More Arrow Points.

Cnder the head of "Apache Treachery," the San Francisco Daily Cau of recent date says:
 All the promises made by the Apache Chiefs in their councils with General Howard, have been violated, those who Knew the treachefy Of these sassges predicted they would be. While being fed the Government, they were murdering the settlers aud committing depredations upon their property. The reservation system has proved meren nursery for the Indians, where they have had convenient opportunities for devisipg war plans, 'and from which they have sent forth bands of warriors to execute them. At no time during their professions of friendship, was there the least suspension of hostilities. Every mail coming from the sparsely settled portion of Arizona has Drought accounts of their horse and cattle steal fng raids, their attacks upon emigrant trains, and their slaughter of unoffending parties. General Crook, for these acts of bad faith, has visited up on them severe blow of retributon, which 1t is said he intends to follow up. The folly Of Peace Commissioners has, by the hostile acts of the sav- ages themselves, been clearly exposed Now, since they so elect, let 1t be war, until they abandon heir deceitful practices.
 The candid, intellectual RepublicGn, of Springfield, Massachusetts, makes the follow ing points in recent number:
 The working of the Quaker policy is very fne- ly exhibited in our news from the frontier, this 0ks of broad.brims and pursy agents deliberating over a treaty between two high and sovereign contract ing parties, while the honorable high joints con- etitutiug the party of the second part quietly slip out back side and consider whether they will scalp the others or skin them, or let them graze until they are little fsttcr! We should like to sec Phil Sheridan's face when he reads that item.
 The San Francisco Chronicle got its telc, graphic account of tue recent affair at Date Creek badly mixed. Gen. Crook did not or der company of cavalry to fire on the sav- ages st Date Creek, after they had "shot :" (stabbed is correct) soldier; neither did he pursue the flying savages into the mountains, with two companies of cavalry. Nor could he have done SO had he wished, as there were not more than 20 cayalrymen around the post, at the time the Government fed savages opened upon the troops. No, Crook tried to prevent the soldiers from firing upon the red murderers, and succeedeain doing so as quick ly as possible, for itrwas his wish to prove to the miscreantsAhat his business then and there was merely to arrest those Indians who mastered the stage passengers. But, he has
 
 tiscd about GO of them, the news of which has, in the words of the Chronicle, given immense satisfaction to all who are sick of the Peace Policy.'"
 The Borderer, of Las Cruces, New Mexico, shows how much sense Vincent Colyer dis played in ordering the removal of Apaches from Alamosa to Tularosa, by saying that, on the second day of July heavy frost de- stroyed the crops of the Indians The lack of judgment in this case, upon the part of Mir. Colyer, will be appreciated when We tell people that whites and Indians informed him that the valley was subject to late frosts, re- gardless of which he gave the order for re- moval, an order which had to be enforced against the wishes of the Apaches, by mili- tary force.
 And, now, the Indians are moro hostile than ever before, but Colyer is safe from their bullets and has no property here for them to steal.
