ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC RAILROAD,

Attention is called to an article, from a New Mexican paper, copied in another column, which refers to this, the much talked of Southern Pacific Railroad. It will be seen that the corporators for Arizona are William II. llasdy, Coles Bashford and King s. Wool sey, three men of enterprise and good repre- Sentatives of our interests This road is to follow the Arkansas and the Rio Grande to Albnqurque, and from there to go to the Pa ciiic by the Both parallel. The route is beyond question one of the most practicable across the continent, and with the grant of land already given the company by Congress and the promised subsidy, we shall not be surprised if the road is completed before that of the north.
 To Arizona the progress of this enterprise will be of the greatest interest and importance We learn that deviation win be made from the 35th parallel to Prescott, which is about midway between the 34th and 35th, and that the work of surveying for tue road in Arizona win soon begin.

THE PUBLIC PRINTING.


 The DAILY MINER for the session of the Legislature proved an entire success. The last number was issued early on the morning of the 7th inst, and. with two supplements. contained all the proceedings of both hcdses to the final adjournment. We are indebted to the honorable members and to the clerks for the facilities rendered us, and have espe- cial pleasure in referring to the following proceedings as recorded in the journals.
 In the House on the 9th inst, Mr. Piatt. chairman of the committee on printing. made the following report, which was adopted:
 The committee on printing beg leave to lbmlt tbe following report During the present session rhe Journals nave been regu- larly furnished the House, printed in neat and convenient manner. and renerallv cor. ret. The bills ordered printed, have been well executed, and the required number inya- riably given as required by the House.

LElnN-lRErEBA-slCKEnooT.

We are informed that when superintendent Lcihy heard uf the attack of the Mohaycs up- on the Walapais, after the atrocious mur ders committed by the latter in the Sacra- mento district he sent Ireteba Co reduce Sick ehoot the captain of the Mohaye~, and to reprimand him for his course but that the Governors big seal paper of compliment to Sckehoot, furnished at the request of Mir. Hardy, reached the river a day or two later and was accepted by him and hi, braves, as higher authority.
 Ircteba returned to Ia Paz fully convinced we presume, that whatever the course of NIT. Leihy, the Governor and the whites general ly, heartily approve the action of Sickehoot. NIT. Leihy should remember that the moment the Indians manifest hostility, they are to be dealt with in the most summary manner ; and from all we can learn, the blow dealt the Walanais by Sickchoot has not only demor- alized he latter, but united the Mohayes in their friendship to the whites Sickehoot is the "big lugin" about lIardyville and MohaFe city, and he should be thanked rather than rebuked, by the superintendent.
 Since Mir. Leihy has not offered any expla- nation of the conduct of his pets" in Skull Valley, or taken any steps to reproye the Wallapais for their frequent outrages, nor even visited them or the Pah- -Utes, it ill be- comes him to find fault with Sickehoot for his good faith to the whites; and if Ireteba would hold his high position among the Mo hayes and the whites. he must not be misled into antagonism to. Sickehoot, or to any red-skin who takes sides with our settlers and proves his friendship by aiding them in punishing the Wallapais, or any hostile tribe. In this connection We may say that Sickehoot and his band received the Governors showy document with great satisfaction, and that, through an interpreter, the following ac- knowedgment has been received
 MoHAyE RANGE, Oct. 2l, 1866. Hon. R. (. Mccormick, Governor of Arizona. SIR-lour kind and courteous letter dated October l2, has been received. Allow me, on behalf of my braves, to return my sincere thanks for your compliment. We feel deep interest In the whites. and will always try tO benefit them and aid in exterminating the hostile Indians. Truly yours,
