these were the true facts of the case caused such

the trial came off few days since before Judge
Arlington. The result was the acquittal of Dr.
Campbell land the dismissal of the case without
trial against Major La Motto. The evidence in
the case being the same against both officers the
Judge stated, as his opinion, that no conviction

which resulted in the death of the latter, who is
said to have been in fault.

twelve days in the mountains, subsisting entirely

Mr.. Davenport thinks the remainder of the party
were all killed by the Indians. He was pursued
and passed by them, but by keeping the mountains
he eluded them, and arrived at Gardiner, after
twelve days OF the most intense suffering. He had
nothing left but hat and boots when he arrived.

than fifty wagons, all in and those will soon be

and generally in fine spirits. They have brought
into the Territory great number of cattle and
horses, and, as a general thing, have plenty OF
money.
A. A. Skinner, Indian Agent, left for the Rogue

Short Widophood.-A few days since an Eng.

blooming widow to mourn his departure. She was
OF Irish BIRTH and received the coincidence of many
OF her kind hearted countrymen, who went with

who had another object in view, that Of rescuing
their countrywoman from her state of widowhood.
Before the grave had been filled, one of them step

the widow and the bystanders, claiming a former
intimacy as the strong ground why he done 80.
This was demurred to by another of the party who
also laid claim to her hand, and as she was unw-
