A DISPATCH from San Francisco says

A DISPATCH from San Francisco saws
Captain Jack is north Of the Pitt River
country with twenty-five warriors. He
says that they will die with their rifles
IN their hands" There is no particular
objection to Captain Jacks dying with
rifle in his hands. provided he will only
be kind enough to die. In view of the
uncertainty that began to attach itself
to that ong-look ed for event we are glad
to have the assurance from the Indians
cwn lips that he intends to die. We put
all considerations of personal preferences
as to the mode of his death behind US,
and are willing he should hold a rifle
and two or three tomahawks while in
drticut0 morris, if it gratiiies him. But
one curious thing about this matter is,
the extreme difficulty we have in captur-
ing Jack or finding him 10 the place
where we most expected him, and the
ease with which we are able to hear from
him. He came upon our soldiers once
wearing General Canbys uniform, and
putting on all the airs of brigadier
general: yet while he was behaving
himself In this absurd way, and exhibit
ing his commanding figure in the full
view of the army that was hunting for
him, not shot was fired, as far as can
be learned, at the insolent Modoc. and
he galloped away on his Indian pony
without the interference of bullets or
buckshot. Now, it is plain there is some
sort ct wizard in the lava beds who
can see and interview Captain Jack any
time he pleases. lie was able TO see him
cutting pompous attitudes with General
Canhys uniiorm. and he has nov learn
ed, from the chiefs own lips, precisely
how he in tends to die This man is the
individual inperativeiy demanded for
guide. and if be can be secured General
Paws should employ him regardless of
cost

AS there seems to prevail some misappre-
hension, in various sections OF the state. in
regard to the University of Mississippi |
ask, respectfully, the privilege of making
through your columns, Il statement of facts
rs they are, and to assure the public that
tor the truthfulncss of this statement | am
fully responsible:
l. There is entire Harmony between the
Board OF Trustees and the Faculty; there is
no diSsenslon between these bodies: both
are pursuing their special duties, a..h in its
appropriate sphere, without discord,
AZ. Prof. Hilgard had determined to accent
the Professorship of the University OF Mich
igan. long before Commandments The
reasons inducing him to resign his Profess
sOrship in this University, (as | have the
best authority to say,) were altogether diff
ferent from those attributed to him. Ii is
known here that he ana his family leave
this Institution with the greatest reluc-
lance.
g. Prof. Shields, who had graduated in
Law, twelve months since, resigned to enter
upon the practice of his profession for
which his native gifts, assiduOus culture,
and superior attachments emincntly qualify
him. His resignation was step couten-
plated Tor months before commencement,
and he has entered into partnership with Il
Trustee, who is member of the legal pro-
fession. lie leaves the University with the
cordial esteem and best wishes OF Trustees,
Faculty and Students.
4. DIR. Garland has stated to me that he
had neither desire nor design to leave the
University of Mississippi, rs he is perfectly
satisfied with his position. The future is
unknown to any OF us. but certainly this is
true of his present status on this subject.
5. 1t is stated the 8 Board refused to grant
the additional Professorships demanded by
the Faculty" To this statement have two
answers To present, as follows:
FIRST The Faculty demanded no additional
Professorships nome totateoer.
Second. The Chancellor's Annual Report
called attention to the fact, that the Chair
of English Literature was vacant, and re-
commended that il be filled. This the Board
promptly proceeded to do by the election OF
Rev John l.. johnson TO the Chair Mr. j
is an eminent Baptist Minister and an expe-
rienced educator, graduate of the Univer-
sity of Virginia.
G. The salaries were reduced, it is true ;
but for the reason that the income of the
University had fallen below the usual
amount.
In the action of the Board reducing the
salaries, however, it is Distinctly stated
that it is only temporary, and it is conf
IDENTIFY believed that the salaries will not re-
main reduced for moe than few months.
