right and George Bell arrived in town
yesterday from Columbia District.
They give glowing accounts of the re-
cent discovery on Snow Creek, to
which we heretofore alluded in these
columns. The Vulture mine is prov.
ing richer than the most sanguine an
ticipated. The lead is well defined and
six feet wide. Last week ton and o
half of the ore was packed to the Flor
snce Mill, where it produced 1877
ounces of gold worth 1920. The ore
also contains silver. but the mill is
not fixed to save that metal, which
consequently escaped in the tailings.
Two locations have been made on the
lead. The enc owned by Birthright and
Geary is being worked, and produced
the bullion mentioned.

CHE INDIAN WAR.

A special from Montana brings the
Intelligence of a terrible slaughter of
sroops on the Little Horn river. and
the killing of General Custer Mt the
head of his command. That gallant
officer, whose bravery was never ques-
toned, found camp of two thou
sand lodges of hostile Sioux, and
with five companies of his regi-
.rnent, charged on the thickes st of the
camp, where at the head Of his column,
with his two brothers and nephew he
was surrounded and slaughtered by the
merciless suvages, not one of his brave
men escaping. The gallant Custer
entered the cavalry service early in the
rebellion when mere boy. His
daring courage attracted the attention
of his superior officers, and promotion
followed promotion until at the close
of the war he held the position Of Ma
Tor General. A few months ago be
was called to Washington to testify
relative to post traderships. and his
evidence was so uispleasipg to the
President that he deprived him of his
command, and after several attempts
to prevent him from participating in
the campaign Against the Indians,
finally permitted him to join his reei-
ment. Smarting at the injustice done
him he sought relief on the battle field.
and at the head of his brave detach-
rnent fell a victim to Indian savagery
and Grants vindiciiveness.

and charged the lower portion of the
camp. Custer, his two brothers, It
nephew and II brother-in-law, We're al
killed, and not one of his detach ment
escaped. 207 men are buried in one
place, and the killed are estimated at
800, with only thirty wounded. The
Indians surrounded Reno's command.
and held them one day in the hills. cut
off from water, until Gibbons com
mand came in sight, when they broke
camp in the night and left. The In-
dian loss cannot be estimated. as they
bore away most of the killed. A rem
nant of the Seventh Cavalry and Glib
bon s command are returning to the
mouth of the Little Horn, where steam
boat lies. The Indians got all the
arms Of the killed soldiers. There
were seven commissioned officers
killed. The whole Cnstar family died
at the head of The column.
Further reports confirm this report,
aud say the whole number killed was
315, and that the Indians actually
pulled men off their horses. and
left the battle ground looking like a
slaughter pen.

another mountain, northeast of Us,
there is q small lake that never is
entirely unfrozen.
The sun has begun to travel down
its westward slope, and I guess we
must be moving from this point.
We will circle around to the north
east, and go down by the Summit
House of the G. E. & NJ. p. wagon.
This house is situated on the sum-
NIT of Burthoud's pass, at an eleva-
ton Of about 1900 feet, not being
quite rs high as timber line, ten
miles from EmpOria City and elev-
en- miles from the head OF s'MiddIe
park" We hope to meet our friend
Thomas at that point. With our
things all ready we will start, aud
conclude when we get 10 the bot
tom again.
Home al lastI On our trip down
1 shot one quail, being all the game
of any kind we saw while out. Our
friend Thomas was at the "Top
House," and very glad to see US.
No adventures further down, SO
you may consider this ramble con-
cluded. s.
