CAMP STAGEP, On TERRl's LAKE (Wyo.l,
August 135b.-le was determined last night
to move cur camp this morning few miles,
to where there would be more abundant ersz-
ing for the horses and mules. Accordingly st
6:30 a. NJ every one was 10 the saddle AID
started up the right bank OF Wind river,
Owing TO the rain Of yesterday the trail was
in splendid eczcition for comfort in lDsrch-
ing. The sun was ohscured by clouds. and
with temperature Of below 50' Fabrenhsit,
finer dsy fer our journey could not be
wished. At the end of an hours travel over
high rolling land, tbs Wind river was reached
at point where it passes the gorges, Here
were masses Of rock known as the "Red
Buttes." The first crossing was made by
fording in diagonal direction up the stream,
how that ones neighbor seemed to
be moving in the river with the
speed of running hoT5s. Soon
by a sHort ford the river Was crossed, sHd at
this end of another hour the western bc1nc-
cry of the Shoshone reservation was EesC ed.
Prom this point ouerstraygl was very inser.
essing. but not zoo difficult, journey over 2
series OF lofty divides, 30 escape the pTecipi
toUs banks OF the small streams flowing from
the mountains into the river. In descending
one Of these it was necessary to dismount and
halted to take in the beautiful view, covering
scores Of miles up aud down the river, with
the snoW-covered peaks OF the Shoshone
mountains ia front Of US, and those of the
Wind river mountains st our backg. Here
we took our last look at the great landmark
Crow Heart Butte, thirty miles away, which
had been in view since le2ving Fort Waehakie
Wallowing Baffalo, one Of our Arspshos
guides, tells US that it got its name from
great battle between the Shoshoues and the
Crows many years age. The victory of the
ShOshone5 was celebrated by burylDg the
hearts Of the dead Cows on the summit Of
the In Sc. After ride Of two miles we have
reached the banks Of some beautiful lakes
called after Captain Tsrrey, formerly an Off
Ger of the army, but now owning large cattle
herds on the ranges near by. The lakes ara
said to abound in large trout, and we expect
to spend tomorrow fishing. Game is not
very abundant in this neighborh0od, but our
hunters brought in two antelope yesterday,
shd few mountain grouse Wers killed on
this march to-day. Shoshone Dick, white
meGber OF the tribe, who was captured
probably from an emigrant train when SO
young as to have lost all recollection CT the
event, is one of our Indian party. He has
gone off to lock for signs Of game, and we
hope for good report from hiD. Our camp
is named Camp Ssager, In honor Of General
Anson Stsger, of Chicago.

NEW YORK, August 18th. Chinatovn has
been discussing, with various opinions, duriog
the past week, the organization Of Chinese
protective associations among the New York
Chinsmen. All Yung Wing Chin, the Con
sal, who is directing the prcjeeE, is asssiled
in most caustic Chinese by those unfavorsble
to it. There are already thrse local associa-
tons of the kind-the Ha Kah Sing" the
+" Ha Kah Wong SeDg" and the "Hong Secb
Seng." Said Chinese lsundr7man in broken
English, land these might better be united
than add to the number" Another Chins-
man, wbo expressed himself intelligently,
thought the Consul imagined himself sill IN
China, aud desirous, as the EmperOr's reprs.
sentative, of welding arbitrary power so far
as be could. Many Of the ignorant Chinese
would believe that be bad this right, snd he
could levy taxes on them sftes the custom st
home. Said this man: "There are snuulber

of his suite are all dressed after what may be
