 Governor saiTord is in Washington; the whole country 7if knows that Ne Cormicl, Is n Washington: Gen Sherman and the Secretary of War are in Washington, of course; President Grant is in Washington, which is not at all surprising, and he fame of the Apache has reach-d Washingto accompanied by correet accounts of the terrible influence which he ex- ereises here. Soitwill readily be seen thatthere in Washington, the Tersons who have full " CT to save from the tomahawk of the Apaches us of Arizoua who have thus far escaped it's ter TOTS, are assembled; while abundant facts 10 point out the necessity of prompt action are already before them, and new ones are being constantly revealed There was time when we looked hopefully forward to the present Congress as the one which we believed would adopt measures to settle forever the career of this last methodically hostile tribe of Indians i; and let it be hoped that we did not look for ward in vain.
 The sympathies eff the whole country are with us at present, even the N. Y Sun which, so lately, was the first 10 misrepresent every report regarding Arizona andto recommend it's abandonment on the ground of public economy reeeutly published lengthy communication from Gov. Stafford which does not more clearly set forth the wonderful resources of Arizona than 1t does the erronious character of its own former arguments
 Under such auspices the present would seem a propositions time to make grand efart to destroy the last vestige of Savage opposition throughout the territory ct the United States for We contend that the subjusatiou of the It. dians of Arizona. 10 it's every boundary, will necessitate the subjugaion of the Indians of New Mexico whose stronghoIds are, for the greater part, not ia New Mexico but in Ari- zona, near the New Mexican boundary) The United efforts of Governor Stafford, and Del egate Ne Cormicl, in Washington, show that they tally appreciate tae importance of lne present, as the time destined 10 settle forever the question of Apache sapermacg ID Ail~ zona. And they will succeed right is on our side, and Mccormick is no; the man 10 per nit Congress in the Departments to become obvious of the rights auI wrongs c; the peu- pie whom he represents. Safo has a keen perception of thjr gs in general, while McCor- mick IS bold ambitious, ani perseverance, per soni6ed. They are of the class of men who 'OiH accomplish and if there exist in Gea. Grant, Congress, or the Departments, a single vulnerable point, such they will soon discoy- CT and operate upon. Already they have had an extended interview in Washington the f.l- lowing brief account of which We clip from the N. I, Times oi January l7th.
 "Goyernor Stafford of Arzona, and delepate McCO-m ckhad al 5XteHdsdluteryiew ui.h the President, and also w.tn Geueral Sherman and the Secretary at War, on Saturday, h regard to a more elhcIeht Waiiare against tns ludiluS in that Territory Their representatio s f he present pSecafious lle of the eoyle of Ari zona were listened to by General Sherman with much patience, as was also their q. ma foI more troops. although he could prom SC them nothing, at least until the new Army hill should be passed. There Is persistent appeal for additional troc ps in Montana and Aaizona
 
 some volunteer regiments are shortly to be in- trodueed in the House"
 So it will be seen that Geueral Sherman, by patiently listening to the representations made by our Delegatea and Governor, has eyinced con- scionsness of what is going on in Arizona and is about to shake off the apathy engeudered by season of repose after the late evil strug gle. The people of Arizona are now hopefub sven more, they are confident that before the lst of September some decisive measures shall lave been adopted which will protect hfe ar d property, and promote industry and general improvement There is no longer a single eason why said measures shoald not, at once oe carried into execution as a prefect ua lersiaud:0g regarding Arzona Is now estab lshed in Washington, whether her wealth, her Indians or her settlers be considered.
