Return ing from the Fcene of the conflict, and the Modocs' sudden disappearance, he came before the commanding ofh cer's tent and, flinging down an In diau's scalp, claimed that he had torn it from the head of Scar-faceCharley.

The opening of the Pulawski Hotel took place last evening. Although the weather was inclement, yet large assemblage thronged the apartments of the new hotel. Conveyances were provided for those who were iavited. The Oglen brass bund was stationed in front of thehotel, and during the evenuig the guests were enlivened by strains of sweet music. Supper was the fiist item, and gentlemen, accompanied by ladies, took seats at the tables, which were tastefully decorated with fbwers, ordered expressly for the day from California. Viands and luxuries of all kinds, vegetables and fruit, were furnished in abundance. Champagne flowed like water, and during the elegant supper toasts in honor of Mr. J. B.
