Our readers will remember that this narrutiva w is broken off at tho point where tbe Southern Oregon Volunteers were in camp, passing tho time as best they could, and that on a certain even ing Con Hillman bad promised to tell them about the massacre at the mouth of Rogue river, if they would come next morning to the tent of the Lieut Colonel. Tbe narrative continues as follows: As the news of tbe massacre at the mouth of Rogue river was meagre, the gathering of a large crowd at the Lieut, Col.’s tent to hear a more particularized account by Con Hillman,was tbe result cf that gentleman’s promiso to relate, as far as he was able, a detailed ac count of that tieudish tragedy. Pres ently Hillman emerged from the tent, and seating himself on a pile of wood at the door, began as follows.- “I met Agent Wright in Crescent City about tbe first of February, 185C, and had a long confidential conversa tion with hiru in relation to Indian af fairs, and the most feasible and speedy way of bringing the difficulty to a close. He detailed at length his views of the situation and gave bis method of keep ing, as he thought, a close watch of the Indians and their movements in Lis de partment. But it has provon to be the old story-he placed too much trust in a friendly Indian. Instead of haying an eye on the re.if intentions of tLe savages,he was gulled by the friendly savage, who told the Indians all that Wright him self intended to do. Thus tbe Indiaus kept a strict watch over him, while he knew nothing whatever of the real do ings of his savage charge. Wright returned to Rogue river about tbe 18th of the month, aud went on with bis plans for surrounding,with the aid of volunteers and regulars, the Indians, and bringing them all down to the mouth of tbe river aud keeping them prisoners there until tbe close ut, the war. Wright’s confidants kept tbe Indians well posted in regard to the proposed movement, while he as cand idly told Wright a fictitious story of tbe good intentions of tbe Indians. Another of Wright’s confidants was a Canadian Indian called Enos, who spoke good English aud knew all the phases of American and Indian life. This Indian lived mostly with Wright, but spent a portion of his time with the Indians. Having a wife belonging to the Tootootney tribe, which lived at the mouth of the river and within a mile of Wright’s house and office, he could thus be at both places daily, and in undisturbed intercourse with both parties. He was a smoothed-tongued and smi’ing Indian, to al! appearances an innocent and kind individual, bat really deep, crafty and dangorous.
