LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
- WAS &pal 10th; IST3.
31n. Enrror. :--The crowd and the excite
ment which the inauguration brought. has •cft
scarce a trace. The great inauguration ball
building, that for weeks excited the publiccul
riosity, is about being demolished ; and, were
it not for a few of the impecunious Congr6as
men who have been anxiously waittsg for their
iiicresse of pay, we would, perhaps, have little
that would remind us of the scenes and excite
ments that were witnessed at the closing of the
session. At no time since the fam3as mapcieh
nfe.nt trial were the sittings of Congress' so
largely attended, or the same degree of inter
est manifested in their proceedings, as dnrihg
the few days.preceding its adjournment, when
the votes, particularly of oat going members,
were placed where they " would do the most
g cod " to themselv..
While the past session has not been pr 54 - c
us legislative acts., it will. at least, be remark
able for its Credit Mobilier investigations, the
repeal of the franking privilege, andl the in
crease 'of salaries, in all of which a very .decid
_o interest was evidently felt. Bow far the
people will sustain Congress in its action upon
these subjects, will of course remain for' the
-future to determine. Bat whatever may be
-thought of the Credit Mobilier business, upon
which their appears to be some diversity of
- opinion, it is very evident that these who voted
,for an increase of salary Will have something to
do to coniince the people of the necessity for
this new demand upon their pockets. Fifteen
thousand dollars fur less than ten months leg
islative service the taa - - - payer may think a.pret
ty large sum, especially with the heavy bur
densAready imposed upon him. The rather
thliCrttext that the repeal of the franking
pririlt„,gh, by' which the public only will be the
• suCerers, rendered this large increase a neces
sity, %rill scarcely be deemed a sufficieut excuse;
but, - Were such the fact, in what way it applies
to the restrospective increase of pay, will not
be so easily understood. The truth is, the
supporters-of the bill well knew there wrs no
hope fur its passage unless it was made retro r ,
active in its provisions, thereby securing a
large number of thc:ont going members.
It is a well understood fact that several' of
those who cast their rotas against the increase,
who felt that to do otherwise would endanger .
their political prospects, were active in secur
ing votes fur its passage. fr/ira those who bad
nothing farther to hope from their districts.
To the credit of the thirteenth District this
cannot be said of its dlepiresentative who, from
first to last, was openly and avowedly opposed
to the measure: Efforts will doubtless be
mailer° hold the Republican party responsible;
but we cannot well see how it can be made into
a party measure. The vote upon the question
exhibits the fact that the greatest number of
those who voted in the affirmative were demo
crats and liberals who. but a few months ago,
presented themselves to the public in the white
robes of reforns and rejnvination.
Judging from the sentiments of the press,
from the action of State 1(11i - 0z:tures and con
ventions of the people, these extra pay mem
berswilLhave rather d hard road to traveL The
Republican party, withorit the aid'of its ene-
Mica, has clearly demonstrated, by the recent
investigation in Congress, that it will in no way
afford protection to those who betrayed their
trust or have imposed ,upon its confidence, or
shield them from just condemnation.
The ribplition of the franking privilege, en
the score of economy, as many predicted, al•
ready begins to look more like a humbug than
a success. The appropriation for stamps for
the different Departments exceeds by some
three hundred thousand dollars the amount
appropriated last year under the old system.
Of course the expense of transporting the mails
will continue the same, so that the change will
make no reduction in this item. There is no
doubt of the abuse of the' franking privjleg,e,
but doubtless this could have been corrected
without its abolition; and 'trust that pub
lic sentiment will be so stirred upon the sub
ject that the next Congress will be induced to
remodel the law as it now stands. The pro
paynient of postage on newspapers will be se
verely felt by the local press of this country.
This p-rhays is the worst feature of the law,
as the ulatioa et id:ormatiou should cer
tainty be taxed as lightly -as Nssible.
With iha adj , ,grit..l,-it of the Senatil the ar

San . Fnancisco, April.l2.—A courier
has arrived here from the Lava Beds
and reports that Major General Can
by and Doctor Thomas were murder
ed by the Modocs yesterday while
holding a peace conference.
LiN,A. BED C. ,April 11, viatreke,
April 12.-=Yesterday afternoon' five
Indiana and ft:air squaws came into
our camp and were made presents of
clothing and provisions by thti Peade
Commissioners, and a message was
sent out by the Commissioners ask
ing for a talk thiS morning at a point
about a mile from our picket line.
Later in the evening Bogus Charley
came in and told the picket that he
could take his gun,and that he(Char
ley did not intend to go back any
more. The picket brought him in
and took him to the tent of General
Canby, where Charley left his gun,
and remained at the tent of Frank
Riddle during the night. This morn
ing Boston Charley came in and told
the camp that Capt. Jack and five
other Indians would meet the Com
mission outside of our lines. -Boiton
Charley: and Bogus Charky then
mounted a horse and started for the
Lava Beds.
Ma
. About an hour after their iiepart
ure Gen: Canby, Dr. Thomas, A. P.
Meacham and Mr. Dyer, with Frank
Riddle and his squaw, for interpre
ters, started for the place appointed.
The party arrived at the appointed
place, and were closely watched by
the signal officer, Lieut. Adams,from
the signal station on the hill over
looking oar camp. • About half an
hour after the party had arrived, .a
.cry from the signal station was heard,
saying that the Indians had attacked
the Peace Commission, and that an
engAgement had commenced between
the Indians and Col. Mason.• In a
moment the troops were under arms
and deployed as skirmishers, under
command of Col. Green, and orders
given to forward Jortiile quick.
Very shortly after Mr. Dyer re
turned and told us that the Indians
had attacked them, and That he
thought ho was UK! only ono who
had escaped, bat in a few moments
after Riddle and-his squaw were seen
within thopicket From him
we gather the following account, of
how the massacre'commenced :
=NE
LA.TEB--TIIE PABTICIILLBS,
RIDDLES ACCOUNT OF TIIE MASSACRE.
r Mr. 'Meacham made . a short speech
to the Indians, followcfl by ;,General
Canby, and then Dr. Thomas. Then
Capt. Jack made a speech asking for
Hot Creek and Cottonwood, the
places_ now occupied by Fairchild
and Dorris for a reservation. - Mr.
Meacham told Capt. Jack that it was
not possible to give him what he
asked. Schonchin told Mr. Meacham
to say no more ; the ho (Meacham)
had said enough updn that subject ;
and while Schonchin was 'speaking
Capt. 'Lick got up and =balked . be
hind the others, turned back and ex
claimed, " all- ready !" He then
drew his pistol and snapped a cart
ridge at Gen. Canby. He cocked his
pistol again and fired. Gen. Canby
fell dead, shot under the eye. Schou
chin then shot Meacham in the
shoulder and head, but ho is still
alive. Boston Charley and another
Indian shot and killed Dr. Thomas.
Hooker:Jim chased Dyer for some
'distance, but Dyer turned upon him
with pistol in hand and Jim ran.
An Indian knocked the squaw of
Riddle off her horse and took it, but
Capt. Jack made him return it, and
then another Indian chased Riddle
and shot at him. - - - Some allowances
may be made for the truth of this
last- statement.
The troops are now about a mile
in the Lttva Beds, lying on their
arms under rthe cover of darkness.
There are here about six hundred
troops, which can be brought into
active service, and it is believed that
they will end the Modoc war. ,Mr.
Meacham is not expected to survive.
THE TROOPSPRIZAIIING TO MAECII
AGAINST THE SAVAGES.
H. C. Tickor, who brought the of:
ficial dispatches, left headquarters at
4r. al. yesterday. He says that or.
ders had just been issued for an ad
vance along the whole line at 5 A. m.
to-day. The plan was to advance
slowly, taking everything as they
went, having water and provisions
along with them. In this case it may
be two days betors the trouble is
ended.

THE NEWS COMMUNICATED TO TILE PILESI
DMIT AND OEN. SIIEIIIIAN.
This information was communi
cated to the President at a late hour
last night by Adjutant Gen. Town
send, and Gen. Sherman was also
apprised at a late hour, of the occur
rence. The feeling of the President
and the General at the sudden an
nouncement were of - the moat intense
sorrow and indignation, and there
was not an instant's hesitancy in the
declaration that the litodocs shall be
made to suffer to the severest extent
for their crimes.
It is now evident that the act was
long premedited, and this fact adds
to the deep sense of wrath that the
massacre had aroused. The Presi
dent has unreservedly expressed his
sanction that the severest measures
are now necessary to properly punish
the Modoes,`and his views in this
respect have been fully stated to the
auth - orites acting under the War
Department. Gen. Sherman has also
telegraphed to Gen. Schofied in
struction to move the entire force
upon the Indians.
THE ANXIETY IN REGARD TO THE NEWS.
Many personal friends and old as
societes of the distinguished deceased
called at the War Department today
though the offices were not open to
the public, for official - confirmation
and for the particulars of the painful
story. The officers of the army on
duty here, including those holding
official positions on General Sher
man's staff, were appealed to, both at
their homes and in the street, by anx
ious friends of the Modoc victims, to
know if there' could be the slightest
hope that the tale of savage treach
ery was less terrible than has been
recounted.
SWEPT PUNISHMENT TO 135 METED OUT THE
MODOCS. •
Gen. Sherman hits been in conference
with the President to-night upon the
questions arising or likely to arise
from this change in the scenes of the
Modoc war, but as to the policy to be
pursued, it can be nothing less than
that which has already been indicat
ed in this dispatch namely, that of
complete and enduring punishment
by the troops of this government of
the heartless race, which has proven
how thoroughly harsh treatment 'is
now deserved by them.
