Fears of'a Coalition of the Tribes—Great Ex- oitement Among tho Settlers, VAN BreMer’s RANCH (By courler to Yreka, Cal.), March 30, 1873. ‘Another ten days will probably elapse betore the final settlement of the Modoo diMouities, whether it be peace or war. I have great faith, however, that the presence of the military in such close Proximity to their stronghold witl tend to make Captain Jack more reasonable in his demands, and perhaps result in his accepting the terms offered and ‘the final settlement of that branch of the Modoc tribe on some distant reservation. DISPOSITION AND NUMBER-OF THE TROOPS, Major Edwin 0, Mason, of the Twenty-first infan- try, 18 commanding, the troops encamped on the east side of Tule,Lake, about three miles from Cap- tain Jack’s cave. His division comprises compa- nies C, B and L of the Twenty-first infantry, troops B and G of the First cavalry, and a detacament of the Fourth artillery, with two howitzers. The troops at this camp, ‘consisting of troops F, K and H ofthe First cavalry, batterles E, A and M of the Fourth artillery, and two companies of the Twelfth infantry, leave here to-morrow en route for their new camp in the lava beds at the foot of the bluits. Major Green, of the First cavalry, is in command of this division, and the entire army, amounting to about seven handred men, is under the command of General Gillem, Colonel of the First cavalry, We will camp to-morrow night at Klamath Lake, about half way between Van Bremer’s and the Java beds, and finish our journey on Tuesday. RATTLESNAKES AND REBELS. Major Mason reports that the lava beds swarm with rattlesnakes and scorpions and platoons of rebels that will not add to our personal comfort. Boston Charley came in from the lava beds yester, day and returned to-day with the intelligence that the troops were coming up to see them. The members of the Penge Commisston and General Eanby \ will move to morrow with the troops, and we shall probably have a big powwow with the Modoes before the end of the week, JACK LOQKING FOR AUYIRS, Hooker Jim and ‘three others of Captain Jack's band wore up at Yianax reservation the other day, and it 1s feared they were trying to seduce the peeceanie Indians to joln their party. The troops will make no aggressive movement until the Peace Commissioners have been allowed to exercise their talking faculties, but moral persuasion of a war- like nature will be introduced. The Military in the Lava Beds=—f right of the Peace Commissioners—A Long Pow- wow with Captain Jack and His Braves. Lava BED OaMP, April 2, 1873, Last Monday morning the troops moved from Van Bremen's ranci and camped that evening on Klamath Lake. They started again early yesterday morning, and arrived at the top of the bluffs about noon. The Peace Commissfoners were with the command, and were evidently much disappointed at not finding the Indians out to meet them, as | they had promised to come out Tuesday morning to talk. The afternoon was devoted to the busi- ness of GOING INTO CAMP at the foot of the bluffs on the southern shore of Tule Lake. The wagons were obliged to remain up above, and the baggage and provisions were packed down on tents. The camp is tolerably well located on the west side of the lava beds and is about two and a half miles from Captain Jack's cave. There is plenty of water and grass, but wood is scarce and has to be packed from the top of the bluifs. HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS CAPTAIN JACK. Yesterday evening Boston Charley came in from Captain Jack’s and said that His Royal Highness would be ready to talk to-day, The night passed away very quietly, with the ex- ception of @ scare on the part of two members of the Peace Commission, Messrs. Meacham and Dwyer. These gentlemen are certainly rather nervous regarding the safety of their hair, and the former aroused General Gillem in the middle of the night with some squaw yarn that the Modocs wete going to attack the camp. General Gillem put out an extra picket in order to:calm the FEARS OF THE DESCIPLES OF MORAL SUASION, who also took the precaution to sleep with his boots on, In order to be ready for a run across the rocks., The Rev. Mr. Thomas is the only Peace Commissioner here who appears to understand his business and treats with the Indians as if he was not alraid of them. GRAND POWWOW. ‘This afternoon General Ca nby, the Peace Com- missioners, Mr. Riddle and squaw and the old chief Schonchin and the stam had a talk with Captain Jack, John Schonchin, Scar-Faced Charley, Shacknasty Jim, Hooker Jim and four or five others of the leading men of the tribe. The powwow was heid about half a mile out of camp, and the press representatives were excluded by orders of the Peace Commissiouers, | and not by the Indians, as the latter had nothing to conceal, Jack and Schonchin both made long speeches, 1n which they recapitulated what they said to the HERaLy correspondent on the occasion of his first visit relative to his stay on Klamath reservation and the origin of the first fight, The Peace Commissioners, never baving heard this speech before, were much delighted, and intimated after their revurn that they bave great hopes of arranging @ treaty to-motrow, ALD AND COMPORT FOR THR ENEMY.

Tam, however, rather sceptical on that Point, and maintata that the Modocs will have to be “licked” before they can be induced to goon a distant reservation. ‘ THE MILITARY OLOSING UP, Orders have been sent to Colonel Mason, com. manding the forces on the east side of the lake, to move up and camp at Hospital Rock, a point about amile and a half to eastward of Captain Jack's stronghold. The Modocs and maths Tampering with the Yainox—Insolence of the In- dians and Fears of the Settlers. San Francisco, April 4, 1873, A despatch from Yreka to-night says that on March 27th 300 troops broke camp and marched to the upper end of Little Klamatn Lake, The Ih- dians refused to come out and talk that day, but promised to come next Sunday. On March 22 Hooker Jim and a party of Inaians Were seen at Alkall Lake, where they corralled seventy-five horses, On the following Tuesday the same Indians were seen at Yainox Reservation, where they talked all night, THE MODOCS AND THE KLAMATHS Urged them to join Captain Jack. Hooker Jim said that five tribes of Indians were ready to. join Captain Jack whenever he could get out of the lava beds. Hooker Jim told the reservation fndians that it would mot be safe for them to remain friendly to the whites. During the night he sent two squaws toa white man named Jordan to buy powder, but the latter refused to sell any. EXCITEMENT AMONG THE PEOPLE. The people of Sprague River are greatly excited and are leaving the country near the reservation of the Modecs. ‘The Klamath Indians are also seriously alarmed. The people living near Goose Lake have petitioned the Governor at ‘Oregon for brotection, INSOLENCE OF THE INDIANS, The Pence Commissioners have had a talk with the Modocs, who made the same old speeches. They refuse, the proposition for. their re- moval, and want to be let alone and to have the troops sent away. Captain Jack is insolent and overbearing. He said that he had already stated his terms; he knew no other coun- try and would goto no other. Schonchin’s speech was to the same effect, THE ATLANTIC’S PASSENGERS, Arrival of Some of the Rescued at Port- land. PORTLAND, Me., April 6, 1873.

[From the Phitadelphia Evening Herald, April 1.) For the past two or three years the New York HERALD has been in the habit each day of issuing supplements of four or eight pages to its reguiar editions in order to accommodate its extensive and growing advertising patronage, and the thing had become so monotonous that we were hardly urprised to meet our familiar contemporary and namesake on Sunday last in the distended form of @ quadruple sheet, with supplement, in ali eighteen pages—making the largest daily newspaper ever published. Nearly twelve pages were taken up with advertisements, numbering over three thou- sand separate announcements—the receipts for which must have amounted to a small fortune. ‘This is an old story, but this meident seemed to demand 4 notice at our hands, {From the Lockport (N.

The principal reason of the HxRatp’s success is that it prints the news, no matter where It is to be found, at what expense or of what character. It does not lumber up its columns with heavy matter and po- lemic dissertations like some of its logy contempo- raries.

WASHING TON. Wasumeron, Aprit 4, 4373. Circular from the Comptroller of “he Currency. The Comptroller of the Currency, in a circular issued to national banks, says the $54,000,000 of additional currency has been apportioned to banks already organized or in process of organisation in the Western aud Southern States; but the whole amount has not been tssued, and may not be. issued for some months to come, possibly not until the meeting of the mext Congress.

The Comptroller says that the amount issued to New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Isiand and Connecticut is largely in excess ofthe amount intended by tle law, and that no further issue Of circulation beyond the amount already approved will be isaued to national banks In those States, Regulations for the Withdrawal of Alcohol from Bond for Scientific Pur- Poses, Regulations were to-day issued from the Treasury Department for the withdrawal of alcohol from bond for scientific purposes under the act approved February 21, 1873, They require when alcoho! is to be withdrawn from bond under tho provisions of the act, the President or Curator of the institution in which the same is to be used will make, through the Collector of the Internal Revenue of the dis- trict in which the alcohol is located, @ written ap- Plication to the Secretary of the Treasury for a permit to withdraw such alcohol, and will state in his application the name and lecation of the in- Stitution in which the same is. to be used, and furnish either in, or accompanying theapplication evidence that the institution named is a corpo- rated or chartered s¢etentific institution or college of learning.
