THE PIzEA INDIANS .

X correspondent writes to the Bull lettn, under date of the filth: \ feud of many years standing, and which cropped out few months ago in the killing, at a 'stiswin frolic" in the Cuajete country, of three Pima Indi- ans of BIackwater village, culmina- ted today in an attack by the men of the above village, to the number of seventy five, on the braves of the vii lege of San-tan, (the women and chiI- dren having been removed last night and resulted in the killing of three of the San-tan Indians and the wound ing of one, and the wounding of two of the Blackwater men. The mortal
 f4y would have been much greater had it not been that the Indians oi San-tan used the school-house as q fo-tifcation. Although there is con siderable wai!ing or crying by the squaws, 4here is a general feeling Of satisfaction prevailing this people, in
 hopes that as three of the San-tan Indians were killed 10 aYenge the death of the three Blackwatey men, as above stated, peace and goodwill may be theresult. These villages gre twelve miles apart The Indians were armed, partly with firearms, but more generally with bows and arrows.
 The following appeared in the Bd- tett5, few days previous to the above :: Having full river this season, the Pima Indians have in considerable numbers returned 10 their villages on the lower part of their reserve on the afiTa, deserted last year from the eX- irene dse8tl4. and either have plant ed or are engaged in so doing. with excellent prospects 9f . plentiful har- vest.

The New York Sun says: Hidden, surrounded by a bureau of nincom- poops, can never become president of the United States. If Tilden is iden- tified, as in the common speech oi the people he allows himself to be, with such an illogical, illegal and outrageous crusade is Edward Cooper is making against that patriot sol dicr. General Smith, we think Tilden will be greatly lowered in tic public estimation. We regard Tilden as statesman of great ability. We are not aversc to supporting him for re- election to tic presidency. At the same time we are just as free to sup port any other candidate. We are equally opposed to the arbitrary one man power, whether it be named John Kelly or Samuel J. Tilden. We think the last vestige of the bureau of nincompoops, whether il be the literary bureau, which seems to be about dcfunct, or the municipal bureau, headed by Edward Cooper, should be abolished, before 1'ilden can hope 10 come very near to tue great heart of the great American people.

The Cfftsea is permitted 10 make inc following extracts from a private letter written by Gov. 9IcCorlnick to q friend in Tucson. The letter bears date Washington, February 24th -'Gov. Stafford and many others have written me concerning the extension of the Pima and 1Taricopa rescrva- ton. My daily mail, Of late, has been largely composed of Arizona letters, and have every reason to be- lieve that sm not forgotten in that territory. I have had a serious in terview with secretary schurz and he has promised to consider the rcserva- ton matter very carefully and to favor a reduction of is limits if injustice is likely to be done to settlers. Yes terday mornings paper announces that Gov. Fremont is to come here at the request of inc legislature. need hardly assure you that I will co- operate wiih him in all measures for the benefit of the territory"
 Referring to the allusion made by Gov. 3fcCormicl, to the change in the order withdrawing lands for the Indians in Salt River valley, the Citizen ventures this prediction: That whatever change is made will be made in pursuance of and in accord ance with the recommendation of Inspector Hammond. and that no change will be made, no matter who favors and urges it, in opposition to the inspectors report in the prem i-a-

TIE Enterprise says that as soon as the railroad is completed to Mari copa Wells there will be grand ex- cursion from California, in which some of the wealthiest and most in ffuential men of the state will parti- cipate, and that it is the intention of Mir. Croeker and others Of the C. P. R.

For heavens sake. don't let il get into the papers" is the first cry of a person caught in q mean scrape. Keep it out of the papers and it is ali right No matter how contemptible or dishonest the position may be, or how much reason the offender may have for shame, remorse and contri- ton, if the circumstances can be kept from tie "cormorants of the press, as the people who have good reason to be afraid of newspaper re porters sometimes cali tlem, hc is tranquil and happy. We are DO champion for that extreme license of the press that is sometimes displayed, but we have noticed that the ones who cry out the loudest against newspaper disclosures are generally those whose own lives and acts would bear very close inspection. People who live clean, straightforward lives have little to fear from the news papers.

Terrible prairie fires recently oc- cured in Republic and Cloud coun- ties, Kansas- They extended over an area ten miles long and three miles wide, and swept everything before them. It is said that about one hun dred houses were consumed; also, large quantities of grain, farming i'm plcments, hay and other property The winds were so high and the fires so fierce and hot that the inhabitants were obliged to take refuge in under ground habitations. One life is re ported lost-NIrs Borversox, who was burned to death while attempting to release some horses from a burning stable Several other persons were severely injured. The loss is esti- mated at S40,O00.

We endorse the following from the Los Angeles Herazd: 1t is small won- der that the Southern Pacific Railway has been pushed forward with such marvellous celerity when it is rcmem- bered that the work of construction has been in the hands MT. Strobridge This gentleman bears the distinction of having graded more road and laid ard tied more rails in 2 single year, month, week and day, than any con tractor in the wide world. He is now experimenting the labors of twelve hundred men; he has, in his time, had ten thousand men under his con trol, and his greatest achievement was the completing of ten miles of track in a single day. Constructive exploits like these do not enter into the domain of controversies between the railways and the people, and they are certainly deserving of note, as showing to what extremes executive ability may be carried"

The idea of cutting a ship canal
through the lsthmus of Panama is at
least three and half centuries old.
Philip II of Spain had route carefully
surveyed by some Flemish engineers, but
never pushed the matter Peter Heylin,
an English writer, in a geographical
treatise, published in Oxford in the early
part of the seventeenth century, observes
that "many have motioned to the Coun-
ell of Spaine the cutting of navigable
channell through this small lstmus, 50
to shorten our common voyages to China
and the Moluccoes. But the kingsof Spaine
have not hitherto attempted it partly
because if he should imploy the Ameri-
cans in the worke, he shoul loose these
few of them which his people have suf-
fered to live; partly because the slaves
which they yearly buy out of Africa doe
but suffice for the mines and sugar
houses; but principally lest, the passage
by the Cape of Good Hope being left,
those seas might become a receptacle of
Pyrats" And lie gravely argued, as a
concluding reason why the canal had
never been constructed, that God is "not
pleased at such proud and naughty en-
terprises."
