this position, Is they have got to be
Entirely surrounded before they al
be gathered into the fold Of the troops.
The two squaws captured yesterday
saw that some Indians were killed IN
the first days fight, but they decline
saying who was killed. or whether
they did burn the dead. Yesterday,
as the skirmishers were exploring d
sinks they came upon five q
that had 6een cut off from those who
| left the stronghold. The Indians did
| not fire upon the ranks until they
| were i'm quarters so close that II
| powder burned the boys faces. They
| wounded one private, named Nolan,
| of G troop, first cavalry, in the arm
and right side. The ball passed
through the arm and struck q pack
age Of carriages and a large notebook,
| cutting its way through to the flesh,
but not %infiicting a fatal wound. Two
| of the Indians were killed. their
heads were cut of, and passed around.
| The Signal Cops reported that twelve
| more Modocs came down to the lake
| for water Just at dusk and wen back
to the rocks again. An attack upon
the camp Is expected Tonight. The
Indians had the audaci'y to firs

position toward the camp. the
| troops who went out on the scout
have not vet been heard from. but
are looked for a. a late hour tonight.
II they arrive there will be a general
| reconnaissance of the entire Lava
Beds. There Is supposed TO he about
twenty-five warriors vet at large, ana
it is feared more are constantly join
ing them. The MOlocs have a poor
supply of food, and they can only get
water in the Lava Beds from the lake,
and it is evident they are trying to
hold the point between the camps IS
long as they stop in the Lava Beds.
They are scouting the country over,
and 1t Is unsafe to travel. as they are
jumping escorts and wagon trains.
They opened on James Glenn rs he
passed the point of rocks upon Little
Klamath Lake, but did not do any
damage. Part Of the Warm Spring
Indians have come into Colonel Ma
sons camp, and report that they have
six Modocs corrafed, and will dis
patch them tonight. Great excite
ment exists over findingthat 81 many
have escaped from the stronghold.
The MOdocs are endeavoring TO cap
lure nOrSoS, as tney nave Oeen luTk-
ing around the herds. 1t looks as
though they intended to overrun' the
country and prolong the var all the
season. If they should Succeed in
getting reinforcements, we will want
at least 1000 troops in the field to equal
the strength and advantage of their
warriors.
During a charge they found a
wounded MOdoc, who, after firing
upon them when they were coming
up to him, asked and begged for
mercy, but the boys were too much
demon, and shot him dead. They
afterward found another one. They
cut their heads off, and every one
that passed. relieved his weary foot
by giving them a round or two for
exercise and as a memorial of Gen.
eral Canby's murder.

The Modocs and the Government.

The Modocs and the Government.
It is said that during the last few
days many kilograms and letters have
been received at the White House,
begging the President not to allow
the clamor Of the press or the passion.
ate %reayOning Of those around him to
swerve him from his philanthropic
peace policy toward the Indians. In
conversation with all, the President
said, calmly, that the Modocs must
and shall be exterminated. not as All
act of passionate revenge for the ir
t~reacherous murders. but as an act of
justice as we'll as protection to the
peaceful settlers in that part Of the
country Exchange.
That word extermin ate sounds bad
ly, coming:sfrom the head OF q civil
lied nation. There is no doubt that
not q single n Of the leaders OF the
t~reacherous Modocs deserve to be
spared /; but, to talk of discriminating
the whole tribe, decrepid old men.
women and infants, is carrying tho
thing . little too far. Threats Of that
kind on the part Of an exasperated
soldiery might be excused, but we
submit that it is unbecoming the Pres
ident to use such sanguinary Ian
guage. The civilized world would
condemn ar act so cruel and barbar-
Gus.
In the meantime we presume it is
the intention Of the authorities to
catch the Modocs before they exter-
inmate them.

The Nv Postal Law.

A few days ago we published an
editorial article OF this subject, in the
course Of which We stated that the
free exchange list would be suspended
On and after June 9Oth. We also stat
I'd that publishers under the new law
would have to prepay the postage on
all papers circulated in their own
county. The Reno State Journal taxes
Issue with US as follows:
The Eureka SENTINEL Is in error
regarding the new postal law. 30 far
q regards newspapers. Publishe rs
are not required to paw postage on
papers wholly printed and circulated
within their W county. Nor 10 the
free exchange list suspended until
January I, 1874.
Now let u see who il correct about
this matter. The Postal Appropria-
ton bill, approved Mard 8. 1878, con-
tains the following clause:
Provided, that all laws. and parts
Of laws permitting the transmission
BY mail of any tree matter Whatever,
b and the same are hereby repealed
from and after June 80, 1873"
This abolishes the Thanking privi-
ledge held by Congress and 20 many
omcers. and also section IS Of the act
Of March 8, 1868, which reads thus:
The publishers Of weekly newspa.
psrs may send to each actual sub
scriber within the county where their
papers are printed and published one
copy thereof free Of charge"
Section As of the same act, which is
likewise repealed. reads as follows:
All publishers Of periodicals, maya.
n and newspapers which shall
not exceed sixteen ounces in weight
shall be allowed to Interchange their
publications ~reciprocally free Of post
age: provided, that such interchange
shall be confined to q single copy Of
such publication.
II the local or county list, and also
tho free exchange list, are not abol-
ished from and after the SOth day Of
next June, then we confess that we
are unable to construe the English
language. The only mistake we made
was in stating that all postage had to
be prepaid. On closer examination
Of the subject we find that the laws
remain unchanged which permit pre-
payment Of postage on newspapers
at the Office Of mailing or delivery, at
the option Of the parties interested,
and prepayment by newsdealers
upon their packages as received"
The Journal man had better inform
himself before talking so rlibly about
other people committing errors. He
will find that after the 30th Of June it
will be impossible for him to dead
head his "spermaceti sheet through
tho United States mail wen within
the limits Of his own county.

The Modocs Still Live.

GEORGE s. LADD."
Still later in the day the San Fran
cisco reporter of the Western I'm ion
paid his respects to US after this style:
The Modocs still live-nothing
from them this week.
From tho best light we have been
able to get on the subject, it appears
probable that the Modocs will con-
tinue to live for some time to come.
However, if one, or moro of them
should through any accident shuttle
Oh the mortal coil" and depart for
more inviting lava beds, we hope
our telegraphic friends will adhere to
their promise, and give u the parti-
culsrs at the earliest possible moment.
