Indian Difficulties.

The Indians in the vicinity of Butte creek
have again become restless, and commenced
an indiscriminate slaughter of persons who
may chance to fall within their power OF
the cause of the present outbreak, and massa-
ere Of peaceful NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and chill
dren-in that vicinity, we are unadvsed, bat
fear that the hanging of the five Indians, re-
Gently, at Helltown, on suspicion of having
COMMITTED depredations upon property, has
iucited them to retaliate by numbering those
who may fall into their hands.
If the Indian reservations in this State
amount to anything more than elemosyuary
establishments for party politicians, it does
seem to us that the Indians of Butte county
should be removed aud taken care of. These
troubles are becoming altogether 100 frequent.
and Indian cruelty has already fallen upon too
many helpless victims, and innocent and unof-
Tending families.
OF the murders committed by the Indians
the past week. we mention those of Richard
Morrison, Mrs Blum, and three children of
the Lewis family, residing near Peuce's raach,
some twelve miles from Orovie. There are
reports Of other murders, but not Sufficiently
authenticated, and it is to be hoped that they
are reports only.
OF course, the people Of that vicinity are
greatly alarmed, and have taken measures to
protect themselves and little ones from butche-
~. \ company of some 40 or 80 men was
organized, and are now engaged in hunting
the Indians \ portion of the Oroville Guards
have also volunteered to assist in punishing
the Indians. \ number OF the Guards left on
Wednesday, and some or 10 more started on
Thursday
Some 40 or 30 Indians came into Yankee
Hill, disc!aimed having any connection with
the Indians committing the murders, surreu-
dered their arms. and claimed the protection OF
the residents This was graated them
Among them, however, four Indians were
found who did not beloag with the tribe, and
they were taken ont to be disposed of when
two Of them succeeded in making their escape.

of Mississippi, and Despler killed. Mai.
Gen: VIM. Preston, of Kentucky, Cleburne
Generals Banning, in the breast, David,
Adams, Brown, Baum, and John Helm,
were wounded. If Ben. H. Helm. who is
beother-in-law of Mrs. President Lin
coin, is Major General he may be the one
announced as killed, if not, the reference
must be to Brigadier General John Helm.
The Richmond Sentinel of yesterday
cautions its readers against receiving the
accounts SO far as received as proof Of en-
tire success in that quarter, admitting that
the battles of Saturday and Sunday were
not conclusive, though claiming that the
advantage was on the rebel side.
The Richmond Enquirer of the 23d says
The battle commenced eight miles from
Ringgold, and on the Goth Rosecrans ar
my was driven two miles by the combined
charge Of the corps of Gems. D. H. Hill and

was repulsed.
A dispatch reports that on Sunday the
Union forces fell back eight miles, and says
that the rebel loss was 5000 killed and
in the two days fight. The pro-
portion of officers was very heavy. 1t
claims that the rebels took 1900 prisoners
and pieces of artillery ont Saturday,
and that a heavy smoke on that night in
dicated that Gen. Rosecrans was burning
his stores.
Another dispatch on Sunday night says
that combined attack by Gems. Hill and
Longstreet was to be made on Monday.
dispatch from Atlanta, dated Ring
gold, this morning, reports that 900 Union
prisoners have been taken and 30 pieces of
and that the rebels are in pursuit.
It also claims complete Confederate vic,
tory, with large captures OF artillery and
colors, though it admits heavy loss in
D Ulcers and men.
An Atlanta dispatch of the 22d, says that
all of Rosecrans' army was engaged, that
Helm, of Kentucky, was killed, that Hood
was wounded, and that Major Richmond,
of Folks staff was killed. The dispatch
further states that on Saturday night Gems.
Hill and Longstreet made a combined at
tack and took 5000 prisoners. 1t adds, as
a prophecy, that they will drive Rose
Grams from the Mission Ridge.
Governor Isham Harris, Of Tennessee,
in his dispatch to the Appeal, dated Sun
day night, says that the two days fighting
had not had definite result, and that
Gems. John C. Brown, Hood, Gregg, Dane,
Adams and John Helm were wounded and
and that the rebels had captured

pect twenty more pieces of artillery to be
