 ARRIVED AT LAsT.-The mail wagon which arrived here this morning brought us three copies different dstes-of the Tucson C:;i- zen, also several New Mexico papers and many Oid letters from Southern Arizona. Better late than never.
 Strange 10 say, it brought no San Diego papers. As most Of the news published in these three Citizens has appeared in our tele- graphic dispatches but little, if any, itemiz' ing is necessary
 The letters are, in the main, devoted to the wet weather, the Indian break and to flashing the agents of mail contractor Grant for neglect of duty. All agree that the mails could have been carried regularly had these agents cared to do so.
 A day or two ago, as Mr George Lount was using hatehet on piece of wood, he turned his eyes from off his work, and, instead oi driving the hatchct into the wood, drove 1t far into one of his feet, cutting it badly. He is now unable to work.
