THE EXILED BISHOP OF HAVANA.
Arrival in New York Acconnt of III Et
pulsion Arrogance of the Cuban Voluu
teers. The steamship Missouri arrived yesterday
from Havana, with a larpe nnmber of passea-
f;ers, anion; whom was Blbhop Martinez, of
(avana, accompanied by bis secretary, Abbe
Partu, who left this port a fortnight ago to take
charge of his diocese. On the 13th instant he
arrived at Havana, duly farni6hed with Episco
pal authorities from the Cabinet at Madrid, bnt
was refused permission to go ashore.
Bishop Mnrtinez states that he was ordained
Bit-hop of Havana in 1804, and was accused of
favoring the insurrection because he desired to
regard all his flock with equal solicitude. He
was on intimate terms with Captain-General
Dnlce, but was disliked by Lcreundi Dulco's
sncceseor because he refused to have the
church bells ruDg In any cities or villages which
Lersnndi might enter, this being an honor only
accorded to an archbishop or bishop.
Bishop Martinez obeyed the summons to at
tend the (Ecumenical Council, and at its close
remained some time at Marseilles, whence he
he came via Paris and Liverpool to Boston. On
leading that he was en route to Havana, the
Ppanish authorities there communicated with
Madrid on the subject, and orders were, sent
tbf m to take the votes of the voluuteer com
manders as to whether he should be allowed to
land. This was done, and seven out of ten
voted against allowing him to enter Cuba.
On arriving at Havana the Bishop was in
formed by one of the Captain-General's aides-de-camp
that if he would remain in Cuba he
must go on hoard the frigate Saragossa, where
he would be treated as a prisoner. He demanded
this intimation in writing, when the aid with
drew and did not return. The next visit he re
ceived was from the chief the municipality,
who was barely civil. The Bishop made the
same request to him, and with the same result.
He then addressed a formal protest to Captain
General Valmaseda. Numbers of the clergy
aLd laity came on board and sympathized with
him. Finding that he could not land except
as a prisoner, he returned in the Missouri to this
city.
Bishop Martinez says he will not return to
Cuba by permission of the military who rule
that island; and that he learned that placards
were posted In Havana, wherein the volunteers
declared they would walk over his body before
they would allow him to enter the city. A
quibble was raised on account of his passport
not being countersigned In New York; but it
was too palpably a pretext to deserve any con
sideration.. Y. Tribune, to-day.
INDIAN ATROCITIES.
The Bloody A pitches The Condition of
Attn I is lit Arizona.
A correspondent of the New York Journal of
Commerce, writing from Tucson, Arizona Terri
tory, March 20, says:
I beg of you, for the sake of suffering huma
nity, to allow me to make a few statements con
cerning the deplorable situation la which the
people of this unfortunate Territory find them
selves at this time, owing to the inability of our
Government to protect us from the Apache
savages.
Within the last three years we have bad not
one day of peace, and for the last six months
scarcely one hour has passed that some citizen
has not been butchered bv the Apaches. We,
of course, look to our Government for protec
tion, but, instead of getting it, we have got
nothing but promises until within the last six
months, when our new commanding officer
was sent out to take command of thU depart
ment, with orders to make his headquarters
somewhere lu the lerritory; but, for some
cause, not known to any person but himself, he
makes a flying trip through the Territory, re
ports everything quiet, goes to San raoclsco.
aud asks his superior to aliow him to establish
his headquarters at Wilmington, Cat. At the
same time that be is occupied ia doing this the
Apaches have murdered more than twenty-five
men and taken property to the amount of at
least fifty thousand dollars. I have lived in this
Territory ever since it belonged to the United
States, and can safely say that at no time since
1840 have the Indians been so bad as at present
Why our Government has very sparingly ad
ministered to our wants in this lerritory we
have always been at a loss to know. We pay
our taxes, we try to earn an honest living.
and why should we not expect to be treated as
citizens of other Territories are? We demand
it as our right to be protected from Iudians, and
shall continue to do 6o.
Our Territory is not the barren desert that a
great many peop.e think it is; but, to the con
trary, is one of the finest stock raising countries
on the globe, and as for mineral wealth Arizona
cannot be surpassed. We have within fifty
miles of this town mines of gold, silver, and
copper enough to employ five thousand miners
profitably, if we had the Indians out of the way,
Would any other government on the earth (that
had the means) allow a few thousand miserable
savages to murder its citizens without doing
something to protect them (
It appears tbat our Government has come to
the conclusion that if tbev send us a few sol
diers and disbursing oltlcers and scatter a hand
ful of dollars among us, we should bo perfectly
satisfied. This is a mistake. We do not ask for
money. W e ask for the Indians to be Utkeu out
of the country, and we will find the money for
the job, aud plenty of it too. If the Indians
were driven hence, we would be satisfied to take
our chances fur the rest.
FIR IS AT NEWARK, DEL.
Storehouse aud Post Office Eurued.
About three o'clock yesterday morning a fire
broke out in the storehouse occupied by John
I). Richardson, at Newark, Del., which, not

Dakotah Legislature.
Canton. Dakotah. April 11. A spnclal session of
the Legislature convened on Tuesday was brought
to a sudden cneck just as rne most important busi
ness was concluded. A despatch had been reselvad
by Governor Burbank on that day from Secretary
Fish which read: "The Attorney General la of the
opinion tnat tne special session is authorized." it is
ascertained to-day that the despatch should have
read "unauthorized. " The error was traced to
some otllce between Sioux City and Chicago. Bo-
fore the second despatch came a bill had passed both
nouses ana signed dj tne uovernor, aatnorizing
counties ana townships to vote a tax in aid oi rail
roads. As the session was held In good faith the
sender of It Is supposed was favorable to the oplulon.
It Is Is probable that Congress will legalises the action
when appealed to.
