The press, East and West, comes laden with denunciations of the Camp Grant massacre. Such things' must be, we suppose, that is, the massacres and the denunciation of them.

And ou the other hand, as an American community rids itself of the savage incumbrances of the soil, driving them another stage backward, it appears to forget its own terrible experience, and the summary vena geance it took from time to time;- is the last corner into which the dregs of the Indian tribes have been driven, step bv step, for 250 years, and these dregs have not only their own wroDgs, real' or fancied, to redress, hut those of their, forefathers back to the laudiLg at Plymouth Rock aud JamesSo the settlers in Arizia have town. all the wrongs inflicted on the red men in two or three centuries to expiate. Let us put ourselves-itheir place. Even now they are building a monument to' Capt. Mason in Connecticut. What did He do to deserve' it ? Let us tell the story briefly, premising that we condense it from a history of that State, written 200 years after Mason's time. u Scarcely had the first log cabin been built by the pioneers in thfe valley of the Connecticut, (1634) says our historian, when the Sassacus, (a sachem) forcasting the growth and fruitfulness of the resources iucident to the English race, began to devise means for their destruction. His swift runners represented the white men as rapidly advancing, driving the Indians as the fire drives the deer when it sweeps over their hunting grounds that one or the other of these races must give place. He advocated a war of extermination. Pretty soon Sassacus had roused his hereditary enemies, the Narragansetts, and had also brought the Dutch of Manhattan about his ears. So he made proposals to the Governor of Massachusetts for a treaty. The Governor charged him with the murder of Various persons, aud insisted that the murderers should be given up. Sassacus urged that his nation was not responsible for these murders, having neither planned nor sanctioned them, but that it was the work of one of the inferior chiefs who had acted without authority, or in defiance of it. The Governor of Massachusetts made a treaty with Sassacus, which the latter broke in less than a year. Endicott was injudiciously sent by the Governor of Massachusetts to chastise Sassacus. His expedition might be likened to hundreds since, it succeeded only in inspiring the savages with contempt. They grew. bolder. They would put on the clothes of Englishmen whom they had roasted alive, and present themselves in little bands on the lawn in front of tlie fort, (Say brook, at the mouth of the Connecticut) where they would enact over again the horrible' drama, kneeling down and praying with the fervent voice and agonized .gestures of the sufferers, and uttering cries and lamentations indicative of the most unspeakable anguish. One day three or four of them came down out of the woods for a parley. Gardner, the commandant, and Stanton, the interpreter went out a little way under protection of the cannon of the fort. u Who are you ? asked the babes of the woods. Stanton replied in their owu language, That is the Leftenant, my name is Stanton. It is faLe, we saw the Leftenant the other day, shot full of arrows. But Gardner spoke to them and they saw they had mistook. They then asked, Will you fight with the Nihanticks? (trying to play it that they were Nihanticks.) - .We do not know one Indian from another, and will trade with none of them. , Have yoiLhad fighting enough ? lk We do not know that yet. Is it your custom to kill women and . children ? That you shall see hereafter. A long panse ensued when one of the Indians said with a haughty air: We are Peqoots ; wc have killed Englishmen and ean , kill them as Ari-aon- n . Pe-qu- high-spirite- d ot then a natty little republic of 300 souls, all told. ( The Legislature met and the first written record of their doings reads : It is ordered that there shall be an offensive war agaiust the Pequots, aud there shall be 90 men levied out of the three plantations of Hartford, Wethersfield and Windsor. Hi a week thereafter the little army sailed down the river from Hartford, under command of John Mason, 160 men, 90 English, and 70 Mohegans, under Uncas. Only the Mohegans marched instead of sailing, and on the way attacked the enemy and took seven scalps. On the march Uncas captured a spy belonging to Sassacus. Him he tore limb from limb, roasted and ate, clean. Ma-- , son surprised one of the chief villages of the Pequots, containing about 500 people and 70 wigwams, fired the latter, and of the people seven were taken captive and seven only escaped. t He was gone from Hartford but three weeks. y For this is Mason being canou-izeWas to-da- The sequel d. short. The Pcqnots lost confidence in Sassacus, applied the torch themselves to their other chief vilMassachulage,. and fled1 westward. setts now entered the lists. Finding 80 Pequots in a swamp they took them all captives, killed the men and sold the women and children to West Indiamcn for slaves. Sassacus fled to the Mohawks, who cut his head off and sent the scalp to Connecticut. It will be seen by this sketch that the Indians were the same in 1634 as in 1871, and so were the whites, and so it will be to the eud. The iron necessity which has ordered it thus may chafe us, but we cannot escape it. In the words of Sassacus, i one or the other of these Eastern and races must give place. is- - Western communities not infested by them should remember, in condemning the settlers ia Arizona, that they did precisely the same, or worse things, in the heat of their own struggle to be rid of the troublesome vermin.

Pitkins writes to the Salt Lake Nines from Millville, in Cache Valley, that the people there put in more wheat last fall and more grain this spring than ever before ; that two weeks ago it was looking superb, but the grasshoppers have hatched out in myriads, and in spite of all the people could do to get the better of them, they are now devouring the grain at a rate that will save harvesting if it continues long. o A Summit County correspondent of the same paper says the frost of May 30, or thereabouts, was the severest they had had for eight years, even nipping the wheat somewhat, though uot enough to seriously damage it. The Ttibune tells how Governor Woods and Marshal Patrick, having occasion to visit the Territorial Penitentiary, found the Warden and most of the convicts out fishing, prospecting, visiting their friends, etc. The Penitentiary is newly as secure as a country bam, and just about as clean. Also, how a man at Tintic, named J. K. Smith, crazed by drink, fired a shot gun at random into a house, severely wounding Dr. Urquhart in the legs. The Tribune says that Mr. Richards has gone to Chicago to bring his iron works bodily to Salt Lake, and means to have them there and in operation within six weeks.
