marU-lm MqJ«, An, on Orintnce Duty.
to give you tixe particulars, I will hastily of
fer you an acoount of the recent murderB in
the neighboring county of Gillespie, at the
same time expressing my fears that our time
msy come next. ’
One of the victims of the savages was Jim
Little, whose body was found terribly mutila
ted, the flesh being qut from him as ifthe -In-
dians had oooked it!
Two other viotims were two children named
Holstein, on Beaver creek, who were way
laid hear tly» residenoe of iheir re»-onis.
while the latter were at chut’ 11 -
appearance oi their damp in, a neighboring
thicket, it would seem that the murderers had
been lurking about two or three days, wait
ing an opportunity to oarrY out their fiendish
design. I was told that last year the Indians
oarrieil off another boy of the Holstein's and
sold him iu Arizonia, from whence he woe
brought bsok not long slnoe. They appear
to have a brutal spite against this family.
Still another victim’, was Mr. Hudson, who,
with hie son of twelve years, were out hunt
ing sheep. The Indians lulled the father ont-
rignt and wounded the boy badly; yet he had
strength to orawl to a house two miles distant
from the scene and give an aeoount of the
massaore.
The fifth on the list of the murdered, was
H. Auhelger, who has a f—otho. working in
this town, aud who soems to have fought with
Spartan courage, and who achieved Oven more
than Spartan success, as be drove off hie ene
mies; While himself and another man were
out hunting oattle, some six mites from Fred-
ericksburg, they suddenly encountered a par
ty of Indians. Annelger, being on a mule,
was compelled to dismount and take to a tree,
His companion, on a feet horse, made h!a es
cape into town. We shall never learn the
particulars of. the brave Anhelger’e fight, but
ire have the reaulte, and they tell the story of
a fearful conflict. The next morning a party
of rangers were conducted to the spot, and
on searching the tree they fonnd it stu«k full
of arrows, while a pool - of blood at the foot
showed that the unfortanate man had been
desperately wounded. Following the blood
track the distance of some three hundred
yards, they fonnd the body of poor Annelger,
stiff and eold, laying with bis face downward,
his right hand snattered and orippled by ar
rows and his left clutching, with an iron grip,
the six-shooter, with which he had kept his
foes at bay. . .
On searebing around, the body of one In
dian, stone dead, was found, while two blood
-rails, in the traokon wh?ch they had retreat
ed, showed that a number of his enemies had
been wonnded. Searching ‘till further, the
party discovered ho less -than eigh*y three
arrows on the tree, on the ground, and in the
person of Anhelger, who had been hit over
forty times in the hand, arm, right shonlder,
leg and body. Few have ever heard or re?d
of such a coiflict, and it would seem that the
lone man was in the end victorious. The
trail of the savages was followed until dark,
but a shower in the night unfortunately ob
literated aU traces of it, yet on looking for
it on the following morning they fell upon
the trail of ten Indians, three on horeebaok
and seven on foot. This was followed un
til the savages wero canght, charged upon,
three of their number kiiied, and two or
three otheriF wounded, but who esoaped.—
Whether it was the party beaten off by An
helger can never be known. I have made
this acconnt of the affair an short as possi
ble ; it deserves a longer reo >rd.
Than the above I can give yon no names of
those who have been massacred of late, bnt,
I am told that a few days since a man was
killed over in Bandera county, and his son, a
mere yontb, carried off captive. J also learn
tw Judge Starkley’e horses, in Kerr county,
were driven off a .few nights since. So it
goes. We are in a sad situation, here in the
mountains, and probably have not seen the
worst of it. One of the rangers, stationed at
one of the frontier camps, told me openly that
his company had not been supplied with am
munition enough, of good quality, to shoot a
rabbit—I use his own words—and I am fear
ful Ihe handful of men still left on the fron
tier are not mueh better off.
If the enrolling officers are still at work in
this section, they should bestir themselves to
get all the conscripts before the Indians kill
them off; for if the savages keep on at their
present rate, we shall soon have no able-bod-

A second was so badly punished that she floated

This is rather an unfavorable plinght for the

the laies do not lavor mem.
Since the late campaign against Viksburg apd
Port Hudson commenced, aud it has not been
three months, the enemy have lost, in killed,
wounded, sickness and desertion, over 50,000
men! And what have they accomplished l—
Vicksburg and Port Hudson are both in the
hands of the Confederates, and both places are
becoming impregnable. W hat have they done ?
They have lust their boats, lost their soldiers,
lost their sailors, and gained in their place a few
negroes to populate the Great West! It is true
they have burnt our villages, destroyed many of
our plantations, and dune other disgraceful acts,
yet wo have the cousolatioo oi knowing that
the effect of these proceedings must recoil upon
their own beads at a future oay. When they
make the people of the South poor by acts of
infamy, they forthwith strike a blow to their
own homes and make themselves beggars on
the rich soil of a bounteous West.

A California Story.
In the northern part of the State (California)
is a stream called Yuba river.' Across it eo"-e
enterprising individual built a bridge ; and, oq j
the banks somebody else built three or four |
houses. The inhabitants ‘ailed ibe place Yuba !
Dam Thiey bars were instantly c’n c ed, and j
the “town" increased rapidly. About noon one
cool day, a sojourner iu the laud p<esed <hU I
flourishing localny, and seeing a Imm-l-gued
specimen of humanity in a red shirt smoking
betore one of the bars, and thus addressed mm :
“Hollo! ’
"Hello!” replied the shirt with vigor, remov
ing he pipe from his month.
* Wtiai p ace is this I" demanded the traveller,
whose name Waa Thompson.
The answer ot the atari was unexpected:
“Yuba Dam !” q
There was about fifty yards bet ween them,
and tho wind was blowing. Mr Thompson
thon&hf he had been mistaken.
"What did you- say ?" he a‘ked.
"Yuba Dam,” replied the shirt cheer r ul[v,
“What place is this?" roared Mr. Thomp
son. s
“Ynba Dam!" said the shirt in a slightly el
evated tone of voice.
“Lo'okee here!" yelled the irate Thom pson,
"I asked you politely what this plepe was, why
in.the thunder dont you answer t"
The stranger became excited. He rose and
replird with the voice ot an eightv-pounder
“You-baDam! Do you hear tha: l”
In a minute Thompson, burning with the
wrath of the righteous, jumped off his horse
and advanced on the stranger wiihanexpros
sion not to be mistaken. The shirt aross and
assumed a posture of offense and defense.
An ived within a yard of him, Thompson
said,s
“ i a-k you, for the last time, what place is
this?”
Patting his hand to his mont, his opponent
roared:
“ You-ba Dam!”
The next moment they were at it. First
Thompson was down; then the shirt; then it
was a dog fall—that is, both were down.—
They foiled about and kiobed up a tremen
dous duBt,. They sqnirmed - around so ener
getically, that you’d thought they had a doz
en legs instead of four. It looked like a prize
fight between two pugilistic centipedes. Fi
nally, they both rolled on the bank and into
the river. The water cooled them. They
went down together, but came up separately,
and pnt for. the shore. Both reached it about
the same time, and Thompson scrambled' up
the bank, mounted his war-like steed, leav
ing his foe gouging the mud out of one of his
Wyee.
Having left the business portion of tbe town
—that ia. the corner where the.three bars were
kept—he s'rnck a house in the suburbs, before
which a little girl of about three years old was
playing.
"What place is this, sissy?" he asked.
The little girl, frightened at the drowned rat
figure which the stranger cut, streakdd it tor the
house. Having reached'the door she stopped—
turned, and squeaked—“Oobbee-dam! "
