rpr TIM, INDIANS oN rnr wAn-rAru,

The following dispatch has,been received at Military Headquarters:
 Marieopa, March 6.--ls''.
 arrived here at 4 o'clock this afternoon from what have been able to gather, the pinas believe that the two Indians taken to Pho,nix on the 1sth ultimo, have been hang cd. and on that account are much excited and incensedl against those who, they be lieye caused the troops to come here and make the arrests. Mir Moore and the tele- graph operator arc very uneasy about the matter | cannot vet tell how much cause there k for this feeling. Mr. Moores party at work at a well, twenty-five miles west ot here. were fired upon and driven away day before yesterlsy. l will report again to- marrow X. NJ KESDALI-
 First Lieut.. 9th Cav. Com. Detachment.
 The above telegram betrsys bad state of feeling between the whites and the PimaS, a tribe that has hitherto been friendly and neaceahle. IL is not certainly known here what haS become of the two Indians taken to Phenix on d charge of shooting Clancy Ii was reported that tltey had escaped, but as they have not returned to their tribe, the Indians, as well as the Military, fear they have been fouliy dealt with. Ii IL be true that they have been taken out and hanged, those who did so have done grievou> wrong and stirred up trouble in quarter where 1t was just as easy to have had peace and at the same time administered the proper pun ishment to the prisoners, if found guilty. It is always better to let the law take its course, even if it is little tariy, than to endanger the lives of citizens by enraging an ignorant vet otherwise quiet people. It may be that these two prisoners have escaped. and arc afraid to return to their people, but the in dications are that they have been sent to the happy hunting grounds
 We may be able to say more concerning this matter tomorrow.
