Indian News.

The citizens of Prescott and vicinity, were considerably excited on Tuesday last, by the arrival of parties from the Verde, who stated that eco Tonto Apaches had left the reserva- ton on Sunday night, and gone to the noun tains. The cause of the skedaddling was unknown, and for three days every one ex- pected to hear of some one being "Modoced." Gen. Crook left headquarters for the Verde, instanter, and further news from the reserya- ton was anxiously awaited. On Thursday, we learned from reliable source that there is no danger to be apprehended. The "bg chief" of the Tontos did not go out with the tribe, and the reason why the Tontos left, was that they were scared; they heard, through their enemies, that Cooley, the in- tsrpreter at Camp Apache, was coming to the Verde with a large force of Coyoteros and San Carlos Apaches, to clean out the Tontos, and so took to the hills. When they left the reservation they went through the large herds of government cattle in that vicinity, without disturbing them, and have since communicated with their chief and dis covered that their alarm was not well foun- ded, and they are all returning to their res eryation. Their chief, Del Che says he has had fighting enough, he wants peace, and will stay on the reservation, and his tribe would not think Of going into the noun taIns were It not for the reports circulated among them by bad men who desire to make disturbance and get the Tontos killed.
 It is a subject for congratulation that these Indians are disposed to return quietly to the reservation, for, had they gone out for hos tile intentions towards the whites, as we 1 feared on first learning of their movement toward the hills, they could have done a great amount of damage to life and property. Their willingness to return is one of the best evidences we have yet seen of the subjuga. tion of the Apaches in this section of country and we hope that those bad men, be they In dians or whites, who endeavor to alarm res. eryation Indians by such stories of raids up- on them by other tribes, or by citizens, may be detected and dealt with as their wicked
 ness deserves. What the people want is that all the Apaches may be kept on reser' vations. It is cheaper and better for th, country, to feed them than to fight them.

Under date of Washington, July p, our delegate in congress wrote us lengthy let ter, from which we extract as follows: J2hR H .Marioa:
 DEAR SIR :--Findng, at the eleventh hour, that various items of Territorial business which had expected to have completed be- fore leaving were not likely to be, and each mail bringing new business, 1 concluded to give up my proposed trip to Europe, although had promised the Centennial commission that would go, and had actually taken my passage for tue 18th inst

 You say l should get semi weekly service on the Hardyville mail route. It cannot be done now. lt vas only by abect begging that got weekly service. When, next year, the route is advertised for the four years let ting may get semi-weekly service. Will try hard for it.
 Albuquerqe route having been neglected so long will not be likely to be put in opera. ton until the four years letting, next spring Mir. Shelby thought it would not pay tc build stations, etc, for s contract of one year and he was probably right. regret all tho delay, but it seems to be unavoidable. have not worked for anything more steadily and earnestly than for this Albuquerque and Prescott mail service.
 From the foregoing, our Territorial read CTS will "see how it is themselves" We won der why Mir. Shelby could take q contract and not be made to fulfill it. But the way, of the P. o. department are past finding out We, in our simplicity, thought that Mir Shelby would, after taking the contract, b' compelled to carry the mail or forfeit cer tain amount of money; neither of whicl things has been done.
 As to begging for mail service on the liar dyville route, we have notion that q demand will soon be made that will fetch it. Mean time, we freely assert our belief that Mir Mccormick has acted conscientiously in thes, matters, although there are those who accus, him of working against our interests iron l rnnfira. nf ,Hto

who, by having trusted them to animals, pro. visions, etc, have enabled them to achieve success in this good way. Jesse Jackson informed us that his claim on the same lode, was looking well. He has abundance of rich rock, and a recent thunder shower afforded sufficient water to enable him to go to crushing.
 Vim. Cole and other miners have sunk GO feet on another claim in the same ledge, and are happy in the enjoyment of big pile of rich rock. All hands agreed in stating that the deeper the mine is opened the larger, richer and better it becomes, which fact, with results of working, is good proof that it is eminently splendid "poor mans ledge"
 Walnut Grove District
 Our good friend, W. c. Collier has just re- turned from a visit to Walnut Grove, and in- forms us that the people there were pros pecting and canyassiDg the feasibility of building more water wheels to run arastras. He has struck upon new plan of working rebelious ores-in which process, sugar, and salt from the Verde, play prominent parts. Should his Walnut Grove tests prove satis- factory, he will start works in Turkey creek, near the Goodwin mine.
 Various other individuals talk of building arastras and we hope they will do so, as in such working lies our only salvation for the present, for, talk as we may, mining is our best, most reliable and trusty resource.
 Smiths mill in Wickenburg district, is crushing away, filling batteries and plate. with the pure stuff. Everything works to a charm, and proprie,or and employees are hap py as clans.
