A IbrUlbW nnd Illtberio In|>nl>ll.li««t Bepert- From tbe Chicago Tribune. 1 A member of Troop D, Seventh United States Cavalry, writiog to the editor of bia borne news paper, gives tbe following amusing account of the manner in which Gen. Caster entertained some Chicago nsttora who went out to hia do- mains for a little buffalo-shooting. We can aib sure tbe trooper that no report of tbe ‘battle, which be details so graphically, was ever offered tbe Chicago papers by any of the “Chicagoeae. They were too modest for that: • • • One almost equaling it we witnessed when tbe restive Chicsgocso were with us seeking that little relaxation from business carte; which they found. After a day’s suo- coMful chase, tbe party found itself about thirty miles from Hayae, tired and hungry. Selecting a camping ground for tbe night, fires were soon blazing obeerfully, buffalo and venison steaks roasting and frying nicely, and oh, what appetites to do them justice ! Next came wine and cigars, with which the Chicagoeae were well supplied, loxuriea for the trooper on tbe plains generally oat of roach, bat this ono timo we had them plenty, and enjoyed them accordingly. The General, wishing to afford his visitors a little emunement during the craning, enter, tained them with stories of surprise and atroci ties committed by ho, until he had them exeited to tbe proper pitch for pleaiant dreams, which bo kindly permitted them to enjoy nnlll midnight, when be geve tbe innooenl dreamers a finishing touch. The night proving favorable, tho troopers were divided, allowing about forty aa an attack- ing party aLd to represent Indians, the re- mainder to defend tho camp. Everything in readiness, the party on post londly challenged, “Wno comes there ?" A regular war-whoop from tbe attacking party was the answer re- oeived, then a volley from the carbines, a rat tling fire with revolvers, shouting, yelling and screaming—tho attacking party making use of all the Indian imaginable, and a great deal more. Tbe sleepers were by this time certainly wide-awake and made to understand wbst was tlie matter—that they were expeoted to fight if they expected ever again to see Chicago. The brave defenders fought nobly, shooting high in tbo air, entreating tbo Cbioagoeas to stand firm, fight for their homes and firesides, and to fight, bleed and dlo for tbeir coun try—never let tbe Stan, and Stripes be dis graced by allowing a few hundrod bloody Indians to whip us; nut moro lban ten to one at most, probably less; what's tbo coun try good for if not worth fighting for ? Some of iheiu did fight, and from them Ibe moat danger waa apprehended, as they fired at instead of over their antagonists. Of course they were qntekly placed nuder the wagons to keep them Irom shooting somebody. During tbe loll, one festive old chap was beard bewailing bis fste bitterly: “Oti, why did I leave my home and family, friends and business, every comfort In tbo world, to come out here nnd be scalped by tbs bloody lodians? Ob, dear, ob, dear, wbat shall I do toboaaved'f" At this, some one told hmi to grabn root; but bo said be cotildn't find tbe root. “Fifty dollars to any one that will take me ont of this," but there was no taker. Tbe fight lusted nosr one hour. Oo- cssionally acme one would drop, and either crawl away or be carried by a few comrades, when be would, of course, be all right and again pitch in. Finally viotory was declared for the defendera; and thm it waa tbe few remaining on Ibe list of wonudod received all thooare pos- aible, which meant plenty of wine. Quite a number wished they bad remained wounded, but it was too Isto for that. In tbe morning the wounded were reported sent to camp, but some of tbe inquisitive wished lo know wbat became of the killed and wounded Indians. “Oh, they are always earned off of tbo field a. soon aa they fall." That settled the matter. Whotber Ibe visitor, were informod of tho true state of affairs before their return home, I never loomed. One of them said be wouli^ have an aoconnt of the fight published. I never bsd the pleasnre of reading tbe aoconnt. Tbe Fatslve I’olley—A S onnlerlilnst from .Ulkseurl-tieus of Hon. John N fillip'.. Hr. Lotts, December 10.—John 8. l’helpe, for many years member of Congress from tbo southwestern part of Uissonri, and for a long time Chairman of the Ways and Means Com mittee, his written a letter on the paaslvo policy, which will bo published in tbe Times of this city to-morrow. Mr. Phelps says, among other tilings: I have opposed the passive policy from tbe outset; it is an abandonment of principle and will be destructive to tho organization of tbo Democralio party. Wbat can be gained by those who believe in a strict construction of the Constitution, who have opposed a con tnllxslion of power in tbe Government of the United States, who have resisted tbe attempted overthrow of tho rights of tbe State, who have opposed tbe trial of citizona by military com missions, who have resisted tho deprivation of the oitixen of the right of trial by jnry—by the adoption of this new heresy and tbe anpport of meu who have fought ns relentlessly on all these questions ? There is no “Liberal” party in this State, whatever. There was no valno in the liberal movement in Missouri, in IS70, bnt was derived from principles of tho Demo- cratir parly. Tho duty of the Democracy is to prepare for the coming contest. Gen. Grant is not the leader of bis party. He adopts whatever policy tbo party leaders dictate, and finding him ready to bo governed, they desire lit* renomintiaon. Let the Democratic party, then, reassert its standard principles, declare their aoquiescenoe in tho constitutional amend- meats, rcaolvo in favor of revenae tariff and taxes, and upon snob a platform, with gentle men aa standard bearers distinguished for boneaty, capacity and attachment to principle, who will never convive at aohemes of fraud, and I believe we aball succeed beyond a donbt in the coming Presidential election. Tho tree men of tho country not wedded to partisanship will unite with ut to inlrodaco economy in the public expenditure*, and pot an end to tyranny and malversation.
