Brotherton, of the 7th United States Infantry, in the Northwest, during the winter of 1880. Crow King was in importance to Sitting Bull among the Sioux warriors as Sheridan was to Grant in the late War of the Rebellion. The surrender was received with great re- joicing by both officers and men of the long-suffering army of the frontier, and by the people of the land was hailed with joy, as practically the close of the Indian War in the Northwest. Although popular rejoicing in this belief was pr...emature Sitting Bull, with the main body of able-bodied hostiles, with his usual good fortune or good generalship, having eluded capture and escaped to the British lines yet the rank and importance of Crow King in the Sioux councils was so great, his influence with the savage tribes under him being almost unbounded, that the effect of his retiring with his people from the war-path was most salutary in the cause of peace. Among Indians of all tribes there are invariably found a number of subordinate chiefs who really desire to remain on the war-path, and nothing save actual suffering or ne- csssity will ever persuade or force them to surrender.
