THE INDIANS.

Sitting Bull Defeated in Three Battles.
NEW YORK. JAN 16.-A special to the Her =
aid says that Gen. Miles, Colonel of the 9Th In
fantry, has just returned after a most success
full campaign against Sitting Bull and other
hostile chiefs, who moved to the north of the
Yellowstone river in October last The COM
mand numbered 439 men. They marched over
600 miles in forty-fve days, defeating Sitting
Bull in three distinct engagements and driving
Yellowstone river, which he will probably cross
and endeavor to form q junction with Crazy
Horse. after which he will proceed without re-
turning to the cantonmeIt to attack the latter
Sitting Bulls force numbered over 1000
and more than 1000 we'll armed warriors. They
were completely routed and scattered.
There is now but little doubt of his capture
which is necessary for pursuit, will hold out for
few weeks longer.
The last fight with Sitting Bull occurred on
the 18th, just on the head waters of Red Water
creek. On that day Lieut. Frank D. Baldwin,
with three companies of the 9th Infantry, at
tackled his camp and completely routed him,
capturing most of his lodges, a large number of
ponies and destroying all the robes, with the
meat and other provisions.
The sufferlngs of Gen. Miles command dur
ing the campaign were very great. Yesterday
mercury stood Sc degrees below zero.
The same despatch says five Sioux chiefs
were pounced upon by Crow scout and killed
and scalped before they were seen and recog-
nized by the garrison at the cantOnment. They
had white flag and probably intended to sur
render.
A Washington special says that the War
Department has been advised that the Indian
war is closed By Sitting Bulls departure for
the British Possessions, where he always OBJ
tains rifles and ammunition.

A NewlOrleans' special to the Times says
the Presidents message appears to be CON-
plete recognition of the legal state govern
