Mormons Leavo Nevada and Settle in Arizona--Exploration of the
 Colorado, Etc.
HARDYvtLLE, Mohave County, Arizona, !
 Tphruary lg. 1871.

HARDYviLLr, Mohavc County, Arizona,
 February l0, 1871.
 To ke Eiitor of he Arizos0 Miner:
 There is Mormon stopping with mc, who tells me that the Mormons have nearly all lefc St. Thomas; that the Sheriff of Lincoln county, Nevada was down to collect taxes of the Mormons, and that the taxes fright ened the Mormons. o. D. Class and partners tax was over four hundred dollars, and as these people had not paid tax (except tith. ing to tue Mormon church) it looked hard to them.
 The people of Prescott will hardly pity O.. D. Class if he is taxed upon the lily gotten money that was paid him for his vote n re- moving the capital from Prescott to Tucson. Our Mormon friend tells me that Brigham Young has been living at St. George during the past winter; also, that the Mormons that left St Thomas have settled in Arizona, at Q point on the Colorado river opposite and be- low tho mouth of the Little Colorado river. They have built two forts, one at each of the crossings of the Colorado river, where the Nsvajos and other thieving Indians cross with stolen stock. Probably these two set l clements ou the ColorUdo river will soon con tain as many or more inhabitants as did St. Thomas.
 These settlements are in the right place, and will materially help settle the Indian question. The people of Arizona will rest quiet and, l am sure, not tax and disturb them, but will only wish that other settle ments may be started in similar places
 There are now at Camp Mohave three boats of light draft, and learn that soon corps of scientific men, in the employment of gov ernment, will start from Camp Mohaye 10 ex- plore the Upper Colorado and Green rivers They are to start about the first of March Professor Powell is reported to be on the Colorado river, coming down with a corps oi | scientific men. The two parties, I believe, arc 10 join and work a while in Arizona. Will soon learn more of this matter. H.
