Give us a little time. “I deeply deplore the loss of Custer and bis officers and men. I iear it was an un ss- cessary sacrifice, due to misapprehension and superabun’ance of courage, the latter extraordinarily developed in Custer. I will keep in constant communication with you, and if I should see the slightest necessity of additional mounted men, which unfortu- nately cannot be furnished from my meagre command, I will not hesitate to ask for them; and if hone st will give the two hundred thousand dollars which I have ask- ed for for the past two years for the esta». lishing of the posts at Tongue river and tue mouth of the Big Horn, it will be in the in- terest of economy, and will settle the Stoax question.

Sherman says that be has notified Terry that six companies of the 5th infaatry, un tor Miles, will immediately join him, and also that he has requested Gen. Sherman to seid from the lake stations six companies of the 22a Infantry to join him also. Gen. Sheridan further says: “I have also notified General Crook of this fact, and that if he required any additional force to the six companies already sent him, I can order the eight companies of infantry under Gen. Merritt to join him. There is nothing to be regretted but poor Custer's death, and the officers and men with him. The column was sufficiently strong to h.ve handled the Indians if Custer had wailed for the junction. There is no cause for un- easiness, and we Will soon give the Indlans another turn. I will be in Chieago by the first train.” Gen. Sheridan does not think the Indians can number more than 2,500 or 3,000 men, and must be greatiy embarrassad by thelr wounded. THE OvTs AND INS OF DR.

Helmvold arrived here on the evening of the 4th by the New Je sey South- ern railroad, having escaped from the Phiia- delphia lunatic asylum. He had no money. The officials passed him over the road. He registered at the Ocean Hotel and called for the best suite of rooms in the hoase. He looked well, talked rationally, and called many of his old friends by name. He suid he had come here for the purpose of clearing up the malic'ous rumors Which drove hira from his country and exiled him for foar years from his home and family.

C.,) Observer contains an an- nouncement of the elopement from that city of a Miss Bradshaw, a recent convert to the Catnolic faith, with Father Hands, a Catho- lic priest, also of Charlotte. The pair went to one of the western counties of the state, where, it is understood, they were married. The purpose of these parties to marry had been suspected in Charlotte for some time past, and the fact had been communicated to ishop Gibbons, who silenced Father Hands Several weeks ago. The papers suspending bim were sent toa priest in Gasten county, who hesitated to deliver them to Father Hands because he dispelieved the report. The Observer states that Bishop Gibbous has appointed Father J. Alfred Frederick, of Baltimore, to succeed Father Hands. ARRIVAL OF A GORILLA Ar LIVERPOOL. A young living gorilia was, on Jane 21, brought into Liverpool by the Germano African Soclety’s expedition, which arrived by the sieamship » from the west coast. The animal isa young male,in the most perfect health and condition and meas. ures nearly three feet in height. Its beetling brow, fattened podgy nose, black muzzie, small ears, and thick fingers, cleft only to the second joint, distinguishes it unmistak- ably from the Chimpanzee.

Terry’s Command. A late account of the Custer massacre, received at Chicago last evening, describing the march of Gen. Terry to the relief of Gen. Custer, = the morning of the 26th brought the intelligence, communicated by tnree badly-frightened Crow scouts, of the battle of the previous day and its result. The story Was not credited, because it was never ex- pected that an atlack world be made earlier than the 2th, and chiefly because no one could believe that @ force such as Caster coromauded could have met with disaster. Still the report was in no way disregarde.1 Allday long the toflsome march was pliei, and every eye bent upon a cloud of smoke resting over the southern horizon, which was nailed as a sign that Custer was succssatul and had fired the village. A MARCH OF 2) MILES The infantry had marched 29 miles. Toe march of the next morning revea'ed ateve y siep some évidence of the conflict which hud taken place two days before. At an early hour the bead of the column entered a plata half a mile wide, bordering the left bank of the Little Big Horn. The ground was strewa every where with carcases of horses, cavaliy equipments, besides buffalo robes, pacttag-3 of dried meat and weapons and utensils be- longing to the Indians. On this part of the fleld was found the clothing of Lieuts. Stur- ges and Porter, pierced with bullets, and the blood-stained gauntlet belonging to Cul. Yates. Further on were found bodies of men. Just then & breathless scout arrived with tne intelligence that Col Reno, with @ remnant of the 7th cavairy, was entrenched on a biaif near by waiting for rellef. A JOYFUL MERTING. The command pushed rapidly on, and s9on came in sight of a group surrounding a cav- airy. guard upon a lofty eminence on the right bank ofa river. Gen. Terry forded the stream, accompanied by asmali party, and rode to the spot. All the way the slopes were dotted with the bodies of men aid horses. The General approached, and tue men swarmed out of the works and greeted bim with hearty and repeated cheers. ‘Within was found Reno with the remains of seven companies of the regiment. In the center of the enclosure was @ depression io the surface, tn which the wounded were sheltered, covered with canvas. Reno's command had been fighting since Sunday noon, the 25th, until the night of the 26rn, when Terry’s arrival caused the Indians to retire. Up to this time Reno and those wi'n him were in complete iggorance of the fate of the other five companies, which had be+n separated from them on the 25th to make an attack, under Custer, on the village at another point. A TERRIBLE SPECTACLE. While preparations were beiag made for the removal of the wounded, a party was sent on Custer’s trail to look for traces of his command. They found awaiting therm a sight to appal the stoutest heart. All aiong the slopes and ridges and in the ravines, lying as they had fought, line behind line, showing where ciefensive positions had been successively taken up and held till none were left to fight—there, huddled ina narrow compass, horses and men were piled prom:s- cuously. At the kighest point of the ridge lay Custer, surrounded by a chosen band. Here were his two brothers and his nephew, Mr. Reed, Cols. Yates and Cook and Capt’ Smith, all lying inacircleof a few yards, their horses beside them. Here behiad Yates’ company the last stand had b-en made, and here, one after anotner, these last survivors of Custer’s FIVE COMPANIES HAD MET THEIR DEATII. The companies had successively thrown themselves across the path of the advancing enemy and had been annihilated. Noi a man has escaped to tel! the tale, but It was inscribed on the surface of the barren hills in language more eloquent than words. Two hundred ard sixty-one bodies have deen bu- ried from Custer’s and Reno's commands. The Jast one found was tnat of Mr. Kellovg, correspendent of the Bismarek Tribune, ad also, I believe, of the New York Herat: MOURNING AT THE RED CLOUD AGENCY.

AN ARTIFICIAL NoSE PLACED ON A Lapy.—The a Journal says: Ove of the greastest achievement in surgical science which we have heard of for some time was the manufacture of a good, weil- bore oy nose on the face ofa female patieat at the Surgical Institute, in this city, a few weeks ago. The young lady’s nose had been eaten off by disease, and she was sent to tue Institute to have it replaced by a new one, which delicate and skiliful piece of work- aoc could only be performed where surgical science had attained something like perfection. An operation was perform- ed, and aftera few weeks of comparativriy painless waiting, @ well formed nose repaid the patient for her slight suffering.

FORTY-FOURTH CONGRESS. Satvurpay, July 8.

Referred. 'r. Mitchell presented a petition of miners and pioneers of Alaska, setting forth their grievances under the military goverament of thatrection. Referred. Mr. Windom, from the Committee on Ap- oom, reported a bill to continue in force the act providing temporarily for the expenses of the government for ten days from the 10th of July. Passed. Mr. Kernan introduced a bill for the bet- ter protection of life and property at sea. Referred. Mr. Anthony, from the Committee on Printing, reported a bill to continue the work under the Congressional Printer for ten days after July 10. Passed. Mr. Morton catied up the resolution direct- ing the Committee on Printing to investi- ex — official conduct of the Congressional rinter. Mr. Anthony said the committee had gone over the ground @ number of times, and if an investigation was made he hoped it would be one that would stand. He offerei a sub- stitute for the resolution, authorizing the committee to employ three practical print- ers or publishers to make the investigation and submit @ report to the committee, as supplemental to the action of that commit- tee. He thought it "ery proper that experts sbould be employed, as the members of the committee could not go through with the examination of so large an establishment. Mr. Saulsbury opposed both the resolution and amendment. If tne lavestigation were to made at all he thought it should be made by @ larger committee than that on printing, which would require the presence of two of the three members. Without action the resolution went over. Mr. Wadileigh called up the House biil to supply &0 omission in the enrollment of the deficiency bill approved March 3d, 1875. Passed. Mr. Logan called up the bill to equalize the bounties of soldiers who served tn the late war for tbe Union. The Senate by a vote Of 20 to 25 refused to take up the bill. Mr. Logan said that the bill had been be- fore the Senate since 1868, and had passed the House five times.

The counsel for the defence, owing to an error in the Congressional Record, which named one o'clock as the time to which the court adjourned, were not present. Several motions for @ recess were made and voted down, and the journal of yesterday was read, at the termination of which Mr. Carpenter appeared and was soon followed by General Belknap and the other counsel. General E. D. Townsend, adjutant general, was recalled, and his examination continued by Mr. McMahon, one of the managers. _Witness was shown two letters from Evans accepting the appointment of post trader, one to Secretary Belknap direct, dated November 25, 1570, and the other dated December 1. and addressed to Adjutant General’s office, supposed the latter was written to comply with the instructions coptained in the letter of appointment to report through the Adjutant General's office. A cumber of other papers were introduced and verified by the witness. Among them were the recommendation of Evans by the officers at Fort Sill, the order for the re- moval of other traders than Evans, and let ters from Gen. Grierson in connection with the execution of the orders.

The first paper was a communication from the Solicitor of the Treasury, transmitting papers, in which they were’ charged with selling liquor to Indians, Mr. Carpenter objected to the letter as ir- rel-vant. After argument by couusel the Senate voted to admit the papers. The papers were then read by the Clerk and proved to be a letter from Solicitor Banfield endorsing two letters from the U. 8. Attorney at Fort Smith, Ark, stating that Evans & Co. had introduced $50,000 worth of wines, and asking if they had any authority to do so, and stating that frequent complaints were made respecting suc’ in- troduction, and asking advice relative to their seizure. A letter from Secretary Belknap ac- knowledging recept of papers and stating that Evans denies having taken liquors into the Indian country, apd taat no complaints had been made against him by the officers, who regard him as a law-abiding citizen, He asks that no proceedings against him ne had until the charges are fully investigated. The next letter produced was one from Secretary Belknap to Evans reciting the changes, and asking by what authority it was done. The next was the letter of Gen. Grierson, in which he recites that the firm represent to him that they had ool 9 large sums to @ Mr. Marsh, of New York city, already made pantie through the House investigation.
