Dispatches from Boyle'’scamp, dated Sunday, relate the particulars of an atrocious massacre of Modoc prisoners, supposed to have been pe: | bg pe by Oregon volunteers. Saturday morn- ng James Fairchild and about a dozen other men left Fairchild’s ranche, Cottonwood creek, with seventeen Modoe captives, including wo- men and children, and Shack Nasty Jim, Bogus Charley, Techee, Jack Pony, and Little Jobn. The Indians were in @ wagon drawn by four mulcs. At the crossing of Lost river the party encountered @ band of Oregon volunteers, under command of Capt. Aiser. The soldiers gathered about the het ge soso uestioned Fair- child. The latter told them Indians were all Hot Creeks, except Little John, and that there were no charges om them. Fairchild undertook to push on to Boyle’s camp, and the volunteers retired to their camp near Crowley's. On the road Fairchild noticed two men aheal, riding to Rocky Point as if to intercept him: Office department has received official notice of the ratification by the governments of Sweden and Norway of the postal convention recently concluded here between the United States and those kingdoms. Intormation is also received that the late additional treaty with Belgium has been ratitied by the Belgian gov- ernment. THE PoLaRis® INVESTIGATION at the navy- yard is still in progress, and is conducted by Secretary Robeson in person with closed doors, with every precaution to prevent newspaper reporters from getting hold of the facta devel- oped.

New York, June 10.—The counsel for Lester Wallack, against whom four suits have been brought for the infringement of the civil rights bill, have put in their answer to the complaint made by ex-Judge Culver in behalf of the col ored men. Mr, Wallack sets up the special defense, through his counsel, that he owns and conducts his theater as a private business, and that he has sold and will sell tickets, at his own discretion or pleasure, to different’ persons at different prices, and that when persons apply to him for tickets, he sells or declines to sell, as he sces fit.
