Shooting at Ash Canyon '.

Sunday afternoon a man named Jack Smith was brought to the county hospital from Ash Canyon, in the Huachucas, sui fering from two serious wounds, one of which may prove fatal. On account of the suffering of the wounded man, It was very difficult to glean any facts about the case, but from other sources we learned that the inhabitants of Ash Canyon were on a general jamboree on the Fourth, and that man named Jack Cade shot Smith. It seems both men were pretty drunk and dispute arose between them, in which Smith was decidedly the aggressor. He abused Cade nearly all the afternoon, and went so far as to strike him in the tace without his "cussedness" being taken up. Finally he drew knife and made cut at Cade, when patience ceased to be virtue, he drew his pistol and fired twice, one bullet entering the abdoman near the navel and the other taking effect in the right arm. As stated above, he was brought to the hospital ou Sunday, and is now undergoing treatment by Dr. Goodfellow. The wound is a serious one, and in conse- quence of the length of time elapsing be- tween the shooting and surgical treatment may prove fatal.
 Cade was immediately arrested by Depu ty Sheriff Sperry and taken to Charleston. He had an examination yesterday before Justice Burnett, and a number of eye witnesses of the transaction were examined. The testimony was in accordance with the facts stated and the prisoner was promptly discharged.

The Mexican Raiders.

MT. A. B. Smith, who was until recently Customs Inspector at Arivaca, has re- moved to Tucson. The Star man inter. viewed him on Friday regarding the recent raid made by Mexican guards and the kill. ing of an American citizen in this Terri tory, within ten miles of the line. Mir Smith said:
 About month ago four Mexican guards met four Mexican smugglers about fifteen miles this side of the line Both parties travelled together until reaching spot about nine miles from Sonora. Here they camped for the night. The guards were, of course we'll armed, while the smugglers had no weapons, excepting one who car. ried an old gun, The morning after the camping the guards proposed going on, when the civilians objected, laughingly saying they saw no need of accompanying the Mexican soldiers: they were on Ameri. can soil. Whereupon, without any hostile demonstration on the part of the supposed smugglers, the guards fired upon the quar- tette, killing the carrier of the gun and wounding another one in the leg. They tcok the live men prisoners, conveying them 10 Altar, where they were tried and acquitted of the charge made against them.
 The Inspector further remarked that it was the habit of Mexican guards to cross the line and interfere with the rights of people on this side. They even entered the houses of American citizens north of the line, and, protected by their uniforms, searched for smuggled goods. This is we'll known 10 have been often repeated.
 These outrages were becoming so ire quent that Deputy United States Marshal Evans was informed ot the facts and it is presumed that he will take some action in the matter. The Mexicans have not less than three hundred men guarding the frontier for distance of two or three hun. dred miles, while our Government has but two men between Calabasas and Yuma

COchise County Census.

We print below & table containing the full returns of the population of Cochise county, as made by the late census. There IS pretty unanimous feeling among the best informed citizens that the census is imperfect, and Cochise county not awarded more than two-thirds of her actual popu- lation. It will be noticed that Galeyville is not mentioned in the table, but the Cen. sus Marshal explains that, that place is in. cluded in Morse's Mill and vicinity. Ben son, Contention, and settlements in that vicinity show up pretty well, but the other towns in the county look little short Charleston, undoubtedly, has more than given by the enumerator:

Notes from Russell.

RUSSELL, July II, 1852.
 EDITOR EPITAPH: After long rest, l again send you few notes from this camp:
 Everything incident to prosperous and thrifty camp we have here, and our little town, through the energy and enter prise of its merchants and business men, is almost acquiring metropolitan facilities for cheap and good living.
 The shipment of bullion by the car-load continues, and only two days since the Russell Company shipped two carloads, that company, as yet, being the only bull lion producer of the camp Other companies as we'll as individuals here ex- pect soon to have their mines on pro- ducing basis.
 The Peabody mi.e has never shown to better advantage than now. Every tunnel drift and upraise IS yielding in great abundance, and ore of high quality The winze being sunk from the 110.fOot level is down between 15 and 20 feet, and shows all in ore of more superior grade than before in this mine; native copper showing in liberal amounts, and the ore supply in the winze wlthoutslimit
 Samples for the Denver Exposition from this camp are about ready for shipment, with some already shipped, and the camp expects to present at Denver collection of no small merit. Mir. Thos R. Sorin has been elected to represent this district, and we hope to make available to our interests his superior capabilities as commissioner to Denver
 This camp and district, Mir. Editor, have complaint as to the action, or rather want of action, of our County Supervisors Application has been made to them for the establishing of an election precinct here, and also for appointment of justice of the peace, if such appointment can be made by them before election. It would be great convenience to this camp, if the Supervisors would take decided steps in supplying the needs of the camp and dis trict, as to an election district and justice of the peace We hope you will call their attention to the matter as simple justice.
 Rumors of Indians are atloat here, but no credit is given reports, nor the slightest uneasiness felt. Very truly, II. T.

The NOstiIes.

From Lieutenant Ducst. oi the Third Cavalry, who arrived in town yesterday from Fort Grant, we learn that the out break at San Carlos, reported in our telegraph dispatches a few days ago, was not overdrawn. The hostiles attacked McMillanville, and were only repulsed after a stubborn fight when they retreated in the direction of Salt river valley. Col
 Shafter, commanding the district, took speedy and effective measures for the protection Of settlers, and to prevent general outbreak. Troops were drawn from Forts Apache, Bowie, Thomas, Grant, Mcdowell and Hua- chuca, and concentrated at the sub. agency of the San Carlos Reservation. The troops concentrated at that po,nt make quite formidable showing, footing up eighteen companies of Cavalry and bat tallion of Infantry. Col. Shafter will com mand the brigade in person and is only awaiting orders from the Department Com. mander to proceed on the trail of the rene- gades. Lieut.. Ducat has a high opinion of the efficiency and military skill of Col
 Shatter, and is inclined to think that if he is allowed to act on his own impulses he will make short work of the reneg ades
