|Tr il cato to camp McDo-ell. He goes to Mc- r,rsu for the purpose of getting his wife and ,,.hold god and moving them to the Toll-gate I \ -,,, been unAble to get transportation for !. rhep he left there, some three weeks ago w. understand that the General Is well pleased :. .rib his new location.
 t,,rr WHEELER A. A. Q. M., at the new camp ,,. Tolea,e came into Fort Whipple and \ p...co,t late last week, and, in company with c.o ". Bowers, started back about noon Mon F5.,ls.t We bad an introduction to the Lieu ,.,,o, ronnd bim to he an agreeable gentleman and fully alive to the importance of reconstruct ;,- the rebel Apaches
 Fsgl, GR.rEFcL.-George Props, the man who .so, and wounded himself short time ago, is rog nearly al right again. and requests us 10 ,,,ser his sincere thanks 10 the citizens of Pres 4 ,.,, for their kindness in contributing money for l. relief. more particularly 10 Messrs. Aiken and c,Hn for their efforts in raising said money, E .,l :o Df. Geo. D. Kendall, for "kind attention. ,sll and gentlenaniy conduct" Oy late there has been some talk in military | fir i,o new post somewhere in the vicinity of Bill Williams mountain, some Ge or 70 miles north of Prescott but We hose that nothing of the sort viU be done, and canRst believe that any such N change is seriously contemplated by the military authorities. If pest is needed at or near the aforesaid mountain, one should be established, ba, i, wou d be a very snwise act Co strip tbe settlements surrounding Prescott of all protec- lion for he sake of foanding new post in Q region of countr7 where there are no settlers to rro,eet. and but few Indians to war upon. Right Eee is where we need the protecting arm Of our soldiers.
 WILLOW VALLEY is getting to be great resort i5- toe fashionable folks ef town and country. One Sunday recently we learn, A. C. William .on entertained some 6fty people in very sats- factory manner. Crowds also visit the ranches of W. Johnson. l.. A. Stevens. Ri Pnutney. and U Adam Scott. every Sunday, 10 sec the melons and other good things growing there. As will be seen by notice in another column, A C. Williamson, the model rdnchero of Willow valley, wishes people travelling back and forth, through his ranch, 10 do so upon the road, and not veut across lois," a. some have been in the T haDt of doing.
 0rR ancient and honorable friend, M K. Lertr. has rented his fine raaeh in woolsey valley, and i, in town, comforting himself as becomes one of bis age and dignity.
 GLAD TO SEE IT--No better proof Is required by us to know that many of the citizens of this place enjoy life and are increasing their stores E oi wealth, than the nrsuber of iuxnriousiook- ag individuals who, every afternoon turn out ca gay steeds, and ride into the country for ex- ercise. Although not able to do so ourself, VIC do not envy these lucky individuals; on the con ray, We pat them on the back, and advise them p go 1t while they're young.
 JOIN A. RUsu has commenced the erection of dwelling house, on a To, adjoining his lumber k yard
 Now while lumber is so very cheap, Is good
 the Tor people who own vacant lots in town to
 build houses upon them. At presen, there is a
 scarcity of d~elEng beuses here, and should the
 serling and other mines pay as we'll as is ex-
 peeled, houses will soon be in great demand. cur people desire ts sesoe in tue plaza. tie present is propitioss tine to secure the mate F rial
 WE have heard some grumbling in regard to
 'ae action of the Supervisors ia iastructing the Collector to collect from taxpayers ten per cent ' um' over and above tie amount eS taxes levied
 TOT lees Guess little gruxsbling will not be
 00lec'ed to, as tAis year, we fear, it will be hard 6 "oTk Tor many to make ends meet. hcoSosr-we cannot too deeply impress up ae minds of our people the good results thai nh' surely How from the practice of economy 'hmers' who, this year, will raise but one-hal o' one-lhrd of crop, will have to economiz, @e ihe very duce to make the mare go. "Smil, e'' !" back" less, wear out your old clothes and
 die' on corn bread freely.
