liVerAnce was nish; the uHy WueH 'SS P""N'
 of tb. Aparhes was Co be broken; and Arl-
 zona set free to the industrious people wh"
 longed to come here and share her good
 things with us. We said to ourselves: " Pretty soon, we will be free to go where
 we please, in our Territory, without fear ot
 mocstation from Indians. No more will we
 have Co stand guard over our stock and other
 property; no longer will VIC have tn send
 crowd of men along with every wagon and
 team; no longer will we have to blow and
 hoe while wcighei down with arms and am
 munitions no longer will our miners and , pro-pectos be force 10 work and move
 around m parties. in order to protect them
 selves from Indian as>assns. Matters will 1 soon be all right, and then VIC can reimburse | ourselves for loses heretofore sustained; the | Territory will progreSs right along; our hock'
 and herds will increase; we will produce e'- erything needed by civilized man, and nsughi
 but uur own folly can impede our progress, ur make us unhappy" S, to', thought ihouS-

 been ryetted upon our Territory, and who were preparing ,o come here when Grants fatal order to "cease hos,iliiies against tue Apaches," was flashed across the continent Disgust and despair then took the place Ui hope and buoyancy, and al this writing. the l feeling here and elsewhere against Grant and | The QuAkers is anything but genial But, | that is D, ilher hcre nor there, as Grant and
 the Quakers have the whip hand of us and ] tke country, and mean we fear, to drive bo b
 to desperation. Our only hope IS that they
 will be halted in their unwise, venal course,
 by the voire of the people, whose aid and
 kindly offices we implore in this our most
 pressing hour of need, when it has been de
 cided upon, by the megnates at Washington,
 to abandon all that has been gained fron the Apaches, to call off the dogs of war; and
 leave tue white citizens of this Territory to the tender mercies ut the hostile savagrs.
