I reached the harbor on the 1st of August, and found Her Majesty's Steam-Corvette " TRIBUNE" at anchor, and soon after the "SATELLITE" and "PLUMPER" ar- rived with a strong force of British Marines and Sappers and Miners, on board, from Fraser river. I communicated my in- structions to Captain PICKETT, and awaited coming events. The British Officers questioned me closely, about the news by the mail and of Solferino, and they gradually quieted down, so that I felt at liberty to scout for Norther...n Indians. As soon as General HARNEY heard of the British preparations, he sent all his available force on the Columbia river over, and directed Lieut. Col. CASEY to take them, and his command atFort Steila- coom, to the support of Captain PICKETT. I was soon after or- dered ashore to assist in fortifying the Island, but the arrival of GENERAL SCOTT broke up the Camp, without completing the de- fences. + IMPORTANCE OF A STEAMER, FOR U. S. TROOPS, ON THE SOUND. While examining the shores of the Islands, in the Archipel- ago, I received a call from the Citizens of Whatcom, by an Ex- press-boat, stating that a party of Nooksahk Indians, painted and armed, taking advantage of the withdrawal of the Troops from Fort Bellingham (one mile off), had entered the town and threatened the lives of Citizens, and were resolved upon releas- ing an Indian Chief held in prison, and actually shot one man, when the Citizens resisted it, by returning their fire and killing four or more Indians.
