We are led to make ,rr.e remarks on nccoun, of recent outragcs upon .eople in that town. A short time ago, some man. whose blood was fired with liquor, made an assault upon an American woman, for the pur- nose Of violating her person. She gave the alarm when he ran, and a citizen who heard the ady's erie. and saw the fellow run, turned a shotgun upon him, and came near cmpBing it's contents into the fellow. While preparing to start for Prescott, in company with the mail, Mir Hun drcdmark an old and respected citizen of the county, was beaten and cut badly by some person with whom he was disputing. This thing will not do The old and respectable citizens of the ,own with the proper authorities, will have to .top it White citizens who cannot live together in peace in this Territory where they are con .,anily at war with the Indians, should emlgratc to Idaho, Montana or Nevada.
