IMPORTANT YRoM. THE INDIAN
Country.—We stated a short time
since, that the Indians in the neighborhood of Four Creeks were dissatisfied, on account of not having received rations, as other Indians had,
farther north, and were about to hold
a council, to determine on their future
policy. What determination they
eame to, is not as yet known, but it is
feared that mischief is brewing. Yesterday a merchant of this ci'y, received
n letter from Major Savage, dated
Nov. 8th, in which he remarks, “ Indian affairs look rather dark at the
present time; what will be the result
time will only determine.” ‘The man
who brought this letter, informs us
that the Major had been on a visit to
San Francisco, and had just returned
home. He found on h's arrival, that
three of his squaws had left (a sure
sign of danger or difficulty) and those
that remained, informed him that it.
was well he returned, as mischief was
meditated by the Indians. During his
absence, so.ne Indians, from the lower
country arrived on the reservation
upon the Fresno, where Savage's
‘store is, and it is supposed toat they
instigated Savage’s Iudians to revolt.
We are told that on the Fresno the
Indians are better clothed than they
ever were before. They get rations
of beef from government, and they
have a good supply of acorns for
winter. ‘There are placers upon the
Fresno, where they can dig gold, and
Savage is now getiing up a supply of
gooda, to seil them during the winter.
