From Arizona.

ST.. LOUIS, Nov. 26.-An Arizona cor
respondent of the Republican gives the fol-
lowing information from ArizOuia:
Capt. Porter, of the steamer st. Marys,
on entering Guoymes, finding Col Alden
acting U. S. Consul, in the absence of
Judge Rose, was not recognized and not
permitted to hoist American colors over
the Consulate. He insisted upon the Pre-
feet respecting his authority, meeting with
opposition. He ordered flagstaff to be
erected over the Consul's office, run up the
stars and stripes and informed the Project
that it should not be taken down without
fight and it was left undisturbed.
Gov. Pesqniera arrived four days after,
when Capt. Porter waited on him, but not
understanding Spanish, and Pcsquicra not
speaking English, the interview was very
unsatisfactory.
Porter entered protest in the name of
the government, against the treatment re-
ceivcd by Capt. Stones party, and would
probably be present to aid Capt. Ewell in
adjusting difficulties with Pcsquicra.
The dispatches containing the above in
formation arrived at Fort Buchanan on the
tooth, en- route for Washington.
The Republican also has Santa Fe letters
of the 18th:
The Indians were still committing dep
relations on the mails and cmigrant trains.
Col. Fauntleroy arrived at Santa Fc on
the 2d and assumed command
The department it was expected would
Immediately take measures to chastisc the
Indians to prevent future outragcs.

F=5% BOLD RoBEERY AT THE Seminary
During night before last, some thieves en-
tered the Wheeling Female Seminary, and
succeeded in robbing a number of the
young ladies in the Institution of a con-
siderable amount of money, jcwelry and
clothing. 1t was one of the most daring
robhcries that has occurred in this city for
long time. The thieves, after gaining an
entrance to the building, some time after
one o'clock visited the rooms of several
young ladies.carricd off their trunks
dragged them boldly down into the parlor
turned up the gas-and then proceeded
to break them open and take out the con-
tents. One or two of the young ladies
lost considerable amounts of money, and
valuable jewclry, while Others. were de-
privcd of their choice clothing and inery.
When the thieves left, they locked the
door from the outside, and have since elu-
ded the vigilance of the police, who were
promptly informed of the transaction.
The girls whose rooms were entered were
doubtless dosed with chloroform, as they
felt the effects of that drug very sensibly
yesterday morning. The manner in which
the burglary was committed, shows that it
was perpetrated by no Impractical hands,
hut by thieves of great experience and
Judgment in such matters.
