FORT A~sslNAee,sE.

A Helena, Montana correspondent Of the
New York Herald, gives the following in
telligence concerning the new post now
building on the Montana frontier:
The eighteenth infantry were unmolested
by Indians on their march from the Coal
Bankst 10 Beaver creek, where Fl. .Assainboine
will be built. Small parties of Uncapapas
and Y%anktonnias lowered near them to take
in stragglers, should there be any but no
one was rash enough to be taken in" On
the day the command left Box Elder creek
a war party of Yanktonnias was observed
aboct three miles distant, aud some friend
ly Gros Ventres went to look after them.
A fight ensued in which the Gros Nen,res
were worsled, the Yanktonnias securing
three scalps. Sitting Bull sent Gen. Ruser,
commander of the eighteenth, word that he
would not allow a military post to be built
on Beaver creek. well build it, though"
said the general; "and it will be impossible
for the Bull to raise a force large enough to
make Ruger break his word" The vici-
nifty of the proposed fort will he constantly
patrolled by two companies of the second
cavalry, in order to obtain early warning Of
any hostile movement on the part Of the
redskins. No serious trouble Is apprehend-
ed by the best judges of the 81 u%ation, but
the Milk river country will not be a desir-
able locality for pic mic parties, this season
at any rate. The troops stationed at Assam
boine will inevitably have their hands full,
and if it is true that only four companies
are to winter there the Indians will have to
be unusually quiet to be kept in check by
such a force. The post tradershsp, worth
$4,000 per year, has been awarded to C. 4.

been established by the government from

THE SITUATION At WASHINGTON.

A special dispatch from Washington,
dated the 9Th, to the Chicago Times, says a
prominent republican defines the situation
and the probabilities Of congressional action
here as follows: He says that.the legislative
bill will of course become a law, and that
the army bill will also be allowed to 90
through in the shape in which the demo-
.crats have put it. He says that The presi-
dent will not veto it unless there should be
q vigorous and united opposition to the bill
in congress, and he docs not think that the
republicans will consider it worth while TO
make strenuous opposition to the bill. The
little judicial bill will be vetoed, and con.
gress will then adjourn without having
made provisions for the courts. This gen.
tleman thinks that the democrats desire to
have this bill fail in order that they may
appear,t to keep the issue open during the
fall elections. The best opinionnow is that
an adjournment will be secured about the
goth or the 18th inst. z

THE HERON LAKE EXTENSION.
Moody County Enterprise.

|. The proposed line of the Heron Lake
branch Of the St. Paul 4 Sioux City road
runs from Heron Lake to the csetre Of
Murray county, and thence directly vest.
BY taking this route they run along the di-
vide, between the streams running south
and those running north, and pass to the
north Of Lost Timber. Those familiar with
the country say that this is a much more
favorable route for building over than that
adopted by the Southern Minnesota, which
runs near the southern lines Of those coun-
tues. A further advantage which will accrue
to the St. Paul aud Sioux City folks is that
their line will take them through the coun-
ty seats Of the counties through which their
line will run. .ge
