San Fuanci&co, April, 12. — A courier has arrived here from the lava beds, mid reports that Major General Canby and I)r. Thomas were murder ed by the Modoes yesterday while hold ing a peace conference. [SECOND Dl-SPATCn.] Lava Bed Camp, April 13, via Ui:eka, April 12.—Yesterday after noon five Indians and lour squaws came into our camp and were made presents of clothing and provisions by the peace commissioners, and a mes sage was sent out by the commission ers asking for a talk this morning at a point about a mile from our picket line. I>ater in the evening Bogus Charley came in and told the picket tha( he could take his gun, that lie (Charley) did not intend to go back any more. The picket brought him in and took him to the tent of Genera] Canby, where Charley left his guu aud remained at the tent of Frank Biddle during the night. This morning Bos ton Charley came in and told the com mission that Captain Jack and five other Indians would meet the com mission outside our lines. Boston Charley and Bogus Charley then mounted horses aud staitcd for the lava bed. About an hour after their departure General Canby, Dr. Thomas, Mr. A. B. Mcaclmm and Mr. Dyer, with Frank Biddle and his squaw for in terpreters, started for the place ap pointed. The party arrived at the ap pointed place and were closely watch ed by the signal olficer, Lieutenant Adams, from the signal station on the hill overlooking our camp. About half an hour after the party had ar rived, a cry from the signal station was heard, sayiug that the Indians had attacked the peace commissioners, and that an engagement had commenced between the Indians and Colonel Ma son. In a moment the troops were under arms and deployed as skirmish- era, under command of Colonel Green and-pidcra were given to forward dtabie-quick. '■ Very shortly after Mr. Dyer re- ti&^Losd tald us that the Indians had attacked them, and dial he thought he was the only one who had escaped. But in a few moments after Biddle and his squaw were seen within the pit&ek line. From him we gather the fallowing account of how the messaere commenced: Mr. Mercham made a short speech to the Indians, followed by General Canby, and then Dr. Tluimas. Tlicu Captain Jack madea speech, asking for Hot Creek and Cot tonwood, places now occupied by Fkirehihl and Dorris, for reservations. JfoJffiadftyn-tpld Captain Jack tliat it was not possible to give him what he Bchoncliin told Mencham to say no thorcthat he (Meacham) had ritid enough upon that subject, and while Schoncbin was speaking, Captain Jack got. up and walked behind the Others, turned back and exclaimed, “ All ready.” lie then drew his pis tol'and snapped the cap at Genera] Canby. lie then cocked his pistol again aud tired, and General Canby fcl^d&ul, shot under the eye. Schou- dmi then shot Meacham in (he shout- demand head, but he is still alive, lkaton Charley and another Indian thp^ aud killed Dr. Thomas. Hooker "Jim chased Dyer for some distance, but Dyer turned ujxm him with pis- •JwL.iu baud and Jim ran. An Indian •knocked the squaw of Riddle off her h^audjopk it, but Captain Jack /njajc him return it, and then unothor Jndian chased Riddle and shot at him. „£kuue allowance may be made for the 'tljithbl this la.-t statement Zfee troops are now in the Liva beds Itfuif ami llieir arms and will probably advance to-nigbt under cover of dark- ’"rnsra? There are here about six hun- ‘ tired troops which can be brought out tuU> active service, and it is believed they will end the Modoc war. Mr. Meacham la not expected to ni|(n<Cr • . V. San Francisco, April 13.—*The following dispatch has been received . •» • Hbawh-ateks Modoc Eepedi- Coxflict Between Negroes and Whites in Louisiana.—The steamer Southwestern brings the following from Grant Paris: The negroes have barricaded themselves in Colfax Court house, numbering 400, thoroughly armed. One hundred and fifty men gathered from llie surrounding par ities and made an attack at Sunday noon upon the court house, which was stormed at three o’clock. The negroe refugeod in the court house, after fur ther fighting, displayed a flag of truce. Several detachments moved on the court house, when negroes opened fir*, Captain Harderot was shot by Bowles, it is feared, fatally. They re treated outside the court house and fired. The negroes’ shot caine from tiie burning building. It is reported that from eighty to one hundred ne groes were killed, and were none to be found for miles around. The ringlcad ers and white allies escaped. The Captain of the Southwestern confirms the above report. He saw eighteen or twenty dead negroes, and and brought two hundred whites to Alexandria. All was quiet when the Southwestern left Colfax Sunday eve ning. “ Every person or firm liable to special tax, must, on or before the 30th day of April of each y/faiyorbefore commencing buisness, if such business is commenced subsequent^ April 30th file with the collector, or deputy cjllec- tor, a sworn statement on form.

Editors Northeast Georgian: We are sorry that we are once more compelled to lay before the reading public a reply’to J. O’F., but as he tired the first shot at the United Friends of Temperance, we, as its advocates and and supporters, must nor cau not let slide the hurling shaft that tends to in jure our Southern moral institution, and as ti de blooded Southerners, who first voted for secession that planted its name high on the landmark of the fu ture, we will see our moral institutions ot temperance sunk into the lowest pits of oblivion, where seas of whiskey may roll forever over its fallen gramluer, before we will submit to negro equality that the philanthropists of the North are daily seeking through our moral Orders to force the stain of fraternity with our former slaves, by admitting their elegibility to membership around our firesides and family circles, which are embraced in even’ temperance or ganization. The suprcinaey of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars of Georgia, which J. O’F. rests bis hopes upon, is a mere shell of fancy when brought to its true status; owning its subordination to the R. W. G. Lodge of the world, I.would ask every thinking mind how can subordinate body be supreme? “ Ad mitting tliat Georgia Good Templars in their Grand Lodge have the supreme control of elegibility to membership in •their Order, and Mississippi, North Carolina, Maryland and other South ern States have not this supremacy, and have negro Lodges of Good Temp lars forced upon them; can J. O’F., as a true Southern man, wish this supremacy, when his brothers who fought side by side with him iu the late war, have now this social equality forced upon them ? Me thinks not, and when liis warm responsive heart feels thisre- tio p-rctive glauee, he will leave an Order first instituted at the .North by the Yankees, aud oime under the great white burner of (he United Friends of Temi eracoe, reared and- nursed w, the ortho ftorilK' ■ ' OLD BOIES T WILL PAY ONE CENT PER X I’Orsn furiill BONKS .leim rt t tunc. mlilS-tf .1. 11.

Suf fice it; then; repudiate a Southern horn moral Order and cling to an Order germinated in the hearts aud iu the lapd of the. Yankeenation of th&North. Wfe are trying to unite tho body of good temperance people of the South in one grand Southern-Order, to wage war upon the immoral acts of outan- ebrif ites, and we feel like John Randolph of Virginia, “the Greeks own doors,” and we hiy|g>ork^B3khl at home to do.
