We are not dis posed to apologize in any WAY for General Mcdowell. or for General Mason, but while they seem ready and eager to do all in their power to help us in our contest with the Apache, and in the opening and occupation of the Territory, they should have the conil- dence and gratitude of all When, if ever, it is apparent that they are neglecting their business, and thereby damaging the interests of the country and of the people, we shall not hesitate to condemn them. For the present we sec no reason to doubt that they are acting in good faith and to the full ex- tent of the resources at their command. The work which they have in hand we all know to be difficult, and no reasonable man familiar with the country, the labor and cost of nov ing to and through it, and the habits of the Apache. will expect 1t to be completed in a day. It ought to be a source of general grati- iication that more troops are in the Ter ritory, more posts established, and larger number of intelligent officers in command than at any previous time and further, that capital is sending machinery to work our

A NATIONAL MINNG BUREau.-Sepst,r Stewart, of Nevada, has introduced in the Senate bill providing for the formation of Mining Bureau, at the head of which is to bs a Commissioner Of Mining.

PRosPsRfTY OF Los ASGELEs.-Tbe yex, of Jan l9, has an article from which we clip the following:
 At no time for the past ten years of ,mr history has the city and county of Io~ Ah- geles shown such unmistakable signs of pef manent prosperity our merchants have larger stocks of merchandise on hand than st any time since the settlement of this countf, by the Americans. Wholesale establish ments superior to any in tine State. outside the city Of San Francisco, if not equal to any in that city, have sprung mp in this city dur ihS the past lev years; the amount Of goods drawn From this city for the purpose of sup plying The extensive markets Of treat Ssit Lake and the surrounding country, as we'll as Montana Territory, during the winter months contribute very materially to swell the ex. tensiye business already transacted by our mercantile community. There is He place where 90 much can be produced from the soil, by SO little labor. as in this county. Here VIC nOt 0nly have the advantage of q great variety of products, uniting as we do, nearly all the fruits of the tropics, with the heavier and more substantial crops of the cold ef fesioiis; two cTOIr are frequently produced rom the same farm in one year. lt Is ns. uncommon thing for our farmers to harvest s' crop 0f wheat or barley and then SOW the same ground in corn and thus reap doubis reward for their labor
 All of which goes to confirm our opinion that the vicinity of Los Angeles is one of the choicest parts of the State of California, and that the people of that county have only them selves to blame that they have not great population and extensive business.

uowTHE SOUTH BEARS ADvERsrTY

From letter Of Southern lady to the
Baltimore American we clip the following;
Ours il a poverty Of which no one is
ashamed, and Of which very few complain.
We are willing 10 bear il, and its universal
ity makes il more tolerable. When j know
that the most intelligent and refined women
in the State, deserted by their deluded SER
wants, are doing all kinds Of homework
sweeping, busting, making beds, and even
in some cases cooking and washing-it is
much easier for me 10 iron the towels my
little son had washed, while turn occasion
ally laughing, towards the fireplace, where
an invalid gentleman (son of former Gov
ernor) is engaged in churningl j must con-
TESS that this attempt furnishes us with more
amusement than butter. For, believing this
state of things to be only temporary, we
make merry over il, compare notes with our
friends, and boast of our success in these I'M
tried fields.
Many refugee ladies feed their families
by exchanging the contents of their ward
robes for articles Of food. Chow are your
sisters % said 20 young man who had left
home TO become a tutor. "Their complexion
looks badly" was the reply, "but that is not
surprising when you consider how long they
have been eating old frocks." Have they
any lights p was my next query. With
perfect gravity he replied, "No; when the
moon does not shine, they go TO bed by
lightning" But matters are mending In
this very family lightwood has superseded

light and happiness around.
But there. are cases over which no one
can laugh. know Of a family whose pro-
perry was counted by hundreds Of thousands,
who have not tasted meat for months. A
gentleman of high scientific attachments,
formerly professor in college, is literally
trying to keep the wolf from the door by
teaching few scholars, one of whom, girl
of sixteen, pays quart Of milk per diem
for her tuition. Innumerable widows, orphans
and single women, whose property was in
Confederate bonds, are penniless, and are
seeking employment OF some kind for food.
On thewhole, our people are bearing their
trials bravely and cheerfully; out 30 wide
spread is the ruin that even If the new sys-
tenn works well, il will take at least half a
century 10 put us where we were. Georgia
will recover much sooner.

renee, Kanszs----A Lively skirmish.
From the KansasState Journal, FebT.l
Last Saturday night while Mr.. John
Callahan and his wife, who reside near the
park in this city, were sitting in their front
room, reading, Mrs. Callahan got up and
wen. into the kitchen for some water. On
opening the door an animal entered, and on
seeing the lamp-light made spring from
the floor up 10 the ceiling, but fell back with
a crash. He then sprang on the stove, then
10 the piano. BY this time Mrs. Callahan
had retreated UP stairs. After fastening the
stair door, Mr. Callahan took hurried view
of his new visitor. From former observa-
tons, which he had had in the mountains,
he soon decided that the intruder was cat

that he is, he prepared for action. First,
however, he opened The door and gave the
ugly yarmint a chance 10 compromise by
leaving. But his opponent did not believe
in backing Gut IL he did get into an ugly
scrape. Nesrmistice could be agreed upon,
consequently the parties prepared for bat
tie.
Mr.. Callahan armed himself and assumed
the offensive. Throwing out his skirmish-
ers inthe shape of billet Of wood, his catship
received the first charge on his side, when he
in turn spraag at Mr.. Callahan but landed
on the table. From the table he made de-
monstration upon the windows, literally de-
molishing the curtains. He then took up
position on the settee. Mr.. Callahan fol-
lowed up the attack, when the enemy took
possession OF, and perched himself upon the
bureau glass His weight here overbalanced
him and he fell between the bureau and the
wall. Mr.. G. got the advantage by pushing
the bureau against the wall and hemming in
the rascal.
At this critical juncture Mr.. G. received
achievements in the person Of another sol
der, Mr.. Baldwin, late ef the 1lth Kansas.
They now proceeded 10 barricade the enc

council Of war was held, and il was agreed
TO capture the enemy alive If possible. This
idea had TO be abandoned, however, when
navy revolver was brought TO bear upon the
cat and he was shot-one terrific scream and
all was over. The cat measured three feet
two inches in length and sixteen inches in
height. Mr.. Callahan has taken proper
measures TO preserve his hide as a trophy.
Mr.. Baldwin, who is trapper, thinks this
almost as ugly customer as he ever saw.
He also states that while out hunting The
other day he saw some four or five Of these
ugly animals short distance south OF the
city.

1t is the mark of a generous foe, when his
adversary is fully vanquished, to forbear
from insult. We are persistently subjected
10 IL. Now we acknowledge defeat to its
fullest extent. We have been thoroughly
suhiugaied. We admit the failure Of the
effort for independence. We have no idea
of renewing ii. The questions at issue have
been fully settled by the logic Of the sword
and the bayonet. We submit; we are will
ling, in good faith, to yield allegiance to the
victorious power. We are willing even 10
apply for "pardon" in its legal sense. But
20 speak of pardon and forgiveness, as IL we
believed ourselves 10 have been in the wrong,
is different thing. To ask a man to re-
pent, with dagger at his throat, may in
deed elicit a profession of penitence, but no
reasonable man believes the judgment and
conscience 10 be convinced by the sword or
the dagger. As we have intimated, a gen.
erous foe does not ask for professions of pen
itence. He is satisfied with submission. ~
These truths are as palpable to others as
they are 10 us.
Would the Radicals have il otherwise?
Would they respect as, or trust us the more,
IL we protested that the surrender of our
armies, the sack Of our cities. the imprison-
