Terrible Affray in Kentucky.

The town of Hawsville Ky, was lately the scene of one of those dreadful street fights, for which the State of Kentucky has an unenvabe notoriety The difficulty occurred chiefly be- tween two men named Lowe and Maxwell their friends assisted, organized-armed them selves met, and commenced fighting in the street. Several persons on each side were killed and wounded
 Lowe was taken prisoner, and carried to jail. While lying there, badly wounded, some of his enemies returned and murdered him. The Louisville Journal says:
 The Grand Jury report that Lowe was proved to have coat of mail on the day before the af fray, but they say nothing as to his having worn it in the fight, Well-known facts can scarcely leave doubt that he did wear it upon that oc- casion Our informant, who was a spectator of the scene, says that at least between seventy-
 five and hundred guns and pistols were fired at Lowe, and that there were thirty-two bullet and buck-shot holes through all parts of his coat, but that not solitary shot entered his body nor drew even drop of blood. Heavily loaded guus were fired at him at distance ot, not more than ten feet, and he was repeatedly knocked down and whirled around by the lead en missiles, yet no wounds were inflicted. The ball which struck his thigh made a very severe bruisc, but no wound

Late and Imnortant From Sonora

The "Voz de Sonora, organ ofthe SO called Lileral Government of Sonora, publishes that in rencounter at the Mimbres, near CaEols in Sonora, Pesqueira defeated one thousand troops of the conservative party under the command of Gen. Inhuansa. Seven peces of artillery and about five hundred prisoners fell into the hands of Pesqueira Gen. retreated with the scattered remnantof his force towards Mazat- Ian, but was pursued by Pesqueira's Cavalry.
 The particulars given by the Voz de Sonora are supposed to be little exaggerated.

A Singular Spectacle.

Not single administration measure passed the late Congress, although some of them were essential to the honor, prosperity, and progress of the country remarkable spirit of oppos- tion seemed to inspire even those whom the President had right to expect would be his strongest supporters upon all administration ef- forts. We look over the list of acts passed for single one of importance, which in any man ner reflects credit upon our government Our great interests have been neglected, our nation alrights allowed to be trampled upon, our flag insulted, without any attempt at redress, and a refusal to allow the President means to enforce national rights and defend American citizens in foreign countries We do not believe there ever was congress which performed less good, or reflected less honor upon itself Wrangling, Reorganization, and senseless speechifying, has characterized the entire session, and the whole country rejoices that tits over.
The weekly Arizonian., 1859-03-31

there were two hundred and eighty eight Pr nals, fit to bear arms, and twenty-five Tonto Apaches, making over three hundred warriors, with about six hundred women, children, and old men. Taking into account the stealing parties absent to Sonora, and those at home, in the Final country proper the tribe undoubt- edly numbers one thousand souls, with at least three hundred and fifty warriors. The Finals are rather inferior in stature, not muscular but very active and wry. Their arms, bows and lances, were of the best sort, all their arrows being tipped with formidable heads of flint They had large supply of animals, horses and mules-some of the latter very fne--with an abundance of saddles and brides, all supplied by their tenants, and taxpayers in Sonora l- They were too c inning to bring in any stock which had been stolen fsom Americans, being we'll aware that if they did so they would be obliged to restore it. Of clothing they wore as little as possible, compatible with savage mo- tons of decency, which are known to be rather primitive; more especially when the poor crea- lures are in the condition of Miss Flora Nc Flimsy, and have nothing to wear" Alto gether, they were dangerous, thievish, wolfsh. looking set, as we ever happened to meet--of the cayote type in all their actions and charac- teristics, az near ss it is possible for savage hu manity to resemble wild beastl
 On the arrival of Doctor Steck, with his wagons, the treaty was made. The Finals agreed not to moest Americans in their per sons or property; and government promised if they kept their obligations, to distribute goods and provisions to them. How long this ar rangement will last, no one can tell The peo- pie of this country, having been 50 often dis appointed, have little confidence in these cheap treaties, especially with such treatherous Indi- ans as the Finals They should never be coax ed into anything The fashion of troops and agents waiting upon band of thieving Indi- ans-travelling more than hundred miles, to persuade them into treaty is eonte1aPtible farcel When troops go into an Indian country, they should go to fight. If Indians want peace, let them come after it.
 l If the Finals keep their agreement, in good faith they should receive a supply of corn and beef, occasionally. They must live, and as government has taken possession of their hunt ing grounds, they have rightto expect some relief Hunger often forces them to steal But, on the contrary, should they again commence plnndering, their country ought at once to be invaded, and they thoroughly and lastingly whipped into good behavior
 Many interesting incidents occurred during the treaty, which we have not space to mention. The Indians sold considerable stock, and some gold, the latter brought from the Gila River Should this treaty be kept, parties will soon go out to explore that almost unknown country around the White Mountains, where there is believed to be rich gold deposits Who knows but such explorations may not produce results that will affect the destiny of the Continent!

IMMIGRANTS CoMING.-From the eastern pa pers and private letters, we learn that General Henningsen, the noted fllibustcr, is expected to start for Arizona early inJune, with one thou- sand ''emigrants probably of the Nicaragua sort-to colonize the San Pedro valley Re- cruiting for this purpose, is now going on at St. Louis, New Orleans and other cities If these "emigrants" are of the sort that carry mimic ri- fes bayonets, and revolvers, such as have been sent out by Gen, Wm Walker, they are not wan ted here. We have little faith in this move- ment
The weekly Arizonian., 1859-03-31

D TIE FINALS AGA1N.-On Sunday, the 27th inst few days after the Indian treaty, party of ten Pinal Indians suddenly appeared at Tomo- cacari Mission and attempted to run off the mules and-horses feeding near at hand The animals were stampeded, but rsn towards the Mission, where they were secured. These ln- dians were either on their way to Sonora or just returning, probably the latter, and could not pass such q fine chance for little sxhibi- ton of the grab game If they commence this early after treaty, what may be expected within three months?
