A Fight with The Indians.
General Miles Surprises an In
dian Camp.
FOURTEEN INDIANS AND ONLY ONE
SOLDIER KILLED.

NEW YORK May 80. A despatch from Tongue
River, dated the 10th inst, says Gen. Miles sur
prised an Indian camp on the morning of the 7th
inst, capturing iorty-f ponies, and having d
running fight for several miles. The Indians
mainly escaped with left dead on the field among
them the chief Lame Deer and head warrior
Iron Star. Two hundred saddles and fifty tons
dried meats were captured, also quantities Of am e
muntion, blankets. cal blues, pack loads OF beads
war bonnets. tepees. etc. The casualties in Miles
command were few.
Gen. Miles had given orders to the interpreters
to announce as they went through the camp that
all who surrendered would be pardoned.
As Miles rode through the village two Indians
approached him, holding in one hand their car
bines, and extending the other. Gen. Miles shook
hands with Lame Deer, and Lieut.. Baird, adiu-
tant of lutaLtry, shook hands with the other, who
was Iron Star. Miles motloned to the Indians to
lay down their arms. They did So and the Gen
eral told Lieut.. Long OF the 5th infantry to DIS
mount and take the carbines.
Lieut.. Long had hardly dlsmounted when Lame
Deer picked up his carbine and fired at General
Miles, the ball passing between the Generals
body and horses back, and killing private Spring
er OF the second cavalry behind him. Iron Star
began shooting at the same time, and both Iu-
dams retreated firing, but were killed within a
hundred yards.

The term turns out to be an unusually short
one. The arguments in every cause where the
parties were ready were concluded yesterday. To-
day there will be a private consultation Of
all the eight judges, upon cases where the requi-
site quorum have been unable hitherto to concur
in opinion, and to make a division of the work
for the next year. On Thursday the court will
sit in the forenoon to announce decisions, and
will then adjourn without day. One source of
litigation in this county and likely to remain SO
for years to come, is happily removed-the will
of the late James Abbott of Pitlston. 1t will be
recolIected that the will gave the bulk of the es-
ute to Lsuretta Clark of Augusta, only child
by the first wife, and contested by the widow
and the other children. 1t is understood that
Mrs. Clark yields to her stepmother the OF
SIX thousand dollars in cash, in addition to one
thousand dollars already allowed her by the
Judge of Probate and all further objection TO the
will is to be waived. Under the circumstances
the settlement must be regarded as just and fair.
The court has appointed Emery o. Bean of Read
field, Edmund f. Webb OF Walerville, William
7. Whitehouse of Augusta and Henry 5. Web
ster of Gardiner, to be Masters in Chancery in
this county. They take the place of masters ap-
pointed fifteen years ago, all of whom are now
dead or promoted to the bench
