The march from Fort Fettermpn was
over a disgustingly barren country, which
seems to ptorluee nothing hut sage
brush. alkali water, grasshoppern and
mountain fever, the latter, fortunately. of
amild type. Everybody welcomed this
addition to the army. for nll-mn'aments
had been postponed until their firival.
Gen. Crook. with his usual activity} will

he sent out south to the Powder and
nrrth to the Rosebud. If he strikes the
enemy in the bad lands and gets a fight
out of them, the army will more on to
the Yellowvtone to reprovision. Con
siderable anxiety is felt about Terry‘s
movement, as nothing has been heard
from him since his first dispatch. except,
that he is at thejunotion of the Rosebug
and Yellowstone, although three cour
ters have been sent him from here.
Every available fighting man goes out.
The wagon train of one hundred and
fifty teams, guarded by some two hnn
tired teannsters, in charge of Quarter
master Ferry, will park at this spot,
which will be the base oi supplies. The
Utes have failed to put in an appearance
but they are still expected. and orders
will be leit for them to follow withou
delay. The health of the company ill
remarkably good, not one serious case
being reported. 'il‘he conning campaign
will be cart ied out on Spartan principles.
as may be judged from the following
general order: “The oflicers and men
will each carry one blanket only, four
days' provisions in their saddleliags, 150
rounds ammunition and a single change
of under clothes." Three hundred and
titty pack mules will accompany the ox
pedition, carrying ten days‘ additional
rations and extra am munitton, the latter,
amounting to some three hundred thou
lsund rounds. If We have luck to meet
the Indinuh there will he a hot content,
for every one has blood in his eye and
yearns to get a chqncc to revenge hls fal'

‘ Sully diwputch says Indians from hostile
icanips have arrived with reports that|
Terry's commnnddmd encountered the
hostiles and the latter had been flltllket'
by Gen. Gibbon and badly beaten. The ‘
Indians acknowledge 100 Wounded and 1
that Sitting Bull had been shot. through
both thighs. They are quiet on the sub
ject of the number killed. As an Indian
can travel by direct. route from Sitting
Ball to the Agency sooner by seVeml
days than a courier could reach Bismarck
front Terry, the report is generally be
lieved here.

The grand mistake that young men
make during the first ten years of their
business life, is in idly waiting for the
chance. By this course they are fasten.
ing themselves for life to a lower stratum.
These years are golden years in which.
everything which tends to personal or
professional excellence should be an ob
ject of daily pursuit. To such men,
doors of success open of themselves at
last. Work seeks the best hands as nat- ‘
urally as water runs down hill ; it never‘
seeks the hand of a trifler, or ot one
whose only recommendation is that he
needs it.

The first years at every man's busi
ness or professional life are years of edu
cation. They are intended to be in the
order oi nature and Providence. Doors
do not open to nmnn until he is pre
pared to enter them. We think it is the
experience oi most successful men, that
whenever they are thoroughly prepared
to go up higher, the door-to at higher
place opened of itself and they had ncnll
to enter. ' i
