The return of Mr. Reed from China is look
ed for with some interest in this quarter. He
has made good minister, and has, no doubt,

by the Senate, will sail in short time He
will not be accompanied to China by his fami-

SiskiYOu Comfy.

The Yreka Chronicle contains the follow.
ing items;
Quite n sudden change has been expe.
rlenced in the weather during the week
which has greatly moderated, giving us alter.
native sunshine and showers of rain. Miners
have pretty generally commenced work. and
should this prove the breaking up of winter,
as the weatherwise affirm, gold dust will be
brought to our market in value of thousands.
and will, consequently, circulate more freely
again. We prophesy some rare develop
ments IN the mining resources of Siskivou
county, with the opening of spring. Even
now, favorable indication Of their wealth
Is exhibited in the fact that laborers are zen
orally possessed Of good spirits and are con
hdent OF success. By-the.by, we are deci-
dediy In favor of the law providing for

Siskiyou and the North will provide a rich
field for his scientific investigation.

ces attending the Modoc difficulties, in the
Northern portion of this State are rightly
considered, we feel confident that active
measures will be taken by the State authori-
ties to secure an appropriation by Congress
to meet its expenditures. The debt was con.
tracted in good faith, and in defense of the
country, and should therefore be promptly
met We shall call more particular attention
to this Indebtedness hereafter.

The Digger Indians,

smuch has been said about the working
e the Indian Reservation System in Califor-
ria we give the following statement from one
- the Agents, as we find it in the San Fran
cisco Herald;
En- HERALD; Sir-The observation in the
,o,e message of Governor Weller. that the
nvnenditures of the Indian Department in
Sbis State were sadly disproportionate to the
benefits, requires, in justice to myself and to

II seems that Governor Weller has been
grossly misinformed as to the benefits confer.

mast three years, has been placed under nv
charge by the Superintendent of Indian AZ
sairs Not having received n dollar for NV
service in any of the Indian wars in which /
have been engaged, l am incompetent to
Sudre of the amount eXpendedin Indian wars,

of $40, $50 per annum-giving each Indian
&ll 70 TO feed and clothe himself and pur-
chase tools and stock to cultivate the land
which the Government so gratuitouslv al

consequence has been that n large proportion
of the Indians removed to the Reserve have
returned to their old homes; but since the
3Oth of June, 1856, there has been there up
wards of 500 Indians who have been well
fed and clothed from that date to the present
date. When | arrived on the observation
these Indians were naked and starving-now
they are well clothed and well fed. | know
that there have been reports in circulation
that the number of Indians is much less than

SUICIDE IN CONTRA CosrA-Caroline Korb
died suddenly at the village of Alamo, Con
ira Costa county, on the 18th of January.
The Martinez Gazette says:
DR.. Howard, who called to see the patient,
thought the symptoms similar to those caus-
ed by strychnine, and subsequent develop
ments leave but little doubt that such was
the fact The body was taken to San Fran
cisco for interment, and upon the return of
the friends, rumor gained currency to the
effect that upon a close detail of all the
symptoms and circumstances of the case,
high medical authority had decided that
Death took place by disease and not poison
This. however. turns out to be a mistake,
and sufficient evidence has been discovered
10 show that it was a case of selfpoisoning,
the deceased using strychnine to accomplish
her purpose. Several causes are assigned
1or the committal of the rash act, the most
prominent being that the deceased had a
quarrelwith her intended husband the night
previous to taking the strychnine.

In addition to the above, there is 75O acres
of land well broken and in good state of
cultivation, and at the present time seeded
in rye, oats and barley. This exhibit shows
that nearly one half of the expenditure is in
good property, besides the improvements to
the land. | see it suggested by writer
in the Herald of the 10Th instant, that Agent
Geiger's reply to Governor Weller might
ihave been prompted by desire to prejudice
the claims of the latter to Il denomination for
Governor, or to a seat in the United States
Senate. 1t is proper. therefore, for me to
say that no such motive can be attributed to
me, as l have been the constant friend of
Governor Weller since the year 1852, and
gave him my support for the position of U.
>. Senator in the Legislature of that YEAR
also attended the Democratic County Con
vention for the counties of Mendocino and
Sonoma, in the year 1857, and aided in the
passage of resolution instructing the dele
gates of the State Convention to cast their
votes for him. | have no other motive in
this communication than to defend nv own
position and correct the Governor in what
he has pleased to call the most reliable infor.

ANOTHER SLICE OF MExIco.-A Washington
correspondent makes the following statement
which he says is obtained from a source gem
orally reliable on Mexican affairs:
[ learn, from a source which [ cannot
doubt, that Sefior Mata is the actual friend
and agent Of Commonfort Mata offers our
Government the six northern tiers of Mexi-
can States, from the Gulf of the Pacific, for
the consideration of twelve millions of dol.
lars, and the recognition of Commonfort as
the supreme head of the Republicl In the
way of accepting this proposition, stands the
fact, that all the great powers of the earth
have recognized the Zuloaga or Church Gov
ernment, and what complicates and embar-
rasses affairs still worse is the fact, that
while our Home Government has never for.
mally recognized Zuloaga, Mr. Forsyth, our
Minister to Mexico, has recognized him. An.
other important difficulty in the way, though
some recent reports do not confirm it, is the
fact that negotiations have been going on.
for some time, between Zuloaga and Louis
Napoleon, to the end that, for a certain con
sideration, the French Government would
sustain financially and physically, if necessa-
ry, the present Zuloaga or Catholic Govern
ment of Mexico, against any attempt of the
United States to establish Commonfort.
