We think The Sentinel will--and req sonably toO-be much improved under the new and stronger management.

Indian Situation Southward.

Lieutenant Fucker, Sixth Cavalry and a company of Indian scouts were in the vicinity of Crittenden on the 18th. MT. Maloney informs us that the Lieutenant informed Thos. Hughes that if he found a trail of Indians, he would follow it 10 the end. no matter where or into what country il led Our reports justify the belief that he will continue his efforts with perseverance and good faith, that he will be successful. and this impression he Jeff on the exposed settlers. The settlers expect another raid by the hostile Indians about the full of the moon, and if they do appear then, Lieutenant Ruc&er will give them such a reception as will likely iniuce some of them to remain on the ground and those who get away to stay away for all time As the situation now appears over that way, there is strong hopes that the hostile Indians will be The only sufferers hereafter.

in the matter. If Mr. Hardy has had any serious thought, since the attempt
 cd fraud in his behalf by the Yavapai Board of Supervisors, to try for seat in Congress, he should heartily thank Secretary Hoyt for sparing him the expense and certain disappointment, for he surely will never undertake the lawless and hopeless effort of busting NIT. Stevens. Whatever efforts others may have made with some apparent success in his behalf, he has surely too much common sense to personally take up the unworthy and impossible task inaugurated by majority of the Iava- pal Supervisors.

THE TEAPOT MEDIUM STILL IN JAIL.

In the case of Flint, the man whose Wlfe says
he gave "sprtual" answers to sealed letters by means
Of unsealng teapot, Judge Lawrence has passed on
some important questions Mrs Flint sued for divorce
and amOny. Flint served and appeared some con-
testing action was taken for him, but he ultimately
allowed Judgment of divorce to be taken against MIN oy
default The Judgment included an order that he pay
amony. He did not pay 1t, deemed in contempt OF
court and is now in jail His present application IL
based on several grounds the chief being that owing to
his bgamy, the court ought not to have held tne
plaintiff to be his wife have decreed her amony.
Judge Lawrence holds that If Flint wanted TO set mp
such defense he should have done 1t in the action the
plaintiff up all the necessary facts TO give the court
lrsdction-marriagc, grounds of divorce &c.-and he
appeared in the action without denying them He thus
subjected himself 10 the jurisdiction Of the court now
ever often he had been previously married, ana must
abide its Judgment. AS the order for alimOny relates
merely the payment OF money, there was no need OF
the machinery for discovering his dsobdence required
in "A different class OF cOntempts. As 10 the point
