The Modocs are little tribe ofhostile In
dams, numbering, by allaccounts. less than
q hundred, all told. Capt. Jack has but
forty-three fighting men in his band, though
it Is reported that he has received lately an
accession of twenty old men from another
| tribe The Modocs are as much civilized as
any Indians are in thatregion. They dress
like white men, and many of them speak
English fuently, and they have had suff-
cent contact with the whites to acquire all
the vices Of the frontier. As far back As
ISL they began waylaying and numbering
immigrants who sought Southern Oregon by
the trail through the Modoc country in
Northern California. This was stopped by
Ben Wright. an old mountaineer, who or
ganized an expedition in Oregon, struck
the Indians a. they were attacking an immi-
grant train. and killed forty out of forty
seven sayages. In 1869 Captain Jack ac-
cepted the terms ola treaty and went on to
a reservation; but did not stay on it. Last
fall be began marauding on settlers. These
petitioned the United States authorities,
and the soldiers were ordered to remove the
Modocs TO their reservation, by force ifnec-
essay. The result was a fight on Thanks
giving day, in which the troops were re
pulsed. and another battle, in the lava
beds. on the Eth Of January, in which
screened by the rocks, the Modocs shot
down the soldiers rapidly and not an Indian
was killed in return. After ten soldiers
were killed and twenty wounded, the troops,
consisting of $50 regulars, two companies Of
Oregon volunteers, % riAemen of California
and few Klamath Indians, retired.
More troops were then ordered to the
scene Of war. with the intention Of
rounding the band and making them cap
tives. In the meantime fresh negotiations
were opened by a new Peace Commission
composed Of Gen. Candy, the Rev. DIE.

the merits of the controversy, spoke OF
the deep interest felt in it at the North, and
expressed his hope that Louisiana would
come out of it without serious damage to
her material interests.
A writer in one Of the New York evening
papers, who was with President Grant
during much of the latter's visit to the
city, says that there are good grounds Tor
serious apprehensiOns as to the President :
