General Miles, it is said, has got his plans into shape and intends to push the campaign into the enemy's country. Captain Lawton, the her culean officer, who was McKenz'e's favorite, crossed the line this week at Nogales, with So picked infantry and 20 Apache scouts. He IS well pro vided with all the necessaries, and has ample means to purchase whatever he may need m Mexico. He IS given earte 6lanrhe as to expenditures. Hts orders are to follow Geronimo's trail, even though it takes him to the Gulf of Mexico. He may be gone six months or more, DO limit of time having been made. Captain Lawton also takes with him some members of the Signal Service Corps. The helio- graph signal service is found to work very well, although it IS not yet brought to perfection. A message was sent in this manner, few days ago, a distance of one hundred and fifty miles in few hours.

JEFF DAVIS, TIFF TRAITOR.

The ridiculous spectac'e has heen presented to the people of the United States, of that arch traitor Jtf Davis, senile old rebel that he is, slobbering over his veromous treason to the peo- pie of Alabama and elsewhere-at Albany, Georgia, he had this to say. "I always tried to do my d Ity, and if the people of the south think l did my duty, am satisfied, and l don't care what the Ymkees sav. have nothing to ask from them, not even a pardon, for he who seeks pardon must profess repentance. l have not re- pented. The only thing l am sorry for is that we did not succeed. ," This murderer of thousands of the citizens of the United States should be stopped short in his reasonable utteranCes, and the old double dyed iraltot, murderer and perjurer, made to under- stand that treason is odious, and thal traitors have no home or friendI among the people Of America.

GOVERNOR ZULICK has made mum. Ter of charges against the territorial insane asylum commissioners of which Commissioner Hon. NJ. w. Stewart, of thls place, IS a member. Mir. Stew art chaiacterizes the governors action as high handed political movement, for the purpose of ousting out the present commissioners. Mir. Stewart was cited to appear at Prescott on May 9th, to answer the charges, but as he did not receive the citation un- til May 4th, il would have been an impossibility for him to be at Prescott on that date. He says that he and lis fellow commissioners court the fullest investigation into their conduct of the affairs of the asylum, and will answer all charges that are made against them in formal legal manner. ----.ScYldpssfe,uJS Sfofkmaz,
