NEW YORK.

New YoRK, June 25.-The dispatches
from Minister Mcmahon cover from
early in January, when he arrived in
Lopez's line, down to the 2lst of April.
The dispatches shed much new light on
affairs in that quarter. Lopez still main
tains a warlike attitude, and expresses
determination to resist to the uttermost.
Several Enclosures from Lopez to Mona
hon are transmitted. Mcmahon makes
no allusion to his recall, from which, it 10
inferred, the letter did not reach him.
The supposed Gag Of truce which brought
these dispatches through the allies line
took back dispatches awaiting transmits
sion to him. There is no longer any
doubt but that the allies have been the
cause of cessation Of communication.
Recent dates from Cuba say that q
large number of Spanish troops have de-
serted to the patriot army. There is q
great deal Of sickness among the Span
iards. The Republicans have received
as much or more aid from Mexico and
other points, in the way of munitions,
arms, etc., than they ever received from
the United States.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The Com mis-
sioner of Indian Affairs received letter,
dated May 3lst, from Geo. M. Dent, su-
perintendent Indian Affairs for Arizona
territory, in which he gives sad state
ment of the conduct Of the Indians.
News of depredations come from all
parts. They have made attacks on herds
and wagon trains in the immediate vi
cinity of Camp Verd, wounding and
killing several men, and driving of stock.
The same scenes have been enacted near
Camp Lowell. The River Indians of
Gila and Colorado are quiet, being now
engaged in planting. The trouble, he
says, is owing to the temporary removal
Of troops from the forts in the territory.
The committee having charge of the
Monumental Dedication at Gettysburg,
on the Fourth of July, have made az
rangemeats with the principal railroads
leading to New York, Boston, Chicago,
St. Louis, Baltimore and other points,
for the issue of excursion tickets at re-
duoed prices.

day found an old pistol, such as is now
to be seen nowhere save in the Tower Of
London and the Dresden Treasury.
This must be mistake. Tbs Pr nciple
of Colts revolver was known several
hundred years ago. A late lamented and
distinguished officer Of our navy, and q
native Of this city, often described war
implement on this principle, which be
had seen in the Citadel Of Venice, for
projecting stone and other missiles in bat
tie. It was q revolving wheel, contain
ing eight or nine chambers, wound up by
powerful spriHg Of steel, producing
great concentrated force, as q substitute
for gunpowder, and constructed TO throw
the missile through single chamber or
barrel. A stone Of sixty pounds could
be thrown q quarter Of a mile.
II was an improvement on the Catapu
Of The Greeks. This being really the
histary Of the revolving principle, il 10
