They had progressed somo sixty foot, mid wcro blasting in tho rock. A ohargo or hi 1st had failed to take fire, from fault of tho fuse, probably. They wore in tho act of drilling out the hole again, when tho chargo exploded with a fright ful crash, badly mutilating Mr. Itronan. Mr. Johnson escaped with only slight bums. - Mr. Ilrennn was immediately brought to town nn a litter, and Dr. Greer wus called to itttond Mm.

Wo learn from the Crcscont City Her ald tiiat seventeen of tho band of In diniis that has been committing mur ders and depredations about the mouth of Rogue River have, been hilled, lenv ing.only two bucks. It appears that Indian Agent Tichenor, had started tn tak,o them to tho Reserve, but they broko away and refused to go, when an armed party of the citizons of Gold Reach Intercepted and killed thirteen of them. A few days later tho remain ing six bucks of tho band camo among tho Smith River Indians, a few miles from Crescent City, when they were attacked by the friendly Indians and four of tlio number killed, including tho chief. This, wo presume, about ends the Indian difficulties in that quarter. It Is well that theso Indians Imvo boen killed, for they wero of a very bad nud unrvliablo character, and have com niltted a score nr so of murder, and many mlnnr depredations, and the peo ple nl Gold Reach were only acting in obedience to tlio law or siupreserva tlon when they killed them.
