Troop» in tlie Mouth. We notice that much complaint is being made about the scarcity of U. S. troops in this department. Some Re publicans, without due consideration, at once lay the blame at the doors of the Democracy, and say it is due to their clamor for the reduction of the army. The truth is, our army is large enough now to spare 10,000 men for the Idaho Indian war—instead of 800— if necessary; but they are in the South where there has been no need of them for ten years past. The cause of the meagrenessof the force here is in the use of the army In the South last Fall to carry the election and put the Radi cals in power—throttling free States for the purpose and threatening the existence of our liberties as a people. Some of those troops, says the Stand- ard, have now at this late day been ordered from the South to this Coast. It is well for our people to brood over these misdeeds of Radicalism and to remember that, though the million ma jority of the Democrats have been cheated out’of their President, yet it is only the force of this overwhelming Democratic opinion that has turned the Radical leaders from their wicked designs. I I Melt-Evi <te ut. I I New York Tribune says there is “no break in the Democratic party South.” Why should there be? The Democratic party has nothing to break about. There is not enough left of the Republican party to make a dent in the Democracy. The Democrats are not disturbed because the Republicans have stolen the Government and are running it on Democratic principles. Least of all are the Democrats disu nited or divided on that account, Their principles unite them. Their great majority keeps them united, Their possession of the affirmative of the question: Is the theft of the Gov ernment a crime? makes them feel pretty comfortable and hopeful, and attaches all persons morally and intel lectually entitled to the right of suf frage to them. Why should they “break?” Our Knobs Abroad. Chief Jo»«pii.

Chap man found Chief Joseph's band,alter a long and tedious march, with ins lull force,camp ed here today, in an almost inaccessible de tile between two high mountains, near the river. Gen. Howard formed bis command ill a circle, including his pack tram, for pro tection, ami commenced the attack on the savage* with three howitzersand a Gatling gun and a full force of men. Tho tight was heavy and constant and lasted from 1 1*. m . until S p .M. Both parties were pretty well tired out. Our command numbered 400 men, and Joseph had 300 brave and deter mined warriors. The Indians fought in a recumbent position and kept up a steady lire trom behind the rocks, trees and every ad vantage over rise of ground. Our men were forced to approach through an open table land and received a galling tire from them. There was desultory tiring from the rifle pits all day. In I the afternoon Captain Jackson arrived with a full company ot cavalry—are inforcement which nas joyfully received, Their entire camp, which whs very rich in plunder, was captured. squaw who fell *. A A.squaw into our hands says that seven Indians were killed outright, and the number wounded is very.large. Thirteen are known to have been killed. She says that the Chief wanted to tight and die at the river, but the women urged and finally prevailed upon him to re treat. There are eleven killed and twenty- foui wounded on our side. Among the lat ter was Capt. Bancroft, 4th artillery, badly, in the left side, received while gallantly char ging the enemy. Lieut. Williams was wounded in the arm and leg, while coura geously holding a disputed and important position.
