LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

Warlike.—Yesterday afternoon sixty mounted men of the First Cavalry, covered with dust and burning for glory, arrived here from Camp McDermit. They are commanded by Captain Wagner and Lieutenant Norton. They left McDermit at 3 o'clock A. M. Tuesday morning, and both horses and men being fatigued they remained here last night. They camped on the other side of the river above the bridge, and to prevent the men from coming to town and getting on a spree a sentinel armed with a loaded carbine and revolver was stationed on the bridge and allowed none of the troops to cross without a pass from the officers. The camp had a war-like appearance, with troops, horses, wagons and accoutrements, and about sundown a bugle blast summoned those who were in town to quarters. This morning at 4 o'clock the command broke camp, loaded their horses, and leaving their wagons here, left for the East on a special train they were cheered as they left the depot and responded with a bugle blast.
