Indian Agent Tichenor, had started tn

broko away and refused to go, when
an armed party of the citizons of Gold

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
