It is supposed that the whole party has been killed by the Indians. Mr. Anderson, a butcher in Weaver ville, was killed by the Indians on the 16th inst. Mr. Anderson was driving sift tattle, about five miles from Weaverville, and had two dogs with him. The cattle-and dogs were all taken by tbe 'Indians. The body of the deceased was found on Monday last, and had been pierced by nine arrows. His throat was also cut. A man, with whose name we are unfurnished, was wounded in the arm on Monday last, by the Indians, near the upper ferry ot Trinity River. On Wednesday a Spaniard was killed by the" Indians, between Vary's Ranch and Trinity iferry. James Faulds, who was wounded last week about forty miles from this place, while on his way to Yreka, as stated in our last issue, has since died. In con sequence of these outrages, tbe citizens of Trin ity are forming themselves into companies for the purpose of giving the Indians of that section such chastisement as they merit. Two companies, we understand, have already been organised." — Alta California, May 1. The Great Passage of the Clipper Ship "Challenge." — This magnificent ship, com manded by Capt.- John Land, arrived in our harbour from China early yesterday morning, after the extraordinarily short passage of thirty three days I She sailed from Hongkong on the 19ih March, and left tbe coast of Japan on the sth of April, having thus made tbe run from the latter country -in seventeen days. The greatest distance run by log in twenty four hours was 360 knots; and the greatest progress .made in a direct line, 335 knots. The highest speed at tained was 16 knots per hour. The average log of the whole passage was 10 knots; and the average on a straight line, 9 knots per hour. Whilst in the China sea she made the distance between two islands* which were forty- two miles apart, in two hours and a quarter. She is in ballast, and brings 553 Chinese emigrants, all in good health ; not a death has occurred on the passage. In every point of view this is one of tbe most wonderful and successful passages on record; and we congratulate Captain Land upon the additional fame which his seamanship will confer upon tbe American commercial marine.
