Two INDIANS KILLED.-We learn that on Tues
day last two Indians were killed in the vicinity
Of Mill Seat Creek by MIR. Mackley, son Of the
gentleman whose death we noticed last week
The Indians who were killed were friendly to
the whres, and were IN search of sirayed cattle,
but unfortunately they were not recognised as
such by Mr. Mackley. Too much care could
not be used in the Indian hunts that fire.
of few friendly and trustworthy Indians is ever
productive of great harm. and the life or prop
erty Of the whites is sure, sooner OF later, to pay
the penalty.

From the following paragraph, taken from the
Aha Colitoynia, it would appear that he San

tion 10 90 by default:
This famous movement having ended in smoke,
or sumeiliing worse, hope another etfori

1t is to be hoped that the remarks above quo
ted, do injustice to The members of the Conven-
ton. CIher papers, and correspondents, speak
in similar language, however, and from itle very
awkward manner in which the members ot The
Convention have commenced this great work, 1t
can hardly be expected that they will retrieve
their character at the eleventh hour.
we confess that the great paride made by the
San francisco Executive Con mirtee led us to
expect much of valuable INFORMATION coucern-
ing the snI,iect for the consideration of which
the Convention was convened. Others lnduged
ia the reasonable expectation, and if ii
should be disappointed, Instead of the interests
sd the great road being advanced, they will be
iei.sed most decidedly. A lukewarmness on
the Pacific coast ip reference to this enterprise
where the chief advantages from its ccomplisii-
ment will be enjoyed, will by no means enoonr-
age the enthusiasm of our eastern friends wi,,se
prospect Of advantage is more uncertain and rc

River Valley. returned to this place on Nednes-
day last. Col Wrigh; aud command did not
have an opportunity OF participating in any OF
the skirmishes which took place before the rati-
tcation of the late treaty. He had, however,
an opportunity of seeing the principal chiefs
and from his observations. is of the opinion that
no more difficulties will occur this fall or winter
with the Indians.
For the more perfect security of the settlers
in that quarter, post was established i'll the vi
cinity of Table Rock, in Rogue River Valley.
There will, therefore, be snfiicieut number of
troops in the North this winter to meet ally
emergency.
The health of the troops is uniformly good.
Col. Wright is of the opinion that nearly all
the Immigrants have arrived who intend coming
inon Tie Yreka trail this year, and that the re-

dncive Ut no evil Consequences.

SHASTA ScHooL.-It affords great pleasure
10 state that the school in our town is in very
flourishing condition. The scholars now num-
hcr about thirty, and all are rapidly progressing
ia their various studies Those in attendance
all quite young yet, and none are pursu-
ing anv other than the common English BRAN
ches of education. Our school could not be
placed under better superntendance than that
al the gentleman who now has it III charge-AIr
Bepnoni Whtton. He is an accomplished scho-
lar and is an experienced teacher of the young.
Too much interest could not be taken by pa
rents IN this matter of town school. The sys-
tenn under which the present has been started
we believe TO be good one. 1t might, how
ever. be changed in respects for the better.
In this State it is especially necessary that the
school-room 81 on be rendered inviting to chill
dren. Their labors should be surrounded with
as many comforts as possible, and no pains should
be spared to afford both teachers and scholars
encouragement and assistance. To build up
good name for our State, we must have Free
Common Schools established upon good basis
and maintained at all hazards
