of the Humboldt Times, writing from Hy.
deryille Jan. nth. says:
The company of volunteers have disbanded

again at the mercy of the Indians. They still
continue to levy their daily contributions on
the cattle in the Bald Hills. and that, too, in
soma instances, in sight of houses and in the
presence of the owners of the cattle. They
take the beef into the woods, and before a
party sufficient to follow can be raised, they
have ierked the meat and scattered SO as to
make it impossible to follow them. We are
now trying to form military company I'M
