Washington, June 28.—The War Department

Of an attack by the Esftttesoylnh bond of lndi 
1 aus on a party of herders, killing one herdsman 
and driving off leu horses ami twelve mules. 
| Mnj. Green, commanding the post, immediately 
mounted all the int?n tie could muster on the 
few mules and horses at his disposal, and sent. 
Lieut. Brodie in pursuit. He also sent Captain 
! Fmler with some infantry to support Brodie if 
possible. Brodie overtook the Indians in the 
mountains, about twelve miles from the post, 
and a fight took place Ju which two Indians were 
killed; but tho Indians were too uupiorous for 
his small force, especially as some of his men 
were ho poorly mounted thut they were unable 
to keep up with him. He was therefore com¬ 
pelled to retire. A strin-unt of I lie party had his 
horse shot under him. Maj, Green became very 
uneasy about a train on the route between Camp 
Goodwin and hts post, and also two wagons stmt, 
to meet the train, in order to bring in some sup¬ 
plies that were much needed in tbe garrison. 
He therefore sent Lieut. Brodie with fifteen 
men, all he could mount on mules, to meet the 
train and gum .1 it. As those Indians have been 
considered friendly, they approach parties with¬ 
out being suspected; hence the greater danger. 
Ho knows of no course to pursue toward t hem 
but extermination, for after the kind treatment, 
they have received, tie does not believe they can 
again In? trusted. All intercourse with them lias 1 
been suspended. Owing to the scarcity of horses,

'.mounted.

his present trip, as he will not have sufficient 
time, and the health of his wife will not permit. 
They assert, however, that he is desirous ot

sible opportunity, which will probably be in 
about eighteen months or two years.

THE SEASON. 
[Concluded from page 16, Jills number.] 
(tattle Creek, MIeh.,, June 1 1 *. —The weather for 
tlie latter part of May and t he fore part of this 
month was very warm ; but for the last ten days 
It has been quite cool, with nno or t wo frosts at 
night. Crops of all kinds are looking well ex¬ 
cept potatoes, which, owing tn the ravages of 
the bug, are very small. Farmers are securing 
Die Imy crop as fast ns possible. Wheat will ii<>

best for u number ol years. Wheat is wort Ii 
$1.40 par bushel for while, and $1.20 for red ; outs, 
45c.; corn, 45c.; potatoes, Toe.; wool, oOtfLYc.: but¬ 
ter, 15c.; cheese. 14e.; eggs, lie. per doz.—M. c, 
Danville, Dodge Co,, WIs., June 20. -Wheat 
will not lie till that, was anticipated a few weeks 
since, but still promises a fair crop from most 
fields. Corn, of which there is a larger breadth 
than usual, is very promising. Grass abundant 
for pasturage and hay. Potatoes look well where 
carefully attended to; some patches have been 
abandoned to tbe bugs, and a good many acres 
have been plowed up and other crops planted. 
Hand picking of old bugs mid their nits has 
proved Die most successful protection lo the 
vines, thus far. The season thus fur hns been a 
growing one.—l. c. is. 
tVnrrenubiiru, Johnson Co., Mo., June 21,— 
The small grain harvest in this eomil.v is about 
over. The wheat crop will average 20 bushels 
per acre. I suppose, from Die best Information 
obtainable, that there wore30,000 ucres in wheat 
in tliis county, and 10,000 in barley. Crops of 
CiiCh are good. The corn crop is very good 
much heavier than ever raised before in this 
county. There are more bugs of different kinds 
infesting our fields ibis year than ever known 
before. The tipple crop is not large, hut suffic¬ 
ient to supply home demands. The peach and 
grape crops larger than over known before* 
This count y is filled with stock of all kinds. 
(iriffin, Gu„ June 19.—So far we have bad too 
much rain for the cotton crop- Many farmers 
are in the glass, and still it ruins too much to 
give them time to get out. Wheat and oats were 
damaged to some extent by rust and mildew. 
Corn looks remarkably promising, and Ihe acre¬ 
age planted this year exceeds last by about fif¬ 
teen per cent. Cotton diminished about the 
same proportion. Fertilizers will bear a propor¬ 
tion of about three-fourths of last year, ami an 
acting well on the crops 60 far. Corn worth #1 
per bushel; wheat, $1-75; cotton, 17#c. per lb. 
Garden crops very fine and vegetables abundant. 
Fruit crop was never better,and peaches «;<■ 
now coming to market—worth $2 per bushel.—
