Please coave; to Generals Crook and Mackonzie my congratulation: assure them that we appreciate highly she service of brave officers and mon who ure now fighting suvaxes in the most inhospitable regions of our continent, T hape their efforts this winter will result in perfect s=ecess and that our troops will hereutter be spared the necessity of these hard winter campaigns. W. T. SILBKMAN, General. MARDSUIPS OF THK CAMPAIGN. Hunting hostile Indians, when ono sets about the business in an carnest and determined way, is no picnic at any season, and least of all in winter In this region, There ia too much sameness in a landscape all mantied with enow to afford much pleasure to the eye, and the keen, cold airs that sweep over the plains and whirl through the mountain passes, though they may ‘be music to tho savage ear, are neither laden with the odor of sweet flowers nor made melodious by the song of bird, Even the murmur of the babbling brook 18 husbed in icy death and achcerless silence possesses all the scene, making our every movement scem a toil- some invasion of the dreary solitude. No one who has had a taste of a winter campaign out here will fail to Join with Genera! Sherman in his wish that our success now may put anend to them. But { fancy our chances of catching Crazy Horso napping are Dot very good, TRIALS OF THE CAMP. Our camp on the Dry Fork ot Powder River was by Do means u cheerlul one, yet we remained there from Sunday afternoon of December 8 until the following Wednesday morning. There was wood enough to keep us warm, but very little grass, and execrable water In very small quantfties. A fow small, muddy pools of greasy alkali water wore all that could be found within miles to supply the entire command, men and animals. But some of our wagons had been sent onto Fettermon for grain, and others must bo | Jot behind to forward euppites to be brought to this | point by contractors’ wagons. So we must move slowly for awhile. Besides thero was no need to bo tm haste. We knew nothing definitely of the location of Crazy Horse’s village, and must be content to grope forward for atime, We lad sent scouts back to Red Cloud to bring on other Indians, and these could not be back for several days, and we may not hope to fearn anything to guide our future movements, except by accident, until their return. All that was left tor us to do, then, was to press onward a nitle and seek a better camping ground, and this we set about 4s soon as possible. On Wodnesday we moved about Yen miles toward Pumpkin Buttes, and jortunately fame upon some springs of good, pure water. In thankfulness for this discovery some of our party @amed these “Grand Springs,” but us there was not a stick of wood anywhere near we were on the go again Bext morning in a thick, dreary snow storm, working on toward tho head waters of the Bolle Fourche. We Mmarched about twenty-one miles on Thursday before Qnding water, and again there was no wood but sage brush to be had. Aware of the scarcity of fuel, how- ever, we provided against it ina measure by bringing fome wood along in our wagons. PLENTY OF GAME. Game was plentiful along tho line of our march that day and our Indians reaped a rich harvest by gales of deer and antelope killed on the way. They earned all they got, howeveb, for the weather was so cold one could scarcely pulla trigger without risk of freezing hisfingera. The following day, Friday, we had another Jong march over a dreary and treciess waste, but game ‘was still found in abundance and a large number of | antelopo and deer, as well as some swaller xame, were brought in by adventurous hunters. The Jength | of our recent marches had now almost compietely ex- bausted our hungry animals, but still we had not ar- ved at wood for fuel or shelter. Some of the muics uling the tents and rations of the iroops fell trom exhaustion on the road, aud on two or three occasions the meu were left without ivod until far into the night, having broaklasted, too, before daylight. This deprivation, tacked on to the Weariness of a uine orten | hours’ wamp in the spow and through storms, up hills | una down rough ravines, with uo shelter when they | ouacked and no warmth but such as may be ob- tained from the flickering flames of sprigs of sage bruah, gathered at no littie cxpense of time and toi, made’ our progress scem dull and wncorlortablo e@uough occasivnaliy. But, tortunately, we had not much further to go before coming upou plenty of wood as well as good grass und water Ja abunuauce. YOOD AND WATER, A short march of five miles on Saturday gave us at Jast a chance to rest ourselves and let our animals te- | cuperate. From our camp made on Saturday fitty | More wagons were sent back to thg camp on the Dry | Fork of the Powder River to forward the gtores sai | to be xccumulating at that point. This we knew | would require at ieast a week, und since then we have been advancing along by slow degrees trom one | int to another as wood und grass have become ex. | usted, ‘Thus with all the speed possible to our tired and | ili-ted animals, under the circumstances detailed, and DO little toil to our troops, the Powder River Expeul- tion bas advanced, in its search for Crazy Horse's village, to a pot on the Belle Fourche which brings Indistinetly to,view the outlines of the Biack Hills.

After the attack, which took place about teu o’clock at night, the ladiaps pursued a course directly southward, with nine horses red from the miners. The Pawnees followed the for some distance, but couciuded the hostiles bad too much the start of them to be overhauled, so they got off with their plunder ly. ‘The same day a mail reached us. from Reno, and wi learned that another party of miners had been attacked and two of them wounded on Viney Creok >; another band of Cheyennes, So we find that Dull Knite’s late horde is broken up into small partics, some of which, no doubt, are drifting towara the agencies, bound to be very good Indians when they return, but determined to make the most of their op- portunities until they got in. THE WANDEKING MINERS, The chief sufferers by their depredations meanwhile will be the wandering bands of miners und horse thieves who hover on borders of civilized and savage life without any of responsibility to the laws or customs of either community. ana who are frequently offenders against the rights of both the white man and the Indian, ‘These fellows become a perfect pest toa command operating against Indians in this region. Winter and summer they follow in 1ts wake, picking and stealing, begging and borrowing everything they need or cun dispose of tor’ cash at the first settlement they come upon, <A party of them who joined us in the Big Horn Mountains stolemy pack mule during our fight with the Cheyennes, und aller defacing the brandson ber had the impudence to pack their own traps on her and drive her along for several days within four or tive miles of the column.

They merely “found” her (though she had not been lost at all), and drove her along so that she shuuld not go astray in the moun- taing. While we baye beon resting here, awaiting the ai rival of our Wagous and the retura of our Indian scouts from Red Cloud, we have beea favored with unusually fine weather most of the time—a compensation for past endurances that we have been in excellent mood to en- joy. In our leisure moments 1t seems w pleasure to Tecall the times of our trials, and such recoilecuons in- variably summon up one character who is always prominent, THR MUL DRIVER, This is the mule driver—no unimportant personage in the fold, The mule driver is not always the meck- est of mi passes for a mere cypher when not positively and originally profane. Oiten there is a deep tinge of sarcasm too 1n his conversation with the poor animals under his charge. But even the modest mule will take a scolding and a bite rather than yo hungry and unrebuked on ils tolisome and dreary journey. Atall hours, whenever you chance to be in his neighborhood, you hear the voice of the irritatea mule driver arguing with or damuing bis mules. “You're at itagaip, are you? damn your heart,” cries, an angry driver toa gaunt mule which is trying to bite a bole in acorpulent grain sack. ‘Look here, it you dont’t leave that there sack alono I'l! take a ham- mor and knock every damned tooth out of your head, What the devil do I teed you tor ?”” Further on the line you hear adriver notso violent in bis threats, but much more sarcastic in his conversa- tion, “Your name is Humpy,” he says, in bitter tones, and you area damn mule, damn your skin. Do you know your name is Hampy?” Then in a louder voice, emphasized by a crue! cut of the whip, he further in- quires of his dumb servant, ‘Vo you know you're a mule ?”* Toiling along through a blinding storm, at another time you listen to the’ strange ouths of a ‘mulo skinner” until you are fairly astounded at his inveo- tiveness and the singularity of bis combinations in the inatter of swearing, But these terrible threats aud compound hyphenated ‘swears’? tall unbeoaed on the weary mule, and ag a tinal resort the driver, appealing to the jaded animal's self-respect, with set teeth cries, “Git up, Kitty; git up. Won’t you git out of tnis most inbospitabie region of the American contivent ?’” Doubtless there 1s much provocation for all this pro- fanity, but oh! what d flood of tears a sympathotic re- cording angel would require to blot out half the en- tries against the mule drivers of the Powder River Ex- pedition, z AKRIVAL OF _RUPPLIES. Our wagon trai returned Sunday with about 150,000 pounds of grain, equal to u balf forage of the com- mand for ten days longer. Some citizen teams, pressed into the service, are ulso on tho way irom Fetterman With supplies for us, Que or two couriers have ur- rived here from Reno during the past week, bringing informstion of the surrender of 200 ponies and thirty stand of arms to Colonel Mason, at the Red Cloud Agency. Wo have also learned that two Sioux Indians wero gent from the agency to locate Crazy Horse’s camp, instructed to report to us on their return, RANDALL'S FIGHT. Major Randall, we have just lcarned, is at Rtno, with seventy-six Crow Indians, alter whom ho went before the coluwm set out, On his way trom their country to Reno he 18 said to have had a fight with some of the hostile Cheyennes, and capturea forty ponies, One Crow was wounded, General Crook Tegards this httle collision as a fortunate circumstance, as it will belp to confirm the hostiles in the impres- sion now becoming prevalent among them that .they ure nowhere safe from the assaults of the whites and their Indian allies. Our Indian scouts have not returned yet from Red Cloud, and there is some uneasiness manitested on ac- count of the delay, of which they and the two spices sent to Crazy Horse are the occasion. Weare wasting good weather and consuming our supplies here idly for want of knowledge of the evemy’s whereabouts. Major Jordan, of the Ninth infantry, tells me that he received a letter trom Red Cloud to-day stating that thirty-tive lodges of northern bostiles had sarrenderca there on December 2, and 200 Indians the day after. General Crook says he has no advices on that subject, but tout the reservation Indians continue to give up their guns and ponies to Colonel Mason, MIDNIGHT WEATHER REPORT, Wan DerantMent, Orrics ov Tox Citky Sina Uvricer, Wasuinctox, Feb, 6—1 A.

A Woman Murdered by Her Former Husband. JEALOUSY AFTER DIVORCE. The Sabbath morning broke yesterday upon a deod of blood in Crosby street, near the Italian quarter, just below Prince street, where the dingy tenements frown at each other across the dirty way. There, at day- break, a woman’s half nude form lay prostrate on tho sidewalk. As Officer Conway, in pureuance of his duty as patrolman, caine on the scene at dog watch, about six o’clock, the woman was still alive, and in her bosom was sticking yet, to the depth of five or six inches, an fron tool called a reamer, used by machinists for cut- ting end boring holes in block.tin, When the officer arrived he rapped for asstetance and a few early stragglers closed around the prostrate figure. In the excitement of the moment, a man who saw tho wound Inflicted, told how the decd was done and passed away. In a few ininutes two other officers arrived, The dying woman was taken to the station house of the Fourteenth precinct, in Mulberry Street, the reamer having been meantime removed, and an ambulance was telegraphed for. Belore its arrival she was dead. Her body was then sent to the Morgue, The murdered wo- man was Mrs, Mary Flood; she about thirty-five years ola, the divorced wife of James Flocd, alias McFarland, and she boro even in her dying moments traces of early beauty in form and feature. Her former husband was ber murderer, So mueh in brief for the story of this crime, the cause of which was jealousy, Its history is soon told, but was not so speedily ascertained. It was thus that tho police obtained their information which led to these con- clusions:—- THE MURDER. When Officer Conway went on post in this vicinity at six o’clock yesterday morning he proceeded along Crosby stroct trying the doors, in accordance with polive regulations, until arriving ut No. 52, beside the stoop of which he found the dying woman. His rap for assistance drew a little knot of observers as well us two brother officers, Among this kpot was one who described the manner in which the woman was pursued and struck down, He told how a man whom he knew, named James Flood, rushed from the hallway of the house No, 55 Crosby street, just as the officers on post were being relisved, in pursuit of the woman who was flying 1m mortal terror before him, Sho dashed up the stoup und threw herself against the doo: of No, 62, ho said, on the opposito side of the gireat, as if expocting to find it open. But it was closed ust’ and refused to yield bsfore her ulfrighted assault. Jo an instant Flood was ut ber side holding aloft the iron reamer. Finding her progress arrested she threw up both her arms und cried tor mercy. The next instant tho weapon wos buried in her breast and tho assassin flee- ing irom the spo. Up toward Prince street he ran aud then disappeared down toward Broadway. With the life biood streaming from her trigbttal wound she stood ap instant looking wild and rigid, then tottered and fell backward on the sidewalk where sho was'discovered'by Officer Couway. Tins story told, the narrator himself passed trom the scene. While the bouy was bemg removed an Italian lodger at No, 62 said ho heard the noise the woman made at the door when trying to enter, looked vut and saw a man he could not new recognize strike tho weapon into the woman’s bosom, viore tue man’s arin teil she cried “for God's sake, James, don’t surike me!”? When the dying woman had been removed to the station bouse the ollicers visited the house No. 55, from which, scantily attired, she had been pursued. Un the first or ground floor is a grocery store, kept by one William Ailkur, a German.

Alikar Was arrested in consequence, and finding him- gcil trapped, be told his story, wuich the police give substantially us fotlows:— ALPKAR’S STORY, ‘The woman had been a sharer of bis couch during the night. Just vetore daybreak they Were startied by violent kicks at the hall door, Between the kicks they heard the votco of Jumes Flood, recoguized by the woman, ordering her in angry tones to open the door and admit him. While be kicked at the hail door with a vigor Which it was feared would very svon cause itto yield, the affriguted woman, without watt. ing to dress, nade her way through the store door and into the strect as faras possible Flood heard her and pursued with the result already told.

[From the Auburn (N. ¥.) News, Feb. 2.) Two gangs of convicts were yesterday detailed to clean the snow from tho walks on the State street front of the prison, in charge of their respective keepers. At about half-past three o’clock in the alter” noon Keeper Harry Casler, a young man about twenty- six yoars of age, was superintending his gang near tho north gate, when two of the convicts refused to work. Ho immediately ordered them to return to their shop— State shop No, 1, One of them started to obey, but the other, uamed Barr, retused to go, saying that bo should siay outside until the rest of the gang went in irom their work. The officer reprimanded Barr tor his insvlence and disobedience of orders, and again com- manded him to pass in at the gate, Just then u citizen spoke © the keeper, and, as he turned his head to re- ply, Barr made a savage attack ou hita, striking him a | heavy blow with a shovel, cutting directly on a line with the eyebrow on tho leit side of the forehead und fracturing the skull, Mr, Casier fell to the walk, when Burr repeated the blow, cutting him across the leit cheek aud jaw, and followed this up with a third murderous blow, which cut through the neck directly under the base ofthe skull Tho unlortunate keeper attempted to rise atter the Orat blow, and at the second gave a groan and closed his eyes. Alter the third cus of the shovel the brutal murderer kicked the prostrate man im the face, and just at this moment, while the crowd dare not interfere, a convict at work with the other gang at some distunco rushed to the spot with an upraiwed pickaxe and threatened to kill Barr if he struck Aguin, Barr then ran toward ino south end of the prison, shovel in hand, and was ar- rested by Keeper Brepnan, He still retained the shovel, and when taken io charge he bad a knife in his pocket. Barr was at once taken in charge by the dephty keeper and placed in the prison jail. In the meantime Mr. Casler was removed to tho prison hospital, dying within a few minutes after the last terrible wound, ‘Thus another chapter of horrors is added to prison history in Auburn, and, another con- viet murderer given r to that class of maudlin sympathizers who insist upon soltening th laid down by law for the transgressor.

Courier-Journal, Feb. 2.) ‘The people 1n the West End were agitated yesterday by the shocking details of a horrible matricide, as the report of tho affuir spread from the scene of the bloody deed. Tim McCarthy, a lad of nineteen years, and the son of Mr, Mike McCarthy, who lives at No, 223 Portland avenue, near Seventeenth street, whilo in a fit of insanity about nine o’clock, killed his mother, Mrs. Joanna McCarthy, with a hatchet. ‘There was no witness to tho terrible affair, save a little sour year old boy, who could not give an tutelligent accountof whut hesaw.
