MILITARY ITEMS.

Colonel !. II. Nelson, U. s. raynsstcr, and Col W. R. Jones, of the Inspector Generals Department, arrived at Fort Whipple over the new road from Camp Apache, Cyia amp Verde on Sunday last. This side of z inset Crossing, on the Little Colorado, they met Mexican train which, half an hour before, had been attacked by Pinal Apaches, one man killed, and number of yoke oxen driv- en away. The party halted and assisted in the burial of the unfortunate Mexican, and came on the rest of the journey without further adventure. Col. Nelson states tha, the route they came makes a saving of twelve days in time over the old trip, and that when a little more labor has been expended on the road it will be as good as any road in the country.
 We need through mail over this route from Albuquerque, New Mexico, to Los An geles ria Prescott, Williamson Valley, Camp Hualpai X IIardyville. The settlers demand it, the military need it, General Stoneman recommended it in his report, and the Ari- zona and New Mexico delegates in Congress continually urge its establishment. It will be short route, and soon must be a popular i one for travel across the continent. Paymaster Nelson left on Tuesday morning to go to Camp Date Creek and thence to Iiualpai; Col. Jones started, Wednesday morning, for Huslpai direct, to meet Colonel Nelson there. Col Nelson mani tested much interest in all pertaining to the new mines in Bradshaw, which have been discovered since his last trip and took with him quite an assortment of such samples of ore from different lodes as could be collected around town on monday afternoon.
 Lieut.. Crawford, from Camp Verde, and Lieut.. J. B. Thompson, from Hualpai, with Dr. Malcolm, were in town since our last issue.
 Col Van Vliet has gone to Drum Barracks, California to inspect cavalry horses for Ari- zona service.

The Great Sexton" Mine.
MARTINEZ VALLEY, Arizona, ,
 May l6, 1871. {

To he Editor of he Arizona Miner:
 That the working of the Great Sexton mine will be success, there is now but lt- tie doubt. Most all of those interested in the mine are having more or less work done on their claims, and the Vulture Mining Co have five men sinking on the lode, and talk ing out rich ore, which they are going to crush in their mill, and Mir. Frink is pushing the road, from the mill to the mine, to con- pletion, all of which is the very best evidence of their faith and confidence in the Sexton.
 believe it is their intention, should the ore pay Us we'll as there is every reason to believe it will, to erect mill near the mine, there being water in sufficient quantities for that purpose.
 A party of miners from the new district on Kirkland Creek, brought in some beauti- ful specimens from gold and silver lodes re- gently found by them near the French lode, Of which previous mention was made. Be sides gold specimens, they brought in some very rich silver orc from ledge which they found. lt is undoubtedly a very rich district.
 Messrs Bryson X Shell will be in Prescott, shortly, when they will show you some sam ples of their rock. Wood, water and grass are plentiful in this region and are accessible to wagon. $.

CAPTAIN MOORE

Returned from the scene of Lieutenant Cush- ing's engagement with the band of Cachise. on Friday. He found the bodies of the killed-consisting of NIT. Simpson, Lieuten- ant Cushing and one soldier-which he caus- ed to be buried. No men ever fought more brayciy for their lives than did these. and the soil of Arizona has never covered the remains of two better men than Lieutenant Cushing and MT Simpson. The latter, brave, cener- ous to fault, conyersant with almost all the languages of Europe, n thorough mineralocist man of rare natural attainments. and crea. practical experience iR working mines-his loss to Arizona is such as may never be re- placed.
 The career Of Lieutenant Cushing. in Ari- zona, IS well known throughout the length and breadth of the Pacific Coast. He. too. has left void which but few of his CO., professionals are competent to fill.

TucsoS, Arizona.
 May l3, 1871. To the Editor of he Ari:oad MiRer:
 Considerable excitement on either side of the Indian question still continues. Three distinct views of this everlasting Indian i'm broglio are adhered to by the different fac tions of Southern Arizona The first view which is that of the great majority, is, that the killing of those subsidized murdcrcrs and thieves, near Camp Grant, constitutes an act which is well worthy of imitation elsewhere throughout the Territory, and which should be repeated every time that opportunity offers the second view is that entertained by a small portion of the community, prin- cipally military officers of good, sound judg- ment, that the Camp Grant thieves deserved n" little killing" and "do nit care conti- mental one way or 'other,n so long as they have not been drawn into the affair and the third view is that entertained by the occasional commander of Camp Grant, that the killing of. those (his) dear, good Indians, is crime that appeals to the laws of men and exhorts the interposition of higher laws for ven geance-quick and terrible vengeance-upon the heads of those who maliciously snatched this solid treasme from the hands of the quar- termaster. He has been entreatcd to keep on his coat.
 EMULATION.
 Pursuant to the Papago victory over the Apaches, the Pima "war drum" was beat. and four hundred warriors equipped for the field. The Papagos had gained great vic tory over the Apachcs, and a. warriors they regard themselves equal to the Papagos. Ac- cordingly, on Monday last, they dropped in at Camp Grant, on their way, ostensibly, to the White Mountains. After brief survey of the surroundings, and flying glance at the Apache camp-where 1j0 thieying reds sat around gambling, among themselves, for the effects of their last white victims. and protected in the enjoyment of this pastimc by Uncle Sams guns-the Pmas took their departure, quickly followed by q large spying party of the aforesaid gamblers The Pimas soon learned that they were being dogged, "iN 0thN |" tp cut OH tue retreat Of the Apaches, q ta Von Molke. This piece of strategy proved entirely successful, and soon the Apaches were surrounded and killed oil, with the exception of four active bucks, who were taken to the Pima Reservation to furnish little amusement for the next feast day. have been informed that the occasion al commander before referred to, sent an order to the Pimas to bring back their prisoners, and that the Pima Chief sent back reply to Occasional Chof to the effect that his very modest request could not and would not be en- tertained at Pima Headquarters. q feel like giving that Pima "Capitan good many ounces of tobacco, and will certainly pledge him in glass of "Old Bourbon" !" within the next two hours)

MARr1NsDURG, W. VA, May 30th, 1871.
At a meeting of the Official Board Of
the NJ. L. Church, held at s o'clock this
7. NJ. the following preamble and res
olutions were unanimously adopted :
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almighty
God, in his providence, mercy and good
ness, to remove by death, after long
illness and suffering, from earth and its
cares, our beloved sister in Christ, Mrs.
ELLEN LEE LEECH, wife Of our esteemed
pastor, Rev. S. V. Lcech, therefore,
ResoIrsd, That in her dcceasc, our
beloved Pastor in his great bereave-
ment, and that of his now motherless
children, have our most profound and
heartfelt sympathy.
ResoIcpd, That the Church has lost
from its membership, one, pure, true
and good one whose christian and
womanly virtues strengthened and con-
s6crated her home, life and the bonds
which she was bound by the faith Of
Christ to the Church.
Rsoived, That in humble submission
to the grace and will Of God, which
soothed and comforted our departed
sister through her lingering illness, and
sustained her when entering the Valley
of the shadow of Death, and which en-
abled her to triumph in her last hours,
we place on our minutes this testimony
of our affection for her womanly worth
and christian virtues.
R'scIrsi, That the Secretary be in
structed to communicate our sympathy
to the bereaycd family, and enclose a
copy Of these resolutions, and that he

IN NIEMORIAN.

In our notice of deaths will be found
the few lines conveying the information
of the death of Mrs Ellen Lee Leech,
beloved wife of Rev. 5. V. Leech, Pas
tor of the VI. Z. Church, of this place.
Unlike men, women have not the OPP
portunity OF writing their names high
upon the scroll of Fame, or of perform
ing great deeds, whose memory will
live in the popular heart. Ola woman,
and especially Of 4 wife, there can be
no greater tribute than that she made
home happy. Of a woman, and espe-
cially of mother, there can be no dear
er memento, than that she was a kind,
loving mother for that memento is
not extinguished while there is life in
the breast OF her offspring. OF Mrs.
Leech, both these things can truthtully
be said Of her christian virtues, OF
her patience and fortitude, and Of her
great undying faith in Christ, six years
Of painful illness bear full witness. OF
her realization OF her hopes of blessed
Immortality, there can be no doubt.
Deceased was born in Shepherds
town, Jefferson county, and was the
daughter of the late Benjamin I. Town
er, Esq, OF that place, and was in the
35th year of her age. In addition to
her husband, she leaves four children to

titul and impressive sermon-llch IN

as to the Christian character of the de
ceased was delivered by Rev. VIM. II.
Ward, Of Grace ST. NJ. f. Church, Bal
timore The deceased, believing she

Mr.. Ward to 90 with her body to her
home in Shepherdstown, and there tell
