The APAcBES AND OTHER New MEXICAN
lNDIANS-THE VALLEY OF THE GILA, &c
The Indian bureau has received dispatches from
its superintendency in New Mexico, which we
regret our inability to spread before the Stars
readers an ertsnso They embrace paper
from Agent Steck, concerning the present status
Of the Apaches and other New Mexican In
dians. who, in a council with him, earnestly sue
for peace; the Apaches denying the allegation
that they are responsible for the depredations
laid at their door.
In his last annual report he took occasion to
express doubts as to the truth Of much of that
allegation, and he is now more than ever con-
frmed in the belief of its falsity, in part. How

from Col. Bonneville, the result of the observa

four months tour in and around the valley Of
the ella, which he represents as being the most
fruitful and beautiful territory he ever saw
and he has probably seen and carefully observed
more of the characteristics Of the unsettled por-

This beautiful territory, or at least that por-

river, was acquired by the United States
through the Gadsden purchase, the rest by the
treaty of Guadalupe IIidalgo: and either Sec

large, more than was paid in actual money for
both. 1t is emphatically the region most likely

The New YORK ELEcrIoy.-Is strikes us
ttat the prospect for Republican party tr-

grees and beautifully less" if but from the
fact that the TriBUnc and its newspaper ten

horror Of discussing either of the questions

of the New York State questions upon which
their Democratic opponents are stalking the

The New York Hrrakd in it's own amusing
