The Nevada and Marysville papers state that
i Col, Henley is busily engaged in removing the
II Nayada, Yuba and other Indians to the Mona

4 states upon the authority of the Indian Agent,

| Bear river across to the Yuba, including those
| AZ Nevada, Grass Valley, Rough and Ready,
and along Deer Creek. Nearly sll those scat

on Monday they were crossed over the Yuba, at

number will probably be increased, between the
