 Arr.p NOVpmbar 10 1O-E

Following is an official report from an officer of the revolutionary party;
 ALTAR, November 12. 1875.
 To THE GENERAL. IN CHIEF OF THE FORCES OF SONORA: On the 10th in stant, I took this town which was garrisoned with only ten men com manded by Guadalupe Celaya (a) el Garuyo, who immediately fled with about thirty horses which they could gather. I immediately ordered officer Livorio Miranda to follow with fifteen men in pursuit, but he could not over take them as they were going in great haste, and dispersed in such a manner. that only two men were, at last ac- counts, going with the horses towards Magdalena After resting awhile. I started about dark toward La Calera. where as understood, there were forty men who had come from Magdalena. and were commanded by Jesus Ma Martinez and Francisco Redondo who had been at said ranch about two days About daylight on the l1th, l surprised the enemy at said place and. after ex- changing few shots, they fled, leav ing six men dead, two at the foot and four at the top of the mountain, one of them being man from Alamito known as Cuaresma and man Rafael on; also two wounded, one being Con cepcion Aros and twelve prisoners. among them that notorious Lazaro Bracamonte who, as per charges against him, will be shot dead.
 The enemy also left over five hun dred head of horses, forty of which are tame; also three hundred head of cattle, twenty-four saddles, one needle gun, two Sharp's rifles, two Spencer's rifles, six muskets, two pistols and two lances. As the horses and cattle belonged to several parties, they were given 10 their owners and I kept only the forty horses fit for servlce.
 All of which I respectfully report, AGUsTIN GARCIA.
 Early in the week, a skirmish occur red near Santa Cruz, between about forty of the government and ten of the revolutionary parties. No one was killed, unless it be one missing man of the revolutionists. The Santa Cruz people have all their stock in Arizona for safety.
 We hear that individuals are all the time going to the aid of revolutionary forces, who seem to be hopeful of success.

THE Ball to aid In paying of the debt upon the public school-house, is to come off in the new rooms fitted up and tender ed by W. c. sullivan, on Meyers street and adjoining The new brick hotel. Every ar engagement to insure a gloriOusly good time, is made or will be. The ladies are not only doing all they can to make it the great party Of the season, but the ma iority of business men are literally assisting them. All should remember that next Wednesday evening is the time, and that the occasion Is in the interest Of the growing children for whose welfOre and education the grown people are re- sponsible. I; is the evening before Thanks giving day. and therefore the time seems very appropriate for men to exercise a lit- tI, libcrality, and we are sure that nearly all who can spare a few dollars, will do so in inc good cause.

Growing Cheeky if not Rich.

It is certain that Messrs. Wilt, Neugass and Hop Kee are getting up a reputation for being cheeky" if not for being opu- lent. They are engaged in buying, pay- ing for, cooking and selling various kinds of food to the public generally. There was time when these gentlemen sought customers, but we hear they have recent Fly and summarily discharged customers on no other ground than that said CHS .tomers seemed to think thelr whole duty
 was to eat. These customers never com plain of the food, nor that the landlords fail To present proper bills. But there is evidently an obstinate element in "hash '" dealers that can be made demonstratiye
 We ouce saw a man who had punctually patronized hotel for long time, hur- Tiedly come out of ii, swearing that the landlord was the "meanest man he ever knew, and that he should patronize him no longer. Upon inquiry why this appa- rent unfriendliness, the customer replied
 that he had only boarded at the Pen
 rod about eighteen months, and "old
 Adams" (the proprietor) had begun to
 dun him for money! Of course this was too much "cheek in his hash and so a change Of landlords was the result. Now Iit is a somewhat hungry thought with some hotel and restaurant customers,
 that they have found Messrs. Wilt, Neu
 gass and Hop Kee exhibit their mean ness" much sooner than old Adams ''
 of the Penrod ' m Carson, Nevada; ard ! further that these vendors of food dc not releut and invite the insulted and | departed and gentlemanly customers to Ireturn. The customers who seem to
 think it costs something to put food on
 the tables in comfortable apartments, and act accordingly, not only do not object to
 the " cheek displayed by Messrs. Wilt, Neugass and Hop Kee, but go on the
 street and jeerIngly point at this and that dignitied appearing gentleman as having quit patronizing their landlord for reasons hintcd at by us. What this course of conduct on the part of the Tucson land
 lords will result in, is a matter of pleas urable foreboding with good many lunsympathiziug wretches around town.

THE squaw-men " in the Sioux tribes are coming to grief. They have been heretofore fortunate, because ot their Indian wives, in getting Gov ernment rations in the same manner as first-class, high-toned, great big Sioux Indian warrior, but Spotted Tails Indian agent has kicked against any such generous plan on the part of the government, and to obllge him the Indian Commissioner has ordered that no further attention shall be paid to the "squaw men. They will consequently have to hoe their own row or decently give up the ghost National Republican.
