Ho doesn't deny making somo bulls in his timo, and has writ- ten to_ somo Postmnstors and other notive.

No ono can got up an issue with him on condomnation of the salary-grab, for ho hos from tho first not hesitated to oxpross his opinion of it a8 wrong, and as wordo than A crmo—a blunder.

A meoting was thoroupon held at the Sun offico, in which soveral Massa. chusetts gentlomen participated, and Col.

Who votes for so-and-so?" ofo. By this monns the oppononts of Gon. Butlor ox- pect to bo able to keep their men up to their contracts, The statomont comes from Col.

Ii is not known from porsonsl knowlodgo that this is true, but the informant is in a position to toll what he knows. Ho oxplains tho hostility of the firm by tho fact that Gop. Butler was tho counsel of the Governmont in conducting the prosecution for the importation irregularities. Another contributor is tho administrator of ono of the most valuablo estates in Boston. The informant is & goutloman who hold closo -{ relations with tho Republicans of Now York Btato in the Iast campaign, and fumnishoed infor mation of grnlt value in regard totho move- ments of the Liberal-Domocrats. Col. Wood says the plans of his oppononts aro so woll Iaid that it will bo imguualblo for Butler to secure the nomination, but he shall keop on working up to the last momont. ‘WasmnoToN, Aug. 95.—A prominent Massa- chugetts Ropublican arrived here to-day sintes that an inside canvass of the approaching nomi- nating;Convention gives Butler five hundrod and eighty out of eloven hundred dologates.

IHaving got about tox miles ahosd, they halted and pickotod their horsos in tho wood by a river towait forthe train, T'wo hours aftorward six Indinus appear- od on tho plain, and made demionstrations townrd thoir camp. A diswounted line of skirmishers was thrown out, and the Lorses woro saddled. The Indions were ensily drivon off, but proved to bo thedacoy of a large anly in o neighboring wood, walting in nmbush for the cavalry. TFinding that thoir ruso had failad, the Indfans, to tho numbor of 800, boldly rodo out and ad- vanced on the grove occupied by the cavalry. Gen.

While thus engaged with Gon, Custer in front, another party of Indians crawled nlong bobind uuder tho river-bauk and tried to stampode big homsos, but were frustratod. The Indians firod tho grass in soveral places, but failed to burn out the cavalry. Gon.
