yours" Assembly adopted the motion
and fixed debate for Saturday amid pro-

turned late last night, bringing dis
patches, from Col. Wheaton, COM
mander of the Division Of the Lakes,
to Gen. Candy. Mckay lost several
hours going out, by coming upon band
of Indians; not knowing who they were,
had to ride some distance out of his way
to avoid them. He reports that Major
Green had taken command of the troops
in the vicinity of Lost River. The only
terms with Capt. Jack are now uncondi-
tional surrender. The Major says all he
wants now are plenty of provisions
and snow storm, and can get Capt.
Jack. He efought Apaches five years, and
has the reputation of being good In
dian fighter. From Charles Blair, who
came from Hot Creek last night, We
learn that while Fairchilds was in Jack S
camp he lost his horse and Jack let him
have one to ride home. 1t is believed
that Capt. Jack put the friendly Indians,
who were with Fairchilds, up to break,
because as soon as they got in, the camp
broke up, and all the bucks are by this
time with Capt. Jack. Fairchilds' and
other families are expected to arrive
