GENERAL KAUTz returned early in the week from a trip to San Carlos and Apache. During his visit to Apache he became affect ed with the malaria which is said to prevail there, and since his return has been quite unwell. At San Carlos he had an interview with Agent Cum, of whom he speaks in very favorable terms, though he fears the experi- ment of manageing the Indians at the reserva- tion, without. the presence of troops will prove hazardous. Still, on Clum's applica- ton, be has withdrawn all the troops from there and broken up the post. IfClum has really acquired such an influence over these wild tribes, in the short space of about eighteen months, as to govern them by mor- al suasion alone, General Kautz is not SO prejudiced or stubborn as to withhold the credit that is due him.

THE SCREW FLY.
A Remarkable Case of Recovery from
 its E6ecfs.

George Hines, prospector, lately arrived
 in the country, was recently attacked with |
 remittent type of typhoid fever beyond the
 Bradshaw mountains, and while in low con- dition bed profusely q: the nose, and being
 much of the time alone and partially insen-
 sible, species of fly, known here as the
 ''screw-fy," found its way up his nostrils
 and deposited eggs in such large numbers
 that in few days, being delirious most of the
 time, his whole head appeared to be filled
 with maggots, three-quarters of an inch in
 length and very plump and fat. Frank R.
 Brooker being his only companion was nec- essarily absent much of the time, and at length realizing the precarious condition of his companion made his way into Walnut Grove, distance of seventeen miles, where be procured a wagon and went back and brought him to town, being on the road sev- eral days. Arriving here without means he was referred to Dr. Kendall, president of the board of supervisors. The Dr. had him talk en immediately to Judge Fleury's place, where room was prepared for him. and went to work on the case. The worms were taken from his nose in large numbers, all alive. The next day, Monday last, more than hundred came out, most of them dead, and on the third day only one came away by violent effort of the patient, and their ravages appeared to cease.
