A correspondent of the Siskiyou Chron.
icte, infcrms that paper that the Indians or
Plttriver are assembling in large numbers.
evidently with hostile intentions. party
OF fourteen, stopped four days at Mr.. Lock
harts ferry, aud during their stay the In
dams showed unmistakable signs of hostility
Mr. Lockhart, in company with three Other
men, went to the upper ferry, but on arriv.
ing there found about one hundred Indians
making towards them with bows aud arrows
and apparently eager for fight. They i'm
mediately retreated, but some Of the Indians
ran ahead of them toward their camp,
when Mr. l. and his men took different
trail and arrived ahead of them, in time to
save his stock and the life Of tire man who
was left in camp Two of the party went to
the spot where Harry Lockhart was killed
to look for some Of his remains. On their
arrival. several Indians who, had concealed
tn emseves behind some rocks, suddenly
made their appearance and fred upon them,
killing one of their horses, and wounding
one of the men. The party succeeded in
reaching the ferry without further injury.
The Indians of Squaw Valley and vicinity,
are travelling towards Pitt river, evidently
with view of uniting with those of that
valley in the determination of the whites.
We learn from the same paper that com.
pany of U. S. Troops, mounted, passed
through Yreka on Monday, May IL tn, under
command of Capt Judah, for Pitt river
where military post would be established.

to appear as Paddy O'Ratferty About one
hundred and fifty people assembled to see
him. The Troupe refused to play without
pay in advance, and nothing but the farce
was enacted During the play n rope con-
tanning a hangmans knot on each end was
thrown on the stage. In one scene he ar
rested a ferrocious murderer, dressed in red

was, Yes, to FortGunny Bags" and Hop

As per announcement, the Oroville Packet
Sam S0uie, will leave our landing for the
last time, this morning. She came up yes
terday in good time, showing that there is
yet plenty Of water in the river for the pur-
poses of Navigation. This little steamer
has been welcome tr-weekly visitant to
Oro'ille, during the past three months, and
We regret the necessity which compels her
to haul off. Her doing so humiliates Oro-
vile before the world, and compcls us to adj
NIT after all the Boosting o. rapid progress
aud business Importance, that our trade is
not sufficient TO employ one little tri- weekly
steamer. Good bye, Sam There is still
water enough in the river to cleanse the
county of the INSCRIPTIONS schemers who
are now sacrificing her prosperity and ad-
vancement for their own agrandI2ement

destination is supposed to be Panama, to

of the squadron, at present looking after our
interests there The Massachusetts lately
