ANANCIENT GARMENT.-A lady named
Doolittle living in Painesvile. Ohio, has in
her possession vest that had been in her hus-
bands family for more than one hundred years
1t is of crimson velvet, of the best quality, and
the material composing it is enough to make
two vests of the present style. 1t has been
carefully preserved, and shows few marks of
age, except that the buttons are faded and the
moths have eaten in a few places 1t was worn
at the Old Folks concert, at the Cleveland
Sanitary fair and received much attention. 1t is
much priced by the family to which it belongs
as an heirloom of the last century.

THE DRAFT-The Senate Of Oh1u having
failed to pass the Special Bounty bill, that au.
thorized Township Trustees to give bounty
of $4,000 to each volunteer, we suppose the
exemption of Crane Township from the rigor:
OF the draft, is put in question, to the amount
of $5,000,00. Well we don't know hardly
what so think about the inauspicious prospect
before us, but it is of no use in being tormented
before ones time comes, we presume we may AS
well enjoy ourselves as best we can, until the
call to the tented field is made, and then if the
thing must be endured, although we would
rather be excused, like a true patriot we will
strap our musket to our side, shoulder our can
teen, and march away down in Dixie. 1t ia
almost certaiu now that Crane Township will
be subject to the unwholsomo effects of draft.
Let AZ men prepare tor the saerafce.

that Sterling Price has been made a Major

that several other rebel Generals have been

MEDICAL ADvIcE.-Dr. VIM. &. Dohertys Med
ical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine qua
non TO the welfare of our State and health of our
citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputation, al
though it may excite surprise is but the signal of
skill, and follows as the natural effect of such
cause. We are personally acquainted with gentle
men who had suffered for years under chronic dis
ease, and who had taken advantage of every
available means that promised relief, but without
success, until they called upon DR.. Dohsrty, who,
in an incredibly short space of time, has given
them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to announce
seeks, not by defamation of Others to establish his
reputation, or to the superstrueture of his
own upon the rule of another's fame. The Doctor
conducts his Institute in such a manner that must
be gratifying to all his patients. He examines.
advises, and recommends without charge, and the
patient, after hearing his terms for treatment, can
accept or reject at pleasure. In no case does the
Doctor make a charge unless he effects cure.
This he is able to do, because he feels the conf
dence which long experience has given, and no
doubt the consolation which appertains TO that
confidence. Persons afflicted with either acute or
chronic diseases would do well to consult the Doc
tation he asks no fee; nor does he insist on obed
TO his advice unless the patient places himself
under his care. His offices are on Sacramento

Correspondence from Company A.
PREsoorr, Arizona, Aug. 6, 1865.

HEsCOII, Atl1ouor aug os 4Coo.
EDIroa UsIos REcoRD-Dear Sir After
tedious march of three months and three
days We have at last arrived at the Capitol of
Arizoua Territory. and occupy the Capitol
buildings for our temporary quarters. About
one third of this time has been occupied in
lying over TO recruit our stock. During the
time occupied 10 making the trip We have
made direct travel of about fifteen hundred
miles 10 round numbers from Drum Barracks,
and are now about six hundred miles from
that place. This is the first place l have
found that bad the appearance of place fit
for white mans home since came into the
Territory. There is small section Of coun-
try here, and there is probably more like it to
the north and east. which has the APPEARANCE
of some of the most delightful places in Cali
fornia. 1t is q section of timber land more or
less densely covered with pine, cedar, oak,
black-walnut and black cherry, abouudiDg
largely with open glades OF beautifully green
grass which the late frequent showers have
caused to spring up for the second time this
season.
Prescott is situated 10 valley which has
The appearance of basin. Fort Whipple is
in the same valley near the apparent rim Of
the basin, on the creek one mile below and a
little north of east from the town. There ap
pears to be much confidence manifested by
persons here in the value of many of the
quartz lodges in the vicinity, although on &C.
count of danger from the Apache's but little
prospecting has been done. There are placer
diggiugs here, but no one seems to care much
about them; at present only little placer
mining being done. The Apache is a bad In
dian mucho maio, although we have seen but
two and would not have seen them had they
not came into camp to see the BIG MEN OF OUR
TRIBE. They are a cowardly set, and never or
seldom attack party anything near the equal
to them in numbers While we were lying at
Tucson man and his wife and one child were
killed by them about eight miles west of the
Muscal Ranch, and two little boys taken pris-
oners. Some seven thousand dollars 10 gold
coin and several thousand dollars worth of
goods on the way from the Rio Grande to
Tucson were also taken at the time. A de-
tachment of fifty men from our company were
led after them to no purpose except the loss of
one horse, which gave out and was left in the
mountain. Such robberes and murders by
the red skined rascals appear to be of frequent
occurrence. The day of their retributon is
yet in the future.
We expect our headquarters will for the
future be at this place or near here. We
might be in a more disagreeable place than this.
August Sth.-While our Headquarters will
be here we will be divided up great portion
OF The time into smaller parties and sent on
detached service Communications for men,
bers of this company should now be directed
to this place. We have nearly all touch of
the scurvy aud do not know how soon our con
dition will be improved. Vegetables are
hard for US to get hold of at present.
Respectfully.
