Troubles in Arizona --Another Massacre.--A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican, writing from Tucson, Arizona, under date of the 25th ult., furnishes the following particulars of the latest massacre: Last evening a party returned who had gone out to the aid of several persons en route for Fort Breckinridge. Intelligence had reached us the day previously that the party, consisting of six men, in charge of an ox-wagon laden with provisions, had been attacked and routed. Four of the men had come in, each giving a different account as to the number of Indians, and all ignorant of the fate of the missing men. The scout of citizens which went out from here found the remains of the wagon at the spot indicated. The road at that point runs along a ridge, upon one side of which is a precipitate bank. They there found eighteen holes in the ground, which had been dug by the Indians as hiding places, and as the wagon approached they were enabled to fire upon them without being

The two Americans in front, as ascertained by following their trail, were both wounded, and their horses taking fright, ran down the precipitous bank, and kept along the ravine several hundred yards, when the horsemen halted, as is supposed, unable to ride further. The body of one, John Page, was found on this spot. The blankets, pistol and knife of his companion were also found, but he and his horse were both missing.
