late commander of the department of arizona on the subject of the indian difficulties the general bas has been removed because his dealings with tha jhb indians have nt not been sufficiently vigorous to suit salt the wishes of certain interested parties among other things to his bis not lot giving encouragement to the R republican publican 1 party in the elections there ge he would not interfere himself in the party squabbles neither would he be suffer his officers to do so one reason of his being sent to arizona was to cut down the expenses of the department I 1 and he had lidd endeavored to do so this aroused a great outcry against him many of the traders sell arms and ammunition to the very apaches they ax ex claim against and ind be says sayrs they will do more for a dollar and less for patriotism and self defence than any people in the union gath reports that the general told him that there are not 1000 in the territory and api fp elver every white mans defence there are he cut cuc down aown the ibe expenses of his department from three millions to a little over a million and he be refused to ask the general commanding for more troops the history of the affairs in that territory as he reported them to gath gath is worth resdin reading gr said he aw hi had a ld the thra people Kept 0 r dl n a f eliar ellar arity not to say faith with the apaches the troops already in arizona would have beenu beeri ample ampie but they wanted war more troops government expenditures and a political general unable to find personal cause to quarrel with me mg they got tip a scheme to have the territorial bonds endorsed by the united states andio conciliate the democrats of ari arl oong ioni Sylvest sylvester br mowry once delegate to Con congress giess was united with mccormick ardd arid a i newspaper campaign was begun all over the country these men writing the articles and mailing them everywhere now I 1 should b be 3 sorry to apologize tor for the apaches and their barbarisms barbari sms but I 1 have been in arizona since 1816 1846 18 16 as much as any man in the army and I 1 undertake to say that not mor more ethan than one in three of these apache outrages were really beally committed and one in two remaining were exaggerated the PIn pinal final klind and the tinto apaches are merciless indians but who can excuse ex the camp grant grand mag mai massacre sacre where unarmed apaches were massacred b by an expedition which marched sixty miles to take advantage of the absence af the soldiery defending them an lexi expedition tion organized and led by leading people in the town of tucson there is right here in los angeles a man i who treacherously murdered a Hual Hua apis lapis apache alche chief but bilt a snort time ago and alid who boasts of it the huala Husla Hua lapis pid were quietly camping and this chief volunteered togo to go out and trail trall for the whites after somei some miki marauders auders he ana and two white men went together and after a while the white men returned saying that there was one apache the less in the world ivorid immediately the Hua huels lapis broke camp and vanished now no there is some white person to summer suffer for that indian the great spirit will beanery be angry till he is avenged that victim may be me or it may be you the change in the condition of the apaches since he first knew them is well described in the following language when I 1 first saw the apache apaches in 1846 4 11 they were splendidly mounted every warrior roda rods a stil stallion lioA and every squaw a mare they were dressed in buckskins their lances were bright aud and their trappings superb seven hundred of them rode together they were the terror of mexico and rode far into that republic and they treated the americans with chivalry mr winston here knows how many bands of california emigrants rode through arizona unharmed the arizona apache is now a starving hyena eating squirrels rats owls anything to keep life and vengeance geande alive THERE trene have been many reports of robberies published which have been effected by the agency of chloroform and other similar means at a recent meeting held at the college of physicians aud and surgeons in new york doctor stephen rogers read an interesting paper upon this subject the object of this I 1 raper gaper paper was to prove that chloroform could edul not be used effectively against the desire of the person upon whom its use usa was intended unless sufficient force were employed to enair entirely ely control the victim he asserted that there was not a 11 single well weli authenticated cage case in which it had clearly been shown that it had bad been successfully used in aid of crime it was clear that if taken at all it must have been taken willingly and as an excuse and cover personal for participation in the crime alleged to have been committed in other eases cases chloroform was charged with having been an aid in the commission of crime by gentlemen who when robbed were really drunk and preferred charging their mishap to chloroform to acknowledging whisky and wine chloroform cannot be given even to a sleeping infant without causing it to awake and in no case carrid be given without sufficient time elapsing to enable the intended victim to give an alarm before becoming unconscious A professional robber would use a bludgeon pistol or knife before thinking of using chloroform as the latter would awaken his hig victim and add to to the danger of arousing some person within hearing A TERRIBLE horse

inclination to die rather than endure such a life as he has lived for the last two years besides the above named persons the star says saya that five other young men indle indicted ted led and incarcerated in the tombs for murder were let out on ball on the lith dinst such a showing as the preceding is a horrible commentary on the present state of manners and morals in the east for it furnishes a social and moral barometer of all the large centres bentres of population there as well as of new now york y ork everyone every one of the above crimes was committed while the parties were under the dominion of liquor and most of them in drinking saloons during buring the past week strenuous efforts have been made here oste ostensibly n sibly to save the souls of sinners in U utah tab tah the operators or spiritual manibu manipulators acors being gentlemen who had undertaken a aj j urney turney of thousands of miles for this purpose while the people will no doubt properly appreciate the magnitude of such labors ione one would really think that in fields so white with sinners as they must be where murder and drunkenness are as common as the above recital shows them to be in the east there would be all the scope necessary or desirable for the soul saving proclivities of all the peripatetic gospel vending parsons and sham religious philanthropists in the nation there too their labors could be exercised at home which would be far more convenient than taking a long journey lourney to peaceful easeful vales where crime of any kind is scarcely ever heard of except it be committed by those who migrate hither from the remote cen ires tres of civilization commerce religion aci ani ala acl enlightenment perhaps however the business of saving bouls souls if carried on at homeard home and on the quiet may not be considered as meritorious by its professors as when attended to with a great noise and trumpeted forth by the press but a sinner ginner converted or a soul saved in the east is quite as important in the eye of the divine master blaster as the same thing in the west and the reward is as sure it is high time this neglecting the heathen at home kr for th the sa bake sake k a of the same class abroad so 86 fashionable in the religious world was done away with and if their salvation be the real object e how much greater the consistency a and nd the probabilities of success to confine labors having this end in view exclusively to fields plentiful in every section of the country but utah in which sinners are so numerous and hardened that murder robbery licentiousness violence and ana crime of of every description are thought no more of and excite no more attention than the labors of hireling priests do among the hundred thousand latter day saints in utah we very respectfully recommend our christian brethren to ponder these things well in their minds A versailles versal ILES lles correspondent of the london times describes the entry of
