MA.SSaCRED BY INDIA MS.

SALT LAKE, July "a specia'
correspondent of the Helena (Mon.
tana) Herald, writes from Still Wa
ter, Montana, July q Muggins Tay'
lor, scout for General Gibben, got
here last night direct from Little
Horn river. General Custer found
the Indian camp of 1000 lodges on
Little Horn and Immediately at
tackled the camp. Custer took five
companies and charged the thickest
portion Of the camp. Nothing is
known Of the operations of this de-
tachment, only as they trace it by the
dead. Major Reno commanded the
other seven companies and attacked
the lower portion Of the camp. The
Indians poured in murlerous fire
from all directions; besile the great
er portion fought on horseback. Gus:
ter, his two brothers, nephew and
brother-in-law were all killed, and
not one of his detachment escaped.
Two hundred and seven men were
buried in one place, and the killed is
estimated at 800, with onl y 81 wound
ed. The Indians surrounded Reno s
command, and held them one day in
the hills, cut off from water, until
Gibbons command came in sight,
when they broke camp at night and
fled. The Seventh cavalry fought
like tigers, and were overcome by
mere brute force. The Indian loss
cannot be estimated, as they bore oft
and cached most Of their killed. The
remnant of the cavalry and Gibbons
command are returning to the mouth
of the Littlehorn where steamboat
lies. The Indians got all the arms Of
the killed soldiers. There were sew,
enteen commissioned officers killed
The whole Custer family died at the
head of their column. The exact loss
is not known as both adjutants and
sergeant major were killed. The In
dian camp was from three to foul
miles long, and was twenty miles ~
the Little Horn from its mouth The
Indians actually pulled men off then
horses in some instances. This Is
