Sibley’s expeditionary forces are not expected to remain in Mexico more than,-another week unless its size is materially increased, it was said here today on good authority. Major Langhome, who, with the Eighth cavalry, is leading the expedition, was camped yesterday at Sante Fe Del Pilo, one hundred and twenty-five miles south of Boquillas, where he awaits supplies which are believed to have reached him by now.

Nothing further has been heard here regarding the report that 400 Yaqui Indians were marching towar 1 Langhorne’s column from Cuatro Ciengas. ——
