The Recent Victory Over the Apaches.

Want of time and space prevented us, last week, from giving anything like de- tailed and full account of the recent brilliant fight with, ana victory over, large band of Apaches, near Camp Lincoln, in this county, by a small party of soldiers and citizens, led by Lieutenant Wells, Sth Cavalry We are indebted Co one of the citizens who accom- panied the expedition, and took an active part in the fight, for the following account of the affair, which reflects great honor upon all those who participated in it, and should en- title them to the lasting gratitude of our cit. izcns:
 November 9th, 1868, at l2 o'clock NJ. the command, consisting of Lieutenant Wells, Sergeant Folquettc, Corporal Sutherland, Privatcs T. Carroll, Henry Stickhoier and Samuel Foren, of Company L, with Corporal Bertram, Priyates Vim. Scheiier, Jos. Whit comb, John Hall, John Daley, Henry Gran dall, John Smith, Thomas Gay, John Law renee, John Keenan and George Cooper, of Company B. Eighth T. s. Cavalry, left Fort Whipple for the purpose of following the tra,l of the Indians that attacked and captured the pack-train of Jose Rico. First night out We camped at Bowers Ranch. Next morr- ing we started early, soon struck the trail of the Indians, followed it all day and camped that night on Ash creek, about seven miles east of the Agua Eric. Next morning at sun in Ia. Coll ha trail till II o'clock, we rested an hour, then started on the trail again, and about o'clock p. m. we came up to. the Indians, camped in a deep, rocky canyon, when the fight com menced. The fight lasted from fifteen to twenty minutes and was hot while it lasted. The Indians broke at the first fire, and it was a running fight to the end. We captured four animals in the fight, one of which was so badly wounded we had to kill it. We had but one man, Mexican trailer. slightly wounded. All engaged in the fight deserve great praise for their indomitable courage and energy in following and staying number of the common foe, and 10 Lieut.. Wells, all praise is due for his cool and calm manner during the fight, andwho at no time seemed to forget that he was the commander. We left the ground at o'clock, and that night camped at the Cienega about seven miles from the place of the fight. Next day we returned to Prescott, all feeling that we had done some thing to be proud of In addition to the troops from Fort Whipple, the following citi- zens had an interest in the fight, Mir. Wun- derlich, Willard Rice, Lewis Ellit and J. D Monihon.

EARTHQUAKE IN ARIzoSA.-Startle not. Arizonians, Don't get "skeered.n This earthquake occurred on the other side of the Colorado river, in Pah-Ute county, among the faithful followers of the venerable Brigham Young, and did but very little damage New theless, we suppose it was a shake, a quake, or some other "inlandish" manifestation that on the night of the 7th instant, on the Mud dy river, scared animals, moved q wagon, etc. Now we are of opinion, (and so is our friend Governor Mccormick that Pah-Ute county belongs to Nevada, consequently we deny that our Territory has been shocked by an earthquake.

NEW BooE.-H. II. Bancroft & Co, San Francisco, have furnished us with copy of a work of which we stood in great need. It is entitled "A Dictionary of the Bible" com prising its Antiquities, Biography, Geography and Natural History. The book contains s vast amount of information, illustrations and maps of all prominent places mentioned in the Scriptures, and should find its way into the household of every Christian family

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE did not vote for Grant, although prophesying his election. His Honor is little split up on politics, be. ing with the Royalsts on reconstruction, and opposed to them on the tariff question. The venerable old Hopper predicts that, before 6 year, Grant and the Radicals will part com pany, and new party will spring into exis. tence' am dry, and want drink.n

NOTABLE @ CHANGE.-We have it from good authority that Judge Sydney R. DeLong, the ostensible editor of the Tucson Arizoaiqn, has renounced his former faith and joined himself to the Catholic Church. We hope the Padres will cure him of his low and vil- gar habit of lying by contract, for another man. Wonderif "spanish Dictionary had anything to do with the conversion of this great man!
The weekly Arizona miner., 1868-11-21

WE are in possession of bran new thing on parchment. It is no more nor no less than picture of the brilliant luminary of Tucson, Judge Sydney R. DeLong, the osten- sible editor of the Ari,oRian. For it we are indebted to MT. Gentle, rho "took" it by consent of the learned Judge. Mr DeLong looks well in picture; his head and face in- dicate that he belongs to the Caucasian type of man his forehead is well suited for flat tening out tor.Rlas; his nose projects some distance from his face, and is, we think, large enough to "smell a mice" His mouth ap- pears to have been we'll cut with some dul! instrument, either crevice spoon ora shovel, and the eyes-those glorious "yorbs," look like empty egg-shells.
 On the whole, brother DeLong is rather good looking, intelligent, fascinating male bird, and it is pity his paper hasn't got a few more editors and subscribers, so that the Judge would have less trouble on his mind, and could devote himself to the study of his Spanish Dictionary" We mean to pre- serve this picture, by having it framed with "brass, and mounted on praying ass, so as to represent the pious Judge in the act of blowing his trumpet for the patriot McCor- mick, who, while ''the life of the Republic was in danger of being taken" by the Johnny Rebs, left the scene of conflict and danger and came out here to serve his country for the paltry sum of S2, 2,500 per annum.

NoTIcE.-The Treasurer of Mohave county wishes us to inform our readers that he is now prepared to pay all legal claims against the county.

SIcR.-We regret to learn that General Deyin, the military commander of the Dis trict of Arizona, is sick with chills and fever, at Tucson. Hope he will soon recover and move headquarters back to Prescott, where there are no chills and fever. and where white soldiers are thought more of than copper colored ones.

BIGoTED, fanatical Radicals are in the habit of justifying themselves for their harshness towards the South by saying that her people are as rebellious as ever, and that these meas ures are necessary for the protection of white and colored "loyalists," but the recent ac- ton of the notorious Rebel General For rest, who, at request of Governor Brownlow. marshalled his "raiders " at Memphis. Ten. nessee, and protected the Radicals while vo- ting and electioneeFing for their sectional candidates and principles, gives the lie to the base assertions of the Radica! tyrants.

A FEW years ago some people had an idea that 1t would be difficult to get water on what they termed the "desert," between La Paz and Date Greek, but that, with other ideas, is exploded and proven to be erroneous. Wherever well has been sunk upon this road abundance of water has been found and in a short time, wells and water will be almost ''too plenty" upon that great thoroughfare. Recently, at Flint's Station, as we learn from Mir. George Coulter, we'll was sunk to the depth of 13O feet, when the water raised in it 70 feet, and has not since decreased. all though whole trains of mules have slaked their thirst at it. The day will yet come when the 'so-called deserts" of Arizona will he thickly settled, and when they twill be made to blossom as the rose"
