 WILLIAMSON vALLGY.-From V. w.

 TIE CAPTURED Mlu--Csptain Sonlerby and a portion Of B. Troop, S;h Cavalry, with guides irailer.. packers and other usefnl attaches passed our office little sfler daylight, Saturday morning last on their way 10 the lower country to search for ,be mail recently captured by ,bC ApAohes, hrtweea Kirkland Valley and Camp bate Creek Since then, we learn that the! made dilligent search for it, and we are sorry C say, did not find it Therefore we abandon al hope Of its recovery or the recovery Of any portion Of it until t is too late to save he yal uable letters contained in it. There were. beside Vouchers, cheeks, etc, great many gresnback in it. but these, we feel certain, were all taken by the Indian robbers, for they know well th' yllue Of greenbacks. The capture Of this ma will explain to oar subscribers. exchanges. etc in some pos.ioas CT sAs Territory, New Mexico California. and ihe other States, why they dt not receive their MfSEFs os Js!y !.. BiE 3EFap To, the cussed Indian, Is responsible for it aI He wanted to learn what the whites were doing aud did not hesiia.e to commit murder and rot oery ,o accomplish his object The loss of th mail is great hardship 10 our people. but, i time, they will get over it and perhaps repa the savages, but tbe lives of the soldiers wh fell while endeavoring 10 protect 1t cannot b restored. As we have said before. an hundre times, we now say again, that Government is r' sponsibe for these as well as past outragrs, an should blush before all civilized nations for pc hitting worthless race of savages 10 murds and rob its citizens.
