Fine Timber Near Camp Grant.

Following is an extract from report of Lieutenant c. P. Rodgers, quarter master at Camp Grant, to the Chief quartermaster of this department. It is we'll worth perusal as showing what fine bodies of timber are in the Arizona mountains, and of detailing other valuable information:
 The new road leads to a dense growth of timber composed largely of white and sugar pine, red and white fir sufficient not only to supply the wants of this post for all time to come, but, it may be said to be in- eXauStible; the soil is rich, lOamy and cOV- cred with luXuriant grasses, besides in- numerable springs of clear cool water, and situated at an altitude of 10000 feet above sea level. When the road is completed, the very finest kind of timber both for lumber and shingles can easily be got out; trees of any and all sizes can be obtained, some measuring as m uch as five feet through and from fifty to sixty feet in length clear of knots. The timbered part of the summit of Mount Graham is from one to three miles in length, and am con fident that no knowledge ot the quality of timber and soil could have existed pre- viOuS to my first visit. The country here abouts exhibits evidences of having at some remote period been inhabited by a race of people differing somewhat in their manner and mode of living, from the na- tiVeS of the present day. For scenery and salubrity of climate, the location of this post cannot well be surpassed, and the only drawback (but this may not be the case every Summer in the great heat of last June the stream dried up, until the July rains caused a plentiful flow again. This is cited merely to show that repeti- ton may be looked for any season; it is a matter however that can easily be remedi- ed by conducting a supply from it's source in the mountain.
 I hope to be able in about fifteen days to have the road so far advanced, that an am bulance can easily be driven to the mon- ument of the Wheeler Exploring EXpedi- ton on the highest point of Mount Gra- ham. Altitude l0,375 feet above sea level. There is nothing on file on this office to show that reservation has yet been laid off or declared. The Wheeler party with that object in view, l believe, surveyed a few days since triangulatiOn of six miles from the flagstaff Want of time on their part, prevented the completion of tn e square.
 l would suggest that hereafter Stipula- ton be inserted in the contracts of parties furnishing hay that none be cut with hOes," anywhere within the limits of the reservation, as in my opinion it destroys the growth of grass if not effectually, at least for years afterwards in places where obtained by this method. The hay now being furnished this post, is declared to be the very best of it's kind.

THE CITIZEN. SA TURDAY, November 8, 1873.
In the M ain Untrue.
The Alta of October 19, has this editorial note:

editorial note:
 The Pima and Maricopa Indians who | have for so many years been the friends Of
 the whites, and assisted them so essential | ly in Subduing the Apache lShmaellteS,
 now that their ancient enemies have been
 subdued, have concluded to give up their old homes and take up a new home to
 them in the Indian Territory. It might be | interesting to know exactly what has been the immediate and powerful cause of this contemplated migration. Some one has a | big job in it, that is certein. The lands they own in Arizona are of the best kind, well watered, and the climate is delicious. If the Government has been made to sup
 ply these Indians with new home, that the favored ones may gobble up their pres ent ones, the plan can be understood very distinctly.
 The Alta is and has been so friend ly and true to Arizona that THE CITI- ZEN reluctantly corrects the errors in the above, which are these: The In dians named had not concluded to
 "give up their old homes and take up ca new home to them in Indian Ter "ritory j" and those best acquainted with their disposition, feel certain that they never will leave their old homes, even should the four or five who have gone to look at the proposed new home recommend the move on their return. The powerful cause" Is no more than an experiment on the part of the Interior Department in pursuance of the Presidents we'll known policy of collecting as many Indians as possible into Indian Terri tory; and it is quite certain that there is neither a big nor little job in the attempt. The lands they occupy are truly of the best kind, but for the reason that they are not well water ed" in all seasons, the delegation of Indians is now being conducted to the new Territory with @ view to find good lands and plenty of water, and possibly get the Indians referred to, to move there in body. We are pretty certain that so far as the land of the Pimas and Maricopas is con- cerned, no one in Arizona cares to "gobble" it, and very few if any at all of our citizens, care whether they go or remain. Although in some measure nuisances and worthless crea- lures, yet very good people are divid- ed in their opinions as to whether the Territory would be benefited or in jured by their removal.

PHENIX, October 31.-During the first part of the week the weather was cool with frosty nights. It has since mOderat- ed. The frost nipped the beans and mel on vines.
 The new road from PheniX to Prescott is completed by the enterprising firm of W. B. Hellings & Go. at their own expense. The stations and distances are as follows: From PheniX to Mountain Wells, l6 miles {; to New River, Is miles; to Agua FriO, 10 miles; to TOwnsend's Ranch, 19 miles, and to Prescott, g miles, making in all, 95 miles from PheniX to Prescott and some what less to the Verde. Grass, water and timber are said to be abundant along the whole road. After Mountain Wells is dug, the greatest distance between water at any one place will be 12 miles.
 The Quarterly Conference of the NJ. E. Church South, was held at the Mesquite schOol-hOuse on Saturday and Sunday last. ParsOn Graves had to stay home and guard his ranch from the Pima Indians. A parson Banning, lately from California, Officated in his stead.
 A report has been circulated here lately that the Pueblo Viejo country is un- healthy. B. F. Patterson, who has just come in from there, denOunces this report as lie, and says that the people who live there never enjoyed better health in their life.
 J. Raenerlen and Henry Wickenberg lately discovered silver ledge fifteen feet wide. They have sent sample of the ore to Silver City, N. M., to have it assayed.
 Bill Smiths mill, at the Hassayampa, continues to give employment to tifty-siX men. The rock is said to be increasing in richness.
 Miss Shaver, the new school teacher, came in from Wickenberg last evening. Some men are busy putting in a floor in the new schOOl-hOuse, which is ali that is lacking to finish it. It is not likely that the house will be ready before the week after next.
 The shipments for the week have been 60,000 lbs. flour and S7 GOO tbs. barley. J.
