frst-rate time They killed about dozen wild turkeys and twice as many deer. but inc weather was SO warm that they were unoble to preserve the game in good condition. and so brought but little into town. Altbouob we have segn none of the venson we are sat. islied that the party killed it, because Il friend ol ours upon whose yeracity we can rely and who nose heap, assures us that he ,nSD ono ol the hams. Hon. D. $ Lount had an ad. venture with some grizzlies. Comipr one day to the end of large fallen tree. he ssw bear at the other end. Raising his t Uenrv ;, to his shoulder and taking good aim. he fired he bear fell, and immediately another showed itself Again Mr. Lount hlazed away. wound. ing the second bear, when third put in an appearance At this critical iuncture a cart ridge got foul in Mr. Lount's gun. renderinO It temporarily useless. and he began to tbinI, his ticket was stamped for " Kingdom Come ;' but luckily the two yafmnts that appeared last did not sec him and, doubtless attributino all the disturbance Co the first one. attacked and worried 1t quite roughly. While this was going on the artist of tae party accident ally came along, and attempted to drq,s the anlmals-into camp he might have succeeded If the bfutes had not been too busly fighting to observe him. Finally the jcars vent away growing and fighting, and IIr Lount retnrned to camp, not thankful for his bare escape. but cursing the ill luck which had deprived him ot supper oi roast grizzly. On the follow ing day several of the party visited the scene oi the adventure and found tracks blood and a large quantit Of hair which the brutcs had torn from each other. No other bears were seen by any of the party We understand that the party saw some Indians, but did not get within rifle range of them. The most singular and incxplicable thing connected with the expedition is, that the party brought back with thcn as far as Pc otie's ranch, gallon and Q half of whisky! We can only account ! for t on the hypothesis that the presence of the joy inspiring liquid in camp was known ! to but two or three, who never drink liquor except as a preventive of chills and rattle snake bites.

 FRoN FoRr McDowELL.-Undcr date o ! Fort Mcdowell, Oct 9th, friend writes a. ! follows:
 We are to start day after to morrow for the site of the new post, which is to be called ! Camp Reno. From what can iearn it is to ! be established on Tonto creek, about fifteen miles above the mouth of that strcala Major Mils's company 9f the 32I Infantry and Lieu tcnalt Dubois's company of the ith Infantry are all the troops that are going there at pres ent. The command wjlI take forty pack aui- nials and oae wagon, 5at | think 1t will be some time before they get the wagon to its dcstination.h
 We know something of tSe country in whicl it is proposed to establiss, this camp and think it will be found to be an excellent point to scout from, as il is right in the hear of the Indian country. But two comlanics Of infantry is too small force to bc able [, accomplish much in the way of killing In dians. We rather think they will be kcp busy enough watching the stock and othe
 Government property belonging to the camp without scouting We believe it would hav
 been much better Co strengthen some veal post with these two companies than to estab fish new cue. However, the location is
 good one, and it may be that General Nc
 Dowell will soon be prepared to back up thi movement and do justice 10 the camps dread
 established for the protection of the settle
 nents, by furnishing more troops. Hope sc
