The information was commanicated to the President at a late hour Saturday night, by Adjutant General Townsend, and G i man Was also apprised at a late hour of the o currence. The President has umnresery expressed his sanction of the severest measn now necessary to properly punish the Modo: and his views in this respect have been fa stated to the authorities acting under the War vtment.

It is unnecessary to say that the news of the massacre created a profound sensation of sorrow and a feeling of deep indignation against the perpetrator of the outrage arfd his savage allies. It seems that on Thursday afternoon last five Indians and four squaws came into camp and were made presents of clothing and provisions, and a m.xs- age was sent out by the commissioners asking tor a talk on Friday morning ata point about a mile from the picket line. THE FIRST ACT OF TREACHERY. Later in the evening Bogus Charley came in and told the pieket that he could take bis gun, that he Ghariex) did not intend to go back au more. The picket brought him in and took him to the tent of General Canby, where Cliar- ley left his gun and remained at the tent of Frank Riddle during the night. Friday morn- ing Boston Charley came in and told the com- mission that Captain Jack and five other In- dians would meet the commission outside our lines. | Boston Charley and Bogus Charley then mounted horses and started for the lava bed. GOING TO THEIR DEATH. About an hour after their departure General Canby, Dr. Thomas, Mr. A.B. Meacham and Mr. Dy ith Frank Riddle and hi interpreters, started for the place appointed. The party arrived at the ype place and were cl watehed by the signal officer, Lieutenant Adams, from the signal station on the bill overlooking the camp.

Your dispatch, announcing the terrible toss to the country of Gen.

You will be fully justified in their utter extermination. W. T. SuerMaw, General. A copy of the same dispatch was forwarded to Gen. Schofield at the same time. The following dispatch was yesterday for warded to Gen. Schofield by Gen. Sherman ASHINGTON Gen. J. M.

Last night, about midnight, General Townsend came to’ my house with a’ dispatch from Gen. Gillem to the same effect as yours, which dispatch he had shown to the President, and I answered Gen.

He always considered his home at Crawfordsville, in that state. What General Sherman Says, In conversation to-day, General Sherman was asked if he did not believe this act of Indian treachery was unparalleled, upon which he replied im his quick, nervous way, “No, sir; treachery is inherent in the Indian ebaracter. I know of acase where the Indsans murdered the man who not over two hours before bad given them food and cioth- ing. He then re! several instances of Indian treachery and barbarity of which he be- came cognizant when in the west. He says the President is deeply affected by the death of General Canby, and fully concurs with him in believing that NO MERCY WHATEVER should be shown towards the Modues. He has perfect contidence in Generals Schofield and Gillem, and believes they will be fully equal to the task of punishing the Modocs. He does not think the Modocs will be able to escape, although the topography of the lava beds something of a puzzleto him. He has no in- tention, as has n stated, of going to the Modoc country to personally superintend ope- rations, as he deems his presence there quite unnecessary. ° Some surprise has been expressed that Gen. Canby would allow Capt. Jack to snap his pis. tol at him without offering any resistance, it must be remembered that the public has as BUT ONE ACCOUNT OP T: and that by Peace Commissioner Dyer and the friendly Indian, Riddle, both of whom were probably so much astounded and frightened at the sudden onslaught that they did not stop long enough to learn all the particulars. {t ix customary in many cases to carry no weapon of any kind under such circumstances, ith quite possible that Gen. Canby was entirely un- arm ind seeing the futilit, resixtance met “his fate heroically, instead of endeavoriay to escape, as prudence would have dictated. Views of Se Delano. Secretary Delano declares that he will ask no mercy for the Modocs, as they have acted in the most outrageous manner, and are no longer necessary for their present and future welfare. By the 2d article of the treaty concluded with the Kiamath and Modoc tribes of Indian: od tober 14, 1864, (stats. at large, vol. 16, p. 707, the following tract of country was set apart a= a reservation for said Indians, Beginui a, upon the eastern shore of the middie Kiama: lake, at a-point of rocks about twelve miles low the mouth of Williamson's river; thence following up sail eastern shore to the mouth of Wood river; thence up Wood river to a polat one mite north of the bridge at Fort Klamath thence due east to the summit of the ri which divides the upper and middle lakes; thence gone said ridge toa point due east of the north of the upper lake; thence due east, passing the said north end of the up- per lake, to the summit of the mountains on ti east side of the lake; thence along said mo: tain toa point where Sprague’s river is inter- sected by the Ish-tish-ea-wax creek; thence in a southerly direction to the summit of the mou tains, the extremity of which forms the Po: of Rocks; thence along said mountain to th beginning;” and it was stipulated by icle that “the tribesaforesaid 4 e MASSACRE, be granted them intendent or agent having charge The Modocs, however, or that portion of them not now on the reservation, have refused to ate on account of the Klamaths, with whom they are not on terms of amity.
