Mayor Woo\ .'s in "d t, Structions to the Police relative to their du les appear to give pretty general satisfaCiion. The temperance folks talk of appealing to the laws, and the liquor people assert that, to'be just what they also intend to do, while the Mayor is anxious for a legal decision in the premises. The Carson League are busy or ganizing'their forces -for complaining against the dealers, while the latter make no secret - of their intention to prosecute the League, on the ground of - conspiracy.

The Indians are also gathering in large bodies, preparatory, as it is supposed. to a bold and determined as sault, in the mean time being actively engaged in robbing emigrant trains, murdering the em igrants, &C. A correspondent of the New York Tribune, - writing from Council Bluffs, (lowa,) June 9, gives an account of a reported massacre of an emigrant party of men, supposed to . _ be Mor mons, and the capture of their women and children, besides two colored women. His ac count is as follows : "N o white men were seen among them, and the inference is, and so the friendly Sioux re ports, that the hostile bands had attacked the emigrant trains, which left here about five weeks ago, and have killed the men and captor e►! the women and children. This conclusion is also strengthened by the fact that there were two colareil_wornen accompariying the 'trains when they passed _through here on their way westward. The Sioux chief who brought this report is well known in this vicinity, and is bel;eved to he trustworthy. The Indians seem to be fully aware of the hostile expedition on its way into their country, and have taken this opportunity . to set the power of the, general government at defiance. If the latter is deter mined to have a fight with them, the sooner it gets its troops on the ground thi! better.

WARD II FFAILL.—We learn from a gentleman who was an eye-witness, the following particulars of a most horrible And' tragical affair that occurred at Pontiac, Miss., on Monday last. It appears that Mr. Brown, the principal of the male academy at Pontiac. had punished one of his pupils about a week since. A brother of the boy that was whipped, by the name of Wray, made threats against Mr. Brown for- the afore Said punishment, to which hut little attention was paid.. On Mon day, young Wray, a youth of some seventeen or eighteen years old, took a position where Mr. Brown would pass on his way home from school, and waited until he came 4liang, when Wray attacked hint. .The two clinched, Brown only acting in self defence, and these who saw it thought it only to be a seullte between than, until they saw Brown run a few yards. his hands npou his abdomen, and fill down lifeless. While 'they wet e clinched, 1V ray had inflicted two wounds upon Mr. Brown with a large bowie knife, which killed hint almost. instantly' . The young matt was arresied at once. Mr. Brown was a man much reSp"Cled, and leaves a young. wid ow, to whom he had been married but a few Months, to mourn his early and untimely end. This is one of the mpst horrible, cold-blooded murders we have noticed for sonse. time, and is a deeper outrage than the Matt. Ward case.— Nadtville Whig, June 18. .
