all their efforts the
Turks steadily advanced. In the meaDtinie the
Turkish Infantry was busy. From Alexinatz

Members of the various Sabbath Schools of
this city participated in an excursion to Peak
Island, Portland Harbor, on Friday last-leaving
Portland at about nine A. NJ, thence proceeding
by steamer to the Island. The day was pleasantly
spent by the company in fishing, boating, eating
and wandering about the island, which is one Of
the most attractive gems of Casco Bay. After a
sojourn of few hours on the island, many pro-
ceeded to the city and visited the State Fair ano
exhibition grounds until the time of leaving of
the T. Nj. train on the return trip, at twenty min
utes past five. The occasion was one OF unailoy ed
pleasure, and all were ready to vote the excursion
complete success. From two to three hundred
excursionists went from this city, accompanied by
the Hallowell Cornet Band, which furnished most
excellent music at intervals throughout the day.
Messrs. Masters & Livermore have recently
greatly improved the appearance of their rich
building at the head Of kennebec Row, Water
st, eet, in this city, by removing the unsightly
wooden shutters, giving the walls fresh color ng
and the trimmings much neeIed coat of paint.
There was a good attendance at City Hall, on
Sabbath evening, consider the subject of tenn
perance, aud interesting addresses were made BY

generally.
