answer, because of the confidential character OF
the communications between the President,

GEN. TERRY telegraphed from St.
Paul, on the 10th, that dispatches re-
ceived from Col. Miles, via Bozeman,
state that on the Sth of December three
companies of the Fifth Infantry, under
Lieut.. FrankD. Baldwin, struck Sitting
Bulls camp on Red Water and defeated
him with the loss of all the property in
the camp and 60 mules and ponies.
The Indians escaped with little besides
whatthey had on their persons. Addi-
tiOnal news from Miles's command, via
Tongue River, says that on December
II five prominent Sioux chiefs APP
preached the post about noon with a
flag of truce. When within few hun
dred yards of the post, and before their
approach was known to a single officer
or soldier d . = SAN -
bounced upon and killed by Crow
scouts who belonged to the post. Col.
Miles was indignant beyond measure
at the bloody tragedy, both on account
of its atrocity and by reason of the pos
sible Importance of their mission.

The report Of the committees of the
two houses of Congress, appointed to
devise plan for counting the Electoral
vote, was made on thesI8th. The re-
port is signed by Senators Edmunds,
Frelinghuysen, Conkling, Thurman,
Bayard, and Ransom, and Representa-
tives Payne, Hunton, Hewitt, Springer,
McCrary, Hoar, and Willard-an the
members of both committees, with the
exception of Senator Morton. The full
text of the bill agreed upon is publish
ed in another column.
Washington dispatches of the 10Th
state that the plan of the Joint Com
mittee for the determination of the Pres
idential question continues the promi-
nent theme of conversation. Apart
from the gentlemen composing the
committee the plan is not enthusiastic
allyreceived, Thoughts number of men,
bers say they viii vote for it as a SEEM
ing necessity, while others do not ap-
pear TO have made up their minds on
the subject. Some members think the
bill ought to be amended, but others
say that the amendments would
destroy the prospect of its pas
sage, and therefore it would be
better to vote upon it as it
reported from the committee. 1t is
generally believed that there will be a
determined opposition to the bill by a
minority in both houses-the Repubh-
cIn opponents in the Senate being led
by Messrs. Morton and Sargent, and
the Democratic opponents in the House
by Speaker Randall and Mr.. Wood.
Public sentiment in the East seems TO
be strongly il favor of the measure,
while the greatest opposition will cone
from the Northwest. Advices from
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois are to the
effect that both parties are divided upon
the question.
