We hear of a wholesale slaughter of Indians in Northern California. A telegram, dated Yreka, 6th Sept., says, George H. Dobbins is herewith informed, that on the 13th inst., the Pitt River Rangers attacked a Rancheria of Beaver Creek Indians, numbering two hundred, seventy of whom were killed! Three of the Rangers were wounded.
