Interesting from Arizona.--The Los Angeles Star of June 15th has the following particulars of the news lately referred to in the Union:
By the arrival of Kerr and Lloyd in Los Angeles this week, from Arizona, we have information from that country. We regret to have to state that the Apache Indians seem to have control of the Territory, and that neither person nor property is safe therein. From Lloyd we have heard the particulars of several outrages which have occurred there lately, differing in important particulars from accounts formerly published. It appears that the United States mail cannot pass through the country. From here it was stopped at Pimos villages; and coming, at the other side of Apache Pass.
[accounts of several people killed by Indians]
It appears that Fort Buchanan is now at the mercy of the Indians, who lately charged through the fort, stealing the picket ropes. The troops, who appeared to be without a commander, ran out, disorganized, but afterwards turned back. It is said that Lieutenant Bascom, who went out some months since with Johnny Ward to recover a boy who had been stolen by the Apaches, made promises to them which he was unwilling or unable to perform, and the Apaches have since, in revenge, killed over twenty Americans, who are now buried in the Pass.
Seneca Snodgrass was coming from Fort Breckinridge in Tucson, in company with a man named McLean, known as "Yuma"; the Indians attacked and killed Snodgrass, while the other, who associates with Indians, was permitted to pass unharmed. We understand Snodgrass has a brother in the upper country. It is said that Indians are hung up along the road. Sutton's station has been abandoned. The Pima Indians are also becoming disaffected. The stock of goods at the villages, belong to the Overland Mail Company, was sold out to Neville & McKenzie about a month since. The Indians shortly after attacked the house, and helped themselves to everything--amounting to about $1,500.
