THE LITTLE BIG HORN
ENCOUNTER.
Siodx Expedition, Moutii of
the Big Horn, 1. Long before
the arrival of this despatch you will
have heard of thc tragedy which
has been enacted here . Thc ghast
ly details Should seem to court ob
livion, if it were in the nature of
things possible to forget or cloak
them up. At noon, on tho 22d of
June, Gen. Custer at'' the head of
his fine regiment of twelve veteran
companies, lelt camp at the mouth
of the Rosebud, to follow the trail
of a very large band of hostile
Sioux leading up the river, and
westward in direction of the Big
Horn. The signs indicated that
the Indians were making for the
eastern branch of the last named
river, marked on the map as thc
"Little Bis Horn." At the same
time Gen. Terry, with Gibbon's
command of five companies of in
fantry, four of cavalry, and the
Gatling battery, started to ascend
the Big Horn, aiming to assail the
enemy in thc rear. The march of
the two columns was so planned as
to bring Gibbons forces within
cooperating distance of the antici-
upon a lofty eminence on the right
bank of the river. Gen. Terry for
ded the stream, accompanied by a
small party, and rode to the spot.
All the way the slopes were dotted
with the bodies of men ar.d hordes.
The General approached, and
the men swarmed out of the works
and greeted him with hearty and
repeated cheers. Within was
found Reno, with thc remains of
seven companies of the regiment,
and thc following-named officers,
all of whom are unhurt: '-ols. Ben
teen and Wicr; Caps. Felix, May
Ian, and McDougal; Licuts Godfrey,
Mathcy, Gibson, Dorndcd. Edgcrly,
Wallace, Varnnm, and Hare. In
the centre of the enclosure was a
depression in the surface, in which
the wounded were sheltered, cov
ered with canva?. Iteuo's com
niancbhad.bcen fight'mg from Sun
day noon, the 25th, until the night
of the 26th, when Terry's arrival
caused the Indians to retire. Up
to .this time Reno and those with
him were in complete ignorance of
the fate of the other fivo companies,
which had been separated from
them on the 25th to make an attack,

MARCTHKG TO THE SCENK OF CAR-
SAGE.
The morning of the 2Cth brought
the intelligence, communicated by
three badly frightened Crow scouts,
of tho previous day and its result?.
The. story was not credited bocanso
it was not expected thai aa attack
would be matle earlier than thc 27th,
and , chiefly hiicausq no one could,
believe that force such, as Custer
commanded could have met with
disaster. Still, the report was in
no way disregarded. All day long
the toilson?e march wa3 plied, and
every eye was tjent upon a cloud of
their horses beside them. Here be.
hind Yate's con pany the last stand
had been made, and here one after
anothor these last survivors of Cus-
ters tlvo companies had met their
death. The companies had succes
sively thrown themselves across
the path of the advancing enemy,
and had been annihilated. Aot a
man has escaped to tell the tale
but it was inscribed on the surface
of the barren hills in a language
more eloquent than words. Two
hundred and sixty-one bodies have
been buried Irom Custer's and
Reno's commands. The last one
found was that of Mr. Kellogg,
corpesfiondent of the Bismark Tri-
raischicvou3 financial policy; by iig
unexampled official corruption per
vading all branches ot its adminis
