Letter from Agent Jelord's Clerk Mexican Captive Recaptured from the Apaches.

CHIRIcAHUA INDIAN AGENCY, ARI- IONA, July 6, 1073.-Information was brought to this agency night before last, by some of our Indians, that the band of Natiza had captive boy at the Chiricahua Mountains, whom they had just brought from Sonora or Chi huahua. Captain Jeffords lost no time in proceeding to their camp to take measures for his recovery. He found the boy at the above mentioned rancheria, in the possession of an h. dian named Heronimo, and without any ceremony took possession of him and brought him to this place. The Indians demanded ransom for the boys release, but they did not find Captain Jeffords one of the ransoming kind as I have said, he took the boy from them without ceremony, and they will have to charge whatever ransom they demanded. The boy gives his name as Panteleon Ignacio Rocha; is about eight years old, and very intelligent for his age. He says he was taken from the town of Con- cepcion, in the State of Chihuahua, at which place he has father and mother living. His fathers name is Nonicio Rocha. He also says that he was taken while herding cattle; that the party of Indians who took him numbered about twenty; that they did not take any of the cattle he was herding, but took four horses fur thermore that they did not bring any of the stolen horses upon this res- ervation; that the Indians divided before they came here; that portion of them having the horses keeping on towards the north. He had been with the Indians about eleven days when he was taken from them by Captain Jeffords. Respectfully Yours,

MR. P. R. FULLY has shown a certifc cate of an assay of ore made June IS, by Charles Feltz, of Cerbat. The ore was taken from an abandoned mine some forty five miles from here and due west of Point of Noun tain station. The assay shows the ore to contain S70 6S in silver without a trace of gold. In the locality of this mine, are numerous others upon which many years ago, an immense amount of work was done. Long shafts, tunnels and other evidences exist now. We understand ore like that assayed by MT. Feltz, is abundant. Just now considerable interest is being manifested in these aban doned mines, and we have no doubt many of them are very valuable.

LAST Sunday, Drum Williams stole four pistols from R. N. Leatherwood and started eastward, and MT. L. was so dis satisfied with Drums proceedings that he followed and overlook the latter about twenty miles out, enjoying nap in the brush. MT. L. made such persuasive dem onstrations on the sleeper that he con cluded to return to Tucson, and by the assistance of Justice Osborn, he was ad- mitted to the county jail to await the ac- ton of the next grand jury. According to report, Drum is given to theft and has twice before rested in jail therefor, once for stealing goods from c. T. Hayden & Go. He is little anxious to know if his handling the pistols amounts to grand larceny.
