to have murdered Mr.. Gilbert, near Wasnlng-
ton about ten days since. An Indian named
Mose came to town on Saturday morning. ana
informed Bruce Garvey that the murderers OF
Gilbert were at an Indian camp, about mlie
and a half from town, and offered to go WIN
him and point them out. Garvey took tnree
men with him aud repaired to the camp, ana
saw an Indian called Jack, who had the powder
horn and sbetpouch which were taken from
Gilbert,s cabin in his possession. They lmme-
diately caught hold of Jack, and as they uoHe

and compelled them to desist. They then re-
turned to town, and got ten or fifteen men 10

by all except few squaws and children Inc
next morning Sheriff's posse went to the camp
and succeeded in arresting about twenty-five

armed and brought to town. Wemeh, and three
