sURGEoN.GENERAL's REPORT

We are indebted to Dr. Charles McCor- mick, Medical Director of the Department of California, for copy of the Annual Report of the Surgeon-General (U. s. A. for 1865, a neat document of eight pages, into which are crowded many interesting facts. The disbursements in this department for that year were Sl9 9,32s, ,4s9 g. This expenditure covers the most important military period 0. the rebellion, including Sherrnan's grand marches and Grants successful operations, which eliminated in the complete overthrow of the rebels. Hospital supplies and stores had reached the maximum of accumulation. There were 204 general hospitals with beds and other provision for l36,s94 patients, be- sides all the field hospitals, transport cars and ambulance trains. These enormous re- sources were supplemented by the supplies furnished by the Sanitary and Christian Commissions, which, of course, do rot appear in this report. The extent of hospital ar engagements, surgical and sanitary appliances and resources generally, for the care of sick and wounded men, were greater in some res poets than were eyer brought into requisition in any of the great military campaigns of Continental Europe. The Surgeons and As sistant Surgeons alone made a respectable army, ranging from five thousand to six thousand men. Of this number, lSS died from wounds or diseases incurred in the serv- ice. The cases treated in the General Hos pitsl alone, during the year under review, numbered l,O67 ,429, of which the mortality was per cent A record of the more impor- tant diseases and surgical operations was kept in 5O,O00 cases, and pathological collection made of 1880 specimens. It is sad but honorable record. There never was such an opportunity for the attainment and exercise of surgical skill, or one better improved.

MINING PROSPECTS.

We hear that croaking resident of some prominence in this town gives it as his judg- ment that the country has made no decided progress within the past three years, and that it will not within the next three. Moth ing could be more untrue. The progress of the past three years has been remarkable, in view of all We have had to contend with This sizeable town has grown up within that timei other settlements have sprung intd ex- istence; hundreds of lodes have been found, and many of them opened. The whistle of the steam engine has stirred the hills Roads have been established, ranches have been protitably worked, and now quantities of ma ehinery are here, and the work of reducing our precious quartz will soon be extensively carried on. Fortunately the croakers and alarmists have never influenced the energetic and hopeful men who constitute the great mass of our population. From the beginning, satisfied that the country was rich one, they have turned neither to the right nor to the left. Amid obstacles and annoyances such as few people have ever had to contend ='th, they have labcred without ce.s:n.. and now they are about to reap the reward oi their patience and perseverance. The fu- ture of Central Arizona is promising in the extreme. Despite the outside elsm0F Of h. dian troubles, capital Is finding it's way here. and every day brings fresh proofof confidence in the mines. The various districts are alive with busy workmen, engaged in sinking shafts, opening roads for machinery, or put ting the same in operation.
 The pioneer mills at Wickenburg and Lynx Greek have been entirely successful, and feet in the VUlture and Accidental lodes have been sold at high prices. Both those lodes. and indeed all that have been worked, show Pernanency and great richness, and there is reason to believe that numbers yet undevel- oped are equally good.
 The mill for the Sterling lode, (thanks to the activity of the deserving owners of that remarkable deposit of gold, is already on the ground, and will be ready for use by the 4th of July. The mill for the Big Bug lode, built under the careful supervision of Mir Borger, and spoken of as very superior one is near ly in place. Its whistle will soon startle the Big Bug hills, and give new life to that live ly district.
 The shaft on the Bully Bueno lode, in the Turkey Creek district, shows quantities of good ore, and, it is reported, that there is to be no further delay in the erectioB of the y'ckroy mill. Colonel woolsey's water mill.

THE NEW GOLD FIELDS.

The Santa fe Gazeae, of April 18th, hs the following announcement, signed by Gov. ernor Connolly. the newly appointed Govern, or Mitchell, Chief Justice Slough, and oth. CTS:
 An expedition will start from Santa Fr, New Mexico, on or about the 20th day of July, Of the present year, for the placer gold region near the head waters of the Gils. in the southwestern part of the Territory.
 All the traditions of the country, and the observation Of all who have passed through this region, cause the general belief that there Is perhaps no gold field yet discovered richer in deposits of the precious metals.
 It is intended that there shall be enough miners and practical mineralogists in the ex- petition to thoroughly prospect this region, and afford mutual protection.
 All who intend to join the expedition should come armed, mounted, and with sus- tenance Tor at least ninety days.
 This will afford the most favorable onnor- tunity yet presented to those who desire to visit this region, and assist in the develop ment of this acknowledged extensive rich mineral country.
 This party will probably fall in with the Swilling party, which left Pima about the lst inst, for the head waters of the Gils, in this Territory. We are also informed that large party from San Francisco, organized by the Campion brothers, who were here last sumracr, will go in the same direction. So we are likely to learn during the summer just what that part of the country contains. We wish all the explorers great success.

albeit be has had unexpected trouble in com pleting it, is nearly ready, and the Agla Fro or Goodwin District is acquiring new imPor ance every hour. The last found lode--the Ticonderoga--is said to surpass all others in tha, vicinity in size and wealth. The pros poets from it are wonderful to behold.
 On Lynx Greek there is unusual activity, reminding one of the first placer excitement there. The large building for the Lamson mill is enclosed, and part of the machinery is on hand. Mir Lamson has gone to Hardy vile :o hurry forward the remainder. The shaft on the Eureka lode is fifty feet deep, and although the rock has changed color, and abounds in sulphurets, it is thought. that it will pay spendidly. Preparations are mak- ing for the Coulter, Tyson and Cummings mill, and those gentlemen arc as energetic and hopeful as ever.
 Messrs. Shoup and Griffin are taking fine ore from the Box Elder lode. McCrackin and St. James are better pleased than eysr with the Deadwood. The Pointer lode looks finely, and without attempting to particular. ize further. we may say that all work done on the Lynx Greek lodes goes to show their excellent character. Major yanBibber has gone, with corps of men, to work upon the Golden Wreath, very rich lode in the Bis Bug, and many other lodes in that district are to be opened forthwith.
 Arrastras are at work at different points, and on Granite creek, below the saw mill, Messrs. Moves < Curtis are running On' by water power, (showing what mechanism and ingenuity can do without money,) an' crushing the ore of the Tenth Legion lode with satisfactory results. MT. Meachem vii soon renew work on the Gold Hunter, in tn same vicinity, and number of lodes abou Groom Greek are soon to be opened.
 Altogether, the friends of Central Arizon have cause to be well pleased with the min ing prospects, and as the day of national in dependence is close at hand, SO is that of tn pecuniary independence of our worthy pion eers. They have battled long and well, am victory is now within their grasp. instea of predicting that the country will make n marked progress within the next three year we venture to say that it will go ahead at more rapid and surprising pace than hs marked the advance of any quartz oountr upon the continent, so far removed from th great lines of travel and the commercial cen I tres.

INDIAN AFFAIRS.

The United States Senate has passed Doo- little's bill to provide for an annual inspec- tion of Indian affairs. The bill proposes there shall be established five inspection districts of Indian affairs: one to embrace the States of California and Nevada, and the Territory of Arizona; one to embrace the State of Or egon and the Territories of Washington and Idaho; one to embrace the Territories of Colorado, Utah and New Mexico one to embrace the State of Kansas, the Indian Ter ritory, Nebraska and southern Dakota; and one to embrace the State of Minnesota and that part of the Territory of Dakota north of Nebraska, and the Territory of Montana but the Secretary of the Interior, under the di- rection of the President, may from time to time change the boundaries of those districts {; and it creates five Boards of Inspection of Indian affairs, each to consist of three mem bers, one chief inspector, to be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, who is to hold his of flee for the term of four years one inspector. to be an officer of the regular army, who is to be annually detailed by the Secretary of var for that purpose and one, to be annual ly appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, from among such persons AS may be recommended by the annual meetings or conventions of the religious societies or denominations of the United States, as suitable persons to act up- on those Boards or, in case of tbeir failure

SALE or MINING LAsDs.-The following extract from letter written from this place by the Governor, to citizen of New York, is printed in the Eusniag Post of that city:
 The action of Congress in reference to mineral lands is keenly watched by our peo- pie. Without exception they are opposed to a sale of the lands, believing that it will lead to monopoly and speculation. It will require all the wisdom of our national legislators, 1T the present laws are changed, to devise a plan whereby the people will be satisfied and the best interests of the country consulted. That the nation has . right to look to it's mineral regions for a larger return is not questioned, but that such return is to be had by sale of the lands is not yet apparent. Whatever legislation is had, it should be gen erous in its dealing with the hardy and ad. yenturesarne men who have risked their lives. and encountered untold priyations, in opening and occupying these remote wildsn

THE APACHE QUEsTIos.--The letter of the Governor to Secretary Stanton which ap- pears in full in cur columns to-day, and which is the second he has sent that official (within the present year) regarding the employment oi native volunteers 10 light the Apache, will, we think, meet the views of the mass of our people. There is no ccncealing the fact that while we have had many good off, cers and brave men here, both in the regular and California volunteer servlce, comparative ly little headway has been made in whipping the Apache. No work can be thoroughly done without using the right agency It is the fault of the country, more than of the American troops, that they have not been successful. The natives have advantages for pursuing the Apache which they can never possess, and we make no doubt that the prosecution by ten companies Of them (the posts being held by the regulars, of such an aggressive, unintermitting war as the Cover. nor suggests, would result in the complete subgugation of the sayages. The Governors estimates of the number of hostile Apaches in the country, and of the troops required to fight them, will doubtless strike outsider. as surprisingly small, but they are reliable and will tend to disabuse the popular opinion abroad regarding the formidable character Of our Toe and the expense of conquering him.
