regard to General Sheridan’s expedition into the 
Indian country. Colonel Tappan, of the Indian 
Comniisson, does not hesitate to say that he believes 
that General Sheridan, if he encounters the Indians, 
will lose all his horses and come buck barefoot. He 
defies anybody to point to an instance within tbe 
past ten years where a party of hostile Indians have 
ever been whipped, lie says they can hover around 
onr troops, harass them at will, and escape with the 
greatest ease; and that a baud of Indian warriors 
can travel a hundred miles in a day, when the 
toughest company of the United States troops 
which can be found cannot go above fifty. On the 
other hand, military men generally have the greatest 
confidence In the result of the present operations.
