Rio ABAJO, New-MeYico, Oct 10, 1855.
Since my last from Santa Fe, but little has trans
PRED in Indian expeditions. The elk months vol
ubteers under Col ST. Vrain have been disbsrded
with high compliments from the Commander Of
this Department for their untiring zeal, steady
service in the saddle and on Indian trails, and
unwsyeripg submission to privations and fatigue.
In addition 10 the Indian treaties of peace con-
cluded with the Mezcalero and Mimbres Aoaches
referred to in my former satisfactory
treaties have been procured with one branch
of the Utah tribe those living in the direction
of About and with the Jicarillss. Orders have
been siven to restore all Indian captves, wherever
they may be, in the Territory and thus to seal the
bond of smity and good will. A treaty Of limits
has also been concluded with the Narvsjo tribe,
which, il has been surmised, may not DO as well
kept ~ the Mexicans a. BY the Indians.
Some persons have Wanted the extraordinary
grazing character of this Territory, leading one TO
suppose that to, at least not far from, the
Mexican settlements was to be found an album
dance Of erase for cattle and sheep. And yet it is
notorious that during the past Sumner the Mexi-
can herders have had their ocks grazing 100 miles
beyond the valley OF the Rio Grande toward the
country of the Navsjos, and allowed them to run
on lands In actual cultivation by that tribe.
1t Is estimated there were 500 OF 1000 war
riors on the treaty ground ut Laguna Negra,
ten miles beyond Fort Defiance; and, as many of
the principal chiefs and men we're known to have
not been present, It 10 believed that heretofore
their numbers have been underestimated and row,
by persons competent to Judge, they are set down
at fully 10000 in all Until recently they have
not been supposed TO number beyond 5000 to
5000.
