Indian Troubles, &c.


The intelligence received by the last arrivals
from the Golden State, give accounts of more
Indian troubles.
An Indian massacre took place on the Ka-
ma,h, in which 40 Indians had been killed, and
houses burned to the ground.
Mr.. McCombe, of Gregory S Express, informs
the Herald that intelligence reaceed Sacramento
yesterday to the effect tina; the Indians have be-
come hostile and in SCOTS Valley had killed
lao white men, and had property amounting 10
S25O,OO0. The Senators from the counties Of
klamath and Shasta, it is said, had applied to the
Government for aid 10 expel the Indians from
their present locality, aud to suspend the treaty
with them.
A bloody massacre took place at Sitka. Rus
sian America, Oh the 22hd ut. Forty-six Indians
OF the Starkin tribe, while on a visit TO the Snke
orColusa tribe, were inhumanIy bu,chered by the
latter. Indian vengeance has probably ere this
been taken.
The first importation Of ice from the Russian
settlements of the North Western coast entered
onr harbor on the llth instant Two hundred
and fifty tons were brought into the market by
the Pacific Ice Company, who had species
of exclusive privilege TO obtain ice on favor
able terms at Sitka. The enterprise is a new
and novel one, and will doubtless prove profita-
BILE.

the Baltimore Democratic Convention, will not
be present on account of i'll health.

IL Mr.. V. B. Palmer has so much faith in
advertising, and finding he could not keep be-
fore the people in some papers without is using
the editors as mean as he can, (and if he excels in
anything, it is in that line) in order to get them
to advertise him so that he can be sure of being
kept before the people. The cunning dog We
have reason enough to abuse hm-but we amt
agoing to advertise any more for him for nothing.
See what the GAINESVILLE Gazette says about
him:
This Palmer is one of the most persistent fell
lows in the world. We have been trying for
two or three years &c let him know that we would
not advertise for him I'LL he paid us up. We
have abused him by public advertisement and
by private letter, but he still continues to send us
advertisements requesting us to insert them and
charge him. We would as soon think of OPEN
ing an account with the ''man in the moon" as
with V. B. Palmer. All we wonder at is that
at this "enlightened day." printers will still al
low themselves 10 be taken in by him.

FRIEND CLEMENT
You are aware that the Committee on Com
merce, from economical and geographical con.
siderations, left out Of the Harbor Bill many
important points where public works have been
commenced and still remain unfinished among
which was Racine. Knowing as did that the
people of Racine and of Kenosha, had taxed
themselves enormously in improving the Har-
bors at their several towns, and that only small
sums OF money were necessary to render them
both available asIIarbors of refuge for the general
commerce Of the Lakes; caused special Re-
port to be made from the War Department certi-
flying to these facts. This Report with other
considerations submitted to the Committee has
induced that body to insert Racine for the same
amount as Kenosha, $4,000. This result I
am sure must be satisfactory to the citizens of
both towns, as it is palpable to every one &C.
quainted with Congressional proceedings, that a
rival war waged before Congress in seeking
harbor appropriations would certainly result in
defeat to both

fearful that measure like this will have an un-
favorable effect upon the new States-in depre-
ciating the value of real estate already improved
do not think so. Any additional stimulus to
western emigration, in my opinion, would have
contrary effect,-all we want is an increase of
wealth and population, to have the improved

now they will sell for only $40.

Remedies In Accidents.

HOiC TO render assistance in accidents we
digest for the benefit of readers especially in
country places, the best course to be adopted in
emergencies like the following -
In case Of a fractured or dislocated limb
Let the sufferer lay on the ground until couch,
door, gate, or plank, can be procured, for in ris-
ing him up he may die from fantness or loss of

along side of him, cover it with something soft,
and let men convey him home steadily, but do
not put him into vehicle of any kind
In FHs.--If any person fall in one, let him
remain on the ground, provided his face be pale:

seat, throw cold water on his head immediately.
and send for surgeon and get vein opened, or
fatal pressure of the brain may ensue.
In hanging or drOcnlrg, expose the chest as
quickly possible and throw ice water over
