Gen. Crooks Successful Expedi
ton.

Tucson ARIZONA, June IA cou.
rier arrived at Tombstone last night
from Crooks headquarters, at Silver
Greek, Arizona, bringing official in.
formation of Crooks expedition. 1t
left American soil the third of May,
marching 200 miles southeast from
San Bernardino to the boundary line
of chihuahua and Sonora, following
a trail of the hostiles. Crook was
guided by an Apache; named Madas-
XII, who was captured near San Car
los just previous to the expeditions
departure. At a point of about 200
miles south Of the line the command
crossed the Sierra Madres range, adj
vanced so miles over an indescr badly
rough trail, eight mules being killed
by falling over precipices, and pressed
on without delay. The men were
rendered nearly barefoot by the sharp
rocks.
THE INDIANS SURPRISED.
After IA days hard marching, day
and night, the Indian camps of Chato
and Bonito were discovered in the
heart Of the Sierra Madres, in an al
most impregnable position. The
Apaches did net dream Of an attack,
for the entrance to the stronghold
was next to impossible, and the war
riors were principally out on a rade
under Juh, only thirty.seven bucks
being in camp with the women and
children The San Carlos scouts
under Capt. Crawford and Lieut.. At
wood and Micsey Free, and chiefs of
the scouts, surrounded the camp be-
fore the hostiles were aware of their
proximity. They advanced from dif>
ferent points. The scouts secreted
themselves behind the rocks and com.
menced firing upon the camps, crea.
ting perfect panic. A number sue
ceeded in escaping, though nearly all
surrendered Seven were found dad
in the camp, and five Mexican ON IN
and little girl we're recaptured.
They were taken from Carmen and
chihuahua, and are now with Crook,
in good health. Everything in the
camp was burned or carried off by
the scouts, Among the property
captured were 100 ponies and mules,
40 being loaded with plumber, sad,
dies, girdles, clothes, gold and silver
watches, and several thousand dollars
of gold and silver and greenbacks,
showing that the Indians had been
very successful in their raids.

shonld reasonable men complain. simply
because the vote cast isnot of their way of
thinking?
To the cOlored race, we would say be
patient under trial. Demonstrate by your
course that not even the severest persecu-
ton, can tempt you to compromise the
conservative character you have won. Go
on in the even tenor of your way, keeping
strictly within the law. and the time Will
come, when the few political agitators who
would stir up race strife vii! be regarded
as public pests. and not the opponents OF
the sentiment of party OF a community.
Strive to do your duty as citiZens-culti-
vate habits of industry and sobriety-ac-
cumulate property as much as your linz
tied means will allow, and continue in the
conservative, law-abiding course you have
observed and all will come right in the end.
The Right never yet wanted friends,
and thousands of men who. have never yet
acted with the poll. ical party you support,
| will recognize the duty Of conceding your
lawful demands, and defending you from
the ill-considered and ill-tempered TRADE
of few political adventures, who care
for nothing but selfish gain, even II to ac-
complish that, they should dlsturbthe har-
mony and quiet of community and infiict
/ a lasting harm on the Commonwealth.

The election in Virginia, for one-haif Of
the State Senate and a full House of Dele
gates, resulted in the triumph of the Dem
ocrats over the Coalition party. AS the
Senators chosen will take part iii the cleo
tion of II United States Senator in 1856 to
succeed Malone, whose term expires in
1857. the result has an interesting bearing
III addition to that which attaches to the
immediate defeat of the Coalition party.
IN massachusetts,, Butler, the democratic
candidate for Governor. was defeated by
Robinson, republican. The Legislature
remains republican, as was expected. Con-
Ivy Oh 5,l2i for Governor i'll 1882, voted
Tuesday for half the Senate and a full
House OF Delegates. The last Legislature
was republican, however, and the result of
tuesdays election does not change its
complexion. New York, which gave 1eT
600 democratic majority last wear. tnrns
up republican once more. The State Sen.
ators chosen will participate in the cleo.
ton OF L. ). Senator to succeed I.apham

The last Legislature was democratic by

in the Legislature. The result is of inter-
est only for it's possible bearing on the
Presidential contest. Mississippi went
democratic as usual. and Minnesota and
Nebraska republican. The general result
as indicated in New York, Pennsylvania
and Connecticut, leaves the Presidential
prospects OF the democratic party still in
doubt. and their hopes of controlling the
United States Senate in 1855 somewhat d-
minished.

The day before the election Gov. Cam
eron, on the requisition Of the authorities
Of Danville sent the Richmond Light In
fantry Rifles and a section Of the Rich
mond Howitzers to that city to I've pres
at the polling of the vote on Tuesday. The
Governors instructions to Major Carter
were that he should report to the mayor
and city sergeant of Danylile and aid them
in enforcing the laws of the State and pro-
tecting life and property of all citizens in
that town without regard to race or class
and to disperse all riotous persons on the
streets. Major Carter and the men under
his command left Monday night on spe-
cial train on the Danville road at II
O'Clock. They reached their destination
Tuesday morning before the polls were
opened in Danville. Gov. Cameron had
been considering the propriety of sending
these troops to that place all day Monday.
He was induced to take this step by the
representations of the mayor and sergeant
OF Danville that not only the military but
other citizens were on the streets of that
city armed. Under the instructions from
the Executive no one but the military and
the regularly authorized police were per-
mitted to appear on the streets with arms.

The history of the negro, since enamel
patton has been the wonder of the world.
Not only since emancipation, but during
the internicene conflict, when his freedom
OF his slavery was the issue, his loyalty and
grand proportions as to invoke the graft
tude Of all hearts, and presented a specta-
Gle of sublime unselfshness unparalleled in
the tide of time. With no other race
was there ever shown such fealty to trust,
under such trying circumstances. AS a
class, since his freedom was assured, the
negro has simply accepted the situation,
gone on in the even tenor of his way. ask
ing for nothing that the law protests, but
frequently submitting to less than it de-
mands. His freedom was boon, his citi-
zenship boon-the free gift of the ma
ton, without his imploration. and without
his effective agency. The privileges it
confers he has sought to enjoy, and no
more, and in doing this has confined him.
self to the limits of the law and the de-
mands Of organized society.
The negro is here to stay. He is here to
stay as citizen-as a political factor, like
any other citizen-as an element in the in
dustrial and social organism, and this fact
has to be recognized and faced. When he has
shown nothing but conservatism in these
relations for the past twenty years. is it
is it christian duty, to rail
against him and denOunce and malign him
because he exercises legally the rights the
laws give him? AS We have shown his
acts politically have all been in the inter-
est of wise reforms and wholesome laws.
And whether he acts with one party or
the other, when such are the results, ;
