sacrificed, whilst at the same time the
paid and proper defenders Of our country
are in inactivity and sloth This applies
to the commander of the forces on the Pa
ci6c, and no one else.
Whilst these things are apparent--whilst
all these difficulties encompass the Terrific
ry, and surround it as it were with man
tie, there can be but one opinion, and that
is, that whatever character the present
congress is made up Of, whether it be
wool " or midnight" SC, or not, that
liberal appropriations should be made to
indemnify persons who have staked every
thing that they possess, in order to defend
their homes, their persons and everything

Foo IN LoNDoN.-The London papers
relate large number Of fatal accidents
which occurred in the city on Thursday
and Friday, Nov. Is and l6, from very
dense fog. A number of these occurred in
docks. In the West India dock, four sea-
men were drowned in endeavoring to get
on board their ships, two Of them belong
ing to each. In London docks custom
house officer, who had Just left his vessel,
on returning to it walked of the quay
His cries were heard but he was drowned
before he could receive assistance. Two
men were drowned also in the Blackwell
dock. "A number of foot passengers in the
streets and on the sidewalks, were run
over by carts and omnibusses; and many
omnibusses suspended running. The river
steamboats, were obliged to suspend their
regular trips, and number of collisions on
railroads occurred. A great many robber-
les were committed under cover of the fog,
as no police officer could see thief at any
distance. A jeweller had plate of glass
worth 9s broken, and jewelry Of the value
Of ESQ taken from his shop window.

mercy of the sea, but the schooner Potter,
Capt. TUCKER, coming in sight, towed her
back to Victoria. The injury being but
slight, was speedily repaired and she arri-
we'd at this port on Wednesday evening,

The scow from Bellingbam Bay, in pass

COON, on Sunday last, was fred into by q
party Of Indians reported to be 80 strong.
Upon the fact being reported to Col Casey
at Fort Steilacoom, by Adjt Gen. TIton,
tho Col. detailed an officer and 20 men oI
the 9th regiment to go to the point with
Gen. Tilton in the steamer TTareler. But
as an accident had prevented the TraUsle,
from reaching Steilncoom, Gen. Tlton took
canoe with Eve friendly Indians and &c
companied by Lieut.. Mendall of the Topo

Of the enemy. They had probably gone in

friendly Indians from Jack Simmons reser

as they are familiar with the trails from the
Sound to the prairies, will probably be able
to find them.

Skokomish Indians, would not again take
the field, bat we are informed, through re

is now cooperating with the Northern Bat

officers in that direction.
We are also informed that the company al

From the war east Of the Cascades, We
