the I.ai.n Campaign n Failure.

Sept. D.-Terry and Crook are much eS-
over the newspaper attacks which
pour in upon them with each mail. and
are already bending their shoulders under
the weight of the public condemnation.
All they say in reply IL ! have done my
They at length acknowledge that
there Is scarcely = hope Of striking the In
dams this year-an idea long entertained
BY every clear-headed man In their army.
Sheridan states In his general order that
the campaign must close by October 18th
at least. TO which time We may confidently
look for slow marches aud no lighting
other than with . handful Of redskins here
and there.
Under cross-exAmination. the scout who
reported q large village below Glendine
creek Acknowledges that the account was
very much exaggerated. No village was
found. but the marks OF a camp several
DAYS old were visible. and instead Of l,o0O
men there might have been between l0o
and 800 men. The whole story looks
hshy. and may arise from = desire to prove
wages earned. The fact Is that no one be
lieyes there are many Sioux In this VI
cinity, and many regard this yarn. and
the subsequent hubbub over IL at head
quarters, as an attempt TO prove activity
and suspend Judgment In the States. Had
there been even a large force OF the enemy
around there. they are now undoubtedly
far away. for every opportunity Of escape
has been given them. For instance. the
news which fathered the present move
meut arrived ON the 25th. A tremendous
amount Of headquarters business was
transacted. but no night march was made.
On the 2Gth Terry moved leisurely down
the river. twenty miles distant, n
campcd, the steamboats, meanwhile lying
moored 10 the bank. To-day the Yellow
stone and Carroll began to ferry the
troops across. and here We are still, ut
G:30P NJ, with orders TO move out ut Z
and camp some four or i've miles back
another t~wenty-four hours added tn tho
many already lost. General Terry Ia pop
ular a. a man, but IL losing caste a. q sol
der, for even his friends begin TO apollo
gize for, instead Of denying. mistakes made.
The steamers Carroll and Yellowstone
leave for Fort Buford tomorrow. 10 ~
turn Immediately with material for con-
structing two new posts At the mouth OF
Tongue and Big Horn rivers.
GENERAL TERRY's CAMP. NEAR u YEL-
LowsroSE. August 30, via bismarck, ID.
T., September i.--No Indians yet and no
prospect Of finding any. On the 9th we
marched five miles inland from the ferry
ing point, making an almost dry camp.
Next day We got away with about twenty
one miles. but ON the next seventeen were
all we could manage. leaving US about
twenty miles from Glendine creek, the OBJ
%iec,iyc point. Notwithstanding the mar
yelous accounts Of Sioux To be found by
Inc Thousand, ON this side of the river, We
have not come across the track o. even
