INDIAN MArTERs.-Itis now nearly month
since we have heard anything definite in regard
to the movements of the large force chartered in
Humboldt and Klamath counties for the osten-
sinie purpose OF Kidding the northern section of
hostile Indians. 1t may be that the soldiers
there are doing good service-in fact it is posi-
pie that the Indian campaign may have been
gloriousiy ended before this time Much could
be done in month, and it takes at least that
period of time to get intelligence from Humboldt
Bay in the present disarranged state of mail
communication. We are hoping for the success
full termination of the present Indian campaign-
hoping that the time is near at hand when the
refugee settlers of one of the most beautiful and
fertile sections of the State will be enabled to
return to their homes and property, no more to
be harrassed by the treacherous foe. Hundreds
are waiting to go back, while many dishearten-
ed at their losses and sufferings, after years of
toll, have abandoned the State and places they
had ardently hoped would be their future homes
1t is almost dscouraging to know that such is
the case, and humilatng to acknowledge that
such state of things really exists in a section
which has been gradually filing up and growing
prosperous for the last fifteen years.
1t is already well known to our readers that
the conduct of the present campaign has been
transferred from Col. Whipple to Col Black, of
the 9th California Infantry. We trust the change
has been for the better, although, unlike many
others, we believe the Indian war would have
been successfully prosecuted by Col. Whipple
had the proper means been placed at his COM
mand. Whether fit for the position or not, that
officer never had an opportunity to display his
htness or unftness. His plans for prosecuting
the campaign of which we were informed months
ago, were good enough But he had only
handful of men at his disposal-the Battalion of
Monntaineers y only half full-at least
only half the men were in position to do service.
Since Col Black has assumed command of that
department the Battalion has been filled up, and
from two to three hundred men additional placed
st his service He has now from six to eight
hundred soldiers at his disposal, and we trust
they will be effectually used. If that number of
men cannot accomplish the work it cannot be
accomplished.
The supplanting of Col Whipple by Col Black
was satisfactory to many in respect. 1t
silenced the mouthings of Copperhead clan
who were endeavoring to have one of their kind
elevated to the position held by that officer. But
they failed, and the people may rejoice that they
did
