From the Silver City Chronicle-l
 Early Tuesday forenoon Gen. Buell. telegraphed Postmaster Bailey to warn the people that he had req son to believe Indians were in the country. An hour later another tel cgram was received from Fort Cum mIngs giving the sickening details Of the capture by Indians of the hack near GoO1sight, II miles east of Cum mings. Alex. La Bieu, the drIver, Emory s. Madden, son of Capt. Mad den, of Fort Bowie, and Isaac Roberts, of Greenville county, New York, were killed.
 Upon receipt of this news General Buell. at once put his available force in the field, taking with him the op- orator 1t ihe Fort, and no definite in formation was had here until the ar rival of ihe coach last evening. On being notified at Cummings of the capture of the hack and murder of the driver and passengers, Capt. c. H.. Parker, Fourth Cavalry, with his Company, was sent forward to ascer- tain the true condition of affairs, while other troops under Gen. Dudley rap idly followed uD. In the meantime, and before the presence of the Indians was known on the river another coach had left Mesilla On its arrival near the scene of the capture of the hack the day before the Indians were again encountered and the coach with two passengers narrowly escaped by run ming into a camp of railroad survey ors who happened to be near by. In the meantime Capt. Parker with hls command arrived. The Indians are reported tO have been 200 strong. He at once attacked them, and after a severe fight in which he lost one soldier and two Indian scouts killed, and three soldiers and two or three scouts wounded. II is reported that he was compelled tO withdraw, but this report needs con firmatiOn. On the arrival of General Dudley with endorsements, which must have been very soon after Park CTS engagement, the Indians com menced a retreat in the direction of POlomas Lake, and at last report Gen. Buell. with about 800 troops was in hot pursuit. It appears from this that Vic torio with his entire band of war riors is again on the scene of his recent uiumphs. Just how he got back without being discovered by the troops and Indian scouts, who have for months been watching his movements along the Mexican line, IS a mystery. These Indians appear 10 be ubiquit- Ous; they invariably appear and deal their heaviest blows when least eX- pected. The party that took in the hack was evidently an advance guard that had been sent forward to watch the road and keep an eye on the troOpS-their objective point being the Black Range. Young Madden. who was killed, had been at school in New York. and was returning to spend his vacation with his parents al Bowie. Isaac Roberts was a native of CarnarvanShirc, North Wales, but for several years had resided in Green vile, Washington county, New York, where he leaves a wife and two ch,i- dren. He was on route to this ely.
