VP. THE MEXICAN INDEMNITY- i
The following statement relative to the pay
ment of the Mexican indemnity, from a Corres
pondent of the New! York Courier, is , probably,
"The troublesome question of the drafts oa the
v Meailla indemnity fund has been settled as to one-
umik iu uiuuiifc uhd unu urciu, nu kilo niouej
was paid on Thursday. Tbo drafts which bare
been paid were four in number, two of lhem be-
In held by P. A. Hargous & Company, and
mounting to 750,000 , and two by Messrs. As
p!nwalT& Co. for j 8325.000 each. The whole
amonnt paid, therefore, was Sl.400,000, leaving
outstanding' SI 550,000, which is represented to
bo covered by drafts In the hands of Aspinwall
& Co. I learn that the money was paid with the
consent of Gen." Almonte,' and upon the written
order of the President and Secretary Guthrie.
The claim thus f artially allowed has been pend
ing since July last, and was at first rejected or
'suspended by the State Department, upon the
- ground that no proof was presented that the mon
ey had been advanced to tha Mexican Govern
ment; Ja other words, that no evidence of consid
etatlon was furnished. Tha matter remained sus
pended until the accession of Alvarez, who in
structed General Almonte to notifr this Govern
ment that the transaction involving the drafts
was nnder Investigation, and requesting that pay
ment should be declined nntil the examination
should be concluded. - A few days since tbe Mex
ican Minister withdrew bis objection as .to tbe
Hi t four of the drafts, and the money was paid
as. above described. The balance of it will be
held subject to the decision of tha Mexican Gov
ernment dt facto, provided it does not decide
agaiost the draft-holders." pPPp-PptP-'

vices were to the 20thof December.
The following abstract of a volunteer's journal
is copied from the 8 talesman :
;9th Indians made their appearance in tbe
morning on the battle 'ground, but not. half so
thick as the day before. Kept a continuous firing
all day, but duing little execution, as tbe boys
were getting pretty good - at dodging.. Wasco
boys took the hill and after two hours' sharp
shooting, routed tbe Indians out of their trench
es, &c, that tbey had dug, leaving guns, knives
and blankets. At the tame time, the Indians
were seen driving off their stock up tbe river.
, 10th, Monday morning. A fbw Indians presen
ted themselves oa the hill; filled up some of our
trenches and dug new ones of their own. Wasco
boys on the bill and Linn boys along the brush;
fought on the bill for an hour or two, when the
Indians began to retreat. - Maj. Chinn ordered a
charge, when Linn and Wasco pitched in and ran
tbe devils past their upper camp three . Indians
killed. As we were coming back they fired a few
times at us, but no one was hurt during the day
on oar side. At dnsk. tbe enemy had all disap
peared.;.-
1 11th, 9 o'clock. Three hundred and fifty men
auder Col. Kelly, mounted on horseback and pur
sued tbe enemy. Followed about forty mi les.
found considerable stock, but not one Indian. All
left in the direction of 8nake river. From tbe
appearances in the camp, eight or ten miles above
Whitman' station, there must have been fifteen
hundred or tweet housand Indians. '.. There were
one hundred and forty lodges; some were twenty-
five and thirty, feet long, and others o .ly large
enough to contain six persons. " "
13th, 5 P. M. Col. Kelly and company return
ed; bronght with them thirty or forty Indian hor
ses; saw quite a number of cattle and horses as
they were passing up the valley, but on account
of the fog could not find them as they returned;
found a valuable cache deposited by a settler.
Houses nearly all burned, grain, &C, destroyed
by the Indians. . "

THE FROZENPEACn TREES. .
M. B. Batebani, in a letter to The Ohio Farmer,
confirms statements from other sources, that
many - of the peach trees are frozen to death.
Tbe New York Tribune a'so ssys : : ,
- "We think that, nearly all that wrre planted
last year nearly all that stand io und rained, rich
ground that ia naturally moist, and all tht made
a good deal of new wood last year will be found
seriously injured, i Wu reiterate oar advice to use
the pruuing koife freely.'- That can do no barm
and may save your trees. - Do not cat them down
until you are sure tbey are dead,, and then cot
away the body close to tbe groond and cover tbe
stomp with a sod, and wait to see if.ihe root will
send up eprots. If your trees are dead, do not be
discouraged. 'bat "plant more, , ,Ws may not have
och another winter as this in thU century. In
Ob'.o it is generally conceded that ""the hud of
peaches, cherries, apricots, soma early pears, and
some of the most , tender apple, are kilted or
badly Injured upon the rjay Janda." ;'h x
Tbe Prairie Farmer says: ; ' -
"W have given up all hopes of a frnit crop ex
cept apple. Tbe thermometer baa' been 22 de
grees below eere ia Chicago and 23 degees in lb
vicinity. The presnmptloo , is that peach trees.
Ac., and all rather tender shrubs are dead down
to tbe snow-line And we . fear that half of the
badly-bandied peddlers' ' treei, bronght into the
country last fall will be found in tbe same catego
ry, whether planted out or heeled in. The time
ft pruning is when the: first warm weather of,
early spring renders it necessary to eat back, be
fore the ssp begins to circulate; lien do so a Tit
tle below tbe evident froot-marked or dead-line.
But evva if tbe peach traes are of good lorta.
