THIRD DESPATCH.

LAVA BEDS, May IA A. M-One
of the sentinels reports that he heard
firing in au easterly direction from camp
at an early hour this morning. 1t is in
fe,red from this that Colonel Mason has
begun his work.
The body of Lieutenant Harris arrived
at Yreka today.
SAN Francisco, May 16 The fol-
lowing was received from Yreka to-right ::
j. w. Doten arrived here to, day from
Hot Springs Valley via Burgotville, hav-
ing left the former place on Tuesday last
at which time the Pitt river Indians,
numbering 800 warriors, had gathered
together in council, having been called
by Old Dick, their head chief. Dick is
peaceably inclined and very friendly to
wards white settlers. They have every
confidence in him
He was anxious that his tribe shoulI
all move to the east side of Pitt river, go
that they would not be blamed for depre-
dations north or west of them. He said
he did not know what the result of the
council would be, but the Indians head
ed by Old Shavehead wanted to fight,
and talked of putting him Dick down
and making some one else chief, and
should they do go settlers might know
that some trouble was intended. Old
Shavehead some time ago went off, and
some think he has been up to the lava
beds holding a conference with Captain
Jack. Doten says the settlers were not
apprehensive of serious troubles, but the
collecting together of such band at this
time looks suspicious.

lowing are the particulars of the tragedy
at Warren on Friday night pr Baker

hearing knock at the door, got up and
let him in, and about ten z. NJ, she came
to the house of Mr. Shear crying out,
am shot, l am shot Dr.. Baker has shot

in state Of frenzy and great excitement
all through the night. In the morning
the neigbbors found Bakers gig in
Menks' yard and bis horse in the barn.
The door of the house was locked, and,
on breaking it open, they found the un-
fortunate man lyiag dead on the chamber

fatal wound he made an attempt to dress
himself, and in doing go fell backwards

The bullet passed through his heart into
his lung The wom9n has been arrested
A postmortem examination has been
made and an inquest commenced yester-
day, but was not finished. Important

A Despatch from Portland, Oregon,
says that FIVE Indians attacked the house
of james Harrison, eight miles from
Walla Walla. He refused to give the
Indians tobacco, and they knocked the
door down. Harrison defended himself

THE MODOC WAR.

NKw YoRK. May I4-Special des
patche. from the lava beds contain fur.
ther details Of the last fight. Captain
Ha,brouck's men knew that the Modocs
were in the vicinity, and went to bed,
thinking themselves fully guarded againa
any surprise But the Indians approach
ed so stcaltbily by creeping on the ground
that the men were only awakened by
the first discharge, which killed one
man, Coporal Totten. Troop. G. First
Cavalry, and wouu ded eight. The
Warm Spring Indians showed great
presence OF mind, and chased the Modocs
so rapidly that the latter dropped bullet
pouches and other articles to aid their
flight. The soldiers feel in excellent
spirits over the result, and believe they
now have The Modocs cornered.
SAN FRANCISCO, May l4.-Despatch-
es received from the lava beds to day
state that three hundred and seventy
five soldiers and the Warm Spring Indi-
ans are now securing the lava beds and
surrounding country. The total nu mber
of troops in the field is twenty officers
and four hundred and eighty men.
SAN FRANcIsco, May IA des-
datch from Yreka tonight says the Mod
ocs are in another rocky fortress, which
they are making stronger.
The troops will not attack them before
the arrival of reinforcements. The new
position is about twenty IN les south of
the last stronghold.
c. Burgess has seen Bogus Charlie on
the Upper Klamath, who said he knew
nothing about the contemplated massacre
of the commissioners, and that there
were thirty Modocs left, who would fight
until the last man was killed.
Seventy FIVE men will be retained in
camp to guard the stories until the arri-
val of reinforcements.
SAN Francisco, May l6.-The fol-
lowing has been received here
CAMP SOUTH OF TuLE LAKE, LAVA
BEDS. May l3.-The Modocs now are
entrenched in craterbutte, or mass of
lava. approximatipg some little southeast
of this camp, and distant from fifteen to
eighteen miles. Captain Hasbrouck is
camped within watching distance of the
enemy, with 2lO men. where he awaits
the arrival of Colonel Mason, who yes
tcrday morning started from Captain
Jacks old stronghold with ITO men. He
took southeasterly course.
1t is intended the two command should
be united under Colonel Mason, and hold
the Indians at bay until Morton's CON-
mand is forwarded, and a scout is made
around the southern boundary of the lava
beds by way of Ticknor roads. At last
accounts the Indians were fortifying the
present position, with the evident inten-
lion Of giving battle on the first oppor-
.unity.

Enterprise in Business.

We like enterprise, and we know
of no class of business men display
ing more Of it than the newspaper
publishers of America. The pub
fishers of Om FiTeSide FRIEND,
Chicago, announce this week in
our columns, their second Annual
Distribution of premiums to sub
scribers. This excellent Story and
Family Weekly is now in its third
volume It's success has been great.
1t is firmly established as one of
the leading weeklies of the Union,
with the largest circulation Of any
paper in the West. It's success
may in no slight degree be attribut-
ed to its method Of distributing
premiums which is permanent
with this paper, being held an
nually. Its distribution last year
gave general satisfaction. Their
list of premiums is fine and secures
to every subscriber for 1873, a pre-
MUM either in cash or some one
of the valuable articl1s mentioned
in the list. We cheerfully recon-
mend the paper. Their plan of
distributing premiums is a nota-
bic part of their well conducted en-
terprise, and our readers need have
no doubts as to their being fairly
dealt with. The paper is finan-
cial success. Its immense circula-
tion enables its publishers to offer
this valuable list Of yremlqms and
to fully carry out their plans OF
distributing them.

COMMUNICATED.
True Pleasure.

We are all seekers after pleasure,
and while we are seeking We are
anxious to find that, that affords
greatest enjoyment. Some have
sought it in the fashionable circle,
where the gay and giddy were met,
and where all was gauze and show;
where all was bright and dazzling
as a sun beams ray.
While others have sought it in
deeds Of valor, upon the battle field
or upon the great deep, or at the
great conhagrations, where they
might show how daring they were.
Others have sought pleasure in the
requirement Of wealth; they have
amassed great possessions and
counted their gold by the millions;
and yet, they were unhappy, for
there was something within them
that craved and was not yet salts
fed; there was a longing after
something that they did not pos
sess, that wealth, and honor, nor
position would not satisfy, then
there was the fear that a rival
might be more successful, or that
fires, or failures in business might
affect them and thus they might
become loosers by these means.
And after all have found only vex-
alton of spirit.
Then there is another class, who
seek pleasure in the performance Of
those things that God has appoint
ed for us to do, and in so doing
they have great pleasure. They
find no care or anxiety about the
success of the cause they have es-
poused, but they trust all to God
and are willing to be led by his
counsels. They come to Him who
is the author of all good and seek
pleasure there, and thus they come
to the fountains head and get the
waters fresh and pure. And do
not have to wait for them to run
through the sands Of all kinds of
pollution before they are taken and
used-for where the water is taken
from the stream at some distance
from the source it is less pure
than at first. Then true pleasure
is to be found in the service Of God,
in obeying the commands, for the
good book says, "That the fear of
the Lord is the beginning of wis
dom," and can anything afford
more pleasure than the concious-
ness that we are doing right, and
that the smiles Of God rest upon us.
Is this not enough to prompt Il / TO
Join in the heavenly band bound
for glory and there dwell with God
forever?
