Mr. Eure, like the transit of Venus, is a phenomenon that doesn't ocour more than twioe in a century, and for the world to lose sight of him entirely?to lobo him without the hope of a Ujiji at whidh he may ulti? mately turn op? would bo a very sud affair. Gen. Sheridan telegraphs that Gapt. Keyes, of the 10th oavalry, followed np the Gheyenne trail from Earrey's creek, on the Wuahita, to tho North* fork of the Canadian?eighteen miles? and captured the band, consisting of fifty-two Cheyennes, with seventy ponies.
