 CAPT. HAMILTON of H Company, 5th Cavalry, returned with his company and twenty-one Apache scouts to Camp Low ell last Monday evening. The news was brought here April of the massacre at old Camp Grant by the ApacheS, and Capt. Hamilton and his company left the same day for the scene of the outrage. On arriving he buried the victims of Apache atrocity and proceeded to the San Carlos, and since that time he has been constant ly in the field and has rendered most val uable service. His command has consist ed of twenty-two of his own (H Co.) with an average of twenty Apache scouts. and portion or the time he has had with him from ten to twenty soldiers from B, F, l. and NJ Co.'S, 5th Cavalry. He and his command have travelled over 1000 miles through the most rugged mountains to be found on the continent. They have taken one hundred and twenty prisoners, and have killed twenty warriors, and have had six engagements with the ApacheS. At one time Captain Hamilton and Colonel Randall were very nearly struck with bullet that passed them and wounded @ soldier just behind them. On his return he came through the Santa Catarina mountains and found some deserted wick cups and two dead Apaches, one of them being minus head. It is supposed that the headless one was ChuntZ, one of the doomed, mentioned in another column, If this should prove true, then we may safe ly calculate that the war with the San Carlos Apaches has ended, and we hope and believe forever. The lessons they have been taught will have lasting ef- feet on them as we'll as all other Apaches in the Territory. Had this practical com- mon sense method been adopted twelve years ago, of punishing the guilty for their crimes, hundreds oflives would have been saved as well as millions of money; but instead of that, old granny peace talks were adopted and flourishing reports were made to glorify some saintly peace com missioner and the work of death went steadily on, We look upon this last cam paign as the most thorough and complete yet made ln Arizona, and iu the brave ofh, participated in it are deserving of the last ing gratitude of the people of Arizona.
