FROM THE FRONTIER.
The Apaches on the Warpath-The
Crows UnaaRY


Tucson, A. T., Aug. 1.-THE Stars
Mexican advices from Magdalena, Sono-
IA, of the 18th say the Apaches contin-
ue their raids in the vicinity of Ures. a
band of from 20 to 100 are now raiding
in the Sonora river valley. A number in
the valley were killed last week. Over
100 have been killed in the vicinity of
Ures in the past month.
DROWNED.
A Star special from Bowie says par
ty OF six smuggIers with forty pack ami
mails encamped for the night in a can

scattered along the canyon the next
morning.
MUST LEAVE THE AGENCY BY OCTOBER.
OMAHA, Aug. 1.-THE commanding
officer at Fort Robinson telegr Aphed TO
army headquarters here that he had dis
patches from Indian Agent McGilli-
cuddy, at Pine Ridge agency, to the
effect that Red Cloud has notified him
that he must leave the agency by Qcto-
Der 1st. The agent also informed the
commissioner OF Indian affairs that Red
Cloud had been suilen ever since he was
deposed from the chieftainship of the
Sioux by General Crook. For this rea-
son Agent McGillicuddy deposed him
of the craftsmanship of his own band
1000 Sioux Indians at Pine Ridge and
1000 at Rosebud agency. In case OF an
outbreak there will be about 5000 war
ioFs available.
THE CIR lwS
il is stated are also uneasy, and some of
them are off their reservations on preda-
tory scouts.
The dissatisfaction is believed to be
instIgated by Red Cloud, whom McGil-
licuddy deposed from the craftsmanship
of the tribe at Pine Ridge last year.
The Indians can muster 1000 to 5000
warriors IN case Of an outbreak. 1t is
believed, however, that Gen. Crook has
great influence with them, and he will
probably visit the agency for council
before going to Arizona.

brought back to the presence OF
their Maker. The Christian world
deems all to utter destruction, to
eternal death, to eternal punish
ment, because they may have died
without knowledge of Christ. The
saints believe all will have the
privilege of hearing the principles
of salvation IN the spirit world, and
be given the opportunity for en-
bracing them, when all may be
judged according to the light they
have, and their works. The good
and the evil were set before all, and
each was permitted to choose, that
he might be judged righteously.
The light has come into the earth
through Joseph Smith, and
it would be spread until a
had an opportunity for seeing 1T.
No power can stay that light. Let
the world prosecute, despise, enact
unconstitutional laws, and the mOIe
earnest it is in persecution, the more
will it fail, and the more the work
of God roll forth. The speaker
feared being let alone more than he
did all the efforts against the saints,
for if left to themselves there would
be danger of relapsing into upright
eousness and the pits from which
they were dug, until they would be
unable to distinguish difference be-
tween the saints and the people of
the world. The hatred of the ma
ton kept the saints diligent and
faithful in their duties anu require
ments. Persecution binds them to-
gether, and stirs them to remember
their covenants, and draw them to-
wards each other. AS long as the
world will hate and prosecute the
saints they will feel inspired to do
the will Of God, and the speaker
believed the Lord will permit per-
secution until his people see eye to
eye and become faithful and right
eOus. 1t was necessary that Christ
should be prosecuted, for so it had
been decreed, but it had been woe
unto them by whom the Oifense
came. SO it would be in respect to
the saints. They must be perse-
cuted, but woe unto them who per-
Secute them, without cause; judg-
ments will be poured out upon them
and they will be made to suffer the
consequences of their acts.

HoNoRs TO HuRLRuTs MEMORY.

Senor Elmore, the Peruvian Minister, accom-
panied by Secretary Frelinghuysen, called upon
the President few days ago, and presented an
autograph letter from Admiral Montero the
President of Peru, expressing the grief Of the
government and people of that country at the
death of Minister Hurlbut, and their sincere
sympathy with the Government and people Of
the United States. The letter, which bears
date OF Huarcz, April 6, warmly eulogizes the
late Minister and refers to lin as, in the esti-
nation of the Peruvians, 'the truest and
noblest champion of Peru's cause, which is the
cause of right and justice" In presenting the
letter, Senor Elmore spoke with much feeling
of the services which General Hurlbut had
rendered to his country. The President, in
reply, expressed his qualification that the
country in which General Hurlbut performed
his last work had been pleased to commend
him so graciOusly, and he assured Minister
Elmoro of his appreciation of the action, and
promised that reply should be sent at an
early day to President MonterO. The presenta-
tiOn of this Icttcr Of coincidence happened, by
a noticeable coincidence, to take place at the
anniversary of General Hurlbuts confirmation
as Minister to Peru.

A GIFT FOR MRS. GARFIELD.

The Clarified dress" is now on exhibition
by Philadelphia firm. 1t is handsome
black brocade, produced under the supervision
of the Womcn's Silk Culture Association, the
silk being from fourteen States of the Union
by twenty-six families. 1t was manufactured
by Hami & Boothe, of Paterson, n. j., and
contains in its width, twenty-eight thousand
threads of silk. 1t requires three thousand
six hundred needles in the Jacquard loom to
form the original and striking design of the
brocadc This is the first brocade ever made
in America of American silk. The cocoons
were grown by the WOmen's Silk Culture AS
sociation and spun on a reel that is Yam
kee" invention. The Garfield dress, probably
the heaviest in texture of any brocade ever
woven, will doubtless be an interesting object
to the ladies especially. 1t is not only tho
ladies, however, that it will concern. Az event
of this kind is Il landmark to the advance of
American industry. Silk culture. although
the youngest branch, is growing rapidly, and
Offering pleasant, interesting and remuncra-
tive employment for American women.

Importance made by Union troops into rebel
territory. He was brevetted major general
