Unable to meet the Whites in open field, the Cheyennes, in accordance with their custom and the genius of their league, are using the knife. A man at the Agency breaks his leg, and Hollway, a son of the agency physician, is nursing the invalid, when a Cheyenne brave creeps into the sick man's hut, and plunges a knife into young Hollway's heart. The next victims are two Irish herders, Monahan and O'Leary, who are murdered on the Plains. Will Watkins is killed at King Fish ranch. A government train is stopped, and four men scalped; a crime in which the Osages, neighbours of the Cheyennes, are known to have borne a part. A company of infantry has left Fort Leavenworth, a company of cavalry has left Fort Sill, in search of these murderers; but the line is long, the land is open, and the bands have burnt the grass for many leagues. Who knows whether any of this White blood will

, and asked him what she was to do. He said she must go to New Zealand, and he would join her there. She asked how that could benefit him, but he gave her no answer, and a few days after she learned that he had married a widow with £50,000. The action in this case was brought by a Mr. Thelwall, who sued Major Yelverton for maintenance of his wife. This plan was adopted in order to obtain the evidence of Mrs. Yelverton as the validity of the marriage.--The case was tried before Chief Justice Monahan, and a special jury, in Dublin. The two leaders of the Irish bar were engaged-- Whiteside for the plaintiff, and Brewster for the defendant. The testimony of Mrs. Yelverton is clear, explicit, simple, and perfectly satisfactory. In the beginning of the cross examination, Brewster addressed her as Miss Longworth. She replied with infinite dignity, "my name is Yelverton." The effect was electric. The vast crowd testified their applause by shouts which it was impossible to suppress.

Three times were they forced to give way, and three times did they rally only to meet with greater slaughter from the determined courage of our troops.--Our men charged with the bayonet and drove the enemy before them down the hill, and by a well-directed volley scattered them, like frightened sheep, through the woods. In this action, at this point, Col. Hansbrough was wounded, Capt Monahan, of the Braxton company, was killed, and Capt. Deshler, aid to Col Johnson, was wounded. Several other officers were wounded. Our loss at this point was severe, owing to the close encounter of the combatants. In the meantime a consider this force flanked to the right of our encampment, and made a furious assault upon the entrenchments. Hiding behind logs, they kept up a sharp fire for some hours, but were repulsed with considerable loss. It was here that Capt. Anderson, of the ar
