OFFICIAL COMPLIMENTS.

' General Crook is always prompt in his compliments to officers and men who have done duty deserving them. Here is his General O1ders 32, of date September 27, regarding the suc- cess against the savages Of which we gave an account last week:
 It is with great pleasure the an- nouncement is made of tine complete success of the expedition under the command of Captain J. W. Mason, Fifth Cavalry, against the Apache Mojaves who had concentrated on Muchos Canons, near the head waters of the north fork of the Big Sandy. The command consisted of Com |panies B, (Captain R. H. Mont igomery,) c, (Captain Emil Adam, ] and K, (Second Lieutenant Frank Michler,) Fifth Cavalry, and de- tachment of Hualpai Indians, (under Guide Al Seiber.)
 : They surprised the camp at day light on the morning of the 25th in- slant, killed forty warriors and cap tarad Tonr rannharias S,i+i> 0f women and Childret.
 This brilliant success was owing n 4 great measure, to the energy dis played by the command in climbing pn foot over almost Im fsassa pie canOns, and the efficient aid of our Hualpai allies.
 Captain Mason and the officers and men of his command are hereby com- plimented and thanked for their brill iant success, and our Indian allies as- sured that their efforts to aid in bring Ing about permanent peace to much suffering people, will not be forgotten.

 Considering the high rank and standing of General Schofeld, and age and rank of at least majority of the Court, the above is @ scathing rebuke to the Court, whieh evidently will be some comfort to t4e culprit. The Gen. eral quite plainly tells the members of the Court that ou the evidence, Con- viction should lave been had under the S3d Article of War which requires sentence of dismissal from the ser- vice. General Halleck once told us, with emphasis, that there were no more absurd farces enacted in the name of law than tria!s by courts-martial, and if his words are again verified. one of these sanns courts has done 1t.

 We intended making prospecting detour, and expected to find rich mines before reaching the Plancha de Plata. The enterprise is now abandoned and We go direct to the mines.
 Still later. An OK team driven by one man came over the road and was attacked by five Indians-a remnant doubtless of the band that attacked us. He killed one Indian and wound ed another and got away with his team without loss or injury. We might have, by a little energetic fight ing. lost horse or two, but saved our provisions.
 Reports say no provisions can be had at the Plancha de Plata. The road is dangerous and parties would do we'll to be careful and go we'll armed and travel in force.

BRANDING SOLDIERS.

This and the kindred savagery of marking, have finally been forbidden by law of Congress approved June 10, 1872. For years we have de- nounced the barbarity of the practice, and especially we did so about one and a half to two years ago, when it was carried to fearful and disgraceful limits in this Department. General Crook always disapppoved of it and his predecessor mostly did otherwise. For trivial otfenses, often commit ted under great provocation. good men were thus distigursd and iu- deibly disgraced for life, and the hope of retrieving their good names almost destroyed. Indeed so abhor- rent had this species of punishment become, that Congress felt obliged to forbid it; and General Augur, com- manding the department of Texas, has deemed it necessary to recite in general order the provision of the law which reads:
 That hereafter it shall be illegal to brand, mark, or tattoo on the body of any soldier by sentence of court-martial, and the word 'corporeal shall be striken from the forty-ffth or the rules ana art icles for the government of the Armies Of the United States.

Next morning after travelling some | two miles we were attacked by twenty five to thirty Indians, many of whom were armed with needle guns. The : s-st volley was from the underbrush.
 Cur party being somewhat scattered,
 those in front precipitately fled with
 all possible speed up the road in the direction of Tubac, leaving Judge B. H. Paige and Juan Navera in the
 center, fifty yards in the rear of the
 front; Deputy Sheriff Mcintosh, myt

 back some twenty or thirty yards,
 hastening at the time to close up the
 gap. Castro's mule became unman-

possessed sense and discretion enough to have avoided almost as severe reprimand as the culprit received in pursuance of their pettifogging find ings and sentence. They pronounced this sentence:
 To be reprimanded in General Orders; to be suspended from rank and command for six months; and to be confined to the limits of the Post where his Company may be serving, for the same period.
 General Schofeld in his review of the proceedings, says:
 In the foregoing case it is believed the Court erred in some instances, in giving too great latitude to the accused in his ex- animation of witnesses, and, in one in- stance, in sustaining an objection by a member of the Court to a question of the Judge Advocate. With these exceptions the proceedings are approved.
 The findings and sentence are confirmed. The sentence will be duly executed.
