Select Poetry.
BT zolyrano srtzn JOIII7SON
If that indeed were fact wltich seems'
A pleasant universal fiction,
That's daily born of youthful dreams,
Nor dies of daily contradiction -7
That every mortal has a mato,
And counterparts so blindly groping,
lo find,perohance,thruugh fogs or fate,
The end of all their weary hoping—
I'd. say: Wkate'rer Ike:ye done
To manhood's earnest work befitting, -
Be consecrate to her alone •
Who waits ferine,though
Who puts the ejins of pain auray.
Lest grief too' soon her Cheek should
furrow;.
Who heats femptation back to. day, . .
That I may" see some glad to,nscorrow
who dare neiplueic a flower that grows
Beyond the=path God spreads before her,
Nor ever think of passing those;
That bloom beside it to adore her;

fury along the whole line.- Charge after

More than...one hundred cannon shook
the hills with their hostile thunders. At.
our cenire. caisson after caisson was
exrloded, and the stream of wounded
men moving painfully and eagerly to the
hospitals in rear, was momentarily grow

were hurried to the crossing north of the
Round •Top", to aid our comrades there,
who were so heavily pressed. Shells
and shot were dancing around and
amongst us, and everywhere the dead
and dying and wounded afforded evi'

our litres parer wavered; not ose inch of
ground was given to the enemy on this

of the woods. The enemy . did not 'show
any signs of activity, but indications of
their retreat were plenty., • .
The cloudy morning ended in a day of
heavy and continuous rain, and the two
armies seemed- quiet as the death that
reigned amongst thdite hills, while the
weeping clouds washed off the blood that
treason had abed on Pennsylvania's soil
in defence of. Slavery and an Anarchy in
a civil Government, that must have sent
America: back to barbarism, if its hopes
had not been ended by our great victory
at Gettysburg.
We, patiently took the. rain, perched
up among the rocks, for it was evident
that we had won, and the end of the war
seemed nearer. It was the beginning of
the end.
- NO - fighting occurred on the Friurth.—
We bad little to etit—less to do. We
awaited - news with patience, though none
came, and slept . on our rugged beds, and
in our wei blankets, and, in many eases,
with our stomachs not over well supplied,
with satisfaction and'comfort, for we felt
good, notwithstanding..
On the morning of July 5, we found
the skirmishers of the enemy gone,•and
we moved, off, 'at once, in pursuit, our
brigade taking the lead. As we passed
over the ground held by the rebels, the
evidences of the severity of our fire were
multiplied. The trees and fences,fields,
houses
- and orchards bore
.testimony to
ate power of the lead and iron - hail with
w.hioh, we drove back the invaders of the
Keystone. Great b.::rns and farm houses,
and scores of tents, full of their wound
ed, in every fornit;f mutilation, succeed
,ed, while the broken finces, and fields
streaked with the tracks of moving trains
and troops, gave us the knowledge Of the
course of their march. They had set
fire to many of the fences along the road,
and as we neared the mountain, we saw
that their rearguard was not far in ad
vance. 'We began to pick up a great
many straggling soldiers from their
army. Some, because, being unwilling
to' serve them, they Lund this an oppor
tunity 'to get away from the hated life,
if even it were to a prison; some because
they were exhanst ed, and could not help
it, - and many who had wandered oil to
houses, seeking food or plunder. Along
the road the people met our advancing
skirmishers with the most amtravagant
manifestations of, joy. and at Fairfield,
near the Gap of the mountain, we over
took the rebels, and opened fire upon
them with our batteries, our skirmish
ers pushing.out to capture those who
lagged.

Indian Fight at Muscleshell--A Graph—
ic, Topographic and ;Autographic
Account.
Eorron POST :-I arrived here, par
steamer Deer Lodge, this evening, at -7
o'clock, and to Col. Denning, Capt. Itay
Andrews, Maj. Brewer, and other gentle
men residing at Museleshell, I am in
debted for the following news which,
perhaps, has-not yet reached. you. On
the 20th of March a party of mon from
.Thompson's Gulch aid Diamond City
arrived here from Black Butte, where
they had been poisoning wolves and hunt
ing, and had been surprised, attacked
and driven in by, a large party of Crows,
they having been compelled to fight al
most Incessantly, for three days, and ft-,
nally escaped . in the darkness of night,
after losing several valuable horses and
their stock of furs. They arrived at this
place on foot, worn out, and completely
destitute, and were kindly Cared for, by
the resideiats. , Although their Misfor
tunes, and most fortunate escape should
have served as a -sufficient warning to
Muscleshell, it was little .heeded, for,
having long enjoyed a season . of peace,
every one proceeded, as usual, with their
industrial pursuits.
THE ATTACH ON NUSOLESHELL-PERSONAL
Smith and Andrews were getting out
timber from up the' Museleshell e with
four. choppers and three men hauling,
Capt. Andrews and Maj. Brewer driving
two‘of the teams, A white woman; Jett
ny Mortimer, with formerly kept the Re
solute Hall, in Helena, and two squawe
had gone to carry dinner to the men.—
Brewer had unloaded, and was about
fire hundred yards on his .return from.
town. Andrews was about half a 'mile
from the stockade, Doming in, and flie
women were between the two. Suddenly..
and unexpectedly the' unearthly war
whoop broke upon the stillnese ; and six
ty naked, paint ed,sereeching red demons
came charging down the hill; and, in, .a.
moment, were close upon their , victims.
M.j. Brewer jumped .from his -wagon,
and, firing as he went, retreated through
a perfect storm of arrows and Lullefs,
unhurt, to the stockade. , The terrified
females fled, screaming, towards= the
Fort, but were soon Overtaken by the
Indians, who shot one of the squaws ,
through the thigh, inflicting a terrible
wound. The white woman, with' genit-'
ins heroieru, stepped to assist her dusky
companion, and had succeeded in raising
her to her feet, when she. too, received
a bullet through the neck from an Indian`
rifle, which brought her to . the groUnd.
The savages, with a demohiacyell,rush
ed upon her, and in a moment, her scalp - ,
reeking with blood, was infhe air. Capt.'
AndrewS, being farther out than the
others, and having the whole party of
Indians between him and the town, ad
vanced cautiously, firing at intervals, and
at long range, at the Indians in pursuit
of the women. After firing a half dozen.
shots, he found that he was without cape,
having lost his cap-box in the exeitenient.
Upon turning to look "for it, he discciver
ed another party of Indians. Then chme
a series of tall running, dodging and
crouching behind logs and trees on .thts'
part of Andrews, for it was in reality a
game of life and death, with the odds .
largely in favor of the Indians.' Capt..
says that at one time his scalp seemed
so loose on his cranium that, he doubts
if it would have withstood 'a
moderate
gust of wind. Atthis juncture Andrews
left the main trail and made for the bank
of the Muscleshell, where were a feW
large cottonwood trees, for protection,
amid a flight ofrarrows and bullets. „His
clothes were frequently pierced, and the
rim of his hat cut into ribbons. He,
with much difficulty, kept hiS course;
frequently turning and leveling his now
worthless gun at his enemies, causing
them to drop into the sage brush to avoid
his (supposed) fatal shots, thereby giv
ing him a better opportunity to make
good his retreat. At, last, the Indians
bad exhausted their amunition, and An=
drew's oft•repeated ruse had become old
with his pursuers who, perceiving %Iris
helpless condition, now rushed upon him
with upraised war clubs. Clubbing his
empty rifle, he met them like a veteran
and dealt the foremost Indian a blow on
the bead that placed him hors da, combat,
anti as the others were closing in upon'
him, a small party, headed by Col.-Den
ning, rushed to his rescue. Capt. says,
in a moment more, he should have been
compelled to "pass in his checkii."- The
Indians soon beat a hasty retreat frorir
the field. Oh finding the- woccian, a hOre
rible spectacle was presented. Lying
unconscious upon' the, ground, scalped
and bruised and bleeding 'from the mur
derous war clubs, she was a sight - cal
culated to appal the stoutest heart of
that brave little party. She - was imme
diately carried to the stockade and every
thing that could 'be done, was accom
plished for her relief. Strange' to say,
when we saw her this evening, ;the had
almost entirely recovered, and related,
with great. coolness, her terrible adven
ture. Capt. Andrews; who is the only
one here' versed in Surgery, deserves
much credit for the care:of the wounded,
who are now out. of danger. Some are
of the - opinion that the Indians belonged
to the Santee Sioux, but a majority be
lieve they were River Crows. So end
eth the first chapter of the Indian hor
rors. There are others to be told, which
speak volumes for the courage and bra
very of the inhabitants of this little
stockade, for the account of which, I am
indebted to the gentlemen above men
tioned.

TEE ATTAOK ON THE STOCKADE
Oa the Bth day of the present month,.
Muscloshell was again attacked by a
party of one .lindred and fifty Santee
Sioux, armed with guns and revolvers,
on foot. The first intimation had of their
presence was the firing upon and driving
in of a small party who were out bring
ing in fire wood. Oa theifirst alarm, be
ing given, all sprang for their arms,and
leaving ten men inside the stockade to
bovera retreat, if necessary,the remain
der of the party, about sixty in number
sallied :forth, determined to give the
Indians battle on the open ground after
their - ownfaehion. This was at 7 o'clock
in the mornine,and although the settlers
were outnumbered more than two to one,
the Indians well arraed,nothing daunted
they determined to wipe the red devils
out . Cr leave their scalps to adorn the
wakiups of the '"ioble" red men.
TUE FIELD ricau
Hostilities first commenced about 200
yards back of the stockade, and from
thence to the Muselesholl. " A small par
ty- led on by a German named Jakob
Leader, made - a charge upon a "coolie"
occupied by about sixty warriors under
command of a half-breed Sioux. Before
they had -proceeded far, however, the
man Leader received a bullet in the head
which killed him instantly,. and, another
man of the party, Greenwood byname,
was shot through the shoulders, a terri
ble wound, which brought him - to the
ground. Learning a lesson from this,•
toltroceed-more cautiously against their
'feels, parties were immediately dispaich
ed to ' flank the "coolie,' : which was ac
complished. Then from all sides the
settlers poured in their "leaden hail with
fearful aeouraey and telling, .effeet,
-:and- woundiitg the copper colored
-devils "by the dozen, - andsoon causing

Since this occurrence no Indians of any.
tribe haie come within sight of the town.
A careful watchie constantly kept, how

settlers short work will bo made with

At Fort Peck we were informed thut
a large war-party of Santee Sioux was
there on its ray to oleen out Muscleshell,
and their trail being visible in a number

They will not find the place unprepared,
and no danger is felt by the people.
