H.t,e and Honey Lake.

The discovery of rich and extensive
placer diggings at Inskips, near the
northern boundary line of Butte, will
do much to bring the route from Oro-
vile to Honey Lake into prominent
consideration. Inskips is about forty
five miles from Oroville, and their re-
cent election for Justice of the Peace,
shows that nearly fourteen hundred
voters have congregated at that point.
Such an increase of mining population
in the direction Of Honey Lake, and
but slightly removed from the direct
route, together with the locations and
settlements now being made in Hum
bug and other vallies on the route, as
well as in Honey Lake valley, will be
the means of opening this route, and
when the Utah difficulties shall be set

Indian Fight near Honey Lake i-2O In

Mr.. Carlow. who came down yesterday
from the Big Meadows, informs us that on
Thursday last, the news was brought to Mr.. |
Browns house by Deppty Sheriff Of Plu.
mas county, of fight which had taken place
between a party of residents Of Honey Lake
and some Mormon emigrants on one side,
and party Of Pitt River Indians on the
other. 1t seems that the Mormons who
were on their way from Oregon to Salt Lake,
had been robbed Of their cattle by Indians,
who subsequently, offered to exchange the
cattle for -four. This proposition was acce-
ded to, but when once the rascally red skins
had obtained possession of the -four, they
refused to give up the cattle. Pending the
parley that followed this treacherous act, a
party from Honey Lake who we're in pursuit
Of cattle which had been stolen, Joined the
Mormons, and made battle with the Indians.
The fight lasted for two or three hours and
: resulted in the death Of twenty Indians and
= the wounding Of two whites. The Mormons
q recovered all their cattle, and the Honey
, Lake party found more than enough in the
possession of the Indians to make up their
> losses. The conquerors scalped their slaugh
@ tered foes and returned in triumph to Honey
= Lake. Mr.. Carlow was unable to learn tn,
v number Of whites and Indians engaged il
this conflict or the condition Of the wounded
men. The Indians, who we're Of the Pit
River tribe, were oil armed with guns.
h Much apprehension is felt among the res
C idents in and about Honey Lake Valley ant
