Advcca from Gen. Cnoog's camp On the
South Fork ct the Tongue River are received
mp to Jnly a3. The maiu body Of the enemy
is believed to have taken to tho Big Horn
Mountains, about 10 Or 10 miles from CnooH'a
present camp. Tint officer will not await
tile arrival Of TKnnr's command before
making an attack, but>with his force of
1,too men will probably move on tho
Indiana as aoon rs TEnnY Is near
enough at hand to DO In readiness
to cooperate and follow up, the presumption
being that the Indians will make stand
ngainst ono of the columns, while they
would be likely to retreat before tho united
forces Of CnooK and IInnY aud thus nyoid q
decisive engagement. The death Of Mr.. l..
7. RloHAnpsoN, correspondent Of the

from. Cheyenne. The body was found scalp

that mnny Of the Senators who voted
with tho minority on the question ol
