General Garfield reached this city at 6:25

EmigrntIon from Hungary.

The consul Of the United States at Buda
Pcsth reports to the department Of state that
large omigrations arc taking place among the
Hungarian peasantry. The cmigrants, how
ever are not of that hearty, thrifty character
which distinguishes those from Germany. On
the contrary, they bid fair to become Il bur
den on the country. The condition of the
Hungarian peasautry is of the most abiect
kind They obtain but scanty wages Even
upon the public works, which have been in
auguratcd by the government for the purpose
of relieving their extreme distress, men,
women and children receive but thirteen nine
and five cents per day respectively. These
cmigmns have no money, and by inferior diet
have become very much weakened. Hun
drcds of them have been living OH roots and
grasses. This dcbased mode of life is liable to
engendcr seeds of pestlental diseases among
them, which may not manifest themselves
until after their arrival in the United States.

General Hatch and the Hostile Apaoncs.


A telegram from General Hatch dated Fort
Craig, New Mexico, June Z, was received ut the

the blow struck on the oath by the scouts who
were in advance of the troops, the hostiles
went west into the Black range. Morrow was
ordered to follow them with four companies.
One large body Of Indians, one hun
dred strong, broke south, crossing the road
near Cummings. Morrow's advance followed
these Indians to Mexico. A small party Of
twenty-five went by way Of Goodsite noun
tains to Mexico. There are parties yet in tho
mountains. Morrow struck ono about Cooks
canon, killed two and wounded three, cap
turing their stock, on the 9th. Are now look
ing for small raiding parties; shall drive these
Indians into Mexico. From present indica-
tion they are going there as VIC press them
which is to be regretted without due arrange
ment can be made to follow them up. Havo noti-
fled the Mexican authorities. Cusack reports
the hosliles have left the cast side Of the Rio
Grande.
"Thc Navajoes will not go as tribe on the
war-path. If the Tenth cavalry
comes to this district we can hold all east of
the Rio Grande. We cannot only settle Vic
toria's band, but throw such force to the
