CAPTURE OF AMERICANS BY THE ApAcHEs

We have received, by the way of Vera Cruz, Ell Faro
published in the city of chihuahua, the goth November
inclusive This is not very date certainly but
OF these papers contains of unfortunate
conntymen who fell into the hands of the Apaches Janos
near Canton Gsena in October last which will prove of
some melancholy saaction since appears that all have
not Feshed. The last information that reached US from
Chihuahua announced that the savages, amounting to up
wards Of two hundred. under preence of friendly feeling
had been ncauiousy allowed near the party Of
hrtyoEe Americans. then in the vicinity of Janos when
suddenly they sprang upon and captured them ALL After
wards the Apsches ntated the au,ksries Of Canton
Galena that they would be willing exchange the Amcr-
oan prisons. The Governor of chihuahua forthwith ans-
mted orders all along the route, from the capital Jano
10 collect the Apache prs0Be and TO give them up, and
any amount Of other that might DE required
secure the lives and liberty of the Americans FL Faro of
escape Of whom eight had reached the mines Of Canton
Gaena and two the fort Of Janos Six Of our countrymen
had been asceraned, Dead and the fate Of the re-
manning hfeen unknown. From this news we infes
that there must have been fight between the Apaches and
Inc Amecan even after the latter had been disarmcd and
made prisoners 1t probable that an effort was made by
them TO escape, when the six before mentioned persisted by
the rifles tomahawks of the Apaches fifteen were recan
ured, and the other ten managed to get away in safety We
sorry that these papers do give us any particulars
ave to the composition Of this party Of Americans How
rather loss conjecture whether thew were
emigrants California, members of guerrilla band in
the service of Chihuahua Most probably the former since
