Vincent Colyer's Peace with the
- ..l Apuches.
[From the San Francisco Alta.l

From the San Francisco Alta
We had a long telegram yesterday
morning from Los Angeles announc-
ing the arrival Of Vincent Colyer, and
giving his account of his doings IN
Arizona. He tells us that he met with
success in Arizona. At Camp Apache
he invited upon the reservations "all
the Indians who wished to be ut
peace" and nearly 400. including the
principal chiefs, came in. They took
presents Of food and clothing, declared
that old feuds were at an end, and
sent out messengers to prevent their
brethren from attacking Colyer's party
In their travels. On hls way to Camp
Grant the Apaches came In scores to
meet Colyer, "many very Sick" ac-
cepted presents and medicine, and
gave no trouble. Nearly 200 followed
him to Camp Grant. He sent a mes
senger to the Tonic Apaches to let
them know that they could have peace
If they wished, and If their answer Is
favorable they arc to receive presents
Of food and clothing. He visited some
Of the Apache ohaves, established n
reservation for them, and gave orders
that they should be fed. clothed and
otherwise cared for. We have thus
given the substance of Mr.. Colyer's
statement, and these are the facts on
which he announces that he has met
with success In Arizona" and conveys
the impression that peace Is estab-
Alished. We attach no importance to
his success and have no faith In his
peace. If his flying trip should result
in tho pacitication OF the Apaches, he
would deserve the reputation of hav-
ing attained a success without parallel
in tile Indian affairs Of the United
States. He could truly say that he
came. saw and conquered. He made
a flying trip from East to West,
through a territory 400 miles long, OF
e meridian, and infested over the
greater part Of its area by savages who
have for more than n hundred years
been engaged In active and aggressive
hostillties with tho Spaniards, Next
cans and Americans.
Arizona ls a mountainous region,
and many of its valleys, so far as we
know, have never been visited by
white men. In their undisturbed fast
nesses the Apache women, children
and old men have remained unmo-
Tested, while the braves were out
plundering the ranches and villages.
They extended their incursions for
hundreds of miles from their homes
away to Hermosillo and Alamo-and
misery and death accompanied their
raids. Mr.. Colyer, as the telegram
informs US, speaks highly Of the gen
eral character Of the Apaches. That
they are brave and crafty we do not
doubt, but as to the admirable quail
ties OF their general character we pre-
fer to remain IN doubt a little longer.

The Western Cattle Blindness.

The Kansas City Tins gives the fol-
lowing particulars of this disease as il
has appeared in Jackson county:
ain Independence there are thirty OF
forty-some of them the finest kind Of
auimals-ihat have completely lost theiI
sight. and are now wandering abou. in
pitiful helplessness. In Westport the
disease is spreading rapidly. Along
down the line of the Memphis and Kan
sas City railroad the epidemic is raging,
and in Blue, Sni-a-bar and Lone Jack
townships the reports come up very
gloomily of the ravages of the strange
afflictIon. In Kansas City there are not
less than two hundred blind cows Some
of the dairies have had in the last week
fifteen blind mixers at one time. The
eyes begin to swell a little, lasting gen.
ally from five days to two weeks. As
soon as the swelling commences the eye
also begins to run clear water, just as
though some hard aud foreign substance
was beneath the lbs After the running
ceases, hard white film covers the eye
balls, completely destroying the sight
This disease does not seem to effect the
general health of the COW. Her appetite
is as good as ever. There appears to be
no change either in the quality or guam
tity Of the milk, no pain. no uneasiness
of any kind, no peculiar thirst indicating
fever, and indeed, no symtom that would
indicate disease. The eyes alone suffer
and are destroyed ~.

time Mr.. Miller took his seat at the
farther end of the stage, Captain Travis
being seated in a private box some
twelve PAGES distant. He took aim and
the apple was pierced near the centre.

No poisoning mystery lately has
awakened so great general interest as
tie Wharton-Ketc mystery of Balti-
more. Every few days something ew
regarding it is presented. Here is the
latest despatch regarding it: ...-
Strong circu nstantial evidence of t'ae
guilt of Mrs Wharton will be developed
aud based on the reason why she was
going to Europe 1t is alleged that ,.h4
endeavored to poison the wife of we'll
known merchant of Baltimore. who. with
his family. went to Europe some weeks
since to escape Mrs. Wharton'- con,pan
1t is stated that Mrs Wharton had con.
ceived great affection for this lady's
husband, and that she was preparing to
follow him aboard when suspicious cir.
cuRstances detained her. 1t is believed
that the evidence to be given from the
parties now in Europe will be more con
elusive Of the woman's guilt THIN all the
other testimony put together. -

produce of other townships would be ne

would be higher, land would be higher in

would vanish from the district as night

A Beastly Attack on . Young Girl.

On Sunday afternoon brute III human
shape made an attack on a young girl
about ten years of age in the vicinity OF
the Pennsylvania Lunatic Asylum and
outraged her person. The facts. as we
learn them. are that Emma Crommes,
daughter of Henry Crommes, farmer
in the neighborhood of the asylum, re-
paired to blackberry patch near BY to
pick berries, and while so engaged man
(l) named Henry Morton approached her
and, taking advantage of her being alone
oyerpowered her and ravished her. The
child returned 20 her home and stated the
facts Of the case to her father, who i'm
mediately started for this city and made
information at the mayors Office against
the brute, who was represented to be an
attendant in one of the wards OF the
asylum.
In the meantime Officer Kelly learned
of the transaction. and proceeded to the
asylum for the purpose of arresting the
perpetrator of the outrage Upon find
ing his man. the officer demanded that he
should accompany him to the Mayors
Office. Morton stated that he would, but
that he must first lock the door Of the
ward in his charge; the officer allowing
him to do so he went to the door, opened
it, and jumping inside, slammed it to, and
it having a dead latch. he was safe, the
door being between him and the officer.
1t was fully quarter of an hour be-
fore anything further could be done, and
in the meantime Morton made good his
escape through some of the other doors,
leaving officer Kelly to think upon the
deceitfulness of man and the uncertainty
of trusting too much to prisoners.
The villain, Morton, is described as
follows: Large. heavy man; weighs $50
or 200 pounds; round, full face; dark
brown hair; heavy black moustache;
striped pants short. dark blue sack coat;
barred vest black cloth cap; about >

/ WoRDs like the following from Henry
Ward Beecher, in the Christian Inion
his paper of last week, teach us solemnly
that truth can never be conquered:
The Orange societies should parade
next year without banner LEES, or an
inscription rubbed out They should
not do it on au implied promise that. if
protected for once, they will do it no
more; they ought to move through the
streets of New York until nobody thinks
of molesting them. " hen that time ar
rives it will be matter of no public i'm
portance whether the annual procession
is kept up or not but so long as dog
wass his tongue against an Orangeman' s
procession, or bewildered magistrate
forgetS his duty toward them. the public
good requires their continuance. If the
Orangemen of New York fail next year
to march through the streets of the city
they will beiray sacred duty. By ac
cident they have become the representa-
tives of Il principle which lies at the
foundation of modern civilization. They
do not Just now represent a spent fact in
history, but a living principle. 1t is not
the battle of the Boyne in Ireland. but
the question of liberty in New York"
