The Road to Fort Crook.

We have been permitted to read letter ad-
place, by Capt. Adams, Commander of Fort
Crooks, bearing date Aug. 2lst., in reference to
the Indian disturbances in the vicinity of the
Hat Greek portion of the Red Bluff and Fort
Crook Road He thinks if four or five teams
travel together, there is no danger to be appre-
hended from the Indians, if any proper care be
observed.
Since the murder at Hat Creek station Capt.
Adams has had out a scouting party of 33 men,
with orders to keep out until they find the par
ticular band of Indians who committed the mur-
der, who are known as the ''Indan Valley band"
and number about 25 bucks. If the present
scouting party should return without finding
this band of numbering savages, Capt. Adams
purposes Immediately starting out another
party. He determined, if possible to rout them
from the country
The five teams belonging to the post are now
on the road, and Capt. Adams purposes keep
ing them on, as he says there is no greater dan
ger now than heretofore, if four or FIVE teams
travel together He concludes his letter thus.
" You can assure teamsters, if four or FIVE travel
together, that there is no danger.
P. S. The killing of M1lroy and Welsh, near
the mouth of Hat Greek on the goth, was pro-
badly not known to Capt. Adams when he wrote
on the 2lst.

EDITING, &c.-Mr. Street justfes himself in
attributng certain articles in the Courier to Mr..
Skillman notwithstanding Mr., Skillman had in
formed him that Mr.. Dosh was the editor of the
Courier, by the fact that the Courier advertises
10 the world as follows: "The Shasta Courier
is published every Saturday morning by Skill
man Dosh, Editors and Proprietors" The
Herald then remarks ave move as an amend
ment to the bill that Skillman be stricken out,
and editors changed to editor" A very good
lick, Charley. We appreciate agood thing, even
if 1t is at our own expense. However, in the
same paper you speak of "the editor of this pa
per" the Herald. Now, who do you mean by "the
editor" We find that the Horald publishes to
the world that it " is published every Saturday,
by Street & Moffett." There is nothing said as
to who is its editor The inference is that Mr.
Moffett is as much editor as Mr.. Street We
would move as an amendment to your terms that
you state which of the firm is editor, or if nei-
ther of the firm be editor, then the name of the
outsider who occupies that position. We would
also move, if Mr.. Moffett desires to make the
Herald II true Democratic paper-one that sup
ports heartily the nominees of Democratic Con-
ventions--that he strike. Mr.. Streets name en-
tirely from the paper.

POVERTY GULCH, NEAR THE RIVER.
GENTLEMEN 1t is seldom l have the pre-
sumption to give my thoughts upon public ques-
tions, but naturalizcd citizen l should like
to call the attention of my fellow citizens to the
Misrepresentation, trickery, subterfuges, and
sophistry of the enemies of the regular Demo-
cratic ticket
The late Convention was composed of dele
gates sent from the various precincts of the
county to make nominations for the Democrats
of this county. Men were nominated who are
honest, capable. and worthy of the peoples sup
port. Now, however, there are men-who have
thrown the Democratic toga over their shoul,
ders and crept into the church-who are basely
trying to dssension and discord in the par
ty, because they or their friends have been de-
feated, and their malicious brains and lying
tongues would be we'll rewarded in the coming
contest by seeing their friends of midnight lamps
and Ky Vi lodges hosted into office upon the
back of mistaken Democrats Therefore be-
ware, Democrats, lest your old enemies make
you their tools--and after having used your VAL
uoDiS iilIuCuSS ~ put lOut DlIteE eHeluleS lulO
office, they laugh and jeer at your gulabl-
ty. The snake charms but to destroy. The
enemies of Democracy are arraying men of all
cliques, isms, and political creeds again st the
Jeifersonian and jackson Democratic nominees
| allowed myself to be persuaded to vote for
John Harrington-and got laughed at for my
folly by the very parties who induced me to do
so. And the very same parties say they will
play the German vote this year, as they did the
Irish vote when James Lennon was defeated
trust it will not be so. Like the monte dealer.
they can not pull waxed cards upon men they
have teeced before and therefore they may rest
well assured that this time they cannot make the
German and Irish citizens carry on their shoul-
ders the batering with which to destroy the
pillars of the Democratic church. He who is a
Democrat will vote for the ticket in defense of
his principles. He who votes against the regu-
lar ticket raises the sword against the party and
her principles United we shall be victorious
and in that way give severe reprimand to our
political enemies. LUDWIG.

which, as we know, had been surreptiti3usly
placed upon the Democratic ticket. The Herald,
professed hater of Abolitionism and lover OF
Democracy, at once catches up the reu1 and
with great apparent glee exclaims: $50 the
editor of the the Courier is boler after all" &c
Yes, Mr.. Street, if you call scratching the name
OF an Aboitionist boiling, we are bolter. We
are not surprised that we are denounced for not
voting for an Abolitionist We expect it from
certain quarters. The grumbling, however, does
not come very appropriately from professed

VIM. p. Daingerfield.

We have heretofore declared, in reply to
charges made against Judge Daingerteld, that
fewer of his cases in proportion have been re-
versed in the Supreme Court, than any other
Judge in the State. 1t is astonishing that per-
sons will go about saying that great number
of his decisions have been overrued, when they
can know that it is untrue To show how utterly
false is the charge, we copy the following letter
written to citizen of Siskiyou by Judge Bald
win of the Supreme Bench;
SACRAMENTO CITY, Aug Is, 1859.
DEAR SIR Il have put your note in the hands
of the clerk, who will answer it.
1t is not true that many of Judge DANGER
fields cases have been reversed. On the con-
trary, | do not remember single case since
have been on the bench he has had certainly
larger number affirmed in proportion, than even
Judge Norton, of San Francisco, who is regard
ed as the ablest Judge on the District Bench.
have always found Judge Daingerfeld's judg
ments and opinions intelligent, and generally
sound and regard him as an able, faithful, and
conscientious officer.
Very respectfully yours,
Jos. G. BALDWIN,
Judge of the Supreme Court.
This foul SANDER was used in this county
against Daingerfed previous to the last County
Convention, and with great effect. 1t is now
being used against him in Siskiyou. more
unjust and untruthful charge was never made
against mortal man.

The ELECTION OF DISTRICT JUDGE.-It is the
opinion of the Attorney General that this is the
proper time to elect Judge of this the 9th
Judicial District So we learn, indirectly through
the Secretary OF State. The Governor has
doubts, and is inclined to the opinion that
Judge Daingerfeld holds Office till the lst of
January, 1851. Both say that if his term ex-
pires in October, or on the first of November
1860, that this is the time to elect
1t must be the time, otherwise JUDGE n would
hold six years and three months. when the con-
stitution says he shall only hold six wears.

A DELIBERATE FALsEHooD-Several persons.
friends of the Opposition candidates for Tax
Collector, have been industriously circulating
the mean falsehood that Mr.. Skllman said he
did not wish any foreign-born citizens to vote
for him. Of course the retailers of this tale
know that it is deliberate invention, and in
circulating it, they know that they are uttering
an unqualified lie, and are themselves the basest
sort of calumniators. We shall not mention
them by name. We shall not honor them to
that extent. They are fellows who take pride
in being talked about, even though they are
spoken ofas calumniators and scoundrels They
are like the famous Foote was when in England:
No one thought it worth while to kick him.
And hence his friend Johnson rejoiced when
he heard that Foote had been kicked in Dublin /;
for, said he, it is evidence that since he left
England, he is rising in the world"
The absurdity of the SANDER is apparent when
it is known that many of Mr. Skillman's princi-
pal friends in the county and in the Convention
which nominated him are men of foreign birth
Germans, Irishmen and Scotchmcn. If he
had felt SO bitterly against adopted citizens, how
comes it that he did not join the Know Nothing
party?

Two Men KILLED BY ISDIAss.-We learn
through Mr.. Wilson, a store-keeper at Fort Crook,
that Mr.. Napoleon McIlroy and David Welsh
were killed by Indians on the Goth inst, near
the mouth of Hat Greek, on McIlroy's new road
They were engaged in hauling lumber, and at
the time of their murder were encamped ana
asleep. Lieut. Brewer had McIlroys wife re-
moved to Fort Crook Immediately upon receipt
of the news. The Indians are reported to be
very bad, and persons travelling on the road to
Fort Crook are forced to be exceedingly watch
ful.
A Mr. McIlroy, brother of Napoleon McTlroy,
and twelve U. S. soldiers, are out in search OF
the murdered mans body.

GRATIFi Democrats who are bolt
ing against the regular Democratic nominees
of this county, will be gratified to learn that the

ought to prove particularly agreeable to those

think them unworthy to fill any Office.

DECENT OF A MErEoRIc BODY IN
NEW YoRK.-On Wednesday NOR
ming, the inhabitants of the towns of
Boylston and Redfield, Of Oswego Co.,
were startled by the occurrence of a
most remarkable phenomenon-the de-
scent from the heavens Of an immense
meteoric mass. The body struck the
earth between the hours Of and
p. NJ, with a crash that was truly
terrific, and the shock was sensibly
felt and people aroused from their sleep
at distance of five miles from the
sc enc. The body fell upon the farm
of Horace Sanger, situated on the line
Of Boylston and Redfeld, striking in
meadow and partially on the high
way. 1t is estimated by our inform
ant to cover about half an acre ofland.
The earth was torn up in a terrible
manner and large fragments were
thrown distance of two thirds of a
mile. The mass is very irregular in
shape and rises at some points to sixty
and eighty feet in hight, and is sup
posed to be imbedded in the earth as
many feet. The surface has generally
the appearance of iron ore. The ex-
citement occasioned by the event
among tho inhabitants was intense,
and the crash is said to have been ter
rife beyond description. Many sup
posed that the final winding up of ter
restial affairs had truly arrived.
