Arizona miner., 1867-11-02

A day or two after tLe command of Major Clendenin left Beale's Springs Station on their last scout, they came upon rancheria or Indians in the vicinity of Bitter Spring. They completely routed the Indians, killing one, and destroyed the rancheria with every thing it contained. They captured Sharp's carbine, dropped by the Indians in their flight, the barrel of which was hot from firing when they got it.
 They also captured buck Indian, who claimed to be a Mohaye, but the Pah-Ute guide with the expedition declared that he was Pah-Ute, and wanted to kill him. The prisoner was, however, brought into camp. and the commanding officer proposed to make use of him by compelling him to conduct the soldiers to the hostile rancherias and camping grounds; but the Indian, being insufficiently guarded, made his escape
 Major Clendenin's command consists of Company II, Sth Cavalry, and number of recruits for Company E, lst Ca.slry.
 Col. Price has removed bis headquarters from Beale's Springs to the Willows, at which point the different commands of his expedi- tion will hereafter rendezvous.
