VALUABLE. DECISION.

No document ever emanated from a civil official in Arizona of equal i'm portance to all the settlers and mer- chants and traders, as the one we give to-day by his honor, Judge John Titus, and which was given in Court last Tuesday.
 When we state that it was in con- temptation to proceed in like manner as against Richard N Go. with every trader in Arizona (for all the traders deal with Indians) except the licensed and favored few, we state truth, and one that ought to convince all how important 1t Is to have the law on the subject so clearly set forth as is done by Judge Titus. The chief actors in this audacious proceeding against Richard & Go. will with the airs of offended virtue indignantly deny that such sweeping action was intended, now that they see probable failure, even should they carry it to a court of last resort but their clack-valves did not hesitate to publicly boast of their owners powers and purposes.
 We are always willing to credit any man or men with an act pro ductive of good, even, though it be a lonely one and badly designed j; hence, 1t must be admitted that the attempted confiscation of W. Richard & Co.'s goods has brought forth the ahle and exhaustive decision of Judge Titus, 8 decision which we predict will neet with an emphatic affirma- ton in any higher court to which it may be appealed. The Judge has been a close observer for many years of all p.netices as we'll in honest be- half of the Indian as those merely in his name by which to crush fair con- petition and erect species of despot- ism in the new States and Territories {; and he has also with zeal and in telligence noted the governing law, and its exposition he now gives.
 Let the people read this decision snd preserve it for reference, as we have no hesitation ill stating our belief that all settlers who have trade, or may have, with the Indians can rely upon the law as applied to the Richard case by Judge Titus.
Arizona citizen., 1871-12-09

THE present trial of men for killing Apaches, is bringing forth abundant evidence that the Camp Grant fed h. dians have committed nearly all the thefts and murders within many miles about Tucson during the last year. The few men who perjured themselves at Colyer's bidding on this point, may console themselves as best they can.
Arizona citizen., 1871-12-09

AS Colyer did not hesitate to lie about every material fact relating to Indian Affairs in Arizona, we are not surprised to learn that he Iceland we feel certain that he did so with malice-aboat the utterances of THE CITIZEN. As our side has won, the quite universally exposed liar may trot along on this score.

THERE is no longer a doubt but that the public fed Indians at Camp Date Creek, slaughtered the six men near Wickenburg, and we are in formed that General Crook is we'll convinced that they are the guilty wretches, and we predict the General will eventually ascertain about which ones did the bloody work.

Last night about ten o'clock Mr.. John
Seward, of this county, and residing
near Bartlett, was attacked by two white
men on the road, two miles from the
above named town. Mr.. Seward was on
horseback and proceeding homeward,
when the two men sprang from behind
trees and dragged him from his horse.
After being struck several times with
stick Mr.. Seward drew pistol
and snapped it several times in the
faces of his aggressors. They took
the pistol from him while strug-
Cling, but Mr.. Seward succeeded in
drawing a knife and inhicting a heavy
cut across the breast of one of the men.
The wounded man let go at once, uttered
cry of pain and ran back into the
woods, whittier he was followed at once
by his companion. Mr.. Seward caught
his horse Immediately and galoped out
of danger. No cause can be assigned
for the attack, and no suspicious rest
upon any persons in the neighborhood.
They are supposed to be Memphis Com
munists on the war path in search of
plumber. Mr.. Seward did not receive
any especial injury during the fight.
The wounded man was traced some dis
lance this morning by the blood which
flowed from his wound, but up to eight
O clock had not been captured. 1t is
more than probable be will be discovered
to-day by the officers and citizens who
are searching the surrounding country.

Ladies, Hats and millinery Goods.

Ladies ltatS anu Mllilhery NoOurs
The ladies of the city have been
crowding into the Southern Emporium
of Fashion, at No. 247 Main street, near
the corner of Jefferson. The cause of
this display of interest is the fact that
the proprietress, Mrs. NJ. c. Hunter, has
Just received magnificent and well
selected stock of ladies' goods of every
description. The new styles Of hats are
quite attractive. The Penobscot, Prom
enade, English Turban Ga favorite), Re-
gatta, Pisa Madeline and Trianon are
charming in the extreme and deservedly
popular. The bonnets are Of every
STYLE and variety-the Swan, Eugenia,
Cora, Scotch and Borgia being especially
beautiful. Three shades of the same
color are fashionable as hat and bonnet
trimming produces a happy effect.
Mrs. Hunter has magnificent shawls for
fall wear-stripes and bright colors are
fashionable. New scarfs, ties, ribbons
of all shades, and dress trimmings of the
latest fashion, can be found at the EN-
porium. Mrs. Hunter offers to the pub
lie the new Hugo kid glove for ladies
wear, with double button and scalloped
top. This glove is exceedingly fashion
Bile at present, and is regarded as
snnerior TO all others.
