MILITARY AND INDIAN NEWS, DE
 PERTINENT OF ARIZONA

The cVmpieto report ol Captain Hamilton's, Lieut. Bacnes anu Lieut keilIy's recent op- erations in Southern Arizona, of which we have already printed triegraphic synopsis, may prove vi General iDterest.
 Captain liamiltons force consisted of ai Lieut. London, 5th cavalry, co unlisted men of companes B, II, and |, 5ih cavalry; guides Stanley and Victor, and 29 Indian scouts from White Mountains. The whole de- tachment rationed for 2j days. The section secuted was the very bad country included between the San Carlos and San Pedro riy- CTS from east to west and top of Final range to head or Aravaypa canon from north to south Indians were encountered on the 3tl, 5th, llth 18th and iIth of April, but in such small parties and in such inaccessible posi- tious as to make it almost impossible to sur- prise them. Fourteen Indiana were killed, and thirty captured, besides small number of horses and mules, and some needle guns. One of our men was badly wounded.
 Lieut. London and Guide stanley are very highly spoken of for their services, as are the Indian scouts after crossing the Gila. Capt Hamilton is now out from San Car. los and is probably by this time in Supersti- ton Mountains.
 l Lieut. Bache and Lieut. Reilly found Indian sign near the mouth of pinal creek, April lst, and shortly after captured two squaws, who led them by night to the position occupied by the hostile Indians, who were found in two rancherias in close proximity to each other, but so situated that the only approach was by following up the course of Pinal creek (which at that point flows through q canon with vertical sides). Our sol diers were obliged to wade through water nearly waste deep, and upon surrounding the rancherias were exposed to so keen winters wind that they were nearly frozen to death. However, they managed to pre- serve the position taken until early dawn, when volleys were simultaneously poured into both rancherias, and, few moments after, charge made by Lieut. Reilly's de- tachment. Forty Indian warrlors were killed and nearly 50 women and children captured In the fight the brother of the chief was killed. Two days after, the chief himself, Juan Clishe surrendered, with all bis people, numbering l16. A great quantity oi bows, arrows, lances, baskets, etc, was destroyed, and 8 few improsen brcech loading guns found by our troops in these two villages.
 Lieut. Bache crossed a large, fresh trail made by soldiers and Apache Mohsye lndi- ans, and followed it 10 where rancheria of hostile Indians had been attacded and de- stroyed. (This was the rancheria attacked by Schuyler, in which II warriors were killed.
 Work on the new guard bouse at Fort wbipple, was commenced yesterday. The building is to be of granite, quarried on the reseservation, and, for people who fancy such accommodation will, no doubt, prove very commodious.
 Assistant Surgeon Calvin Dewitt, who served of post surgeon of Fort Whipple about tno years since, has lately been or dered to duty in the Department of the South.

are before us, let us hope that the errors of the past may not be repeated.
 The surest sign that our people have fath in the pormancncy and wealth of the mines can be better understood, that their iaiia rests on pretty frm foundation, when they themselves trusting to no outside aid, bcsla to put in practice, with will, the old snLe, "put thy shoulders to the wheel.
 POLITICS.
 There is considerable speculation as to who will receive the nomination for Delegate at the Phoenix Convention. The present Des- egaic does not seem to be very popular in this section ot Arizona. His seeming neglect of the interests of the people of Mojave coun. ty, his faint efforts for mail facilities, his studied, if not open hostility to direct con. muniration with San Francisco by way of Ba- kersiicld, have certainly, and with cause, ST. raycd the people of this county, irrespective of party affiliations, against him. Rotaton in office is an American institution
 TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
 A terrible tragedy was enacted at Fl De- rado Canon a couple of weeks since a party of men came from Pioche to work on one of the mines in that camp, dispute took place as to a division of the property, which result ed in the death of two men, named King and Jones, and the severe wounding of anotber. Jones is represented as having been . despe- rate character. Alter bis killing of King, Jones retreated to a cave, being badly wounl. ed, and delied all efforts to induce hiIn C come forth. A strict watch was kept up ana three days after party yentured into the cavC and found him dead. KARSAK.
