THE INDIAN TROUBLES IN THE
SOUTHWEST.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-General
Hatch telegraphs from Fort Craig,
under date of May 31st, stating that
his four companies are reduced to
about one hundred and the Indian
scouts are in pursuit of the Indians
going to Mexico. There are about
one hundred warriors in the party.
The Indians are probably Mexican
Indians, and not Victora's main
force, as supposed by Lieut.. Nancy,
as they have many wounded. The
General, in concluding, says; May
cath them before they reach the line.
My orders are such that I can follow
them no further, and must look out
for Indian bands in the mountains
here, Cusack, with four companies
(120 mem, is doing hard scouting and
good work east of the Rio Grande.
Casualties in my command should
give me fifty Indian scouts; more
valuable now than four times the
number of recruits. The surprise
made by the scouts on the oath is
more serious to the hostiles than at
first supposed. The following is
Lieutenant Maney's telegram, who
commands the scouts:
FORT CoMMINGs, May 31.-The
trails lead from the west side of
Cooks canon straight for Mexico for
Florida mountains. The hOstilts
are making for Mexico for the benefit
of the wounded. The trail does not
seem to consist of as many as form
erly. | think the trail was made by
VictOria's party almost entirely,
GENERAL MAHONE's POLITICAL
PLANS.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-The fol-
lowing is an extract from a letter
received here to day from a warm
personal friend of General Malone:
General Malone will not express
his views or preferences in national
affairs to anyone. The convention of
the Readjusters' party of Virginia
will be held July 7th, and until that
convention-speaking fer a majority
of the people of Virginia-shall pro.
claim the policy of the party, its
leaders wisely see fiji to keep their
Own.counsels. When that convention
assemblies, it will speak in no uncer,
tain tone, you may be assured and
whatever policy is then and there de-
clsred to be proper, wise and bensfi-
cial to the State, will be maintained
on every stump in Virginia by the
champions of readjustment, and the
people will take heed of their advice.
This is the position of the Readjus-
tiers to-day the party is in a thorough
state of organization, and the con-
vention, will be largely attended. To
our people the Presidential question

You can see almost daily in some
