To the Union Men of North-Carolina-
The new Constitution has been defeated,
and it now remains to be seen, if the Union
men of this State are going to allow
Worth and those who support him, to run
over them without any show of opposition,
whatever.
Nothing is impossible, and if the Union
men all over the State VIII rise up in their
might and present bold front to the pres
ent dominant party, Worth can be beaten. I
am certain no true Union man will support
Worth, and it becomes them to begin to act
and bring out their candidates for Governor
and the Legislature.
My first choice is the Hon. Geo. W. Logan,
of Rutherford, but am willing to give way
for some one, that the Howard Amendment,
does not exclude from Office, provided it is
adopted and 1 think it will be. The only
man that L know that is eminentIy qualified
for the position of Governor, is Gen. Alfred
Dockery, of Richmond County. If the
Howard Amendment is adopted, Worth if
elected, cannot be Governor; Gen. Dockery
if elected can take his seat, because he is not
under the ban.
Such being the case, Gen. Dockery is the
man. He possesses the confidence of the
people of this State, he can be elected. It
should be the aim of the Union men of this
State to throw obstacle in the way of
restoration. If they run Gen. Logan, it Will
be said that he was in the rebel Congress if
they Capt. Thos. Settle, it will be said,
he served in the rebel army; and almost
every man, except Gen. Dockery, has had
something to do with the rebellion.
Gen. Dockery is for the white basis. He
is for this government being controlled by
aohite men and having aohite men represented
in the Legislature agAolly.
word to the Union men of this State
Do the Union men of this State wish to be
tramplcd further in the dust because they
have dared to love the old Flag; are:
they content to allow Worth and his friends.

to have all the offices of honor, trust, and

SURRENDER OF MANUELIro.

Captain E. Butler, jth Infantry United State. Army, in command at Fort Wmgate, report, under date of 2l September, lsGG, as follows:

His wound s healed, bat be hes almost entirely lnst the u.e of hi- lett arm from its effects His son, son in law nephew, etc. are with him. H. confirms the statement that Cana do Blanco Is on his way to the BoSque by a southern trail.
 This party, of winch Manuelito i, the head ] is, as we understand it, the last organized band of Navajo, that remained in their coun , try, and refused to give up after the surrcn | der ol the main portion of the tribe. lt hn held out long and prr-i-tontly, Manuellto con sisteutly declaring, up tO the day 0i his sur render, almost, that he w..u d suffer dcat rather than go to the reservation.
 H., final overthrow has Dccn accoinplishe by the energetic measures which have hce ] followed up by Captain Butler, in his opera tions in the field in the Navajo countr, Such h'-, been the activity with which th Captain has acted, during the time he ha been in command at Fort Wrugate, that th

 And now when the fall is coming upon thei
 they find that there is nothing left for theI

MAKING COPPER DIRECT FROM THE

Dr. r. Lc Ciere of Paris, has recently pat- ented process by which copper ores are bro ken into pieces, and roasted in a reyerbatory furnace, and when they attain red heat, wa ter is made tO fall upon the ore like rain. When the white vapours disengage, the neat is increased SO as to effect the fusion of the mas, after which it Is run of, matt of ye- " white color being obtain d. Secondly, the white matt Is broken in pieces, and roasted in q reYerbatory furnace, in presence of large amount of air the heat Is first slowly applied in order to prevent the fusion of the mass
 and immediately a red heat is obtained h. project, water in the form of a fine ram on the mineral mass, care being taken to well str and subdYlde 1t with a stirrer. in order that the water shall act on the greatest num- Der of points Immediately copper appears m metallic state the above roasting pruces, Is repeated, until the larger pieces ol matt have become transformed into metallic copper which is rapidly effected. The addition of from only two per cent. of coal in powder to the mas, while at red heat, facilitates the roasting, although it is not absolutely neces- sary. The condition of the ingredients may be ascertaIned by withdrawing some of the large pieces fom the furnace and breaking them. The roasting should be continued until these pieces indicate the presence of copper m a metallic -tate, at which time the heat IS increased, so as 10 effect thr fusion of the mass, and mixture Is added of the powdered charcoal, or coke, lime or other calcreous mat ter, after which the whole Is agitated and mixed ls completely as possible Thirdly, a considerable chemical action will now be pro duced m the metallic bath. The supcrnat- ant scora Is removed by the aid of a suitable instrument, and air admitted without delay into the interior of the metallic bath. After numeIOus experiments, on a comparatively large scale, it has been found that the action Of steam, as previously mployed, in concur renee with airi entirely useless, as the inila- tion or injection of air into the bath, which may be effected in any suitable manner, will su ceed perfectly by employing tube of re-

DEATH OF JUDGE WALLER.

Judge Royal II. Waller, of San Francisco, died there, September 29th. He was man Of excellent repute, and deeply interested in Arizona. In company with Messrs. Sage, Gird and Bidwell, he was the owner of large silver mining interests at Castle Dome, on the Colorado. The Atta, of October 6, has the following obituary notice:
 Judge Waller was an old, well and favorably known resident, having arrived here with his estimable lady on the ship Norma, July. l8l9. from New York, via Panama The deceased was born at ROyalton, Vermont in the year 1892 on the 29th of November.

PRESCOTT, NOVEMBER 30, 1866.
INDIAN oUTRAGES.

Since the date of our last issue, in which there was some account of the massacre of Leroy Jay, Linton and Graham, near Big Bug, the Indians have been on the war path with unusual activity, and in large force The murder of superintendent George W. leihy, the capture of pack train near Date Creek, the audacious fight at Fort Rock, and other attacks, have caused much excitement.
 This has been increased by the fact that owing to the utter inadequaey of the military force in this part of the Territory, it is abso- lutely necessary that the people should take immediate steps to protect themselves.
 At meeting held in Prescott, on Friday evening, 23d inst there was large attend ance and an evident determination to organ ize an expedition of citizens to act at once in this county. Thos. Hodges was requested to raise company of 30 men to serve % days. X liberal sum was subscribed for the outfit, ard also for Indian scalps.
 In accordance with the popular wish the Governor will defer his proposed visit to southern Arizona, and go directly to San Fran CISCO, 10 represent the state ol hlalfs hcFe to the military authorities.
 The Indians are moving in strong bands and are evidently bent upon prosecuting a vigorous war Several of the western tribes are believe ta o. cting with the Apaches, and it will eg 4.ee ,tsa'v " increased force tc make life and proper 1e o his part of Ar izona. At present, at Fort nipple, camT Lincoln, and Date r4ek, ere are barely men enough to hold the po- :. But for ( ol Sanford's expedition, elewhere referred to no movement would have been made by th, troops, and the Indians must have concluded that they were not to be held to account iol their depredations.
 The country north of the Gila, has beer put oil with ridiculously small force, anC we trust that Generals Halleck and McDow ell will see the necessity of aifording it bette protection at once. It is of vital importance that the thoroughfares should be kept open the mails guarded, and the sayages prompt! punished. This is too rich country, to' full of promise, to be longer neglected 0u patient pioneers deserve, and should have, al the aid the government can give them.

THE NEW MINING LAW.

1r the convenience of the people of the Territory, we reprint the new mining law adopted bythe late Legislature, and which is to tale effect on the first Of January 1867. Jtis very simple and with the exception that all records are required, as under the present law, to befiled in the office of the County Recorder, it leaves the regulation of the mines to the several districts. So soon after the first of January as possible, the miners should meet, and enact regulations regarding the location and working of mines. Care should be given to the matter of marking claims in order to prevent confusion and liti- gation ir the future Something more than the pilins up of a few stones, the driving of srake,or tine digging of a small hole, should be required. Enough at least should be done lD clearly show where claims have been taken and to save new corners from beginning work that must prove profitless to them Tn our iudgmeDt it is also important that where In- dian hostil:ties do not absolutely prevent. it should be demanded that the claims be worked, at least once a year, if no; more frequently. It is idle to talk oi great pros perity in the Territory until the real value of the lodes is established, and this cannot be done by talk, but must be done by labor. Shafts must be sunk, tunnels opened, and the ore brought to the surface in quantities, if we would secure capital.
 We know the people arc poor and have much to contend with, but poor as they are the task of letting the world know how rich our mineral resources are, is in thoir hands, and the sooner they perform it the better it will be for them and for the Territory.
 Let them struggle on nanfully and they will certainly reap rich reward, and not be called Hpon to share itwith greedy capitalists Let them put the mines in a shape to dem onstrate their worth and they will find pur chasers at good prices.

This evening it starts with a strong escort and hope it will get through, but have no doubt but that they will have to fight their way. You will not have the mails regular until the Indians are driven back from the road. We conld raise com pany of one hundred men at this place if we only had show to organize, but as it i5 we will be compelled to stay at home l would advise the Yayapai delegation to do some thing for their country, or go without mail matter.
 It looked like business to see fine four horse coach drive up to the door, and hear all hands hurrah for the mail, and some hallooed out stare, and t proved to be a regular stage, with good horses.

COLONEL SANFORD.


 COLONEL SANFORD, of first United States > Cavalry, commanding at Fort Mcdowell, ar rived in Prescott on Thursday, on scout He has 35 men of his company with him, several Pima and Marieopa Indians, and It. Thomas ! Ewing, late of the Arizona Volunteers, as a guide.
 Col Sanford is one of the most efficient Of- fcers in the Territory. General Mcdowell lately issued an order experimenting him in very high terms, for his scout, (heretofore re- ferred 10 in the MISER), in which he killed 5 Apaches This order We shall give in full ih lur next. On recent scout the Colonel killed5 more of the red knaves, aud his ambi- tion seens to be to follow them up without cessation, Such an officer be he regular or irregular, is worth his weight in gold, and must have warm place in the affections of the people. He has set an example which we trust all other officers in the Territory will make haste Co initiate, Action, eonst, mt action against our common foe, is what is needed, and the man who kills the most Apaches is the best man for the hour, and him le people will delight to honor.
 Col Sanford would follow up the Indiaus
