STEAMBOAT LAUNCHED -- The new steamer built by C.M. SMALL for Fickett & Co., was launched in the waters of Mormon slough at the foot of Centre street, last Saturday evening. The launch took place shortly after 7 o'clock, or just about high tide. She was placed on the ways with her
side to the slough and slid off easily, one end striking the water a little sooner than the other.
She was named Hattie FICKETT, in compliment to the only daughter of Dr. S.H. FICKETT of this city, a young lady 15 years of age. Dr. FICKETT is the chief spirit in the enterprise, and we understand, principal owner of
the new steamer, which has been built expressly for the San Joaquin river trade. The machinery will be placed on board and put in running order as soon as possible. A portion of the machinery is now on the bank of the
slough.

MINING SUPERINTENDENT FOUND DEAD --
A dispatch from Sonora, Tuolumne county, states that George F. WRIGHT, Superintendent of the Excelsior mine, at Sugar Pine, was found dead yesterday morning in his bed at the mine. He probably died in an epileptic fit.
Deceased had been affected with epilepsy for many years, but not in such a degree as to occasion any fear among his friend of immediate fatal results. He was a man of energy, genial in disposition and highly respected by all who knew him. He had long been connected with the Excelsior mine, and was fortunate in mining enterprises, having at one time accumulated quite a fortune. Several years ago he took a trip East and made an extended tour, taking along with him and paying the expenses of a traveling companion.
This was done as a measure of safety, on account of his being subject to the falling sickness, which, it is surmised, suddenly terminated his life.
Years ago Mr. WRIGHT was a mining partner of 2 gentlemen who now reside in this county, and who will be pained to learn of his sudden death.
<Saturday, 21 Dec 1872>
REMAINS of a WOMAN SENT EAST --
The body of Miss Lucy DODGE, who died at the residence of her brother, J.H. DODGE, near Waterloo in this county, several days ago, was sent East on the noon train yesterday. Mr. BOND, undertaker, placed the remains in a
metallic casket and exhausted the air from the same. The coffin was then committed to the charge of Wells, Fargo & Co., who will convey it to Essex Junction, Vermont, and there deliver the body to relatives of the deceased.
Death resulted from a stroke of paralysis. She had not enjoyed her usual good health for about 4 weeks prior to the time of the paralytic stroke which, in a very short time, resulted fatally.
Miss DODGE came to this State 5 or 6 years ago, and from that time until her sudden death had taken charge of and managed the household of her brother, whose children were sadly deprived of a mother's watchful care. Deceased was a lady advanced in years and greatly esteemed for her many
virtues, and her death is deeply lamented by many friends in San Joaquin county.
- --------------------------------------
PERSONAL -- Mr. T.P. MOORE, of the firm of Hammond, Moore & Yardley, left the city early last month on a trip to the home of his parents in New Hampshire, and returned a day or 2 ago. He was called East on account of the illness of his father, and his sister, Mrs. RANDALL, accompanied
him. They reached the old homestead only a few days before their father died. Mrs. RANDALL will not return until Spring.

The Oregon Indian War -- 14 Settlers Murdered -- The Indians Strongly Entrenched --
Yreka, Dec. 10 -- Frank PICARD, who lives on Klamath River, arrived in town this evening. He brings later news from Tule Lake. The following was communicated to him by N.C. RAMBEAU, who left Link river on Monday. He confirms the particulars of the first fight, and says the squaws showed the whites 15 dead Indians. Among them was Black Jim. The Modocs were entrenched upon a ridge between Lost River and Tule Lake, 6 miles from Linkville. Most of the squaws and children with the Modocs have gone to Ben. WRIGHT's cave, on the SW side of the lake, and if the bucks are hard pressed on the ridge they are expected to retreat to the cave. The cave is in the lava country on a high level plain, containing a space of 2 or 3 acres underground, and the opening at the entrance is very small and easily guarded as well as difficult to find. The Indians have laid in supplies to last them a long time and there is plenty of water in the cave. To reach this cave the Indians will be obliged to escape in the night in getting around the lake and past Bloody Point. No persons on this coast know the locality of that cave except PICARD and RAMBEAU's father, and they have not been there since 1866.
The young man states that 14 settlers have been killed in all, and no more.
Henry MILLER was with BROTHERTON and son when the latter were killed and it is believed that MILLER was tortured to death by the Indians, as the harness of his team was found, but no traces of his body. We have also been
told by others that the Indians were always bitter toward MILLER. The young man RAMBEAU also says the Modocs were about giving up their arms to the soldiers at Tule Lake on demand of Major JACKSON when Scar-faced Charley raised his gun, saying he was going to kill an officer, and did make
the effort, thus causing a general fight, the Indians retaining their arms and retreating as the soldiers fired on them. At least 50 shots were fired at Charley without effect.
The force of soldiers and volunteers in the field, including 2 companies from Vancouver, amount to over 400 men, while it is said there are not over 45 or 50 fighting Indian warriors in the field. It is claimed that there
were but 75 Modocs at the start, 15 of whom were killed and 15 are at FAIRCHILD's Camp, the latter not having been in the difficulty. There are some 10 or 15 Pit River Indians in the vicinity of the place where the Modocs now are, who may have joined, as they were averse to going on
the reservation. It has also been reported that there were a number of Piutes at Clear Lake who were determined not to go on the reservation, that might also join, but young RAMBEAU says there are no Indians fighting at present
but Captain Jack's band of Modocs. The troops will undoubtedly attack the Indian fort on the ridge and have a hard fight, as the Indians hold a commanding position to fight at great odds, and under cover of night can
escape through their superior knowledge of the country, which is a broken and rough volcanic-like lava section.
Nothing has yet been heard from FAIRCHILD and party who started Sunday to find Captain Jack. Much anxiety is felt for them.
