ABOUT IMMIGRANTS.
Of the immigrant* who come to this .
Pug*-t Sound country there teems to be
two grade* First a class which Josh
Billing* so humorously deacril>ea as
lacking, principally, in "go-aheadative
ness"- those who belong to the crow<l
that it Always "waiting for something
to turn np,' an<l always complaining
because that "something," they scarcely
know wliit, does'nt turn up They
come here without that knowledge of
life which the commonest observation
should have taught them, and with ex- 1
aggerated ideas concerning the country, j
,thinking fliat they may here obtain a
living and perhaps a competence with
•l»nt little if any labor; and when they
fairly realize that here, a* elsewhere,
wealth i* the reward of persistent in
du»try and economy only, and that if
they ever acquire it it will be at the j
ex pen ne of much sturdy labor, they are
disappointed and dish "art em l.and dis
gu*ted with the ei.uutry. Many of
tlietn would like a good farm—and
tin re are thousand* of them yet with
th<»r ri< h fruitage in store—but they
ln<k resolution and are not willing
to go into our*lbr( sts and hew one out,
and enjoy the fruit# of honest toil,
as hundreds of others have already
down They complain of tho obstacles
to t»e overcome, but do not remember
that the well cultivated lands of tho
wealthy New Kngland, a-, well its uianv
other of the Eastern States, were once
covered with almost a« dense a forest•
and with a s >il I«productive than
much of ouei, and that notwithstanding
ail t !j«t that strong wills unci stout arms
soon converted th<forests into
smiling plains.
111.- t»> -cond class art- men of it differ
cut mould, who come hero with reason
able expectations and firm resolve, and
liciici 1 are not disappointed. 'I hey are
like tilt? mole in th« *;tnd heap bound
to c«>nt«* out i »i»ht side up somewhere
and somehow mm who shape circum
stances, an it wfr>', and go to work with
a will, topush their way through and
" turn something up."
From them w never hear any « >m
plaint, and of such a t las-, of immigrants
wo cannot hive t *» many to help devel
op the varit d and rich resources of our
Territory.

not remember the names of many of
the leading chiefs. Four Horns and
Black Moon are Cncapapas. Each na

ar.d they all insist that they did not in
tend to fight the whites, but the San
tanas commenced the trouble some
years ago, and the white# crowd

took it up. Ho says »ls > that there are
no Yankonities now ith them. He
estimates the host ilea as now co'isivting
of from S.'Hhi to 1<»,<)0<) lighting men.
The San tan a■» and Cheyetiiies ar« the
most nuuiero ;s. There are no white
men co operating with them. They
have pleuty of ;/uns and pistols. He
think they g.-t ammunition from a
place called " the Burning Grounds,"
beyond the Black Hills. They captur
ed many horses during the tight and
but few mules The Black Feet Iridi-
aus made many presents consisting of
hones, etc., to the warriors to induce
them to retire from the conflict, but
after accepting the offering, the request
was not allowed. They watch con
tinually for whites, not intending to
attack, but fight hard in their own de
fou.se. They are living entirely on
meat which they find very hard to pro
cure owing to the close proximity
of tho whites. Crook's camp is now on
the Tongue river, south of the Yellow
stone, distance 1 £ days ride. The lu
diaus are in a constant state of alarm.
They estimate that in the fight of the
Littlcßig Horn the total number of Indi
ans killed was:) I .and his estimate of our
loss correspond< with what has hereto
fore been published. He saw five dead
Indians in camp, dressed in citizen's
clothes. The hurs.-n sacrificed around
the tent were the property of the dead
men, and were killed iu accordance
with their religion. The letter cou
cludea: While I am writing, a large
party of Inutile Indians have just ap
peared upon the opposite bunk of the
river, including the sons of the chiefs
Pout Horns and Black Moon, and are
now engaged iu telegraphing across the
river by .signs to the Indians on thin
