INDIAN WAR IN CARSON VALLEY, CAL.


Several murders have been committed Of late
in Carson Valley, by the Indians. May 9Th, the
Williams massacre took place; in this, nine men
were slain BY the savages, also another family
consisting Of thirteen were butchered.
Great excitement and CONSERVATION arose on
hearing the news Companies were organized in
the different villages, but many Of the men were
destitute Of arms and ammunition.
On May 9th the excitement and the organiza.
ton Of troops continued. The volunteers arrested
negro and white man for selling ammunition
TO Indians The white man had upwards Of 100
pounds Of powder concealed IN his cabin.
May 10th, company arrived at Miller's station
and found three bodies burned.
The Indiana engaged in these nIassacres were
the ShOshOnes, Smoke Greek, Honey Lake, and
Pah.utes. So the rising b 9 general one; and
as white men were with them and in command,
II Is supposed they were led on BY Mormon Off.
GERS. Nay 1lth and 18th, the organization Of
troops continued; and on the 18th, the vOlun-
teers, TO the number Of 105, met the Indians
about 400 near Pyramid Lake, when an engage
ment took place, In which the former suffered
severely.
The following Is summary Of the results Of
the defeat Of the volunteers: Fate unknown and
missing, 4S; returned alive, 50; dead, 81 I;
wounded, 8. Total, 1O6.
Troops were being organized and in motion
for the scene Of hostilities when the steamer left
One company Of the Sd Artillery and one com.
pany Of the 9th Infantry, U. s. A., were ordered
to march Immediately to Carson Valley, and there
establish post
Immense excitement prevailed all over the
State OF California. Il Is supposed that general
rising Of all the Indian tribes has taken place,
and that several thousand are already in the field,
led on BY MOrmOns.
THD CoAsTING TRADE OF 0REooN AND WASH.
INGToE.--A short time since, (says the Portland
Daily Adrertiser Of the 2Sth ult) we called at
tention to the fact that branch Of commerce
yet remained open for the enterprise Of some
competent persons, who felt disposed to establish
coasting trade between this port and the fruit.
full waters Of Washington Territory. We are
delighted, therefore, to chronicle the fact that
Capt VIM. MolthFop, gentleman Of enterprise
and business TACT well known In this city, isabout
to dispatch from Bellngham Bay the pioneer
vessel Of this trade, and We sincerely hope our
mercnants, one ana all, VIII give him that sub
stantial aid which the magnitude and utility Of
his enterprise demands. The vessel chartered
by Capt. MolthTop, the schr. GrOrer, will be
succeeded IN few weeks BY the schr. Carolina,
and thus the fine will be established; 90 that
when once the line is In operation, they viii run
regularly between this city and some port on the
waters Of Puget Sound, touching at an interme.
date places, where the wants Of the peOpls may
demand their presence.
