PORTLAND, Maine, June. 27

Tn my last letter spoke of the decrease in ship-buildlng, and carrying trade of this State, and alledged as the cause of such de- cline, the fact of the falling of of the exports of our country. A few facts will confirm the position taken. In 1860 we exported nearly eleven million dollars (gold) worth of cotton manufactures In 1869, about four and hall million. The exports of general manufactures fell off from 1860 to 1869, more than three fourtbs. In 1868 we had 2s,lls merchant vessels and in the year 1869 they fell off 63I; and the tonage was reduced thereby nearly one-fourtb, or twenty five per cent. Tbe re- duction has been great in the amount of ex. ports of boots and shoes, woolens, carriages potash, etc, etc, and in fact in the amount nf all the products of the country. Still il is not true that our industries have been ret rograding; that the productive industries ot the country have not kept pace with the ex pendtures, and consumption is too evident | And yet, international commerce has faller off throughout British and European domin l ions. The real cause of this condition o things do not pretend to know; perhap, there are many causes, yet am far from be lieving that Congress or Parliament has muci to do to remedy it. The gold product of Cal ifornia has been declining until about twenty two million is the average. In this case tn, cause is obvious. The war of our own coun try, vast immigration into it, the wars O Spain with Chili, Peru, Cuba and her owr revolution, the condition of England, anc European countries, all have affected the pro duction and distnbstion ef wealth tbe work over,

On Saturday evening before retiring. while conversing with his servant he was noticed to place his hand up on lhe region Of the heart two or three times a- if in pain, but be said nothing He roased his servant early in the morning by knocking npcn the wall and calling 10 him. As the man entered the room MT. Hinton said I'm afraid I'm q ' ing. If die you must go into town and tell Jim Me Coy to come out and bury mel He had hardly spoken these words when he died without a struggle, or even a painful expression of coun- tcnance. Mr. Mccoy and other friends immc diatcly proceeded 10 inc ranch and brought the body to the city, and made ihe necessary arrange ments for the funeral. which took place on Tues day last Although the notice was short on ac. count Of the suddenness of the event, the funeral was the largest We have ever seen in San Diego. , The religious services were performed by the Rev.

 The mail between this post and Wicken- burg has been hauled cf, 90 we have no com munication with your section except hy pr- vate hands. Mir W. B. Hellings, Post trader at this post, leaves here for Prescott to-day. He will take all mail matter with him as far as wickenburg. l have only time to give you few items.
 The Apaches have been very busy here abouts since wrote you last. 4 few nights since they shot Pima Indian, who was asleep within twenty yards of Col. Sanford's quarters, at the post. They also broke into the corral on the Government farm, but luck fly did not succeed in getting any of the stock.
 The scout under Captain Mcinholdt did not do much in the killing business. onc Indian was killed. Part of the scout go' worsted by some three or four hundred In dians, and had to return to camp.
 The farmers on Salt River arc threshint ing their grain, and their crops turn out well Some of the farms yield 2,000 pounds of bar ley per acre. This can't be beaten south 0 San Francisco. Indeed, doubt if it can b' equaled, this season, anywhere.
 We have all kinds of vegetables here, iron the Government farm. New and good Irisl potatoes have been plenty here since the l5li of June, selling at ten cents per pound in cur rency. This is the first season that potatoer have been raised here. We have squash cabbage, onions, green corn, green beans i,eets, and in fact all kinds of vegetables tha grow anywhere. Water-melons and musk melons are plenty and have been so for th' past month. MCDOWELL.

The Moquis Indians.

 FoRr wrSGArE, \. M, July 2, 1870 To Brevet Major General r. Wheaton, com mandino Northern District of Arizona, Fort Wbipple, Arizona
 SrR:-Your communication of the 10th of May. 1870. is at hand fourd it at Fort Defiance, Arizona, on my return from the Mo oui Villages, where took station on the Eth day of May last.
 The Moquis Indians that have been most in the habit of visiting Prescott and Fort whipple, Arizona, are from oreybe, one oi the Moquis villages under my charge No doubt exists in my mind but that the Oreybe Indians trade, more or less, with different bands of the Apachcs, as do several Of the other villages, but not to so great an extent. During my stay represented to them the bad policy they were pursuing, anu ''s P'o0- able effects, if not discontinued, but as they are situated in remote and little known re- zion, and as they arc but L'dians, doubt II any remonstrances that could make would have any lasting effect. However, l made all the villages promise to treat hostile Apaches as their enemies, as we'll as ours, threatening discontinuance of Governmental assistance and the arrest and trial of the chiefs who al lowed any further tampering or trading witt any of the Apaches. expect soon to mak' another visit to the Moquis Villages for th purpose of vaccinating all their inhabitants and will communicate the contents of you letter to them.
 It would be impracticable q think to ge any Moquis to act as scouts, as they are lazy cowardly and have their growing crops to al chiefs and send an Indian to Prescott wit such information in regard to the matter { can collect.
 Very respectfully,
 Your obd't serv't,

But enough on this subject, l was intend ing to say word about the cities of Maine, and their growth and prospects. Augusta, the capitol, is fine city of about ten thou sand inhabitants. It has a fine water-power and is doing considerable in the manufacture of wooden goods, Its growth is very slow, and has no future as n city that is to be. It is in communication with the outside world by rail and water It is the seat of govern ment for the State, aside from this it is insig- niiicant and yet fine city with many beau. ! tihl grounds and residences. Bangor is about twice the size of Augusta, and is the greatest | lumber market of the State It far surpasses | Augusta in beauty, and elegance of it's streets, 1 buildings and grounds.
