Show GENERAL. ludlmi .Haltera. Washington, 3U. The report of the Commissioner of Indian affairs is a comparatively short document. The Commissioner says our relations with the various tribes have been on the whole as favorable as could be expected. expect-ed. .No great icgress has been mace in taming and conciliatme the wild and war-like Apaches of Arizona; their de.-ire fur rapine and blood mxujs unquenchable. U is claimed by persons per-sons who, doub-ie, are connizarit ui the fact, that the Koman Catholic clergy arc the only eU-s 0f men they wi.l not molest, aud to whose counsel"-alone counsel"-alone they w;,l listen.

Reports ' sh'.'w that durLpi: the present year, the conduct cf the Indiass has been more indolent than ever. They depredate upon the property of citizens around them, whenever it phases their fancy: and the citizens have no remedy except ex-cept retaliation or s recourse to law: which is seldom undertaken, tor fear of greater outrages by the Indians which might fellow in the one case, or the tardy and uncertain issue in the other. Should the Southern Paeine raiiroad ever oe constructed, it won d almost of necessity pass through the Pitra and Maricopa reservation, in which event the condition ef these Indians In-dians wii! be made much worse than at present.

New York, 3u. The following is just received : The steamer Kohert l.ofe sailed from Hearts Content, on Saturday last, to repair the Atlantic cable of lS'ii.v, which was injured about .j-cti.eaniil.s Vvn, t Iiat-J. 1110 Y"e have ju-t received it-formation that the cab'e of ISSo has alsj ceased to work, and that the fault is about the same distance from Hearts Content. It is, therefore, probable that the steamer has grappled the wrong cable. As she is now on the spot it is hoped that both cables will soon be repaired. Althouah the French cable is able to tran-mit westward with about its usual facility, it is, from some unknown cause, unable to trans mit eastward, except with great difficulty diffi-culty and very slowly.

The public will be informed at the earliest ear-liest moment that messages can be received re-ceived for Kurope. (Signed) Cyrus W. Field. Xew York, Nov. 3o. |
