Cross entered the printing office of the Coos County Democrat, published by Hon. James M. Rix, where he remained two years, when he went to Canada, to assist his father in steamboat-building, and visited the cities and other places of interest in British America. When twenty years old he went to Cincinnati, Ohio, and was for a time employed as a reporter in the Atlas office, and was afterward local editor of the Cincinnati Daily Times. He was for two sessions of Congress special correspondent of that paper at Washington, during which time he also wrote spicy letters for the New York Herald and other influential journals, in all of which he displayed considerable ability as a political and general writer. While at Washington he was appointed Adjutant of an Ohio regiment of infantry raised for service in Utah, but for some reason the regiment was not mustered into service. In 1857 Col. Cross traveled extensively in the United States and Canada, and contributed a series of interesting letters to the newspaper press.

Afterward he journeyed to the "Plains" of the far West, to the wild Indian region of northern Minnesota, and the country of the Yellow Medicine River and the Upper Missouri. While visiting the latter places he was associated with a party of trappers and buffalo hunters, during which they had several encounters with the
