TIE nIoDoC MASSACRE.

The murder of Candy and Dr.
Thomas on Saturday last, by Capt.
Jack in the Lava Beds of Califor-
lila. is one Of the most shocking
and .amentable events Of the day,
ard it aggravates AID increases che
difficulties which have heretofore
attended all efforts at a just and
mcrciful course toward the Indians.
Who now will be willing to grant
them a military. conference to save
the slaughter which mast attend
an unconditional surrender! As
far Is the telegraph informs us,
there would seem to have been no
possible excuse for this trcachery.
The whole course Of Gen. Candy
seems to have been dictated by de
sire to deal mercifully with his saw
aye and bloodthirsty foe. From
the very inception of this trouble
with the Modocs, their course
seems to have been a reckless ad-
mixture of cruel revenge and base
trcachery. OF course the Modocs
will he hunted down, and that too,
at the cost of many of our own PEG
Pile 1t VII be impossible for
Capt Jack 10 secrete himself, or
find permanent refuge On the con
tincnt. He will be chased from the
cAarred chambers of his volcanic
retreat and slain, or the porous sur
tace Of the lava beds will beneath the
blow of some incensed and furious
survivor of Candy, drink his blood.
We VIII not pause to look back up
on Gen. Candy, as the unwelcome
and arbitrary depository of militia
r. force, when the civil life of Vir-
GINA was suspended by the unnat-
ural and unnecessary stupor, viii ii
succeeded the downfall of the
southern movement. Let us look
upon him now, as a martyr in the
peaceful policy of our government,
which really desired to deal gener-
ousiy and leniently with the un-
tanned children of that strange and
unknown period, when the CONT
nent we now enjoy, was unknown
to cultivated and christian people.
There can be no doubt, that it is
our dutv to make Of this Modoc
butchery, terrible and fearful ex-
ample, and there can be as little
question, that two races as antagO-
nistic as the white men and the In
dams, can not, and will not long
continue to occupy, by any Sort Of
common right, the almost bound
less f.ld which America affords,
for the highest and happiest de-
velopment Of man.

EDITOR Dallrs Herald;
DEAR SiR-We are having a
most unusual excitement hore at
present. An old gentlemen by the
name of Gilbert, who is well and
avorably known on this frontier
by most of tho old residents, has
been absent for some time past, but
recently made his appearance with
fabulous tales of gold discoveries
on the head. waters Of the Brazos,
which ho substantiates by showing
somo very fine specimens and rich
quartz rock. The natural conse.
qucnce is, our citizens have been
thrown into a wild state of excite
ment, and strong company has
just been organized under the CAPT.
fancy of Col. w. T. Waybourn, (our
popular sheriff. composed of the
best material-old miners and from
ticrsmcn-wcll armed and equipped.
and supplied with all necessary
mining tools, etc., and provisioned
for thirty days, and prepared to
start on the goth inst.
The old man Gilbert will accom-.
pany tho party as guido, although
IS years old, and worn from ia
tigue and exposure, is busily en-
gagged with his preparations, and
is sanguine that now, in his declin-
ing days, he has been successful in
realizing that which years of toll
and wandering through the wilds
of California and Nevada during
his long stay there failed to secure
him.
We will inform you of any good
results as soon as wo receive intel
ligence from Col. Waybourn's par
ty. We are sure that they will not
return without giving that region
thorough prospecting, and salts
fly Themselves to what extent the
mineral docs exist.
The long-talked,of "Wichita Ag-
ricultural, Mining apd Manufacture
ing Company's' advance guard is
camped near here, and is taking it
cas-, ewaiting for the grass to i'm.
prove. Success to it and all other
honest enterprises.
Respectfully, etc,

patrons OF tho companies The

sion, which IA now dividing two
great monicd monopolics, and they
arc paying TOO dearly for the ro'
suits which may ultimately ensuo

about such n minor.point, when tho
portals of justice arc open and n
clear way left them to decide finally
and fairly every matter Of differ
once which is now cntailing these
inconvcnionccs and losses upon our
people. We would suggest that If
nothing better can be done, that the
Legislature DO mcmorializod to re-
licve us from tho annoyanccs to
which we arc subjected by the
money kings of tho land, who have
everything in tho way Of transpor-
tation in their own hands, and who
are not willing to dictate merely
the terms upon which we may pa
tronize their institutions, but re-
serve the higher right of first talk

"to whistle down tho winds" for
our frcights. This sort Of foolish
ness don't build up cities and dc.

wo suggest that the people in the
majesty of their might demand an
end of it.
