DAN rHANCISCO, May ID.
The military authorities have information
from Gen. Mason dated April 25th, who saws
nothing about the massacre of Fort Goodwin.
A letter with later dates from Yamae discred-
its the report.
1t is now believed here that the 18th Regu-
lars could not have reached Fort Gibson be-
fore April Doth.
SAN FRANCISCO, MAY 16.
A letter from Charles Hamilton, dated Will
liams Fork, Arizona. April 30th, seems to con-
firm the massacre at Fort Goodwin. 1t states
that the massacre occurred ten days previous,
and that out OF two companies of regulars,
the third battalion of the 14th regiment, con-
sisting of 100 men, only seven escaped. The
remainder were murdered and scalped. The
Apaches reaped rich harvest, carving Off the
arms, ammunition, &c. A number of suppos-
ed friendly Indians were admitted into the
fort and surprised the garrison.
The tribe called Huolapes had murdered
one man and committed other outrages in the
vicinity of Williams Fork.
Lieut.. Corvantes, of Co. A, with 26 men. at
tackled the Apaches forty miles east of Camp
Lincoln, about March oath, killing 22, wound
ing five and capturing two. The same party
was planning an attack upon the large ranches.
Honolulu advlces say sugar is coming for
ward freely from plantations, and is selling at
from 1-2 to cents.
Advices received at Military Headquarters
from Arizona state that the recent murder of
Huaffa Yuma, Chief of the Yualapi tribe, by
party of whites in revenge for murder COM
mitted by vagrant Indians, was the cause of
the taking up of arms by that tribe against the
whites in Colorado Valley. =
Dispatches received at Military Headuuar-
tiers from Gen. Mason, dated April Both, say
the reported massacre at Fort Goodwin is with
out foundation.

POLITICAL.

The New Orleans municipal election, re-
sulting in the choice of the National Demo-
cratic" ticket, with man at the head who had
to be pardoned before he could run, was ano-
ther signal example of the victory of the Dutch
in Holland.
we publish elsewhere the President third
veto message, said to have been written by Mr..
Seward. Why the absence of the Southern
delegates should be dragged into this matter,
only that Wisdom which for some inscrutable
purpose constructed the brain of Andrew John
son, can conceive. That passage, at least can
only have been written by the President. For
the rest, we agree entirely with the reasoning
of the message. The bill was passed by the
Senate by a vote of 10 to 13. The House pass
ed it by a vote of 80 to 55. More than one third
voted against the bill therefore IN each house.

be increased by the establishment of central office

cipal towns in Maine early in the approaching au-

MUNIFICENT REQUESTS.

The late Henry H. Boody, who died in this city JAN
uary 18th, 1858, by his last will and testament, be-
queathed to his WIFE, Mrs Mary B. Boody, all his es
tate. both real and personal, to her and be-
hoo forever. AT the time in letter to her, he
expressed his wish that charitable purposes should
ever be remembered by her, leaving it to her own
good to select such mediums benevolent pur-
poses as her heart should dictate.
From the period Of his death, up to her decease
Mrs. BOody has ever been warm friend to the vari-
charitable societies in our city, and they have Of
ten experienced liberal gifts from her. More than
that; she has sought out the destitute and needy,
and, from the fulness of her heart, relieved their
wants ond distresses. So liberal have been the BEN
elactions OF this kind-hearted woman that she has
been obliged to encroach upon the principal OF the
property left her, in order fulfill the dictates OF
her benevolent disposition. So r -"

seen for twenty yearsl by her will, executed june
1868, she made large bequests to various charitable
associations in city, the interest of which amounts
are to be devoted to the purposes of the several
ciations The making OF this will did not stop her
dispensations; and she continued giving, with lib
eral hand, until she sank to her final rest on the St
day Of May, 1866, in the 10th year of her age Her
death was great loss to city, but what is our
loss is her gain. C so

some specimens of cloth manufactured at the WOOL

in our Judgment, compare flvorably with the same
kind made in Great Britain, and now SO much in de-
mand for business suits in this country. If such nice
cloth as this can be produced within twenty miles of
Portland, the question arises, what is the need of
sending so far for clothing and neglecting our own
manufactures? Those interested would do well to ex-
anime the cloth made at this factory, and, in our
opnion they will find they do better OF home at
least in some kinds of goods, than abroad
